The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

The final graduation assessment went very smoothly, or in other words, this so-called "graduation assessment" was actually a performance assessment.

The real assessment was completed a few days ago.

As for today's assessment, firstly, it is for the parents who came to watch, and secondly, it is also to give another chance to those students who have not passed before.

Of course, if you still fail this time, you will have no choice but to drop out of school.

That's right, there is no so-called "reconstruction" in current ninja schools.

There are only so many ninja quotas in Konoha's hands. They can't even pass the ninja school graduation examination. This means that these children have limited talents in the ninja journey. Instead of wasting their time on this road and occupying Konoha's ninja quota, they can go to other places.

Wouldn’t it be great for the industry to shine and heat up?

Moreover, these children have also extracted chakra. With chakra improving their physique, they will also have certain advantages in other industries.

"Okay, the graduation exam is officially over. Congratulations, you are now an official Konoha ninja." The Chuunin teacher standing on the podium looked at the transcript in his hand and announced with some sigh.

The children sitting in the seats also had a piece of Konoha forehead protector on their bodies. From the moment they put on this forehead protector, they became Konoha ninjas.

The chuunin teacher on the stage also sighed while sharing his experience in pieces and passing it on to these children.

He is also a chuunin who has come through the war years.

Although he chose to teach in a ninja school because he was tired of war and ninja life, his original experiences were undoubtedly precious.

After talking for a while, the chuunin teacher suddenly smiled and said: "Today is your graduation day. Normally, it should be over by now, but there is a special guest in our class today, and I want to invite him.

Let me tell you a few words, what do you think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes in the classroom fell on Hanzo sitting in the corner.

The Chuunin teacher also said with a smile: "Hokage-sama, please forgive me."

Hanzo shook his head helplessly, stood up and walked to the podium: "Today is your graduation day. Before you had this forehead protector, you were the objects of Konoha's protection. After wearing the forehead protector, you should be protected by Konoha."

You are here to protect Konoha and everyone in Konoha.

Now, your seniors and I can still stand in the front and create an environment for you to grow up. But when we grow old and pass away, this responsibility of guardianship should fall on your shoulders.

You are the new shoots of Konoha and the guardians of the deeper seeds."

After finishing speaking, Hanzo slowly walked off the stage, and the classroom also burst into warm applause.

…

After the graduation ceremony, there were many large and small activities. This is a tradition formed by the ninja school in the past few years. Some little carrots who were not too busy with their studies also sneaked nearby and looked at the seniors with envy.

Forehead protector.

When all the activities were completely over, it was already half afternoon.

Of course, even though Hanzo spent most of the day at the ninja school, Hanzo's shadow clone was also in charge of the Hokage's office.

Over the past few years, Hanzo's "shadow clone skipping work" has become a secret known to everyone.

However, Naruto's "shadow clone skipping work" does not affect the operation of the village, and it is also to improve his strength, so naturally no one will say anything.

"Teacher, do you know who my instructor ninja will be?" Yanamurabei couldn't wait to ask as soon as he walked out of the ninja school.

They are all a group of graduated children, chatting together, and naturally they talk about their respective mentor ninjas.

Mentoring ninjas is still very important for newly graduated genin.

A reliable mentoring ninja is the guide for these new genin from quasi-ninja to real ninja, and can help them avoid many detours.

Hearing Yanagimura Bie's words, Hanzo smiled and said, "Of course I know, every session of your coaching jounin is arranged by me."

"Then who is my mentoring Jonin?" Yanagimura Bie's eyes lit up.

Hanzo glanced at him meaningfully, and then said: "You will know tomorrow."

"Ah?" Yanamurabei was dumbfounded, and then began to pester Hanzo, but Hanzo was very strict with his mouth, and even if he didn't let go, Yanamurabei had nothing to do.

"Okay, you graduate today, and the teacher will treat you to a meal." Hanzo began to talk to him, and led Yanagimura Bie to the barbecue restaurant.

Yanamurabei curled his lips, but had no choice but to angrily follow Hanzo into the barbecue restaurant, ready to turn his grief and anger into food.

When night fell, Hanzo sent his little apprentice home, looked at his pocket, and smiled helplessly.

As the Hokage and the leader of the Shimada clan, Hanzo is naturally not short of money. Even if this kid eats a lot, it will still be difficult to make him poor.

As for Yanamurabei's mentoring Jonin...it's actually Masaki.

That's right, the boy who was eliminated from the Chunin Exams more than three years ago and Shimada Flame Bird was promoted to Jonin a few months ago and has become the youngest elder in the Shimada clan.

In fact, shortly after his two teammates were promoted, Masaki was promoted to Chunin through other channels.

In the past three years, he has improved his strength while completing various tasks.

With the foundation of the Shimada clan as his backing, he doesn't need to worry about running out of things to learn. This is also the advantage that ninjas from the ninja clan have over civilian ninjas.

For civilian ninjas, unless they can have a powerful teacher, such as Yanagimura Hei, otherwise, if they want to learn various ninjutsu, physical techniques, illusions or forbidden techniques, they need to gain merit in exchange for it, or they can do it themselves.

Research, this is a natural disadvantage in terms of resources.

Shimada Masaki naturally did not have these concerns, so his strength improved rapidly in the past three years, and his mission resume met the requirements, and he became the first ninja in Jun Uchiha's team to be promoted to Jonin.

Masaki Shimada would come to Hanzo's training ground from time to time, and Hanzo would occasionally give him guidance.

As Hanzo's disciple, Yanamurabei would come to the training ground every weekend, so the two of them became familiar with each other after going back and forth. Masaki also knew Yanamurabei's strength very well.

With the strength of a jounin, a descendant of his own family, and no problem with his character, Hanzo could safely hand over Yanamurabei and Konoha's Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki to his hands.

Of course, Hanzo had just told Masaki a few days ago that Yanagimura Bie was the Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki. It was precisely because of this that Masaki, who originally didn't want to take care of the students so quickly, reluctantly accepted this task.
