If You Have the Guts, Try Mobilizing Them

"Is that so? If you have the guts, try mobilizing them!"

Yang Ming was completely unfazed by this.

He had agreed to keep a low profile in Grass Shadow, but that did not mean he would compromise in a situation like this.

With his current strength, even if the Five Kage came, he was qualified to face them head-on, let alone compromise.

The confrontation between the two immediately drew the attention of the people around them.

Many people had already been watching Yang Ming. Although the start of the celebration had diverted some of their attention, quite a few were still keeping an eye on him.

When Hino Raku approached, they immediately sneered at the sight.

"As a teacher, Hino Raku must have quite a headache with a student like this in her class. But no matter how much of a headache he is, someone like him should be expelled."

"The village does not support idlers, and the academy does not need trash. If he lacks the aptitude, he should be thrown out to do something else. Otherwise, he is simply wasting resources!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Some people had not known about this before, but upon hearing it now, they began sneering as well.

"Brother Gui, Sister Ye, Sister Jun, look! The teacher has personally stepped in!"

Since they were the finale, Gui Wenda and the other three would be taking the stage last.

Gang Qingtai had been bored and was looking around at Yang Ming when he noticed the scene. He quickly spoke up.

"Hm?"

The three of them immediately shifted their attention from the venue to Yang Ming, then sneered.

"He has no one to blame but himself. In this kind of setting, with things as they are, he is still trying to be independent. Does he think he is back in class?"

Gui Wenda sneered.

"Exactly. He is too solitary and too unable to fit in. For a profession like being a ninja, he really is unsuitable, no matter how talented he may be."

Fujishima Jun nodded in full agreement.

"What a pity, what a pity..."

Chang Jiaye sighed with regret written all over her face.

"Yuexia Ming, you have disappointed me too much. Since you insist on this, I have no choice but to use the power of a ninja squad. Do not think I am joking with you."

Hino Raku looked at Yang Ming, sighed in disappointment, then made a hand gesture.

Three figures immediately descended, clearing out everyone within three meters and surrounding Yang Ming without causing a disturbance.

"Hino Raku, is this the student you mentioned, Yuexia Ming?"

A middle-aged ninja looked Yang Ming over and spoke.

"Yes, Captain Hirokawa Shin, it is him. Please take him away. In my judgment, he is not suited to becoming a ninja."

Hino Raku respectfully addressed the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was Hirokawa Shin, captain of the third squad in this security operation, an elite chunin!

"Alright."

Hirokawa Shin nodded and looked at Yang Ming.

"Since your teacher has said so, Yuexia Ming, please leave this place. Someone will reevaluate your aptitude later. Of course, you may object, but that can wait until afterward. For now, please leave."

Hirokawa Shin was courteous before turning forceful.

After all, Yang Ming was not an enemy. He could not be too cold-hearted.

"The Grass Shadow Guard should be under Shui Daiyi's command, shouldn't it? Since when did a ninja academy teacher gain the authority to mobilize you?"

Yang Ming spoke calmly to Hirokawa Shin, utterly unmoved.

"She naturally does not have that authority. However, we are responsible for maintaining order throughout the venue. She has the right to report the situation to us, and we will make our own judgment. Also, Lord Shui Daiyi's name is not something you can casually use."

Hirokawa Shin said coolly.
