Naruto: Damn!!! I am OP

Chapter 40: Chapter 40 : [40] : Temporary Team-up



Shin chuckled inwardly for a while, then stood up and said,

"Alright, I'm going out to buy some ingredients. Do you guys want to come along?"

"Sure, I need to buy some ninja tools too."

Rin clapped her hands in agreement.

As someone from a civilian family, although the Ninja Academy would provide some ninja tools, she still needed to buy some after becoming a full-fledged genin.

Kurenai, on the other hand, didn't need to buy any ninja tools. Her father, Shinku Yuhi, was a Hidden Leaf Jonin, and their home was well-stocked with shurikens, kunai, and other necessities. However, at this moment, she naturally couldn't just watch Shin and Rin go shopping together.

"I also have something I want to buy."

Seeing that both Rin and Kurenai agreed, Shin turned to look at Kakashi, who was planning to go back to his room, and said,

"Kakashi, you come along too."

Kakashi lazily said,

"I don't need anything."

Shin lifted his chin and said,

"It's precisely because you don't need to buy anything that I'm asking you to help carry things. I need to buy a lot of ingredients now."

Graduation from the Ninja Academy also meant that the Third Great Ninja War was approaching.

Stocking up before prices soared was a given, and besides, he had always relied on time acceleration for training, so his demand for various supplies was much greater than that of ordinary people.

"...Huh?"

Kakashi's face fell.

He looked at Shin with a look that clearly said, 'Where is your conscience?'

Watching Kakashi's helpless but forced obedience to his older brother, Shin, Rin couldn't help but suppress a smile, and Kurenai's expression next to her was also a bit comical.

Although Kakashi was only a year younger than Shin, Shin had grown faster due to his time acceleration training, and now looked about twelve or thirteen, taller than Kakashi by more than half a head. He looked as if he was often bullied.

"Alright, stop nagging, let's go."

Shin patted Kakashi's head and walked out the door.

Kakashi didn't dodge, just showing a look of utter despair, following him as if he had lost all dreams.

The group of four soon arrived on the street.

Shin calling Kakashi along had another reason: it would look a bit strange for him to be out with two girls alone, and if Kurenai's father or Rin's father saw them, it would probably be troublesome. Although these two probably couldn't beat him anymore... this wasn't really a question of whether he could beat them or not.

With Kakashi present, the four of them together looked completely normal. Even if they encountered something along the way, at most they would just be scrutinized.

Soon.

Shin purchased a batch of supplies, filling four bags. He and Kakashi each carried two. Rin and Kurenai tried to help Shin carry things, but Shin smilingly refused. This scene made Kakashi want to complain again.

And just as the group continued down the street, some noise from ahead caught Shin's attention.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I won't make a mistake again. Please take me on this mission again..."

Might Duy stood in front of a Chunin, looking incredibly nervous, his voice full of apologies as he continuously apologized to the other party.

However, the Chunin frowned and said,

"It's not the first time. Your words are no longer credible. I absolutely cannot take you along again."

"Please don't do that."

Might Duy, seeing that pleading was useless, bowed down to the other person in the street, saying,

"I will work harder than ever to complete it. Please trust me one more time."

The Chunin, seeing Might Duy kneeling and pleading, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but after a brief hesitation, he still said,

"Sorry, go find someone else."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly left.

"Please don't do this, give me another chance..."

Might Duy stretched out his hand, trying to stop the other party, but the Chunin quickly disappeared after a leap.

Shin, Kurenai, and the others happened to be passing by and saw this scene.

Kurenai looked at Might Duy and whispered with some hesitation,

"He seems to be... Guy's father, right?"

Rin murmured,

"It seems he's in trouble."

She could probably tell that he had been kicked out of his team. She couldn't think of how to help him at the moment, as she was just a freshly graduated Genin.

"..."

Kakashi looked at Might Duy, and the image of Guy flashed through his mind. He also thought about how he himself had broken up with ninja teams multiple times, but his situation and Might Duy's were not the same.

What confused Kakashi was that Might Duy was just a Genin, and a very clumsy one who often caused trouble, while Guy entered the academy as an alternate student. Yet Guy kept challenging him, aiming to surpass him, and Might Duy even seemed to believe Guy could surpass him.

He didn't quite understand where the father and son's confidence came from.

But then again.

Guy's talent in taijutsu was indeed astonishing. He was the strongest Genin he had ever fought. Even with poor ninjutsu talent, he should still have hope of becoming a Chunin.

Just as Kakashi was thinking, Shin suddenly walked towards Might Duy, causing Kurenai, Rin, and the others to look over.

"Duy-senpai, you seem to be in trouble..."

Shin walked to Might Duy's side and spoke to him.

Might Duy was looking in the direction where the Chunin had left. Hearing Shin's words, he turned and looked at Shin. He quickly recognized Shin's identity and said,

"It's you. In the blink of an eye, you seem to have grown a lot taller, even taller than Guy."

His words carried a hint of surprise, but his expression still looked a bit troubled.

Prices were soaring now, and it was difficult to make a living without going on missions. As a Genin, it was almost impossible for him to get missions alone. Being kicked out of his ninja team was undoubtedly a blow to him.

Thinking of this.

Might Duy sighed and said,

"I made some mistakes before and was kicked out of the team by the Chunin. I was planning to come and plead again today, but I still couldn't get their forgiveness. You must be laughing at me."

Shin looked at Might Duy, thought for a moment, and said,

"Duy-senpai, do you need to form a ninja team? If so, I might be able to help."

Might Duy looked at Shin with a slight surprise and said,

"You must have just graduated, right? A four-man team led by a Jonin instructor probably wouldn't let someone like me join."

Shin shook his head with a smile and said,

"No, my situation is special. I don't have a team right now. If you don't mind, Senpai, we can form a temporary team."

Having learned many key points of the Eight Inner Gates from Might Duy and successfully trained them, he naturally couldn't ignore the troubles Might Duy was facing. Kakashi, Rin, and Kurenai's teams couldn't possibly take Might Duy in, so it could only be him who formed a team with him.

Of course.

Repaying his kindness was one aspect. Another was that going on missions with Might Duy was quite safe. In some ways, it might even be safer than going out with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru's strength hadn't reached its peak yet. If he were to face the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist alone, escaping would be his limit. It would be impossible for him to kill four and severely injure three.

But Might Duy could do it!

Might Duy's Eight Inner Gates unleashed at full power would certainly not be as powerful as Guy's, but it would definitely surpass Kage-level. It could be said that going on missions with Might Duy would give them a chance to survive even if they encountered the Third Raikage or the Third Tsuchikage.

The probability of such a situation occurring was also extremely low.

Under normal circumstances, if Might Duy opened seven gates, even if he didn't reach Kage-level, he would at least have Jonin-level strength. Coupled with his own strength, dealing with ordinary situations would be more than enough.

While Shin finished his thoughts.

Some of the surrounding ninjas all showed looks of surprise.

Someone... actually willing to actively team up with 'Perennial Genin' Might Duy?!
