"The Konoha Ninja Academy Summer Camp of the 51st year, under the meticulous guidance of Principal Gojo, and through the diligent efforts of our instructors and students, has successfully concluded!"
"We have achieved our goals of safety, cultural exchange, excellence, and fostering the Will of Fire. Now, as the Summer Camp draws to a close, I, on behalf of the Academy, express my deepest gratitude to all participating students and staff! And my warmest congratulations to the students who achieved top rankings!"
Iruka Umino, holding his speech manuscript, droned on from the makeshift podium in the Konoha Forest, his words barely reaching the exhausted academy students below.
The Summer Camp had been incredibly demanding.
Perhaps even more so than the Academy graduation exams. Only prodigies like Itachi Uchiha still seemed relatively unaffected.
Even Izumi Uchiha looked exhausted, her perseverance fueled solely by the Will of Fire.
"Now, let us welcome Konoha's legendary Principal, Gojo Kaigetsu, to deliver the closing address!"
Gojo Kaigetsu!
Cheers erupted from the students, their exhaustion momentarily forgotten as they straightened up, their voices filled with excitement.
Even the usually boisterous "school bullies" were silent, their gazes fixed expectantly on the blindfolded figure approaching the podium.
Gojo Kaigetsu's Ethics class had undeniably been a success.
Loyalty indoctrination should start from a young age!
These "child soldiers" had been thoroughly instilled with devotion to the Will of Fire and, more importantly, to Advisor Gojo.
The rarely seen Gojo Kaigetsu was a legend in their eyes, the man who had declared, "Konoha is the most exceptional village, and Konoha ninja the most outstanding." Such inspiring words!
They were witnessing history! They were creating stories to tell!
From now on, they could brag about having personally witnessed Advisor Gojo's speech.
Excitement spread like wildfire.
This was precisely Gojo Kaigetsu's goal. Konoha's collective mindset was shifting.
It wasn't his speeches or pronouncements that were inspiring, but Konoha itself.
The villagers of Konoha, having endured the humiliation of two wars, knelt and pleaded, "Please, give us Soldier Pills!"
Gojo Kaigetsu, arms raised, declared, "Let's go take them!"
In such a climate, anyone in Konoha who desired Soldier Pills would follow him. Any speech, any declaration, as long as it aligned with this proactive, assertive stance, would be met with fervent support.
Gojo Kaigetsu ascended the podium, holding a blank sheet of paper. He pretended to read from it before handing it to Iruka Umino.
It was a subtle display, setting the tone for his unique speaking style.
"First, congratulations to all the students who passed the trials. You are destined for greatness! And for those who fell short, don't be discouraged. With enough effort, even late bloomers can achieve great things!"
"I've heard... some have suggested different assessment criteria for those with and without Kekkei Genkai."
"Let me be clear. In the ninja world, there are only two outcomes: persevere and excel, or give up and be eliminated. That's the harsh reality. No one will lower their standards for you just because you lack a Kekkei Genkai. Even if the Academy did, would those Kumogakure ninja, who constantly threaten Konoha, offer such leniency?"
