Chapter 17: Might Gai Clears His Name
At noon, in the office, various teachers discussed their experiences in invigilating the exam.
"That Hyūga Kento from Class Four is so powerful. He is worthy of being a ninja of the Hyuga clan. Almost no one in Class One can hold on to him for a minute." Isamu said with some envy.
"I guess he is the first in the actual grade this time."
Ikari Isamu wished that he was the class teacher of Class 1 of 4 instead of Class 2 of 4, so that he could not just take the bonus casually, but also have money to date his blind date to a high-end restaurant. .
But this is impossible. With such good grades, it is naturally impossible to change teachers.
"Not necessarily. I think the Uchiha Obito in your class is pretty good, and he might be able to compete." Kimura Sugito interjected.
Ikeya Isamu showed a puzzled expression and asked:
"Sugito, did you say the wrong name? It's Uchiha Ikunori. His strength is indeed good."
"How could I say the wrong name? It's Uchiha Obito." Kimura Shanren said that he is very young and does not have Alzheimer's disease. He is talking about Uchiha Obito.
"Uchiha Obito? Impossible, what kind of strength can he have? Are you high?" Isamu looked at Kimura Sugito suspiciously, suspecting that he was fooling him.
Uchiha Obito is famous for being the shame of the Uchiha. How could he have such a nickname if he is really powerful.
"Can I still lie to you? Uchiha Obito's opponent in the first match was the Uchiha Ikunori you mentioned. He won very easily." Kimura Sugito continued.
Seeing that Ikari Isamu still didn't believe it, Kimura's Sugitu pulled Makoto out and said:
"Teacher Makoto proctored the exam with me. If you don't believe me, ask him."
Isamu looked at Makoto.
Makoto nodded and said: "It is indeed the same as what Mr. Kimura said, Uchiha Obito defeated Uchiha Ikunori in the first game."
"Hey, then this is really weird." Ikari Isamu scratched his head, feeling incredible.
He believed Makoto's words. After all, that was Teacher Makoto who had been recognized by all the teachers only one month into the job. He couldn't be too reliable.
"Why can he defeat Uchiha Ikunori?" Isamu scratched his head and couldn't figure out why it would be like this.
As for the crane tail that was promised, how did he defeat the previous number one in the class?
It can't be a mysterious teacher from heaven who secretly teaches advanced ninjutsu.
Looking at Isamu's performance, Makoto secretly thought in his heart, just because Obito showed his strength, you become so confused. If Might Gai shows his strength again, he must be suspected of being under an illusion.
Ikari Isamu can be considered a winner this time, and Makoto estimates that he should have kept his bonus.
Makoto thought for a while, Ikari Isamu didn't just win by lying down, he also made a contribution.
Because Ikari Isamu often asked him to take his place as a substitute teacher and help him recruit apprentices to earn rewards, which can be considered a bit of credit. In addition, he did treat him to dinner frequently, so he knew how to get along.
"Ms. Hosakawa's class is amazing." Ueda Aya, who had been silent until now, spoke up. She was in charge of the exam for Makoto's first-year class.
"The overall level of the three body skills is almost the same as that of the second graders I taught." Aya Ueda sighed.
"Especially there is a super genius named Uchiha Shisui, who reminds me of Kakashi Hatake a few years ago. He will definitely be the number one in actual combat in the first grade this time."
"You can compete with Kakashi Hatake. Is it so exaggerated?" Isamu looked surprised.
It doesn't matter if you are number one in grade, but being on par with Kakashi is terrifying.
You must know that Kakashi has been recognized as a super genius in the Ninja School in recent years, and his subsequent performance has also been very impressive. He was directly promoted to Chunin one year after graduation.
"It's so exaggerated. It's simply not on the same level as other first-year students." Aya Ueda nodded and said.
"This is so cool. Mr. Hosakawa, you are so lucky. You can be judged casually." Isamu looked envious. Why didn't he have such luck? He would be satisfied if he could keep the bonus.
"What luck? Mr. Hosakawa teaches well. As for the overall level, we can't say that all the talented ones went to Mr. Hosakawa's class." Ueda Aya corrected.
She does not think that Class One is so strong because of the abundance of talents, but because Makoto's teaching skills are excellent.
Otherwise, how could the students in the substitute class hope that Makoto would come more often.
That's not two classes in one class. All the classes that were substituted received good reviews.
"Slip of the tongue. Of course I know that Mr. Hosakawa is good. My students wish that Mr. Hosakawa would go to class after I was busy every day."
As he spoke, Isamu became a little depressed.
He only let Makoto teach occasionally, and most of the time he taught classes by himself, but the students liked Makoto better.
"It's okay, it's all because of the students' hard work." Makoto said modestly.
After chatting with his colleagues for a while, Makoto quickly started practicing calligraphy until the exam started in the afternoon.
It's still training ground No. 16, but there are a lot less people than in the morning.
Because the exam does not force students who have already lost to continue taking it, they can decide whether to come or not.
As time passed, the battles progressed one by one. Nohara Rin, who was not very good at fighting, was eliminated in the first round in the afternoon.
And Might Gai, who could cleanly deal with any enemy he encountered, was finally noticed by everyone.
"It turns out that Might Gai's physical skills are so strong. His speed is too fast. He defeated Daisuke with one kick." The onlookers were surprised.
"It's changed a lot. I remember when I was in third grade, I could only say it was okay, not that strong." A student who knew Might Gai was a little confused.
"Maybe he practiced harder during the summer vacation and the new semester?" He could only speculate on this possibility.
"The final battle, No. 1 Uchiha Obito versus No. 40 Might Gai, please prepare to start the battle." Makoto announced the list of the final battle of the class practical examination.
After hearing this, Might Gai and Obito looked at each other and quickly walked to the examination venue, ready to start fighting.
"Gai, I won't give up this first place to you." Obito glanced at Rin standing outside, and his fighting spirit instantly increased.
In front of Rin, he really didn't want to lose at all.
"Me too. Since you want to be the strongest, you must get all the first places you can strive for!" Might Gai replied with high spirits.
"I really let them get to the end." The student who had complained about the two before felt a little pain in his face.
They felt it was outrageous. The third graders were still lagging behind. Who would have thought that the fourth graders would be so powerful all of a sudden.
Who would dare to think like this before the exam begins? They all think that Uchiha Ikunori will be the first in the class in actual combat.
They couldn't imagine what the two of them would get into during the holidays and the new semester.
After finishing their harsh words, Might Gai and Obito stopped talking. The two faced each other and formed a seal of opposition.
"Start!"
