Chapter 9 - The redhaired arrived (1/2)

3 weeks later

”Okay class, calm down. Today we have a new classmate, coming here from another village to study in Konoha's academy” Said the first-year class 1-A academy's teacher

”Oh, is it a guy or a girl?” ”Hmph, coming here to leach off the strongest village, this new classmate is impudent” ”True, true, we don't need an outsider in our village” The teacher's declaration caused a ruckus among the students.

”SILENCE!” Shouted Amato. He took a deep breath, calming himself. Even if he thinks the same thing as his students, it's an order from the Hokage, so he can only let it be. And it's not like it will change anything for him, so he doesn't really care about it.

Meanwhile, Minato looks at this scene with disinterest 'They truly are pitiful, Konoha is the strongest village? It isn't the case anymore, they think we still have that monster Hashirama as a Hokage? The Sandaime is just one human, even if he is really strong in the end the third Raikage can take him down. The worst is that the civilians think they are big shot just because they are part of Konoha, I've never seen such a ridiculous misplaced pride. At least the clans have kekkei genkai to be proud of, but they are just weakling... Sigh, human stupidity'

”Minato, do you think the new student will be strong?”

”Hm, who knows. I just hope she will not be boring” Answering to Tsume, Minato unconsciously smiled. During those three weeks since coming into this world, his clone became a good friend with her. She was truly interesting, thanks to her he was never bored even during those dull lessons, she always does something amusing. Hanging out with her is thousands of times better than with the 'true' Minato's friends, a boring bunch of boastful kids.

'But today is Taijutsu class, so I'm forced to come here. Even if there is no way that my clone will lose against them, there is no harm in taking precautions. The term 'lucky shot' doesn't exist for nothing'

”Bark bark” Looking down at Tsume ninken, a cute dark grey and white dog, Minato petted him and asked ”You think so too Kuromaru, maybe he or she will be able to outprank Tsume”

”There is no way!” Argued Tsume.

”Tsume Inuzuka! What do you not understand in the word silence?!” Exclaimed a fuming Amato sensei

”Sorry sensei” Tsume glared at Minato, and turn her head the other way with a huff.

'Cute' Thought Minato

'This girl Tsume give me a headache with all her pranks, and she even ropes in the good student Minato, sigh... A teacher life sure is hard' Thought Amato ”Kushina, you can enter”

The door opened, and a cute, round redhaired head peeked through the door. Her purple eyes blinked and analyze the class that she will be for the years to come. The rest of her body followed. She then walks to the teacher's desk and stopped near it.

”Introduce yourself to the class” Urged the teacher

”I'm Kushina U-U-U...I'm Kushina Uzumaki and I will become Hokage dattebane!”

Silence reigned for a moment before a series of laughter rang out in the class ”HAHAHAHA”

”A girl Hokage, what a joke” ”An outsider wanting to be Hokage, she is foolish” ”Return where you come from outsider!” ”Look at her hair, she looks like a tomato!” ”Tomato hair!” ”Tomato hair!”
