"You can also use Lightning Chakra to activate and strengthen your leg muscles, reducing the physical burden of sudden acceleration. This way, the number of times you can continuously use it can be appropriately increased."
Shinji naturally saw Sasuke's expression.
This kid, if he keeps getting stimulated like this, will he awaken his Three Tomoe Sharingan?
"Besides Naruto and Sasuke, the rest of you need to further improve your physique before you can learn this."
"After all, this Body Flicker Technique is actually a type of Taijutsu. If your physique doesn't meet the standards, forcing its use might put a lot of pressure on your body."
"Once you can complete the physical training I assign within two hours, you can start learning this Body Flicker Technique."
"Yes, sensei." Shikamaru and the others nodded in response.
Shinji had already explained the key points of this Body Flicker Technique to them. Learning it sooner or later would be the same.

Ninjutsu: Needle Jizo!
As Shinji completed his hand seals, his hair seemed to come alive, extending and then enveloping his entire body.
The Shadow Clone outside, as initially envisioned, began to release various Ninjutsu towards Shinji. Finally, it lifted a large rock and hurled it fiercely towards Shinji.
Boom—
After a loud bang, the rock shattered, and Shinji's Needle Jizo was also dispelled.
"A B-rank Ninjutsu can withstand two to three hits. For blunt force, I need to output Chakra to maintain its toughness. However, the Chakra output needs to be one-third more than at the beginning."
As the Shadow Clone dispelled, Shinji began to ponder.
Not bad, at least it lives up to its B-rank Ninjutsu classification. It's just that the Chakra output is considerable.
"It's just, why do I feel like the time it takes for me to learn Ninjutsu is much shorter than before?"
Many thoughts flashed through Shinji's mind. It seemed that ever since his Yin Chakra reached extraordinary level, his understanding and learning of some Ninjutsu had accelerated significantly.
Never mind, whatever the reason, learning quickly is a good thing.
Shinji straightened up and slowly walked towards the training ground. Having finished his own testing, he naturally had to check on his disciples.

Kakashi's mood was not pleasant at the moment. He had initially thought that by following the legendary Sannin, he might witness something different.
But he didn't expect that after going back and forth across the Land of Rice Fields, they would eventually return to their starting point.
"Kakashi. I'm going to gather intelligence first."
Inside the room, Jiraiya, after tidying up, waved at Kakashi, preparing to leave.
Kakashi, with his exposed deadpan eye, looked at Jiraiya with a dull expression. "Jiraiya-sama, I think it would be better to focus on completing the mission first."
Regarding Jiraiya's so-called intelligence gathering, he had already figured out what it was in this period of time.
There was one time he didn't believe it and went to check it out himself. Then, Jiraiya threw the blame onto him, making him have to apologize to the owner of the hot spring inn endlessly. He was also surrounded by a group of people in bathrobes and almost couldn't make it back.
Thinking of this, Kakashi touched the mask on his face and unconsciously shivered.
That scene was too terrifying!
Jiraiya said with a serious expression, "Kakashi, I'm going out to complete the mission."
Kakashi expressed his suspicion of Jiraiya and directly asked, "Then, why don't you take me with you?"
Jiraiya shook his head and refused, "You rest here first. After all, you've been running around a lot lately and must be tired."
"But…"
Just as Kakashi was about to speak again, a book came flying at him and hit him on the head.
"That's it for now, Kakashi. Keep this book to relieve your boredom."
By the time Kakashi recovered, Jiraiya was no longer in the lodging.
"It's like this again."
Seeing this, Kakashi could only sigh helplessly.
His gaze, however, subconsciously glanced at the book at his feet. After a moment of hesitation, he picked it up.
"Icha Icha… Paradise?"
Out of curiosity about the name, Kakashi opened it.
Instantly, the entire room fell silent.
After a long while, Kakashi finally stopped flipping through the pages, a slight blush appearing on his cheeks beneath his mask.
"It can… be like this?"
"No! The Three Ninja Prohibitions! I can't be like this!" Kakashi said, then quickly threw down the book in his hand.
He quickly sat cross-legged, trying to quell the flames in his heart.
"Or… just a little more?"
As he sat cross-legged, he still felt restless. His exposed single eye once again looked at the book he had thrown at his feet.
Amidst the struggle between the devil and angel in his heart, Kakashi didn't notice that he had once again picked up Icha Icha Paradise.
"Ehehehe—"
Subsequently, some strange sounds emanated from the room.
As the sky outside gradually darkened, Kakashi was scratching his hair, making incomprehensible sounds.
Whoosh—
The next moment, dozens of long snakes broke through Kakashi's room, coiling and converging towards him, who was sitting on the ground.
Kakashi reacted too slowly and was immediately entangled by these long pythons, his entire body lifted high. The Icha Icha Paradise in his hand fell at this moment, hitting the ground.
"Heh heh… after such a long time. You really made me wait."
A sinister voice sounded, and the pale-faced Orochimaru slowly walked in from outside the door. His golden vertical pupils looked at Kakashi, who was trapped by his jutsu, and a strange smile spread across his face.
"Copy Ninja… Kakashi."
Kakashi hung from the ceiling, and his pupils suddenly constricted.
The dangerous aura emanating from Orochimaru, like a deadly viper, constantly stimulated his senses.
Seemingly sensing Kakashi's hopes, Orochimaru extended his long tongue, licking his lips, and slowly said, "That idiot Jiraiya won't be back so soon, so how do you plan to escape?"
Kakashi, who had been looking terrified, spoke expressionlessly the next second, "Is that so?"
Sizzle—
The bound Kakashi transformed into raging lightning, and electrical flashes erupted among the coiling snakes.
Chidori!
Behind Orochimaru, Kakashi, who had appeared at some unknown time, moved with extreme speed.
The eye patch he always wore had been removed, and his scarlet, blood-like Three Tomoe Sharingan was now spinning wildly.
The hand holding the Chidori was deeply embedded in Orochimaru's back, and hot blood splattered on Kakashi's face.
"Sharingan, huh?"
Orochimaru, pierced by the Chidori, calmly turned his face, looking at Kakashi's Sharingan, and slowly said.
Kakashi frowned.
The next moment, he saw Orochimaru transform into countless long snakes flicking their tongues.
Hiss—
The long snakes lunged at Kakashi again.
Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
