Chapter 13: He really teaches ninjutsu!
"The first task is to clean up the river!"

Minato Namikaze unfolded a D-level mission scroll, and then led several members of Team 3 and tools to a river (the village was very large and there was a lot of open space).

The three of them carried bamboo bags and held garbage tongs.

I'm so confused!
Especially Kakashi, who is only six years old this year (five years old to enter the upper ninja school), but the backpack is almost as tall as him.

For example, Tang Ping is more than a head taller than him.

But no one said anything about letting him rest.

Ninjas will not look down on or treat you differently because of your age.

Because of the existence of chakra!
No matter how young you are, it doesn't mean you are easy to mess with.

"Next, you can do what I did and release chakra steadily and continuously from the soles of your feet... and then you can stand on the water."

As Minato Namikaze spoke, he walked into the river, his body extremely steady, as if the ground under his feet was not water but flat ground.

tread water!

It is also a technique for using chakra.

After mastering this technique, ninjas can fight on water, and rivers and the like will not be able to stop them.

I can only say that Konoha Village’s training system is indeed very complete.

In the early stages, not only are there teachers to impart experience, but there are also various tasks to train. No wonder they can withstand the siege in several Ninja World Wars.

In addition to the larger number of ninjas, their quality is indeed not weak.

"Yes, Minato-sensei!"*3
The three of them took action.

However, the performances vary.

Kakashi was extremely steady, not at all like a seven-year-old.

Although Yamama Koji seemed to have some twists and turns, he was able to stand firmly on the water. It was obvious that he had practiced in advance.

'Did anyone give you any advice?'

A doubt flashed through Minato Namikaze's mind.

Because the ninja school teachers will not teach the skill of treading water.

For ordinary ninja school students who don't even have much chakra, the method of controlling chakra is far less important than accumulating chakra, so the school does not teach it.

Poo tom!

Tang Ping plunged headfirst into the river.

"Tang Ping!"

Koji Yamama rushed to take action, but forgot that he was just barely standing on the water and was directly pulled into the water.

"Kakashi, you're teammates, shouldn't you help at a time like this?"

Minato Namikaze looked at the little white-haired boy standing silently on the water with pity in his eyes.

He knew a lot about the other party's father, and even knew that Danzo had always wanted to train him to be a sharp blade of the Root. That was why the Third Hokage asked him to accept the other party as his disciple.

Please note that the 'disciple' mentioned here is different from the student in the class.

The kind that can inherit the teacher's will and everything.

Because of his protection, Danzo didn't dare to take action.

As for asking him to observe Uchiha Dohei, he might also want him to take him as his disciple.

There is no better protection than being accepted as a disciple by a top expert.

"...!"

Kakashi didn't answer.

At this time, he had not yet come out of the darkness of his father's death.

If it was Obito or Rin, he might still help, but for people like Dohei and Koji who just got to know their teammates...

I can only say that this is the real ninja world.

It's not like in the anime, where everyone on the side of justice will just act like a jerk.

Fortunately, the river was not fast or deep, so people could easily climb ashore.

The section of the river that was specially used for Genin to practice treading water was naturally not likely to be dangerous.

"Cough, cough!"

Tang Ping spit out a lot of water after climbing ashore.

I just took a few sips, luckily the water was clear, otherwise I would have felt sick.

"Tang Ping, are you okay?"

Yamama Koji, who was also soaked, asked with concern.

Because the other party had taught him and Honda Ying about climbing trees and treading water before (using the Uchiha clan's training method as an excuse), there was no reason for him to forget it now, right?

"No...it's okay!"

Tang Ping waved his hand slightly.

Just now, he just couldn't control it well because his chakra suddenly increased.

Just like when a person's strength suddenly becomes several times stronger, there will be a situation where he cannot control it well.

But once you realize the problem, just be careful.

After completing this D-level mission in the whole morning, the four of them had lunch by the river before they began their formal training.

"Kakashi, your body is still in its developmental stage, so I can only give you some advice on combat experience!"

Namikaze Minato told the training plan he had formulated. "Yes, teacher!"

Kakashi nodded silently.

He has all the skills and ninjutsu, the only thing he lacks is practical experience, otherwise he would not have been defeated by Taichi in the previous assessment.

"Kouji, you have a good foundation. I will teach you the C-level ninjutsu Wind Style: Fierce Wind Palm. Are you willing to learn it?"

Minato Namikaze asked Yamama Koji.

The teaching of ninjutsu is very strict. You can't just learn it whenever you want.

If a ninjutsu is exchanged for contributions to the village, it cannot be taught at will.

Only ninjutsu that are created by oneself or acquired from other channels can be taught freely, otherwise there will be punishment.

"Thank you Minato-sensei!"

Koji Yamama nodded excitedly and seemed extremely excited.

The benefits of having a team leader are evident.

And this is just the team leader teacher. If you are a formal disciple, you can inherit everything from the teacher.

Therefore, the relationship between master and disciple is even closer than that between father and son in the ninja world.

However, there is a dangerous rule in the ninja world.

Kill the master!

The third generation and Orochimaru, Orochimaru and Sasuke, Nagato and Jiraiya, Minato Namikaze and Obito... and so on.

See? These top experts were all killed by their own disciples.

However, most of these are from the 'Hokage system', and other masters and apprentices are not so dangerous.

"If you say so, I will teach you C-rank Fire Style: Flame Bullet!"

Minato Namikaze chose a ninjutsu for Dohei.

Please note that not teaching Kakashi ninjutsu does not mean that Minato Namikaze is biased.

But because there is no need.

His father is White Fang, so Kakashi has no shortage of ninjutsu.

"Thank you Minato-sensei."

Uchiha Dohei was also very excited.

Because ninjutsu is something he is extremely interested in.

However, even if I tried my best before, I could only get the "Summoning Technique". Now I can finally learn real offensive ninjutsu.

Ninjutsu!

Only when you learn it will you realize how complicated it is.

It doesn't mean that you can perform the seals just by knowing the order.

The chakra flow route is the key.

However, if you want the chakra to flow through the meridians, and at a certain speed, it is not easy.

In anime, one can quickly learn ninjutsu, but that is of course not possible in the real ninja world.

Do you think learning ninjutsu means 'ignoring the facts'?

If ninjutsu were really that easy to learn, most Genin wouldn't be without C-level ninjutsu, and even Chunin wouldn't only know one or two.

It is realistic to spend weeks or even years to master C-rank and above ninjutsu.

Of course, this refers to self-study.

It would definitely be much faster if someone taught you.

When studying, the benefits of more chakras are reflected.

For example, in the case of Yamama Koji, one C-level ninjutsu drained his chakra. If it were Dohei now, it would take at least several times to drain it all.

The more chakra you have, the faster you can master ninjutsu.

The reason why the future 'Naruda' was able to quickly master the A-level Multiple Shadow Clone Technique was because he could keep trying.

Chakra is able to do whatever it wants.

Now the same is true for Dohei compared to Koji. His progress is dozens of times faster than his. Half a day is equivalent to his progress in a month. Even Namikaze Minato finds it strange.

Dohei's chakra is actually only a few times more than Koji's.

But if he learns Fire Style, the natural force potion he just injected is made from the future 'Fuso Tree', which of course has a significant bonus to Fire Style.

At this time, he had barely learned the fire bomb.

The future prince learned A-level ninjutsu in less than half an hour when he was the same age, and he learned C-level ninjutsu in half a day. It's not an exaggeration, right?

Well, it’s embarrassing for the time travelers.

After dusk, Tang Ping, who had been training alone, was ready to go back and rest.

Tang Ping's dream is indeed to lie down.

But now that I'm being targeted, I naturally have to find ways to improve my strength.

He doesn't want to just accept his fate when he encounters danger.

However, when passing through a forest, I heard some noise.
