Li Zhenwu was still young, yet he boldly showcased his strength in front of a group of ninjas without any fear. On one hand, it's his confidence as a Saiyan; on the other, it was partly because he can rely on his 'young age.'
Everyone in the courtyard, including members of the Hyuga clan, the Third Hokage, the police department, and medical ninjas dealing with the bodies, were all quite astonished.
"Little Zhenwu, are you really that strong?" Guy Sensei couldn't help but exclaim.
"Of course, I'm a genius!" Li Zhenwu lifted his head, intentionally trying to show off a little.
He wasn't a genius like Uchiha Itachi, who comes from a special family background. The Uchiha clan's status was quite sensitive in Konoha right now, so even though Uchiha Itachi was a rare talent in Konoha, he wasn't regarded as an outstanding blessing for the entire village.
As for Li Zhenwu... he was a native of Konoha, born into a common family within the village—completely belonging to Konoha.
When talking about genius, Konoha ninjas at this moment couldn't help but think of Uchiha Itachi, who, at just eight years old, has already graduated from the ninja school and awakened his Sharingan.
Guy Sensei, however, was reminded of his lifelong rival, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, "Zhenwu, you're even more of a genius than that guy Kakashi!"
If Uchiha Itachi represents the current genius of Konoha, then a few years back, that title undoubtedly belonged to Kakashi Hatake, who became a Jonin at the age of only twelve.
"I'm not as good as Teacher Kakashi," Li Zhenwu humbly waved his hand.
Thanks to his cousin Rock Lee, Li Zhenwu has a decent relationship with Guy Sensei, so his knowledge of Kakashi goes beyond what he's seen in the manga from his past life.
Kakashi graduated from the ninja school at five and became a Chunin at six—his talent was indeed somewhat comparable to Li Zhenwu's.
However, while he verbally downplayed his abilities, inside, Li Zhenwu feels a sense of pride in being a Saiyan.
Saiyans... are not inferior to anyone!
"Even if you're behind, it's not by much!" Guy Sensei exclaims passionately, "I didn't expect your talent to be so strong, igniting my passion for talented individuals. Let's have a duel and see if you're really telling the truth!"
"If you're lying, you'll end up with some spanks, just so you know. Here I come!" Without waiting for a response, Guy Sensei leaped into action.
Guy Sensei knew that despite Li Zhenwu's confident declaration of his power, the ninjas present have an underlying doubt.
