The man standing at the top of the ninja world

After all the students had completed their assessment, it was already noon. Fujita Takuto handed Konoha's ninja forehead protectors to the students who passed the assessment in turn, and told them to take a half-day off in the afternoon and come back to school tomorrow morning.

There are more than a dozen classes in Nagato's current class, and the total number of students taking the graduation assessment is hundreds. After the assessment is completed, in the afternoon, the head teachers of these more than a dozen classes must assist the Third Hokage to pass these exams. The students are divided into groups and choose the ninja to lead them.

After all, there is no way to do these two things before the assessment results come out.

As for the Third Hokage, Nagato asked him to choose the ninja to lead before he even conducted the assessment, so he didn't worry about whether he would fail graduation and become a genin.

Well, this problem is even simpler. If the strongest student in the school cannot pass the assessment, then all students will not need to graduate.

The next morning, Ninja School.

After the class bell rang, the classroom was in full swing while waiting for Takuto Fujita to arrive. Grouping and leading ninjas are Konoha's regulations. The students knew it very well, so they discussed it with the classmates in front and behind them with great interest. Think about who you will be grouped with, and what kind of person the senior ninja who will lead you will be.

A few minutes later, Fujita Takuto walked into the classroom and stood on the podium. He looked at the many students below and felt a little emotional.

The system of the Ninja School is that a teacher will start teaching students when they enter school at the age of seven, and will teach them until they graduate at the age of ten. He has been getting along with these students day and night for three years, and they have developed deep feelings. Now they are about to separate, and it is inevitable. He was a little reluctant to give up, and since this was the first group of students he taught after switching from combat ninja to civilian ninja, it touched him even more.

After calming down, Fujita Takuto said: "Classmates, from today onwards you will graduate from the ninja school and officially become a genin of Konoha Village."

"After becoming genin, you will form teams in groups of three, and each team will be led by a senior ninja assigned by the Hokage to complete the entrusted tasks together."

"Then, let me announce your respective groups."

After saying that, he took out a list from his pocket, opened it and read: "First class, Uzumaki Nagato, Uzumaki Kushina, Haruno Ou."

Nagato, who was looking at Fujita Takuto with his hand on his chin, raised his eyebrows. He was the first one, and his teammates were Uzumaki Kushina and Haruno Ou.

According to regulations, the members of the team should be allocated based on their respective characteristics. Try to make sure that the three of them can complement each other, so that one plus one plus one is greater than three.

But just like the Inoka Butterfly combination has been bound for generations, Nagato had previously guessed that the Third Hokage would put him together with Uzumaki Kushina, Konan, and Yahiko, but the difference with Inoka Butterfly is that they have a total of four Personally, there is one more member than the normal team members. I don’t know what the Third Hokage will do.

Now it seems that the Third Hokage chose to separate the four of them, let Uzumaki Kushina be on the team with him, and then added Haruno Zhao who was friends with Nagato.

"Ah." Yahiko, who was sitting behind Nagato, wailed, and then said to Konan with a disappointed face: "Konan, we are not in the same group as Nagato."

"Yes." Xiaonan nodded sadly.

"Yahiko, Konan." Nagato turned around, looked at the disappointed two people, and comforted: "You two don't have to be so disappointed. Anyway, we all live together and can see each other every day. Even if the groups are different, it's not a big deal. ."

"And we might have the opportunity to complete missions together in the future."

After listening to Nagato's words, the two of them looked a little better, but they were still a little depressed.

Yahiko said listlessly: "Nagato, although what you said is right, I still can't accept it. A year ago, I started imagining us becoming teammates to complete various tasks together, but in the end it turned out that We couldn’t be together.”

"Me too, I have also imagined that we encountered a powerful enemy in the mission and then cooperated with each other to defeat him." Xiaonan said with the same loss.

Upon seeing this, Nagato knew that the depressed mood of the two people could not be reversed for the time being, so he had no choice but to smile helplessly, and then turned back to listen to Takuto Fujita who continued to read out the allocation of members of the group.

He was not interested in anyone else, he just wanted to know which group Konan and Yahiko would be in. After waiting for several groups, he finally heard their names.

"Class [-], Konan, Yahiko, Namikaze Minato."

Nagato frowned slightly, then relaxed. In the original book, these three people were all Jiraiya's disciples. Now they were divided into a group. He refused to let Jiraiya be his leading ninja. In the end, Yahiko and the three Could it be that the personal leader of the ninja is Jiraiya?

After a while, Takuto Fujita announced all the groups, looked at the students in front of him and said: "Students, your leading ninja will come to take you away next."

Then, he sighed inaudibly.

According to his experience, only about half of these dozens of students could survive the mission and survive to adulthood. If a world war breaks out again before then, there is no telling how many of them would survive to adulthood. .

"Goodbye, classmates." After saying this, Takuto Fujita turned around and walked out of the classroom.

As soon as Takuto Fujita left, the classroom quickly became noisy again, but this time the topic of discussion no longer included grouping, but all became about who the senior ninja who would lead him would be.

"I wonder who will lead us."

"It would be nice if my leading ninja was a jounin."

"Dream on you, your strength is so poor, how could Hokage-sama let a jounin lead you? Only outstanding students like Nagato-kun can be led by a jounin."

After a few minutes, the teacher's door was pushed open, and a burly man with white hair walked into the classroom.

Uzumaki Kushina looked at the visitor, curled her lips, and muttered in a low voice: "Damn pervert."

The pervert mentioned by Uzumaki Kushina was none other than Jiraiya, and Uzumaki Kushina is still bitter about him peeping into the women's bathhouse.

After Jiraiya walked in, he first glanced at Nagato with complicated eyes, then looked at Konan, Yahiko, and Minato Namikaze, and said: "Yahiko, Konan, Minato Namikaze, you three come with me."

A few days ago, the Third Hokage told him about Nagato's final choice of Tsunade. Although Jiraiya was disappointed with this, he had nothing to do with the Third Hokage's decision.

However, he did not give up on accepting Nagato as his disciple. Although most of the team members would choose to lead the ninja team as their disciples, this was not absolute. Some people would also become disciples of other ninjas.

Nagato has only become Tsunade's subordinate now, not Tsunade's apprentice. Jiraiya believes that he can eventually become Nagato's master like the Great Toad Sage said, and train Nagato to be a great ninja. The savior who brings lasting peace to the world.

And although Jiraiya could not become Nagato's leading ninja as he wished, the Third Hokage did not let him go, but ordered him to lead a team of genin.

According to the regulations of Konoha, every ninja has the obligation to become a genin leading ninja after becoming a chuunin, and to cultivate new forces for the village.

Of course, for some talented ninjas, this rule will be looser. After all, youth is the period when ninja strength improves the fastest. Being used as a leading ninja will have a great impact on the improvement of strength.

These genius ninjas usually wait until they are in their 20s and their strength reaches a stable period before letting them serve as the leading ninjas of the genin. This is the case with the three ninjas. They have not completed this task yet, so this time the Third Hokage took them all Sent out.

After all, Jiraiya is already one of the top ten masters in Konoha Village, so the Third Hokage gave him a lot of autonomy, that is, he can choose any member of his team except Nagato.

In the end, Jiraiya chose Yahiko, Konan, whom he had always felt he was destined to have, and Namikaze Minato, who was second only to Nagato, Uzumaki Kushina, and Konan among the students of this class.

Nagato frowned slightly, then relaxed, thinking silently in his heart: "The guess just now has come true, Jiraiya has really become the leading ninja of Yahiko and the three of them."

"Although they have changed history, they still got together with Jiraiya. If this continues, there is a high possibility that the three of them will become Jiraiya's apprentices in the end. The inertia of the plot still exists."

Tens of seconds after Jiraiya left with Yahiko and the others, Tsunade walked in.

As soon as she entered the classroom, before she could say anything, a student exclaimed: "Tsunade-sama."

"It's really Tsunade-sama."

"I didn't expect that among the teachers leading the team this time, there would be a master like Sannin-sama."

The rest of the students recognized Tsunade, and most of them had a look of surprise on their faces.

Tsunade and Jiraiya are both one of the Sannin. The reason why there is such a big gap between the students when facing Jiraiya and Tsunade is because they didn't recognize Jiraiya at all just now.

After Jiraiya ended the war in the Land of Rain, he only stayed in Konoha for a month before leaving the village and traveling in the ninja world. He stayed there for more than two years and did not return to Konoha until a few days ago, so although he is currently in Konoha is very famous and everyone knows it, but the new generation of students have never seen him in person, so they don't know what he looks like, otherwise they would have been excited just now.

Unlike Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru have always stayed in Konoha, so the students know her appearance very well.

Tsunade didn't pay attention to these exclamations. Her eyes quickly drifted over the students, and finally stopped on Nagato and Uzumaki Kushina. She said casually: "Students from the first class, follow me."
