"The so-called Hokage is someone who must gain everyone's approval."

Kitazawa asked unhurriedly, "Naruto is your classmate and your comrade. How can someone who mocks their comrade become Hokage?"

Many people lowered their heads upon hearing this, showing shame.

Uzumaki Naruto felt as if the wind had blown sand into his eyes, blurring his vision.

His face was filled with determination; from now on, his dream would be to surpass the Hokage and gain everyone's approval.

Kitazawa also became second only to Hiruzen Sarutobi in his mind.

"This teacher is quite good."

Nara Shikamaru changed his lazy demeanor, sat up, and a serious expression appeared on his face.

Coming from a Ninja clan, he naturally knew that Uzumaki Naruto was not a so-called monster.

However, Kitazawa was just a common Ninja and did not understand the specific circumstances.

The only explanation was that he was kind.

Hyuga Hinata subconsciously clenched her hands.

She looked at Kitazawa, and a hint of longing flashed in her eyes.

First, he helped her, and then he helped Uzumaki Naruto. He truly was... kind.

Current Mission: Be the first student in the class to attract the attention of Principal Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Mission Reward: Wind Release: Great Breakthrough.

Host has completed the mission, reward issued.

Knowledge and experience related to Wind Release: Great Breakthrough appeared in Kitazawa's mind.

Sure enough, Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi was secretly observing them.

His words just now must have pleased him, which allowed him to successfully complete the mission.

Unfortunately, except for Hyuga Hinata and Uchiha Sasuke, none of the other rookies triggered new missions for him.

"Let's begin our class now."

Kitazawa picked up a piece of chalk, showing a warm smile, and said, "The class we are going to have is called the fire will."

The atmosphere in the classroom changed instantly; there was no longer the previous silence.

"Do you know what the fire will has to do with the Hokage?"

Kitazawa asked after writing the four characters for fire will.

"Me!"

Uzumaki Naruto immediately raised his hand.

"Naruto, you answer."

Seeing this, Kitazawa nodded and said.

"The fire will was proposed by the Hokage!"

Uzumaki Naruto stood up and said loudly.

"Then do you know why the Hokage proposed the fire will?"

Kitazawa asked again.

Uzumaki Naruto's expression froze, becoming awkward.

This question was too profound for him.

"It's for you."

Kitazawa said something astonishing.

"Us?"

Uzumaki Naruto asked with a surprised expression.

Not only him, but all the other students had the same expression.

"Where the tree leaves dance, fire will burn. The light of the fire will continue to illuminate the Village and make new leaves sprout."

Kitazawa explained, "The focus of the fire will is on you, because you are Konoha's future, its hope."

"This is the first time I've heard such a statement."

"So I'm that amazing?"

"Does that mean even Hokage-sama has to protect me?"

Kitazawa couldn't help but smile as he listened to their discussions.

There was nothing fundamentally wrong with the fire will, but implementing it was not so easy.

For example, Danzo Shimura, the "Darkness of the Ninja World" and "First Pot Shadow."

He often used the banner of the fire will to do unspeakable things.

Ultimately, theory alone is just a castle in the air.

But none of this concerned him at the moment.

He only needed to use the fire will to deceive Hiruzen Sarutobi.

It could be said he was using the Inverse Heavenly Gang technique.

"Class dismissed, ten-minute break."

Kitazawa heard the bell ring, picked up his materials, and left the classroom.

As a teacher, he maintained a good habit: never extending class time.

"Ino, I won!"

Sakura Haruno rushed like an arrow released from a bow to Uchiha Sasuke's front, then turned her head and said very proudly.

"No!"

Ino Yamanaka reached out, her face showing pain.

Heh, women.

Nara Shikamaru immediately slumped onto his desk, radiating listlessness.

In his opinion, women were nothing but trouble, especially beautiful women.

He just wanted to marry an ordinary woman and live out the rest of his life smoothly.

Akimichi Choji's thoughts were very pure; he simply pulled out a bag of potato chips.

I'll just eat, eat, eat.jpg.

Ino Yamanaka gritted her teeth, looking at the flamboyant Sakura Haruno, and suddenly thought of Kitazawa.

No handsome young man, then find a handsome older man.

Just as she was about to head to the office, a blonde had already chased after him.

I was here first!

Ino Yamanaka sighed and sat back down.

Hyuga Hinata hesitated for a moment, then took out her textbook and began reviewing.

She was a diligent student.

"Kitazawa-sensei, wait for me!"

Uzumaki Naruto accelerated, performed a drain-pipe turn, and rushed forward.

"Naruto, was there anything I didn't explain clearly during class?"

Kitazawa stopped and asked.

"No."

Uzumaki Naruto quickly shook his head and said, "Kitazawa-sensei, you explained it really well, I understood everything!"

What do you mean, you understood everything?

How unconfident are you?

But Kitazawa thought about it again and understood.

When they enrolled, there was an assessment, and Uzumaki Naruto was last.

"Then what do you need me for?"

Kitazawa asked with a smile.

"I want to know how I can gain everyone's approval?"

Uzumaki Naruto looked up and asked with an expectant expression.

"You're still... This question is very simple, you just need to learn from Hokage-sama."

Kitazawa paused, then changed his words.

He had originally intended to say, 'You're still young, you'll naturally understand when you grow up,' but he suddenly remembered that Hiruzen Sarutobi might still be watching.

"Oh, right!"

Uzumaki Naruto suddenly realized and said, "I understand, thank you, Kitazawa-sensei!"

"See you next class."

Kitazawa smiled, then turned and left.

There are two types of teacher offices: independent single rooms and mixed multi-person rooms.

Kitazawa's office was an independent single room.

The reason was simple.

He was considered a mid-level leader, roughly equivalent to a dean of students in a previous life.

After all, he had taught for five years, and had been rated as the most outstanding teacher for three consecutive years.

Ahem.

Aside from his teaching ability, the most important thing was that his fire will theory was favored by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

One must survive, it's not shameful.

In Konoha Village, being able to curry favor with the Hokage was something many people envied.

Of course, if he could curry favor, he would prefer to curry favor with the Fifth Generation Hokage.

After all, he was a fan of the ball game.

Kitazawa did not return to his own office, but instead went to the mixed large office.

The large office had six desks put together, representing six teachers, all of whom were first-year teachers.

"Kitazawa-senpai."

Iruka Umino noticed him and quickly stood up to greet him.

"Iruka."

Kitazawa smiled and asked, "First time teaching, nervous?"

Iruka Umino had only become a teacher this year; he wasn't even eighteen yet.

"A little nervous."

Iruka Umino said awkwardly.

"It's normal to be nervous the first time."

Kitazawa comforted him, saying, "I just finished class, and the students in the class are all very good, you don't need to worry too much."

"Thank you, Kitazawa-senpai."

Iruka Umino said gratefully.

After watching him leave, Kitazawa went to the bookshelf in the corner of the office.

Here were the student files for all the first-year classes.

He needed to find the three mischievous children who had bullied Hyuga Hinata.
