But it's probably difficult to estimate.
Naruto Uzumaki is not afraid of genjutsu, which deprives Sasuke Uchiha of his greatest advantage.
Kitazawa let out a soft "hmm".
He suddenly came up with a new way of conducting monthly exams: introducing formal ninjas.
This sounds absurd, but upon closer examination, it might not be impossible.
The current genius class, especially the top eighteen, generally has a level of Chunin or above.
They lack experience compared to regular ninjas, and experience is gained through battle.
Let them spar with real ninjas to gain combat experience.
No, that's not the point.
Kitazawa slammed his fist in his fist, his face beaming with excitement.
Because he thought of the system mission for the new Konoha Legendary Sannin.
If a new Legendary Sannin of Konoha is to emerge, besides strength, the most important thing is fame.
If the students in the genius class could defeat a regular ninja, wouldn't their fame skyrocket?
Given enough time, new Sannin of Konoha will naturally emerge, and he will then receive the reward of Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands.
However, the specific implementation still needs to be planned.
With that thought in mind, Kitazawa headed towards Kurenai's house.
Halfway there, his shadow clone returned automatically, allowing him to learn the details of Nagato's treatment.
Overall, everything went very smoothly.
After all, Nagato used so many precious medicinal herbs.
However, to his surprise, it was Xiao Nan.
Konan stayed in Konoha Village, citing that although Nagato's legs had been healed, they still needed to be observed.
That way, if there's a problem with his legs, she can go directly to Kitazawa.
The next day was Thursday.
After the morning classes ended, Kitazawa went to the Hokage's office.
As soon as he opened the door, he smelled a faint aroma of food.
"Why haven't I seen Senior Sister Jingyin?"
Kitazawa looked at Tsunade, who was sitting alone on the sofa eating lunch, and asked.
She leaned forward, her clothes swaying precariously.
"Her work isn't finished yet."
Tsunade chewed on a fried shrimp and asked, "What urgent matter brings you here at this hour?"
"It's not an urgent matter."
Kitazawa sat down opposite her and said, "Let's have lunch first."
After he finished speaking, he took out a lunchbox.
Would you like to try some?
Kitazawa opened the bento box and said, "I made this myself, so it probably tastes better than the ones in the cafeteria."
"Let's eat together."
Tsunade pushed her lunchbox to the middle of the coffee table, then reached for Kitazawa's lunchbox with her chopsticks.
What do you think of the students in the gifted program?
Kitazawa picked up his chopsticks and asked.
"Does that even need to be asked?"
Tsunade chuckled and said, "With their strength, they wouldn't have any problem participating in the Chunin Exams."
Especially Naruto Uzumaki, Yakumo Kurama, and Sasuke Uchiha.
If they were already adults, she could directly make them Jonin.
"That's why I want to change the content of the monthly exam."
Kitazawa nodded and said.
"How to change?"
Tsunade asked, puzzled.
Nowadays, monthly exams have incorporated tasks as part of the assessment, and she can't think of any other way to change it.
"The students in the genius class are already very familiar with each other, but to become a strong person, you need to fight against different ninjas."
Kitazawa said slowly, "I think we can invite formal ninjas to spar with them to broaden their horizons."
"...?"
Tsunade was speechless.
This doesn't sound like a monthly exam at the Ninja Academy; it sounds more like a Chunin Exam.
No, even the Chunin Exams probably aren't that intense; it would have to be a Special Jonin or a Jonin Exam.
"You might as well let them graduate early."
Tsunade remarked, "And the enemies you encounter on your missions are also official ninjas."
"They are still young, and there is no Shinobi World War right now, so we can let them stay in school for two more years."
Kitazawa coughed lightly and said, "The battles during the mission are all melee, and there are relatively few one-on-one duels."
"Then let's do it your way."
Tsunade thought about it and then agreed.
The reason why ninja schools allow geniuses to graduate early is because the teachers at ninja schools are not qualified enough.
If geniuses stay at the ninja academy, they won't learn more advanced ninjutsu, and their skills will stagnate.
But the gifted program is different.
Their teachers were Hiruzen Sarutobi, Kitazawa, Kakashi Hatake, Kosuke Maruboshi, Baojun Chen, Kurenai Yuhi, and Iruka Umino.
Graduation would actually be a bigger loss.
After all, in Konoha Village, even the strongest instructors can't compare to the teachers of the genius class.
Tsunade's idea was very simple.
As long as it doesn't hinder the growth of geniuses, anything goes.
"I plan to try it out in this final exam, and let the top eighteen students participate."
Kitazawa shared his thoughts: "Let's skip the mission and instead have a sparring match with a real ninja."
"can."
Tsunade took a bite of rice and said, "If it doesn't work well, cancel it immediately."
It is no exaggeration to say that the students in the genius class are the future of Konoha Village.
As the Hokage, she wouldn't allow them to be affected in any way.
"I see."
After Kitazawa finished speaking, he suddenly paused slightly, because three lines of text appeared before his eyes.
[Current Mission: Achieve ten victories against official ninjas in the final exams.]
[Mission Reward: Compound Ninja Art - Gentle Step Twin Lion Rasengan.]
【Whether to accept? 】
Kitazawa glanced at it and thought to himself that it was a pity, because the reward was not chakra.
However, the combined ninjutsu, Gentle Step Twin Lion Rasengan, is quite powerful; it is a combination of the Rasengan and the Gentle Step Twin Lion Fist.
He had already mastered the Soft Step Double Lion Fist through the system before.
After teaching Hinata Hyuga, they were able to use exciting combination techniques together.
He was confident that he would win ten out of eighteen matches.
After all, it's his decision who to invite.
The system was still naive enough to think he was a student in the gifted class.
"There's one more thing."
Tsunade looked up and said, "You've learned quite a bit of Wood Release now, you can consider announcing to the public that you know Wood Release."
Wood Release holds special significance for Konoha Village.
However, since Hashirama Senju's death, no Wood Release technique has ever been used in Konoha.
There would be many benefits if the news that Kitazawa had mastered Wood Release was made public.
First, it was announced that Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, had a successor to his Wood Release technique.
Secondly, the residents and ninjas of Konoha will feel invigorated, as the presence of Wood Release ninjas will greatly enhance their sense of security.
Third, it can enhance Kitazawa's reputation.
For Tsunade, the third point is the most important.
Because once Kitazawa's reputation surpasses hers, she can retire honorably and then spend her days gambling at the casino.
What Hokage? She didn't want to be one anymore!
"An announcement is fine, but words alone are not enough."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "I think we should find a suitable opportunity to use Wood Release in person to achieve the greatest effect."
What's the point of life if you don't show off?
Of course, he wasn't just doing it to show off.
Based on his understanding of the system, this would inevitably trigger a related system task, and the reward might just be the chakra he had been longing for.
"What you say makes sense, but such opportunities are hard to come by."
Tsunade paused for a moment, then said thoughtfully.
If it were the war with Kirigakure, that would indeed be an excellent opportunity.
But the war has now stopped.
Tsunade would never initiate a war.
The risks of war are too great; if we lose, the flourishing Konoha will come to an abrupt end.
The same applies to Kitazawa.
His current strength is not enough to make him invincible in the ninja world, and he cannot afford the cost of defeat in the war.
"It may be hard to find, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
Kitazawa smiled and said, "Let's wait a bit. If there's really no opportunity, then we'll just announce it directly."
"Ah."
Tsunade didn't say anything more after hearing this.
After lunch, Kitazawa went to the Anbu base.
Resting his head on Konan's lap, he pondered his Wood Release unveiling plan.
There's really nothing major happening in the ninja world right now, so it's impossible for him to just idly go and fight Nagato in the Akatsuki.
Moreover, the Akatsuki organization wasn't just limited to Nagato; it also included Obito Uchiha and Black Zetsu.
Since the main plot of the original work is not included, let's look for it in the theatrical version.
Kitazawa's heart skipped a beat, and he thought of the demons of the Land of Demons.
