20 Academy

The weekend flew by unnoticed by training and the day of study came after a small vacation. Civilian children begin their studies in August in order to catch up on some knowledge of clan children whose parents teach everything. But I was from a clan, and since I arrived too late to enter summer school, no one saw any problems and was immediately admitted to training.

After doing my morning chores and picking up the necessary documents, I went to the opening of the school. The opening took place near the school where the teachers introduced themselves to the students, and then the Hokage came out and introduced himself. After that, it was necessary to go to the teachers' office where they would check whether the student had opened the chakra before, and also to get the necessary documents.

Sasuke wanted to go see what awaited him in a year, but with my convictions, he continued to study in the library. It will take a lot of time even with the sharingan to master everything.

When I reached the playground where the children and parents were already standing, I looked around. Apparently, I came too early. There were no teachers and the Hokage yet, but the guards were already both ordinary ninjas and people on the trees and on the roof. Reasonable, considering that the future workforce is gathered in one place - convenient for sabotage.

Having found a high branch of a tree, I jumped on it, disappearing from the field of view of the children who were standing near me. I didn't really like the looks on me as soon as I walked in. Compassionate looks.

While I was looking around the people who arrived, I was looking for someone I might know from the manga. There were a couple of familiar faces, but I could not remember the names.

Finally, the parents moved away from the children and the children were left standing in front of a small impromptu podium. From the academy went out the teachers and the Hokage. Two took the stage while the rest were left behind. One of them is Hiruzen, and I don't know the other. Jumping off the branch, I went up to the rows of children to hear better.

A man with a short beard entered the stage. The jоуnin's black neatly dressed clothes gave him a sense of importance.

"Good afternoon, children. For your next four years, unless you choose to stay longer, I will be your director. My name is Shoshin, I am an jounin. That's all, I pass on the words to the third Hokage "- bowing after a short introduction, he descended from the stage while hearing the applause of the impressed children and parents.

Like a peacock, Hiruzen swam after the director.

"We have gathered here where young children grow up and become men. To gain knowledge and strength to protect your family. We do not share the bonds of blood, but we are all a family that .. "- Hiruzen began his speech. My brain was cut off from the abundance of water and all I heard were the glimpses of the words - "Family .. The will of fire ... The will of fire .."

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the children looking at the Hokage and absorbing his every word. I understand perfectly well that it is easy to impress children with such a speech, but so much?

"… And let them learn that it is really important to love and take care of themselves and others. One day I believe that all these young seedlings will grow into large trees that will support our village. "- finally he finished.

To loud applaudissements, he left the stage and the director reappeared.

He introduced the teachers and went inside. Outside, there were two teachers, faces that seemed to be artists painted for extras, horror.

After calming the violent children, they lined up everyone.

"Now you will go to an open class where they will check you and determine which class you will enter. Don't crowd and go. " - one teacher said to guy who was trying to enter by force.

Staying in the crowd, I walked to class. Another teacher stood beside him and guided everyone.

Entering a large classroom with a bunch of desks and giant windows, I found an empty seat and sat down. When everyone was seated, they handed out sheets of paper with questions and pencils.

Academy entrance exam:

Question 1: 10 -4 =

Question 2: Who would you like to become in the future?

Question 3: Describe your feelings for the village.

Question 4: What is a leaf of a tree?

Question 5: 15 + 4 + 2 =

Question 6: How did you spend your summer?

Question 7: What do you think of the Hokage?

Question 8: What do you think of Ninja?

Question 9: 20-1 + 1 + 1-1 =

Question 10 What are 3 reasons why you want to become a ninja?

Question 11 What are kunai and shuriken?

Etc. 30 questions in total for children, the purpose of which is to find out if you will be loyal to the village. Incredibly simple and effective. Answering all the questions within the normal range without showing my disgust for the village and showing that I love it and want to become such a cool ninja that the whole world will know. It's bullshit no Jutsu, but who cares. I am sure that Naruto will answer every question in the next year - I will become Hokage, I will become Hokage, I will become Hokage, I will become Hokage ...

Having handed over the paper, I talked with the teacher about the same questions and they let me go and gave me a sheet with my enrollment.

"That's all, go to the second-floor class 6A. The complete timetable is on the chalkboard on the second floor. From now on, your class A. " - he said goodbye to me and switched to another child with white eyes.

Leaving the office, I quickly found the stairs and entered the classroom. Sitting in the far corner, I waited for the others. One by one they came in chatting, but when they saw me they shut up and, sitting down, began to stare at me and whisper. In the end, I counted 19 children. Quite small considering the size of that crowd outside.

The day went by, quickly.

Leaving the Academy, I secretly complained to myself about the missed time. All-day loose on performances and stories about shinobi. More precisely, it cannot even be called history. The teacher did not go further than the village. More precisely further Hokage. He told everything about the first great Hokage, then the second great Hokage ... Finally, when my torment ended and everyone was released, I asked how to get to the library?

And you know what? From the 3rd year of study, it will be open for me. From the third. Of the year. Academy.

This is just unreal shit. If every day will be like this I will go crazy. For 4 years here all they want is to brainwash and teach simple techniques. And then, through the jounin teacher, teach the rest.

Heading straight to shop, I changed my training plan in my head. More effort is needed if I want to achieve my goals and survive in the chaos that is coming. Perhaps I'll start with the weights store. I think I'm ready for those with seals since these on me no longer give a tangible effect.
