Chapter 355: Tsunade: Need More Money
Ninja School Teacher: Teaching Makes Me Stronger, Chapter 273: Tsunade: It's Gonna Cost Extra. "Still no success. Maybe I really have no talent for space-time jutsu." On the eleventh day after obtaining the Flying Thunder God, Mu Yue looked at his status panel and sighed softly.
He had already tried his best to train. During these ten days, he hadn't studied sealing techniques, nor developed breathing methods, nor immersed himself in learning the Flying Thunder God. He even used Shadow Clones, but after ten days of effort, he still couldn't see a single point of proficiency.
"Try for another month. If it doesn't work, I'll have to give up." Mu Yue prepared to continue training according to his original plan.
In the coming month, he would still practice the Flying Thunder God, but not exclusively like he did in the first ten days. The schedule would be roughly equally focused on sealing techniques and the Flying Thunder God, followed by medical knowledge and then breathing methods. If after another month the Flying Thunder God still didn't show any proficiency, Mu Yue would temporarily give up on it.
Although Mu Yue was only nineteen and had a long life ahead, his disciples would be in danger soon. He had to develop as quickly as possible. He couldn't afford to stubbornly persist with the Flying Thunder God when no proficiency was appearing.
In the morning, Mu Yue taught his disciples as usual; in the afternoon, he went to the Ninja Academy to give classes.
Although he already knew quite a few jutsu, one can never have too many jutsu. Moreover, obtaining them repeatedly could increase proficiency.
【Completed one large class lecture】
【Evaluation: A】
【Reward obtained: Earth Release: Hiding in Rock Technique, Water Release: Sky Tear】
Mu Yue now basically didn't specifically farm for B-rank evaluations to get chakra, because if he wanted to farm chakra, taking his disciples out on missions was faster.
After saying goodbye to the students, Mu Yue went to his office to put things away.
Now Mu Yue had a separate vice principal's office, no longer sharing one with other teachers as before.
Actually, Mu Yue didn't care much about such things. For him, it didn't matter where he worked, as it didn't affect his reward farming. However, having a vice principal nearby might make ordinary teachers uncomfortable. Considering that, Mu Yue moved out.
"Mu Yue... Principal." Ueda Aya and others who happened to be passing by subconsciously wanted to greet Mu Yue. Midway through their greeting, they suddenly remembered that Mu Yue was now the vice principal, so they stopped and corrected themselves.
"Teacher Ueda, Teacher Ikeya, you just got out of class, right? The Third Hokage is the principal. I'm just the vice principal. You can address me as before." Mu Yue smiled and nodded in response.
Compared to the title of principal, Mu Yue still preferred "teacher." After all, whenever "principal" was mentioned, he thought of a certain principal who said "the advantage is mine."
"Mm, Teacher Mu Yue, I just finished my ninjutsu class." Ueda Aya saw the gentle smile on Mu Yue's face and relaxed inwardly, smiling as she spoke.
Because they were acquaintances, Mu Yue chatted a bit before returning to the office to put things away.
"He gets promoted faster than anyone, yet you just can't feel jealous at all." Looking at Mu Yue's departing back, Ikeya Isamu sighed.
A teacher who had been at the Ninja Academy for less than two years had risen to the unprecedented position of vice principal. If it were anyone else, Ikeya Isamu would have been extremely envious, but for Mu Yue, he couldn't muster any jealousy.
Because he really had no reason to be jealous. Mu Yue's contributions deserved the position. He had led an unprecedentedly powerful class, pioneered holiday special training and graduation internships, all of which achieved great results.
It wasn't just his achievements; Mu Yue's character also made it impossible to be jealous. Although his promotion was like a rocket and his strength far surpassed theirs, Mu Yue's attitude toward them hadn't changed at all. He never looked down on them or anything.
"After all, he's Teacher Mu Yue." Ueda Aya sighed softly.
It was impossible for her not to have some thoughts about a colleague as handsome and gentle as Mu Yue. But Mu Yue seemed so perfect that it made her feel inferior and afraid to approach.
After Mu Yue became vice principal, she completely gave up any thoughts. The gap was too large; they probably wouldn't even have common topics to chat about.
After putting his things away, Mu Yue bought groceries and went to Tsunade's house.
Tsunade, in her slacker state, was willing to help him look after his disciples. It wasn't a problem for Mu Yue to cook a few dishes in return.
Because Mu Yue's cooking was delicious, when Mu Yue came over, Rin Nohara would also stay to bum a meal.
"Why are today's dishes so plain? Just one stir-fried pepper with meat?" Tsunade, who loved meat and alcohol, voiced her opinion.
"We need to switch things up once in a while. If you really want meat, Tsunade, you can buy some cooked food outside." Mu Yue smiled as he explained.
The truth was that Mu Yue wanted to eat vegetarian today, but of course he couldn't say that so directly.
"Forget it then. But don't you dare steal my meat. A student snatching a teacher's dish is a big no-no." Tsunade chose to use chakra to enhance her arm and quickly grabbed the meat slices into her bowl.
For Tsunade, Mu Yue's meat dishes ranked above his vegetable dishes, and Mu Yue's cooking surpassed any food outside. She would rather eat Mu Yue's vegetable dishes than buy meat outside.
When the spicy and tasty meat slices entered her mouth, Tsunade couldn't help but show a blissful smile. Her two greatest pleasures now were eating Mu Yue's cooking and going to the casino.
However, Tsunade couldn't handle spicy food well. After eating several meat slices mixed with rice, she had to stick out her tongue to cool down.
"Lady Tsunade, water." Shizune skillfully handed a cup of cold water to Tsunade.
After gulping it down, Tsunade gave Shizune a thumbs-up and continued chowing down.
"Mu Yue, can't you put more meat in this stir-fried pepper? I'll pay for the meat, okay?" After eating for a while, Tsunade noticed that only peppers were left in the dish and complained.
"There's already a lot. Any more and it wouldn't taste the same." Shizune replied. Since Mu Yue had explained many times, she had memorized it.

Muyue nodded, showing an approving expression.
"Shizune, you've learned bad habits from Muyue—you actually dare to anger me." Tsunade, disregarding martial virtue, reached out with both hands and pinched Shizune's little cheeks.
"Mmm... Rin, save me." Shizune looked at Nohara Rin with pleading eyes.
Nohara Rin returned an "I can't help" look and continued eating.
After dinner, Nohara Rin went home, and Muyue told Tsunade about his recent development insights.
"Actually, I have a ninjutsu here that is similar to your idea, but you can't learn it, and this ninjutsu isn't very easy to use." Seeing that Muyue had learned enough, Tsunade told Muyue about the existence of the Yin Seal.
The Yin Seal was a ninjutsu passed down from her grandmother Mito, allowing the storage of a large amount of chakra within the body.
But as Jiraiya said, performing sealing techniques inside the body is a delicate task and very hard to practice. The sudden surge of a large amount of chakra also easily causes chaos in the chakra inside the body.
Of course, that doesn't mean the Yin Seal is bad. In fact, Tsunade thinks the Yin Seal is an incompletely developed ninjutsu. She originally had some ideas for further development, but now she doesn't have the mood to work on it.
"If you can solve all these difficulties, then you should be able to obtain the ninjutsu you want." Tsunade told Muyue all the shortcomings of the Yin Seal.
Having said that, Tsunade directly took out the scroll recording the Yin Seal and handed it to Muyue.
"Thank you, Tsunade-sama." Muyue unceremoniously accepted the scroll and thanked her.
Although he couldn't practice the Yin Seal, by analogizing from one instance he should be able to save a lot of time. After all, his talent in sealing techniques was indeed quite good. In terms of learning speed for sealing techniques alone, he was faster than Kushina.
"Tomorrow I'll definitely pick a good chicken to make white cut chicken." Muyue indicated that tomorrow he would treat her to something good.
"One chicken? The Yin Seal is an S-rank ninjutsu, an S-rank ninjutsu!" Tsunade crossed her arms and emphasized the rank of the Yin Seal.
Whether it's easy to use or not is one thing, but the Yin Seal is indeed an S-rank ninjutsu.
Muyue understood—he had to increase the payment. So he changed his words and said he would prepare an all-meat feast for Tsunade tomorrow. Only then did Tsunade show a satisfied expression.
"If, after unsealing the seal, the chakra immediately executes a certain ninjutsu, wouldn't that solve the problem of chakra chaos?" Then Muyue proposed an idea.
"For example, automatically using medical ninjutsu, so that while fighting, the body automatically heals itself."
Tsunade looked at Muyue with astonishment—this actually coincided with her previous idea, and she had not told anyone about it.
"One could even maintain a specific output in daily life to keep the body in a ninjutsu state, gaining some effects of medical ninjutsu." Muyue continued to describe the effects of the Hundred Healings Technique.
Tsunade was even more surprised. Muyue's idea was actually more complete than hers.
"Could he also be a genius in this area?" Tsunade couldn't help thinking to herself.
"Your idea is very good. If it can be realized, the Yin Seal will play a great role." Tsunade nodded in affirmation.
Muyue kept smiling—this idea was of course good, because this was the Hundred Healings Technique that Tsunade herself would develop in the future.
He hoped that Tsunade could develop the Hundred Healings Technique ahead of time. That way, Muyue could not only learn from his experience, but also conveniently discuss the ninjutsu he was developing with Tsunade during the development process, as the two were essentially very close.
"It should be about right. Let's give it a try." Teacher Chen patted Might Gai's body and said.
"Yeah." Might Gai nodded solemnly, began to adjust his breathing, and pushed his breath to the utmost to strengthen his body.
"Is it going to happen again?" Shiranui Genma and Ebisu, seeing this, instinctively moved back a little distance and then started to watch.
After the Chunin Exam ended, Might Gai first underwent Breath Control Constant training at Muyue's place. After returning to Teacher Chen's side, he had basically been practicing the Leaf Dragon God continuously, but had never really succeeded.
The Leaf Dragon God placed very high demands on the body. Might Gai had used it successfully only by forcibly breaking through the Fourth Gate during the Chunin Exam. But in daily training, he definitely couldn't do that, otherwise practicing once would land him in the hospital—that would be too costly.
So Might Gai had been strengthening his body all along, trying to use the Leaf Dragon God in a state of three Gates plus full concentration. The Eight Gates did not provide a fixed boost; rather, the stronger the body, the more effective the Eight Gates.
"Eight Gates: Opening Gate, open! Rest Gate, open! Life Gate, open!" Might Gai glared fiercely ahead and instantly opened the three Gates.
Three Gates was currently Might Gai's limit. To open the Fourth Gate, he would have to forcibly charge it, which would cause severe injury to his body.
After opening the three Gates, Might Gai's aura surged violently, and the surrounding leaves were blown back a bit by this aura.
Might Gai mobilized a large amount of chakra within his body to strengthen it, and when his aura reached its peak, he moved.
"Leaf Dragon God!"
Might Gai suddenly started spinning, and it got faster and faster over time. A large amount of chakra also burst out, gradually forming a long azure dragon.
The appearance of the long dragon generated a huge suction force, pulling in everything near it and then tearing it apart.
Seeing large trees being shredded, Ebisu and Shiranui Genma retreated a little further back.
"Did it succeed? It feels really strong!" Shiranui Genma said with narrowed eyes.
"It should be. Before, it would just ramble around and then dissipate, and the power was weaker than this." Ebisu analyzed while shielding himself from the dust.
The reason they had to retreat was because Might Guy's earlier failure nearly affected them. Fortunately, Teacher Chen acted quickly, or they would have gotten the same treatment as Kakashi in the finals.
"It's starting to take shape." Teacher Chen nodded with a slight smile.
Might Guy was his most satisfactory disciple—talented and diligent. He no longer had to worry about his taijutsu lineage dying out.
"Leaf Dragon God!"
Watching Might Guy succeed, Teacher Chen also burst out chakra and used the Leaf Dragon God, and an even thicker giant dragon appeared.
As soon as the thick giant dragon appeared, it charged toward Might Guy, who rammed into it without a moment's hesitation.
Boom!!
The collision of the two dragons kicked up a massive storm. The howling gale crushed the surrounding trees one after another. Seeing this, Ebisu and Shiranui Genma wisely retreated a bit further.
"The gap between people is really huge." Shiranui Genma felt a bit nostalgic for his school days.
Back then, in the grade-level practical exams, he could still exchange a move or two with Might Guy. Now, even the aftermath of Might Guy's battle could potentially injure him.
"This isn't bad, is it?" Ebisu said as he gathered chakra on his feet.
He had long since lost any desire to compete with Might Guy, instead feeling happy to have a strong teammate and an excellent teacher.
"Of course. This is Guy—too much security." Shiranui Genma replied with a smile.
With Might Guy around, Shiranui Genma had never felt nervous during missions.
As the two were talking, the situation quickly changed.
Boom!
In the end, Teacher Chen was called the strongest taijutsu ninja of Konoha. The smaller green dragon was soon shattered, and Might Guy was sent flying backward and slammed into the ground.
"As expected of Teacher Chen! What incredible power." Might Guy did a carp kip and jumped up, giving Teacher Chen a thumbs-up.
"This kick has thirty years of training behind it. But with your talent, after another ten years of practice, you should be about on par with me." Teacher Chen canceled the Leaf Dragon God and said with a smile.
"If that kid had even half your drive, that would be great." Thinking of his other disciple, Teacher Chen shook his head.
Might Guy, not knowing who Teacher Chen was talking about, scratched his head.
But he soon stopped thinking about it, because his mind was now only on having another big fight with Kakashi.
Although he still couldn't normally open the Fourth Gate, his current strength was different from during the Chūnin Exams. It might not be weaker than the state of forcibly opening the Fourth Gate.
Not in great form; despite my efforts, I only managed to write 4k characters.
Pushing a friend's book, title: *I'm a Villain, Not a Demon*

"I'm not extreme at all, and I never toy with human nature—I'm just a small-time villain, not a demon who bewitches people."
