241 Urgent Situation

On the third day after the graduation exam, all the graduates who had signed up to join the Special Combat Division gathered in an empty classroom.

Everyone looked at each other. Most of them were in the same grade, so it didn't take long for them to run into their peers and talk with each other.

"I'm really looking forward to it. This is the Division dedicated to combat that Nagasawa-san. I hope I can get Nagasawa-san to teach me personally."

"Maybe there is a chance, but even if there is, we'll be taught in group. If you want to be taught by Nagasawa alone, you have to become his disciple."

"Nagasawa-san disciple? Now that sounds very awesome."

That Nagasawa's disciple graduated from the first grade, so there was basically no one he was familiar with among the graduates.

Although he knew some seniors, most of them were in the fourth grade, while most of the graduates were at the fifth and sixth grade.

So, Kabuto held the short Chakra blade that Nagasawa had given him and quietly waited for the people from the Special Combat Division to come.

"Ahem, hello."

A soft male's voice suddenly came from Kabuto's right.

Kabuto turned his head to look. It was a boy with a sword on his back and a purple-haired girl who seemed to be the same age as the boy.

However, what drew Kabuto's attention the most was the dark circles under the boy's eyes.

Although he was curious why this person looked sickly, Kabuto knew asking about it would sound rude. He quickly replied with a smile, "Yes?"

"Cough cough." The young man with dark circles coughed.

"Are you okay? If you are sick, you should go to Konoha hospital." Kabuto was concerned upon seeing the boy was coughing and had dark circles under his eyes.

"Hehe, thank you for your concern, but this is nothing. It's okay." Hayate Gekkō smiled.

"By the way, are you the famous Kabuto Yakushi?" The young man with dark circles asked curiously.

A talented young man who graduated in his first year had the same hair color as Kakashi who also graduated in his first year.

Because of this, the rumor of people with white hair were born a genius began to circulate.

Some people even took one of the Sannin, Jiraiya and the Second Hokage to solidify their argument.

Now this rumor has spread in Konohagakure, and it should become an urban legend in Konoha.

"I am indeed Kabuto Yakushi, but the famous is an exaggeration..." Kabuto looked a little embarrassed.

With his current strength, he would be defeated in one move if he fought with Kakashi or Midori Inuzuka.

At that level, how could he call himself the famous Kabuto Yakushi? Only someone like Nagasawa deserves that.

"Cough..." The boy was just about to laugh when he suddenly coughed. He took a deep breath and before saying,

"You are unmistakably famous. You graduate in the first grade, after all."

"My name is Hayate Gekkō. This is my good friend, Yūgao Uzuki. I am very happy to meet you." Hayate Gekkō introduced himself and also introduced Yūgao Uzuki who was standing next to him.

"Hello." Yūgao Uzuki, who was standing next to Hayate Gekkō, also greeted Kabuto.

"Nice to meet you. I am Kabuto Yakushi, but please spare from famous part. It feels too exaggerated." Kabuto scratched his head and said.

After sharing their names, the two of them chatted more and the atmosphere became livelier.

"Kabuto, what kind of Breathing Styles are you going to learn? According to the briefing, there are a total of five basic Breathing Styles we can choose." Hayate Gekkō asked with a smile.

Before letting the students register, the students were provided with basic information regarding the characteristics of the Five Basic Breathing Styles.

"Water Breathing," Kabuto said honestly without hiding anything.

"Water Breathing? Not bad. According to the information given, Water Breathing is the most fluid and balanced of all. It's also very strong in long battle." Hayate Gekkō praised.

"What are you going to choose, Hayate?" Dou Dou asked.

"I'm going with Wind Breathing," Hayate Gekkō said without hesitation. His goal was very clear.

"Wind is so carefree, so I want to learn from Wind Breathing and feel the wind."

"It is good to have a clear goal. However, the Breathing Style you choose should be in sync with your Nature Type." Kabuto gave a little advice.

However, he clearly forgot that not everyone had a brother who assisted them in training.

For the fresh graduates, it was not realistic to choose Breathing Styles according to their Nature Type. Besides, the Academy did not teach anything about Nature Type.

At this moment, the door of the classroom opened, and a man wearing a Konoha Shinobi uniform with a long sword on his waist walked in.

Many students in the classroom quickly recognized this Shinobi. He was one of the mentors who performed Flame Breathing that day.

Masato Uchiha used his three-tomoe Sharingan to check the number of people in the classroom, and he found exacly thirty people there.

"Follow me." After confirming the number of people, Masato Uchiha did not waste his time and then led everyone out of the classroom.

The students in the teaching room, including Kabuto, Hayate Gekkō, Yūgao Uzuki quickly followed Masato Uchiha.

Nagasawa did not tell Kabuto anything about the Special Combat Division's assessment, so Kabuto did not know what would happen next.

Masato Uchiha led the students northwest.

As they walked, the students found that it was getting more and more remote, and they could even occasionally see a severed big tree or a big stone that flew out of nowhere.

Although they were students, they were Academy's students. Seeing this scene, they speculated that this might be where the Nine-Tails' attack took place.

But soon, the severed trees and mess on the road decreased, and the students could vaguely see a wide wooden building in the distance.

"That is the base of the Special Combat Division." Masato Uchiha glanced at everyone and pointed to the wide wooden building in the distance.

But just as many students were thinking about what the next assessment would be, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, four masked Shinobi without forehead protector jumped out and attacked Masato Uchiha.

Although Masato Uchiha reacted, there were four people on the other side and they were soon injured.

"A spy infiltration! Go to the Special Combat Division and inform Nagasawa-sama." Masato Uchiha shouted at the graduates as he pushed away the nearest black-clothed Shinobi.

"How could there be a spy invasion?"

This sudden change caught Academy's graduates off guard.

Even though Kabuto was a little surprised, Kabuto noticed some odd facts. Why did Masato Uchiha seem to be a lot weaker, and the students around him were also strange.

What was going on?
