"Guy, congratulations on getting first place in your grade," Mugetsu said with a faint smile.
Looking at Mugetsu's warm and gentle expression, like the spring sun, Might Guy was montarily dazed.
He had always been confident in himself, firmly believing that with constant effort and relentless training, he would one day beco the strongest.
Yet even before graduating from Ninja School, he had faced countless setbacks—failing the entrance exam, only getting in through supplentary enrollnt, earning poor grades, being labeled a "tail-ender," and getting defeated instantly by Kakashi in their first match…
Most of the ti, he'd laugh it off and press forward. Sotis, doubts crept in—but he'd always shake them off and keep going.
Even so, he hadn't expected such a dramatic change to co so soon.
Last sester, he hadn't even cracked the top twenty. But this ti, his lowest score was second in the grade, and he'd taken first in practical combat—rising to beco the strongest in the Fourth Grade.
And he knew exactly who had made that change possible: Mugetsu.
Mugetsu had taught him Taijutsu, given him rare dicines—he had helped him grow this far in such a short ti.
"This is all thanks to your guidance, Teacher Mugetsu!" Guy said, clenching his right fist, eyes brimming with tears.
"Don't downplay your own efforts," Mugetsu replied. "While my guidance played a part, your hard work is what earned you first place. Keep training like this, and you'll definitely reach your dream."
Fired up by Mugetsu's encouragent, Might Guy felt as if he could already see the day he'd beco the strongest Taijutsu user. He nearly dropped down to start doing push-ups right then and there.
"This is the training thod and experience scroll for Shave. Take it ho and read through it. Tomorrow morning during training, I'll teach you how to begin practicing it," Mugetsu said with a smile, handing over the scroll.
[You gifted your disciple the training scroll for Shave. The disciple is extrely grateful, triggering a massive critical reward. You have obtained: Leaf Dragon God (Mastery).]
Overwheld by the disciple's gratitude, Mugetsu was instantly rewarded with a mastery-level advanced Taijutsu. A flood of training mories related to Leaf Dragon God surged into his mind.
"Ah, it's that Taijutsu," Mugetsu murmured. "Then I can't teach this one yet."
In the original story, this Taijutsu was developed by a Taijutsu master nad Teacher Chen. Even his own disciples hadn't fully learned it. For soone else to use it now would seem… strange.
Even if copyright weren't an issue, Mugetsu had no plans to teach this move yet. The physical and chakra demands were far too high for his students at this stage.
"Teacher Mugetsu, I understand. I'll study it carefully when I get ho," Guy replied, nodding earnestly.
Back when Mugetsu had taught Shave to Shisui, Guy had already longed to learn the technique. Now that he had it in hand, he treated the scroll like a precious treasure.
"You don't need to co to my place to train today. Take the day to relax and do sothing you want," Mugetsu added after a mont of thought.
He was laying the groundwork for Guy's next training mission.
Obito, after being comforted and encouraged, had already set a new mission: to beco first in his grade. But Might Guy hadn't triggered anything yet.
Training missions were essential for earning large chakra gains and rare rewards. Once completed, they granted incredible growth.
Mugetsu had started planning this two weeks before the final exams. Once the first mission was completed, the next needed to be triggered as soon as possible.
For the student who lost, it was easy: motivate them, and they'd naturally set a goal to reclaim first place.
But for the student who won, the challenge was different. The mission had to be tailored to their goals and personality.
In Guy's case, Mugetsu believed that "defeating Kakashi" was the right path—a goal that would resonate deeply with him and be easy to trigger.
So he told him to do sothing he wanted to do.
After such an explosive improvent and winning first place, Guy would inevitably want to challenge his longti rival.
Once Kakashi defeated him, the new training mission would naturally activate.
Though a similar setup in the past had only triggered a "set training plan" mission, Mugetsu didn't think his thod was flawed. Back then, the trust wasn't deep enough, and Guy hadn't yet grasped the extent of his own growth.
After all, even if the triggered mission hadn't matched his expectations, it was still a mission.
Guy nodded, already planning to visit Kakashi soon.
Ever since he'd started his intense training, he hadn't challenged Kakashi again—and now his fists were itching.

After Obito's treatnt, Mugetsu returned to practicing Sealing Techniques, reviewing the knowledge Kushina had shared with him.
It had been ten days since Kushina handed over Three-Finger Sealing. In truth, he had already mastered it by the sixth day—he had spent the rest of the ti refining it and studying further.
As his understanding deepened, Mugetsu discovered several interesting chanisms within Sealing Technique theory.
Under the sa chakra output, the smaller the seal's effect, the stronger and more difficult it beca to break.
Take One-Finger Sealing, for example—it sealed the entire body's chakra, making it relatively easy to resist.
But if the sa technique was altered to seal only one limb's chakra, its strength increased significantly.
The sealing effect remained the sa, but the focus narrowed—and that made the seal more solid.
On the other hand, if you increased the total chakra poured into a seal, its power naturally grew.
The Six Paths Chibaku Tensei, used to seal Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, was arguably the strongest sealing technique in the Naruto world—but it had heavy requirents, including both Yin and Yang Six Paths power.
Mugetsu began to grasp why the Uzumaki Clan was so proficient in Sealing Techniques: it was because they naturally possessed massive chakra reserves.
"Chakra really is everything," he muttered, deeply aware of its importance.
Without the system cheat he brought with him after transmigrating, even with foreknowledge of the plot, it would've been hard to gain a foothold in this world.
"Once sumr vacation begins, chakra gains might slow down," he thought to himself.
Aside from the exam rewards due in two days, there wouldn't be any easy way to farm chakra or jutsu through the academy.
Classroom sessions had beco a significant source of chakra. If he spent a full month of classes solely farming chakra instead of jutsu, he could earn around 800 chakra.
Still, no classes ant more free ti for training with Guy and Obito—aning faster student growth and better disciple chakra returns.

That evening, after buying fish, Mugetsu returned to his house in the Main District. Tonight, he planned to prepare a new dish—one that was both delicious and visually impressive—for Kushina and Minato.
