4 Graduation

It's been three boring years at the academy and I learned nothing of note. Mainly politics and the will fo fire crap that's just brainwashing but I just ignore it and continue my business. Most days I'm actually just shadow cloning the classes.

My training takes precedence after all this class goes through a lot of stuff in a short time frame. Not to mention that there was a difference in the class. Firstly Iruka was blonde, now that might not seem like a big deal it through me for a loop. Secondly seduction classes were an actual thing and I'm glad I went as it was very enlightening.

Lastly kiba wasn't in the class. Yeah kiba exists here but he's older by a few years, as is akamaru. Instead of kiba as my deskmate I have Hana inuzuka. She has three ninken, loves meat so I'm always sharing my jerky and she hates weak people. As I'm top 3 in class she likes clinging to me. She and her ninken love to sniff me.

Toriko had really prominent pheromones in his work which was due to rin being near him. So I'm similar. Her personality is like kiba but more feminine. Classes were torture most of the time so I either left a clone to train or slept. Which was hard to do as sasuke the little emo twerp he is liked to pop my clones during taijutsu class which led to iruka tracking me down and Naruto screaming he'll be hokage at the top of his lungs. The pranks weren't welcome either as I hated getting covered in paint and I hated the smell of chalk.

When i wasn't in class I'd be training jutsu, inventing or reinventing foods like my favourite snack squashies. Raspberry and milk gummies. Yum. My other activity would be a workout in the mountain. My hardest training is tying three heavy rocks or small boulders to my body and try the tree climbing exercise up a mountain. Once I could use tree walking I kept adding more weight.

I also did runs around Konoha which led me to meeting and sometimes racing guy. He made it fair by doing it on his hands. It wasn't that fair. I also went swimming and attempted to do water walking which I made progress but haven't mastered.

My sister began training frantically to become stronger again once she realised I had talent and would be shipped out to the worst places for genin. She really wants to be my teams captain. I also made friends in the academy.

Shikamaru was easy as I gave him eye masks that were realistic, that and we would share nap spots. Choji sees me as his clans god because of my food ideas, cola is his blood. Hana gets along well with both as she likes napping and meat, her ninken liking them made it easier. Naruto avoided me like I was the plague, he does it unconsciously too which makes it weird when people (iruka) ask him why. Shino is in a different class was another thing I spotted as a difference, I assume I took his spot in the class.

The women are a different problem. Hana is fine but Sakura annoys me, too loud and too love struck. Ino is similar but tolerable as she helps me with my hunting. Sometimes I need a certain flower or perfume to attract certain animals and she is more than happy to help. Plus we sometimes went hunting for truffles as a group. Hinata is also nice, she loves Naruto but won't do a thing about it so me and Hana spend most of our time encouraging her so she has more confidence in canon.

She promised she'd confess once she becomes a strong ninja. I find her determination admirable plus her voice is soothing. People with super senses have it tough so when you meet someone who's quiet and understanding you tend to get along. the only person I avoid is sasuke cause I can smell angst and rage from his hormones almost the whole time. People jumped on me when I said he smelled bad not understanding my meaning.

Mizuki is also a crude little shit, during practice when I go to use senbon he would give me bent ones. He doesn't like the fact an orphan had someone to rely on. That or Orochimaru is interested in me because of the markings on my body but I think that's not the case. I'm too small for him right now, he likes big fish like sharingans. Mizuki also ruins my studying during class when I study other topics. I tried learning fuinjutsu but it's to complicated for me, the taijutsu style here is pure shit and the other stuff doesn't interest me so I study something I like.

Biology. I have been studying the charts of chakra anatomy so I can improve toriko's knocking as I can use it. When I fought a chakra beast and used it, the thing got paralysed but slowly got back up by using chakra to blast out the knocking. Thus I'm trying to improve the technique but books only get me so far. I plan to find the perfect teacher for me in this subject later. Plot will literally guide me to her.

Anyway enough of the past, today is the final day where we have to demonstrate the three basic bitch jutsu; transformation, clone and replacement. I can do them in my sleep and with no hand signs. I also mastered the shunshin and the earth style hiding mole jutsu. They are extremely useful for hunting. I also had Kurenai teach me hiding in surface jutsu as it is perfect for camouflage. I feel like the predator.

Using toriko skills I can erase my presence and scent as well as slow my breathing but after learning shinobi equivalents and merging them it's safe to say I'm a stealth master. Only a jounin sensor can detect me when I focus on it.

I walked up to the desk were the examiners are and performed the clone and transformation technique. Then I merged them to show off. I passed and got the headband. I smiled as I had only seen knock offs of this headband from conventions in my previous life so to hold my own one which I earned gave me a deep sense of satisfaction.

We were told to report tomorrow for meeting our jounin sensei and being assigned teams. Everyone but Naruto left for their families. Sasuke went to brood. I went home to find Kurenai cooking all my favourite dishes with a smile and she congratulated me once she saw the headband. She knows that I'm practically chunin level already but still it's the thought that counts.

We had four large pizzas, big pieces of steak, surf n turf with plenty of mashed potatoes. Spaghetti Bolognese with lots of garlic bread. She also let me have some alcohol so I tried some whiskey and fell in love with the smokey taste. My food fighter jutsu kicked in and I got stronger which Kurenai noticed as my chakra grew denser. I also took some rum and made a jack and cokes. Simplest cocktail out there but a classic. Kurenai also liked it. We drank and ate the night away with smiles on our faces.

I'm glad I got sent here.
