"Conduct special training for students about to graduate and those who have excelled..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment and said, "I think, Mutsuki, you underestimate your abilities. How about, on the basis of your special training plan, how about we include Genins who graduated this year as well? Those interested can join your special training program."
After speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and asked Mutsuki, "Mutsuki, what do you think?"
"Since Lord Third recognizes my abilities, I will do my best to give it a try," Mutsuki respectfully replied.
Mutsuki didn't mind having many students; he was eager to teach hundreds of students every day.
According to Mutsuki's estimation, the number of students during a lecture would also affect the teaching rewards. Therefore, he had rewards for teaching at the Academy.
While teaching Obito and the others, the number of students did not meet the standard, so there were no teaching rewards.
If all the fourth-grade students are gathered, along with outstanding students from other classes and some graduated Genin, assembling over three hundred people is not a problem.
Mutsuki wondered if there will be improvement in the rewards for teaching over two hundred people together.
"If you handle this special training well, improving the strength of students and Genin, you don't have to wait until the end of the year. Once the special training is over, you can be promoted to Special Jonin," Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.
If Mutsuki could consistently replicate the teaching achievements of one class per year, not to mention Special Jonin, even the leader of the teacher's could be replaced by Mutsuki.
However, when that time comes, he will have to have a serious conversation with his old friend Danzo about Mutsuki's identity.
While Academy senseis can be members of the Foundation, the leader of the teacher's class cannot be a member of the Foundation.
"I will inform the Academy to cooperate with your work. This matter will be conducted under your leadership," Sarutobi Hiruzen said.
Mutsuki expressed his gratitude, then went to the backyard, taking Asuma along to start the weekend training.
"Yumi-sensei, are you really organizing special training?" Asuma curiously asked.
Just now, he happened to overhear their conversation.
"Since Lord Third trusts me so much, I naturally can't let him down," Mutsuki said with a smile.
"I think the old man just wants to make you work hard. Teaching so many students from different grades and graduated Genin all at once, it must be exhausting for you," Asuma defended Mutsuki.
"And he didn't even mention how the wages would be calculated during the special training. If you end up getting the same pay as during normal times, Yumi-sensei, you'll be at a loss."
Hearing Asuma's words, Mutsuki thought that if Asuma was also a disciple, his trust level was probably high, as he had already started helping Mutsuki even against Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"I became a sensei not for the money; I just hope the students can improve," Mutsuki replied with a smile.
If another sensei had said this, Asuma would have dismissed it, thinking the person was just trying to sound good.
However, when Mutsuki said these words, Asuma felt it was only natural.
If it were just for money, Mutsuki could easily go along with Asuma's training without the need for elaborate planning.
"Since you're really organizing special training, Yumi-sensei, I must bring my teammates to learn from it," Asuma expressed his intention to support Mutsuki, as he had just graduated as a Genin this year.
Honestly, Asuma felt that Mutsuki might not be as strong as a Jonin, but his teaching abilities were definitely much stronger than Asuma's Jonin sensei.
Every weekend after training with Mutsuki, he felt he gained a lot.
Spending a month learning from Mutsuki would undoubtedly bring much greater benefits than their usual training.
...
"Kakashi, let's have a match full of youth and passion."
"I understand the sentiment, but can you please not come in when I'm taking a bath next time!" Kakashi, lying in the bathtub, looked at the suddenly appearing Guy and said with a sigh.
He was also exasperated; why did Guy always appear at such awkward moments?
"Because I was training during the day, that's why I came at this time," Guy explained.
"Can't you go out first?" Kakashi, looking at the unmoving Guy explaining in place, felt a bit of a headache.
Why did it feel like among his few friends, only Rin was a normal person?
Guy then walked out, and when he reached the door, he curiously turned back and looked, prompting Kakashi to throw a bottle directly at him.
"Next time, I'll definitely set traps at the bathroom door!" Kakashi warned Guy after finishing his bath.
Ignoring Kakashi's words, Guy clenched his fists, his face full of enthusiasm, and shouted, "Kakashi, let's have another intense battle at full strength."
"This time my strength is different from before; if you're careless, you might lose,"
"Let's go to the courtyard; I hope your strength matches your words." Kakashi said nonchalantly.
"This time I secured the top spot in the Academy's Grade. Don't underestimate me!" Guy raised his thumb and laughed heartily.
"Isn't that something anyone can achieve just by participating?" Kakashi, who had never been defeated in Academy exams, said indifferently.
As the two walked into the courtyard, their eyes locked, nodding to each other, signifying the beginning of their battle.
"Konoha Great Whirlwind!"
Guy, aware of Kakashi's strength, immediately unleashed the newly learned Chakra burst technique required for Soru, swiftly charging towards Kakashi and delivering a Whirlwind Kick. Although he hadn't fully mastered Soru, adding a speed boost using its techniques proved effective.
"Hmm? This speed."
Kakashi, caught off guard by Guy's unexpected speed, couldn't evade in time and directly blocked Guy's kick with his arm, taking a few steps back.
Guy, unrelenting, immediately charged again, aiming to prevent Kakashi from utilizing Ninjutsu through relentless offensive pacing. However, Kakashi was not Obito, and Guy was astonished to find that he wasn't gaining the upper hand in their Taijutsu exchange, gradually falling into a disadvantage.
"Konoha Whirlwind!"
Gradually turning the tide, Kakashi delivered a powerful Whirlwind Kick, sending Guy flying. He then used a Body Flicker Jutsu to place a Kunai directly at Guy's neck.
"Kakashi, your Konoha Whirlwind seems a bit off," Guy honestly pointed out.
"As long as it wins the battle," Kakashi said, putting away the Kunai. Having only seen Guy use it a few times, he couldn't replicate it perfectly.
Kakashi just wanted to settle the score for Guy's intrusion into the bath, giving him a bit of frustration. However, he found that Guy had no reaction to being defeated by his own Taijutsu, which he excelled in.
"Truly, my eternal rival, you're just too strong," Guy proudly declared.
In this battle, Kakashi didn't even use much Ninjutsu to defeat him. Kakashi, seeing Guy's expression, didn't know what to say for a moment. Those unaware might think that Guy had won the fight.
"Next time I challenge you, I'll become even stronger!" Feeling the renewed spark between them, Guy greeted Kakashi and immediately ran off to continue training.
"Guy's been growing stronger at a faster rate recently..." Kakashi mused as he watched Guy's retreating figure.
Today, Guy's performance surprised him a bit. The initial kick genuinely left him bewildered, something that would have been impossible before.
