Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: First Meeting with Samui

"Are all the people in the Land of Lightning so talented?"

Kurenai declined Asuma Sarutobi's candy because she was afraid that she would gain weight if she ate too much candy.

Asuma can be considered her childhood sweetheart.

She and Asuma knew each other before they started school.

"Someone in my family has fought against the Kumo ninja, and they said this is the case."

The images of some burly men with tan skin appeared in Asuma Sarutobi's mind.

No matter how he looks at it, they are different from the skinny Seiji.

"But Seiji is quite different from the Land of Lightning people."

Asuma Sarutobi said.

"Who knows?"

Kurenai Yūhi shook her head.

She wasn't very interested in whether Seiji was strong in physical skills.

What she really wants to know is how talented Seiji is in Genjutsu?

She has always heard from her father that the Uchiha clan's ninja Genjutsu is very powerful, and everyone who awakens the Sharingan is a master of illusion.

Kurenai did not believe this.

In her heart, her father, who was a master of illusion, had worked hard all his life to achieve such success.

How is it possible that just any Sharingan could surpass him?

And among her classmates, only Seiji has opened the Sharingan.

It is said that Lady Tsunade was alarmed and went to check it out.

Seiji felt a gaze and looked over.

And he saw Kurenai deeply looking at him.

What does she want?

After thinking for a while, Seiji didn't pay attention to this matter any further. He occasionally responded to the conversations of people around him and concentrated on looking at the panel in front of him.

[Talent: Long-distance runner (white). ]

[Achievement requirement: Run 5 kilometers.]

[Progress: (Completed). ]

[Effect: Your lower limb strength has been improved, making you more adaptable to long-distance travel, and your leg strength has increased by 5% from the original level.]

[Note: You can continue to advance later. ]

"I learned a new talent in just over one class."

Seiji closed the panel, and his lower limbs seemed to be penetrated by a sudden warmth, integrating into every cell. He could feel his muscles becoming more solid.

He should get some bonuses when using physical skills such as kicking.

"I wonder if training methods like rock climbing and throwing ninja tools will continue to trigger corresponding entries."

Seiji pondered in his heart.

"Seiji, are you thinking about the meaning of youth?"

Might Guy asked as if he had met a brother from the same mother.

"…"

Seiji didn't say anything.

Ten minutes later, after Seiji and other students had rested, the results were announced.

"Might Guy first, Kakashi second..."

He began to read off the list, and eventually Seiji was ranked sixth.

In response to this, Seiji's expression did not change.

He had only started training for a short time, but he was able to jump to sixth place, which was enough to show his physical talent.

One should know that other people do physical training every semester, but they were surpassed by him.

No wonder Yakushi Nono said that he was suitable to be a Taijutsu ninja.

"Alright everyone, go back and remember to prepare for the sparring session a week later. Here is the list of names."

Kaito read out the list for the next week.

With the addition of Seiji, a transfer student, originally everyone had a sparring partner, and the class had an even number of students, but now there is one more.

Kaito thought for a while, and saw Obito walking over to talk to Rin, so he said:

"Obito, tentatively you and Seiji will spar together next week. The roster changes every week now."

Obito was stunned.

Isn't this a chance for him to perform well?

When the time comes, he will defeat Seiji handsomely in front of Rin and let her know that this guy was just lucky last time.

"I understand, Kaito-sensei!"

Obito said loudly.

"Um." Kaino nodded.

Obito's grades aren't that good, but his attitude towards learning is positive.

It just so happened that Obito's physical skills were among the last few, which would also allow Seiji, who had just transferred in, to adapt well.

"Then disband."

Kaito announced the dismissal.

And today's class has come to an end.

After school, Seiji still went to find Nohara Rin and asked her to teach him how to control chakra.

This time, Kakashi and Obito were both there.

Seiji continued to practice as hard as he did yesterday.

Today's content is still tree climbing, but they choose taller trees.

This requires much more stringent control of chakra for a long time.

When the evening light shone through the woods, Seiji was the first to choose to leave.

"Seiji-san, is it so early today?"

"I've been in Konoha for a month now, and I wanted to go out and try out some delicious food."

"So that's how it is."

Nohara Rin nodded.

Some of the things sold by small vendors are really good. She knows a little girl named Mitashi who often goes to a shop to drink red bean soup and likes to eat it with meatballs. (Unnecessary info but okay…)

After Seiji left, he did not go home immediately, but wandered around the streets of Konoha.

Finally, he pretended to be casual and entered an ordinary store called "Sushi Restaurant".

He had just entered and hadn't opened his mouth when a clerk came over.

"Are you here to eat our new dish, squid sushi."

The female clerk had short blond hair, and her apron could barely cover her broad-minded heart, revealing the grey top underneath.

Samui! (Smash...)

Seiji was deeply impressed by this woman.

This is one of the few women in the original work who could somehow compete with Tsunade.

Nothing else, just big.

After a while, Seiji withdrew his gaze, looked at the pretty face, and frowned slightly.

Why does Samui look like a teenager? This doesn't match the timeline in the original story at all.

Could it be that he traveled through time and caused some butterfly effect?

"Mm, I'll have the squid sushi then."

Seiji continued speaking along the lines of what Samui said.

Samui is from Kumo Village, and the fact that she came here must have been instructed by the top leaders of Kumo.

She came over to talk to him, probably because she recognized his face.

"You are the first guest to taste this new dish. Please follow me."

Samui led Seiji deeper into the restaurant. "This is a newly developed dish. It has the freshest squid. This is to ensure the best and freshest taste to the customer."

Soon, they arrived at a room where many glass fish tanks were stored.

There are many fish in the glass fish tank, and many bubbles are coming out of the filter pipe and floating on the water surface.

Samui didn't stop, but pressed her hands against the wall.

The black sealing pattern flashed, and a hole appeared in the wall.

A deep passage appeared in front of Seiji.

At the very back, a man with dreadlocks turned his head and looked somewhat conspicuous.

"Yotsuki Seiji, nice to meet you, I'm Samudo."

"Yotsuki is already a former surname. I am Uchiha Seiji now."

Seiji said calmly.

Samudo's hairstyle is quite normal in Konoha. During the first Naruto anime, Iruka was giving outdoor classes to Konohamaru and other students. Sarutobi Hiruzen came to inspect and explained to the students what the Will of Fire is.

There, there was a child with dreadlocks.

Apparently, it is quite common.
