But a little kid like Kakashi definitely couldn't give him such a gift, so Minato tried his best to recall if Mokgetsu had any particular preferences.
After thinking for several minutes, Minato couldn't come up with anything. In his impression, Mokgetsu seemed to have no specific preferences in other areas.
"I think it's enough to convey your feelings, just give what you want to give." Minato finally replied.
Based on his understanding of Mokgetsu, that should be sufficient.
"Sorry for bothering you, Minato-senpai, thank you." Unable to get useful information from Minato, Kakashi didn't show a disappointed expression. He thanked Minato and then went to the Southern Border Forest to train.
He thought what Minato said made sense, since he really couldn't figure it out, there was no need to overthink it.
Minato smiled as he watched Kakashi's departing figure.
He wondered if one day Kakashi would also put so much thought into preparing a gift for him, making him look forward to being a future mentor even more.
Even though he was delayed a little on the way, Kakashi set off early enough, and by speeding up later, he wasn't late, just the last to arrive.
"Kakashi, you don't seem to value your training time. You should wake up a bit earlier and come to train sooner." Obito immediately seized the chance to take revenge for being disturbed by Kakashi yesterday.
Kakashi glanced at Obito and said calmly, "I've always been up very early. I just ran into Minato-senpai on the way, so it took a little extra time."
Obito instinctively thought about how to continue bantering with Kakashi, but suddenly realized that Kakashi said he met Namikaze Minato, so he quickly asked:
"Isn't Minato-senpai on the battlefield? How did you run into him?"
"The frontline war has reached a temporary pause, so Minato came back to rest," Mokgetsu answered Obito's question on behalf of Kakashi.
Only then did Obito remember that Mokgetsu was right next to him, and realizing that discussing gratitude was inappropriate, he gave Kakashi a look and didn't continue the conversation.
"Let's talk after training,"
Kakashi understood Obito's hint and didn't speak further.
Mokgetsu watched this scene with some curiosity, wondering why the conversation stopped after just two sentences, not typical of Kakashi and Obito's style.
Without showing any emotion, Mokgetsu moved beside Obito and then smiled as he asked, "Obito, you've been practicing in the Constant State for quite some time, do you feel like your Full Concentration Breathing lasts longer now?"
"I don't feel anything special, maybe because I've been training at home less. I have some matters to attend to at home," Obito answered honestly.
He thought his progress hadn't reached the level Mokgetsu planned for.
"But rest assured, Teacher Mokgetsu, when I train, I'm very focused. I'll definitely train more if I have time," Obito added.
Mokgetsu patted Obito's head with a smile, saying, "I know you're dedicated to your training, and as for your free time outside of training, you can spend it however you like."
Then Mokgetsu walked over to Might Guy, watched his training for a while, and said:
"Guy, how's the Eight Gates training going? Do you feel close to opening the Third Gate?"
Might Guy shook his head and replied, "Not at all."
"Could it be because I've been slack with preparing gifts lately?" Might Guy couldn't help but think.
When Mokgetsu asked like this, it usually meant that the expected level hadn't been reached.
"Maybe I've been training less lately, I'll double my training to catch up today!" Might Guy shouted passionately.
"No need for that, I was just asking, you can stick to the regular training schedule I've set for you," Mokgetsu said with a gentle smile, patting Might Guy on the shoulder.
"Something's up." After simply asking Might Guy and Obito, Mokgetsu guessed that his disciples might be busy with something he didn't know about after training hours and were intentionally keeping it from him.
"Are they planning to throw a celebration for me because graduation is coming and are preparing to give me gifts?" Mokgetsu speculated.
After all, the three disciples all had trust levels of four, which, according to Mokgetsu's observation, meant they practically regarded him as family.
Even though Kakashi hadn't reached level four, he was still in a relatively high-trust state.
With such a relationship, alongside the approaching graduation, it made sense for Mokgetsu to suspect they were planning a celebration.
Although Naruto World was full of eccentric minds, it wasn't crazy enough to murder a teacher right after graduation, and his students were perfectly normal at the moment.
After that, Mokgetsu didn't dwell on it further. It was exhausting enough to be cautious of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo; there was no need to apply that caution to his students.
When the afternoon training began, Mokgetsu stopped Shisui and Obito, who were about to start, and announced a new special training session.
"I used to chase after you, this time it's your chance for payback. I'll limit my speed to be similar to yours. You can use any means to attack my Shadow Clone, but the Shadow Clone won't fight back," Mokgetsu explained the rules of the new training.
This training was essentially similar to the last, but with a different focus. The last one emphasized dodging, while this one focused more on offensive ability.
"No assignments, right?" Obito asked tentatively.
He found it very similar to the last special training and was worried that it would generate a lot of assignments, affecting his time preparing gifts.
"Not right now." Mokgetsu answered with a smile.
In Mokgetsu's original plan, there were assignments as punishment. If they couldn't hit the Shadow Clone, it resulted in five problems per minute, with a maximum of ten minutes to determine success.
