Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

“This is the number one Shinobi Village in the Shinobi World, huh?”

“It’s so prosperous!”

“And the street is so clean.”

“The public order is excellent too. I saw several groups of patrolling Shinobi on my way here.”

In the following days, the teams from Takigakure and Kusagakure arrived one after another, and without exception, they were all impressed by the prosperity and cleanliness of Konoha. Combined with the scenery of the Land of Fire along the way and the registration form at the village’s entrance, many less resolute Genin began to entertain thoughts of immigrating to Konoha, and they felt too ashamed to even lift their heads.

“That registration form is really a stroke of genius.”

In Hokage’s Office, Minato looked at the surveillance reports from the Anbu with admiration.

Speaking of which, apart from the village's public order being maintained by the Military Police Force, the ideas of expanding the village gates, hiring people to clean the streets regularly, and the registration form were all ideas suggested by Kanpū. And the effects are remarkable.

It not only improves the living standards of Konoha’s residents and the village's prestige, but also invisibly attracts the Shinobi from other Shinobi Villages. If one day, Minato really unifies the Shinobi World, then this attractiveness would be invaluable.

Of course, currently, the most important thing for Konoha was to successfully organize this Joint Chunin Exam and continue it as a tradition!

July 1, Konoha’s 57th Year.

On a street in a certain district, Naruto, Sakura, Hinata, Karin, Sasuke and the others, who were on summer break, were strolling.

“Sakura, Sakura, have you noticed anything strange about the village lately?” Naruto, the loyal dog, approached Sakura with a silly grin on his face.

Sakura smiled and took two steps to the left, increasing the distance between them and being cautious as she glanced at Sasuke. Seeing that he didn’t show any signs of annoyance or jealousy, she breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a bit sad.

“Sakura, Sakura?” Naruto continued to approach humbly.

“Ah, oh, what?” Sakura came back to her senses and looked awkwardly at Naruto.

Naruto completely failed to notice Sakura's indifference and exclaimed excitedly: “There are suddenly a lot of weird Shinobi in the village.”

“Idiot, those are Genin from other Shinobi Villages.”

Karin, who already knew the ‘truth’ from Kanpū early in the morning, and immediately rushed forward and squeezed between Sasuke and Sakura, and said, “They are here to participate in the Joint Chunin Exam!”

‘Joint Chunin Exam?’

Sasuke’s eyes narrowed: ‘Big brother has been especially busy recently, is it because of this matter?’

“That sounds very interesting. Sakura, how about we go watch their exams? It must be very fun!” Naruto looked at Sakura with anticipation.

“Hey, you little brat from Konoha! What do you think Chunin Exam is?”

Suddenly, an arrogant voice came from ahead, “Who do you think you are? Is the Chunin Exam something you can watch just because you want to?!”

“Bastard, what did you say!” Naruto became furious. It's one thing to insult him, but they can't insult him in front of Sakura.

‘Unforgivable!’

“Hmph!”

Suigetsu squinted Naruto proudly, arrogantly leading the eight grotesquely shaped Genin, and rudely pushed through Naruto's group, forcefully passing through them.

‘How dare he!!’

Naruto clenched his fists, looking fierce as if he were about to rush forward and send them all flying!

“Hey, if you don't do anything, they'll leave.” Karin kicked Naruto’s ankle.

“What!” Naruto complained to his friends in dissatisfaction, “Why didn't any of you stop me?”

“Well, you didn't step forward either, did you?” Karin asked back.

“Hehe…” Naruto laughed awkwardly, rubbing his head, and then said, “Karin, do you know which village they are from?”

Karin snorted as she turned her head away and ignored him.

“Looking at the symbol on their forehead protector, they should be Kirigakure’s Shinobi.” Hinata, the straight-A student, said.

“Kirigakure’s Shinobi?” Naruto, the last ranker, was puzzled.

“It is the Shinobi Village of the Land of Water. They are one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages like our village.” Hinata said with a smile.

“So cool!” Naruto’s eyes sparkled, feeling that a whole new world had opened up in front of him, “The Five Great Shinobi Villages… Besides our village and Kirigakure, what are the other Shinobi Villages?”

‘Iruka-sensei already introduced this in the first grade…’ Sasuke shook his head, hands in pockets, and walked away straight: “Idiot.”

“Hey, what do you mean?!” Naruto said.

“Sasuke-kun, wait for me.” Sakura immediately went to chase after Sasuke.

“Darn it, you guys can’t leave me behind!” Karin decisively followed suit upon seeing this.

“Hey hey, tell me!” Naruto was both anxious and annoyed.

“Naruto, the Five Great Shinobi Villages are our Konoha, Kirigakure, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kumogakure.” Hinata, feeling sorry for him, answered.

“Will all five participate in this exam?” Naruto, now curious, asked.

Hinata shook her head and said: “I'm not sure about that.”

“I see…”

Naruto, hands behind his head, walked with rolled eyes. After a while, he grinned and said, “Hinata, how about we participate in their exams?”

“Naruto, we're not even a Genin. We don't qualify for the Chunin Exam.” Hinata said.

“I don’t care!”

Naruto said defiantly. As the son of Yondaime Hokage, doesn’t he even have some privilege?

Then reality hit him …

“No way!”

In the Hokage's Office, Minato put down the paperworks at hand, and stared at Naruto rather helplessly, “Naruto, Chunin Exam is a big event. Stop fooling around!”

Naruto pouted his cheeks in grievance and grumbled: “Dad, I already promised Sakura and the others. If you don't agree, I won't have the face to meet them again!”

“You…” Minato covered his forehead, remembering that Kushina used to act similarly when she was a child, but why at that time, he couldn’t get angry at all, however, when it came to Naruto, it was so much more frustrating?

‘Is it because Naruto’s hair is not red?’

Minato sighed and said: “Naruto, I still have work to do. Take your classmates to Ichiraku Ramen, and I'll cover the bill, okay?”

“No way!”

Naruto was wronged, and secretly thought that his father didn’t care about his own reputation at all!

Naruto turned and slammed the door fiercely, but hesitated when descending the stairs.

‘What should I do?’

‘I had already made a promise to Sakura and others. If it can’t be done, Sakura, no, Sasuke and even Karin, those two idiots would definitely mock me!’

At this moment, Naruto saw Kanpū walking confidently up the stairs.

As soon as he saw this, Naruto’s eyes lit up, and he immediately collapsed on the spot: “Kan~Pū~Sen~sei~~~”

‘Wah~’

‘I am so pitiful~’

Naruto wailed loudly.

“All right, all right, it’s just thunder without rain, clearly fake.” Kanpū was taken aback at first, but upon closer inspection, he realized it was just an act.

“Hehehe…” Naruto awkwardly scratched his head, then pulled Kanpū to the corner of the stairs, and confided in about the major problems he faced in life.

‘That’s it?’

Kanpū couldn't help but sigh: “Kids who haven't reached puberty are really carefree.”

“Kanpū-sensei, what’s puberty?” Naruto asked in confusion.

“When you realize the importance of your left hands, you’ll understand.” Kanpū explained casually, and then said, “Come with me. I'll take care of this matter.”

“Really?!” Naruto was overjoyed, feeling like he got some reputation back.
