Chapter 327 Tutorial, Lv14, Mizukage
Konoha, we are one family.
After taking a bath, eating, and resting for a while, the three little ones stood neatly in the training ground.
Taiyi looked at the three people standing still, their little faces tense, their eyes fixed on him, and nodded with satisfaction.
We won't dwell on Itachi; he's a child with high talent and strong self-discipline, so there's no need to worry about him too much.
Jiang Tai and Ya Mei are two people who can let loose when playing and also focus their minds when it's time to study.
"Today we won't learn anything else. I'll teach you a set of basic physical techniques, and you should practice them for at least an hour every day from now on."
"Yes, Taiichi-sensei!"
The three little ones answered in unison, their voices loud and clear, full of confidence.
What Taiyi was going to teach them was a simplified version of basic physical techniques.
Compared to the version given to Yohei and Saori, this version is simpler and more suitable for five- or six-year-old children, but it is also more comprehensive, including methods of raising, training, and fighting.
Taiyi led the way, letting the three little ones watch him demonstrate once, so they could familiarize themselves with the movements and have a clear understanding of them.
His movements were fluid and graceful, each move showcasing the strength and flexibility of his muscles and joints. His pace was varied, sometimes as swift and fierce as a whirlwind, and sometimes as gentle and composed as a breeze.
After finishing once, Taiyi tidied up, turned around, and looked at the three little ones.
"How's it going? How much have you remembered?" Taiyi asked with a smile.
The three of them shook their heads in unison, their faces full of bewilderment, as if to say, "You're so amazing, but I don't understand at all."
Taiyi took it lightly and had the three of them practice along with his movements this time.
Once, twice —
It only took the three little ones an hour to go from stumbling and struggling at the beginning to being able to follow Taiyi and fight quite well.
And then comes the essence of this martial art – the breathing technique.
Only by coordinating breathing with movement and making every effort to engage every muscle in the body can the full effect of nourishment and training be achieved.
This lesson also revealed the difference in talent among the three.
Although Itachi was the youngest, he learned the fastest, mastering everything in just three hours.
Jiang Tai and Ya Mei, however, studied a little later, until evening, before they had roughly finished learning all the key points.
However, Taiyi was already quite satisfied.
Whether it was Itachi, Eta, or Masami, no one complained of being tired while studying; they all persevered until Taichi told them to take a break.
After a day of learning, everyone agreed on a time for the next day and went home.
Taiyi watched the group disappear at the end of the road, a slight smile curving his lips.
The saying "Reviewing the old helps one understand the new" is indeed true.
Being able to do something yourself and teaching others to do it are two completely different things.
Taiyi looked at his panel.
[Your understanding of physical techniques has improved as you teach them!]
[Your skill has been upgraded to physical combat; experience points +50]
These 50 points of experience are equivalent to the gains from several days of hard training.
Teaching apprentices while also gaining personal benefits is undoubtedly a win-win situation.
Meanwhile, Itachi, back home, stood respectfully before his parents, recounting his experiences at Tai's house that day.
Even though he tried his best to restrain himself, the couple could tell from Itachi's subtle actions that their son was in an exceptionally good mood today.
As a father and clan leader, Fugaku was both worried and pleased about Itachi's change.
On the contrary, Mikoto, as a mother, is genuinely happy as long as she sees her son happy.
After Itachi finished recounting what had happened that day, Fugaku's expression remained unchanged. Looking at his son's expectant eyes, he finally managed a smile.
"Alright, you must be tired today. Go home and get some rest so you won't be late tomorrow."
"Yes, Father. Goodnight, Mother."
As Itachi's figure disappeared outside the room and his footsteps faded into the distance, Mikoto, being a loving mother, couldn't wait to ask him a question.
"My lord, what do you think of Taiyi's teaching?"
"What do you think, Madam?" Fugaku asked instead of answering.
"I feel great! I've never seen Itachi so happy!"
As Mikoto spoke, she couldn't help but raise her hand to gently wipe away the tears that had slipped from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing her son gradually becoming like her husband, always with a stern face and a heavy heart, she even wondered if Itachi had forgotten how to smile.
Seeing her son smile again makes her happier than anything else.
Men think differently from women, and fathers think differently from mothers.
However, Fugaku was indeed a good husband and did not refute Mikoto's words.
"It's still early, let's continue to observe. After all, we promised Taiyi that we wouldn't interfere with his teaching."
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, Fugaku arrived at Itachi's courtyard and stood at the gate, watching Itachi train his taijutsu.
Fugaku was a Jonin, so he had a good eye for things. He could naturally see the brilliance of Itachi's taijutsu from his movements.
The human body has 206 bones and approximately 639 muscles.
Based on his observations, Fugaku discovered that the movements of this martial art involved 80% of the muscle groups.
This is an incredibly large number. You should know that the average person's daily exercise involves only two to three hundred muscles.
This shows how comprehensive this physical training method is. However, if that's all there is to it, then this physical training method can only be considered a relatively good method of body tempering. At least for now, he hasn't seen any other outstanding features.
Fugaku watched for a while longer, but seeing nothing else, he didn't disturb Itachi's training and quietly left the courtyard.
Meanwhile, Itachi was trying hard to recall the key points Tai had taught him yesterday, adjusting his breathing to match each of his movements with his breathing rhythm.
Only in this way can the most important nourishing effect of this set of physical techniques be achieved, which cannot be seen by sight.
Taiyi has his own teaching plan.
On the first day, we played in the morning and were taught basic physical skills in the afternoon.
The next day, the morning consisted of review and play, and the afternoon was dedicated to teaching basic meditation.
On the third day, the morning was for review and play, and the afternoon was for practice and instruction in the theoretical basics of ninjutsu.
From then on, this process was repeated every day.
The children are too young. Even Jiang Tai and Ya Mei are only six years old. Taiyi will not force them to cultivate chakra at such a young age.
Now, he is simply laying a solid foundation for the children, just like a tree that can grow stronger in the future only by planting its roots deeper.
Such an education, apart from professionals, is something only Taiyi possesses the leisure and refinement to provide.
After all, compared to studying ninjutsu or forging swordsmanship, teaching children requires almost no mental effort. He can easily create another shadow clone without affecting his daily life.
Mount Asama, a volcanic lava lake.
A flame, turning platinum, is flickering here.
Calling it a flame is no longer accurate; it merely retains the shape of a flame, yet it is now as tall as a person.
That's not all; the flames expand and contract rhythmically, just like a person's breathing.
If someone knowledgeable in magical arts were here, they would surely see that with each contraction of the flame, a large amount of natural energy was being absorbed into it.
With the next expansion, the flames shifted further towards a platinum-gold hue.
This represents higher temperatures and a more solid flame.
At a certain moment, as if breaking through some kind of limit, the bright white flames suddenly contracted violently, compressing to half their original height of one person, and then suddenly exploded.
With a loud "boom".
The lava lake was blasted into a huge crater.
The powerful shockwave disrupted the internal stability of the lava lake, causing the previously calm crater to churn violently.
A white-gold ball of light, trailing a long tail of flame, shot into the sky from the crater, only to vanish completely just before reaching its highest point.
Immediately afterwards, the long-dormant volcano seemed to sneeze, spewing out large amounts of lava to release the pressure accumulated deep within the earth.
The eruption lasted for a full hour before the volcano's interior regained balance and returned to its original stability.
Meanwhile, our Taiyi has already appeared on the east coast, by the sea.
After nearly a month of training in the volcano, his fire attribute transformation finally reached level 14 today.
He closed his eyes, carefully savoring the feeling of this moment, the feeling that he was the flame itself, which was so captivating.
The threshold of Lv14 Super Shadow and the peak of Lv13 Shadow are only one level apart, but only those who are in the middle can truly feel the difference.
It's not that a single attribute is weak; it's just that no one has ever trained a single attribute to a sufficient level.
Having Kage-level strength doesn't necessarily mean that one's attributes will also reach Kage-level levels. Physical condition often makes it easier to increase one's strength level.
Madara Uchiha relied on the Mangekyou Sharingan, while Hashirama Senju relied on the Sage Body and Wood Release.
Not to mention that they both possess chakra essences that are almost at the Six Paths level, such as Indra and Ashura.
This significantly raised the ceiling of their abilities.
With a wave of his hand, a ball of platinum fire flew out from Taiyi's hand.
The intense heat distorted the surrounding air, making the flame appear so elusive in the visual field.
The fireball was more than a meter above the sea surface, yet even so, as the flames flew along, the seawater still emitted thick fog along the way.
When the fireball crashed into the sea, it did not extinguish like ordinary flames upon entering the water.
The intense heat created a high-temperature aura around the fireball, preventing the seawater from getting closer.
Outside of this aura, the seawater seemed to explode, splashing and spraying everywhere.
Until the chakra supporting the flames was completely exhausted, the fireball unleashed its final brilliance.
With a deafening roar, a shockwave, no less powerful than several explosive tags exploding simultaneously, created a giant wave several meters high.
The effects of that fireball have finally ended.
This was just a fireball casually thrown out, at most equivalent to a Phoenix Flame. What if it were a Great Fireball? A Fire Dragon Flame Bullet? Or a Great Fire Extinguisher?
I believe that its power is definitely not something that an ordinary Jonin could withstand by simply using a large number of ordinary Water Release techniques.
Taiichi has achieved his training goal at Mount Asama. Although it was a little later than expected, he is still very satisfied.
His next target had already been planned: the isolated island nation of the Water Country.
Of the five great nations of the ninja world, only the Land of Water remains unvisited.
While Taiyi was still cultivating in the crater, the Hidden Mist Village was filled with joy.
The losses they suffered at Konoha were now being redeemed by Sunagakure.
For strategic reasons, Sunagakure mobilized the entire village to completely sever ties with Konoha. Although they ultimately achieved their strategic objective—forcing Konoha to sign a peace treaty.
However, this move also gave Fog Shadows ample time to act.
The long coastline, extending for 100 kilometers, has become a target for the Fog Shadows' raids.
With its forces depleted, Sunagakure could only keep Kirigakure within this area, preventing them from further damaging the Land of Wind.
Even so, Kirigakure still made a fortune.
-
The enormous war spoils further solidified Kirigakure's resolve to continue attacking Sunagakure, but this completely went against the wishes of a certain dying man.
The Third Mizukage was riding high during this period, having successfully led the operation against Sunagakure, and naturally no one mentioned the previous minor setbacks against Konoha.
Unfortunately, of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist whom he had painstakingly trained, only Suigetsu Hozuki, the user of Samehada, and Hozuki Mugetsu, the user of Hiramekarei, are still alive.
The thought of this pained him deeply; they were all his most trusted confidants, powerful weapons used to counterbalance the ninja clan.
Fortunately, the three major ninja clans also suffered heavy casualties, so in all things considered, their side wasn't at a huge loss.
He held the scroll awaiting approval in his hand, but in his mind he was analyzing the current situation in the village.
Overall, thanks to his victory in the battle against Sunagakure, he now completely suppresses the three major clans.
A distinct smile curved his lips; the Third Mizukage was in an exceptionally good mood.
"What's making you so happy? Tell me so I can be happy too."
A sudden sound rang out in the room, startling the Third Mizukage.
With a soft "hiss," the scroll in my hand was torn in two.
The Third Mizukage dropped the scroll in his hand, his initial surprise quickly subsiding as his gaze settled on the corner of the office wall to his left.
There, a figure was slowly emerging, as if squeezed out of the surrounding air; this was a remarkably skillful technique of invisibility.
The Third Mizukage remained quite calm. Although it seemed certain that the ANBU protecting him had perished, this was Kirigakure.
As long as you make a little noise, reinforcements will arrive within a few breaths, while for the other side to eliminate you within a few breaths is simply wishful thinking.
"Who exactly are you? It's rather impolite of you to barge into my office like this!"
The Third Mizukage asked the questions directly, knowing there wouldn't be time to ask them later when the fight started.
"You'll know who I am once you see it for yourself."
A soft laugh rang out, and the figure finally revealed itself completely.
All that could be seen was a dark red armor draped over his body, his signature fluffy black hair, and his disdainful eyes that shone with a scarlet light.
Instantly, it pulled the Third Mizukage's memories back to his youth, to that terrifying era dominated by the Asuras of the Ninja World.
"Uchiha Madara!"
The words were squeezed out one by one from the mouth of the Third Mizukage, and the immense shock caused even the dignified Mizukage to lose his composure.
At that very instant, Madara, who had appeared, glared, and a massive amount of ocular power blasted into the Mizukage's brain through their eye contact.
With overwhelming force and without any effective resistance, the Third Mizukage's mind was controlled by the genjutsu, leaving him completely dazed.
"Lord Madara is indeed as sharp as ever; you took down the village's Kage in a single move."
Black Zetsu's voice came from Madara's left hand, revealing that he had been attached to Madara's left hand all along.
"What kind of Kage is this? He's nowhere near as good as the original ones."
Madara's disdainful voice rang out as he casually picked up the scroll that had just been torn open by the Mizukage. It was the latest battle report from the front lines, showing that the Sand Village's counterattack was fierce and that casualties at the front lines were increasing.
