Chapter 8 Class

classroom.

Aburame Shiki found a seat in the back row. He wanted to learn the family's forbidden techniques, and he couldn't very well do it in front of his teachers and classmates.

You should at least put on an act.

Aburame Shiichi plans to cultivate a powerful insect that will enable him to break through to the Kage level.

It's very difficult to cultivate an insect that can break through to the Kage level. Has the Aburame clan never tried to cultivate one from the past to the present?

The Aburame clan has been trying to cultivate them, but despite spending a lot of resources, they have not succeeded.

The phosphorus worm is considered relatively successful, but unfortunately, it has too many limitations.

The forbidden technique of poison pot is an important part of the insects envisioned by Shiki Aburame.

The Poison Pot Technique is a forbidden technique of the Aburame clan. It gathers corpses together and scatters poisonous insects among them, activates a barrier to make the insects multiply rapidly, and causes dead cells to produce poisonous gas. The gas is then spread through an explosion to attack all creatures that come into contact with the poisonous mist.

This insect was named the Parasitic Worm by Shiki Aburame.

In simple terms, the Parasitic Dead Worm = Parasitic Bad Worm + Phosphorus Bad Worm + Samehada's Devouring Ability + Second Tsuchikage's Split Technique + Hashirama Cells + Forbidden Technique: Poison Pot Technique.

The main body is the parasitic insect, which adds the ability of the phosphorus insect to kill instantly upon contact. It has the characteristic of Samehada to devour chakra and can split like the Second Tsuchikage's splitting technique. When it finally dies, it can also provide chakra through Hashirama's cells and use the forbidden technique, Poison Pot Technique, to create a small poison explosion.

It can attack single targets or multiple targets, making it extremely formidable.

It can be considered the masterpiece that Shizuka Aburame could conceive so far.

That's a good idea, but even if an average person came up with it, they wouldn't be able to accomplish it. It's not as simple as one plus one; the difficulty increases exponentially.

But Aburame Shiki is different. The Primal Gu gave him confidence. As long as the conditions are right, Aburame Shiki can use the Primal Gu to complete the parasitic worm.

"It's beautiful."

As he thought about it, Shiki Aburame couldn't help but grin.

Taiga Yoshino watched as the students entered the classroom one by one, found their seats, and sat down on the podium.

"Classmates, I am your homeroom teacher, Yoshino Taiga. I look forward to your guidance in the future."

The classroom, which had been noisy due to the students chatting amongst themselves, quieted down as they arrived.

"Hello teacher, my name is Uchiha Obito, nice to meet you."

Obito Uchiha had not yet calmed down from the Third Hokage's actions, and becoming acquainted with the Third Hokage made him particularly lively.

With Obito Uchiha leading the way, everyone became lively, and the quiet classroom became noisy again.

The students introduced themselves one by one.

Looking at these children, Yoshino Taiga felt a few years younger.

For a commoner ninja like Yoshino Taiga to become a Chunin was no easy feat; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he faced a near-death experience.

Ordinary ninjas with poor talent will generally remain at the bottom. For example, Might Guy was also a genin before he opened the Eight Gates and his talent was not apparent.

There are indeed so-called "eternal genin" (low-ranking ninjas), and quite a few of them, most of whom are ordinary ninjas lacking talent.

Normally it's alright; I can do some odd jobs, like weeding, finding cats, and taking out the trash to make a living.

However, in times of war, civilian ninjas are left to their fate, and the mortality rate is terrifying.

Yoshino Taiga was a commoner ninja who, after undergoing numerous trials, became a Chunin, making him the envy of ordinary commoner ninjas.

Not to mention that Yoshino Taiga joined the Ninja Academy and became a teacher.

You should know that the principal of the Ninja Academy is the Third Hokage.

Yoshino Taiga was able to teach this class that the Third Hokage was paying attention to. He received a request from the Third Hokage to evaluate the students and show the evaluation report to the Third Hokage.

He was extremely excited, just like Obito Uchiha.

This demonstrates the influence of the Third Hokage during this period. Not to mention the Third Hokage's personal efforts to win people over, there were countless people like Yoshino Taiga who were proud of the Third Hokage's actions.

"Today's first lesson will introduce our great Hokage throughout history."

Yoshino Taiga raised the corners of his mouth slightly, cleared his throat, and said, "Before the ninja village system, the ninja world was full of war. Individuals fought against individuals, individuals against clans, and clans fought against each other. Back then, even children your age had to pick up weapons and go to the battlefield to fight."

"At this time, someone stepped forward. In order to keep the children away from the battlefield and for the sake of peace, they gathered like-minded companions and together established Konoha."

"I know, it's the First Hokage!" the children answered enthusiastically, immediately showing a sense of participation.

"Yes, the First Hokage was the founder of Konoha and worked tirelessly for peace."

Yoshino Taiga replied.

"Next is the Second Hokage. The Second Hokage perfected the ninja village system. The current Ninja Academy was established by the Second Hokage. The Second Hokage deserves much credit for how strong Konoha is today."

Yoshino Taiga paused for a moment, then his tone became impassioned, and he became very serious.

"Finally, there is the Third Hokage, who is the strongest Hokage of all time. The Third Hokage was a ninja expert who was proficient in all five elemental ninjutsu and was extremely powerful among all the Hokage in history."

"Besides his immense strength, the Third Hokage's philosophy is also an invaluable treasure. His practice of the Will of Fire is something we should study for a lifetime."

"Where the leaves dance in the air, the fire will never die out. The flames will continue to illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout..."

Yoshino Taiga spoke eloquently.

Aburame Shiki nodded from time to time. At this moment, who knows if the Third Hokage was peeking? There was no harm in pretending, so why not?

I'm just amazed by Yoshino Taiga's audacity. Stop criticizing him! The strength of the First and Second Hokage is beyond doubt. As for the Will of Fire, it was proposed by Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.

I wonder if the Third Hokage would feel awkward hearing this.

The Third Hokage is in a rather awkward position right now. He's using the Telescope Technique to observe, and Yoshino Taiga is praising him. If he were alone, he would feel embarrassed but secretly pleased.

But now Danzo Shimura is right next to him. This is awkward.

After all, how could Danzo Shimura not know what Hiruzen Sarutobi's situation was?

"Hiruzen, it seems your loyalty is very solid, so there's no need to worry about the Uchiha threat. However, the Uchiha clan still needs to be monitored, and I need to replenish the power of Root."

Danzo Shimura didn't seem to care much about Hiruzen Sarutobi's reputation. Hiruzen Sarutobi was the current Hokage, so of course he was the strongest; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to intimidate the other four great ninja villages.

After Yoshino Taiga finished speaking and saw the students' enthusiastic reactions, he seized the opportunity to ask everyone to share their thoughts.

It was Aburame Shiki's turn.

"Konoha's achievements today are inseparable from the leadership of the Third Hokage, and even more so from those who have been silently dedicating themselves without asking for anything in return. And he, my friend, he is the real hero."

"I will face a thousand pointing fingers with a cold eye, and bow my head to serve the people like an ox."

When Shimura Danzo heard this, he felt that it was wonderful. Everyone who knew him, Shimura Danzo, disliked him, but Danzo didn't care at all and selflessly dedicated himself to Konoha.

It's not about glaring at a thousand pointing fingers while bowing one's head to serve the people like an ox.

When Shimura Danzo heard this, he was shocked. He hadn't expected that anyone among the new generation of Konoha would still remember him.

This... rounding up means that Danzo Shimura has deeply won people's hearts. Rounding up again means that Danzo has a high chance of becoming Hokage. Rounding up yet again means that Danzo will lead Konoha to dominate the ninja world.

Danzo Shimura was filled with passion as he contemplated his wonderful vision.

"Hiruzen, this child has a deep sense of Root. Entrust him to me, and I will train him to be a useful person to Konoha."

"No! This child possesses the Will of Fire; I will not entrust him to you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi decisively refused. Shiki Aburame had explained Shiki's situation to the Third Hokage, so Hiruzen Sarutobi was well aware of Shiki's potential and danger.

Aburame Shiitsu was already in great danger; if he were handed over to Shimura Danzo, things would be terrible.

Good grief, the last Ryoma Aburame wanted to kill him so badly that he couldn't even use the Will of Fire.

O inherently evil will of the root, I will not allow you to harm the seedlings.

Hiruzen Sarutobi subconsciously suppressed Danzo Shimura's power, unwilling to let Danzo's forces become completely out of control.

Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, Danzo Shimura felt as if he had been doused with cold water. He was jolted back to reality from his reverie and couldn't accept it. He angrily said, "You'll regret this, Hiruzen."

"I am the fire..."

Before Hiruzen Sarutobi could finish speaking, Danzo Shimura stormed out the door.

It seems she's really broken down.
