Kakashi-sensei... Your words contain much wisdom. I can see the truth in them. Gai-Sensei has always said that... that he has valued my hard work even when I have lost. I think that I can now truly feel his pride...

...And - I - I thank you, Kakashi-sensei! It's no wonder that you are Gai-Sensei's eternal rival. You are truly worthy of being his equal!
