'Not that I'm afraid of the confrontation, quite the opposite actually, I feel excited, but I'm not that dumb to not know that I could die with her just lifting her finger. And I don't plan to die this soon.' I thought with some concerns as I planned to meet Mito.
I then looked around to see that every student's focus was on us much to my annoyance again.
They sure do like to stick their nose in people's business. And what's with those jealous and angry looks getting thrown at me? Do they have a crush on my Tsunade? I thought with a wide grin and looked at them with a stare promising pain.
They immediately looked away in fear and went back to doing their stuff.
"Well, that's what I wanted to hear from you." I heard Ken say with his hand on my shoulder and I just nodded at him.
Hmm, this dude sure became relaxed around me real fast. Does it have anything to do with that test he did? Can someone become your bestie just because of what you prefer in women? This world's people really have a different pattern of thinking that weird me out sometimes.
Or my luck is just that great that I only encounter freaks?
Or am I becoming a pushover? Miller's experiences, feelings, and memories sure did have effects on my psych.
The past me would have painted this room with these future killers' blood.
My tolerance for stuff really have been devolved it seems.
But I also don't want to look like some unapproachable dude who is always emo or stuff and make mother angry at me again, so I think I'm doing good for now. Not that I will stay in this shithole after I convince my parents of something I have had in mind for long now.
At that moment, the chunin teacher came to class and started speaking after silencing everyone.

35 Minutes pass/
"It's a pretty simple assignment, but if you guys could finish during class, so I don't have to grade over the weekend, that would be amazing. If you have any questions, let me know." Katsuki said.
"Katsuki-sensei, I have a question" A girl asked which made Katsuki smile gently and approach the girl.
"How can I help little munchkin?" Katsuki said with a charming smile.
"I didn't understand you." The girl asked as she leaned closer to Katsuki.
"Silly little munchkin, was I not speaking loud enough for you to hear me?" Katsuki asked, charming smile still on his face.
"No, I was... busy." The girl replied, supporting her head with her hands.
"And that is perfectly fine. Sometimes distractions are just a little breath of fresh air, and you are a very hard-working little munchkin, so you definitely deserve the rest." Katsuki sucked up to the girl.
"I got a question too Katsuki-sensei!" A boy near Garou raised his hand.
"Tch! What you want, twerp?" Katsuki said with frustration as he looked at the ugly fucker.
"I just wanted some clarifications on the instructions." The boy said.
"I really don't like repeating myself, especially for people who don't pay attention or listen the first time." Katsuki dismissed the boy with a wave of his hand.
"I was just confused though." The boy said in a pitiful tone.
"So you deaf and stupid, boy. I'm pretty busy helping this little munchkin, so if you don't mind refraining from asking me stupid questions, thank you." Katsuki totally ignored the boy.
"Katsuki-sensei, what's... 2 plus 2?" The girl asked and Katsuki immediately lit up.
"Great question! I also forget the answer all the time!"
.
"Is he always like this?" I looked at the fuckass teacher as I asked Yuji.
"Yes." Yuji replied with a shrug.
Then I looked around at the students which I had already ignored for some time and asked Yuji, "Hey Yuji, can you tell me who that weird Uchiha is?"
"Can I answer that question?!" Ken excitedly interrupted Yuji who opened his mouth tiredly to speak.
"Well sure, go ahead. Not like I want to waste my already limited energy." Yuji replied lazily with his hands behind his head interlocked.
Ken nodded and turned to me. "Okay listen, that's Uchiha Ryu. He is the cousin of the Uchiha clan head and one of the best students here besides the three disciples of the Hokage. He is proficient in genjutsu and ninjutsu." Ken said and I looked at the Uchiha in confusion because of how he was acting flamboyantly right now while pushing back his long black hair upwards with his hand.
"You are questioning yourself if he is really an Uchiha because of how he acts, right?" Ken said with a knowing smile.
"Yeah." I replied honestly and looked at Ken, expecting an explanation.
"Well, actually there's a reason why he is like that..." He said with his smile faltering a little and I got curious.
*Munch munch munch.*
Amidst the munching of Satoshi eating chips which gave an idea to me for later, Ken began to whisper near my ear while we looked at Ryu together. "Two years ago Ryu used to be broody, silent and an emo kid who always had this serious unapproachable aura around him, you know, just like the usual Uchihas you see out there." He whispered with a frown.
"So what happened?" I whispered back, interested in the topic.
There is no internet here, so gossiping sometimes is the way to pass time.
"One day, he suddenly fell in love with a civilian student girl." He paused for a moment which made me more interested. "The girl was playful, cheerful and mischievous, completely opposite to our Uchiha friend here. And one day, Ryu confessed his love for the girl..." Ken paused again for a moment.
"Sighh I still remember that day when Ryu came to me reluctantly for some tips and advice about what to do. I happily helped him and told him some things that would surely make the girl accept his feelings." He sighed and said.
I looked at him with my eyebrow raised "I know that look hehe. I may not look like it but I have already conquered the psychology of love and romance." He added with a knowing smile and I nodded at him, not believing that crap.
"Well, maybe I will tell you later how I became a romance conqueror but let me finish this one first." He said and continued what he wanted to talk about. "I did give him some advice that day and guess what? The girl accepted his feelings!" He said with a small smile for a moment. "But with a condition." He added with a frown next with his finger raised.
"What condition?" I asked with my eyes narrowed.
"The girl made a condition that Ryu should first get rid of his broody and emo behaviour to become more cheerful because that was what her type of men, for the men to be like herself. Like smiling more, become better socially, more cheerful and playful." He said with an ominous aura surrounding him.
"Then?" I asked eager to know the remaining part.
This is getting creepy.
I didn't know that gossiping was this fun, or maybe my sense of fun got disoriented after coming to this ass world.
"Then Ryu accepted her condition readily without much thought. And from this moment here started their life as a couple, so listen carefully." He again paused for a moment and continued. "They were with each other all the time, eating, studying, going out on dates, you know the usual things couples do and shit like that but..."
"But?" I asked while narrowing my eyes.
"Last year, his girlfriend died." He suddenly dropped the bomb of the story which made my eyes go wide for a moment and I looked at Ryu with pity.
"How?!" I asked in bewilderment with my arms crossed.
"It was because of an illness she had that she never told Ryu until the last moment." He said with a sad smile.
I looked at Ryu while thinking that I had seen this kind of crap only in some tragic Korean romance dramas and anime Miller watched.
'What was it called again? I want to eat your stomach? Or was it Pancreas or some shit,' I thought.
Ken brought back my attention. "We haven't seen Ryu for quite a while after that day and when he came back, he was just like that. His smile never disappeared and he started acting flamboyantly all the time."
"Tough shit." I said.
"Tough shit." Ken nodded.
The class ended.
Then Ken suddenly turned and looked at two girls speaking with each other.
"Look right there! that's the best looking ass that girl possessed in this school." Ken exclaimed, his demeanor becoming more perverted by the second.
"Who?" I raised an eyebrow.
"That one over there!" Ken pointed at two beautiful girls, one of them looking slightly more... mature.
*POOOF!*
"Right?!!" Jiraiya suddenly appeared beside us with a puff of smoke.
"I mean, I don't understand how gays exist. Lesbians maybe but, come on guys! They probably haven't seen... This!" Ken exaggerated as he licked his lips.
"She looks like she from the land of keys." Jiraiya said as he analysed.
'Pretty sure these two probably talked about this topic a thousand times, every time with new theories.' I thought with a deadpan.
"You think she is lesbian?!" Ken asked in surprise.
"Not like actually but maybe she from the land of keys." Jiraiya said.
"Well I heard women from there are all lesbians or something." Ken said.
"Yea, though that girl is lesbian." Jiraiya pointed at the mature looking girl.
"Lesssss be honest, I don't care!" Ken glanced at Jiraiya who glanced back lewedly.
"She is lucky I am already a fiancé to a girl." Ken said with a sigh.
"She lucky I am not... happily married or something." Jiraiya replied.
"Wanna try your luck Jiraiya?" Ken suggested.
"Hmmm, why not?! I have already tried half the school, another one won't hurt." Jiraiya exclaimed and hiding his perverted expression, he stepped towards the girl.
.
"You guys disgust me." I told Ken who just said thank you in response.
We then looked at Jiraiya who was trying to rizz up the girl.
They are chatting.
Ohh, the girl smiled.
Ohhh, the girl winked back.
Ohhhh, did she agree?
Jiraiya came back.
"What happened?!" Ken quickly asked excitedly.
Jiraiya smiled at Ken like a sage and put a hand on his shoulder. "Life... isn't all about women little Ken."
"... ×4
"This world has so much to offer than just getting girls." Jiraiya continued.
"What did she say?" Ken asked with a deadpan.
"So many meaningless distractions out there. He said, she said, they said... we gotta focus on things that matter in life!" Jiraiya said with eyes closed.
"Did you tell her something funny? Those girls laughing their ass off bro." Ken said as he looked at the girls giving disgusting glares at Jiraiya.
"Nature is full of beaut–"
"He got rejected." Yuji suddenly interrupted.
"Aghhhh!" Jiraiya suddenly put a hand on his heart as if he was in great pain.
"Mhhehehee, so you got rejected huh," Ken smiled mischievously.
"Fucking lesbians! It ain't my fault they are freaks!" Jiraiya shouted with unshed tears in his eyes.
"Yeah yeah. It ain't your fault for this time. I heard those girls, especially the bigger looking one went through somethings, that's why she is like that." Ken said and I raised an eyebrow.
"Like what?" I asked.
"You interested Garou? I thought their type made you repulsive and not interested." Ken asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I do think they are repulsive. Only animals do that shit. Are we animals? Though, I also think it's a psychological thing caused by a trauma, that's why their kind is like that. Or maybe they watch too much porn so their interests change because of boredom." I replied with a wave of my hand.
"Calm your ass down, but to be honest, that ain't wrong... mostly. That girl participated in the first shinobi world war sometime ago." Ken said with narrowed eyes.
"Hoo... then?" I asked.
"Garou, she is Kunoichi, what do you think most of their missions are about?" Ken looked at me.
"Intelligence gathering?" I replied with narrowed eyes as I knew where this was going.
"Exactly, but how do they do it? That's the important part. Honey traps. That girl you see, probably got raped by many peopl–"
"Okay I understand, damn!" I interrupted and didn't let him finish.
Fucking ninjas.
"Do clan Kunoichis gather intelligence the same way?" I asked with gritted teeth.
"No, it's just a civilian thing." Of fucking course!
He would have went Monster mode instantly on the Senjew clan if it was a case for them too. Since Tsunade is his, then if one follicle of her hair get damaged, he will absolutely fuck over the world, no hesitation! Do or die! No plans.
"Makes me sick! That girl is just a fucking child!" I gritted my teeth.
Yuji gave me a side glance as he thought about what I said 'A child? Children don't exist in this world. I wish everybody thought the same as you Garou.'
"I know, right?! War is never good." Ken said, "Okay now, enough sad stories. Who else do you want to know?" He asked and I pointed at the Hyuga who was sitting in the front.
"The fate boy. He is obsessed with fate and how fate fucked hi–" Then he started to talk about some fate and destiny bullshit that I didn't give a crap about.
And like this, he started to tell me who the students were for the rest of our classes, with the class subjects being all about maths and things that made me fall asleep instantly.
------------
2 Hours Later/
It was lunch time and I bought some ramen to eat under the shade of a tree with Yuji, Satoshi, and Ken who had their own food to eat.
*Munch Munch Munch*
"Are those... dumplings?" Ken looked at Satoshi who munched on a big amount of dumplings.
*Munch Munch Munch*
"They look like just how I like it." Ken continued.
*Munch Munch Munch*
"They must taste really good."
*Munch Munch Munch*
"I don't even remember the last time I tasted some dumplings."
*Munch Munch Munch*
"Do dumplings still have that sweetness? Do dumplings make you dream better at night? Do dumplings love you when you love them? Do dumplings cry?"
*Munch Munch Munch*
"Do dumpling–"
"Satoshiii!" Yuji interrupted Ken and called Satoshi who didn't give a fuck about Ken.
"Hmmm?" Satoshi looked at Yuji as if to say what.
"Share some dumplings with Ken." Yuji tiredly rubbed his forehead.
"Ohhh, but why?" Satoshi asked, confused.
"Because look at Ken." And Satoshi looked only to see Ken giving him puppy eyes which made him disgusted, but for another reason.
"Miso Ramen always takes my food!" Satoshi murmured to himself with shadows hiding his face, not knowing if this is a declaration of war or not.
Satoshi reluctantly gave a dumpling to Ken who lit up immediately.
"Thanks man! I have a food magazine at home and I will give it to you later." Ken said excitedly as he ate dumpling with eyes closed and snot coming down his nose.
'Did just Ken say to give Satoshi's equivalent of porn which is just... food?' I thought in bewilderment and I remembered the idea I always had in mind but more improvised than what Miller had in mind.
I turned to look at Satoshi who was gulping down dumplings and giving Satoshi glares. "Hey Satoshi, Ken told me that your father is the clan head, right?" I asked Satoshi.
He looked at me for a second. "Yes Daifuku-san, Miso Ramen is right." He said and we sweat dropped at him.
'This dude really lives in the realm of food. He really thinks that we are food. Well, except Yuji, everybody else is food for him.' I thought.
"I have some business regarding some secret recipes that are only special to the Hatake clan that I plan to share with your clan. Is your father at home today? Because I want to have a meeting with him." I asked him.
My clan's money is running out and it won't be enough for me to build a dojo and fund it, so a passive income is needed. And what's better than the food industry which I could take advantage of by introducing some modern dishes to this world.
With my Monster brain I could remember every last detail of anything if I focused hard enough. Some food recipes and all those Instagram reels Miller watched that were related to food can be recreated here.
Satoshi immediately smiled widely with dumplings visible in his mouth. "New food?" He said and I rubbed my forehead tiredly.
"Yes. Do you want new delicious food?" I asked in a tone to avoid sounding like some shady guy who sells questionable things to kids.
"Yes Daifuku-san, I will tell my daddy quickly when I go back." He said cheerfully and I nodded at him and looked at the other two who were busy eating their stuff without caring too much about our conversation.
Then I started to eat my own stuff and stood up with them after some time to leave for the remaining classes.
---------
2 Hours Later/
I was standing at the entrance gate of the academy waiting for Tsunade.
*Step step step step.*
I turned to look at where the sound of footsteps was coming from, only to see that she finally came out of the academy with the addition of two others.
Tsunade immediately got closer to me. "Ahh, sorry Garou for being late. Did you wait for long?" She asked with some concern while putting her hair behind her ear.
"No, I just came out of the academy moments ago."
"Hello. Can you remove your shirt... please?" Orochimaru greeted and then whispered his question only he could hear calmly while looking up at me.
'I heard that.' I thought as I took a small step backwards.
"Sup!" Jiraiya just raised his hand and greeted, his other hand in his pocket.
I just nodded at them, not really interested in a conversation right now because of how busy my mind is trying to get ready for every possible scenario with Mito.
"Will they come with us too, Tsunade?" I not directly tried to shoo them away.
"Hey! Don't just ignore us muscle freak! And yes we will com–"
*Bam!*
"AGHHH!"
"Shut up! And no you won't come with us. Me and Garou have some business together, so you two can go home without me today, okay?" She said as she punched Jiraiya at the back of his head which made his eyes bulge out and spit out saliva.
"Okay." Orochimaru said calmly.
"No! I will come with you–"
*Bam!*
And Jiraiya passed out on the ground after that punch from Tsunade. Orochimaru was already leaving to somewhere while looking back at me every two steps and start to murmur to himself, which slightly made me curious about where he actually lived.
But for now, let's meet Mito.
The End
[ I thank SirRickyOfTheRolls who may not see this yet cuz he still early, for introducing me to a new word and enriching my racist vocabulary... Senjews...
