“Ring, ring, ring,” the class bell rang, and Obito was still reliably absent, nowhere to be seen.
Homeroom teacher Morino Daixiong walked into the classroom, checked the head count, and couldn’t help but pull a long face.
Someone was late on the very first day!
He was simply showing no regard for him at all!
“Teacher, I’m sorry, I’m late.
I was helping an old granny cross the street and lost track of time…”
At this moment, Uchiha Obito ran in, panting heavily, and said with some embarrassment.
“Fine, go on in.”
What could Morino Daixiong say?
He could only let him in with a bad grace.
He remembered the profiles of the students in the genius class crystal clear, so naturally, he knew about Uchiha Obito’s habit.
Since there were no seats left, Uchiha Obito had to go to the very back row, and as it happened, Chiba Kawa was right in front of him.
“Hello, I am Uchiha Obito, and my dream is to become the Hokage!”
Uchiha Obito greeted Chiba Kawa with a bright smile.
Chiba Kawa looked at Obito in a somewhat dazed state.
With Obito being this sunny, who would ever have thought that he would trigger the most cruel Fourth Ninja World War in the future?
“My name is Chiba Kawa.
Obito, people who don’t follow the rules don’t usually meet a good end, you know.”
Chiba Kawa said somewhat perfunctorily.
“What are you talking about?
I was helping an old granny cross the street; I am definitely not someone who breaks the rules.”
Uchiha Obito said with dissatisfaction.
“Alright, Obito, Chiba is also doing this for your own good.”
Rin smiled gently at Obito.
“Alright, Rin.”
Hearing Rin say that, Obito’s face turned visibly red, and he scratched the back of his head with an infatuated chuckle.
For some reason, Kakashi, who was standing beside him, felt a strange resonance with the phrase ‘people who don’t follow the rules won’t meet a good end,’ and then he noticed Chiba Kawa.
This white-haired kid seemed different.
“Ahem, now that everyone is here, let’s start with self-introductions.”
Morino Daixiong gave a heavy cough, interrupting the noisy classroom chatter, and then instructed everyone to introduce themselves.
The student in the front-row leftmost seat, who was being watched by Morino Daixiong, tactfully walked up to the podium.
“Name, likes, dislikes, and finally your dream.
Follow this template,”
Morino Daixiong said amicably as he watched the student step onto the stage.
“My name is Hyuga An, I like training with my father, I don’t have anything I particularly dislike, and my dream is to become a powerful Ninja.”
Hyuga An, wearing a headband, said quietly.
A member of the Hyuga branch family, huh?
Truly pathetic, casually brushing off even their dream.
Chiba Kawa dared to bet that this guy’s dream was definitely to break free from the Caged Bird Curse.
But who could blame it when the Byakugan was something others could just plug and play?
Although the Caged Bird system had all sorts of flaws, it indeed protected the Hyuga.
In the near future, among the descendants of the two brothers Hagoromo and Hamura, only the Hyuga managed to preserve their clan.
Student after student went up, all of them much the same—some powerful Ninja, some Hokage or whatever.
Soon, it was Chiba Kawa’s turn.
Chiba Kawa knew that at such a great time for observing saplings at the start of the school term, the Third Hokage must be peeping through that crystal ball, so he had to put on a good performance.
“My name is Chiba Kawa, I like researching Ninjutsu, I haven’t thought of things I hate yet, but there should be quite a few.
My dream is to marry several beautiful female Ninjas as my wives in the future!”
Chiba Kawa said proudly.
This was indeed his dream; a real man should shout his dream out loud.
Leaving Chiba Kawa aside, who among everyone present transmigrated into Naruto without wanting to build a harem?
And Chiba Kawa actually said it out loud, which showed the gap between them.
Why should a real man hide his good looks!
The whole audience fell dead silent, and then erupted into thunderous laughter.
“What kind of dream is that?
Hahaha.”
“Marry several wives?
Do you think you’re the Daimyo?”
“If it’s Kawa-kun, it’s not entirely out of the question, but you can only marry me!”
Amidst the noisy mockery, there were some consenting voices from young girls.
After all, Chiba Kawa in this lifetime was indeed very good-looking, sporting a blindingly white head of hair above a sunny and handsome face.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was observing the saplings with his crystal ball, twitched at the mouth corners.
He had just been sighing about how this kid resembled his teacher, so why did he suddenly turn out like his own reckless and troublesome student?
“Sigh, Teacher, the descendants of the Senju Clan have turned out like this.
How am I supposed to account to you?”
Chiba Kawa frowned.
These unruly commoners actually dared to mock the dream of a passionate young man!
This was simply outrageous!
Chiba Kawa locked onto his target, finding the one who laughed the loudest: Ah, it’s you, Asuma Sarutobi, right?
“I think Kurenai Yuhi is quite nice.
Beautiful Miss Yuhi, would you be willing to spend the rest of your life with me?”
Chiba Kawa ran over to Kurenai Yuhi, knelt on one knee, and said affectionately.
“I…
I…”
Kurenai Yuhi never expected that eating melons would lead right to her own head.
This unprecedented experience made her blush so much she couldn’t speak.
“Chiba Kawa, get lost!
Kurenai is never going to agree to you.”
Asuma Sarutobi said in exasperation.
“Who the hell are you?
What right do you have to stop me from pursuing Kurenai Yuhi?”
Chiba Kawa said disdainfully with his nose pointed up at the sky.
“I, I!”
Asuma Sarutobi’s face flushed red, and he didn’t know how to reply.
Asuma had a very thin skin; even after becoming an adult, he would blush and not know how to answer when asked by his own disciples, let alone back in his teenage years.
A kind-hearted person by his side, Shiranui Genma, tugged at Chiba Kawa’s sleeve to remind him.
“Asuma’s father is the Third Hokage.”
Chiba Kawa put on a sudden realization expression.
“Oh my goodness, I accidentally barged into royalty.
For the Third Hokage’s sake, I’ll let you have Kurenai Yuhi.”
“My father is my father, and I am me!”
“I am not some object, and I don’t like either of you!”
Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi said in unison, neither of their expressions looking very good.
“Alright, all of you shut up!”
Seeing that these young masters were about to start a brawl, Morino Daixiong immediately stopped them.
Chiba Kawa gave the homeroom teacher plenty of face and didn’t speak anymore, but his expression was like that of a victorious general, walking proudly back to his seat in high spirits.
Rin Nohara poked Chiba Kawa and asked curiously.
“Chiba, is your dream really to marry several female Ninjas?”
“Of course.”
Chiba Kawa replied very clearly.
Since he had come to the Ninja World, how could he not build a harem?
He was ready to build one even when he wasn’t a Ninja, let alone now that he was one.
“Hehe, Rin, if you wipe off the paint on the sides of your cheeks, I’ll seriously pursue you and make you the primary wife in the future!”
“Rin, don’t agree to him!
Besides, your face paint looks great!”
Before Rin could speak, Obito puffed up in anger.
“Hehe, thanks for the compliment, Chiba, but I’ll pass.
I’m quite satisfied with how I look right now.”
Rin expressed her gratitude and refused.
Although Chiba Kawa was very good-looking, she couldn’t accept sharing a husband with other women.
Moreover, compared to Chiba Kawa, the white-haired masked boy in the front row attracted her attention more.
“Hehe, I knew Rin wouldn’t fancy a lecherous white-haired guy like you.”
Obito, not understanding the situation, scratched his head and chuckled foolishly.
Kakashi shook his head slightly.
He had thought the guy would be a decent opponent, but his dream was so…
so…
Kakashi couldn’t find an adjective.
Anyway, he had misjudged him.
Seeing Obito look at him with some vigilance, Chiba Kawa felt extremely happy inside.
With this, that brat Obito’s relationship with him probably wouldn’t ever get good!
