16 New teammates and using a "Random" invitation card.

Warning: This chapter is filled with edginess and 8th Grade Syndrome.

You've been warned.

---------------------------x------------------------x------------------------

Kosuke was standing near the street lamp in the city center's crowded crossroads, leaning on the public bench.

Today, he was wearing a black-Uchiha trench coat with a bag on his back.

Relaxing slightly, he looked at the sky and talked to himself, "Didn't they told me to wait here? Why aren't they here yet?"

Today is Monday and the day when he is supposed to meet his apparent. "Team-manager" and his supposed "Teammates."

As per the Chunin exams' rules, a three-person team must be handled by a manager who has passed the Chunin exam at least once.

Not wanting to wait, he took out his Stark-phone and dialed the manager's number.

Just as he was about to call, he sensed a Jonin level Chakra moving towards his direction with extreme speed.

But feeling no malicious intent from the figure, Kosuke relaxed his vigilance slightly and looked at the empty air in front of him.

*Swoosh*

With a swirl of leaves, three distant figures appeared in front of him. On the right, there is a boy with red hair and blue eyes; squatting on the ground, controlling his vomiting.

In the middle of the trio, a man with a muscular build and white eyes was standing. He was the one to bring the other duo using Shunshin. Unlike the red-hair boy's near-Kage level chakra, this man has a Jonin level and sharp chakra.

And the last person is a woman with black-hair and black-eyes. Her face was sharp and beautiful, while her every movement was elegant. Unlike the boy, she did not feel anything from Shunshin; she has experienced this before.

"So, everyone's here." The man smiled at Kosuke and apologized, "Sorry to make you wait. There was a slight mistake in the location."

Kosuke nodded blankly and focused his eyes on the red-haired boy.

Sensing his gaze, the red-haired boy gave a sunny smile and stretched out his hands.

"Hello, My name is Uzumaki Kasai. I hope that we have a pleasant time together." Kasai stretched his hands for a handshake to which, Kosuke followed.

Kosuke nodded at this and greeted in return.

"Me too. My name is Kosuke Uchiha." Kosuke then looked at the other people, asking them to introduce themselves with his gaze.

Knowing his gaze, the man came forward and introduced himself.

"Hello, I am Shintoshi Hyuga, and for this exam, I will be your team manager."

Kosuke and Kasai nodded at his introduction and looked at the only female member in the team.

Feeling their gaze, she also came forward and introduced herself."

"I am Sayuri Uchiha."

Just like other Uchiha, except some fools, She introduced herself in the minimum words possible.

'Oh! An Uchiha!' Kosuke thought and realized something, 'Wait, Aren't I an Uchiha too?'

After their introductions, Most of them did not talk much. Only Kasai and the manager were trying to lighten the mood with their conversations.

They walked towards the Shinobucks Café and sat on the corner seats, where only not-so-suspicious ninja-like 8th graders seat and share information.

I mean, why, even if your conversation contents are confidential, why the fuck would you sit in such suspicious places?

Why can you sit in the normal-seats and play your ninja-games? At least, It will not look suspicious.

Anyways, I am not usually the one that handles liberating them from their stupidity.

Those people are primarily found in France.

On their way, Kosuke used his recently-gained overpowered ability on his teammates.

[Observe!]

[Name: Shintoshi Hyuga.]

[Level: Mid-Jonin.] [Favorability: 64 (Good impression.)]

[Background: Shintoshi is a member of Hyuga's prominent family and son of the elders. He is a level-5 Shinobi in the Association and an official Jonin.…. (Kosuke ignored some useless parts.)]

[Famous Quotes (According to fans):

"─So, Kosuke, have you wondered what would happiness looked like when it is given a physical form?"

"No? Let me answer."

"To me, happiness might resemble glass. Even if you don't usually notice it, it is still there."

"You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light."]

[Current thoughts: "­─Maybe I should use that dialogue, which I read in the ancient books about the ninja way, to impress these children? What was that book called, Ah, It was [The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy ninja.]"]

"…" Kosuke.

Kosuke looked at the information blankly and thought, 'Do you consider yourself Master Oogway?'

He looked at his manager and thought:

'No way in the hell, Who is the author of my story? I want to ask,─ why are you so Edgy?'

He shook his head and looked at the information of his other teammates.

First, he focused on the Uchiha girl, while he nearly forgot that he is also an Uchiha.

[Observe!]

[Name: Sayuri Uchiha.]

[Level: High-Chunin] [Favorability: 75 (She thinks that you're handsome.)]

[Background: Sayuri Uchiha is one of the rising geniuses in the Uchiha clan. Due to her talent, she is voted by the family to be the fiancée of the next Patriarch. (Which is not known to her or others in the clan.)…]

[Famous Quotes (According to fans):

"Is it just me, or do you have a fascination with death? And, should I be worried about this?" (To Kasai Uzumaki.)]

[Current thoughts: "So, that's the fourth son of the Patriarch, Is he strong?"]

'Oh, Finally someone with common sense…' Kosuke nodded in approval, but after reading her current thoughts, he sighed mentally, '…But, She's a battle maniac.'

'But, no matter what, I have to remind the second brother about her. I don't want my teammates to be my future sister-in-law. That would be shameful.'

Kosuke smiled wryly and finally looked towards the brash Uzumaki guy.

[Observe!]

[Name: Kasai Uzumaki]

[Level: Low-Genin (Chakra: Peak-Jonin.)] [Favorability: 70 (Friend)]

[Background: Kasai Uzumaki is an orphan (like every other Uzumaki.) Because of being alone since childhood, he values his friends, which is also his major weakness. Due to unknown reasons, even unknown to himself, he could participate in the Chunin exams.]

[Famous Quotes (According to fans):

"The world is diverse. Everyone has strength, weakness, or has everything or nothing."

"But, to me, everything is diminished. It's like there is nothing for me to do here. Well… except admiring beautiful people, of course."]

[Current thought: "I wonder what Sayuri-chan's three sizes are? Is her's bigger than Matron's?"]

"…"

'Are you a reincarnation of Jiraya, the ero-sage?'

'Very, well, I must applaud your courage.' Kosuke looked at Kasai blankly and continued in his mind, 'You even dared to make thoughts on that demoness, don't you fear death?'

After reading his team's information, Kosuke knows that what Kasai is about to do is pure stupidity and foolishness.

'It seems that my entire team is filled with troublesome peoples, Even I am included.'

Forget it. Let's check the situation on the chat group.

….

[Dimensional Chat Group.]

[ [I can change your name]: @ninja, It's time for you to use the invitation card.]

[ [I am Batman]: You promised that you would use it after the first mission.]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: …I agree.]

[ [Edgy Uchiha Emo]: Did I? I don't remember. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯ ]

[ [I am Batman]: …I have never seen such a shameless person in my entire life. (speechless.jpg)]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: This time, I support @Iambatman.]

[ [I can change your name]: You promised me a chef.]

[ [I am Batman]: Chef? Who needs them? I ask the leader to add a Technology user to the group.]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: No, I request that James Bond should be added. I want to change my name.]

[ [I am Batman]: Hey, Sherlock, are you looking for a fight?]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: Whenever I look for something or someone, they are either missing or dead. ]

"…"

Silence enshrouded the group chat. For a moment, everyone stopped typing after listening to Sherlock's words.

But the next moment, the chat group exploded with messages.

[ [Edgy Uchiha Emo]: @007, Please don't look for Nemo.]

[ [I am Batman]: @007, I am sorry, Please don't look at my Iron armor.]

[ [I can change your name]: @007, Everything is fine, as long as you don't look at my Coffee Jelly. (Serious.jpg)]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: ??? ]

[ [Holmes, Sherlock Holmes]: Did I say something wrong? (puzzled.png)]

[ [Edgy Uchiha Emo]: No, no. You said nothing wrong, Sherlock.]

[ [Edgy Uchiha Emo]: Anyways, I am about to use a "Random" invitation card.]

[ [Edgy Uchiha Emo]: Get it? I said a "Random" invitation card.]

Saying this, Kosuke entered the System space and walked towards the warehouse.

After searching for the invitation card, he did not hesitate and used it directly.

At the same time, A notification rang in the chat group.

[Ding!]

[1x Invitation card is used, inviting a person from different dimensions.]

After a minute, a notification, once again, rang in the chat group.

[Ding!]

[The new member has joined successfully.]

Author here.

- So, Who should be the next member, according to the current rhythm of the story?

- Also, am I going on the right track with Kosuke's plot?

Sorry for not uploading for days.

Because I got grounded for getting low-marks in Maths, I could not concentrate on writing the chapter.

Also, I am forced to do maths.

This chapter was written sneakily.
