Chapter 15 Scared Gojo

Konoha.

Ninja Academy.

"Please take care of me from now on~"

Neji, who was in despair, suddenly heard the voice he least wanted to and as he saw Gojo standing before him with a big smile on his face.

Tch...

Neji clicked his tongue in annoyance as this carefree attitude of Gojo really ticked him off, and even if he didn't want to admit it, deep in his heart, Neji envied Gojo.

He was a bird locked in a cage, and Gojo was like a bird flying freely before him, making him curse his fate even more.

"It seems I really can't change him"

How could his emotion be hidden from someone like Gojo, who just can't understand what past experience made the current Neji?

Though Gojo was somewhat sad about being unable to change Neji, he knew one day Neji would understand that cursing fate won't do him any good, and he had to move forward if he wanted to grow.

"I will be in your care, Neji san"

Lee also arrived beside him, and straightening his arms, he respectfully bowed to him.

"Your Jonin Instructor will come and pick you up"

Yosh!!!

After announcing the last squad, Iruka left after informing them; just as he left, a large shout was suddenly heard by everyone.

BANG!!!

The class door was violently pushed open with a bang sound as everyone saw a strange person standing at the door with a broad smile on his face showing his white teeth.

"Yosh!!! Konoha Blue Beast, Might Guy, at your service!!!"

Everyone saw the figure jumping in the air, and after doing a somersault, he landed on the ground; with his arms wide open, he announced his identity.

"Guy Sensei!!!!"

The whole class had pin-drop silence for a few seconds before it was broken by the roar of Lee.

"Sure enough, I'm still far behind Guy Sensei"

With his eyes full of tears, Lee looked at his idol's divine pose, and he knew that he was still far behind him.

"Lee, get ready; our youthful days are finally about to begin!!"

Guy didn't care about the weird gazes on him as he arrived before Lee and smiled with his white teeth shining.

"Guy Sensei, you mean… you are our Jonin Instructor?"

Lee looked at Guy with eyes full of hope as he prayed that what he had guessed was true.

"You bet it is!!!"

"Guy Sensei!!!"

Hearing his confirmation, Lee couldn't control himself anymore as with tears in his eye, he jumped and hugged Guy.

"Don't cry, Lee; your springtime of youth is finally here, rejoice."

With a serious expression covering his face, Guy rubbed the head of Lee, who was still in his arms.

"I'm not crying, Guy Sensei… I'm just too happy."

Lee didn't stop hugging Guy as he explained his happiness.

"Lee!!!"

"Guy Sensei!!!"

Hearing his words, even Guy teared up as he shouted the name of Lee with emotion, and the response was the same.

"Puke!!"

Gojo couldn't handle it anymore as he arrived at the window and began to vomit.

"Too terrifying…"

Thought Gojo as his face was slightly pale since even the grossest Cursed Spirit never scared him this much

Puke…

The mental qualities of others were far weaker than Gojo, and after only vomiting once, they all passed out from the shock.

"Everything's over… another weirdo…."

Neji's expression was even paler as he lay by the wall as an aura of despair loomed around him.

He was already having trouble with two weirdos, and now another bigger one was added, causing him to collapse.

-----------------------

"Okay, let's start with the introduction"

Guy looked at his three students with passion burning in his eyes and wanted to polish them all into fine diamonds.

"My name is Neji Hyuga, and I'd rather not say anything anymore"

With a suffocated expression on his face, Neji told his name as some effects of the earlier terrifying sight could still be spotted on his face.

"Me! Me!, I'm Rock Lee, and my dream is to become the strongest Taijutsu user and prove that even someone like me can become a Ninja"

Lee was pumped up as he introduced himself enthusiastically.

"My name is Gojo Satoru~ and I don't dream; it's a fact that I will become a teacher"

Gojo seemed to have recovered from the earlier incident, and in his usual carefree and arrogant tone, he introduced himself.

"I see... then before our first mission, I will take a little test of yours, and if you fail, you will be sent back to the academy"

Guy looked at them with a smile on his face, but his words caused the expression on the face of Lee and Neji to change slightly.

"What is the test?"

There was a silence for a few seconds before it was broken by the question of Neji.

"You have to run 500 laps around the village, and only the top 2 will pass the exam"

Guy announced the test as well, and its rule as the expressions on the face of Neji and Lee became even tenser.

Gojo wasn't worried as he was thinking carefully about the purpose behind this test. Is it just to test their endurance? Gojo isn't that much of a fool to believe that.

"You have three hours and your time starts now!!!"

Guy didn't give Gojo much time to think as he announced the start of the exam in his usual loud voice.
