Chapter 23 Mooching Is All I Can Do

From Sōseki's point of view, this Academy's system is actually a subtle effort to dilute the clan's brand.

However, for children, these are not important. What really attracts them is——

"Wow! I want to choose Shōdaime-sama's Nativity of a World of Trees!"

"Idiot! Wood Release is a Kekkei Genkai's Ninjutsu. You can't learn it even if you choose it!"

"How dare you call me an idiot, let me show you my Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

"That's just you spitting. Look at my Water Release: Water Colliding Wave!"

In this lively atmosphere, Asuma ran over and sat down on the table in front of Sōsekiwithout being polite at all.

"Have you decided what to choose as a graduation gift? I'll say it first, I plan to choose Fire Release: Hiding in Ash and Dust Technique!"

Kurenai's fingertips lightly tapped on her delicate chin and then she said, "I want to choose Genjutsu: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique!"

Asuma then asked enthusiastically, "Sōseki, how about you?"

Sōseki folded his hands around his chest and said with a gentle but lazy smile, "I'll take... Spirit Transformation Technique!"

At this moment, the girl sitting behind Sōseki suddenly said timidly, "Huh, Spirit Transformation Technique?"

Sōseki turned around, tilted the head, "Shizune, is there any problem?"

Seemingly afraid to look directly into Sōseki's eyes, Shizune lowered her head shyly, and asked in a low voice, "Sōseki-kun, why do you want to learn this Ninjutsu?"

Sōseki answered sincerely, "If I can learn this Jutsu, I will be able to help everyone better in the future! Even if I go to the battlefield, I will be able to grasp everyone's information as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Shizune couldn't help but said, "But, people who learned this technique will be targeted by the hostile Shinobi Villages, and when using this technique is the most dangerous moment for the main body. Why would you choose such a harmful Ninjutsu to learn?"

At the end, her soft voice became agitated.

Sōseki smiled gently and said, "Shizune, do you think the senior who invented this Jutsu hasn't thought about this problem?"

Listening to Sōseki's words, Shizune subconsciously recalled the gentle face of that man. Although she was still very young at the time, the kind of care and gentleness has been engraved in her memory.

It was this memory that made her instinctively resist answering, "I don't know."

Sōseki smiled slightly and said with eyes full of longing, "Isn't the so-called Ninjutsu created according to the will of the ancestors? Wouldn't it be a pity if no one inherits the will of such a technique?"

Shizune was stunned and repeated what Sōseki had said, "Inherit ...Will..."

"Wait, wait!" Asuma waved his arm vigorously, interrupting the conversation between the two, "Spirit Transformation Technique is an S-Rank's Secret Art Ninjutsu. Even if it's Sōseki, it's almost impossible to learn such technique!"

"Asuma, this isn't like you!" Sōseki turned around and smiled gently, "Even if it's the Secret Art Ninjutsu, wasn't it created by people? People have learned it people, so can't we even repeat the path the ancestors have walked? If we don't even have such courage to do that, how can we create a better future?"

Hearing this, Asuma's blood is boiling and he shouted enthusiastically, "You're right, I want to choose a Secret Art Ninjutsu too!"

However, Ibiki's voice came from the side. "There is no Fire Attribute's Secret Art Ninjutsu in the book of Forbidden Technique."

"Ah~ No~"

Smiling, Sōseki turned his attention to Shizune again, "As for the question just now, I already have the answer."

"Whether it is the hostile Shinobi Villages or the weakness of the main body, in fact, one answer can be used to answer these two problems - partner!"

"Asuma, Kurenai, if it's you guys, you can definitely protect me, right?"

Asuma who is still mourning because there is no Fire Attribute's Secret Art Ninjutsu in the book of Forbidden Technique, shouted in a passionate tone upon hearing this, "Of course, if someone wants to deal with Sōseki, they have to step over my corpse first!"

Seeing this, Kurenai gritted her teeth bitterly, 'Bastard, why are you answering so quickly!'

At this moment, Shizune came back to her sense and looked towards Sōseki, as if there were twinkling stars in her eyes, "Sōseki-kun, in fact, the person who created Spirit Transformation Technique is my uncle, Katō Dan! "

Sōseki showed a hint of surprise at the right time, and then "suddenly" exclaimed, "No wonder you were so surprised when you heard that I planned to choose Spirit Transformation Technique, it turns out..."

Shizune bit her lower lip and said, "Although, although this Jutsu is already owned by the village..."

Sōseki is not surprised about this. After all, with Konoha's "patent rights", they will own the technique after the inventor died.

"However, my uncle's experience about training Spirit Transformation Technique still remains. If, if you need it, Sōseki-kun, I can lend it to you! "

Sōseki was "overjoyed" and asked, "Is it really okay?"

Shizune nodded her head vigorously and answered, "Well, if it's Sōseki-kun..."

At this moment, Ryosuke rushed in from the door like a wind, ran to Sōseki, and said gloatingly, "Aha, Sōseki, guess what I saw when I went to the toilet just now? "

Asuma next to him said with a look of disgust, "You shouldn't have walked into the girls' toilet, right?"

"Idiot, how could this Ryosuke-sama do such a thing!" Ryosuke blushed," I'll just tell you directly, that guy Mizuki was blocked by the third graders! "

Ryosuke screamed out, and the whole class watched over.

"He deserves it! Who made not giving respect to class leader last time! "

"That's right, if it wasn't for Soseki, who would care about him?"

"When you say this, I kind of want to go and see how unlucky that guy is."

Ryosuke about to agree a few times when he suddenly saw Sōseki's solemn face, and asked with confused expression, "Sōseki, are you trying to save that bastard?"

Sōseki nodded seriously.

Seeing this, Ryosuke couldn't help but said depressedly, "Is that guy that important?"

"Every one of you is very important to me! "Sōseki's gentle eyes swept over everyone. His voice was firm and strong, "I know that Mizuki is not very sociable, and can even be said to be a little withdrawn, but in any case, he is a member of our class, and as long as he doesn't do anything that endangers our class, he will always be our companion. Our first-graders didn't need those third-graders to attack one of us!"

Actually, Sōseki's remark this time is not very good, but thanks to his usual perfect image, everyone's enthusiasm is suddenly risen.

"Our first grade is the best group! "

"Yeah, let us show those third-grader bastards that we are not so easy to bully!" "

Like a torrent, everyone took the initiative to follow Sōseki and rushed out.

At this time, the other old students on the Academy looked at this scene in a daze and horror. 'Do these new students want to start a war in the Academy?'

'So terrifying!'
