Idle Talk About Team Assignments

The graduation exam had long been passed smoothly.

The assessment was nothing more than the Three Body Technique that Naruto had mastered at the age of five.

And then there was the optional written test, which didn't affect graduation.

After graduating and becoming Genin, the Jonin in charge of the team had also been clearly defined. It was Kakashi Hatake, who gave Naruto and Sasuke stories and life lessons every day at a fixed time.

In the past two years, in order to prevent himself from losing even the last bit of dignity as a teacher, Kakashi constantly read books in his spare time, and taught Naruto and Sasuke a lot of unheard-of and uncommon knowledge.

Specifically, it was about the strange and bizarre events that happened all over the Ninja World.

Although Naruto held an indifferent attitude towards whether he graduated or not, on the day of the team assignments, Naruto still rarely chose to go in person.

After all, the little friends who had been together for six years would be going their separate ways from today onwards.

In any case, this was a day worth commemorating.

On the road, Naruto, wearing black casual pants, a white shirt, and an orange casual jacket, walked side by side with Sasuke, who was wearing a black slim-fitting denim suit.

Both of their handsome faces were filled with indifferent expressions. Although they looked unapproachable, it did not affect the amazing gazes cast by the young ladies along the way.

Although Naruto and Sasuke were still several months away from being thirteen years old.

However, years of arduous training had made them both tall, with heights above 1.65M, which was very similar to the mature teenage style of five years later in the comics, making the girls who were in the throes of young love blush.

Neither Naruto nor Sasuke cared much about the gazes cast by the people around them.

Walking slowly, the two chatted casually.

The surrounding area was surrounded by airflow, isolating the sound, so they were not afraid of being heard by passers-by.

"Naruto, who do you think our remaining teammate will be? Hinata?" Sasuke asked.

Whether it was from the point of view that the Sharingan restrained the Tailed Beast, or from the degree of familiarity between Sasuke and Naruto, the two were bound to be assigned to a group. The only thing worth discussing was the remaining teammate.

In Sasuke's opinion, there was a high probability that it would be Hinata, who had a good relationship with them and was also the young lady of the Hyuga Main Family.

"It might be Sakura," Naruto replied.

"That fangirl? Is she qualified to be assigned to our team?" Sasuke looked puzzled.

Sakura in the comics, at least, had the persona of a top student. Although her actual combat level was average, only at the level of a normal Genin, her theoretical level was much stronger than most Chunin.

But in reality, Naruto was an all-around top student with excellent practical and theoretical skills, and Sasuke, although slightly inferior to Naruto, was also a top student far superior to ordinary people.

In comparison, Sakura, who was only slightly outstanding in theory, seemed dull.

In addition, Sakura often looked at his Shadow Clone with infatuation on weekdays, which also led to Sasuke being familiar with her after six years of being classmates, but his feelings for her were very average.

"It is indeed possible that it is Sakura, after all, the Ino-Shika-Cho will not be separated."

"And Hinata, Kiba, and Shino are all ninjas with reconnaissance specialties. According to the team assignment rules of the previous class, they are likely to be assigned together as a specialty class, just like the Taijutsu specialty class under Guy-sensei."

"And the two of us will definitely be assigned to the same team. The remaining one is naturally Sakura, who is extra, but also has a good relationship with us. After all, the other students in the class are relatively ordinary."

"Either they will not graduate and have to retake the course, or they will follow an ordinary teacher. They are not qualified to enjoy the high-quality educational resources of an elite Jonin leading the team."

Naruto replied casually, not caring much.

Naruto didn't elaborate on the deeper reasons, but Sasuke looked thoughtful.

Having recently recovered his brain, he could see some information hidden beneath the surface.

"If the class assignments are as you say, Naruto, it's not impossible."

"The Ino-Shika-Cho trio, Hinata, Shino, and Kiba are all heirs of ninja clans in the village. While we two, strictly speaking, also come from decent backgrounds, the bigger labels attached to us are the unstable factors in the village, right?"

"After all, a Jinchuriki and an unpopular Uchiha prone to extremism could lose control at any time. If Sakura, a commoner with no background, is assigned to our team, and one of us goes berserk and accidentally kills her..."

"Her death, as a commoner with no background, wouldn't matter much to the village."

"But if she survives, Sakura does have some talent. With an elite Jonin like Kakashi Hatake teaching her, she might have a chance to become a powerful female ninja in the future. Either way, the village doesn't lose out."

Hearing Sasuke's analysis, Naruto was somewhat impressed.

This kid wasn't stupid; he just didn't like using his brain much.

Nodding slightly, Naruto agreed, "You make a lot of sense. Now, sense the direction of the Hokage Building. Do you see that bearded ninja and that beautiful mature woman ninja standing next to him?"

Sasuke did as he was told, using the Chakra Sensing he had recently mastered to look towards the Hokage Building.

Sure enough, he saw the two people Naruto mentioned: "Sarutobi Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi?" Sasuke murmured.

But the next second, Sasuke's sensing was kicked out of the Hokage Building.

Naruto's Kagura Mind's Eye was well-practiced, so he wasn't discovered, but Sasuke's half-baked attempt was too obvious and was quickly detected by the Yamanaka Clan Anbu ninja in the Hokage Building.

However, when this Yamanaka Clan member traced back the Chakra with his sensing, he saw Naruto and Sasuke swaggering down the street.

He paused for a moment, then sighed.

He gave a report to the Hokage and then acted as if nothing had happened.

These two were no ordinary people.

One was the orphan of the Fourth Hokage, and the other was the orphan of the Uchiha Clan.

Even if they broke into the steal the Book of Seals, they would have to pretend not to see it and ask the Hokage for instructions before making the next decision.

"See? They are also the Jonin leading teams. One is the Third Hokage's son, and the other is his future daughter-in-law. They will probably lead the Ino-Shika-Cho trio and Kiba's team. The children of the major clans are all grouped together."

"This is paving the way for his son. Even if he can't become Hokage in the future, having such connections will be enough for him to be a Hokage assistant, ensuring the continuation and development of the Sarutobi Clan."

"If that's the case, is there a greater chance that Sakura will be assigned to our team?"
