Naruto: Minato Namikaze, born evil

Chapter 20 Pharmacist Nonou

Hiruzen Sarutobi's lectures were very dry, but the students surprisingly enjoyed them.

This surprised Minato somewhat, but upon closer inspection, it wasn't surprising at all.

After all, with the added prestige of being the Hokage, and considering the recent positive development of Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi still enjoys a high level of prestige in the village.

With Hiruzen Sarutobi's speech over, Minato officially began his ninja academy career.

The first class of the new semester was held the day after the entrance ceremony.

To avoid being surrounded by girls, Minato arrived at the classroom door at the perfect moment.

Before the girls in the class could even gather around, the teacher appeared at the classroom door.

"Everyone, return to your seats!"

Minato sat down next to a blonde girl who was alone in the back row: "Hello, my name is Namikaze Minato, nice to meet you."

"I know."

The girl smiled shyly and said softly, "My name is Yakushi Nonou, nice to meet you..."

Yakushi Nonou?

Is that really such a coincidence?

Minato smiled gently, his face expressionless, but his mind was deep in thought.

If it were any other character from the original work, he probably wouldn't have thought much of it.

However, in the original work, the pharmacist Nonou is from the Root organization, and her main job is a spy...

Minato had only been demonstrating Wood Release for a few days when a Root member who appeared in the original work appeared in his class. This made it hard for Minato not to have some doubts, especially since Kabuto had also become a spy at a very young age.

Minato stared directly at the teacher on the podium, but kept an eye on Nono's reaction to the side.

Minato was also surprised to find that Nono was the same age as him.

In the original story, when Nono adopted Kabuto, he looked very young, and Nono thought he was from Kakashi's generation.

However, if you think about it carefully, Kabuto's age shouldn't be much younger than Kakashi's.

Judging from the timeline, she should indeed be around the same age as him…

"Let me introduce myself. I am your teacher for the next few years, Ichikaku Umino."

"Umino..."

Minato was taken aback.

Is he Iruka's father? Or a member of the same clan?

Minato sized up the man on the podium. The man looked to be in his early twenties, with a capable demeanor and a short ponytail tied at the back of his head, just like Iruka in the original work.

I've never heard of any ninja clan with the surname Umino in the village, so it's most likely my father or uncle...

After writing his name on the blackboard, Umino Ikkaku turned around: "24 years old, Chunin, I like fishing, I hate enemies, and my dream is to become a ninja that everyone can trust, just like the Hokage."

As he spoke, he glanced around and pointed to the boys at the table near the door: "Next, everyone come up on stage and introduce yourselves. Let's start with you."

"My name is Xia Ye! I like drawing, I hate vegetables, and my dream is to become Hokage!"

"Ha! I'm the one who's going to become Hokage!"

No sooner had the boy finished speaking than a boy in the second row began to shout impatiently.

"The Hokage wouldn't be rude and shout when someone introduces themselves."

Umino glanced at the boy from a corner, and the boy's expression immediately froze. Amidst the laughter of the people around him, he sat back down in his seat.

"My name is Haruki Yumi. I love gardening, I don't dislike anything, and my dream is to become a gentle and virtuous wife!"

As the girl on stage spoke, she covered her cheeks shyly and secretly glanced in the direction of Minato.

Minato was a little embarrassed; how could this guy have such a romantic mind...?

Everyone introduced themselves one by one, and soon it was Sarutobi Shinnosuke's turn.

"Shinnosuke Sarutobi loves fighting strong opponents! He hates being treated specially because of his status! His dream is to surpass his father and become a better Hokage than him!"

Shinnosuke stood on the podium, looking rather arrogant.

Finally, he looked towards the back of the classroom and pointed at Minato: "Before that, I will definitely defeat you, Minato Namikaze!"

Minato gave an awkward laugh: "Well... good luck then."

"What?!"

In the second row of the class, during the entrance ceremony, Kaoru Kobayashi, who was the first to introduce herself to Minato, rested her chin on her hands and looked at Shinnosuke with disdain.

"Is defeating someone by relentlessly pestering them until they have no choice but to admit defeat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the class burst into laughter.

Everyone was there on the day of the entrance exam, so they had all seen the battle between Minato and Shinnosuke and naturally understood what Kaoru Koba meant.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Shinnosuke immediately panicked, his face turning bright red: "I never admitted to that kind of victory!"

Xiaoye Xun pouted, then turned to look in Minato's direction and gave him a peace sign.

It's as if it's saying: Look, I've stood up for you!

Minato fell silent upon seeing this.

Little sister, please don't say things that are detrimental to unity next time...

"Alright, quiet down, everyone. Next student, please come up and introduce yourself!"

Ikkaku Umino was having a bit of a headache. Sure enough, the Hokage's son's class was difficult to manage, especially when there were people in the class who were more outstanding than the Hokage's son.

Soon, it was Minato's turn to introduce himself.

"My name is Minato Namikaze. I enjoy a quiet life and don't have any particular dislikes. My dream is to protect the people who are important to me."

After saying that, Minato smiled gently, and the girls in the audience immediately screamed.

"Ah! Minato-kun is so gentle!"

"I will protect Minato-kun's smile!"

A girl blushed and raised her hand: "I can be an important person to Minato-kun! I can!"

Shinnosuke was speechless: "Is that guy some kind of succubus? These women are completely insane..."

Minato returned to his seat, and Nonou got up and walked onto the podium.

"My name is Yakushi Nonou. I like taking care of people, I hate wasting food, and my dream is to ensure that everyone in this world can have enough to eat and will not go hungry."

The girl held her hands to her heart, exuding a very gentle demeanor. After bowing slightly, she returned to her seat.

Minato also made a judgment on Nonou's situation.

orphan!

I wouldn't say it's absolute, but such a hobby and ideal is very likely to be found in an orphan.

Minato didn't ask. If the other party really had ulterior motives, then even if he did nothing, they would still take the initiative to approach him.

After everyone finished introducing themselves, Ikkaku Umino began the first lesson: the definition and extraction of chakra.

Minato listened attentively. Although he had already mastered the Rasengan, he still planned to systematically learn the relevant knowledge again.

Systematically summarizing and organizing the knowledge and skills you've already acquired might inspire you in other areas.

Soon, after the lesson, although he didn't gain anything substantial, Minato's understanding of chakra became much deeper.

Ikkaku Umino is a very dedicated teacher. Although he looks capable and serious, he is surprisingly easygoing when dealing with his students.

As the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class, Minato finished organizing his class notes.

"Alright, that's all for this lesson. get out of class dismissed!"

Umino glanced in the direction of Shinnosuke and Minato, then turned and left the classroom.

He needs to report to the Third Hokage on Shinnosuke's performance at school.

In addition, there's Minato Namikaze, who has garnered special attention across three generations…
