Chapter 13 – Jonin teachers

Chapter 13 – Jonin teachers

Everyone heads back to class but this time sitting grouped, each close to their own teammates, except for Naruto and Sasuke who make it a point to sit as far apart as possible, yet in the same row of seats, while Shino quietly sits in the middle.

I worry a bit about how the story will play out with Shino taking Sakura's place but honestly, it just seems like an improvement.

Without the love triangle Naruto will no longer be distracted trying to impress Sakura and one-up Sasuke and Sasuke no longer has the Sakura bug attached to him... now he has a whole bunch of bugs that will at least have some during a fight.

A few minutes later, the Jounin teachers start showing up one by one.

Each Jounin showed his face inside the class, called up their team's number, and then left the class with their Genin.

Naruto's teacher Kakashi will surely be the last to show but Kurenai can show up at any time to take my team.

I don't recognize the faces of any of the other Jonin teachers until Asuma shows up.

"Team 9, let's go".

Ino looks at me and I nod to confirm it's who we expected. She smiles and waves goodbye at my team before following Kiba who rushes ahead, taking Shikamaru in her tow, lazily stretching his arms behind his back

Kurenai shows up next.

I was ready to get up before her words pause me in my tracks.

"Team 8 you're with me"

The class is mostly empty by this point. Just my team and team 7. Naruto seems to be avoiding looking at Sakura but is still sneaking some glances from time to time.

Orochimaru, one of the Konohagakure's legendary Sannin, known for his strength but above all, his intellect and wickedness. Currently defected from the village after getting caught doing unethical experiments in his search for immortality.

While he harbors no ill will towards Anko or Konoha ninjas in general, I need to avoid his curiosity to not end up as a lab experiment or be chosen as one of his potential spare bodies.

"Moving on, introduce yourselves and your skillset. Starting with you Hinata.

Tell us all about you."

She is also a bully and probably a sadist....

"I..m Hyuga Hinata, my specialty is the clan specialty. Using the Byakugan as a sensor and the gentle fist technique in close range."

She manages to push her introduction out. I'm proud.

"Next..." - She motions towards Sakura

"Haruno Sakura, all-rounded but my chakra control and strength stand out"

"You remind me of a certain person, only by your age her boobs were already as big as mine. Now for the last one"

"Yuumi Yami, I'm also best at close-range fighting currently."

"I wonder why then a specialized jonin like me these two cute genin ended up being served as lambs to this big bad wolf?"

Anko smiles threateningly with her eyes closed.

"Let the secrets out boy, before I have to force them out"
