Chapter 12: Ninja Playing House
🕑 Added 2025-01-31 08:48:25 +0000 UTCAfter walking for a while, Makoto finally arrived near the Ninja School.
As he got closer, the number of people around him increased.
The area was filled with young children, ranging from six to twelve years old, accompanied by their parents who had come to drop them off at school.
The atmosphere buzzed with conversations as groups of students gathered, eagerly discussing their progress.
Some excitedly bragged about their progress in the Clone Technique, claiming they had almost mastered it. Others boasted that their Transformation Technique had reached a level where they looked indistinguishable from the real thing.
A few proudly talked about securing the top rank in their class during the last theoretical exam.
To Makoto, these conversations were nothing more than childish chatter.
He was no longer the same Ito Makoto as before and his perspective had changed drastically after awakening the chat group.
Compared to the others, he felt more than capable of teaching at the ninja school himself.
At that moment, the chat group became lively once again.
[Senju Tobirama: Is this the current Ninja School?]
[Makoto Ito: Yes, this is the Ninja School founded by you and I am studying here as well.]
[Senju Hashirama: Damn, this is amazing! Tobirama, you actually did something this incredible.I always thought you'd just spend your days obsessing over those Forbidden Techniques! But this… This is truly brilliant!]
[Senju Hashirama: Madara! Did you see this? Isn't this exactly what we always dreamed of? A world where children don't have to step onto the battlefield but can instead enjoy a carefree childhood]
[Senju Hashirama: Madara, it seems we were right to found Konoha together back then. Just look at these children and how happy they are! Isn't this proof that our vision was the right one?]
[Uchiha Madara: I see it. Shut up! I'm not blind! And they're just a bunch of kids playing house. What's so exciting about that?]
[Senju Hashirama: Tsk, Madara, why are you always so harsh? This was our dream, and now it has become a reality. You must be happy about it deep down! Hehe]
[Uchiha Madara: Hmph…]
Meanwhile, Tobirama who was observing the the chat, had his own thoughts.
[Senju Tobirama: Hmm, the Ninja School has grown so much since I first established it. It looks completely different now]
[Namikaze Minato: I have to say, the Ninja School founded by the Second Hokage is truly remarkable. It has given many civilian ninjas the opportunity to learn. And I am one of those civilian ninjas!]
[Senju Hashirama: Really?! Fourth, you're saying you were once a civilian ninja? And now you've risen to become Hokage? That's impressive! You must have been an incredibly talented child!]
[Namikaze Minato: Hahaha]
[Uchiha Madara: Tsk, a bunch of idiots]
As always, the age-old rivalry between Tobirama and the Uchiha resurfaced.
[Senju Tobirama: Uchiha Madara, Why are you always spoiling the mood? The Uchiha are truly an evil clan]
[Uchiha Izuna: Shut up, Tobirama! Do you want to fight?!]
[Uchiha Shisui: ...]
[Uchiha Fugaku: Ancestors...]
[Uchiha Mikoto: Ah, this is…embarassing]
However, Madara was far from done with his words.
[Uchiha Madara: What kind of ninja school is this? Civilian ninjas? Don't make me laugh. This is nothing more than a place where children play house]
[Uchiha Madara: Just listen to what these kids are talking about. Transformation Technique, Clone Technique, Body Replacement Technique, and shuriken throwing? These are all trash]
Tobirama's patience was reaching its limit.
[Senju Tobirama: Madara, Don't look down on the Ninja School I built!]
But Madara refused to back down.
[Uchiha Madara: Am I wrong?]
[Uchiha Madara: Do you honestly believe Konoha would willingly hand over those forbidden ninjutsu to these so-called civilian ninjas? You're delusional.
Look at what they're learning—Clone Technique, Body Replacement Technique, Transformation Technique. I stopped using these tricks when I was three!]
[Senju Tobirama: If we're talking about the family with the most ninjutsu, that would undoubtedly be the Uchiha clan, wouldn't it? With your Sharingan, you can copy ninjutsu at will. I wonder if the Uchiha clan are willing to share these techniques?]
[Uchiha Madara: Hmph! Don't mention the Uchiha clan in front of me. They have long ceased to be of any concern to me.
The moment I left the Uchiha, I unilaterally expelled them all from the clan]
It was clear that Uchiha Madara harbored deep resentment toward the Uchiha clan for not following him out of Konoha. Tobirama was never one to miss a good opportunity to mock Madara.
He immediately caught between his words.
[Senju Tobirama: What a joke! You expelled them? More like they expelled you from the Uchiha clan. You're nothing more than a Konoha traitor]
[Uchiha Izuna: Shut up, Tobirama. You're not allowed to talk about my brother like that. Do you want to fight?]
[Senju Tobirama: Fine by me! Who's afraid of whom?!]
The argument raged for a while before eventually fizzling out.
In the end, it was pointless.
Tobirama wouldn't truly engage in battle with Madara. After all, he knew he wasn't strong enough to defeat him, so what reason would he have to provoke a fight he couldn't win?
He was just messing with Madara and Izuna.
...........
Meanwhile, Ito Makoto was approaching the ninja school. Finally, someone couldn't hold back their curiosity any longer and spoke up.
[Uzumaki Kushina: Group leader, You seem to be around the same age as Naruto, right? Do you know him?]
[Makoto Ito: You mean Uzumaki Naruto? Of course, We're good friends and we often compete for the ranks in class]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Really? Does that mean Naruto excels in his studies? Does he frequently rank first? That's amazing, My son is so great. Wait a second, Uzumaki Naruto? Shouldn't it be Namikaze Naruto?]
[Makoto Ito: Ah, it's Uzumaki Naruto! And I think you might have misunderstood something… The two of us are actually competing for the last rank]
[Uchiha Madara: Pfft! Hahaha! Kid, so you're hilarious!]
[Senju Tobirama: Last place? Is that even something worth competing for?]
[Senju Hashirama: ....]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Last place?!]
At that moment, Kushina rubbed her temples in confusion.'Why is my son competing for the last place in class?'
How embarrassing!
[Uzumaki Kushina: But wait, something doesn't add up. Naruto should be named Namikaze Naruto. Why did he inherit my Uzumaki surname instead?]
[Namikaze Minato: Could it be that the Third Hokage did this for Naruto's protection? After all, I sealed the Nine Tails inside him, and I had many enemies back then. Not letting Naruto inherit my surname might have been a way to keep him safe…]
[Uzumaki Kushina: Is that so?]
