Chapter 73 Shikamaru: I smell fun!
"Hello everyone, my name is Karin Uzumaki, and I'll just call her Naruto's cousin."
"I like family and handsome men, and my dream is to become as amazing as Grandma Mito!"
Sunlight shone on Karin's red hair, causing Minato, who was inside the sealed space, to sigh with emotion.
It seems like she's just like Kushina back then.
However, with Naruto's encouragement, it was clear that Karin was braver.
Oh, you're asking why Kushina didn't come to watch?
She's still sleeping, but she's still clutching a few cards in her hand, muttering things like "bomb" under her breath.
Minato expressed his incomprehension of this, but accepted it.
After all, she's his wife.
It's just a pity about Nine-Tails.
The fox looked much more haggard.
Nine-Tails: Then you come and take my place!!! Why are you just standing there!!!
Ahem, let's return to the classroom.
Iruka looked at Karin, who had just joined the class, with mixed feelings.
Listen, liking handsome guys, what a brave and precocious statement!
He sounds like a promising young talent, just like the others in the class.
However, Mito-sama should be the wife of the First Generation, Uzumaki Mito.
After all, they are from the Uzumaki clan.
But thinking about it this way, isn't Naruto also surnamed Uzumaki?
His parents...
Oh no, have I found the key point?
No wonder the Third Hokage valued Naruto so much.
Thinking about the recent events in Konoha involving people with the surname Uzumaki, Iruka's body trembled, and the way he looked at Naruto changed from how he looked at the bull to a hint of surprise.
Naruto: Hmm? You want to hear my story too?
I, Naruto Uzumaki, am just an ordinary person.
Although my teacher was the First Hokage, my grandfather was the Third Hokage, and my father was the Fourth Hokage.
However, I am just an ordinary child of the Uzumaki clan, well, although there is a big fox inside me.
"Ahem, that was quite a unique speech."
"Karin mentioned Mito-senpai, right? She's very skilled in sealing techniques."
"If you want to become someone like her, I suggest you go to the library and learn about sealing techniques."
Iruka gave Karin's self-introduction a very distinctive summary.
However, this is another case of someone with connections, and incredibly powerful connections at that.
You should know that if someone calls Mito-sama "Grandma," then their generation is almost the same as Tsunade-sama's.
Tsk, it has the same traits as the kid before, but it's no big deal. I'm going to be the principal, how could I back down because of this?
"Okay, then you can sit in the fifth row. There's another seat over there."
Iruka thoughtfully arranged for Karin to sit in the row behind Naruto.
There are three seats in the back row, two of which are occupied by Shikamaru and Choji.
The last one is behind Sasuke. Originally, many girls wanted it, but they were all intimidated by Sasuke's aura.
Well, they couldn't keep going, so no one sat down.
As for the brave Ino, she wanted to sit with her best friend.
Ino: Anyway, Sasuke is right next to me, so it's not a bad deal at all. Plus, I can see Sakura's cute expressions when she gets anxious now and then. Hehe, not bad at all.
Karin successfully obtained this throne.
"Ugh, women, they're such a hassle."
Shikamaru looked at Karin walking over and sighed helplessly.
Well, she's Naruto's cousin after all, so I guess I'll just have to put up with it.
However, from Karin's words and her eyes, Shikamaru, through comparison, concluded that she shared the same goal as most of the girls in the class.
Hey, things are getting interesting.
A rare glimmer of anticipation flashed in Shikamaru's usually lazy eyes.
This is hilarious! A rare treat!
"Crunch."
After chewing the potato chips he took from Choji's cabinet, Shikamaru began to look forward to it.
After all, who doesn't like to have fun?
Within ten seconds, Karin was sitting next to Shikamaru.
"Hello, you must be Shikamaru. Nice to meet you from now on."
Karin greeted Shikamaru in a very casual manner and also gave Shikamaru and Choji some fruit.
Yes, Naruto gave it to her to help her get closer to him.
After all, these two were chosen by the cheap older brother to be friends with; they were people who had transcended low-level interests, not dull villagers.
For example, the hostile and disdainful gazes around you.
Some of them came from Sasuke's female fans in the class, and some came from those who disliked Karin's red hair and surname.
Actually, the village now has a variety of hair colors, such as Sakura's pink hair, Kakashi's white hair, Hinata's dark blue hair, Naruto's golden hair, and so on.
However, most people still prefer ordinary colors, which clearly indicates a sense of inferiority.
"Oh, thank you."
Shikamaru took the fruit Karin offered, glancing at Naruto who was playfully fighting with Hinata.
Surprisingly, he's a good older brother.
At this moment, Naruto is discussing with Hinata their plan to take Karin to a barbecue restaurant for a meal.
Yes, Akimichi yakiniku restaurant holds many wonderful memories for Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata.
This includes having barbecue together, eating skewers together, and Naruto and Sasuke's first kiss (Naruto & Sasuke: Let's not talk about these memories!).
But this time I'm taking everyone with me.
I might not have enough money. I'll ask my great-grandfather for some next time I take a bath.
"Hey, Sasuke, how about a get-together tonight? Let's go to a barbecue restaurant."
Naruto poked Sasuke's kidneys and winked.
"Barbecue? Hmm, sure, I brought money."
Because of Naruto, who is her friend (and boss), Mikoto always gives Sasuke a lot of money whenever he goes out to play.
Hinata's situation was similar, but her main concern was that her daughter might go hungry and not have money for food.
Japanese Football: How could my daughter let that blond guy treat us? We'd be a laughingstock if word got out! She has to pay, she absolutely has to pay.
During the break, I talked to a few people and we all agreed to form a team of six in the fourth and fifth rows.
Then, after Shikamaru inadvertently revealed it, a blonde and a pink-haired person joined the team.
"Sakura, is everything alright at home?"
Ino was a little worried that Sakura's family wouldn't allow her to eat out.
"It's okay, Ino, you can come with me."
A flame ignited in Sakura's eyes.
Karin Uzumaki, her intuition told her that she definitely had feelings for Sasuke.
After all, when the handsome guy in the class is mentioned, everyone can immediately guess who he is.
"Alright, then let me take care of you."
Ino sighed and ruffled Sakura's hair.
"Don't act like a grown-up!!!"
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
At this moment, Karin had a brilliant idea.
It seems my cheap older brother has something going on, although there doesn't seem to be much progress, but I can sense that the girl who rolled her eyes is thinking about my brother.
Isn't that different from what Grandma Mito said?
Hey, the plan works!
Call for submissions: Tobirama is finally coming! Should we give him to Sasuke or Itachi? ヾ( ･`⌓´･)ﾉﾞ
