...
Then the teacher begins to explain how the teams will be (one jounin for each team of 3).
Then the teacher begins to dictate the names.
He listened intently with some expectation.
'Who will I play with? Naruko, Ino or maybe Sakura' After all I get along with them more or less, I hope they observe that and put me favorably against the first two although I won't complain too much if it's the third.
So I don't know how many names passed that I didn't even bother to remember.
So they finally make it to team 7.
"Team 7: Naruko Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno and Satsuki Uchiha...team 10: Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara and Chouji Akimichi; finally team 11: Yubeng Hakawa, Sauki Aburame and Rai Uchiha"
At the moment Ino clutches her head regretting something, Naruko stands up in protest because he is on the same team as Satsuki and I am shocked by what he has dealt me.
'Nooooo!; I touch myself with the possible emo and the block of ice' My body falls weakly on the table.
Right now I want to raise my body and protest but I don't because I know it's useless.
I remain lost in my thoughts lamenting and cursing my terrible fate.
...
So after lunch we are sitting in class.
At the desk we are three people in silence.
Unlike the other teams, ours seems to have a depressing atmosphere.
At the table we are, I Sayuki and Rai
For my part, I have a bored and somewhat annoyed look, Rai has his eyes closed and poses arrogantly but he also has an annoyed air.
And sayuki who is in the middle of the two looks forward with her dark glasses indifferent to the rest.
It seems that for her we don't even exist.
Since we sat here none of the three of us have said a word and it seems we don't want to say any either.
Then she observed how lively other groups are compared to ours.
Even team 7 to have a happier atmosphere.
She then gave a strange look at team 7.
Why did they choose pure women?
I thought that the teams should be assorted between men and women.
Then suddenly my senses alerted me to something.
I turned my head and saw a person standing behind us.
He is a man who wore black glasses and wore a long jacket that reached to his knees.
'When?-' A drop of sweat runs down my face.
'I couldn't feel it' he I was horrified to know that I have been so vulnerable in front of someone I don't know.
Sayu and Rai seem to be in the same situation as both of their pupils shrink.
The man seems to give off a dark vibe that makes you think this person is not one to be trifled with.
Then I look away in surprise and my face returns to normal.
'I didn't think someone could surprise me like this.'
"Good reaction, I thought none of the three would stop me" She says with a nonchalant smile.
"Are you our new teacher?" she asked herself directly.
"Correct"
"So..."
"How about we talk somewhere else? I hate crowded places" she says with a small smile.
Although it looks like she's asking, it actually sounds like she's stating the facts.
"Then we will go with you" she turned her head to look at my companions.
Sayuki adjusts her glasses as she nonchalantly stands up.
Rai also gets up as she looks at the teacher with a thoughtful look.
"..."
'Looks like it's going to be hard to get along with these guys...'
...
We are in the depths of the forest, in a very hidden place among the trees.
I looked thoughtfully at the teacher trying to get information while he frowned.
'His clothing of him at the beginning who said certain things about what this teacher would be like but that he has brought us to this place where he must feel like he already gives me certain ideas of the personality of this teacher'
To begin with, he brought us to a place that is forbidden to enter.
The environment is very well hidden in this deep forest.
His profile shows that he is a perfect person to be in the ambu.
"Well, how about we introduce ourselves first, I'm Izawa Yoshimura" he says with a slight smile.
'What a shorter presentation'
"I am Yubeng Hakawa" I say immediately without meaning to add anything.
"I'm Sayuki Aburame" She continued with a cold and indifferent expression.
"...They are Rai Uchiha" she says with an arrogant but calm tone.
Then the scene goes silent again.
"Okay, then let's move on to the next topic"
She says her as she continues to maintain her slight smile.
"As you can see, I'll be his teacher from now on but before this I'll give him a little test"
'Okay here'
He adjusts his glasses and speaks with a smile.
"The test is very simple, everyone take a scroll from here" he takes out from nowhere a box with 6 scrolls in it.
So he brings the box over here.
"You can choose anyone but choose well" he says he keeping his smile.
So the three of us took a scroll each.
"Well, now that everyone has a scroll each, I have to tell you that of all the scrolls that were in the box, only half are real"
He frowned.
"What I mean is that only those with the correct scroll can pass my test"
"..."
'Hey, isn't that playing with probability? What if they're all fake?'
The moment he says this we all understand what the teacher means.
"By the way, you can't open the scroll until the end of the test, if you open it then it will be an immediate elimination."
"The test will take place until midnight" Then the teacher jumps over a tree.
"See you then, until midnight" So when he is about to leave he turns his head for a moment.
"I almost forgot, only 2 of you will pass and the other will return to the academy and by chance you feel like increasing your odds so you could ask your next mate for the scroll to increase your odds by 50%" Then without Just explain the teacher quickly disappears.
"..."
The scene quickly falls silent.
My first action was to jump to the side.
And it seems that the other two thought the same thing as me and jumped away from each other.
Then the scene goes silent again.
We looked at each other in silence.
Then Sayuki who was on my right quickly jumps away.
And then Rai and I do the same.
It seems that they applied the 'a ninja should be cautious if he is not sure of the situation'
...
After we quickly separated, I hid in a secluded place, not because I'm afraid, but because the mission we've been given seems curious to me.
'I highly doubt that the goal is to remove the companions' scroll'
From my memories I know that we must all pass the test, which is why I reject what he said about only one being able to pass his test.
Normally these kinds of tests that young people put on newcomers tend to test things like trust in the group, willpower, and the like.
But the proof that you have just given us is very interesting because practically from what you have said it seems that your objective is to plant discord in us and make us attack each other.
But what has me confused right now is the matter of the scroll.
'He said that only 3 of the 6 scrolls were real' What are you trying to achieve with that? It doesn't make sense to put that if the test tests our trust in the team.
I scratch my head thinking about this but nothing comes to my mind.
So I shrug.
'I'll figure something out later, for now I'll look for food' I say looking like I'm forgetting about the test.
'Ninja rule: search for food (energy supply) before each mission'
...
As I ate, several ideas occurred to me.
'And if all the scrolls are actually true?, then the test would only consist of waiting until time passes so that in the end we all win, and if that were the case, the only concern would be if any of us suddenly decided to fight, which it would ruin the confidence test'
But is it so easy?
Then suddenly another idea occurs to me.
"And if all the scrolls were fake, then that means that either we all disapprove or we all approve, since it is a test of confidence or something similar to that"
Then he touched my beard that I don't have.
'From this conclusion I can say that these scrolls are only symbolic'
So the real test should be in us.
'But what exactly? Is it not attacking us or something similar, like it was in Naruto's test of the original work?'
I keep thinking because I have the feeling that things are not as easy as I think.
...
In a place in the forest is Professor Izawa holding a document that has photos of Yuu and the rest stuck to the top.
'Team 11...'
Name: Yubeng hakawa
Performance: Average.
Observations: None.
Name: Sayuki Aburame
Performance: Superior
Observations: A cold mind and former ambu candidate.
Name: Rai Uchiha
Performance: Superior
Observations: Survivor of the Uchiha clan.
'Of the three, the most problematic seems to be the girl but from my personal observation I would say that the Hakawa boy is not far behind without mentioning the Uchiha who is among the top of his class'
Many more thoughts run through her mind.
'The Uchiha shouldn't want to be left behind because the Uchihas have always had that pride in not making his clan look bad.'
"The Hakawa Kid Should Be Plotting"
"The Aburame girl is the hardest to predict but I guess she should have some purpose if she has graduated from the ninja academy."
'I wonder how this will play out...' A faint smile spreads across her face.
