Exiting the Hokage Tower, Gojo Kaigetsu smiled and walked towards Konoha Hospital. From a distance, he waved at Guy, whose arms were wrapped in bandages.

"Yo! Guy, how's your recovery coming along?"

Might Guy, having spotted Gojo Kaigetsu, froze. He quickly turned his body, feigning ignorance, and made a dash for the hospital entrance.

The painful experience on the training grounds had given him a psychological scar regarding the Hokage's advisor.

Was that even human?

In eight seconds, he'd been elbowed over twenty times, the speed so fast that even with the Sixth Gate open, he couldn't react, only managing to cross his arms in defense. He'd been elbowed into unconsciousness, forcefully deactivating the Eight Gates.

Even his hospital nightmares were haunted by flickering black elbow strikes.

Such a Hokage advisor... was utterly scary.

And! And he was a Chunin, right?! A Chunin like that?!

Even Might Guy, a taijutsu specialist, knew the general upper and lower limits of Chunin abilities. He was well aware that in the eyes of others, Gojo Kaigetsu was perceived as an ordinary Chunin.

He'd believed that with the Sixth Gate open, he was invincible amongst Chunin, but he hadn't expected someone like Gojo Kaigetsu to be even more ferocious.

In the year Konoha 51, for the first time...

"This kid, why does he run away at the sight of me?"

Gojo Kaigetsu glanced around, noticing that no one was paying attention to him. He quietly activated Blue, his figure flickering before appearing behind Guy. He raised his hand and clapped him heavily on the shoulder.

"Guy~ Your advisor is greeting you. Isn't it a bit rude to just run off without a word?"

"Ah... Gojo-sensei... I didn't notice you waving at me just now."

Might Guy's heart pounded. He and Gojo Kaigetsu had been at least a hundred meters apart! Or had he seen wrong? How did he get behind him so fast...

"Guy, I paid your hospital bills and even applied for a monthly stipend of 200,000 ryō for you from the Hokage. Are you sure you want to upset me?"

Hearing the figure of 200,000 ryō, Guy's eyes widened. He stopped in his tracks, the muscles in his injured arm suddenly feeling much lighter.

Grinning, he revealed his pearly whites. "R-Really? 200,000 ryō? Gojo-sensei, if you have any requests, please don't hesitate to ask. The youthful Green Beast of the Might family never fears hardship."

"Actually, it's nothing much. I just wanted to take you for a spin, to see how your dear friend Kakashi is doing on set."

"Kakashi? On set? What happened to him?"

"You don't know yet? Your dear friend is preparing to debut as a Konoha idol!"

A short while later, Gojo Kaigetsu led Might Guy to the outdoor set constructed in the Land of Snow. Many Konoha villagers, with time on their hands, had gathered to watch. Konoha fan children, with snack trays hanging from their necks, weaved through the crowd, selling treats.

Among the onlookers, Gojo Kaigetsu even spotted his old acquaintance, Genzo, enjoying the show with a bag of sunflower seeds.

Travelers with temporary green cards and immigrants with permanent green cards were also present.
