Naruto hodgepodge

Early in the morning, Might Guy got up excitedly. Today he was going to be promoted to Jonin, so he decided to do some youthful morning exercises first.

However, when he walked to a training ground he often went to, the scene in front of him made him slightly stunned. A young man named Rock Lee, wearing a light green jacket, was concentrating on his own training. Sweat slid down his forehead and dripped onto the training ground, leaving a series of marks of hard work.

Kai was stunned as he looked at Rock Lee's focused and determined figure. Deep in Kai's memory, a memory of the two of them quietly emerged. It was about a young man named Rock Lee and the heartwarming scene of their first meeting.

Time goes back to a spring afternoon a year ago. The sun shines through the green leaves. Kai meets Kakashi who is free and is chatting him up. At this moment, a loud laughter breaks the silence around him and attracts his attention.

Not far away, a group of children formed a circle, with a thin figure, Rock Lee, standing in the middle, with his head down. "Rock Lee, forget about being a ninja, it's incredible that you can get into this school." The children's words were like sharp blades, ruthlessly cutting Rock Lee's self-esteem and dreams. In the end, Rock Lee covered his ears with his hands tightly to escape the ridicule, trying to isolate the harsh laughter.

Kai's eyes instantly became soft and firm. He seemed to see his own shadow in the past, the persistence and desire for his dream. "Rock Lee... a child who only knows physical skills and is not as good as ordinary people?" Kai thought silently in his heart. Without a moment's hesitation, he took a step and ran towards the child. As he approached, Rock Lee's trembling figure froze in place.

But when he faced Xiao Li, he said something else: "Young man, as long as you work harder, you will become a great ninja." These words, like a ray of warm sunshine in spring, penetrated the haze in Xiao Li's heart and illuminated his way forward.

Xiao Li looked up at Kai, his eyes sparkling with an incredible light. At that moment, he seemed to hear the voice deep in his heart echoing: "Hard work is useful", "As long as you work hard, you can become a genius." These two sentences, like seeds, took root in his heart and became the source of motivation for his unremitting struggle in the future.

From that day on, Kai began to pay attention to the growth and progress of the child named Rock Lee. Kai would always come to the training ground at different times, watching from afar or up close, silently observing every progress and every challenge of Rock Lee.

"Come back later." Kai left the training ground and went to run 10 laps in Konoha first.

Kai had enough mission experience, and recently he mastered the two chakra attribute changes of lightning and fire to obtain the qualification of jonin. Today he finally became a jonin, and his companions congratulated him. Kai took over the jonin's vest, but unfortunately, his most wanted partner Kakashi did not come, and he missed Kakashi in his heart.

Once upon a time, Kai was a child that even the Ninja School refused to admit. Little Kai rode on his father's shoulders and searched for his name in front of the bulletin board again and again. The names on the small bulletin board could be seen at a glance, but Kai, encouraged by his father, checked one by one until everyone left. Kai still couldn't find his name.

Although he was in tears, he did not give up. He ran around the playground with a banner that read "Run 500 laps to get a make-up." This was what Kai thought of as self-discipline at the time. He could not run any longer after running 235 laps and fell to the ground.

After being laughed at by the onlookers, his father punched Kai. Kai apologized for his behavior. He was 5 years old but couldn't even run 500 laps. However, his father hit him not because he didn't do it, but because he used the wrong way of self-discipline. Running laps can make up for it, that is a wish, not self-discipline.

The self-discipline that Dad talked about refers to deliberately adding a punishment that cannot be achieved when challenging certain difficulties, forcing oneself to the end of the road, and making rules that belong only to oneself, so that one can be motivated to complete the challenge seriously. Even if you fail, you can make progress by accepting your own punishment. This is the essence of self-discipline that Dad taught Kai. In the end, the two hugged and cried. This was originally a very touching scene, but it was disgusting to others, especially the tights they wore. Every time at this time, Dad would thank those people for their support.

However, the voices of two Chunins were particularly harsh. Although his father was grateful for their support as always, Kai was very upset with the two ninjas who insulted his father. After his father left, Kai threw stones at their heads. He didn't allow anyone to laugh at his father, but he was only five years old and naturally had to be bullied. At this time, five-year-old Kakashi appeared and easily defeated the two Chunins, leaving behind a sentence: "You are useless. Your father was laughed at like that, but you can't even fight back."

Kai looked at Kakashi and his father White Fang leaving together, feeling lonely and unwilling. In the hospital, he asked his father when youth would end. His father told him that youth never ends. Kai asked unconvinced, "Will it not end when you die?" His father said that was the climax of youth, the most exciting time. Kai thought his father's idea was too abnormal. Who can guarantee that he will always believe that youth can be invincible until death?

Just like before, Akai was defeated in front of the two Chunins, but his father told him that the real victory was not to be competitive, but to protect the most important thing for oneself. And Akai was the youth that his father wanted to protect, and the father and son hugged and cried again.

The next day, Akai's name appeared on the supplementary enrollment notice board, and the father and son hugged and cried again, this time with tears of joy. However, there were people talking about it, and Akai and his father gave a thumbs up to passers-by at the same time. Although he entered the ninja school, Akai could not keep up with the progress of others in ninjutsu and genjutsu, and soon became the last one. He could only focus on physical skills. He decided to use the self-discipline method taught by his father to practice physical skills to the extreme. If he couldn't run 500 laps, he would walk 500 laps upside down, and if he couldn't do it, he would do 500 push-ups.

Kai seemed to be struggling with the number 500, but for some reason, he was a little scared when he saw Kakashi. When his father found out, he hit him with another iron fist of love, which taught Kai the "Kai Tong Kai". His father asked him to challenge Kakashi. Kai knew that Kakashi was a genius and that he couldn't win with his current strength, so he decided to use the challenge of Kakashi as a punishment, and he set various self-restraints for himself. With this punishment, Kai was able to complete various challenges with a number of 500, and his classmates gradually began to take him seriously.

However, when he was challenging himself to climb up and down the mountain 500 times, Kai saw Kakashi who was trying to climb with one hand. Kakashi's sweat even dripped onto Kai's face. Kai was terrified that a genius was working so hard, so how could he surpass him? Then he had to work harder than Kakashi. He had to work ten times harder to keep up with Kakashi's pace, otherwise he would challenge Kakashi.

He started the 5,000 lap challenge. He ran from morning to dusk and then to night. Every time he was about to reach his limit, he seemed to see Kakashi running not far ahead of him. With his perseverance in constantly gritting his teeth and breaking through his limit, he completed the 5,000 lap challenge. It was with these breakthroughs that he finally challenged Kakashi. Kakashi refused again and again at first, not wanting to waste his energy.

So Gai challenged Kakashi when he was eating, bathing, or using the toilet. However, Gai accidentally saw Kakashi's big acorn, and Gai also let Kakashi see his small acorn, and the way he opened his clothes. Gai's unremitting persistence made Kakashi finally unable to bear it and finally accepted his challenge.

Since the beginning of the challenge, Kai has been losing, even the fist and kick contest. But Kai still refused to admit defeat, he always wanted to win a round in some way, until dusk, they started the rock-paper-scissors duel, and it lasted until Kai graduated successfully. After graduation, he began to do tasks with youthful vigor, and then actively participated in the Chunin exam. After he kicked Obito away twice, he successfully upgraded to Chunin.

He can now perform higher-level tasks, but his father is still doing D-level tasks, such as catching cats and weeding. Kai begins to misunderstand, is this his father's youth?

Soon, his father was facing the task of being laid off. In order to keep his job, his father even begged humbly. Kai felt very embarrassed, but Kakashi said that Kai's father was the most handsome ninja he had ever seen.

When he got home at night, his father took him to the mountain. Kai then knew that his father had such a powerful move hidden. It was the only move that his father had practiced every day for 20 years. The Eight Gates of Dunjia was also the only move that his father could teach him. This move would become Kai's most special move in the future. His father told him that when using this move, he must add a strict condition, that is, he must use it at the moment of protecting the most important thing.

During a mission, Kai's team met the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Shadow Village. When the team was about to be wiped out, Kai's father came. Kai exclaimed, what is a Genin like his father doing here? He thought that his father could not compete with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. But his father's tall figure stood in front of Kai, and now was the time to protect the most important thing for him, even at the cost of his life.

Dad opened the eighth gate and turned the Seven Ninja Swordsmen into the Three Lucky Treasures. This is Kai's father Matt Dai. He has the greatest influence on Kai. He saw the shining points in Kai, taught Kai the training rules of self-discipline, taught Kai the Eight Gates, and passed on his youth and passion to Kai.

His lifelong rival Kakashi became depressed because of the death of his relatives and companions, but Kai had already regarded Kakashi as a close friend. Seeing Kakashi like this, he was very worried, so he often secretly followed him. In a mission, Kakashi was distracted in the battle with his opponent and was almost killed. Kai arrived in time to save Kakashi. Kakashi couldn't do this. For Kakashi's safety, Kai told the Fourth Hokage Minato about Kakashi's situation truthfully, and immediately decided to transfer Kakashi to the Anbu directly under him, and let him serve as Kushina's bodyguard, which made Kakashi a lot smarter. But on the night of Kushina's birth, Obito launched the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and both the master and the master's wife died, which made Kakashi fall into the ice cellar again, and the situation was more serious than before.

Kai greeted Kakashi from behind, and Kakashi even took out his kunai, exuding a strong murderous aura. Kai kept trying various ways to lead Kakashi out of the darkness, but Kakashi became darker and darker.

He was deeply moved by Kakashi's ruthlessness and killing intent in the last mission. He had no choice but to decide that he must join the Anbu to save Kakashi this time.

In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage watched as Kai, who had just become a Jonin, came to see him.

In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage stared at the newly promoted Jonin Gai, who eagerly requested: "Please let me join the Anbu!" After that, Gai kowtowed repeatedly and said firmly: "For Kakashi, this is the best way." That crazy move made the Third Hokage frown and couldn't bear to watch.

The Third Hokage spoke earnestly. "Kai, I know you care about Kakashi, but you have to understand that your strengths cannot be fully utilized in the Anbu."

Kai suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with determination: "No, don't worry about me, Third Generation. As Kakashi's partner, I..."

The Third Hokage interrupted him. "Shut up, you are not fit for ANBU."

Kai's heart sank, his eyes turned red, and two lines of tears silently slid down, revealing deep sorrow in his silence. He slowly left the office, "suitable, unsuitable" echoing in his mind, his steps heavy and confused.

Just after walking a short distance, the sound of footsteps made Kai stop. Danzo and two ANBU members came towards him with a solemn atmosphere.

"Um, Lord Danzo," Kai mustered up the courage to speak.

"What?" Danzo asked in a cold tone.

"Please let me join Danzo's Anbu." There was a slight tremor in Kai's voice.

Danzo glanced at him and said calmly: "Yours is not enough."

Kai was confused for a moment, his mind full of doubts: "What... not enough?" Then Kai did not give up and continued to pester, but was interrupted by Danzo's cold voice.

"Shut up, you are not fit for the Root." Danzo said, and left with his men, leaving Kai alone there, full of confusion and unwillingness.

I was sad all day, the shadow of Kakashi kept turning around in my head, but I couldn't come up with a solution. The sunset in the sky had quietly slipped away. Hey, my heart of stone, it's time to go to the training ground to burn it and let the heat of youth thaw it!

As soon as he stepped into the training ground, Xiao Li was still integrated with the training ground, competing with the wooden stake day and night! Kai's heart was warmed up, and he immediately couldn't hold it anymore. He walked over with big strides and patted Xiao Li on the shoulder: "Hey, Xiao Li, your enthusiasm for training in the winter is hotter than the summer sun! Do you want to join me, Teacher Kai, and spend your youth to the end of Konoha?"

When Xiao Li heard this, he was so excited that he almost took off: "Teacher Kai, are you serious? I am willing! I am willing to work with you to sprinkle sweat all over every corner and let the air of Konoha be filled with the smell of youth!"

"Haha, good boy! From today on, you are my disciple! Youth never fades!" Kai's laughter was hearty, as if it could dispel all the haze, and even the air in the training ground became youthful.

Xiao Li was so touched by this passion that he held Kai's hand tightly and shed tears of youth: "Woo woo, Teacher Kai, youth will never fade!"

Thus, the frustrated Kai and Rock Lee formed an indissoluble bond on the training ground, and the Konoha Youth Group officially debuted.

(The writing style is mainly based on the timeline of arrangement. It is not time for the youth group to start cheating yet. I will give a logical cheating later.)
