The Strongest Hokage

ond Stage and assisting Gai in his training.

Gai was on his way to become a Jonin, as for Kakashi, just like the original, he became the disciple of Narutos father, Minato Namikaze.

Although, Naruto choose Jiraiya to become his master in the end.

Ranks dont matter much in this world, power is everything.

In a forest.

One person was throwing a punch after another, struggling to connect any attack.

Every fist had the power to shatter a tree.

However, no matter how many punched he threw, that person stood still in his place, waving his hand and blocking every one of his attacks.

“Not fast enough, and youre also leaving a lot of openings.”

Naito said to Gai, who was attacking him. He looked a little bit bored blocking his punches. At the same time, he pointed out the flaws in Gais attack.

Although Gais attack was almost like a storm, against Naito, this speed was very slow, the same as the speed of a climbing snail.

Humph! Humph!

Gai gasped fiercely, but he didnt look tired, he actually was extremely excited.

“Naito-Sensei is really too strong, but Youth wont be defeated!”

“…”

Yuu Naito looked at Gai with a dull expression. He always hoped that Gai will eventually stop saying this nonsense!

It really makes him feel like he wants to vomit. Although he really respected both Dai and Gai for their hard work, he could never accept the amount of gibberish these two shared!

“Okay, lets stop here today, you need to work on the few points I told you about, and then master them all.”

Gai took a few steps back and bowed to Naito, the former nodded at him, then left.

Gai looked at Naitos back with a stern look, he nodded firmly, then he roared and recontinued his training, regardless of the physical fatigue he was feeling.

Step by step walking far from Gai, Naito could see clearly his movements with his Ultra Perceive.

“Perhaps this what makes Dai and Gai very unique. Although I really cant hear any talking about youth from these two, its the only word that can express their passion.”

“They have the heart of a strong man, that keeps them going forward even in the hardest times, no matter how tired they are, or how hard the training is, they keep walking, step by step to reach the top of the world with their ordinary bodies.”

Naito slowly walked away while he whispered to himself, and couldnt help but think about the journey he had during his lifetime in this world.

Perhaps, what he is right now was all because of Maito Dais enlightenment.

“This is not something that can be taught in school, its something that you have or dont.”

“This is the only path to the top of the world. Even against a person like Madara, Gai didnt lose his heart and fought on until the very end.”

“This is the true meaning of having a strong heart, not the one that despises everything, but the one that can transcend anything, and firmly believes that it can overcome everything!”

Just when Naitos heart flashed through this last thought, his soul and will seemed to have a faint sublimation, and his Sage Mode silently ushered in the final transformation.
