The classroom was a hubbub of chatter, with the sound of discussion buzzing into a single drone.
As for the center of the conversation, for the girls, it was naturally Kakashi Hatake—son of the Konohas White Fang.
This identity was already eye-catching enough, but combined with that long silver-white hair and black mask, the mysterious and cold aura was perfectly balanced, drawing frequent side-glances from the young girls.
For the boys, the focus naturally fell on Rin Nohara.
No! To be precise, it was the Nohara siblings.
Rin Nohara goes without saying; her short brown hair and large dark brown eyes were filled with warmth, and her gentle smile was like a spring breeze.
How could the boys resist such a temperament?
But the one sitting beside her—Nohara Moku—was the presence that truly made it impossible to look away.
How to describe it? Those eyes, that silhouette, that clear voice—no matter how you looked at him, he exuded an androgynous beauty.
At first glance, eight out of ten people would mistake him for a handsome young girl.
But it was precisely this unique temperament, caught between boy and girl, that formed an extreme contrast with his sister's gentle and quiet Yamato Nadeshiko style.
With two "flavors" right before them, the level of attention naturally doubled.
Normally, being mistaken for the wrong gender isn't something anyone would be happy about.
Even if they didn't start a fight, they'd at least frown.
But Nohara Moku didn't think so.
He was a reincarnator.
Having been "warmly embraced" by a truck in a place called Earth, he arrived in the Naruto world.
Initially, he was quite excited—transmigration! A cheat! Reaching the pinnacle of life!
But after understanding the situation, his mental state completely collapsed.
The Nohara lineage had no Bloodline Limit and no special constitution.
Even worse, among his batch of classmates was one named Kakashi Hatake.
Even thinking with his toes, he knew what awaited them next—the Third Shinobi World War.
He was emo for three whole days.
Fortunately, on the day of the opening ceremony, the system finally went online—the Favorability System, which issues rewards based on others' favorability toward him.
At that time, Nohara Moku was so excited he almost ascended to heaven on the spot.
But his joy didn't last long before he discovered something.
The reward content... was the freaking Hextech Star-up Mechanism.
System, have you played too much Teamfight Tactics or lost your mind playing Battle of Golden Spatula?
But then again, his androgynous appearance turned out to be an unexpected joy.
Both males and females found it novel, and favorability soared, with system prompts almost flooding the screen—
[Obtained +1 Favorability from a passerby]
[Obtained +1 Favorability from a passerby]
[Obtained +1 Favorability from a passerby]
...
[Obtained: Small increase in Chakra capacity]
[Obtained: Small amount of currency]
[Obtained: Small increase in Chakra capacity]
Nohara Moku gave himself a thumbs-up in his heart: "How could anyone not get the charm of a tomboy?"
He happily pulled up the system panel, then sighed again.
"It's just a pity that it doesn't give much... but they're just passersby; those who know, know. Could they really give anything rare?"
Pausing, he glanced at his sister, who was chatting and laughing with classmates, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"But fortunately, Sis is quite reliable."

"Knock, knock, knock!"
The middle-aged Ninja on the podium tapped the blackboard, and the noisy classroom fell silent instantly, as if the mute button had been pressed.
"My name is Kumo Yuto, and I will be your teacher for the next six years."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the young faces below.
"To the new students, I don't know you, and likewise, you don't know me. So, I'll start with an introduction. I like Ichiraku Ramen on the streets of Konoha with double bamboo shoots, I hate sweets, and my dream is to become a Jonin. Yes, that's it."
He then pointed to a student in a green jumpsuit near the door.
"Now, everyone, please come to the front for introductions. We'll start with you!"
Having said that, he stepped aside and vacated the spot.
The boy in green stood up abruptly, strode to the front of the podium, and stood straight.
"My name is Guy! Might Guy!" His voice was as loud as someone shouting slogans on a sports field. "I like morning training where I sweat alongside my father, and I hate wasting a single second of my youth! My dream is to prove that even if I only know Taijutsu, I can still become a great Ninja!"
He then gave a thumbs-up and grinned, his white teeth seemingly flashing in the classroom.
But as soon as he finished, a wave of discussion broke out in the classroom.
"Eh? He said his dream is to prove he can become a Ninja with only Taijutsu? Does that mean he can't use Ninjutsu?"
"Can someone who can't use Ninjutsu even be called a Ninja?"
...
Whispers rippled through the room like waves.
Some curled their lips, some whispered to each other, and others couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Might Guy stood on the stage, his thumb still raised, but his smile had frozen slightly.
Just then—
"Clap, clap, clap!"
Crisp applause rang out abruptly, interrupting the discussions.
Everyone looked toward the source.
Nohara Moku leaned against the back of his chair, his hands still clapping unhurriedly, a sincere smile on his face.
"I think Guy's dream is great."
His tone was casual, as if mentioning the weather.
Whether it was because of Nohara Moku's certainty or because the students didn't want to ruin their image in front of someone they liked, the surrounding whispers gradually died down.
Might Guy was stunned for a moment, then his smile bloomed once more, even brighter than before.
[Obtained +1 Favorability from Might Guy]

[Obtained: Junior Taijutsu Mastery x1]
Seeing this, Kumo Yuto on the stage also spoke up at the right time:
"Good! Very spirited!"
He waved his hand to signal Guy to return and nodded to the next student.
"Next!"
The students stood up one after another and walked to the front.
After a few more students finished their introductions, it was finally Kakashi's turn.
Just then, the classroom door was pushed open, and a person with spiky hair, wearing goggles, and with the Uchiha fan emblem on his back entered.
It was Uchiha Obito.
He completely ignored Kumo Yuto's annoyed look, walked straight onto the podium, and shouted.
"My name is Uchiha Obito. My favorite foods are Red Bean Cakes and Tri-color Dango, my least favorite food is Saury, and my dream is... my dream is..."
Mid-sentence, Obito spotted Rin among the students—she was the one who had helped him, who was late for the opening ceremony, pick up his enrollment documents. As his gaze shifted slightly, he saw Nohara Moku with his neat short hair sitting next to Rin. Obito was instantly captivated by the two of them!
"Lo... Love!"
In that moment, Obito felt as if he had found true love!
Wait, can it be called true love if you like two people?
It can, right?
