Become Kizaru in Naruto World - Chapter 8
“Today’s test is divided into three parts: cultural examination, physical assessment, and intra-class battles. I hope everyone can give their best performance!” In the classroom, Kiyoshi held the exam papers for the cultural test, speaking with a serious expression.
Some students below were excited, like Inabi and Toda. Both frequently glanced towards Kizaru, who sat at the back of the classroom, their thoughts quite apparent.
Since losing to Kizaru in the previous entrance exam, both had undergone special training from their clan elders, significantly improving their strength.
This enhancement in abilities increased their confidence. Combined with Kizaru’s lackadaisical attitude at school, both believed he had fallen while they had risen, certain they could defeat him!
With excitement came apprehension.
In front of Kizaru, Shikaku let out a heavy sigh, muttering to himself, “What a hassle!”
A month of interaction had brought Kizaru closer to the future generation of Ino-Shika-Cho trio. Because of this, the three had a clearer understanding of Kizaru’s strength.
They had all heard from Kizaru that he trained every day after coming home and had already mastered several intermediate and advanced Wind Release techniques.
Kizaru’s performance in the previous entrance exam had stirred many within the ninja clans. Their children had not been having an easy time lately, undergoing specialized training after school every day.
“What are you here for? Why don’t you just apply for graduation already?” Shikaku turned his head, looking disdainfully at Kizaru behind him.
“The environment here is nice, and everyone is fun. The teachers’ lectures are pretty sleep-inducing too, much more comfortable than home,” Kizaru leaned against the chair back, rocking it slightly, speaking with a grin.
“…You have such twisted tastes.” Shikaku sneered, then turned back, dejectedly resting his head on the desk.
Thinking about Kizaru’s significant progress in this test once again, the parents of other students, including Shikaku, felt melancholic about themselves and their peers.
Encountering a prodigy like Kizaru in their generation was truly unfortunate!
The cultural portion wasn’t a significant part of the ninja school test, so there was only one paper, and they had just an hour.
Kiyoshi handed the paper to his two favorite studious students, Minato and Yoshihiko, letting them distribute the papers.
One distributed on each side; of course, Yoshihiko chose the side where Kizaru was.
“Big Brother, good luck!” Yoshihiko walked up to Kizaru with the last sheet, clenched his fist, and enthusiastically cheered Kizaru on.
“You too, Yoshihiko!” Kizaru responded with a smile.
“Sure thing!” Encouraged by Kizaru, Yoshihiko nodded repeatedly. “Brother, I won’t let you down.”
After Yoshihiko left, Kizaru picked up the paper and quickly skimmed through it.
It had only been a month since school started, and the questions on the paper were quite simple. Even though Kizaru usually slacked off at school, he didn’t feel any difficulty.
Taking a pencil out of the drawer, Kizaru started answering earnestly.
An hour passed quickly, and Kiyoshi still had Minato and Yoshihiko help him collect all the papers from the class.
This time, instead of Yoshihiko, it was the future shining golden boy, Minato, who came to Kizaru’s side.
The young Minato was very outgoing, always wearing a warm smile. He got the papers and kept smiling at Kizaru.
“What a nice smile!” As Minato walked away, Kizaru stretched lazily, saying to himself.
“Hey hey hey! That’s a boy you’re talking about!” Hearing Kizaru’s words, Shikaku turned and complained.
“I’m just stating facts! You’re the weird one, what kind of stuff do you usually think in your head?” Kizaru retorted.
“Let’s gather at the playground!” Inoichi, who had been silent, interrupted their banter.
“You’re the real weirdo here, aren’t you?” Still bantering, Shikaku stood up alongside Inoichi, just like the rest of their classmates.
Kizaru also joined the three in front and walked towards the playground. The school’s playground was quite spacious, and the elite first-year students gathered around the teacher Kiyoshi in an irregular circle.
“The physical test is divided into two parts: one for assessing physical fitness and the other for the use of ninja tools.
The first part of the physical test, assessing physical fitness, commenced. The test content was straightforward: running laps.
All the students together started running 20 laps around the playground, and their times were recorded.
“Everyone, get to the starting line and listen to my command!” Kiyoshi stood amidst the students, loudly commanding.
The students obediently, excitedly ran to the starting line, waiting for the teacher’s instruction.
“Hey, Kizaru, I won’t lose to you this time!” While the teacher hadn’t given the order yet, Inabi stepped forward to Kizaru.
Due to the height difference, Inabi could only look up when talking, exhibiting the inherent pride of the Uchiha clan.
“Um, you have some greens in your teeth!”
Because of the downward view, Inabi’s nostrils and mouth, high up in the air, were particularly noticeable to Kizaru.
“What?” Inabi was stunned for a moment, then blushed red instantly.
“Hahaha!”
Kizaru’s voice wasn’t loud, but it wasn’t intentionally subdued either, so many students around heard his words and chuckled.
Among them, Yoshihiko laughed the loudest!
Yoshihiko had long been discontented with Inabi, who always claimed to defeat his Big Brother Kizaru.
Amidst the laughter, Inabi’s face became even redder, and even his eyes seemed to be trending towards red, as if he were about to awaken his Sharingan.
“You… you! When we compete later, I’ll definitely teach you a lesson!” Inabi yelled in frustration.
Kizaru nodded in agreement, responding, “Sure! Good luck!”
After saying that, Kizaru turned around directly, ignoring Inabi and headed towards where Shikaku was.
“Damn it! That’s just so infuriating!” Inabi watched Kizaru walk away, fuming in place.
“Hey, you’re such a troublemaker!” Shikaku, rubbing his head, saw Kizaru approaching and directly criticized him.
“What did I do?” Kizaru innocently asked.
“That guy is on the verge of losing it because of you!” Shikaku retorted, glancing sideways at Inabi.
“Don’t praise me; it’s just what I, a good classmate, should do!” Kizaru showed a slightly embarrassed expression, scratching the back of his head, saying.
“Oh, you!” Shikaku sighed in resignation.
