Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space

"I plan to have Nawaki graduate early this year. Orochimaru will take him on missions then."

"The Ninja World hasn't been peaceful lately. War could erupt at any time. If you and Mikoto don't apply for early graduation, you won't even have time to adapt."

"Graduating early will give you at least some time to familiarize yourselves with missions. Your strength is also at a point where you should be undertaking missions and growing through combat."

"As for Mikoto, if she applies for early graduation, she can be arranged into Orochimaru's team."

"Once the war begins, I can arrange for your teams to carry out missions together, as Orochimaru and I likely won't have time to lead you then."

Tsunade said seriously, her gaze subtly sweeping over Mikoto.

If Mikoto didn't seize this opportunity, she might not be able to continue as Orochimaru's disciple afterward.

If she waited until next year to graduate, Mikoto would need to report to the Konoha Military Police Force to avoid the battlefield, but such a Mikoto would inevitably leave a much worse impression on Tsunade and the others.

After all, when war happens, Nawaki will also go to the battlefield.

The Senju clan dislikes war, but they have never feared it.

"Join Orochimaru-sama's team?" Mikoto exclaimed upon hearing this.

Orochimaru is currently the face of Konoha's young generation of Ninja. Even when Sakumo was still performing missions in Anbu, Orochimaru was considered the top genius in the public eye.

Mikoto hadn't expected that she would have a part in this.

Although the Uchiha are arrogant, they also admire the strong. Of course, there are also many Uchiha who are unconvinced by Orochimaru.

During her time at Tsunade's home, Mikoto had met Orochimaru before and even received some guidance from him. She never thought he might become her team leader.

"Yes, if you are willing to graduate early, Orochimaru will take you as his disciple. Your strength is similar to Nawaki's, and you have already met the requirements for early graduation."

"Of course, if you are unwilling, I won't say anything more."

Tsunade said to Mikoto with a smile in her voice.

She truly hoped that Mikoto could become Orochimaru's disciple. Mikoto is a very cautious and intelligent girl, who can perfectly balance Nawaki's impulsiveness.

This would prevent Nawaki from accidentally getting blown up.

Tsunade didn't doubt Nawaki's talent. With abundant resources and Ninjutsu provided, it was enough for Nawaki to become a strong Ninja.

But she worried about Nawaki being targeted in various ways.

A Senju who constantly talks about becoming Hokage is not a good Senju, my foolish younger brother.

Once the war begins and Orochimaru and she goes to the battlefield, Kazuki and Nawaki can also perform missions together, which will ensure their safety.

Kazuki already has Chunin level strength. If his strength can grow quickly, then she won't need to worry.

Mikoto looked at Kazuki beside her.

Seeing him nod, she said with a firm expression, "I am willing, Tsunade-sama."

Before, Mikoto had been troubled about whether to join the ranks of mission Ninja or the Konoha Military Police Force.

But since she could become Orochimaru's disciple, becoming a mission Ninja seemed like a good option too.

She could also go on missions with Kazuki later. Refusing would be too ungrateful.

Kazuki then turned his gaze to Kushina and asked, "Will you also graduate early, Kushina?"

"She won't graduate early, but she will experience missions with you. After the team disbands, Kushina needs to return to school to continue her studies."

"I might as well tell you, the other person in my team is Hyuga Hiashi. It's very likely that you will join Orochimaru's team as an individual."

"Of course, there's also a good chance that two teams will perform missions together. This will depend on everyone's personal wishes and sensei's thoughts."

Tsunade had also considered the idea of simply pulling Mikoto into her team.

Unfortunately, two Uchiha, that was clearly unrealistic.

Kushina lowered her head, looking disappointed, but she didn't throw a tantrum at Tsunade, apparently having known about this beforehand.

"I will graduate early." Kazuki thought for a moment and agreed. "Do I apply after we go back?"

Kazuki didn't refuse the idea of Hiashi joining his team. Although the Hyuga clan was a bit rigid, the Byakugan was indeed useful.

It was a pity that Hiashi didn't join Nawaki's team, otherwise Nawaki wouldn't have been blown up by an Explosive Tag.

"Just apply in three months. Sarutobi-sensei will agree very quickly." Tsunade waved her hand.

"During these three months, I will teach you the Chakra enhanced Strength. I hope you can master the basics within these three months."

"And Mikoto, you can also try learning it. Even if you can't master it, it can still train your Chakra control."

In fact, she didn't believe anyone could master Chakra enhanced Strength in three months.

"I will work hard!"

…

Over the next three months, Kazuki grew at a pace that left Tsunade in despair.

Three months.

Do you know how she got through these three months?

Kazuki actually mastered Chakra enhanced Strength from scratch, even integrating it into his own combat style, which made Tsunade start to doubt herself.

She prided herself on having been called a genius by many, but how come compared to Kazuki, she wasn't so outstanding anymore?

And looking at Mito's expression, it seemed she had long expected Kazuki to perform this way, which made Tsunade wonder if perhaps true geniuses were all like this.

Compared to ordinary Ninja, she, Tsunade, was indeed a genius, but compared to true geniuses, she was nothing.

Little did she know, Kazuki had still given Tsunade face. If he hadn't held back, learning the Strength of a Hundred Seal in one month would have been more than enough.

Fortunately, when Tsunade later taught Kazuki Medical Ninjutsu, she regained her pride.

Medical Ninjutsu, wasn't it just a matter of simple study to learn?

Why did Kazuki need to be so serious and diligent?

Indeed, in terms of Medical Ninjutsu, no one was her match. She easily became the best in Konoha, and very likely the best in the Ninja World.

And although Kazuki was a genius, he still couldn't compare to her.

In reality, Kazuki's speed in researching Medical Ninjutsu was already very fast, but his focus wasn't on it, and his talent in that aspect wasn't particularly outstanding.
