kakagai or wangxian, genius? 👀
Kakashi’s head was throbbing from chakra depletion. He was out of medical leave after the last long absence. So, a village mission. Excited babbling drifted around him, rising—always rising—in fervor and pitch. He turned the page of his book. Eventually, the kids ran off to make trouble. He let them go. Kids should make a little trouble every now and again.
When the explosions started, he sighed and closed his novel. Happily, before he had to go after them, Guy dropped from a nearby tree shouting about a challenge.
“Teaching,” he suggested.
Guy frowned. “Is it fair to pit my students against yours? My team has experience.”
“Correct. You take my team for day, and I take yours. One mission each. Then all six kids vote on who did a better job today.”
“I accept!” Guy cried. Another explosion sounded from up the mountain.
“Great,” said Kakashi. “My brats are up that way. I assume your team is practicing on training field 32?”
Guy agreed, immediately dashing off to go wrangle Team Seven in Kakashi’s stead. Kakashi sat back and opened his book. Let Guy win this particular challenge. Being a genius was about working smarter, not harder.
