Chapter 5: Uchiha Izumi (Edited)

Worried, Kushina couldn't help but say in a low voice, "I know that you, Naito, are very proud, but I don't want you to get hurt, I want you to consider leaving this kind of life, even if you are not a ninja, living as a civilian is also good."

Hearing these words, Naito was stunned for a moment.

Living as a civilian?

He never had that idea.

Against all odds, he never gave up, even before he obtained the Kekkei Genkai Temblor, he never stopped training every day.

He was ordinary in his previous life and died due to an accident. He reincarnated in the ninja world with the characters he was familiar with, he would never be ordinary again!.

Let alone after receiving the Kekkei Genkai Temblor!

Naito took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I'm not going to get hurt!"

Hearing the seriousness in Naito's voice, Kushina slightly regretted it.

If that's the case, maybe what she said was a bit harsh.

However, Naito didn't have any talent in Ninjutsu, so he was indeed not suited to be a ninja.

Thinking about this, Kushina unconsciously felt a bit more regretful, thinking that if Naito stopped being a ninja, she would always protect him.

After a while, Nakamoto, Naito's class teacher, approached the podium and said a few words and then called the students to come out to the playground.

Then, Nakamoto began to read the arranged bouts.

He shouted two names, and then, the two students came out of the crowd, approached the ring and began to fight.

The shurikens and Kunais used were all items that had not been sharpened, so although it was harder to cause fatal injuries, it was still impossible to avoid getting hurt.

After all, this is a Ninja Academy, and the ninja world is much crueler.

Even if Konoha's system was a bit gentler than Kirigakure's, it wasn't going to produce a lot of hothouse flowers.

There were many familiar figures Naito recognized in his class.

Of course, Kushina being one of them, and then of course there was the genius of the class, Namikaze Minato, future nicknamed Yellow Flach of Konoha, there was also Uchiha Mikoto, mother of Itachi and Sasuke.

Of course, they are now only 7 or 8 years old.

However, Minato's talent was incredible, not only in Naito's class but in all grades, no one can beat him, no one can be Minato's opponent!

When Minato stepped onto the stage, he attracted cheers from a group of girls, and there was no doubt that Minato's popularity was very high.

With a beautiful face along with great strength and talent, Minato is treated similarly to Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke in the anime.

Naito's appearance looked very similar to Uchiha Itachi, except for his hair which was pale silver.

When it comes to popularity, Naito had more popularity than Minato when he first entered the Ninja Academy, but when his extremely poor talent in Ninjutsu was revealed, and he was gradually surpassed by his classmates, his popularity gradually faded.

When Minato defeated his opponent in three moves, it provoked another round of cheers and applause from the girls.

At that moment, Kushina couldn't help but look at Naito beside her, feeling a little annoyed by Naito.

No matter if it was hard work or other aspects, Naito was no worse than Minato.

But it was because of the talent issues in Ninjutsu that made the gap between the two so big.

Just when Kushina couldn't help but sigh involuntarily, Nakamoto called out two names while holding up the list.

"Yuu Naito, Uchiha Izumi, please come up to the stage."

Hearing the two names, Kushina was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Why is he a boy from the Uchiha Clan and also Uchiha Izumi? He is the second strongest in the class after Minato in the class."

Fighting Uchiha Izumi can also be very dangerous, he is the strongest in the class not counting Minato.

Nakamoto must be doing this on purpose.

Kushina said angrily and urgently, "There's definitely a problem here! Naito, don't go up there, just give up, I'm also sure that Uchiha Izumi.... "

"There's no need."

Naito grabbed her by the shoulders as he interrupted her words, then looked into her eyes and said, "Rest assured, I won't get hurt."

This sentence had a kind of inexplicable momentum that made Kushina freeze for a moment.

After saying that, Naito turned around and walked to the ring calmly.

He knew, of course, that this was deliberate on Nakamoto's part.

Nakamoto never liked outsiders. His missions outside the village filled him with hatred for outsiders.

Naito's treatment in Konoha is no better than the Kyubi's Jinchuriki in the anime, however, unfortunately, not all teachers can be like Iruka.

Especially with Naito's poor talents, so Nakamoto resorted to tricks to try to get Naito out of his class.

The Ninja Academy has a system, unless Naito chooses to leave the Ninja Academy on his own, no one can expel him, not even his teacher.

As Nakamoto spoke, his true intentions appeared, "Naito, do you want to give up? It wouldn't be good if you get injured later."

In his opinion, the embarrassment of giving up without even trying in front of the whole class will be worse than the defeat itself.

Naito didn't say a word but silently stared at Nakamoto.

Stare!

This gaze disturbed Nakamoto.

That indifference, that calmness... This is not something a eight-year-old should possess!

Naito turned and looked at Uchiha Izumi, saying, "No, you can start right away."

Seeing this, Kushina, who was in the crowd, was surprised, she didn't expect Naito to decide to fight and not willing to give up.

"Damn it! These guys are always underestimating Naito," clenching her small fist, Kushina wanted to enter the field, but she couldn't do anything but stand still and worry about Naito.

She hoped it would all be over before Naito ended up hurt.

On the field, Uchiha Izumi also looked at Naito with a cold and arrogant face. Seeing that Naito did not want to directly admit defeat, he suddenly showed a hint of contempt.

A failure like Naito, who cannot use Ninjutsu, wants to defeat him?

Since he dared to face him, then he will make him regret it, make it an unforgettable memory for Naito, so the next time he is called upon he will know that he has no choice but to surrender.

Since Nakamoto's plan failed due to Naito's courage, Nakamoto felt guilty for a second, but he simply threw it to the back of his mind and directly announced the start of the battle, "Alright then, let's begin!"

At the same moment, Uchiha Izumi directly pulled out two handfuls of shuriken and suddenly threw them at Naito.

Whoosh!!

Suddenly, eight shurikens seemed to turn into black streaks, four of which were aimed at Naito's vital organs.

And the other four were aimed at his escape routes!
