Chapter 10 Leading the Shinobi Team (Ch 10)

Time flies, it’s been forty-one years in Konoha.

In order to fill the vacancies of grassroots ninjas as quickly as possible, although the Second Ninja World War has ended, this batch of ninja school students still implement the three-year system during the war.

In other words, Yue Yan will graduate this year, get a ninja forehead protection, and officially become a glorious Genin.

Well, Konoha Genin, sounds very powerful.

In these years, Yue Yan would still go to the market to swipe white treasure chests except for school time, but the time was not long. After all, the strong physique of a super newcomer made Yue Yan’s physical fitness far superior to his peers. The most important thing was that the energy cubes swiped from the white treasure chests did not have a significant effect on Yue Yan’s physical fitness.

Yue Yan spent more time on ninjutsu and studying at Konoha Hospital.

With his foundation as a medical student, and with the dedicated teaching of Aunt Natsuki, a senior medical ninja, and other doctors at Konoha Hospital, Yue Yan has grown rapidly in the past few years and can even perform some operations independently.

Moreover, with the recognition of all the doctors in Konoha Hospital, Yue Yan was granted the status of a doctor as an exception. In a sense, Yue Yan broke the record of being the youngest person to become a doctor.

On this day, Yue Yan, who had just completed a surgical operation and left the operating room, was handed a bottle of water by a furry blue little paw.

Seeing this, Yue Yan thanked him and took it with a smile.

“Thanks, Xiaolan.”

Hearing this, the owner of the little blue paw raised his head happily.

The Pokémon that Yue Yan called Xiaolan was the Pokémon that hatched from his previous Pokémon egg. It has a blue body, like a puppy. Its legs and upper torso are black. It has a blue tail and a yellow collar. There is a white round spot on the back of its front paw. It has a pair of red eyes and black lines on its face that resemble a mask. It is the famous Riolu in its pre-evolution form of Lucario.

Yue Yan also treated Riolu as his own relative and named him Xiaolan.

Well, the main reason is that Yue Yan is not good at naming. Xiaolan always feels too perfunctory, so he changed it to Lan, which means orchid.

Usually Xiaolan would follow Yue Yan to school. Even when working in the hospital, Xiaolan would just find an open place to practice alone.

The doctors who were already familiar with Xiaolan only recognized him as a special summoning beast. However, there were so many strange summoning beasts in the ninja world that it was not worth their surprise at all.

And Xiaolan is so cute. After training, she will help the doctors do things within her ability. They like Xiaolan very much.

Yue Yan did not force Xiaolan to do anything, but Xiaolan would follow him during every training session.

“Have you finished your training today?”

Hearing the question, Xiaolan nodded.

“Xiaolan is still so great. I’ll take you to eat ramen later.” Yue Yan smiled and touched Xiaolan’s head.

At this time, Aunt Xia Shu came over and looked at the loving scene between Yue Yan and Xiao Lan, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of her mouth.

“Yue Yan, tomorrow is the graduation exam. Is it really okay to work in the hospital instead of going to training?”

Hearing this, Yue Yan smiled confidently: “It’s just a small graduation test, it’s totally fine.”

“That’s good.” Aunt Xia Shu smiled and said, “I think with your talent in medical ninjutsu, you can still be a ninja.”

“That won’t do. Becoming a great ninja is my dream.”

If the ninja world didn’t have so many old silver coins and there was no threat from the Otsutsuki clan outside, if one didn’t have the ability to protect oneself, no one would want to become a ninja.

Although he complained in his heart, Yue Yan still said words that were appropriate for his age.

Looking at Yue Yan’s high-spirited appearance, Aunt Xia Shu vaguely saw the shadow of her good friend in him, but when she thought of her good friend dying in the war, she couldn’t stop worrying.

With a long sigh, Aunt Xia Shu respected Yue Yan’s choice and took out the gift she had prepared long ago and gave it to Yue Yan.

“Since you are so confident, I would like to congratulate you in advance on becoming a ninja. This is my gift to you.”

Looking at the new ninja tool bag handed over by Aunt Xia Shu, Yue Yan expressed his gratitude. He was grateful from the bottom of his heart for Aunt Xia Shu who took such good care of him and treated him almost as her own child. He secretly vowed that no matter what happened, he would protect Aunt Xia Shu.

Aunt Xia Shu gently touched Yue Yan’s head. “Okay, there’s nothing to do at the hospital for now. You can go back and rest early today. Even if you are confident, you still have to prepare for the graduation exam.”

“Okay, Aunt Natsuki.”

After saying goodbye, Yue Yan took Xiaolan away.

On the day of the graduation examination, Yue Yan easily passed the most basic Three Body Technique. All he had to do next was wait for the guidance of the team leader.

On the day of the class division, Yue Yan watched his friends follow the supervising jonin one by one and left, and he also began to look forward to his own supervising jonin.

Not long after, a senior ninja dressed in white walked into the classroom and announced that Yue Yan, Asuma, and Yuhi Kurenai would form the eighth team and gather at the training ground tomorrow morning.

“Great, I’m grouped with Hong.” Asuma stood up excitedly, his face full of excitement, he was so happy to be grouped with his favorite goddess. After all, as the saying goes, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first. Asuma may not have heard this saying, but it does not prevent him from understanding the truth.

On the other hand, Yuhi Kurenai looked at the excited Asuma and silently distanced herself from him.

Obviously, Asma still has a long way to go in his pursuit of the goddess.

Compared to the two of them, Yue Yan was more surprised. If he heard correctly, the name of his team leader and instructor was Hinata Hizashi, the father of his future brother-in-law Neji.

Unfortunately, in the future, in order to prevent Konoha and Kumogakure from going to war again, Hyuga Hizashi took the initiative to sacrifice himself and die, which had a great impact on Hyuga Neji, who was still a child. Before being influenced by the leader of the Naruto cult, he had always been a pessimist who always talked about his fate.

This is getting off topic. As the younger brother of the future Hyuga clan leader, Hyuga Hizashi is definitely excellent in all aspects and can allow Yue Yan to learn a lot.

However, Yue Yan was still a little skeptical about being assigned to serve such an outstanding jonin, but after seeing Asuma’s silly face, he understood.

It seems that this was prepared by the Third Hokage for his son, and I am just an extra at best.

After the party, Yue Yan took Xiao Lan to have a bite to eat.

When they arrived at Ichiraku Ramen and just sat down, Yue Yan saw a handsome man with golden hair and a warm and sunny smile and a red-haired woman walking in.
