Capítulo 38: Eternal Genin
Shintaro clenched his fist into his palm, took a forward and backward stance, lowered his body, and stepped forward to attack.
Guy was startled by Shintaro's sudden change in movement. He was hit by several consecutive moves and retreated a few steps, embarrassed to withdraw.
Shintaro said, "This isn't the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist, but the Uchiha Clan's Gentle Fist."
Guy showed an expression of realization.
He rushed forward, lifted his leg, and kicked.
This side kick was very strong, powerful enough to break a large tree.
*Whoosh*
This time, Shintaro didn't struggle but used softness to overcome strength. One palm pressed against Guy's leg and released the force along with the momentum, while the other palm struck his opponent's body again.
Guy lost his balance and retreated repeatedly with muffled sounds before barely regaining his balance.
The two continued to fight one-on-one.
Gentle Fist moves quickly and flexibly, excelling in short-range attacks close to the body. However, Guy's movements were wide open and closed, making it difficult to exert full force when close to the body.
They kept fighting, each movement so fast that Guy had no chance to withdraw and distance himself.
At any moment, Shintaro would close in again and hit him with several palm strikes.
Guy only felt his movements becoming slower and more tiring, until at some point he could no longer withstand it at all.
In an instant, Shintaro struck Guy's body, blocking most of Guy's acupoints, and he was thrown down, unable to get up again.
In this physical duel, Shintaro won.
Guy fell on his back on the rocky ground, struggling to rise with his hands on the ground.
Shintaro walked over and helped him stand, simultaneously helping to release the blocked chakra from Guy's body.
While tending to him, Shintaro sighed inwardly about Guy's unique constitution. After receiving thirty-two strikes, the meridians in his body were still strong, and the traces of Gentle Fist even showed signs of recovery.
'As expected from Shintaro... You're also better than me in physical skills... Training must be doubled tonight!'
Guy sighed and decided to work harder in his special training tonight.
Shintaro patted his shoulder and said, "Your physical skills are very strong, I acknowledge you."
"You probably haven't had lunch, right? Come on, I'll take you out for some barbecue."
Shintaro invited him to eat, first because he acknowledged the other's strength, and second because in the previous fight, his Six Eyes had mimicked his moves, so this could be considered compensation.
Guy showed an embarrassed expression, scratching his head and said, "I don't have much money..."
Shintaro waved his hand and said indifferently, "It's okay, I'll treat you."
Guy was still a bit embarrassed.
Shintaro said, "There's nothing to be ashamed of. We're all classmates. If you don't come, you won't be able to look at me."
He put his hands in his pockets and walked away.
Guy thought Shintaro was angry, so he hurriedly approached and repeatedly said, "I'm coming."
Thus, the two of them went to BBQ Q and enjoyed a lavish meal.
Guy felt embarrassed before he came. Once he got to the shop, he smelled the barbecue and started eating.
Shintaro had heard that Guy's father was an Eternal Genin, and his family was definitely not wealthy. Additionally, he trained in taijutsu all year round, which consumed a lot of physical strength and naturally had a large appetite, probably unable to afford meat often.
Seeing this, he asked the boss to serve several plates of meat and spent a lot of money. Fortunately, Shintaro had just completed a mission and had some spare money.
Because of the time it took to grill the meat and their large appetites, the meal lasted more than an hour.
Over an hour later, after they had eaten and drank enough, they stood up and left the shop.
As soon as they both stepped out the door, a figure caught their attention.
It was a man who looked very much like Guy, with dark bowl-cut hair with a center part, and he also wore tight green pants and orange leg warmers.
Perhaps the only difference was the man's scarf, which was yellow.
The man was hopping along the street. It turned out he was chasing a kitten in front of him.
At a glance, Shintaro knew it was Might Guy's father, Might Duy, and thought to himself: 'I heard he's an Eternal Genin, and now he's indeed doing a task of catching a cat that only a genin would do.'
He looked at Duy in front of them with interest.
Guy felt very embarrassed seeing this.
After all, he thought, Uchiha Shintaro is a Konoha Ninja genius and will surely become a Jonin in the future. But his father was just a Genin, doing low-level tasks on the streets.
Guy worried Shintaro would laugh at his father.
As a result, Shintaro said something unexpected to Guy, "Guy, is that your father?"
Guy nodded, and Shintaro smiled and said, "Your father is a very interesting ninja, he's very strong."
"Interesting? Strong?" Guy looked at him, thinking he was still mocking, but seeing his expression, he felt he was serious.
Shintaro nodded and said, "Yes, an interesting ninja."
He used his Six Eyes to find that Duy was more than he seemed on the surface.
It seemed like Duy only had Genin-level chakra in his body, but with his Six Eyes, Shintaro could see abnormalities in the other's meridians.
Judging by the meridians, Duy had at least once had Jonin-level chakra, which caused some permanent damage.
There were two possibilities.
One was that Duy had been a strong Jonin, but for some reason he was injured and his strength declined before becoming a Genin.
The other possibility was that Duy was indeed a Genin but had some secret technique allowing him to temporarily become a Jonin, thus he was injured and left with such traces.
Regardless of the possibility, Duy was not the Eternal Genin as the villagers said.
Guy was a bit confused because he thought his father was indeed an ordinary Genin, and he didn't even have ninjutsu talent like himself.
Even in terms of physical talent, Duy wasn't as good as him. When Guy was still in ninja school, he could run five thousand laps around the playground, but Duy could only run five hundred laps.
How could someone like that receive such an assessment from Shintaro?
Guy didn't go home after parting with Shintaro but went to the training ground where he usually trained to start his special training.
He trained until night, and the wooden piles used for practice were full of large holes from his punches.
Guy's hands were also in bad condition. The bandages on his hands were soaked with blood and sweat.
Guy was sweating heavily but still said, "Punch five thousand times. If I can't, squat two thousand times!"
"My youth will never give up!"
Half an hour later, Guy finally completed the five thousand punches and sat down tiredly to rest for a while.
At this time, Duy appeared at the training ground. When he saw his son, he walked over and wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "That cat was really hard to catch. It's already late."
He walked to the side and was stunned when he saw his son's injured hands, as he hadn't seen him train so hard and even ignore his hands in a long time.
"Guy, do you have a problem?"
He asked with concern.
Although Guy thought his father couldn't help much, he still told him that he lost to Shintaro in the field he was good at.
After listening to this, Duy also showed a serious expression on his face. He patted his son's shoulder and said sincerely, "It seems your path of youth has encountered a hurdle."
"As a father, there's only one last thing I can do."
"Listen, you must pay close attention, Guy."
Duy walked to the open space beside them as if he wanted to show something.
Guy immediately recalled what Shintaro had said – "Your father is an interesting ninja, he's very strong."
'Father… Isn't he the Eternal Genin?'
