"Aomi, this is..."
Might Guy felt his thigh muscles clearly relax, the pain from the cramp seemed to visibly dissipate.
"This is the Mystical Palm Jutsu, Guy."
"By channeling chakra from the palms into the body, stimulating the healing capacity of the muscles, it's a type of medical ninjutsu."
Might Guy blurted out, "Aomi-kun, can you teach me?"
But after saying it, he regretted it.
Not to mention whether he could learn it, just the scroll of such a rare medical ninjutsu like the Mystical Palm Jutsu would be worth a fortune in the black market, why would he teach it to him?
Might Guy's face instantly turned red, and he was just about to hastily explain.
Aomi smiled and shook his head, signaling him not to rush:
"The Mystical Palm Jutsu requires extremely precise control of chakra and also the ability to assess the injury's severity in a patient; if too much chakra is inputted, it could instead cause bodily disorder and worse effects."
"Guy, just focus on your taijutsu training, if you need me, feel free to seek my help."
Might Guy stared straight into Aomi's sincere eyes and slowly spoke a sentence that many wouldn't understand:
"Aomi-kun, please allow me to be your lifelong rival!"
"Sure..."
Aomi took his hand off Might Guy's thigh, stood up, reached out his hand, and pulled him from the ground, saying, "Let's work hard together, Guy!"
[Sensing a strong urge to surpass the host from Might Guy, bounded as a target to compete against!]
"This thick-browed jerk..."
Shisui pouted, not in a pleasant mood, remembering how Aomi seemed to only have healed him before, he mumbled, "Hmph, Big Brother is just trying to spare your feelings..."
"Only I can be Big Brother's lifelong rival and protector!"
Shisui quietly competed with Might Guy in his heart, though he was also secretly impressed by his rapid improvement.
"Training, I must train more seriously!" Shisui spoke to himself in his mind.
Might Guy went from being a tail-end who couldn't enter Ninja School to his current achievements in taijutsu, which could be considered rapid progress.
In fact, among the generation of Kakashi and Obito, most of those who would become Jonin in the future graduated at the ages of nine or ten.
Only Kakashi was a prodigy who graduated at six, while Might Guy only lagged slightly behind, graduating successfully at seven.
He started late but was the kind who made a breakthrough after accumulation, with enduring momentum...
"Aomi, with the strength you have now, it's very gratifying for your teacher..." Unno Ikkaku came over, with a sigh and gently patted Aomi's shoulder:
"How about it? Do you still have the energy? Want to try facing off against the Hatake Chunin?"
"Not only will it spare you the cumbersome graduation assessment process, but there might be unexpected benefits, such as attention from the Third Hokage..."
Unno Ikkaku, with his back to Kakashi, had encouragement in his gaze.
As a veteran Chunin, he had a good sense of judgment of a ninja's strength.
In his view, as long as Kakashi couldn't end the fight quickly with his sword techniques, he couldn't beat Aomi.
Unno Ikkaku wanted this gentle but strong student of his to seize this opportunity to truly make a name for himself in Konoha!
But to his surprise.
Aomi slowly shook his head, "I'd rather not, Ikkaku-sensei, I don't plan on graduating for now."
"This time, it's just that I need to respect the regulations of the Ninja School exams, since I've been drawn, I need to take the match and opponent seriously..."
"As for bypassing the graduation assessment, to be honest, I'm quite looking forward to this year's test on the Will of Fire..."
Aomi winked at Unno Ikkaku and then returned to the audience stands.
Kakashi looked at Aomi intently, his heart in turmoil.
After Aomi showed his abilities, Kakashi was very eager to spar with him, as a super genius who always stood proud above others, Kakashi hadn't felt competitive pressure from peers in a long time...
If it weren't for the Hatake family's strict teachings, Kakashi would have wanted to force Aomi to spar with him.
Might Guy, who always clung to him, had even set a "lifelong rival" oath with Aomi, further deepening Kakashi's feeling of emptiness, adding another layer to his loneliness.
"Rin, if you have time this weekend, come to the Uchiha Clan Land, I'll teach you the Mystical Palm Jutsu." Aomi walked over to Nohara Rin, smiling:
"While I was healing Guy, I noticed you were watching closely, you seemed really interested in the technique..."
As Aomi got closer, Nohara Rin's pale face immediately blushed, and her speech became a little stammered: "No, not at all Aomi-kun, such precious ninjutsu..."
"I just didn't want Guy to waste his time, don't you have a passion for medical ninjutsu?"
"I would be very happy if I could help you."
Aomi's expression was sincere, and his tone was genuine, but his words carried a hint of subtle ambiguity.
This contradictory mix of expressions and words made Nohara Rin's heart feel tumultuous.
Especially since Aomi, who had just been in the spotlight, had noticed her expression and sought her out first once it was over.
A girl's heart is always filled with imagination, even with Nohara Rin's carefree and gentle nature, she wasn't immune.
"Alright, Aomi-kun, I'll visit you on Sunday, I'll count on you then..."
"Great, we're set." Aomi nodded to Nohara Rin with a smile and returned to Shisui's side.
For a moment, countless gazes secretly turned to Aomi.
Anyone, whether a slow-witted Ninja School student or a teacher, knew that yet another Uchiha genius was about to become famous in Konoha.
Interestingly enough, he's an Uchiha proficient in Water Release, with an incredibly gentle demeanor and a strong interest in the Will of Fire!
Many of the Ninja School teachers saw the moment when Aomi and Might Guy encouraged each other, their eyes shining brightly, feeling that it was the best motivational story that could be told for generations...
While Nohara Rin and Aomi arranged their meeting, Uchiha Obito was still passed out on the ground like a dead dog, ignored by everyone.
Sarutobi Asuma watched Aomi's back, unable to calm his mind, he developed a great interest in him.
As a rebellious child, he didn't believe in the Will of Fire and had disdain for his father.
But as his peer, Asuma had to admit that Aomi was far superior to him, yet held the Will of Fire in high esteem...
Thus, Asuma wanted to find answers about the Will of Fire from Aomi.
And his father, Sarutobi Hiruzen, having watched the live display the whole time, smiled with satisfaction, "Good, a very good Uchiha Aomi!"
