44 Academy! III

he kids in the class had a few questions that they didn't answer and Kazutora and Shikakuro took turns to answer them. Itachi looked at the duo with a thoughtful look on his face and he tried to think of their answers.

"Why do wars happen and why do people fight?" He asked, and the whole room became silent at his words.

"For this question, you better read more books and think on your own," Shikakuro said with a yawn, and he didn't want to step on the landmine.

"He is right, there are many answers to this question, but each answer has personal bias in it. So, you better read more books, read about the wars and what happened in them. After that, if you still can't come up with an answer, I will tell you, my opinions."

"Tsk! Isn't it because they want to fight for goods?" Hana whispered while clicking her tongue and she, who took care of dogs, knew about the animalistic nature and survival of the fittest.

"Shh! That's your opinion because you have seen animals fight for themselves and their territories. There might be similarities, but they aren't same. Animals are animals, and they can't be judged by human nature. It's vice versa, and some things that might be simple for animals can be complex for humans."

Kazutora shushed Hana, who frowned, but she didn't say anything. She started to think of the words and then nodded as she could somewhat understand them.

Shikakuro looked at Kazutora for a moment and then he closed his eyes. He didn't expect that the troublesome task would be this troublesome, but he had to say that it was fun to talk with people who understand your views.

"That's it! The class is about to get over, and before leaving, I will give homework to you all. You need to submit the homework next week, and you all need to write on the topic that Itachi spoke about."

"It will be a good activity, and you all can form groups to submit papers instead of writing on your own. But, in the group, besides the main paper, you all need to write another personal one that would show your views too."

Kazutora groaned at his words, and he sensed two people staring at him. Looking at his seatmates, he said, "Nah, it's impossible. I won't do a group project and you two write on your own."

"Eh? Eh? How did you know?" Hana asked with a surprised look on her face, and she didn't expect him to answer before she even said anything. Kazutora snorted at her words, and he had already attended school once and he knew what these kids had in their mind.

"So troublesome!" "What a drag!"

Kazutora and Shikakuro said at the same time, and they looked at each other. It was like kindred spirits meeting each other, and nodding at each other, they closed their eyes and lay down on the table.

"Tsk! Lazy guy," Hana muttered while clicking her tongue, and she looked at Hina, who shook her head.

"I will write on my own, but I can accompany you in reading books."

"Hmm, that's okay," Hana said and she looked at the other three, who shook their heads.

"Itachi-kun, can you help me in looking for the books at the library?" Izumi asked Itachi, who shook his head and said, "No, I don't have time. I need to ask Father about this, and you can look for someone else."

"Uh?" Izumi felt like she had been struck by thunder, and Hina and Hana looked at Itachi with weird looks on their faces. They could feel that Izumi had a good opinion of Itachi, but his words killed all the good feelings.

"Did he do it on purpose or is he oblivious?" Hana whispered to Kazutora, and Izumi's eye twitched at her words.

"I don't know. Itachi's brain circuit is weird, and on our first meeting, he asked me what is the meaning of life? Mm! Now that I mention it, Itachi! Did you get the answer?"

Itachi looked at Kazutora with his eye twitching and he remembered how he was punished by Mikoto for asking stupid questions like this and he said, "I don't know. I asked someone else, and they said that Life is meaningless."

"Aunt Sna-Ahm! I mean, Mister Orochimaru?" Kazutora asked and Itachi nodded at his words. Hana, Kyo and Hina looked at Itachi with weird looks in their eyes and this question is something that people ask when they are injured, depressed or on death bed A six-year-old asking a question like this is too weird.

"Mm, Izumi! Do me a favour and tell sister Mikoto everything that happened today. I am sure she will be 'happy' and give Itachi a few 'gifts' for asking questions like this."

Kazutora said with a mischievous smile on his face, and Izumi nodded with a depressed look in her eyes.

"Also, if you need help, you can ask me. I can get the books for you, after all your mother asked me to take care of you."

With a smile on his face, Kazutora said those words and Izumi's face turned red at his words. Hana looked at him with a disgusted look on her face and she clicked her tongue. Hina had a surprised look on her face as she felt that there was a story between them.

As for Kyo, he felt that he needed to do more to complete the mission given that the relationship between Senju and Uchiha seemed a bit closer.

Tsunade, who was watching the whole drama at the house with a few packets of chips and popcorn, grinned at Kazutora and said, "Haha, as expected of Little Tora. The rizz is different."

She had learned these words from the novels that Kazutora had written, and she felt that it would be okay to develop a technique to project the scene in the crystal.

"Hmm, I will do something and talk with him. The projection technique would help, and I just need to develop a few seals."

Tsunade muttered with a grin on her face, and she continued to watch the live drama in the crystal.

The next teacher arrived in the class and Kazutora looked at her. In the class, someone's eyes lit up at the new teacher, and the teacher said, "Hello everyone, I am Nono Yakushi, and I will be your teacher for the next year. I am Medical Nin, and I will be teaching about chakra-related knowledge."

Kazutora's expression changed at the words, and he looked around. His eyes fell on the boy who wore glasses and even though he had read the name, he didn't expect Kabuto to be in his class.

"I have memorized your names so there is no need for further introductions. Before I start the class, can anyone get up and explain what they know about chakra?"

Nono looked around the class, and her eyes fell on her targets. She had received the mission from Danzo to keep an eye on and make reports of the students in the class, and at her question, a few in the class raised their hands.

"Okay, Kabuto! Tell what you know," Nono said, and Kabuto got up and answered the question. Looking at them, Kazutora had various thoughts in his mind, and he wondered if he could take advantage of the scenario.

'Is it possible to use this chance to cut off the relationship between Nono and Danzo? Well, I will just keep an eye on her for now, and then think about it.'

Kazutora thought in his mind, and Nono talked about chakra, how it is made, how it is used and everything else.

Most of the people in the class already knew about this, so they were bored while the others listened to her words with a serious looks on their faces.

"Boring, isn't it?" Hana whispered, and Kazutora nodded at her. He looked at Hana for a moment and then used sensory techniques on Nono. As soon as he did this, he saw Nono turning to him but he acted as if nothing happened and kept on staring at her.

'Did I misread it? I felt like someone checked me,' Nono thought in her mind while she continued her words, but she didn't use chakra to sense around.

Kazutora remembered Nono's chakra, and he felt another chakra in her brain and on her nerves. A grin appeared on his face, and he could be sure with it.

'I have 'evidence', and Tsunade will listen to me if I say this to her. Still, let's keep an eye on her, and I will try influencing Kabuto first and then ask Tsunade to keep an eye on Konoha orphanage.'

After the class ended, Nono left the room, and another teacher appeared. Nothing interesting happened, and then the time of recess arrived.
