Chapter 23: Chapter 22
After listening to Naruto's retelling of the entire exercise process, Luo Yi felt much relieved.
While it's unclear if the drill differed from the original story from Sasuke and Sakura's perspective, Naruto didn't hear Kakashi say a word to them about Luo Yi.
It seems that Kakashi completely regards him as an "out-of-specification" existence. Comparing him with Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura can be said to be more harmful than beneficial.
So Luo Yi accompanied Naruto to have a bowl of ramen, and after the meal he took him home, and they agreed to meet again at the "Task Assignment Office" in Konoha Village the next morning.
Is the mission finally about to begin?
"Wait...it seems like it's still a little bit short of something." Luo Yi thought, supporting his cheek.
Before the "Wave Kingdom Arc" officially begins, they will also do some entry-level simple tasks in or around the village, but I can't remember what they are exactly.
"That doesn't matter. The most important thing is that I learned that if I hadn't participated, the plot would not deviate from the original. I optimistically speculate that other important historical events would not change because of my arrival."
But the risk still exists. Luo Yi doesn't know whether Naruto can still get away from the wooden stake if he doesn't go to check the results of the exercise.
What if the protagonist of the story was strangled to death at the beginning? Would the world collapse?
...
Back at the Hyuga residence, Hanabi was halfway through her afternoon training and was sitting on the edge of the courtyard to rest.
The little girl had consumed a lot of her physical strength and chakra, and she didn't have the energy to guard the door with a roll of her eyes. She didn't realize that Luo Yi was back until he walked beside her.
"Thank you for your hard work. Is the training process going smoothly?"
"Yeah, I'll definitely pass the entrance exam at the beginning of next month. What about you?"
"Me? I don't have to take the entrance exam."
"Humph…"
The school system of the Ninja School is very strange. A school year is divided into three semesters. The first semester is from early April to mid-July, followed by a one-and-a-half-month summer vacation; the second semester is from early September to the end of December, followed by a ten-day winter vacation; the third semester is from early January to the end of March, followed by a fifteen-day spring vacation.
Today is the first day of spring break, although it means nothing to Hanabi and Luo Yi.
The former is because they have not yet enrolled, and the latter is because they have already graduated.
Both of them signed up for the next ninja school, but the gap between them is even bigger than the current gap between Naruto and Sasuke.
"Speaking of which, Hanabi, can the people of the Hyuga family use the five-attribute escape techniques, such as fire escape?" Luo Yi remembered that in the Ninja School, "Fire escape: Great Fireball Technique" was used as a typical case to explain the theoretical knowledge of Ninja techniques.
But from my impression, no one from the Hyuga family has ever used any ninjutsu or illusion techniques other than the gentle fist technique, they are very specialized.
It really won't work. Today's young girls are too closely tied to me, and the probability of them being affected by the butterfly effect is too high.
After saving the protagonist twice personally, Luo Yi became more and more worried about Hua Huo.
"Well... the most basic ninjutsu is easy to learn, but I don't really have any escape techniques." Hanabi held the tip of her index finger and thought about all the ninjas in her family.
What is Konoha's king of academic bias?
However, it is easy to understand that the Hyuga clan inherited the blood of Otsutsuki Hamura, the younger brother of the Six Paths Sage, not the Ninja Clan. They are strong in physical skills, weak in Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, and their chakra is also similar to the positive attribute of strengthening the body.
"Isn't it wiser to learn ninja tools than to learn ninjutsu..." Luo Yi remembered that when he only had Yangtun Chakra, he knew nothing about ninjutsu.
If Hanabi is forced to learn ninjutsu, it would be good if she gets half the result with twice the effort, and it is more likely that her efforts will be wasted.
"Ninja tools?" Hanabi was a little confused.
Her understanding of ninja tools is limited to her family's secret technique "Baguazhang Huitian", and the standard of mastering it is to be able to use this move to deflect all ninja tools that attack her.
"Well, the future... probably will be ten or twenty years from now. By then, the ninja tools will be very powerful, and they will not be able to be resisted by "Kaiten". " Until now, Luo Yi still thinks that it is outrageous that Grandpa Bo cheated in the Chunin Exam by using "scientific ninja tools".
"Really?" The little girl widened her eyes in surprise.
"I'm just guessing. Don't underestimate the scientists who are currently immersed in research." The boy laughed.
At that time, it was unknown whether I would still exist in this world.
"We all know this. Luo Yi is very powerful."
"Hehe...Okay, I'll accompany you in the next training?"
"Well... Luo Yi is too strong. I can't beat him."
"How about I just use one hand?"
"Hmph... No, I have to give it my all."
So, with Luo Yi's constant injection of Yang Release Chakra to "encourage" her, Hanabi's limbs became limp and she could no longer stand up.
...
Soon it was the next day.
Hinata went out early as usual, saying that before leaving yesterday, teacher Kurenai Yuhi had taken the Genin of Team 8 to take on a D-level mission, and they would gather directly at the gate of Konoha Village today.
"Didn't expect that the first mission would require us to leave the village?" Rizu was quite emotional.
The Byakugan Princess, who was always worried about being coveted by other countries before yesterday, is going to take the initiative to step outside the village today and become a full-fledged ninja on her own.
"Yes, we need to help the farmers near the village to harvest vegetables." Hinata nodded seriously.
Hiss... this ninja seems a little informal?
And Uncle Rizu... No, Father-in-law, what's with that look of approval and relief on your face?
Just because of Luo Yi's time travel, the entire Hyuga family became a comedian twenty years earlier?
He didn't believe in evil and went to the village's task distribution office after breakfast. It was located in the lobby on the first floor just below the Hokage's office. As the name suggests, it was the place where the registered ninjas of Konoha Village accepted and submitted tasks.
Kakashi was not late today. Before eight o'clock, Team 7 and the special "apprentice Genin" Luo Yi gathered here.
So why are the Third Hokage and Iruka sitting behind the desk at the Mission Dispatching Office? Shouldn't Hiruzen be in his office, and shouldn't Iruka be at the Ninja Academy?
There is a kind of simple beauty in the early stages of the game where there are not enough NPCs, and the main supporting characters are used as bricks, moved wherever they are needed.
"Good morning, Grandpa Hokage, Sensei Iruka!" Naruto greeted warmly.
The remaining Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi didn't think there was anything unusual.
Okay, I'm the abnormal one, Luo Yi complained silently in his heart.
"Since this is the first external mission accepted by your team 7, here are three D-level missions for you to choose from." Hiruzen, who played the role of an office clerk, was quite dedicated and directly handed over three pieces of paper.
"Mission 1: Help the farmers outside Konoha Village harvest vegetables."
Frog fun, something is wrong, let's take another look.
"Mission 2: Help the Fourth Master take care of the children."
Noo... Maybe, maybe there will be a turn for the better. Isn't it true that this kind of passionate and orthodox story is always interspersed with all kinds of nonsense in the early stages?
"Mission 3: Help Mrs. Chishimi find her beloved cat, Tiger, who ran away from home."
Collapse, one more look will...
and many more!
Luo Yi remembered that Team 7 had taken on the C-level mission of "protecting the bridge construction workers" and set off for the Land of Waves on the day they captured the pet cat.
If Kakashi had chosen to look for a cat today...
"Okay, then let's go help harvest the vegetables today. After all, it's the busy farming season, and the farmers' harvest is related to our food." Kakashi took the leftmost card without hesitation.
Well, how could one jump from a D-level mission to a C-level on the first day? Luo Yi was only disappointed for a short while.
The original work does not explain when the adventure in the Kingdom of Waves will begin. But stay patient, the iconic cat-finding mission has already appeared, and this kind of mission will not make the client wait too long.
"Okay, Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, let's get ready to go!" Kakashi called to the students who were still looking around.
"Hey? Teacher Kakashi, where are I?" Luo Yi thought he had been left out.
"You, just stay here for the next two days. Your mission is to learn from Iruka and Hokage and improve your strength quickly." Kakashi said and winked at the two people behind the counter.
"It's like this, Luo Yi, Hokage has taken into consideration that you still lack the theoretical training as a ninja, so he decided to take two days to give you a quick tutorial. I hope you can understand." Iruka explained reasonably.
What do you mean, ideological and political courses? It's possible.
But it also makes sense. If a ninja has problems with theoretical literacy before becoming a combat force, he will be more likely to pose a threat to the village.
Luo Yi also needs more time to recall the details in the original work and formulate a response plan in advance.
"That's great. It sounds like I can get direct instruction from the Hokage." Sakura's expression was filled with obvious envy.
Sasuke also felt that it would be better to use the time to study and practice instead of doing boring tasks.
Only Naruto was waiting at the door with high morale.
