I Can Become Stronger Just By Teaching

Chapter 59:



  "Finally..."

  "Finally done!" Obito cheered after completing the last question.

  After over ten days of hard work, he finally finished all the questions in each section. From today on, he no longer had to do questions every day.

  "What's done, Uchiha Obito? What are you yelling about? Get up and answer the question!" Isamu, who was startled by Obito, said unhappily.

  To his surprise, Obito got the answer correct. Isamu had no choice but to nod his head and let Obito sit down and listen to the lecture.

  "Rin, let's go out to play at night!" Obito chuckled as he sat down.

  "Tonight? Tomorrow is Saturday. How about going out to play tomorrow?" Nohara Rin said.

  "Ah? Is it the weekend again?" Obito asked, his eyes widened in surprise.

  He had just finished the questions for this section, so why was it the weekend when he was supposed to receive the questions?

  "Obito, you must have been confused in your studies recently. Today is already Friday," Nohara Rin joked.

  She had noticed Obito's recent efforts, and they were different from before.

  "It's finally the weekend break. I feel like class time goes by very slowly, but the weekend goes by in the blink of an eye."

  "Yeah, those long semester breaks don't feel as long as five days of school."

  Obito: ...

  The joys and sorrows of human beings are not as he thought they were.

  He felt that his time from Monday to Friday had been stolen. Every time he realized it, it was almost time to get out of school on Friday, and then it would be an extremely long weekend.

  "Rin, let's do it tonight. I have to practice during the day tomorrow, and I may not have much energy at night," Obito said weakly.

  As the final exam approaches, weekend training is even more challenging than before.

  When he was sparring with Might Gai before, he could still navigate the forest terrain, but later, they fought on level ground. He had to rely on speed and agility.

  So Obito decided to go out with Nohara Rin tonight, and Friday's training was relatively light.

  "That's it. Let's do it tonight. I'll find you after school, and then we'll meet up with Kakashi-kun," Nohara Rin nodded and said.

  Obito wanted to ask why Kakashi was coming along, but he decided not to.

  "Maybe she thought that Kakashi had no one to hang out with, so she invited him," Obito comforted himself.

  After school, Obito headed to the training ground as usual, and he was still the last one to arrive.

  It was the same routine as before: various physical exercises like push-ups, pull-ups, and squats.

  After a while, they started sparring.

  "I'll change the rules for today's match," Makoto called Might Gai and Obito over.

  "Each time one of you hits the other, the one who is hit will get 2 more questions, and the hitter loses one question. The match will last for seven minutes."

  "Every time he hits me, I will get two more questions, and the match will take seven minutes," Obito felt like a mountain of questions was coming his way.

  Previously, one hit meant one question, and the match lasted for five minutes. To Obito, this is doubling the intensity.

  The only advantage this time was that hitting Gai could eliminate one question. As long as he hits Gai enough times, he won't have to answer any questions.

  The problem was that Obito had been at a disadvantage in previous matches.

  He was glad he had the foresight to arrange to go out with Nohara Rin tonight.

  With this intensity, he would be exhausted over the weekend, and it would take several days to recover.

  "Sharingan, Sharingan," Obito kept chanting in his mind, eager to unlock the Uchiha bloodline."

  "Teacher Makoto, what about the fifty that I get by default at the start of the match?" Might Gai asked, looking expectant.

  "Reduced to forty," Makoto replied.

  For the sake of balance, he couldn't remove it completely for now, as Might Gai's Taijutsu is much stronger than Obito's.

  Although it wasn't completely removed, it was reduced by ten, which pleased Might Gai.

  "Not to worry; you can offset the questions through exercise. You can offset up to 60% of the questions this way. Three hundred push-ups can offset one question, and other exercises can be used as well," Makoto added.

  For every hit, two questions were added, significantly increasing the number of questions. Makoto decided to allow them to use training to offset the questions, increasing the pressure on them to train even harder and unlock more potential. At the same time, this served as motivation for them to exercise more, effectively achieving two goals at once.

  After all, the original purpose of answering questions was to improve their knowledge and learning, not just as a form of punishment.

  "Offset sixty percent," Obito's eyes lit up when he heard this. However, when he learned that he had to do 300 push-ups to offset just one question, he felt a great deal of pressure.

  "Three hundred a question? Hahaha!" Might Gai burst into laughter.

  Looking at Might Gai, who was laughing wildly, Obito was inspired. He calmly said, "Teacher Makoto, the purpose of using training to offset questions is to help us achieve better results. It should be based on individual progress, not a fixed number."

He didn't want to tackle a mountain of questions alone.

  Makoto considered Obito's point and thought it made sense. He proposed, "If that's the case, Akai, you need to do a thousand to reduce one question."

  Might Gai looked at Obito with a puzzled expression, and the smile on his face froze.

  "Gai, I understand that you're eager for more challenging training, right? You don't need to thank me," Obito said with a smile, giving a thumbs-up to Might Gai.

  "Well, Obito, you must also be eager for an all-out battle," Might Gai said with a serious face as he began to warm up, preparing for a serious fight.

  The battle ended after seven minutes.

  Makoto announced the results: "Obito has 100 questions, and Gai has 20 questions."

  "I know, Obito, you want more topics to study, right? You don't need to thank me," Might Gai said, flashing his bright white teeth and giving a thumbs-up.

  *Ting*

  Obito suddenly wished he could go back in time seven minutes and prevent himself from suggesting this. But now they were both in the same boat.

  There were so many questions that it was impossible to complete them all in one day. They could only offset a portion of the training and save the rest for later.

  There were so many questions that they couldn't finish them in a day. They would have to use training to offset some of the questions.

  Since Nohara Rin had mentioned wanting to hang out with Kakashi, Obito asked Might Gai if he wanted to join them.

  It was no longer a date between him and Nohara Rin, and Might Gai and Kakashi had a good relationship. So he might as well invite him.

  To his surprise, Might Gai declined, explaining that he had planned a night run with Shisui to exercise.

  However, while they were walking that evening, they ran into Shisui and Might Gai who were out for a run.

  "Shisui, believe me. Try tights like mine next time. They are perfect for exercise," Might Gai suggested, trying to convince Shisui to wear the green tights he had on.

  Shisui looked at Might Gai posing in his green tights and quickly shook his head, finding the idea too odd.

  "Who's with Gai?" Kakashi asked, seeing someone next to Might Gai whom he didn't recognize.

  "Our Uchiha prodigy, someone more talented than you," Obito teased.

  Kakashi replied, "Ah, another Uchiha prodigy. Because one wasn't enough, right?"
