NOVEL NEXT Chapter 10: 9
"???????"
Listening to Naruto's explanation.
Kiba Inuzuka, Shikamaru, and Chōji.
The three of them stood there dumbfounded, speechless for a moment...
Originally, they thought that the owner of the dango shop was admitted to the hospital because Naruto took his business and he was overly angry.
It turned out to be due to sheer exhaustion!
With your Naruto-level dedication, even if he doesn't go to the hospital today, he'd have to go every few days!
Setting up a stall at 4 o'clock in the morning—are you still human?
"Naruto, you b*****d, you simply don't let others survive!"
Shikamaru let out a sigh.
Naruto didn't care at all.
While collecting money and handing over dango, he silently sighed:
"In any case, speaking of it, the boss was able to save his life, thanks to me."
"Why?"
"If it weren't for me, I'm afraid no one would have found out if the boss collapsed here."
...
The sun was shining.
Village gate.
It was already lunchtime, and the changing guards came to stand in front of the door on time.
And at this time.
Two watermelon rind-wearing figures, who had just finished their long-distance running training, stopped by the wall to rest.
"Hoo, hoo~"
Rock Lee propped his knees on one leg and leaned on the wall with the other, panting heavily.
Might Guy also stopped raising his legs and stretched his muscles on the spot.
"How about it, Lee!"
"Waking up two hours early to run, don't you feel that the effect is significantly improved!"
Might Guy was moved.
Rock Lee is an apprentice he just accepted not long ago.
No talent, but has exceptionally tenacious perseverance.
Even after countless failures, he gritted his teeth and persisted, never giving up his dream of becoming a ninja...
He saw in Rock Lee the shadow of his past, the look of desperate struggle.
Such a hot-blooded boy, Might Guy can't let him down.
So.
Even if he is hacked into pieces and his body is smashed to bits, he must be cultivated!
Make Rock Lee an excellent ninja!
"Yes!"
"Sensei Guy!"
Rock Lee stood up, beads of sweat splashing from the ends of his hair.
With a thumbs up, he responded enthusiastically.
"Very effective!"
"We were too lax before!"
"A real ninja should get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to run and exercise! Run 200,000 meters!"
"The early bird gets the worm!"
"I believe in the truth that hard work can make up for one's weakness!"
Hearing Lee's speech, Might Guy nodded resolutely and also responded with a thumbs up.
"That's right!"
"This feeling of blood boiling, covered with sweat and afterglow, is youth!"
"We want to thank Naruto!"
"If it weren't for him, we might not have realized how slack we were!"
"Naruto, he is our guide!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei Guy!"
"Lee!"
"Sensei Guy!"
"Lee!"
...
The two were filled with passion.
Finally.
They didn't even control it, and they hugged each other directly!
At this moment, no matter who it is, if they see this scene, they will probably be infected by the intense atmosphere.
They couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise: What a pair of Konoha boys!
However.
At this time...
"Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey—"
A sound of brisk footsteps, approaching from afar, came from the gate of the village.
Naruto trotted while kicking his legs high.
He ran all the way to Might Guy.
"Huh? What are you two doing?"
Rock Lee was taken aback by the sudden question, while Might Guy gave a thumbs up happily.
"Naruto Boy! Here you come!"
"We just finished a long-distance run and are going to eat, do you want to join us!"
Rock Lee also shouted enthusiastically: "Yes, Naruto! It's rare that everyone is a passionate man, let's have a meal together! By the way, let's exchange running experience!"
However.
Faced with the sincere invitation of the two, Naruto was slightly taken aback.
Then.
He politely declined.
"Thank you for your kindness, but... I'm afraid it won't work."
"Why not?"
"Because my training is not over yet."
??????
Hearing Naruto's words.
Might Guy and Rock Lee didn't react for a moment.
After a full two seconds, Might Guy swallowed a little slowly and then asked:
"You, what did you say?"
"The training is still not over yet?"
"No, isn't it already noon?"
Naruto raised his legs and looked at his watch: "Not yet, I have to run 300,000 meters every morning, and today I'm still 50,000 meters short."
[Ding! Successful involution! You have obtained 100 involution points!]
[Ding! Successful involution! You have obtained 100 involution points!]
Puff!
After listening to Naruto.
Might Guy and Rock Lee, as if struck by lightning, almost spit out a mouthful of old blood!
3. 300,000 meters?
Are you kidding me?
The two of them are physical ninjas, and they only ran 200,000 meters in the morning.
But Naruto, he is 100,000 meters ahead of them!
Who!
"That's it for now. I have other things to do in the afternoon, so I have to finish running early."
"Goodbye!"
Naruto said.
Hey, hey, hey, he trotted away all the way.
Watching the figure of Naruto gradually fade into the distance.
From head to toe, the two of them were disheveled in the wind...
The passionate aura just now disappeared in an instant!
"This!?"
Rock Lee stared into the distance in shock, unable to speak a word!
He thought.
Getting up at 5 o'clock to run, running 200,000 meters a day, is hard enough.
But unexpectedly, Naruto worked harder than them!
He gets up earlier than them and runs farther than them!
This is too hard work! Too hard!
"Sensei Guy, we..."
Rock Lee turned his head dully, staring helplessly at Might Guy.
Might Guy at this moment, where else is there any other idea?
He burst into tears, biting his lip tightly.
"Lee!"
"It seems, it seems that our practice is not enough!"
"Not enough!"
"Even Naruto, who is not a taijutsu ninja, can run 300,000 meters. As taijutsu ninjas, how can we not be as good as him!"
Rock Lee: "Then..."
"Run another 100,000 meters!"
"Keep up with Naruto boy!"
"Youth! This time! Let it burn!"
