"Damn it! Starting tomorrow, I'll definitely win! And then I'll trade it for powerful ninjutsu so you'll know my strength!" Naruto said unconvinced.
"Naruto, don't get too hung up on ninjutsu. A ninja's strength is all-encompassing: spirit, body, and illusion."
"Ninjutsu is simply the icing on the cake," Kakashi advised.
"Kakashi is right, ninjutsu is the icing on the cake for a ninja. The most important thing for a ninja is the basics. The amount of chakra, physical strength, and resistance to illusion are the top priorities."
"But then again, I met a guy named [Master Kaido] on the forum earlier. That guy seems to be very good at teaching students. Several netizens have commented that, after his classes, their strength has increased considerably in a short time."
"The most outrageous of them went straight from Genin to Jōnin in just half a year," Senkawa commented.
"Master Kaido? Is there anyone that powerful in the ninja world?" Kakashi was slightly surprised.
"How incredible! It only takes half a year to go from Genin to Jōnin!" Sakura looked excited.
"Is half a year a short time?" Naruto was still a little confused.
Without further ado, Sasuke searched for Master Kaido on the forum.
A line of information about the other party popped up.
[Accepting a disciple!]
[Departure! From Genin to Jōnin in one month!]
[Departure...]
[Master, this time the apprentice is quite good. He went from Genin to Jōnin in half a year.] He's talented.]
Sasuke quickly clicked on the post and was moved by netizens' initial doubts, the final approval, and what some people said after completing his apprenticeship.
"If I receive instruction from this [Master Kaido], will I also have a chance to defeat that guy?" Sasuke's expression changed.
But the fees Master Kaido charges aren't really low.
The fee is 5,000 points a month. If he starts at five and goes until ten at night, it'll take more than a year, right?
Are you kidding? He doesn't have to wait that long!
"Sakura." Sasuke tried to force a smile.
"Good! How handsome! Sasuke-kun..." Sakura covered her chest with her hands, looking smitten.
"How many points do you have now?" Sasuke said.
"1...107."
"What? 107?" Sasuke yelled.
Naruto stared, and even Kakashi and Senkawa looked surprised.
"Y-yeah, is something wrong?" Sakura was startled by Sasuke's shout.
"Isn't it only 10 points for signing up today? How come you have so many? Did you... win them all in the fishing competition?" Sasuke seemed doubtful about his life.
"Yes, yes, Sasuke-kun, the Fishing Battle is so much fun. There are so many different fish, and each one has different points. There are even goldfish. If you catch one, you'll earn a ton of points..."
When it came to the fishing battle, Sakura immediately got excited and started talking nonstop.
This left Sasuke even more confused:
"Do the four games have different difficulty levels? Did I choose the hardest one?"
His eyes changed slightly, and he immediately decided to play the Fishing Battle.
After a moment, his already gloomy face turned black and smelly.
"Sasuke-kun... what's wrong with you? Did you lose? I'll give you my points," Sakura said with some concern.
"I... lend me 10 points, and I'll pay you back as soon as I have extra points."
Sasuke wanted to refuse, but finally gritted his teeth and changed his mind. Then he looked at Senkawa and said, "How do I exchange points?"
Senkawa immediately began teaching until Sakura gave Sasuke 10 points.
Naruto shouted angrily, "Ahhh! Sakura! I want one too. I want to add you as a friend and earn points."
As he spoke, he brought his face closer to Sakura, less than a few centimeters away.
"Get out of here! Idiot!" Sakura screamed and punched Naruto mercilessly in the side of his face, knocking him flying. "Master Kakashi, please give me some points. I'll die without them." Naruto covered his face with an aggrieved look, raised his gaze, and pointed it at Kakashi again.
Kakashi looked at his 21 points and originally wanted to transfer some to Naruto. Suddenly, his eyebrows raised, and a voice sounded from his mind:
"Kakashi, don't be so hasty about giving points to others. Besides playing games and learning ninjutsu, you can also read some good novels on the internet."
"For example, [Right to an Invincible Harem], [Sarutobi Security Guard], [The Grandmaster], [Muzan Mist Ninja]."
This is... Senkawa's voice, but why is it so ambiguous?
Kakashi was a little confused, but he still searched for [Right to an Invincible Harem].
[Great novel! Welcome to appreciate it!]
[On the artistic value of the characters!]
[Masterpiece!]
[If you haven't read Right to an Invincible Harem, you're missing out.]
Kakashi clicked directly on the first post. Lines of text leaped into his eyes.
At first, Kakashi's dead-fish eyes just glanced around casually, but
as he watched, his expression grew increasingly serious, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Sakura flinched at the sound and said,
"Kakashi-sensei! You're laughing so strangely!"
"That's right! Kakashi-sensei, where are my points? Give me the points!" Naruto also urged at this moment.
"Hmm?"
Their words brought Kakashi back to his senses. He looked at Naruto and was about to exchange points.
Senkawa's voice sounded quietly in Kakashi's mind again:
"[Right to an Invincible Harem] is a very interesting book, but... only the first few chapters are free. The author will charge points for the rest of the content."
Kakashi's expression changed, and he said seriously,
"Naruto, as a ninja, the most taboo thing is to get something for nothing! You must find a way to earn points through your own efforts! This is a sign of maturity! It's also what a true ninja should do!"
"Really?" Naruto wondered.
"But... aren't we partners?"
"Hmm? Partner? Am I not your teacher? There's a difference between a teacher and a partner. I'm only responsible for guiding you down the right path."
"Naruto! A real man should be able to stand tall and proud! Earn points with your own strength!" Kakashi said, shaking his fist at Naruto.
"I understand! Kaka-sensei! We're all real men!" Naruto punched seriously.
He gave Sasuke a provocative look,
"Sasuke! You're such an immature guy! You're not a real man!"
"..." Sasuke's face twisted, a little annoyed.
But after all, he had borrowed 10 points from Sakura, so he simply endured it with a sour face.
But Sakura wouldn't let Sasuke suffer a loss and immediately scolded Naruto.
Kakashi watched from the sidelines and sighed inwardly:
"There's no reason not to play video games in the future... there are other great books, I can't miss any of them..."
As Kakashi thought about it until the end, an endless fighting spirit appeared in his eyes!
