Chapter 2: Chapter 2: First skill
"Alright Students, listen up as I will not repeat myself!"
Iruka had a list in his hand, and it had the teams on it, along with the ones that were in those teams, one by one Iruka started calling them out.
"Team 1 Consists of..."
"Team 2 consists of..."
"Team 3 consists of..."
"Team 4 consists of..."
"Team 5 consists of..."
"Team 6 consists of..."
"Team 7 consists of Naruot Uzumaki, Uchiha Sasuke, and Sakura Haruno"
"Yeah!"
Sakura jumped up and shouted in excitement, Ino Yamanaka sneering from the back even though she knew she wouldn't be placed on Sasuke's team as she was in a clan-arranged team.
Naruto Uzumaki on the other hand had a sneer on his face as he looked at Sasuke Uchiha, who ignored him and Sakura both, his hands covering his mouth as his eyes remained cold and distant.
"Now, for team 8 it consists of Hnata Hyuga, Shino Aburame and... Shinju Ichida?"
Iruka sighed puzzled as he said the last part of the team, and everyone looked back to the end of the classroom, Shinju had a dark look on his face as he heard this, not to mention the attention he was receiving.
'System, explain!'
Shinju thought as he felt violated by all the looks he was being given, he was definitely not looked at like Naruto, but he was still only in the middle ranks of the class.
[Host, this is a slight AU world version of the Nartuot universe, where Kiba Inuzuka had no talent for being a ninja, this is the case, so you can get on a relevant team.]
"What! How is that possible, I should be the one on that team, Hinata, Say something!"
Kiba Inuzuka stood up from his seat, his face contorted in anger and confusion as he looked at Iruka and Hinata, his eyes locked onto Shinju, and anger simmered in his eyes.
But in this world, he had no talent for being a ninja, so nobody even batted an eye at his words, he was only better than Naruto in the eyes of everyone in the classroom, even if he was from a ninja clan.
"Kiba, I understand you want to be with your friends, but the Hokage made this list, so I can't change it"
Iruka said with an apologetic smile on his face, But Kiba did not seem like he expected this result, and he turned to look at Shinju with the stare of a killer.
But Shinju was obviously not intimidated by the look of a 12-year-old, so he just stared at him with neutral eyes, like looking at a bystander, because that's what he was.
"Bastard Shinju, if you dare, fight me after school in the evening, if you don't, then give up that seat"
Kiba said with a sneer on his face, even if he was not talented enough to be a shinobi, he was from a middle-level clan in Konoha, and he could easily make Shinju leave team 8.
All he has to do is prove that Shinju won't dare fight him, and then his mother, the clan leader can go and have the Hokage put him in team 8 as a replacement.
Shinju looked at Kiba in panic, even if Kiba had no ninja talent as the system said, he was still a shinobi, and from a clan, meaning his physical prowess and chakra might be many times stronger than an adult even.
Not to mention, he might have learned his clan's technique, where he turns into a drill along with Akamaru.
[Don't worry host, did you forget about me and my skills?]
Shinju was woken up from his slumber, and he suddenly felt his panic get washed away as relief filled his mind, why was he afraid of Kiba when he had a system?
'You are right, sorry for doubting you'
Shinju said in his mind before he stood up, his face was calm, and he looked like he was not even bothered by Kiba.
"Fine, I will accept your term, but don't you think it's unfair since I won't get anything out of this fight?"
Shinju asked with a cold voice, he won't get anything out of this fight, even if he fights and wins, so he has to make some terms in favour of him, after all, he is a nobody currently.
"Oh yeah? What do you want to fight me?"
Kiba asked in confusion as he stared at Shinju.
"I Want you to get me a D-Rank fire-style Ninjutsu in return"
Kiba stared at him in confusion, but then he got it and figured out that Civilians, not to mention orphans, probably don't have any type of ninjutsu they can learn.
Except for the 3 academy ninjutsu which the academy starts to teach in the 3rd year of school.
"Fine, I will go and get it now, since you probably have no ninjutsu up your sleeves"
Kiba smirked as he stood up, and started walking out of the classroom, getting a D-Rank fire-style ninjutsu is easy for him, all he has to do is ask for a copy of the scroll from his mother.
"Shinju, are you sure you want to fight him?"
Iruka stared at Shinju in worry, he was like him when he was younger after all, except he did not make a fool of himself just for a little bit of attention.
"I am fine Iruka-Sensei, don't worry"
Shinju nodded his head, and he walked back to his seat, The Classroom was finished now, and instead, they had a free class day today, he couldn't just sit here while waiting.
'System, what about my chakra?'
[Host, just close your eyes and feel a tiny energy in your stomach, then try to move it with your mind, causing a mix between physical and spiritual energy, creating chakra in the process.]
Shinju followed the process of finding his chakra, and in his mind, he started searching for a feeling that he did not have in his original body, he did not have chakra after all.
It's kind of like trying to find something in your body that you know is not there, but this body actually has that thing, allowing you to find it.
A few minutes later, Shinju suddenly felt a warmth in his stomach, his mind latched onto the feeling, and the energy suddenly started mixing, creating a light blue flame-like energy.
[Ding! Congratulations on getting the skill, Chakra Control. Lv1]
