That night, Kurayoshi packed his things and went home.

The streets of Konoha are full of people, and they are as prosperous as ever.

Kurayoshi bought some ingredients and went home to cook and eat.

After cleaning the dishes and chopsticks, he went to the ashram to meditate.

After the food is digested, it is time to practice swordsmanship.

Shuriken can be practiced in crowded places, but swordsmanship and ninjutsu are not.

It's easy to expose your own fighting style.

Although they are companions of the same village.

But knowing the darkness of the village, he couldn't trust it as much as anyone else.

Moreover, factors such as leakage of espionage intelligence must also be taken into account.

Under the light, the sword light and sword shadows flew up and down, and the air was filled with a sharp atmosphere.

Half an hour later.

Kurayoshi put his sword into the sheath and slowly exhaled a long turbid breath.

On the ground, there was another three-meter-long sword mark.

It's a little shorter than last night, though.

Well! Swordsmanship has improved slightly.

……

The next day.

Kurayoshi got up as usual and repeated yesterday's trajectory.

However, school is starting to open.

The first week is a history lesson about ninjas.

In particular, the history of Konoha since its founding, some well-known ninjas who have made outstanding contributions to the village are remembered in textbooks.

Although this kind of class does not help to become a ninja, it can increase the student's sense of pride and belonging to the village.

After these lessons, Kurayoshi often saw some over-the-top guys preaching that they wanted to become xx ninjas or something.

All in all, full of energy.

In the second week, the basics of ninja are introduced, and there is an outdoor class every morning and afternoon for physical fitness.

In the third week, there were more outdoor classes and fewer indoor classes.

The school began to teach the use of shuriken.

Week 4, Week 5, Week 6......

The school's curriculum changes from week to week, but it is well organized and the students' progress is noticeable.

In particular, those civilian students who have no basic training are making visible progress every day.

The ninja school has been established since the second generation period, more than 40 years ago, and has already explored a set of reasonable teaching models.

It's just that these are completely useless to Kurayoshi.

He has long mastered all the ninjutsu and fighting skills necessary for the lower ninja, and his physical fitness has reached the limit of this age.

What he lacks is the knowledge and literacy that ninjas have.

Kurayoshi didn't want to waste his time in useless outdoor classes, and he was bent on making up for his shortcomings.

After class, indoor and outdoor classes, I was holding a book and reading it.

There are teaching materials issued by the school, and there are extracurricular readings borrowed from the library.

In order to increase his efficiency, he played a prank on Naruto and obtained a piece of Sakura's hair and forged the desired prop.

"Xueba glasses: When the wearer learns, it improves concentration, memory, and comprehension. (Put it on, and you're a top student.) ）”

This is a gold-rimmed glasses.

Wearing it, Kurayoshi, who was already soft, was a little more bookish.

With Xueba Glasses, I was able to understand the knowledge that I only found difficult to understand and memorize before, but I was able to understand it very quickly.

Kurayoshi was even more obsessed with studying, and only practiced shuriken and swordsmanship at home or at the training ground after Fang Xue.

He became a well-known nerd at school.

Time is like water, always flowing by inadvertently.

It's June.

The sun is blazing in the sky, making people faintly feel that summer is approaching.

People are gradually wearing less and less.

Kurayoshi is no exception.

White tank top, army green knee-length shorts, ninja shoes.

Compared to the slightly longer hair before, gold wire glasses.

It's really elegant and easy-going.

Today, another outdoor class.

Kurayoshi was not interested, holding a thick leather book, hiding behind the crowd, watching quietly under a large tree.

"Kurayoshi!"

Iruka's roar was heard.

Kurayoshi was stunned, looking at the crowd.

I saw that everyone in the class was staring at him, and Naruto Ino and the others were even glaring at him in the crowd.

However, who can understand this grimace-like expression!

Kurayoshi was powerless to complain.

He blinked, looked at his classmates and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Iruka squeezed out from the back of the crowd and felt a little angry when he saw Kurayoshi sitting under a tree with a book in his arms.

The rest of the class was deserted in indoor classes, and only Kurayoshi was lazy in outdoor classes.

He talked to Kurayoshi a few times, and Kurayoshi immediately admitted his mistake, but after that, he still went his own way, what should he do.

Iruka thought that Kurayoshi's attitude would not allow him to become a ninja, and he also mentioned it to the third Hokage, hoping to withdraw Kurayoshi from school.

But Miyome always kept a smile and told him that Kurayoshi would definitely be able to become a ninja in his own right.

Iruka didn't know why Miyome was so sure, but he didn't agree.

Although Kurayoshi's grades are not bad, he deserts and is lazy every time he takes outdoor classes......

As a ninja, Iruka knows how dangerous the profession can be, and how important strength is to a ninja's career.

He allowed his students to be lazy in indoor classes, but he never allowed anyone to be lazy in outdoor classes.

Because, it is not responsible for their lives.

As a teacher, Iruka would not allow that to happen.

However, the third generation does not allow Kurayoshi to withdraw from school, and Iruka has no choice but to rack his brains to make Kurayoshi realize the importance of strength, in order to change the behavior of desertion in outdoor classes.

Today, the school's curriculum has entered the sparring phase.

Iruka is ready to pit Kurayoshi against Sasuke, who is usually the best performer, so that he can recognize the gap with the top students in his class and work hard.

As a result, the goods went to the side to read the book again.

Do you really want to be a ninja?

Iruka's forehead throbbed, "Kurayoshi! ”

"Yes."

Kurayoshi hurriedly closed the book and stood up.

Iruka stared at him tightly, "Do you know what class this is?" ”

"Sparring lessons." Kurayoshi said truthfully.

It's good to know what classes to take.

Iruka breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, then you and Sasuke are in a group and show the whole class first!" ”

As he spoke, Iruka turned to look at Sasuke in the crowd, "Sasuke, get out of line." ”

"Hmm!"

Sasuke nodded, came to the middle of the playground, and then set his eyes on Kurayoshi.

"There you go!" Iruka said.

"Hoo ......"

Kurayoshi breathed a deep sigh of relief, and walked to Sasuke step by step with the thick leather book in his arms.

Sasuke looked at the book Kurayoshi was holding in his hand and raised his eyebrows, "You're going to fight me with this thing?" ”

"I don't want to fold the pages because I don't have bookmarks, so I ...... to ensure smooth reading."

Kurayoshi raised the book in his hand, his index finger between the pages, "Hurry up, I just saw something of interest." ”

"Are you in such a hurry to get beaten?" Sasuke's gaze froze.

"Sasuke is so handsome!"

"Sasuke teaches that nerd a lesson!"

"Sasuke ......"

Sasuke's flower messenger screamed like a nymphomaniac, and only Naruto Ino and the two sang dissatisfied.

Kurayoshi shook his head slightly, but did not reply.

It's just that under the glasses, the gaze becomes sharp.

Although he just wants to study quietly, he has no masochistic tendencies.
