Shinsei arrived at an inopportune time, just during the students' break between classes.
If you see Shinsei elsewhere in the village, you might just say hello.
Inside the Ninja Academy, once someone takes the lead in surrounding them, others will immediately follow suit, and Shinsei will be surrounded.
The girls, in particular, completely forgot about being shy and frantically pushed their way into the crowd, holding pens, paper, or backpacks, asking Shinsei to sign them.
Even Shinsei, who was known for his speed, was now unable to move an inch. He could only smile as he took the paper and pen handed to him and filled in his name.
As a girl, Moegi doesn't have a direct understanding of the power of ninjas, or rather, her attention isn't focused on that.
But looking at Shinsei surrounded by students, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! The teacher is so popular!"
Konohamaru quickly stepped forward, pushed through the crowd, pulled Shinsei out, and shouted:
"Make way! Don't push. The teacher is here to pick us up!"
Konohamaru's words had some effect; he is still a bully at the Ninja Academy.
Shinsei thus seized this opportunity to escape.
The four crossed the street and arrived at an empty training ground.
Shinsei said, "Alright, it seems you all know me, so I don't need to introduce myself."
"That's too perfunctory, teacher. We don't know you very well yet," Moegi said, dissatisfied.
"My name is Shinsei. As for what I like? I don't really have any particular favorites."
However, I like to sleep in late. As for other things, I don't need to say more. If you don't know much about them, you can ask around; it's also a test of your intelligence-gathering skills.
Although I've seen your information, please introduce yourselves.
Konohamaru said, "Hello, teacher! I am Konohamaru, the grandson of the Third Hokage. My dream is to surpass my grandfather and Naruto, and now I have a new dream: I want to surpass you, teacher!"
"Good idea!" Shinsei nodded.
Dreams are often grand, but reality is often harsh.
This kid's dream is almost impossible to achieve. The three people he wants to surpass are, among whom the weakest is his grandfather, Hiruzen Sarutobi; Naruto is one of the saviors appointed by the Sage of Six Paths, and he himself is a transmigrator who is currently climbing towards the level of the Sage of Six Paths.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Konohamaru will never realize this dream.
Moegi then said, "Hello, Mr. Shinsei! My name is Moegi..."
Udon also introduced himself.
Shinsei said, "Alright, now that we know each other, it's almost time for dinner."
As your team leader, I've decided to treat you to a meal first! What would you like to eat? Ichiraku Ramen or Yakiniku Q?
Moegi jumped up excitedly, raising her little fist. "Great! Teacher! My tummy has been growling for ages!"
Konohamaru asked in confusion, "Sensei, don't we have to fight over the bells?"
Shinsei replied with a smile, "The bell-grabbing test was originally meant to test whether team members could work together and help each other. Now that you know about the bell-grabbing test, it has lost its meaning."
I've seen your information. You grew up together, so I believe you still have this spirit of unity and mutual assistance.
Konohamaru nodded, his face full of admiration, and said, "As expected of you, teacher! Your ideas are indeed superior to mine!"
Shinsei smiled but didn't say anything. The kid who wouldn't let Tsunade into the Hokage's office back then seemed to have completely changed now.
Konohamaru wanted to choose Ichiraku Ramen to save his teacher money, but Shinsei had already noticed that Moegi and Udon couldn't take their eyes off Yakiniku Q when they passed by. So he decisively chose this place.
As soon as they entered the barbecue restaurant, Shinsei immediately stopped the three students from cheering.
It wasn't that he was worried about disturbing any customers, but rather that two of his acquaintances— Shikamaru and Temari— were sitting in a corner of the Yakiniku Q!
Haha, they were secretly dating here and got caught by me.
Shinsei gestured for the three people to go to the table and order first, while he walked to the corner and cast a Transformation Technique.
Suddenly, a chubby boy appeared around the corner.
Shinsei touched his body and felt there were no flaws.
She bought a bag of potato chips from the barbecue restaurant, and while eating them, she walked to the corner where Shikamaru and Temari were.
" Shikamaru! You ate barbecue without inviting me!"
Shikamaru was talking to Temari and didn't notice anyone approaching.
Suddenly, Choji's voice rang out beside him, startling him.
Shikamaru and Temari's faces flushed red instantly.
" Choji... you... you have to let me explain!"
Shikamaru, who is usually very articulate, started to stutter and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Choji, munching on potato chips, looked at Shikamaru and said, "I'll listen to your explanation. Explain yourself. Why didn't you invite me to the barbecue?"
"I just... I just..." Shikamaru glanced at Temari beside him, but couldn't finish the sentence.
Choji Earth Flow over to them, looked Shikamaru in the eye, and asked, "Alright, I know you two are on a date!"
Upon hearing this, both of their faces turned even redder. " Choji " continued, "Then let me ask you, which is more important, your brothers or your woman?"
Shikamaru was stunned by those words. He was just thinking about how to answer when he suddenly realized that Choji would never ask such a question.
"Who are you?"
Shikamaru went up and tugged at Choji's sleeve.
No matter how realistic the Transformation Technique is, it is still ultimately Chakra conversion, and the original form will be revealed as soon as you exert any force.
Choji nimbly rolled over, dodging Shikamaru's pull, and continued, " Shikamaru, you have no conscience! You didn't even choose your brother!"
Shikamaru looked at " Choji " and asked in confusion, "Kiba? Naruto?"
Suddenly, his gaze fell upon three little ones ordering food at the other table.
" Shinsei! It's you!"
Shinsei laughed heartily and deactivated his Transformation Technique: "Well, Shikamaru, you were secretly going on a date behind our backs! Tell me! When did you get her?"
Temari on the table, saying, "What do you mean he defeated him? Couldn't it have been me who defeated him!"
Shinsei gave Temari a thumbs-up.
Shikamaru always seemed lazy and uninterested in anything.
If I hadn't read the original novel, Shinsei would have thought he didn't like women.
Just as Shinsei was about to say goodbye and leave, Temari grabbed Shinsei sleeve:
"Don't run! When are you going to return my brother?"
"Your brother is doing a mission these days. He'll be back after he finishes."
Temari asked suspiciously, "Really? You're not kidding me, are you?"
Temari couldn't quite believe it. Every time she asked Shinsei, he would always say to wait a little longer. And two years passed.
But now, hearing him suddenly say that his younger brother was coming back, she couldn't believe it was true.
"Yes, your brother won't need to hide anymore."
