A Fortunate One Is Chosen

"Boom..."

A massive fireball, under intense wind pressure.

The fire intensified, and the scorching heat was enough to make anyone's face pale.

The massive Rashomon, still radiating an astonishingly high temperature, was once again submerged, though its heat was continuously dissipating.

Although the coordination wasn't very smooth, it couldn't be considered a true composite Ninjutsu.

But they had already achieved their goal, making Rashomon red-hot once again.

"Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!"

Hinata her strength there.

He unleashed another powerful attack.

"Clang!!" The already alarmingly collapsed Rashomon seemed about to be smashed open.

The collapse was shocking.

"I'm in, Ino!"

In an instant--

It absorbed some of Naruto's Chakra to replenish its own energy.

Ino Choji, Shikamaru Shadow Garment had been enlarged, and was thrown out with all her might using Partial Multi-Size Technique.

"Call..."

Her gaze was stern.

His tightly clenched right fist instantly unleashed an astonishing Chakra.

It slammed into Rashomon, delivering the final blow.

"Unrivaled Superhuman Strength!"

"When!!"

"Boom... Boom..."

The vast Rashomon, in the end, could no longer hold up.

It was pierced through hard.

"Yeah--"

"Yoho--"

"That's amazing, Ino!!"

"We finally broke through!!"

"That's amazing, Ino!!!"

"Well done!!"

The Rashomon was breached...

A group of students from Class 3A.

They were all overjoyed and filled with excitement.

"Ino, you're getting better and better!"

Sakura Haruno looked on with genuine envy.

"Hehe..." Ino squinted her crescent-shaped eyes, not showing any smugness, but smiling as she said, "This is all thanks to everyone!"

"And Hinata also contributed a lot!"

Ino understood perfectly.

If it weren't for Hinata's relentless attacks...

She wouldn't break down this incredibly solid Rashomon so easily.

"That's amazing!"

"They actually broke through..."

"Such teamwork is truly worthy of the heirs of the Nara Clan!"

Even Iruka and Mizuki, the Chunin teachers, couldn't help but gape in astonishment.

Some were quite amazed.

"Everyone, you did a fantastic job..."

Looking at these excited students.

Taking a deep breath, Iruka stepped forward, brimming with excitement. "As your teacher, I am so proud of you!"

"At the same time, I must apologize to you, because before, I even thought it was impossible for you to do it..."

"This is my dereliction of duty. It shows that I, as a teacher, do not understand or trust my students enough. I am very sorry, please forgive me!"

As he spoke.

He took it very seriously.

He bowed deeply to the students of Class 3A present at the scene.

"Don't say that, Iruka-sensei!"

"We've never blamed you!"

"Yes, we'll feel embarrassed if you do that!"

"Please don't say that..."

He apologized to Iruka upon meeting him.

Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino, and the others present were all somewhat at a loss.

They were just eight or nine-year-old children, and while they felt embarrassed, they were also filled with pride and a sense of accomplishment.

Apologize to the students.

This is not unacceptable to Iruka.

Looking at the spirited Naruto, Sasuke, Ino, and the others in front of him.

He said with a smile, "Then, next up is drawing lots!"

"After all, only one student can receive Rikuto's reward!"

"To ensure fairness, I, the teacher, will personally supervise the drawing of lots... First, it must be stated that cheating using any Ninjutsu methods is strictly prohibited!"

Chapter 237 Auspiciousness and Fear

"Oh?"

Within the root base.

They sensed that the Rashomon had been broken.

Rikuto, who was deeply studying the Tag Formation with his Wood Clone, raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Did you succeed?"

"Brush!"

In an instant.

He arrived at the Ninja Academy.

He appeared before Ino, Shikamaru, Sasuke, and the others.

"Rikuto-senpai!!!"

Upon seeing the arrival of the Rikuto.

A group of girls, including Sakura Haruno.

They couldn't help but have hearts in their eyes.

My heart is racing.

"Iruka-sensei..."

Rikuto nodded to Iruka-sensei.

He glanced at the mess on the ground and understood.

That was clearly not something broken by just one or two people.

"Rikuto, they broke it together, so it should count, right?"

Iruka, smiling, asked, "I'm organizing a lottery for them. The lucky winner will either receive a reward in the game of ninjutsu or Ninjutsu!"

"Certainly!"

Rikuto smiled.

Although it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision.

But he wasn't planning to train the entire elite class.

He really wanted to see who it was that was behind this.

"There is just enough paper ball for each of you. Whoever draws the paper ball with the word 'forbearance' written on it will be today's question, right?"

Iruka brought over a cardboard box.

Dozens of pre-prepared crumpled pieces of paper were placed inside.

After shaking it a few times, I let the students come up one by one to grab it.

"No problem!"

[The opinions of those present were vulgar and uncouth.]

But whether it's Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, or others...

At this moment, they couldn't help but clench their fists, feeling somewhat nervous.

After all, Rikuto's strength is undeniable, and his Ninjutsu is incredibly powerful.

To receive guidance from the other party or learn powerful advanced Ninjutsu from them would be a dream come true.

"Then let's begin!"

Iruka had the students in Class 3A line up.

Holding the box up to them, I let them grab something from it themselves. "Don't open it yet, everyone. Let's reveal the mystery together after everyone has received theirs!"

The distribution will be completed soon.

Everyone held their breath, somewhat tense.

Sasuke Uchiha, in particular, had sweat beading on his palms.

"Everyone, you can open it now!" Iruka announced, clapping his hands.

"It has to be me..."

Naruto clutched the crumpled paper.

There they were muttering incoherently.

Sasuke, standing to the side, also had sweaty palms.

Staring wide-eyed, he intently watched the slowly unfolding crumpled paper.

Because this is about whether he can improve his strength as soon as possible and take revenge on that man.

Ino and Hinata were no exception.

It's filled with anticipation.

However--

To their disappointment...
