Hefeng Leaves-Who Will Become Head of the Martial Monk Hall?

Guy and Chiriku arrived at the square before the main hall.

On either side outside, a farewell procession of monks was already standing in neat rows.

Chiriku pulled Guy over, and they took their places near the back of the line to wait.

When the other martial monks saw Guy arrive, they could not help but glance at him a few extra times.

Although Guy had been at the Fire Temple for over two months, everyone knew that a new junior brother named Fahai had arrived.

But they had never truly gotten to know him.

It was only after the incident on the mountainside today that they had truly come to know Guy.

Especially the terrifying strength Guy had displayed.

With a single blow, he had shattered the Wrathful Vajra statue of Hefeng, Head of the Martial Monk Hall.

It was ridiculously powerful!

Quite a few people now viewed Guy in a different light, their gazes carrying a little more awe and curiosity.

But even more than that, they were speculating about Abbot Huiyan's attitude and the daimyo's intentions.

They could not understand why this newly arrived junior brother Fahai had received both the abbot's protection and the daimyo's favor.

They whispered among themselves, wondering whether he had some extraordinary background.

And that strange summoning beast capable of splitting apart to heal others.

Afterward, several well-traveled monks had recognized it as well.

It was Katsuyu, the personal summoning beast of Tsunade, one of Konoha's Three Sannin.

This only deepened everyone's speculation about Guy's origins and background.

Guy remained calm.

Standing beside Chiriku, his expression did not change.

If they wanted to speculate, then let them speculate.

In any case, his circumstances were not some earth-shattering secret.

Anyone determined to investigate would eventually learn the general details.

Not long after Guy
