106 The Eight Gates...
Chapter 107
…
After that episode of me panicking I have my mask back on. I am at the best performance possible at the moment. I was truly repressing my feelings too much… I guess... I was overdoing it…
*sigh*... after that little dose of Genjutsu I am back to normal…
….
It seems like the 'burst' lasted just about an hour. Not really enough time for anyone to even take notice of stuff like this. After all it could have been just an experiment gone wrong. After all, who are they going to question.
….
Then after another hour of me thinking back on the truly happy time I had during the Genjutsu. I should regulate that so I don't overuse it or get addicted to it. I should only do it once a year during random intervals whenever I feel like I need it. Since making a habit of anything can be used as a weakness in this sh*ty world.
Then I sat on my porch while thinking of my future plans. That is when I sense that Guy has entered my sensing range…. I see so he finally finished his mission.
When Guy arrived I noticed … that he had a nervous look on his face. Then he came in front of and started scratching the back of his head while nervously saying.
"H -Hey...Yami -sensei how was your day…"
I just smile at him and say. "Ah Guy… I see that it took you two whole days to finish a D rank mission."
In difficulty it was C Rank but the villagers didn't have the money to pay for a C rank so I (my clone) just made a deal with them on certain parts of the lands I would own. I will boost the economy on there like I did in many other farming villages. My VERY basic economic knowledge from the future is really revolutionary here.
Then while Guy is waiting I take out my 'original' book that I was writing in here… its name is Romeo And Juliet… but I haven't thought of a good pen name yet… maybe I won't even publish it. After all, I am flushed with cash currently, no matter how much the book makes it's still just a book.
Anyway Guy is still nervously standing waiting for my answer… if I punished him with more training he would instead like it. So I just said to him. "Come here Guy and tell me how your mission went…"
Guy almost seemed relieved but then I continued saying. "... over a cup of tea."
Immediately his face scrunches like he just ate a lemon. Yeah I know he hates my original recipe of gross but healthy tea... Guy just reluctantly accepts... not like he had a choice in the matter.
He is currently seven years old but with my training. He can currently beat anyone in Taijutsu in his group age… if Kakashi wasn't a thing he could beat anyone in his group age at a straight fight but he hasn't been able to surpass Kakashi's talent with hard work… at least not yet… I predict that at around the age of 12 Guy will be able to beat Kakashi 9/10 times in a fight.
But even though Guy seems like a knucklehead. He is still helping Kakashi cope with his father's recent suicide. Truly a sad thing, it's really a shame for a ninja like Sakumo to die. If only he had more uses to me, I would have botherd to save him.

I just look at Guy moving to attack me. It has already been a year since I started training him. When he gets close to me I can hear him say. "3rd GATE OPEN."
Oh so he is now able to open a new gate and just as his speed increases he comes towards me.
I just simply side step. Guy then turns around and tries to dropkick me but I just jump back and his kick hits the ground.
*boom*
A small crater is created where his kick landed. And I also notice that the leg that he used to kick right now has a couple of very big muscle strains. But Guy just winces a little at the pain and still charges towards me like a bull.
Ok that is enough now.
<Shunshin>
I just appeared behind him in a blink and just hit the back of his neck sending a little chakra through his body and forcefully closing all of his opened gate.
If there was a competition on who held the most knowledge about the Eight Gates… I would be either the first or second… depending on how knowledgeable the creator of the technique was about what he was even doing.
Then before Guy falls in the ground I just catch him and lay him gently in the ground and start working on his injuries. Then when Guy who is still conscious asks. "How did I do this time Sensei."
I just smile and say to him. "Better than last time. But your attacks were still predictable… you couldn't strategise while under the pain of opening the Gates. But you will eventually get used to it…"
Guy just thinks back on his mistakes that he did during the fight... and nods.
…
After healing him. I just say. "Also better get ready. We have an A rank in an hour or so."
Guy immediately panicked and said. "Wait what… why didn't you say that Sensei…. and why did you even let me use my gates technique. We also haven't even gone to any B rank Missions aren't we supposed to follow some type of order."
I just sigh and say to him. "I have gone on a dozen S rank, A rank and even easy B rank missions by myself. So what are you complaining about. Plus I won't let you do all the work like I do during our C rank missions."
As soon as Guy hears the last part of what I said, he gets up and points a finger at me while saying. "AHHHH I knew you were doing that. I always thought that it was weird that you were always sleeping during any type of attack… and now you even admitted it yourself."
Guy still isn't the funny guy that he will be when he grows up… I guess I will have to teach him about other things than youth. To be honest I wasn't asleep. I just used a Genjutsu to make it seem like I was. I usually just watched him fight for entertainment.
Then I see that Guy suddenly just falls to his knees and out of breath… afterall I didn't heal his stamina.
Then I just pat his head and transfer chakra to him… giving him some energy to move. Then I said to him."You don't really need to pack anything. I have already got all of your things in a storage scroll already. You just get to the front gates and I will meet you there."
<Flying Thunder God>
Then I immediately teleport at my house and I just pack a lot of different delicious food. I am not going to eat cardboard food for nothing. This is way better… then I heard the voice of Tsume say. "So you are going on another mission."
Over the years Tsume's voice is no longer angry or arrogant. She has truly changed a lot and definitely won't be the same as she was during canon. I just turn around and look at her…

AUTHOR NOTE:
(The MC is calmer and back at wearing his mask like normal. Soon I will start transitioning to Hachi's POV (Yami's son) a little more since they are more interesting and he will have certain character developments. Though first we will see Yami keep using his Charm and Charisma to manipulate people a little more and then we will do the transition. Since Yami's POV have started getting stale since he is so powerful now and most of the time he will be either thinking of plans or chilling or doing both. Hachi will have to have a couple more character development moments before he starts truly resembling his father. (He will RESEMBLE Yami he won't be his clone. He will just have certain quirks that Yami has…. Whether those are good or bad it depends.)
