Chapter 16: Kurenai Yuhi
The other team member was a rather bulky fat person, a member of the Akimichi clan, whose name was a bit comical, Akimichi Ponc, sounding like 'pants'.
Like Akimichi Choji, one of the Konoha Twelve Rookies in the original work, Akimichi Ponc also loved to eat.
From the moment they met, he hadn't stopped eating.
Because there were no Yamanaka clan or Nara clan members in this class, they couldn't form the Ino–Shika–Chō, so they were assigned here.
After the three were assigned to a class, they simply introduced themselves and then didn't speak again.
Just as Qianye thought they would be like Kakashi's Seventh Class in the original work, the classroom door was pushed open in the evening.
A beautiful woman walked in. Yes, you heard that right, a beautiful woman.
She had black, curly hair parted in the middle, red eyes, a cool and beautiful face, and a graceful figure.
At first glance, she looked to be around twenty years old, but she possessed a maturity that a young girl did not.
Overall, she exuded a sensual beauty that made people feel a sense of delight.
"Tsk tsk… these eyes, this hairstyle, this figure… *cough cough*… could it be Kurenai Yuhi?" Qianye complained wildly in his heart.
After the beautiful woman walked into the classroom, she looked at the three, nodded slightly, walked to the podium, and wrote three large characters on the blackboard—Kurenai Yuhi.
"My name is Kurenai Yuhi. I am a newly promoted Special Jonin of Konoha. My favorite foods are sake, vodka, and wasabi octopus. I dislike cake. I specialize in genjutsu. This is my first time as a team leader. Next, I will take you to receive missions. From now on, you are my students. You can call me Sensei Kurenai or Sensei Yuhi."
"Alright, now it's your turn to introduce yourselves."
"I… I… I…" Airi, the only female among the three, excitedly raised her hand, "My name is Akizuki Airi. I'm good at… Sensei Kurenai, you are so… so beautiful… so pretty."
Akimichi Ponc grabbed a handful of potato chips and stuffed them into his mouth, chewing loudly as he began his self-introduction, "I'm Akimichi Ponc. My favorite foods are potato chips and grilled meat. I don't dislike any food. I specialize in the Partial Expansion Jutsu."
When it was Fujiwara Chiye's turn, the long-lost system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Ding! As the strongest loli-con of his generation, how can you let this big loli remain a widow for that short-lived Asuma Sarutobi? Choose!]
"1. After a self-introduction, kiss Kurenai Yuhi's hand and confess to her. Reward: Perfect Water Release Chakra and Nature Transformation."
"2. Allow Kurenai Yuhi to be relentlessly pursued by Asuma Sarutobi. Reward: Utatane Koharu's old underwear."
Underwear again.
And it's that old hag Utatane Koharu's, no less!
Qianye's mouth twitched fiercely.
This was forcing him into social death.
Akizuki Airi, seeing that Qianye had not yet introduced himself, gently nudged him and whispered, "Qianye-kun, it's your turn to introduce yourself."
Qianye nodded slightly and stated the answer he had already decided on, "My name is Fujiwara Chiye. My favorite food is stir-fried bell peppers and eggs. I dislike cilantro and animal organs. I specialize in taijutsu."
Saying this, he took a deep breath.
As if having made some major decision, he walked in front of Kurenai Yuhi and said seriously, "Sensei Kurenai, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Not yet." Kurenai Yuhi was stunned, her pretty face instantly turning red.
Although she was already a Special Jonin, she was still a young woman who had not yet experienced romance, and for a moment, she was at a loss.
Hearing this, Qianye took her hand, lightly kissed it, and said, "Then please go out with me, Sensei Kurenai."
Crack!
Akizuki Airi and Akimichi Ponc's eyes instantly widened in shock.
Even Kurenai Yuhi, who had always prided herself on being composed, couldn't help but panic.
Suddenly, she felt her mind go blank.
In her entire life, this was the first time someone had confessed to her face!
And it was a kid!
Although this kid looked pretty good and was said to have decent talent, oh my goodness, Kurenai Yuhi, what are you even thinking?
Just as Kurenai Yuhi was lost in thought, the system prompt sounded again in Qianye's mind, "Ding! Mission complete. Congratulations to the host for obtaining Perfect Water Release Chakra and Nature Transformation."
Qianye's lips subtly curved into a slight arc, and he put on an act, standing up and saying with a hint of regret, "It seems Sensei Kurenai still thinks I'm too young. Then let's date when I grow up."
As he spoke, Qianye walked down from the podium under the admiring gazes of Akizuki Airi and Akimichi Ponc.
Akizuki Airi even gave Qianye a direct thumbs-up, as if saying, "Qianye-kun, you're amazing! You even dared to tease a teacher."
And at this moment, Kurenai Yuhi also reacted.
Realizing she had been teased, her face turned from pale to purple, then instantly darkened. She abruptly called out to Qianye, "Qianye-kun."
"Yes." Qianye turned his head. He knew that his actions just now had angered her.
"You just said you wanted to date your teacher, right?" Kurenai Yuhi instantly appeared behind Qianye, her hand gently caressing his face.
"Is this the Body Flicker Jutsu of a Special Jonin?" Qianye watched Kurenai Yuhi's movements, his expression normal, and said with an air of not caring, "Yes."
"Then from now on, until you officially become a Chunin, I will take good care of you."
Kurenai Yuhi showed a dangerous smile, then turned her gaze to Akizuki Airi and Akimichi Ponc, "You two, come with me to the training ground. Today, I want to properly assess your strength."
"Yes." The two shivered for no reason, and under their resentful gazes, the group arrived at the training ground.
Kurenai Yuhi folded her arms across her chest and said coolly, "I'll give you time to discuss tactics. We'll all attack together later. Don't hold back. Come at me with the resolve to kill me. I will take good care of you." The last sentence was directed at Qianye.
Hearing this, Akizuki Airi and Akimichi Ponc both showed a grave expression.
Akizuki Airi said to Qianye, "Qianye-kun, although I admire your persistence with Sensei Kurenai, it seems Sensei Kurenai is getting serious. We can't possibly be a Special Jonin's opponent.
I'll act as a decoy, Ponc will attack with the Partial Expansion Jutsu, and then, taking advantage of her evasion, you use your best taijutsu against her.
Sensei Kurenai specializes in genjutsu, so taijutsu should be her weakness."
"No problem!" Qianye gave Kurenai Yuhi, who was not far away, a meaningful look. Seeing that she was also looking here, he drew his zanpakuto from his waist, creating a flash of white light, and silently chanted in his heart, "Shatter, Mirror Flower Water Moon."
With the hypnosis ritual complete, Qianye had no intention of using Mirror Flower Water Moon in this setting, so he sheathed his sword.
"Aren't you going to use your sword?" Akizuki Airi was momentarily stunned, saying with some surprise.
Qianye shook his head, deliberately raising his voice, "This isn't a death match. What if I hurt Yuhi?"
