[Disciple Choji has completed the training mission.]
[Rewards: Chakra +800, Disciple Exclusive Skill: Butterfly Mode: Gluttony Form!]
[Disciple Naruto has completed the training mission.]
[Rewards: Chakra +1500, Disciple Exclusive Skill: Shadow Clone: Self-Destructing Puppet!]
"Is it because of Yang Release?" Shinji couldn't help but wonder as he looked at Choji and Naruto's rewards.
After all, not only was there a Chakra reward, but he also received disciple-exclusive skills.
Choji's Butterfly Mode: Gluttony Form was actually similar to a Sage Mode, except it required his own Chakra.
Upon entering this mode, butterfly patterns would appear on his body, his speed and strength would greatly increase, and his attacks would be imbued with Chakra shockwaves.
The cost was that he needed to consume a large amount of high-energy food beforehand to rapidly convert it into Chakra, and he would fall into a temporary state of weakness afterward.
Isn't this just an alternative to Butterfly Mode? It just doesn't require Choji to take the Three-Coloured Pills.
That's good, at least there are no side effects.
After all, Choji's Three-Coloured Pills could be said to overdraft vitality to achieve an instant increase in Chakra.
It could be considered a good skill, and it came with Chakra shockwaves.
As for Naruto's skill...
Shinji's lips slightly twitched. This was the sinister skill he had imagined before.
Now it actually appeared?
Shinji clicked to view it, because if this skill would harm him, it would be better not to give it to Naruto.
[Shadow Clone: Self-Destructing Puppet]
Improved from Tobirama's Shadow Clone, this jutsu does not evenly distribute the main body's Chakra, only retaining a certain degree of resistance to damage, and the memories and pain after the explosion do not return to the main body.
When performing the jutsu, it is necessary to prepare explosive tags and seal them within the Shadow Clone's body.
When in close proximity, it will intentionally allow the enemy to destroy the clone, thereby triggering an explosion.
(Note: The main body can superimpose Wind Release from the periphery to expand the kill radius.)
Upon seeing this, Shinji did not hesitate and confirmed the collection of the rewards. Although it didn't directly involve him, a powerful disciple also meant a powerful him.
Totally worth it!
After reading the introduction, Shinji slowly walked over to Sasuke.
At this moment, Sasuke was being treated by Ino using the Mystical Palm Technique. As for the bent angle of his right arm, Shinji took one look and roughly understood it.
He said to Sasuke, "Sasuke, it's going to hurt a bit, bear with it."
Sasuke gritted his teeth, nodding to indicate he was ready.
Kaba—
A crisp sound rang out, and Sasuke felt as if he was about to fly into the sky.
Shinji used Yang Chakra to nourish his recently reattached arm.
As the Yang Chakra entered, Sasuke felt a cool sensation, and the pain also significantly lessened.
Confirming it was almost done, Shinji stopped nourishing with Yang Chakra and said to Sasuke, "You still need to rest for a while. Tomorrow, I'll warm it up for you again, and then you should be able to move it."
"Okay, sensei." Sasuke just nodded lightly.
His mind was now completely filled with Naruto's image. Even though he had already learned Chidori, he was still easily defeated by Naruto.
Moreover, thinking about it now, Naruto had many ways to break through his fire circle but chose the least effective Shadow Clone. He did so because the other methods might harm him.
Now that he had calmed down, Sasuke felt his thoughts were somewhat ridiculous, as if he had lost his mind. He truly lost terribly.
"Naruto, you are very strong." Sasuke glanced at Naruto, who was standing beside him, and murmured.
"Hehehe—"
Naruto froze upon hearing this, then rubbed his nose a bit sheepishly and said, "It was just a trick. After all, Sasuke, your Chidori probably hasn't been perfectly controlled yet."
Naruto recalled that when Sasuke had charged out of the fire circle, his Chidori had always been dragged along the ground. This indicated that Sasuke probably couldn't perfectly control it yet. That's why he needed to use this method to slow down his high-speed attack.
Naruto said, giving Sasuke a thumbs-up, "Sasuke, pick up the pace, okay? I don't want you to fall too far behind me."
"Tch—"
Sasuke, who had been looking dejected, snorted and turned his face away upon hearing Naruto's words.
Then he saw Shinji looking at him with a smile, causing his face to turn bright red.
"Alright, Sasuke, Naruto is right. You and Shikamaru are friends who walk side by side."
"So, let's all do our best."
"Yes! Sensei!"
Shikamaru and the others surrounding Sasuke responded loudly.
—
After the last confrontation, Sasuke had been continuously training after recovering. He still needed to deepen his high-speed sprints. He lost last time not because Chidori was ineffective, but because he couldn't perfectly control it.
Moreover, he had specifically trained in genjutsu. After all, what he had always wanted was to defeat Naruto head-on. He had overlooked the inherent advantage of his Sharingan.
Shinji didn't object to this. After all, Sharingan was a good direction for advancement.
He trained Sasuke's physical abilities and other aspects simply to prevent him from having only the Sharingan as a particularly singular attack method. Moreover, for exploring the Sharingan, Sasuke actually had a better teacher.
Naruto, on the other hand, was practicing how to embed explosive tags in his Shadow Clones more quickly. Naruto expressed that the new jutsu Shinji taught him was simply amazing.
Moreover, he had even thought of a special tactic. It was to use normal Shadow Clones and self-destructing clones to attack the enemy together. Perhaps one wouldn't explode, but the next one would.
Wouldn't that ensure a complete victory?
Shinji expressed that this method was feasible.
However, Naruto needed to pay attention to the distance between the normal Shadow Clones and the self-destructing Shadow Clones.
This was to prevent the jutsu, which was originally intended to avoid self-harm, from becoming ineffective due to Naruto's reckless actions.
Naruto, after experimenting once, profoundly stated that he must listen to Shinji's words. He never wanted to experience the pain of being blown to pieces again.
Choji, meanwhile, was continuously gorging himself, with Mimi was squatting beside him, staring wide-eyed at Choji.
Has this kid gone crazy?
As he ate bag after bag of high-energy food, Choji raised his hand to form a hand seal.
Learning Butterfly Mode: Gluttony Form required Choji to rapidly convert high-energy food into Chakra before he could activate it. Therefore, he was caught in a cycle of joy and pain.
The food had just entered his stomach, and he hadn't even had time to enjoy the blissful feeling of fullness.
The next moment, he had to convert it.
Moreover, this was already the seventh time today. It made Choji's mouth tremble now whenever he saw food.
