From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

"I've heard of you, the genius among this batch of graduates, just like Neji."

Lee looked at Sasuke and held out his hand, shaking it tightly.

"But I want to prove... that genius can be defeated as long as you put in absolute effort."

As the words fell, his teeth flashed.

Tiantian, who was standing by, held his forehead with one hand but did not pull it back.

Geniuses are creatures that were born to defeat ordinary people. If they can be defeated through hard work, then what is the point of talent?
What's more, although he has been working very hard, neither the strength of his physical skills nor his reaction speed have reached the level of awakening domineering.

And facing the challenge, Sasuke didn't care too much.

Although he has not awakened his domineering aura nor opened his eyes, not everyone can commit fraud, even if the other person is one school year older than him.

Ningji, who had been looking at the two teachers, suddenly said, "Little Lee is also a genius. If you are careless, both you and I will suffer or...lose."

"In terms of Haki, Mr. Kai said that he has great potential. In terms of Taijutsu, he is undoubtedly a genius. As for hard work... every genius works hard. A genius who doesn't work hard will not choose to become a ninja."

Sasuke's eyes narrowed slightly at Neji's words.

He may not care about Rock Lee, but it’s different for Neji.

His elder brother had mentioned the issue of the main branch of the Hyuga clan. After the curse was lifted by the master, the Byakugan of the branch Hyuga clan no longer had its only weakness.

The elder brother did not tell us what the weakness of the branch family was in the past, but he did say that by combining the Observation Haki with the Byakugan, the difficulty of hitting the target with an attack would be greatly increased.

The genius in front of him from the previous class of the Ninja School has already begun to awaken his domineering power.

"Watch the teacher's duel carefully."

Neji reminded a few people.

At this time, in the center of the training ground, Might Guy and Uchiha Obito also formed the seal of opposition.

The next moment after forming the seal, Might Guy immediately opened the opening, resting and life gates of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu.

The chakra in the body is running wild, and green energy covers the entire surface of the body.

Obito scratched his head and said, "Can you not be so serious, Kai? There are so many children watching us."

The six little ghosts were stunned.

Naruto said in a deep voice: "The Eight Gates Ninjutsu is a forbidden technique of physical skills. If you want to practice this forbidden technique, you must break the limits of the human body again and again during practice."

Neji glanced at Naruto.

"Remove the inherent limitations of the body, allowing the chakra to burst out with power that it never had before. The first gate removes the limitations of the brain's opening door to achieve perfect control of the body."

"The second gate is the rest gate, which removes the body's restrictions on fatigue and squeezes the body's energy to cope with the consumption of the body when opening the gate."

"But facing the Uchiha... the most important thing is the third gate of life, which further increases the attack and speed. At the same time, the runaway chakra will form green energy on the body surface. This can make illusions ineffective."

Uchiha Sasuke's eyes were solemn.

He could understand why the illusion was ineffective.

According to the knowledge taught in ninja schools, the basic way to break illusions is to stagnate the chakra in one's body.

Looking at the senior ninja Might Guy, his chakra is currently running wild. Even the illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan is still based on chakra.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the ground of the training ground exploded instantly, and a figure rushed towards Uchiha Obito.

However, even in the face of such an attack, Obito still did not take any action.

This caused Sakura and Tenten to exclaim.

The next moment, the fist passed directly over Obito's figure, missed, and then returned instantly to attack again.

At the extreme speed, Might Guy's attack formed a dense and staggered pattern with Uchiha Obito as the center.

However, after dozens of attacks, no damage was caused.

Uchiha Sasuke said: "My brother has mentioned the space-time eye technique of the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he didn't tell me the principle."

Neji explained: "Ninja battles are never about constant strength or weakness. Intelligence plays a very important role in winning or losing in battles, so intelligence such as secret techniques and blood inheritance is particularly important."

Naruto on the side said solemnly: "If you can't hit it all the time, then even if you don't move, you can guarantee that you will not be defeated, but this is obviously impossible. What I think of is Haki."

"Yes."

Neji nodded: "Haki can restrain chakra, and is fundamentally the nemesis of all techniques. But just like water and fire, water can extinguish fire, but when fire reaches a certain level, it can also evaporate water."

As soon as he finished speaking, Might Guy's hands were already covered with a layer of black domineering aura.

He threw a punch that went straight through Obito's abdomen.

However, this time, Obito was not as relaxed as before.

"You have secretly made progress again!"

Even though he had actively reserved a part of his entity in the different space, the surge of his domineering aura blocked his passiveness, and the resulting attack still caused damage to the surrounding area where his abdomen was pierced.

"Hehe! Youth doesn't allow for slacking off!"

Might Guy swung his punch, but this time he was countered by Obito with a punch as well.

The collision of Armament Haki caused the two to retreat at the same time.

"I haven't slacked off in my training either, Kai. If I get a chance this time, I will definitely take revenge for your kick."

As soon as he finished speaking, Obito's arm suddenly thrust forward, and his entire forearm turned into a sharp branch and suddenly exploded.

"Bang bang bang..."

Covered in Armament Haki, it was like steel hitting the surface of his body. Kai blocked with his arms and jumped back.

The next moment, he exerted force suddenly with his feet.

Three-door status: shave!
"boom!"

The entire training ground began to shake, and the dust that was raised formed waves, forcing the six little kids who were watching the game to steady themselves immediately to avoid being knocked over.

"What kind of power is this!"

Sakura originally wanted to hug Sasuke, but Lee grabbed her hand first.

For a moment, the personality roared wildly.

"Are you okay, Sakura?"

"Ah? Thank you!"

[Damn it! I could have hugged Sasuke-kun! ]

On the side, Tenten was grabbed by Ningji.

Naruto was also surprised at Kai's explosive power. He never thought that physical skills could reach this level.

He's just a jonin and he's so strong, what about his dad?
As a shadow, how strong is he?

At this time, Obito did not choose to fight head-on, but instead took the initiative to move his entire upper body into a different space.

The moment the fist passed by, branches spread out and directly bound it.

At the same time, he opened a different space, wanting to pull it into it.

As long as they could pull it into the different space, the outcome of this duel would be decided.

However, he knew Might Guy, and the other party knew him as well. The moment his right arm was bound, Guy kicked it.

"boom!"

The two were separated by one blow.

Uchiha Obito rubbed his lower abdomen, and Might Guy also stopped.

The two made a seal of reconciliation.

This game is considered a draw.

"Don't fight?"

Sakura was a little confused: "Wouldn't it be impossible to decide the winner?"

Neji replied, "Of the Eight Gates of the Ninjutsu, Mr. Kai can open up to seven gates. The Eight Gates of Death, perhaps, can also be opened, but that is a power that can only be unleashed when protecting something that must be protected in one's heart."

Naruto followed up with, "When the Death Gate is opened, one can temporarily gain power that surpasses that of a Kage. But the price of opening it is life."

Sasuke also said in a deep voice: "The Mangekyō Sharingan's eye technique has not been fully utilized either, but this is just a sparring match between companions, not a life-and-death duel."

As he said this, Sasuke looked at Lee.

The Eight Gates Ninjutsu and the Mangekyō Sharingan.

It seemed to reflect the level of himself and the other party, but I don't know how many gates of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu this Xiao Li can open.

Is this... hard-working genius?
After a while, Obito and Might Guy came over arm in arm, chatting with each other.

"You have been holding back a lot without making any noise. I'm afraid that all seven gates can be opened at the cost of exhaustion, right?"

"Youth definitely requires unremitting efforts. Isn't your ability to recover the same? In the past, when I didn't have a breakthrough in my domineering power, I never showed it."

“Hahaha… that thing is not as good as the first generation, it just got some luck.”

"It's enough to achieve the goal. It's enough to show the children the direction of their future efforts."

……

The duel could be rock-paper-scissors, but in order to allow students to more intuitively feel the direction they are working towards, this duel was held.

At this time, Xiao Li also challenged Uchiha Sasuke again.

Obito reached out and held the two little brats' heads, just like Minato had held his and Kakashi's heads in the past.

"If you want to fight for love, you will have the chance soon. If you can meet my requirements, you can get my recommendation to participate in this year's Chunin Exam."

Might Guy behind him calculated the days and it seemed that it would be soon.

Sasuke stood up, looked at Xiao Li and said: "I will let you know what a true genius is."

Xiao Li made a fist with one hand: "I will also prove that genius can be defeated by hard work!"

Their eyes met, but Sakura at the back had her eyes shining. Even Obito, who was wearing half a mask, looked so cute in her eyes.

【Fight for love! Hahaha! 】

[If Jingye Pig knew this, would he go crazy with envy? ]

[Sasuke will fight for me! Hahahaha...]

Naruto on the side sighed, and suddenly felt that this new group that had just been divided into classes did not have much future no matter how he looked at it.

The title of genius has become a shackle. If it cannot be broken, the problems that accumulate inside will even have a counterproductive effect.

And if he is unable to awaken his domineering aura and open his eyes, Sasuke will probably face more doubts.

This will form a vicious cycle.

And another teammate is definitely a love-brained person!
"Hey……"

After sighing, Class 7 ended the first day of class division and the six kids dispersed and went home.

After returning home, Naruto first greeted the fox and turtle who were sleeping in the sun, and then asked, "Is Boss Isobu coming to visit today?"

Sanwei flicked his tail and said, "Your father asked me to come here. You will probably stay here permanently in the future."

The Nine-Tailed Fox beside him opened his eyes and said, "I'll make you get out when Minato comes back. You smell like fish."

Isoko shrank his head and said nothing.

You can still be angry at the beginning, but later you will be beaten up. It’s meaningless to be angry.

A good tortoise never fights with a fox.

Naruto frowned, then went to his room, found the latest issue of the New Era Newspaper of the Rain Country and started reading.

Only by understanding this world can you find your true inner will.

Learning to think is only a prerequisite. Only with a firm will and unremitting efforts can you become a figure recognized by everyone.

After a while, mother came back.

After asking her son what he wanted to eat, Kushina went into the kitchen.

As a fellow jonin who can borrow the Nine-Tails' chakra, Kushina is also one of Konoha's high-end combat forces.

In the past three years, cases of disappearances in the ninja world have occurred frequently. Although war conflicts have almost disappeared, caravans still want to be escorted by powerful ninjas.

There are also some ordinary tasks, such as blasting and crushing rocks, and protecting mining workers in remote areas, which all require the help of ninjas.

The ninjas of Konoha have begun to split up. After the war is over, the ninjas who rely purely on force no longer have so many missions to carry out.

Therefore, Konoha started the diversion system as early as three years ago, but currently the remuneration is still paid in the form of tasks.

Recently, the Hokage Building has been discussing new methods, such as paying salaries, but there are many details that need to be discussed one by one.

Two hours later, Minato Namikaze was not late today, but what came back was only a shadow clone.

Naruto, who had long been accustomed to and could understand, sighed: "Work hard, Dad."

Namikaze Minato smiled, then asked, "How did Obito take the test today? Bell?"

Naruto shook his head: "The bell test was brought up for explanation in the fifth year, how can it still be a bell test? The teacher didn't test it, so he just let us watch him fight with Might Guy Jonin."

"Kay?"

Kushina came out of the kitchen and said, "I remember they met during the Chunin Exams, right? Obito was really upset at that time. He choked on his lollipop while using the Great Fireball Technique and was defeated by a kick."

Namikaze Minato thought for a moment and said, "No one wins or loses?"

Naruto nodded.

After Kushina sat down, she said, "With the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu combined with Haki, and the Mangekyō Sharingan combined with Haki and Wood Release, it would be hard to tell who would win if we were to spar. However... it would be no problem to help you recognize yourselves."

As she spoke, Kushina thought of something: "By the way, which class was the Hyuga kid assigned to?"

Namikaze Minato replied: "Lin will lead them. Lin's observation Haki is growing very fast, and her past experiences can also guide the reconnaissance team in awakening their Haki."

Hearing this, Kushina looked at Naruto with a teasing look on her face: "I heard that girl really likes Naruto. Do you want your mother to take you to ask for help from the teacher tomorrow?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Naruto's face turned red.

Kushina simply slapped her son on the back and said, "Be brave, Naruto! If necessary, it's not impossible for your father to go talk to the Hiashi clan leader."

Now not only Naruto, but even Minato was a little frozen.
