Sakura Haruno is Usefull

"Last group today, fifty laps around the playground, everyone get ready."

The young teacher with aqua blue hair led a group of little kids and started the final stage of physical training.

Hearing the teacher's words, the students couldn't help but complain.

"Here we go again~~"

"It's only a ten-minute break~~"

"Teacher Mizuki, please let us go~~"

Even though the students begged for mercy, the young teacher named Mizuki showed no sign of leniency.

"Thirty seconds to prepare; if you're not ready, I'll add ten more laps."

After hearing the teacher's threat, the students immediately quieted down and quickly lined up.

They stood in two rows.

sakura slowed down her slightly rapid breathing and joined the line with her classmates.

"Ready, run!"

Following Mizuki's command, a group of six-year-old children began their final training of the day.

Iruka stood beside Mizuki, looking at the report card in his hand.

"Iruka, what are you looking at?"

Mizuki noticed his friend looking at the report card and approached him with a smile.

"Sakura's performance was outstanding today."

Iruka looked at Haruno Sakura's name on the report card. She was ranked at the top in shuriken throwing, sprint, and cross-country obstacle courses.

The second son of the Uchiha family had fallen to second place.

Sakura took steady steps, trying to calm her uneven breathing, and ran forward.

She had no intention of hiding her abilities, showing off everything she had.

Even though her body had used up a lot of energy from previous training, she was still slowly pulling away from her classmates.

The only person who could run ahead of her now was her future husband, Uchiha Sasuke.

But that was supposed to be the future.

Uchiha Sasuke was now very anxious.

He hadn't expected to be surpassed by an inconspicuous classmate.

Whether it was shuriken throwing or anything else, he lost to this pink-haired classmate.

What made him even more embarrassed was that the other person was a girl.

He didn't want to lose to a girl; he wanted to be as great as his brother.

In this final endurance training, he absolutely didn't want to lose!

Uchiha Sasuke tried his best, but still couldn't shake off the girl behind him.

Lap 30...

Lap 35...

Lap 40...

Haruno Sakura overtook him...

Lap 45...

Haruno Sakura left him behind...

Lap 50...

He, the second son of the Uchiha family, lost.

Uchiha Sasuke sat on the ground, gasping for air, while his classmates around him collapsed without caring about appearances.

He looked at the girl propped up on her knees, beads of sweat dripping from the ends of her pink hair, and clenched his fists tightly.

"Sakura-chan is amazing..."

A weak voice sounded, and Sasuke couldn't help but look toward it, only to see a blond boy staring intently at the only figure still standing.

"First place, Haruno Sakura."

Upon hearing Mizuki announce the result, Haruno Sakura felt like her lungs were about to explode.

Damn, how could that guy run so fast? He almost took my first place!

Haruno Sakura glared fiercely at Uchiha Sasuke, then tucked her hair behind her ears and sat down next to Ino, who lay on the ground, unable to get up.

???

Uchiha Sasuke was a bit confused. Did that girl just glare at him?

Did he somehow offend her?

"Sasuke, over here!"

After school, Sasuke left feeling dejected. As soon as he stepped out of the school gate, he saw a figure waving at him.

"Onii-chan!"

Sasuke's expression immediately brightened, and he ran excitedly toward his brother, Uchiha Itachi.

"What's wrong? You don't seem very happy today."

The black-haired boy gently patted his brother's head and spoke softly.

"...I lost to a girl in physical training today."

Sasuke's face tensed, but he shyly recounted the whole story to Uchiha Itachi.

"Is that so? Next time, to surpass her, just do your best, Sasuke."

Uchiha Itachi's expression didn't change as he gently encouraged Sasuke.

To him, this was a good thing. Sasuke now had a goal at school.

This way, his little brother had one more motivation to work hard.

"Hehe~~"

Sasuke wanted to hold Uchiha Itachi's hand, but because it was after school and there were a lot of people around, he felt a bit embarrassed.

At that moment, a pink shadow caught his eye.

Sasuke spoke quietly to Uchiha Itachi:

"Onii-chan, that's her."

Uchiha Itachi followed Sasuke's gaze and saw a little girl in pink. He was taken aback.

He had expected the girl who could surpass Sasuke to be a very strong person.

But from her appearance, she looked weak and fragile.

Listening to his brother's slightly resentful tone, Uchiha Itachi tapped Sasuke's forehead and said seriously:

"She's your classmate. It's rude to use that tone."

As if sensing something, Sakura turned and glanced at them.

Uchiha Itachi looked at the girl with pink hair and green eyes, nodded at her with a slight smile.

And Haruno Sakura saw Uchiha Itachi quickly disappear around the corner.

Oh my god, Uchiha Itachi.

Stay away, dude!

Don't get involved~~

Slip away~~

Hokage's Office

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his eyes strain after dealing with government affairs all day. He stretched in his office chair, his old body making creaking sounds.

Then he picked up the physical fitness report card that Iruka had just handed over.

The three words "Haruno Sakura" were prominently listed in first place.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen a bit surprised.

Previously, that position had belonged to Uchiha Sasuke.

Not only was she excelling academically, but she was also among the top in physical fitness...

They were both civilian ninjas and both outstanding.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but think of the young Hokage he had once had high hopes for.

Well, if she's truly capable of overcoming the challenges Iruka has set, then let her pursue her ambitions.

Sakura really had no energy left today.

Not only did she have to complete a 10-kilometer endurance run in the morning, but the school also prepared an intense combo training session for her in the afternoon. Her six-year-old body was already at its limit.

After dinner, sakura quickly took a shower and fell straight into bed, falling into a deep sleep.

Time passed quickly, and a short month flew by.

And Sakura reached her first level in obtaining the Yin Seal.

First graders could skip the second-grade exam.

The entire exam room was empty, with only three

people present: Sakura, Iruka, and Mizuki.

"sakura, the time limit is two hours. Remember to check it when you're done."

Iruka placed the test paper in front of Sakura and spoke calmly.
