Ninja Recruitment System

Chapter 26: The Bet



Perhaps he was very confident with the pills that he had personally made, or perhaps the pill itself tasted very good. Guy ate one after another, and after a short while, he had eaten them all.

After eating, Guy immediately stood up and then extended his thumb to Zhang Miao, making a victory pose.

At the same time, the system notification sounded in Zhang Miao's mind.

"[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the official showdown. You have obtained 5-star Jonin-level - Might Guy Ninja Fragment x10! ]"

Hearing the system notification, Zhang Miao immediately raised his eyebrows and muttered softly.

"Well.. we'll find out soon. 3... 2... 1..."

Just as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Guy, who was still in his victory pose, suddenly turned pale. Then he fell to the ground. A Pile of foam came out from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao shook his head helplessly.

"You lose, Acorn guy!"

After saying that, Zhang Miao was ready to leave, but before he could take a step, he felt that his pants were getting pulled.

He looked back and saw the teary-eyed Guy biting his lips to prevent himself from crying. He slowly said some words to Zhang Miao.

"My name is not Acorn guy! I am Might Guy!"

Looking at Guy's despondent look, Zhang Miao immediately began to reflect on himself. Did he go a little too far?

After thinking for a while, Zhang Miao found that he had indeed gone a little too far, so he secretly apologized to Guy in his heart.

"I'm sorry Guy. I did this to collect your ninja fragments. I'm really sorry for making you suffer!"

After apologizing in his heart, Zhang Miao nodded to Guy who was lying on the ground.

"Well, let's just stop having food contests for next time. Let's do other stuff. Oh, I know. If you can walk around the village on your hand, without falling even once, then you win. I even will call you the Noble Green Beast of Konoha from then on!."

"Really?"

Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Guy's eyes lit up again. He was afraid that Zhang Miao would go back on his word, so he quickly nodded.

"Okay! It's settled. If I can't do it, I will do a thousand push-ups with one hand!"

Fukuro did not know that this was Guy's way of restraining himself, so after hearing his words, he immediately showed a speechless expression.

"This guy must be stupid!"

In Fukuro's view, even in the Anbu, there was no one who could walk around the village on their hand without falling even once. Let alone a Genin like Guy.

Fukuro felt that Zhang Miao was deliberately making things difficult for Guy, but this fool just agreed without hesitation. He seemed to be happy with the challenge.

If he wasn't a fool, then what?

Zhang Miao naturally didn't know what Fukuro was thinking. After making an agreement with Guy, he turned around to take Naruto from Fukuro's hands. Then, he raised his chin towards Fukuro.

"Fukuro, send him to the hospital. I will hold the fort for you!"

Fukuro knew Zhang Miao's temper. He would not go back on his words. In addition, Konoha's hospital was nearby, so Fukuro immediately nodded. Then, he picked up Guy and disappeared in a flash.

After Fukuro disappeared, Guy's voice came from the distance.

"Ryunosuke, thank you..."

Hearing Guy's words of gratitude, Zhang Miao didn't know how to feel.

"Wow, you still want to thank me after being cheated? This guy is simply hopeless!"

With that, Zhang Miao carried Naruto back to his room.

In fact, Zhang Miao did not know that the real reason why Guy thanked him was that he gave Guy hope - a hope of victory.

After these few days of confrontation, Guy deeply realized that in terms of appetite alone, he might not be able to beat Zhang Miao in his life, but Zhang Miao refused to compete with him, which made Guy very desperate.

The most important thing was that as the Noble Green Beast of Konoha, Guy was not willing to bully children, so he could only endure defeat after defeat!

Now that Zhang Miao had taken the initiative to propose a different contest, Guy was confident in his victory because this would be the best contest he could ever ask for. He was made for this.

Even if he failed at the beginning, as long as he worked hard, he would definitely be able to do it!

At that time, he could completely get rid of the "Acorn" nicknames. Then he would become a respected Ninja, the Noble Green Beast of Konoha - Might Guy!

Thinking of this, Guy felt his blood boil!

"Ryunosuke, thank you. I will definitely do it. I will definitely... burp..."

Fukuro: "..."

...

After sending Guy to Konoha's hospital, Fukuro returned. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Zhang Miao sitting barefoot at the door with a small branch in her mouth.

Seeing this scene, Fukuro approached Zhang Miao, sat down next to him, then asked him casually.

"Is your brother asleep?"

"Yes! But I think you should call him by his name, Naruto!"

Zhang Miao suddenly let out a long sigh.

"Sigh... Actually, I know that all of you, including Uncle Catface and Big Sis Ying, do not like him. All of you view him as a fox demon. I do not blame you for this. I only hope that you can give him a chance to prove himself. At least... well, forget it. Let's not talk about it!"

Seeing Zhang Miao suddenly stop talking and seemingly unwilling to continue this topic, Fukuro was stunned at first, but he remained silent.

After a long while, Fukuro finally opened his mouth and asked Zhang Miao, "That Genin today, do you think he can do it?"

Zhang Miao knew that Fukuro was talking about Guy, so after hearing his words, he immediately turned his head and smiled at him.

"Do you think I'm deliberately making things difficult for him? Then, do you want to make a bet?"

"A bet? You and me?"

Fukuro seemed to have not expected Zhang Miao to say this. He immediately revealed a look of surprise. Looking at his surprised expression, Zhang Miao smiled and nodded again.

"Yes. If you win, I will ask the Third to give you a transfer. That way, you won't have to stay with us all day. If I win, you have to invite Guy and me to barbecue for a meal. What do you think?"

"That's.."

Fukuro was tempted by Zhang Miao's proposal.

However, when he thought about Zhang Miao's appetite and Yakiniku Q's high price, he hesitated.

"Hmm... Should I accept it?"

Fukuro hesitated for a long time. In the end, he still felt that no one should be able to walk around Konoha on their hand. Even if there was, it would be impossible for a genin to do it!

Thinking of this, Fukuro immediately nodded at Zhang Miao.

"Alright, I'll bet!"
