An Annoying Guy
Whenever Yunqing thought of White Zetsu's tree-planting ability, he became excited, a sense of happiness rising from deep within him.
That was right—don't forget that the Ten-Tails' body contained a hundred thousand White Zetsu.
What did a hundred thousand White Zetsu mean? If used well, they were a hundred thousand tree seeds capable of growing anywhere.
As for whether he could beat them or how he should fight, Yunqing felt that even the Sage of Six Paths returning to life could not stop him.
"Calm down, calm down. I still need to stay calm and proceed cautiously.
"Who knew? The Sage of Six Paths might really come back to life."
After getting excited for a while, Yunqing decided to be more cautious and make his plans bit by bit.
That was the only way to achieve the most perfect gaming experience and sense of happiness.
Still, whenever he thought of a hundred thousand White Zetsu and their hundred thousand great trees, Yunqing could not suppress his excitement.
"Thinking about it that way, future Yamato can grow trees too. Combined with White Zetsu, the results would be pretty amazing.
"If I could cooperate with Madara Uchiha, then with his Hashirama Cells, he would be an excellent tree planter as well."
The more Yunqing thought about it, the more excited he became. Once that excitement passed, it turned into anger.
Couldn't these people who planted trees everywhere spare a thought for Sunagakure's circumstances?
Especially the First Hokage. If he had agreed to come to Sunagakure and the Land of Wind to plant some trees and improve the environment, did he really think the First Kazekage would care about that little bit of money?
Would Sunagakure still have wanted to fight Konoha every day?
And Madara Uchiha—after learning to grow trees, if he had come to Sunagakure and improved the environment, wouldn't he have become the Kazekage in every sense of the word?
At that point, whoever he said to fight, Sunagakure would fight.
Do not doubt it. In the twisted ninja world, where someone could kill your entire family and still be forgiven, something like that really could happen.
After carefully recalling all the talented farmers who had appeared in the original story and considering whom he could scheme against—
Yunqing immediately returned to his desk, picked up a pen, and began recording everything bit by bit. He also wrote down plans in case they were needed someday.
While Yunqing was making plans about planting trees, the Ninja Academy was in an uproar.
"Hey, hey, did you hear? We have a new teacher."
"I heard. This teacher is going to teach us how to cultivate ninjutsu."
"Tsk, tsk. Teaching ninjutsu cultivation? This teacher must be incredibly strong."
"But why isn't Lord Suke teaching us ninjutsu?"
Sasori sat quietly in his seat, reading a book and paying no attention whatsoever to the discussions around him.
Until he was disturbed by a poor student unafraid of being intimidated by an academic prodigy.
"Sasori, say something too. Why isn't Lord Suke teaching us ninjutsu?"
A cheerful boy beside him shook Sasori repeatedly as he asked.
Sasori let out a helpless sigh. As a Genius, he disdained discussing such idiotic questions.
But since he was kind, he would reluctantly explain it to them.
"Because Lord Suke is a bloodline ninja. Most of his ninjutsu relies on his own bloodline, so it is not suitable for everyone.
"The new teacher probably does not possess a bloodline and is instead a powerful ninja who relies on nature transformations."
Sasori patiently explained it to those around him.
"Whoa, Sasori, you're amazing! You even know that. We discussed it for ages and still couldn't reach a conclusion."
The boy who had asked first stared at Sasori in shock.
"Xiao Chong, it isn't that difficult. If you think carefully, you can figure out the key to the problem too."
What else could Sasori say? He could only comfort him.
There was nothing else he could do.
After all, even Geniuses needed time to grow. For now, he could only endure in silence.
Kakuzu's feelings were complicated. He had originally been quite happy, but when he received the textbook Yunqing had compiled for him, his feelings became exceedingly complicated.
Ninja academies in other villages only taught a few Three Basic Jutsu, and the rest was left to the students themselves.
But Yunqing was different. Low-level ninjutsu from all Five Releases was fully available, and chakra nature cultivation was a required course.
Low-level Sealing Technique was mandatory on the exams, Medical Ninjutsu had become an elective, and taijutsu training accounted for the highest proportion of grades among all subjects.
Then there was the Ninja Training Guide Yunqing had written. At that moment, Kakuzu had a curse on the tip of his tongue and did not know whether he should say it.
With this teaching method, if the students came out and killed a few people yet still failed to become Chunin, they would be letting down Sunagakure's investment of resources.
If Kakuzu had received such an educational investment back then, he would already have been Kage-level when he challenged Hashirama Senju alone.
With a sigh, Kakuzu sorted out his feelings and entered the Ninja Academy, preparing to teach.
He had taken the money. Failing to do the job was not his style. Besides, if he dared swindle anyone out of money, Yunqing would probably show him why flowers were so red.
He would also show him whether someone with Earth Grudge Fear and five hearts could truly be killed.
Teaching at the Sunagakure Ninja Academy was not as tiring as Kakuzu had imagined.
He only needed to point out the students' mistakes. For things like hand-sign instruction, part-time Genin and Chunin were responsible.
With more than fifty students in a class, Yunqing also had to consider teaching quality if Kakuzu were expected to teach all of them alone.
Naturally, having considered this, Yunqing assigned him several teaching assistants to help him teach.
With a Kage-level ninja proficient in chakra from all Five Releases, Sunagakure's teaching quality rose dramatically.
For instance, Mister Sasori, who had wanted nothing more than to study mathematics, physics, and chemistry, research puppets, and explore the art of Eternal Life, was now painstakingly training in taijutsu and Five Release Ninjutsu.
"Listen carefully, all of you. Even Puppet Masters need to understand taijutsu and Five Release Ninjutsu. The ninjas you face will be strange and varied, so you must have enough ways to respond.
"Excellent taijutsu will allow you to fight for longer and deal with ninjas who break through your puppets' defensive line.
"Ninjutsu will let you handle all kinds of opponents, extend the battle line, and mount effective defenses and attacks.
"Your puppets cannot protect you every moment."
Looking at the Sunagakure students with their severely lopsided skills, Kakuzu explained everything bit by bit with the attitude of someone who took another's money and handled their troubles.
"Yes, Teacher Kakuzu. We will work hard."
The students training in the field responded together.
Hearing their thunderous reply, Kakuzu nodded in satisfaction and sat beneath the nearby eaves.
"How does it feel to be a teacher?"
Yunqing had appeared beside Kakuzu at some point and asked.
"Not bad. Compared to killing and looting, this way of making money is much more reassuring."
Kakuzu was not at all surprised by Yunqing's appearance beside him and answered without hesitation.
"Actually, what you love isn't money, but the process of making money, right?"
For some reason, Yunqing suddenly said this.
Hearing Yunqing's words, Kakuzu fell silent. He did not want to answer that question.
Seeing Kakuzu remain silent, Yunqing smiled and left.
Kakuzu's refusal to answer was the best answer.
"Tch. What an annoying guy."
Kakuzu immediately overturned what he had said before.
He had said Yunqing was a good person before.
Now, in Kakuzu's eyes, Yunqing was a complete bastard.
