Chapter 205 Konoha Dragon God
Chapter 205 Konoha Dragon God
On the playground of the Konoha Ninja Academy, a storm has already broken out among the teenagers.
After learning Shadow Clone Technique at the age of 7, Naruto often asked Sasuke to "spar".
Such matches have become a daily occurrence, though in the past the outcome was evenly split. As time went on, Naruto gained the ability to use Shadow Clones, and his taijutsu skills improved rapidly, causing Sasuke to gradually fall behind.
"Sass, I will definitely defeat you!"
Naruto wiped the sweat from his brow and created more than thirty shadow clones, which rushed towards Sasuke.
After a chaotic battle, Sasuke was caught off guard and successfully ambushed, then pinned to the ground by Naruto and his shadow clones.
He clenched his fists, looking at Naruto's smug smile, feeling a surge of anger welling up inside him.
How could he, a noble Uchiha, possibly lose?
Sasuke secretly went to the Uchiha training ground, quietly activated his two-tomoe Sharingan, and copied someone else's use of "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".
He memorized the hand seal sequence and secretly practiced the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique. Soon he was able to condense a Great Fireball of considerable size.
This is because he possesses the Yin Nine-Tails within him, and the Yin Nine-Tails' chakra continuously strengthens his physique. As a result, his chakra reserves are several times greater than those of an average Jonin.
During break the next day, Sasuke approached Naruto and said, "Let's have another match. This time I'll use my real skills."
Naruto readily agreed: "Sass, let's fight! I'll beat you again this time!"
The two arrived quickly and confronted each other in a corner of the playground.
Naruto, as always, summoned dozens of shadow clones right from the start.
Uchiha Sasuke, meanwhile, rapidly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
The enormous fireball quickly rushed towards Naruto's shadow clones. Upon impact, the fireball immediately exploded, and some of the shadow clones that were affected by it turned into smoke and disappeared. Some embers flew towards the students watching nearby.
"Water Release·Water Formation Wall"
The secret agents protecting them quickly activated Water Release to block the remaining flames, but several students still suffered burns to their arms from the heatwave.
Uchiha Mitsunori quickly received the report and immediately decided: "Sasuke, you are temporarily prohibited from using ninjutsu. You need to solidify your foundation first."
Sasuke Uchiha was indignant: "Why? Naruto also used Shadow Clone Jutsu, why is only my ninjutsu banned?"
He held his neck stiffly, his eyes filled with arrogance.
He is a great Uchiha, and he still has the Nine-Tails' chakra within him. How can he be bound by something as trivial as "forbidding the use of ninjutsu"?
Looking at 7-year-old Sasuke, Uchiha Mitsunori wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "You think ninjutsu is the key to victory? Then I'll find you a taijutsu teacher so you can understand what true 'strength' is."
Not long after, Sasuke, Xingchi, Bai Qi, and Shiryu were summoned together.
Seeing Sasuke approaching, Xingchi's voice was full of excitement: "Sasuke! Over here! Father said that Teacher Chen is the strongest taijutsu ninja in Konoha, and he wants us to learn from him!"
Zilong also said softly, "I've heard that Teacher Chen's taijutsu, 'Konoha Dragon God,' is very powerful. Let's learn it together."
As they were talking, a middle-aged man with a tall and straight figure, wearing a yellow training uniform, walked over.
With a full head of black hair yet brimming with energy and eyes as sharp as an eagle, he is none other than Chen Baojun, known as "Konoha's strongest taijutsu ninja".
Before the apprenticeship ceremony even began, Sasuke held his head high and declared, "I am Uchiha Sasuke. You are not worthy to be my teacher."
Bai Qi also frowned, feeling that Sasuke's words were too impolite.
Zilong quietly took a step back, waiting to see what would happen next.
Teacher Chen wasn't angry; she simply raised an eyebrow: "Oh? So what do you want?"
"I challenge you! A martial arts duel, and if I lose, I'll acknowledge you as my teacher."
Uchiha Sasuke spread his legs, assuming a fighting stance, and quietly activated his two-tomoe Sharingan.
Stephen Chow stamped his feet in frustration: "Sasuke, are you crazy? Teacher Chen is..."
Before he could finish speaking, Sasuke had already rushed forward.
His movements were swift, employing the basic taijutsu of the Uchiha clan, his fist aimed directly at Teacher Chen's chest.
Teacher Chen slightly shifted her foot to the side, easily dodging the attack. At the same time, she raised her hand, grabbed Sasuke's wrist, and gently twisted it, causing Sasuke to flip over and fall to the ground.
"The opponent's speed is too fast..."
Sasuke lay on the ground, his eyes wide with surprise.
Stephen Chow then leaned closer to Sasuke and whispered, "I told you, Teacher Chen is amazing. Don't be impulsive anymore."
Sasuke gritted his teeth, his neck stiffening: "If I could use ninjutsu... I... I'm sure... I could win!"
Teacher Chen was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Okay, I'll allow you to use ninjutsu."
Sasuke shouted, his hands rapidly forming hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A huge fireball roared out, and the heat wave caused the surrounding leaves to curl up.
Stephen Chow couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! Sasuke's Fireball Jutsu is so powerful!"
Teacher Chen stood still, took a deep breath, and his chakra surged around him as he assumed a peculiar pose: "Konoha Dragon God!"
His body spun around, forming a long green dragon that crashed directly into the fireball. With a loud "bang," the fireball was torn apart into countless sparks.
Teacher Chen's Wind Dragon hadn't stopped yet; with a final sweeping kick, he tripped Sasuke again.
Sasuke lay on the ground, looking at the scattered sparks, and finally lost his temper.
Stephen Chow patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's okay. If you lose, you can learn again. We'll practice martial arts together with Teacher Chen, and we'll definitely get stronger!"
Teacher Chen walked over and helped Sasuke up: "Ninjutsu is the weapon, taijutsu is the foundation. If the foundation is not stable, no matter how sharp the weapon is, it's useless. You are an Uchiha, you have talent, and you also have arrogance, but arrogance can't put food on the table. If you want to win, you must first master taijutsu."
Sasuke looked at Teacher Chen's rough but strong hands, then at the sincere eyes of his three brothers beside him, and finally lowered his proud head: "...I understand, Teacher."
From that day on, four small figures could always be seen on the training field.
Teacher Chen was extremely strict with them. They had to practice the horse stance until their legs trembled and throw punches until their arms ached.
Once, Sasuke was practicing and wanted to give up, but Stephen Chow immediately said, "Sasuke, have you forgotten how you lost to Naruto last time? Let's persevere together, and we'll definitely surpass him in the future!"
Bai Qi nodded: "Practice for another ten minutes, I'll practice with you."
Zilong handed over the water bottle: "Drink some water first, rest for a minute before continuing, don't give up."
After training that day, Zilong approached Teacher Chen and said, "Teacher, could you teach me... the Leaf Dragon God... I think this move would suit me perfectly!"
Teacher Chen stroked his beard and smiled, "Of course you can, but you're too young. With your current physique, you haven't reached the minimum standard to learn the Leaf Village Dragon God, so you need to train your physique more."
Zilong nodded respectfully: "Then I'll train for two extra hours every day..."
