It's better to be a rebel ninja than to be a Hokage

The division of the graduates into ninja classes at the briefing was just as Naruto knew in his previous life.

Naruto, Haruno Sakura, and Uchiha Sasuke from Team 7.

Team 8's Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka, and Shino Aburame.

Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru, and Akimichi Chouji from Team 10.

In addition, there is the third class that graduated from the Ninja Academy one year earlier than Naruto and his friends, including Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee, and Tenten.

The Twelve Guardians of Konoha have been formed.

Naruto silently thought about the characteristics and backgrounds of the ninjas in other ninja teams, and couldn't help but sigh at the Third Hokage's diversified expansion of the Konoha ninja system.

Class three is for physical enhancement, class eight is for perception enhancement, and class ten is for tactics enhancement.

Especially Class 8 and Class 10.

The six people in the two classes are all from prominent families of the Konoha Ninja Village. They have their own unique family secret inheritance and will not be deeply involved in Konoha's teaching system.

Even the Hokage couldn't just randomly insert them into the team of other ordinary ninjas.

The third generation simply grouped the members of these prominent families together according to the characteristics of their bloodline limits or secret techniques to form classes with enhanced characteristics.

However, among the four ninja teams that the Twelve Ninjas of Konoha belong to, probably only Team 7 is not composed entirely according to the logic of characteristic enhancement.

Although the public was not aware of the Nine-Tails Rebellion twelve years ago, the Konoha high-ranking officials knew that the Nine-Tails wreaked havoc in the village because it was controlled by the Sharingan.

Extending this logic, after Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, becomes a ninja, he will naturally be assigned to Kakashi's mission team, which is famous in the ninja world for his Sharingan.

As the last member of the Uchiha clan in Konoha, Uchiha Sasuke can only rely on Kakashi, who also has a Sharingan, to teach him how to use the Sharingan.

There is also the consideration that when Naruto might go berserk because of the Nine-Tails, Sasuke would use the Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails to avoid another Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Of course it was impossible for Kakashi, a fake who was not from the Uchiha clan, to control the rampage of the Nine-Tails.

The only way is to rely on the grown-up Sasuke, the orthodox Uchiha clan.

The legacy of the Fourth Hokage, the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails.

The orphan of the Uchiha clan and the legitimate owner of the Sharingan.

One has a very bad reputation among the public, and the other has a very bad reputation among senior officials.

Putting Naruto and Sasuke in the same ninja team, the third person in the team needs to be carefully considered.

First of all, it is absolutely impossible to include members of Konoha's ninja family, so we can only find ordinary ninjas without strong background.

Whether it is Naruto who has the blood of the Uzumaki clan, or Sasuke who has a powerful bloodline limit, they both have extremely high growth limits.

Therefore, even if the third person is a ninja of ordinary origin, he still needs to have some special skills.

Then Sakura Haruno, who scored full marks in ninja theory at the ninja school, is the best choice.

The fact that she could get full marks in the written test shows that she is a good learner.

As long as she can grow up successfully, even if Haruno Sakura is not suitable for front-line combat, she will eventually become an indispensable presence in logistics.

Sakura Haruno in the original work was also aware of her own strengths and weaknesses, and according to this logic, she chose to become Tsunade's apprentice and learn medical ninjutsu.

But in Naruto's opinion, Haruno Sakura is now...

She is just a naive girl who was born in an ordinary family and grew up being pampered as an ordinary person.

My mind is full of Uchiha Sasuke.

"Naruto!"

After the briefing session, the official division into classes will not take place until the afternoon when we meet with the class-leading jonin.

There is a two-hour lunch break, and after lunch, there is not much rest time left.

But Naruto knew that Hatake Kakashi, who was in charge of Team 7, would be several hours late.

He wouldn't wait in the classroom like an idiot.

After the Book of Seales incident, Naruto successfully brought the Shadow Clone Technique from the dark to the light.

This is the first time since I traveled through time that I can practice openly.

He had been practicing with the help of his shadow clone these days and had become a little selfless.

The fatigue accumulated after the shadow clone was released made Naruto a little tired, so he was preparing to go home and have a good sleep.

But Haruno Sakura suddenly called out to him.

Naruto stopped and looked back at Haruno Sakura, who was still holding the lunch box in her hand.

Naruto then remembered that according to the plot of the original work, Sakura Haruno should be looking for Sasuke to have dinner together.

The orphan's subsequent remarks also criticized more than half of the people in Konoha.

So, an ordinary little girl like Haruno Sakura who was born in the ninja world actually lives in another world, and that’s why she is so unlikable before she grows up.

"I don't know where Sasuke is."

Before Haruno Sakura could ask again, Naruto answered with a lukewarm attitude.

After saying that, Naruto started walking again, no longer paying attention to Haruno Sakura.

He was very tired and had no intention of paying attention to Haruno Sakura.

Naruto didn't feel any dislike for Haruno Sakura, he was just too lazy to pay attention to her.

After all, although Naruto in the original work had a miserable life experience, the top management prohibited people from talking about Naruto's life experience.

Without knowing the whole story, the 11 or 12-year-old Haruno Sakura saw Naruto as nothing more than a daring troublemaker.

She is so uneducated that she would even graffiti maliciously on the Hokage, who represents authority, and she always pesters her without understanding the atmosphere.

Anyway, in the original work, both Naruto and Sakura Haruno had little emotional intelligence in the early stages. Since they are both like this, no one can blame the other.

In the original work, the main reason why Haruno Sakura hated Naruto was because she felt that Naruto was always interfering with her relationship with Sasuke.

But in this world, Iruka died unexpectedly in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Neither the original Naruto nor the current Naruto has any interest in her at all.

Naruto and her have no connection at all. In the ninja school, Naruto and Haruno Sakura are not as familiar with each other as Naruto and Hyuga Hinata.

And because of Iruka's death.

The original Naruto in this world had always exuded a gloomy and fierce aura, which made Haruno Sakura afraid of Naruto for a long time.

"No, I'm here to see you, Naruto!"

Seeing that Naruto was really about to leave, Haruno Sakura hurriedly called out to him.

Naruto was stunned by Sakura Haruno's words, and he looked at Sakura Haruno in front of him again.

Perhaps it was because Naruto's former hostility, which was difficult for people to approach, had left too deep an impression on her. At this moment when being stared at by Naruto, Haruno Sakura actually seemed a little restrained.

"Looking for me? Why?"

Naruto asked curiously.

Why is this little girl suddenly looking for him instead of pestering Uchiha Sasuke?

"We have been assigned to the same class now, so we will be together for a long time..."

Haruno Sakura raised the bento in her hand.

"So I thought, we should have lunch together as Team 7 or something... But I didn't find Sasuke, I only found you, Naruto."

"It's a pity that we didn't find Sasuke, but I don't know Naruto at all, and we didn't talk much at school... So how about we have lunch together and get to know each other? As for Sasuke, we can do it together next time..."

Seeing that his proposal had not received Naruto's response yet.

Haruno Sakura hesitated for a while, then asked tentatively, "Is it okay?"

"No."

Naruto replied.

This time he really didn't intend to bother with Haruno Sakura anymore.

After being pestered by Haruno Sakura for a while, the tiredness that I had been suppressing has now rushed to my head.

Besides, according to the plan, he would defect from Konoha after the Chunin Exam.

He also doesn't need to do any useless work of "getting to know each other".

Looking at Naruto leaving, Haruno Sakura put down the lunch box in her hand again.

The man she liked, Sasuke, had never shown any interest in her.

When she saw Naruto alone, she finally dispelled her fear of Naruto and mustered up the courage to talk to him.

Naruto rejected her without hesitation.

"Am I really that unattractive?"

Haruno Sakura falls into self-doubt.
