Chapter 23 - Shinji VS Root Ninja

"Shinji-sensei! I succeeded!"

Just as Shinji was still pondering how to improve Naruto's Chakra control, Naruto stood on top of the tree and shouted loudly.

Shinji stretched out his hand to clap and smiled. "Well done! Naruto!"

Shinji couldn't help but admire Naruto in his heart. Overcoming fear is not easy for anyone. Moreover, Naruto is only about six years old now. This kind of temperament is outstanding for students who have not experienced wars.

After walking halfway up the tree according to the climbing method, Naruto jumped in front of Shinji and scratched the back of his head.

He had a happy smile on his face as he said, "Hehe, it's because Shinji-sensei taught well."

Shinji said, "Alright, you did it. You deserve praise."

Shinji rubbed Naruto's hair in annoyance. Naruto is not the type of person who would be truly humble.

[You have taught your disciple Naruto Chakra control training. Due to your disciple's excellent completion, you have received the reward Mental Strength Training (Various Worlds Version)]

All kinds of mental strength training methods instantly appeared in Shinji's mind. While they were diverse, Shinji found a few training methods that Naruto could try.

He was very satisfied with this reward, because he could use these materials to strengthen himself, and also teach them to his disciples.

Useful small knowledge has increased again.

However, what Shinji was most satisfied with was one of the techniques inside.

That's right, there was actually knowledge about Ninjutsu inside, and it was a unique skill of Naruto's Uzumaki clan.

Kagura Mind's Eye. This technique was only shown on Karin throughout the entire series.

Even Shinji's current ability to sense by touching the ground with his finger is arguably not as good as this technique.

The activation radius of Kagura Mind's Eye is tens of kilometers. Within this range, abnormal movements can be sensed with Chakra. In addition, if the caster knows a Chakra signature, they can also sense the specific location and movement of this particular Chakra.

The number of people and their Chakra characteristics, and even their movement speed can be understood in detail. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the strongest sensing technique.

Thinking of this, Shinji looked at Naruto and said, "Naruto, rest for a while. I will write something for you. You have to take time to do it every day from now on."

Hearing this, Naruto, who was originally wondering why Shinji had been in a daze, immediately became happy.

"Okay! Shinji-sensei."

After saying that, he ran to the side excitedly, sat down and drank water.

Shinji took out a notebook and started writing and drawing.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, he didn't write down the name of this technique. Instead, he spent more effort on aspects of mental and Chakra control.

Anyway, as long as Naruto perseveres every day according to what is written in the notebook, with some time, the Kagura Mind's Eye, which is unique to the Uzumaki clan, will naturally activate.

"Take this, Naruto. From now on, you have to train well every day according to what is written on this. If you don't understand anything, come and ask me."

After Shinji finished writing, he handed the notebook to Naruto.

Naruto quickly got up and reached out to take it, bowing and thanking him at the same time, "Thank you, sensei."

"Alright, it's almost time. It's time to go home."

Shinji didn't say much, looking at the sky that was gradually approaching dusk.

"Yes, Shinji-sensei."

Naruto didn't say much and started helping to clean up the training ground.

As for inviting Shinji to his home, Naruto, no matter how thick-skinned he was, would never be able to say it.

After all, Shinji had been with him all day, which was something he had never dared to imagine before.

Today's experience, for him, was already a full harvest. He couldn't bother Shinji anymore.

Walking on the streets of Konoha, looking at Naruto who thanked him and went home obediently, Shinji couldn't help but smile.

Not only did he learn the A-rank Ninjutsu Rasengan today, but he also gained benefits by teaching Naruto Chakra control separately.

No matter how you look at it, it's not a loss. Perhaps it would be good to do this every weekend in the future.

...

After having dinner nearby, Shinji walked home and looked at the various villagers in Konoha.

Amidst the liveliness, there was a sense of everyday life. He sighed, perhaps the Third Hokage wasn't so bad.

The next second, his expression froze, and then he continued to walk as usual. But he no longer walked on the main street like before. Instead, he turned and walked into a small alley.

At this moment, he sensed that someone seemed to be following him.

As Shinji gradually walked into the remote alley.

At the end of the alley, a ninja wearing an animal mask was standing there.

"Shinji, Danzo-sama has ordered you to come over."

His words were full of contempt, as if Shinji should be grateful and kneel down upon hearing this, and then agree.

Shinji's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was very flat. "Danzo? What kind of rat from a gutter is that? I don't know him."

As soon as these words came out, the Root ninja, who had been calm, immediately pulled out a shuriken and pointed it at Shinji.

"Presumptuous! Just a Chunin! How dare you speak disrespectfully to Danzo-sama!"

The Root revered their leader Danzo like a god. If Danzo hadn't demanded that Shinji be brought back alive, he would have gone forward and killed Shinji just now.

"Since you have drawn your kunai, it means you are ready to die."

Shinji's emotionless tone made the Root ninja furious, and he fiercely attacked Shinji.

Danzo required Shinji to be alive. He didn't say that his hands and feet couldn't be broken before bringing him.

"Die!"

Shinji, who was standing not far away, quickly formed hand seals with both hands.

Earth Release: Headhunter Jutsu!

Silently reciting the name of the Ninjutsu, Shinji's figure disappeared from the spot.

Rhe moment the Root ninja saw Shinji disappear, he immediately stopped in his tracks and kept looking around.

Wrong!

The Root ninja looked around and didn't see Shinji's figure.

The next second, he reacted. The hand seals Shinji had just formed. The root ninja who thought of this wanted to jump up.

However, just as he was about to move, below where he was standing, a hand unexpectedly broke through the ground and grabbed his right foot as he was jumping. He was violently pulled down.

"Damn it! I was careless!"

The Root ninja's pupils shrank sharply, and he couldn't help but hate himself for being careless.

"Rasengan!"

The Root ninja, who was still thinking about how to escape, looked up the moment he heard the sound.

Under the moonlight, Shinji's right hand was spinning with a dazzling Chakra sphere, and he was quickly falling towards him.

"No! I'm from Root...!"
