Chapter 21: One Year

The base number of ninjas entering the ninja world is completely different from that in Ryosuke's previous life.

Although there is no detailed census data, the approximate population of each country and the daimyo prefectures of each country have rough statistics.

Among them, the land of Fire, which has the largest population and the most suitable environment for living, has a population of only tens of millions.

The continuous wars and conflicts have caused the world's population to drop to the lowest level, not to mention the problems of fertility rate and population aging.

No one will pay attention to these, and people in this world seem to have not yet realized the importance of these issues.

Besides, love is not very important in this world. Many people spend their entire lives without finding a partner.

So in this situation, when the ninja academy that Ryosuke had been looking forward to finally opened, there were actually not many people.

At least it was completely different from the crowds of people he saw in his previous life. There was no one crowding to pay, and no one heard the crying of various children.

There were only about a hundred children at the school gate. With their parents watching them, they reluctantly filled out the forms and went into the school alone.

Hyuga Hiashi brought Ryosuke and Hinata to the school gate.

Instead of lining up with the others, they stood under the tree and watched the children queuing up for school.

The two brothers, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke, had the same cold faces and were both wearing black stand-up collar long gowns embroidered with round fan patterns and black shorts.

Next to them were Inuzuka Tsume and Inuzuka Kiba, mother and son accompanied by their own ninja dogs.

One by one, noteworthy people appeared. Hiashi had already shown them relevant information before school started, which of course included their family backgrounds.

In addition to the data collected by the Hyuga clan, Ryosuke's was aware of even more information than thedata provided.

Because most of the students in this class are so-called plot characters.

In the future, they will all become famous figures in this world.

However, Ryosuke didn't feel any emotion, let alone excitement, when he met so many familiar people at once.

In five years, he has integrated into this ninja world. When he met people like Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Itachi, he felt very calm.

"Students in each class will be assigned to two general classes and one elite class based on their average scores in the entrance exam."

"The entrance test will begin one month after the start of school, and the results will determine the classes your class will be in for the next few years."

At this time, Hiashi beside him spoke again, "But this class is special. There is one person who is an exception. He can directly enter the elite class without taking any tests."

As he spoke, Ryosuke also saw the familiar yellow-haired kid.

Golden hair, blue eyes like the sky—Uzumaki Naruto, the original protagonist of this world, the child of destiny, the chosen one.

Uzumaki Naruto stood there, so conspicuous that he was seen by him at a glance.

In fact, he is very ordinary in both appearance and temperament.

But because of the influence of other people around him, they all deliberately stayed away from him and kept a certain distance.

No one paid any attention to him, no one spoke to him, and no one looked at him.

Everyone pretended he didn't exist, but how could a person standing there not exist?

Therefore, because of this treatment, his existence seemed extremely noticeable.

"Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, is also the child of the Fourth Hokage. He is the special case who can enter the elite class directly without taking the entrance test."

Hiashi's calm voice sounded, "I have given you all the relevant information. I have specially marked this child."

"Regarding the information I gave you, you two must not disclose it to other people in the village. While studying in school, do not make close friends with him or get too close to him."

"His existence is very sensitive in the eyes of Konoha's top brass. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Father."

Ryosuke and Hinata answered in unison.

In fact, Ryosuke didn't particularly care about Hiashi's seriousness. He knew very well what to do.

To be honest, the Uzumaki Naruto in front of him was a little different from the person in his mind.

He thought Naruto would be an optimistic and outgoing person.

The type of person who will shamelessly approach and chat with others even if they ignore him.

But perhaps the Third Hokage's "encouragement" to him was not enough, and his temperament had not yet become so cheerful.

"Most people have already gone in. It's time for you to go over too."

Seeing that the queue had shrunk by half and many children had already filled out their admission forms, Hiashi indicated that the two of them could go over as well.

Ryosuke nodded and was about to hold the hand of the girl next to him.

But from the moment she went out, Hinata, who had already become expressionless, took the lead and walked towards the gate. Her small figure looked very imposing.

Ryosuke followed Hinata with a chuckle, feeling quite moved and pleased with her performance.

As members of the Hyuga clan, their appearance attracted the attention of the parents who had not yet dispersed.

Especially Uchiha Itachi, who looked at the two of them very seriously before looking away and turning away.

However, Ryosuke noticed that his main attention was on Hinata, apparently because of her cold appearance, which made her look like someone who was not easy to mess with.

Apart from attracting some attention, nothing happened and no one talked about anything.

With the enthusiastic help of the two teachers, Ryosuke and Hinata filled out the forms and officially enrolled.

Now, they needed to gather in the school's small playground and listen to the speech of the school's Head, the Third Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is not only the Kage of the village, he also serves as the head of the ninja school, just like his teacher Senju Tobirama.

Needless to say, Ryosuke had already guessed the content of the speech.

But the necessary procedures must be followed. Since the people from other families did not refuse, it would seem a bit eccentric if the Hyuga people did not follow.

The playground of the Ninja Academy is not as large as the training ground; it is probably about the size of two basketball courts.

However, there were only about a hundred children gathered together, so it didn't seem crowded.

Hinata walked in front with a cold face and her head held high. With the help of those white eyes, she looked very imposing.

Although she was the last to arrive, as soon as she approached the crowd, the other children consciously made way for her, allowing her to walk to the front and stand in the same row as Uchiha Sasuke.

Ryosuke, who had originally planned to slack off in the last row, had no choice but to follow her to the front row.

But it was good this way; everyone focused their attention on Hinata, and no one paid much attention to him.

"Hyuga Ryosuke?"

Unfortunately, just as the thought came to his mind, a voice suddenly sounded beside Ryosuke.

Turning his head, he saw a face that was childish but had delicate features and looked extremely bright in the sunlight.

"Yamanaka Ino."
