Kurenai wasn't just being polite, she genuinely thought that way.
Although Kiyoshi was about the same age as her, he had received much less formal education.
"Kurenai, you can do it too." Kiyoshi said with a faint smile.
The added weight on his forehead made Kiyoshi feel a little uncomfortable.
No wonder some ninjas don't tie their headbands on their foreheads, but on their arms, waists, or other places.
"I hope I can succeed too."
Kurenai nodded with a hint of melancholy.
Actually, she hadn't even thought about graduating early before.
But when she thought about it, continuing to stay didn't really make much sense. There wasn't much left to learn at Ninja school.
The two exchanged a few words, and Kiyoshi went to say hello to Rin.
Obito, on the other hand, had run off to who knows where.
When Kiyoshi asked Rin about Obito, she said that he had gone to train.
Kiyoshi didn't care where Obito had gone to and continued chatting with the two girls.
Before long, Asuma came out from inside with an excited expression.
He pointed to the headband on his forehead and said to Kurenai, "Kurenai, graduating early isn't that difficult."
Although Asuma wanted to make his voice sound calm, his beaming expression betrayed him.
Clearly, he was very happy to be able to graduate early.
"…"
As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.
Kurenai felt that Asuma was too unstable compared to Kiyoshi.
"Kurenai?"
Asuma saw a hint of disappointment on Kurenai's face.
He didn't what he had done to make Kurenai show such an expression.
He wanted to ask, but Kurenai had already stepped forward and gone in for the assessment.
Seeing this, Asuma had no choice but to give up.
"Where's Obito?"
Asuma also wanted to show off in front of Obito. He looked around, but didn't find any trace of Obito.
"He left." Rin said softly.
She also had the thought of graduating early in her heart. But Rin didn't have confidence.
Her family didn't provide her advanced education like Asuma or some others. She had learned everything from Ninja school.
"He left so fast."
Asuma's plan fell through, so he had to wait for Kurenai with Kiyoshi.
Kiyoshi took the opportunity to open the trait panel while he had nothing to do.
Looking at the two upgrade routes below, he decisively chose the second one.
"You have acquired a new trait [Academic Genius (Green)]."
[Academic Genius (Green)]
[Requirements: Graduate early and have basic learning ability.]
[Progress: Completed]
[Effect: Your concentration ability is greater than others in everything you do, and your learning ability increases by 20%.]
[Note: Can be upgraded.]
"20% increase?"
Kiyoshi felt that his brain had become much clearer, and his thinking speed had increased.
Some of the previous doubts he had about ninjutsu gradually cleared.
Inspiration and ideas gushed out.
Kiyoshi closed his eyes and began to think about some of his past doubts.
About ten minutes later
Kurenai also came out from inside with a smile on her face, and a headband on her forehead.
Orochimaru said, "Hehe, Sarutobi-sensei, many people are graduating early this year."
Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen walked out together.
"These are the new leaves of Konoha."
Hiruzen nodded slightly when he saw his son, Kiyoshi and Kurenai talking.
If they are assigned to a small team like this, there probably won't be any conflicts.
Hiruzen said, "Asuma, you must remember to get along well with Kiyoshi and the others."
"I know."
Asuma waved his hand impatiently.
Hiruzen was used to Asuma's attitude and left with Orochimaru.
"Are you still coming to my house today?" Kiyoshi glanced at Kurenai and asked.
"Yes." Kurenai nodded.
Asuma asked, "Kurenai, you're going to Kiyoshi's house?"
Asuma was stunned, how come he didn't know about this?
So, the reason Kurenai had lately disappeared after school was because she was going to Kiyoshi's place.
"Yeah, I am learning genjutsu from him." Kurenai said.
She quickly followed Kiyoshi, who had already turned to leave, leaving only Asuma and Rin.
Rin looked at Kiyoshi and Kurenai, who had already walked away, secretly envying them.
If only her relationship with Kakashi was like that.
Unfortunately, Kakashi had gone out to perform missions again recently.
Every time he came back, Rin felt a heavy smell of blood on Kakashi.
This is the smell that only people who have killed have…
Rin suppressed the sorrow in her heart and turned back.
It seems that asking Kiyoshi about lightning release can only be done next time.
She didn't want to disturb Kurenai.
After Rin left, only Asuma stayed in place.
In the blink of an eye, the relatively lively place contained only him alone.
Hearing Kurenai say that she was going to Kiyoshi's house, Asuma wanted to say that he would go with her.
But thinking about it carefully, he was not familiar with Kiyoshi at all.
Wouldn't it be embarrassing if Kiyoshi said that his home didn't welcome him?
"Damn it, after this Kiyoshi came, everything has changed."
After Kiyoshi had come here, Asuma felt that everything was not going well.
He casually put a toothpick in his mouth and thought of a way to find a good reason to approach Kurenai.
He was here first!
…
Several hours later
Kiyoshi, who had seen Kurenai off, looked at the sky and walked outside.
He is now considered a ninja, just waiting for the higher ups to arrange his future direction.
Uchihas generally join the Konoha Police Force and are assigned to the first squad after becoming a Chunin.
Before that, they can also apply to go to the Konoha Police Force to study in advance.
Or thet can take the normal route and become a member of a three-person team.
However, very few people choose the latter path.
While thinking, Kiyoshi arrived at a location.
Konoha Hospital
Kiyoshi came to the first floor and asked the medical staff here for Nono's location.
Nono is the captain of the medic corps. Almost everyone in the hospital knows her, so Kiyoshi smoothly found Nono.
"Eh, little Kiyoshi, how did you find this place?"
Nono was slightly stunned. She remembered that her agreement with Kiyoshi was about graduation.
Immediately, she saw the headband on Kiyoshi's head and understood.
"I graduated, Nono-sama."
Kiyoshi pointed to his forehead.
"You are very talented."
Nonou said, pushing her round-framed glasses, adding a touch of maturity to her pretty face.
Seeing this, Kiyoshi quickly shifted his gaze.
Generally, people with glasses have contrast.
Nono has a compassionate and saintly expression, but she has such a plump body.
Just thinking about it could make Kiyoshi's pupil power ripple.
But it's just thinking, Kiyoshi didn't dare to show any extra expression on his face.
Nono is the leader of the Root Intelligence Team.
"However, if you want to learn medical ninjutsu, I need to see if you have Yang Chakra nature." Nono said softly.
