Chapter 14: Chapter 14:- Who Beat You Up?
[🎉 Shoutout to LUX for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]
Might Guy, a guy who doesn't even know basic ninjutsu, actually beat Uchiha Ryosuke, the grandson of the Great Elder, to a bruised and battered state. This really made them furious.
Although Uchiha Ryosuke's strength isn't much, his parents sacrificed themselves for the clan. How could they tolerate someone bullying their own like this?
What's more, the other party beat Uchiha Ryosuke until his face was black and blue. This was already an insult to the Uchiha clan.
Immediately, an Uchiha clan member jumped out. "How dare you, Might Guy! To actually assault an Uchiha clan member, come with us to the Konoha Police Force and accept punishment!"
Although the surrounding spectators knew the truth of the matter, they dared not speak out. They were also afraid of being taken to the Police Force.
Even though it was Uchiha Ryosuke who initiated the sparring request, Might Guy did indeed injure someone and even beat him quite badly.
Might Guy, seeing the situation, looked a bit flustered and quickly explained. "This was a normal sparring match between us, not a fight."
The Uchiha clan member who stepped forward didn't care about these explanations. Today, someone injured a member of the Uchiha clan, and whether or not it was a sparring agreement, the offender had to be brought to justice to restore the Uchiha clan's face.
A few Uchiha clan members surrounded Might Guy. Might Guy didn't know what to do.
Injuring an Uchiha clan member—perhaps being taken to the Konoha Police Force and punished was justified.
At this moment, Uchiha Ryosuke angrily shouted. "What are you doing? This was a sparring match I agreed upon with Guy."
Hearing this, the members of the Uchiha Police Force froze. "Ryosuke, this is no longer just your personal matter."
"Now that he has injured you, it has brought disgrace to the clan."
"If we don't bring him back, where will the clan's face be?"
Ryosuke, upon hearing this, became even angrier. "Ridiculous. If this is the Uchiha clan's so-called 'face,' then it's far too cheap. Face is something you earn for yourself, not something flaunted by the Uchiha Police Force showing off its power. This matter ends here."
The Police Force members seemed like they wanted to say more, but seeing Ryosuke's gaze, they couldn't continue.
"We'll report this matter to the captain."
Ryosuke didn't respond. What difference would it make even if they told Uchiha Fugaku? How could a Police Force like this earn respect?
The Police Force should act according to regulations. The Police Force rules probably don't include punishing someone for injuries caused during sparring, right?
After sending those people away, Ryosuke turned apologetically toward Might Guy.
"Sorry, my clan members have embarrassed you."
Might Guy waved his hand and said. "It's fine."
Since he was a child, he'd been mocked countless times for not knowing ninjutsu. He had long since developed a strong mental resilience.
Besides, this time he didn't suffer any losses. Moreover, the person in front of him was indeed beaten black and blue by him. The misunderstanding by the Uchiha Police Force was understandable.
Looking at Uchiha Ryosuke in front of him, Might Guy recalled how those Police Force members had addressed this young man.
"Uchiha Ryosuke, is it okay if I address you like this?"
"Of course, it's fine." Ryosuke waved his hand, even feeling that the relationship wasn't close enough. "From now on, just call me Ryosuke."
Building a good relationship might allow him to learn the Eight Gates later. If the relationship wasn't good, how could the other party teach him?
"Then I'll call you Ryosuke from now on. Don't be so formal. We're practically peers, right? Call me Guy from now on, my friends call me that." Might Guy smiled as he spoke.
"Alright," Ryosuke nodded slightly.
The friend he mentioned must be Kakashi. Guy lacked talent in ninjutsu. Most people his age looked down on him, mocking him for their own amusement.
For certain reasons, he was fortunate to become friends with Kakashi. Perhaps his only friend.
And the Eight Gates Kakashi knew must have been taught to him by Guy.
Originally, Kakashi didn't know the Eight Gates. If he got closer to Guy, wouldn't he be able to learn the Eight Gates? It wasn't just for the Eight Gates—Ryosuke also greatly admired Guy.
A Konoha civilian ninja, without a protagonist's aura, without a kekkei genkai, without ninjutsu talent, yet he still became the strongest in the ninja world.
Although opening the Eight Gates was like a burning matchstick with a short peak period, that didn't detract from its brilliance in the slightest.

After parting with Guy, Ryosuke returned directly to the Uchiha clan's territory.
His body hurt so much—what was the point of strolling around? Of course, he should go back and apply some medicinal wine to recover faster, then get beaten again to improve his physical attributes.
The stronger his physical attributes, the greater his strength after learning the Eight Gates. With a better physique, the harm caused by opening the Eight Gates would also be reduced.
Unlocking the earlier gates only provided limited strength increases and placed a small burden on the body. But the sixth gate, or even the seventh gate, was not to be considered lightly. It not only burdened the body but also shortened lifespan.
As a transmigrator with two system powers, including the "Many Children, Many Blessings" system, how could he allow his lifespan to be shortened?
He had to live long and prosper! So improving his physique was absolutely necessary.
According to his estimation, if his physique became strong enough, opening the seventh gate of the Eight Gates might rival the power of Guy in his "Red Hot Blooded" form in the original story.
He just didn't know how high his physical attributes needed to be to open the seventh gate.
Ryoosuke searched his memory and found medicinal wine in the living room. Then he removed his clothes and began applying it to the bruised areas on his body.
While improving his strength felt great, this auto-training system requiring him to get beaten to grow stronger really seemed absurd. It might as well be renamed the "Get Beaten to Grow Stronger System" or the "Masochist System."
When applying it to his face, the pain made him cry out in agony. "Ow! So painful..."
Guy really showed no mercy—so single-minded, perhaps that's why his taijutsu was so formidable. But this was his own request, so there was no room for complaint.
At that moment, a figure walked in. When they saw Ryosuke's bruised face and him applying medicinal wine, their expression turned furious.
"Ryoosuke, what happened?"
"Who beat you up?"
