Chapter 44: Naruto, Peak Human, Ch 22.2
However, compared to Li Zhenwu, a Saiyan, they didn't stand out at all...
Rock Lee finished eating, but Li Zhenwu was still munching away.
Naruto was full, yet Li Zhenwu was still focused on his food.
Even Guy Sensei finished eating, but Li Zhenwu continued!
Finally, after a long wait, Li Zhenwu reluctantly set down his bowl, patting his belly, and said, "Not bad, I'm about eighty percent full."
The ramen shop owner wiped the sweat from his forehead.
It was almost as if he couldn't keep up with Li Zhenwu's pace.
Even so, Li Zhenwu had only managed to eat to about eighty percent fullness.
"Truly the 'Konoha Monster'..." the ramen shop owner thought to himself.
After finishing their ramen, the group didn't leave; instead, they remained seated, digesting their food while chatting.
"Cousin, you're amazing! I heard you skipped another grade!" Rock Lee, feeling bloated, lay on the table, his eyes drifting to Li Zhenwu.
"Hehe, just average, third in the world," Li Zhenwu replied casually, trying to appear modest.
"Wow, Zhenwu, that's incredible!" Naruto exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with admiration for Li Zhenwu.
In truth, three-year-old Naruto didn't fully grasp what skipping grades meant, but he knew that to become Hokage, one had to graduate from the Ninja Academy!
In contrast, he, Uzumaki Naruto, hadn't even started school yet, while his peer Li Zhenwu was already moving up the ranks!
Guy Sensei, having returned to the village after a month's absence, was somewhat surprised by Li Zhenwu's pace at school, but it wasn't too shocking.
After all, during their sparring sessions previously, he had a general understanding of Li Zhenwu's strength.
If it was purely based on strength alone, Li Zhenwu would indeed be able to graduate from school quickly!
He already possessed the strength comparable to a ninja!
What truly astonished Guy Sensei was that Li Zhenwu had cultivated enough chakra within just one month!
It's worth noting that because of his guardianship of Rock Lee, Rock Lee hadn't attended school yet but was already exposed to chakra training quite early on.
However, from the time he started learning about chakra until now, Rock Lee still hadn't sensed chakra.
Meanwhile, Li Zhenwu, being Rock Lee's cousin, managed to amass enough chakra in just one short month...
Guy Sensei was very surprised, as genetic traits in the ninja world hold considerable weight.
For example, his father, Might Duy, was only a low-ranking ninja his entire life due to his lack of chakra.
Guy Sensei himself still struggled to use ninjutsu due to innate deficiencies.
Yet, as the son of a commoner, Li Zhenwu's terrifying talent, without any history of ninja lineage for generations, was simply astounding.
Truly deserving of the title 'Konoha Monster'!
Not just because of that unusual tail, but also due to his incredible talent!
