Although I don't know what the connection is between a big chest and a Jonin, Hakushi still thinks so.
"Don't worry, this place isn't a dragon's den or tiger's lair. Working with me is much safer than with Sakumo."
Tsunade has a great appreciation for Hakushi's medical knowledge.
He has some deficiencies in several areas, but as long as his knowledge reservoir is sufficient and his experience is rich enough, he's very suitable to be her assistant and teach those newbies.
"Yes, I'm very satisfied with this job."
Hakushi nodded his head.
But to be honest, the Sakumo team wasn't that dangerous either, because every mission was completed very quickly. The other three would charge in and wreak havoc upon encountering enemies, and he only needed to cheer from the sidelines, and the battle would come to a magnificent end.
"Follow me."
Tsunade led the way in front, heading in a direction that Hakushi still remembered clearly.
It was the class where he learned his medical knowledge.
The experimental class has graduated many times now, right?
Really looking forward to seeing the young, cute juniors.
The class time for the Medical Ninja training experimental class, to avoid conflicting with the main courses, is still from three in the afternoon to a little after five.
During the graduation exam, the passing score for the experimental class students will be lowered, and there are subsidies during normal times.
The number of students in this class is more than Hakushi's original class, close to forty people. It seems these years of strong promotion of the importance of Medical Ninjas internally, along with many subsidies, have been quite effective.
There are more girls here, with only a few boys.
All the students were very curious, looking at the young man next to Tsunade, guessing who he was.
"This is your senior, Chiba Hakushi, one of my students from long ago. He will be working with me now, let's give him a warm welcome."
After Tsunade spoke, the students below applauded.
Hakushi nodded amicably, displaying the demeanor expected of a senior.
Next up was the formal class time.
Compared to before, Tsunade's teaching methods are more groundbreaking, able to dissect many problems incisively.
And the students here are all very convinced by Tsunade, and their learning attitude is much more serious than the students from Hakushi's year.
When Tsunade got tired of teaching, she let Hakushi continue. With his rich knowledge, Hakushi quickly adapted to catch up with Tsunade's pace.
The experiments could also keep up with Tsunade, not leaving much room for her to pick faults.
This kid has grown a lot, with him here, maybe I can slack off a bit, go to the casino or tavern... Just the thought of it made Tsunade smile.
Getting this kid from Sakumo was indeed the right choice.
The perfect tool guy.
"Really, is all the work being dumped on me on the first day?"
After class, seeing the empty seat next to him where Tsunade was sitting, Hakushi sighed, not knowing what to say.
"Um, Senior Hakushi, can I ask you some questions?"
After everyone left, a girl with shoulder-length dark brown hair, a warm smile, and a very sweet and cute appearance came over.
"No problem."
Hakushi readily agreed to her request, letting her sit beside him to discuss the medical knowledge she didn't understand.
Just as he was about to speak, a roar suddenly came from outside the classroom door:
"What do you think you're doing, getting so close to Lin! Damn it, take this!"
Shouting, he recklessly charged at Hakushi with a fierce determination.
Hakushi immediately tilted his head, and the attacker flew gracefully over his head, ending up pasted against the opposite wall.
His shout came to an abrupt stop as he slid down the wall.
"Obi...Obito!?"
The girl, Lin, recognized the boy who had attacked Hakushi as her classmate, Obito, and quickly ran over to make sure he was okay.
"Are you alright?"
"Haha, no...no problem. This little injury is nothing. Look how sturdy I am! This is nothing!"
He blushed and jumped up from the ground, doing exaggerated stretches to show he was perfectly fine.
"Hey, classmate, were you trying to demonstrate how a gecko sticks to the wall earlier? Even though it's after class, you should still be mindful of your actions."
Hakushi walked over, looking at this boy with a headache.
Here he comes, the troublemaker who often gives teachers headaches at school.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know your background, you're the 'freeloader Hakushi' from our Uchiha clan, aren't you?"
It seemed he was trying to embarrass Hakushi.
Hakushi nodded: "That's right, I admit it."
What? He admitted it? Without hesitation?
Is this really something to be proud of?
Obito was at a loss for words.
"When a woman is willing to support a man, don't you think that's also a skill?"
Hakushi said.
Obito was speechless, wanting to argue but didn't know how.
"Speaking of which, you just said 'our Uchiha'... are you also from Uchiha?"
"Of course, didn't you see the emblem on the back of my clothes?"
"I didn't see it. You might have drawn it on yourself."
Obito was fuming.
He swung his fist again.
Hakushi shifted his body, and his opponent ended up with his butt in the air, flat on the ground.
"Freeloader... You're really despicable! Setting a trap at my feet!"
"Obito, that was clearly you slipping, it has nothing to do with Senior Hakushi."
Lin came over, looking exasperated at Obito.
"..."
Hakushi was a bit speechless watching the scene.
This guy... is he really from the Uchiha?
Ruri's clansman?
No doubt about it, he's a real idiot.
