Ninja School Teacher, I Can Become Stronger by Teaching - Chapter 28
Monday, Classroom of First Year, Class One at the Ninja Academy.
It wasn’t class time yet, and only half the students were present.
“Kotetsu, when are you going to introduce me to that cute girl you mentioned?” Izumo Kamizuki couldn’t help but ask Kotetsu Hagane.
Kotetsu grabbed Izumo by the neck and growled, “You still want me to introduce you to girls after you pretended to do poorly on the last exam but ended up scoring so well? Do you think fooling a brother is fun?”
Izumo protested, saying it was just a fluke and that he only scored five points higher than Kotetsu.
Only then did Kotetsu let go of Izumo, but he also mentioned that introducing girls would be difficult. His annoying cousin recently revealed some embarrassing things about him to Miho, so he didn’t have the face to see her.
“What a treacherous, rebellious scoundrel!” Izumo exclaimed indignantly.
“You’re exaggerating,” Anko Mitarashi commented from the side.
“Why do you need to meet girls anyway? Aren’t I a girl?” Anko asked, puzzled.
Izumo and Kotetsu were silent for a moment, exchanging looks, and finally, Izumo said, “Anko, it’s hard to explain, but just know we’re brothers.”
Girls? Anko didn’t mention it, and Izumo actually forgot Anko was a girl.
But which girl stands on a desk and shouts to the whole class? Anko’s behavior was more boyish than theirs, making it hard for Izumo to think of her as a girl.
At this moment, Mokutsuki walked in.
“Habu-sensei, do you think I look like a girl?” Anko asked directly.
Mokutsuki smiled and nodded, “Of course, an adorable girl.”
Setting aside her behavior, little Anko was indeed a cute girl.
Hearing Mokutsuki’s reply, Anko was delighted and stuck her tongue out at Kotetsu and Izumo.
Izumo and Kotetsu: …
What kind of girl asks such a question and then makes faces?
Soon, the morning’s ninjutsu theory class ended.
[Lecture Completed]
[Evaluation: A]
[Reward: Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death]
Mokutsuki immediately gained the memory and technique for this B-rank genjutsu.
“Another genjutsu. Now I have two to teach Shisui,” Mokutsuki thought.
In addition to the Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death, he previously obtained the Hell Viewing Technique from another lecture.
The Tree Binding Death creates an illusion where the opponent feels entangled by trees, immobilizing them while keeping their mind clear, often used for interrogation. The Hell Viewing Technique makes the target see their deepest fears.
Although he had no classes in the afternoon, a teacher from Class 6, Year 4, asked him to substitute. In Class 6, Mokutsuki spotted two ninjas who appeared in the storyline.
[Name: Genma Shiranui]
[Potential: A-]
[Name: Ebisu]
[Potential: B-]
He was teaching a ninjutsu class. Due to exceptional circumstances, the fourth grade was already a graduation year, so Mokutsuki mainly taught the Clone Technique, which is usually part of the graduation exam.
“It’s true. Habu-sensei really knows how to teach.”
“The problem with my clones wasn’t what I thought. I’m lucky the regular ninjutsu teacher was sick today, or I wouldn’t have attended Habu-sensei’s class.”
“I wish I could transfer to Habu-sensei’s class. If we were taught by him every day, I’d have no trouble mastering the three basic ninjutsu.”
“I don’t think that’s possible. I heard Habu-sensei only teaches one first-year class…”
With the knowledge from his teacher training, extensive ninja knowledge, and system-granted teaching skills, Mokutsuki’s teaching quality was clearly superior to that of an average chunin teacher.
The students of Class 6, Year 4 finally understood why those taught by Mokutsuki praised him so much. He was indeed excellent.
Despite the students’ praises, Mokutsuki didn’t let it go to his head.
He knew there were many factors at play, one of which was the warped educational environment at the Ninja Academy.
What kind of ninja would choose to become a teacher at the academy?
Mokutsuki didn’t know about the past or the future, but currently, only ninjas who believed their strength had peaked and wouldn’t advance further would become teachers.
The salary was enough to live comfortably in Konoha, but more was needed to support further training and growth.
This resulted in academy teachers generally being mediocre in strength and lacking ambition. If they were ambitious, they would be taking on missions and training hard instead of teaching.
With such teachers, only those with a strong sense of responsibility would seriously focus on teaching. Most were just coasting.
Mokutsuki believed that the higher-ups in Konoha were aware of this situation and perhaps even accounted for it when establishing the academy, which is why there were jonin senseis for post-graduation specialized training.
However, this wasn’t Mokutsuki’s concern. As a small teacher, he could only ensure his teaching quality.
[Lecture Completed]
[Evaluation: A]
[Reward: Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique]
Mokutsuki found himself awarded the Great Fireball Technique for the third time.
With the increasing memories of practicing this technique, Mokutsuki felt that his mastery of the Great Fireball Technique was reaching the system’s advanced level.
…
After school, Mokutsuki gathered with his students for their usual training.
“Habu-sensei, this is a once-in-a-lifetime request. Please, you must agree!”
Before training started, Obito ran up to Mokutsuki, hands clasped together, bowing in request.
“What are you asking for? How can I agree if I don’t know?” Mokutsuki responded, not sure what Obito was up to.
“I want you to teach me an impressive Fire Release jutsu so I can win first place in the Youth Ninjutsu Competition!” Obito revealed his request.
Obito had previously participated in the competition, thinking his mastery of the Great Fireball Technique would easily earn him first place, but he was defeated by the genius Kakashi.
Seeing the competition being advertised again, Obito decided to invite Kakashi for a rematch.
However, Obito felt unsure. Although the Dragon Fire Technique was practical, it lacked visual impact, and his so-called Great Fireball Technique wasn’t impressive.
But he believed in Mokutsuki’s ability.
[Student Uchiha Obito has set a training task]
[Training Task: Win first place in the Youth Ninjutsu Competition]
[Reward: Determined by task completion and strength growth during the task]
Three notifications appeared on Mokutsuki’s system panel.
