Chapter 15 My Dream Is Being Low Profile

"Hey, Kanpū, I haven't seen you since the summer vacation started, you seem to have grown a lot taller!"

Kotetsu walked over and directly sat next to Kanpū to compare his height with him. He gestured with his hands, and said with a smile, "But you're still not as tall as me, hahaha."

"That's because my height is on my legs." Kanpū said casually.

Although it was the first time to speak to Kotetsu, the familiar feeling can't be erased.

"What do you mean?" Kotetsu was a little confused.

"Kanpū means that you have short legs." Izumo walked over and drew a knife to help him, stabbing straight at Kotetsu's heart.

"What?!" Kotetsu immediately jumped up and said, "Nonsense, I have legs below my chest, Kanpū, look, look! It's definitely longer than your legs!"

Kanpū threw a glance and hummed noncommittally.

Kotetsu clenched his teeth when he saw this: 'So angry!'

"Woof woof, woof woof woof~!"

Suddenly, Shiramaru, the Ninken in Tsukasa's arms, barked abruptly at Kanpū.

"No, Shiramaru, don't you know Kanpū?" Tsukasa is a little girl with two braids standing up, with red colored shadows painted on both sides of her cheeks, in the shape of canine teeth, which made her quite cute.

"Wu wu~" Shiramaru whimpered twice, as if he was wondering why he barked at Kanpū.

"Tsukasa, Shiramaru grows so slowly. My neighbor's dog can grow to the size of a knee in a year. Your Shiramaru doesn't seem to have any change in a year." Iruka leaned over and asked.

"Woof woof!" Shiraumaru barked twice in protest.

"Because Shiramaru is a Ninken, his growth cycle will be much slower than that of ordinary puppies!"

Kanpū raised his head and glanced at the white puppy in Tsukasa's arms, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: 'It seemed he had sensed the change of my soul, as expected of the Ninken of the Inuzuka Clan'

After he replaced the real Gekkō Kanpū, his behavior and tone of speech will inevitably be different from the original. For other people, including his parents, These differences would not feel too strange even if they noticed them. After all, Kanpū is still a child, and child is most susceptible to outside influences.

Therefore, as long as Kanpū doesn't admit it himself, the others will never think that his soul has changed.

But for dogs, a person's behavior changes will make them feel a little discomfort and strangeness, but these discomforts will soon disappear.

"Everyone, can we talk about those things later?"

Anko couldn't help but complained, "Let's talk about the after-school picnic first! Both Kanpū and Iruka don't want to go, so what's your opinion?"

Kanpū shrugged and reiterated: "This year, my younger cousin is enrolled in the Academy and I need to send him home after school. So for now, I really don't have time."

"I have something to do at home, too." Iruka raised his hand and followed.

Kotetsu and Izumo glance at each other, and then said in unison: "Anko, we have something to deal with after school, sorry!"

"Eh, why is it so?" Tsukasa pouted while holding Shiramaru. She is also a girl, and she likes desserts very much. Although she has no love for dango, she likes red bean soup very much!

Anko sighed helplessly, and said decadently: "Since you all have something to do today, then today's picnic can only be cancelled."

Kanpū, Iruka, Kotetsu, Izumo glanced at each other, and laughed tacitly.

"However, since today can't be done, let's do it tomorrow!" Anko rolled her eyes and exclaimed, "Let's go to a picnic after school tomorrow!"

"Agree!"

"Woof!"

Tsukasa and Shiramaru exclaimed cheerfully.

"..."

Kanpū and the others look at each other in blank dismay, 'This Anko is too deep, right?'

Just as Kanpū and the others were about to protest, Kashima Yu, the head teacher of Class 8, walked in.

Yu is in his early twenties this year, with a medium height, an ordinary face, and wears a Shinobi Forehead Protector. He is a civilian-born Shinobi, but he inherits Will of Fire and not afraid of hardship or tiredness. He is one of the best Chunin in Konoha (Said by Yu himself)!

"Everyone, we meet again, did you have a good summer vacation?"

Yu crossed his arms with a smile on his face, and then said without waiting for the students below to answer, "Regardless of whether you are having a good time or not, the new semester has arrived, so all of you have must pull yourself together!"

"Yes!"

The student responds weakly in small groups.

"Why are you so spiritless?" Yu said, "Have you forgotten your dream when you entered the Academy? It seems that I need to remind you!"

Speaking, Yu began to roll call: "Ito!"

"Yes."

Ito was a little fatty, and when he heard Yu called his name, he immediately stood up in a panic.

"Speak out your dreams out loud!" Yu shouted with a stern look on his face.

"…"

Ito was a little embarrassed and whispered, "That, sensei, my dream is to become a chef."

Kashima 'good-hearted' Yu blinked his eyes heavily and said: "Understood, sit down. Then, Mitarashi Anko!"

"Sensei, my dream is to dango, red bean soup, and red bean paste every day, and also…" Anko stood up rudely, and stretched out her fingers one by one to count.

"Okay, okay, okay, Anko, you sit down first."

Kashima 'I'm so upset' Yu's forehead throbbed slightly, and he looked around, "Gekkō Kanpū, what about you?"

Kanpū stood stood up and said hesitantly: "Being low profile, not wavering?"

"…pfft!"

"Hahaha."

"Kanpū has become funny."

The students were lying on the table covering their mouths and laugh.

The corners of Yu's mouth were already twitching, and he said: "Kanpū, your previous dream, wasn't your previous dream to inherit Konoha-Style Kenjutsu and become an excellent Jōnin?"

'Am I?'

Kanpū recalled, and realized that when he first entered school, he did say this when he introduced himself.

That scene is still a little shameful now that he thinks about it.

Kanpū said aggrievedly: "Sensei, last year, I was just a 6-year-old child who didn't understand anything. How can you take a child's words seriously?"

"I..."

Yu opened his mouth, but found that Kanpū's words make sense, so he couldn't refute it.

"Sit down." Kashima 'Feeling so tired' Yu looked towards Iruka sitting next to Kanpū and said, "Iruka, what about your dream?"

Iruka stood up with his back straight, and said loudly: "Sensei, my dream is to become an excellent Shinobi!"

"Well said!"

Kashima 'I'm so happy' Yu's face is full of smiles, 'Sure enough, Iruka will not let me down.' He immediately clapped vigorously and boasted in a high tone, "Students, you all must learn from Iruka. Don't forget your original intention to enter the Academy all the time. Since you have chosen to become a Shinobi, you must go through trials and hardships! No matter how difficult the hardship you encounter, everyone must be firm and pursue their dreams bravely!"

A generous speech finally inspired the passions of these students, and each of them clapped and applauded with glowing eyes.

Yu smiled and stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and everyone's applause immediately subsided.

"Students, in order to check whether or not you were lazy in the past summer vacation, everyone will gather at the training ground behind the Academy in ten minutes and prepare for the test!" Yu said loudly.

"Aahh, don't!"

"I hate this!"

"It doesn't matter, everyone is the lowest ranking anyway."

"I just hope I'm not the last one, Kanpū, it's up to you."

The students complained one after another, and one of them turned his head and looked at Kanpū expectant.

Kanpū's face froze for a moment, and then he became furious: 'What the hell! Is this guy human?'

'Because you don't want to be number one, you want me to be the one?'

'At any rate, we have been classmate for a year. Did the boat of friendship suddenly tip over?'
