Chapter 76: No Fighting in the Bathroom

"Conduct special training for students who are about to graduate and those who perform excellently..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and said, "I think you still underestimate your abilities, Muyue. How about this: on the basis of your special training plan, also advertise it to the genin who have already graduated this year. Those who are interested can join your special training plan."

After speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled at Muyue and asked, "Muyue, what do you think?"

"Since the Third Hokage approves of my abilities so much, I'll give it my best try." Muyue said respectfully.

Muyue didn't mind having too many students; he wished he could teach hundreds of students a day.

According to Muyue's inference, the number of students during a lecture would also affect the rewards for teaching, so when he taught at the Ninja Academy, he got teaching rewards.

But when he taught Obito and the others, the number of students didn't meet the standard, so he got no teaching rewards.

If he gathered all the fourth-year students, plus outstanding students from other classes and some graduated genin, it wouldn't be a problem to scrape together over three hundred people.

Muyue wanted to know if teaching more than two hundred people at once would yield better rewards.

"Muyue, if you do this special training well, and improve the strength of the students and genin, you won't have to wait until the end of the year. Once the training is over, you can be promoted to Special Jonin." Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a chuckle.

If Muyue could keep reproducing the teaching results of Class 1 Year 1 like that, forget Special Jonin—Sarutobi Hiruzen could even replace him as the head of the Teacher Corps with Muyue.

But if it really came to that, he would have to have a good talk with his old friend Danzo about Muyue's identity.

A teacher at the Ninja Academy could be a member of Root, but the head of the Teacher Corps could not be a member of Root.

"I will notify the Ninja Academy to cooperate with your work. This matter will be led by you." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

Muyue expressed his gratitude respectfully, then walked to the backyard to take Asuma away to begin that weekend's training.

"Muyue-sensei, are you really going to do special training?" Asuma asked curiously.

He had happened to overhear their conversation just now.

"Since the Third Hokage trusts me so much, I naturally can't let him down." Muyue said with a smile.

"I think the old man just wants to use you as free labor. An entire grade of students, plus graduated genin—teaching so many people at once must be exhausting." Asuma said, standing up for Muyue.

"And he didn't even mention how the pay would be calculated during the special training. If it ends up being the same as a normal period, Muyue-sensei, you'll be getting the short end of the stick."

Hearing Asuma's words, Muyue thought to himself that if Asuma were also a disciple, his trustworthiness would probably be quite high, since he was already starting to speak up for Muyue against Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"I don't become a teacher to make money. I just hope the students can improve." Muyue replied with a smile.

If any other teacher said that, Asuma would scoff and think the person was being fake.

But when Muyue said it, Asuma felt it was only natural.

If it were just for money, Muyue could have easily coasted along with him and wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to make him train.

"Since Muyue-sensei you really are organizing special training, I'll have to bring my teammates along to study hard when the time comes." Asuma said he would bring his teammates to support Muyue's event. He was a just-graduated genin this year.

To be fair, Asuma thought Muyue might not be as strong as a jonin, but his teaching ability was definitely much better than his own jonin instructor.

Every weekend after training with Muyue, he felt he had gained a lot.

Going to study with Muyue for a month would definitely yield much more than their usual training.

"Kakashi, let's have a match full of youth and passion."

"I understand the reasoning, but next time, could you not come in while I'm taking a bath!" Kakashi, who was lying in the bathtub, said speechlessly to Might Guy, who had suddenly burst in.

He was fed up too—why did Might Guy always show up at such terrible times?

"Because I was training during the day, so I came over at this time." Might Guy explained.

"So can you please go out first?" Kakashi, looking at Might Guy who was explaining without moving from his spot, felt a headache coming on.

He felt that among his few friends, only Rin was normal.

Might Guy finally walked out. As he reached the door, he looked back out of curiosity, which made Kakashi lose his composure and throw a bottle at Might Guy.

"Next time, I'll definitely set up a trap at the bathroom door!" Kakashi warned Might Guy after finishing his bath.

Might Guy ignored Kakashi's words, clenched his fist, and shouted with a face full of passion:

"Kakashi, let's have another all-out, passionate battle once more!"

"My strength is different from before this time. If you're careless, you'll lose."

"Let's go to the yard. I hope your strength is as strong as your mouth." Kakashi said calmly.

"This time, I got first place in the ninja academy for the year. Don't underestimate me." Might Guy gave a thumbs up and laughed loudly.

"Isn't that the kind of thing where you just participate and you get first place?" Kakashi, who had never lost in the ninja academy exams, said with a calm expression.

The two walked into the yard, met eyes, nodded to each other, and that was the start of the battle.

"Leaf Great Whirlwind!"

Might Guy knew Kakashi was strong, so he immediately used his newly learned Chakra burst technique to quickly dash in front of Kakashi and kick out a whirlwind kick.

Although he hadn't fully learned Shunpo yet, using the technique to accelerate was still possible.

"Hmm? This speed."

Kakashi hadn't expected Might Guy to show such speed. Unable to dodge, he directly blocked Guy's kick with his arm and stepped back a few paces.

Might Guy pressed the advantage and immediately charged again, trying to prevent Kakashi from using ninjutsu with his relentless attack tempo.

But Kakashi wasn't Obito. Might Guy was shocked to find that he wasn't gaining an advantage in the taijutsu exchange; in fact, he was gradually falling behind.

"Leaf Whirlwind!"

Kakashi, gradually turning the tide, directly kicked out a whirlwind kick that sent Might Guy flying. With a Shunshin technique, he immediately placed a kunai against Might Guy's neck.

"Kakashi, your Leaf Whirlwind is a bit off." Might Guy honestly corrected.

"As long as you can win the fight, isn't that enough?" Kakashi put away his kunai and said.

Having only seen Guy use it a few times, how could he perfectly replicate it right away?

Kakashi just wanted to get back at Might Guy for barging into the bathroom, to make Guy feel a bit frustrated.

But he found that Might Guy didn't react much to being beaten by his own specialty, taijutsu.

"As expected of my rival I'm chasing after — truly too strong." Might Guy said with a proud expression.

In this battle, Kakashi didn't even use much ninjutsu and still defeated him.

Seeing Might Guy's expression, Kakashi was at a loss for words for a moment. An outsider might think Might Guy had won the fight.

"When I challenge you next time, I'll be even stronger!" Having once again felt the gap between them, Might Guy was fired up. He greeted Kakashi and ran off directly to train.

"Guy's strength has been increasing much faster lately..." Kakashi thought as he watched Might Guy's retreating figure.

Today Might Guy's performance surprised him a bit. That kick at the start had genuinely caught him off guard. Such a thing would have been impossible before.

One more chapter coming up.
