Not having stayed up late, Kawaki still woke up quite early the next day.
He caught up with breakfast. When he arrived at the dining room, everyone was already seated.
Even if he didn't come, no one would call him.
"Humph~"
Sakumo snorted without saying a word. What happened yesterday wouldn't be easily forgotten.
There were too many young people around now. If he brought it up, it would be too embarrassing for himself.
It would make him seem like he had a low IQ, which Sakumo couldn't tolerate.
"Morning!"
Kawaki sat down with a mischievous smile, not caring about Sakumo's snort.
"Good morning, teacher." x4
The four kids were sitting obediently tucking into their food. Konan was getting cuter as she grew up.
Yahiko kept getting food for Konan on one side, as if Konan didn't have hands.
Nagato, seeing his two friends like this, even had a hint of a smile on his lips.
Seeing Nagato like this, Kawaki understood why, in the original plot, Nagato remained single.
This guy was completely oblivious, or he simply didn't have that kind of affection for Konan at all.
"I'll check your training progress later. Eat more so you'll have the strength."
Kawaki finally had time today to guide his disciples and fulfill his duty as a teacher.
There's no need to assess Minato's strength. His performance in the war is the best illustration of it.
"Okay, got it." x3
The Three Young Ones of Nagato agreed and sped up tucking into their food.
Minato kindly whispered for them to cheer up.
"Yo, you still remember to take care of your disciples?"
Sakumo didn't want to miss any chance to attack Kawaki, and his snotty tone really got on one's nerves.
"Well, I've been busy."
Kawaki was too embarrassed to say that he had seriously taught them. It was obvious.
Most of them were left to fend for themselves. He was happily acting as Master Kawaki without any pressure.
"Busy, hehe~"
Sakumo didn't say more. Kawaki naturally understood what he meant.
"Can you two be quiet while eating?"
"Fight after the meal if you have something to fight about."
Natsuki rebuked both of them helplessly. Without her, this family would fall apart.
"Sure, listen to you."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
Kawaki and Sakumo glanced at each other, with sparks in their eyes.
After everyone finished their meal quietly, Kawaki took the three kids to the martial arts training hall.
Sakumo also came over with Kakashi in his arms to watch.
It was time to see how much progress they had made.
The three kids stood in a row according to their height and straightened their backs looking at Kawaki in front of them.
"Konan, you're the youngest. You go first."
Kawaki motioned for Konan to step forward. The little girl had grown quite a bit.
Her light blue - purple hair was tied into a bun on top of her head, looking cute and playful.
"Teacher, the new ninjutsu I developed is called Dance of the Shikigami[b]Dance of the Shikigami[/b]."
As she said that, without making any hand seals, her body turned into countless paper-like fragments, floated forward and then recombined into a human form.
"It's a very interesting jutsu."
"Is it not fully developed yet?"
Kawaki knew this was Konan's signature move, which could be used in many aspects such as combat and reconnaissance.
It could basically be immune to physical damage, but it was afraid of oil. Once soaked, she couldn't use it.
"Yes, teacher."
"I'm still working on perfecting it."
Konan flashed a beautiful smile. She was very happy to receive her teacher's affirmation.
Sakumo was a bit stunned. Could a disciple he picked up casually create such a powerful Ninjutsu?
With his experience, he naturally saw the peculiarity and power of Konan's Ninjutsu.
The younger brother is really lucky as hell.
Kakashi watched Konan dashing back and forth and clapped his hands gleefully.
Konan often used this move to amuse him.
"Nagato, it's your turn."
Kawaki called out Nagato, wanting to see how much progress he had made.
What Minato said is also true. Ninjutsu is not suitable for practice at home.
He usually went to a training ground far away.
"Teacher, me too."
Yahiko quickly chimed in. If he flooded the martial arts training hall, he would definitely be in trouble.
"This is easy to solve."
Kawaki put his hands on the shoulders of the two kids and disappeared from the spot.
When they reappeared, they were already at a remote training ground.
It was no exaggeration to say that Konoha was his home turf.
"This place is good. What do you think?"
Kawaki let go of the two. This was a place he often came to when he was a child.
He had also fought with Sakumo here many times.
"Okay." x2
Nagato and Yahiko nodded.
"You two have a fight. Don't just show your skills one by one."
Kawaki directly asked the two to have a spar. Actual combat could better show their level.
"Okay."
Yahiko agreed first. Nagato was still a bit hesitant.
His Rinnegan already had some power, but he couldn't control it freely yet. He was afraid of hurting Yahiko.
"Don't worry. I also want to see how well you've mastered it."
Kawaki ruffled Nagato's red hair.
"Okay~"
Nagato then agreed. With the teacher around, he didn't have to worry about hurting Yahiko.
The two separated and stood at a distance. Yahiko took the initiative to launch an attack.
"Nagato, be careful."
"Water Release: Water Turbulence Wave[b]Water Release: Water Turbulence Wave[/b]"
After forming the Hand Seal, Yahiko spat out a small pool of water from his mouth and attacked Nagato.
Judging from the size of the water pool, Kawaki could see that Yahiko had good Chakra Control.
There was no waste at all. As a probing attack, it was sufficient.
Nagato dodged Yahiko's Water Release[b]Water Release[/b] technique with a quick sidestep.
His body was much stronger than in the original plot. He didn't practice swordsmanship deliberately, but he did practice it occasionally.
"Earth Release: Earth Spear Pillars[b]Earth Release: Earth Spear Pillars[/b]"
Earth restrains Water. Nagato immediately counterattacked with an Earth Release[b]Earth Release[/b] technique, and suddenly, many sharp rocks protruded from the ground under Yahiko's feet. Had he not dodged quickly, this move would have disabled him.
"Don't underestimate me."
A faint smile appeared on Yahiko's lips. He had long wanted to have a spar with Nagato.
But for his safety, Nagato had always refused. Today, he could finally have a good fight.
"I won't hold back."
Nagato's voice came over. Going all out was also a sign of respect for Yahiko.
Kawaki watched as the two exchanged Ninjutsu attacks. Yahiko had a good grasp of the timing when using his Water Release[b]Water Release[/b] techniques, but they were rather one - dimensional.
Nagato continuously used five different elemental jutsus and quickly suppressed Yahiko.
Yahiko managed to keep from losing for the time being, solely counting on his speed.
Well, Kawaki was fairly satisfied with the progress of the two young ones. So he could have called off the match.
However, Kawaki wanted to see if Nagato could use his Rinnegan[b]Rinnegan[/b] yet.
Yahiko spotted a momentary opening in Nagato's defenses as he charged forward and unleashed his most powerful Water Release[b]Water Release[/b] jutsu.
In Kawaki's view, it was just so - so. After all, they were still young.
Nagato felt a sense of impending danger, and his eyes involuntarily grew hot.
Without thinking, he raised his hand.
Yahiko's Water Release[b]Water Release[/b] was instantly repelled. Yahiko, who was charging towards Nagato with his sword, was utterly shocked.
"Shinra Tensei[b]Shinra Tensei[/b]."
Kawaki murmured to himself. He saw it clearly.
This was one of the abilities of the Rinnegan[b]Rinnegan[/b], with a five - second cooldown.
Shinra Tensei[b]Shinra Tensei[/b] could repel all objects and ninjutsu in the vicinity centered around the caster and inflict damage on them.
"Yahiko!"
Nagato exclaimed in surprise. He didn't expect his jutsu to activate on its own.
When the Water Release[b]Water Release[/b] dissipated, he saw Yahiko gasping for breath beside Kawaki. It really gave him a fright.
"Good job!"
Yahiko gave Nagato a thumbs up as he ran over. He was happy rather than jealous that his friend was stronger than him.
"I'm glad you're okay."
Nagato let out a sigh of relief seeing Yahiko unharmed.
"Can't you fully control that jutsu yet?"
Kawaki looked at Nagato. With Shinra Tensei[b]Shinra Tensei[/b] and Universal Pull[b]Universal Pull[/b], he was already on the path to becoming a powerful ninja.
The more he developed the Rinnegan[b]Rinnegan[/b], the stronger he would become.
"Not yet."
Nagato shook his head.
"Don't be discouraged. We have time."
Kawaki knew these were Madara's eyes, and Nagato could only master them through time.
"Yeah, got it."
"Let's go back."
Kawaki did the same as before, putting his hands on the shoulders of the two young ones. The next moment, the three of them were back in the martial arts training hall.
BANG!!
As soon as they arrived, they heard a loud noise. A large tree in the martial arts training hall groaned and fell.
Sakumo was just watching the fun. Now, he quickly grabbed Kakashi and moved far away from Minato.
It was too dangerous. What kind of crazy ninjutsu was this!
Then they heard Minato's excited shouts.
"I did it!"
"I did it!"
Kawaki looked over and saw the broken tree. The break was a circular hole.
This is the result of the Rasengan[b]Rasengan[/b]!
"Teacher, I've developed a new ninjutsu!"
Minato immediately shared his good news with Kawaki. It had taken him two years to finally complete the ninjutsu that his teacher had mentioned.
Only he knew how much effort he had put into it.
"Well done! I knew you could do it."
Besides giving his praise, Kawaki didn't do much else.
After all, he hadn't provided much help.
"Teacher, I've decided to name this jutsu - Kawaki - inspired Dual - style Light - wheel Ice - stick Spiral Pill[b]Kawaki - inspired Dual - style Light - wheel Ice - stick Spiral Pill[/b]!"
Minato said proudly, clearly very satisfied with the name he had come up with.
"Wait, what did you say?"
Kawaki's eyes widened. He couldn't even remember it after one listen. What a ridiculously long name!
Minato's talent for naming things was truly legendary.
"Call..."
Minato repeated it again without any mistakes.
"Senior Minato, don't you think this name is a bit stupid?"
Konan stuck out her little finger, pinching out a [point].
"Ha ha~" x2
Yahiko and Nagato burst out laughing. Only Konan dared to say so. They had been holding it in for so long.
"Really? I think it sounds nice."
"Or we could change it..."
Minato scratched his head and was about to come up with another name.
It was nothing to him. He thought his talent for naming was even better than his talent for cultivation.
"Stop. I think we'll call it Rasengan[b]Rasengan[/b]."
"How about it?"
Kawaki wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Good grief, Minato was really scary when it came to naming.
"I think it's good."
"At least it's better than the one Senior Minato just came up with."
Konan immediately sided with the teacher.
"I agree." x2
Nagato and Yahiko then raised their hands to show their agreement.
"Then, then let's listen to the teacher."
Minato was obviously a bit depressed. Wasn't the name he thought of nice enough?
"Is the name I came up with really not nice?"
Minato asked again, not giving up, looking at the others with expectant eyes.
"Ahem, it's just a bit of a mouthful. You're good at naming."
Kawaki lied to Minato with a clear conscience. After all, he's still a child.
"That's good."
Minato instantly regained his smile. Right now, this little fellow was really cute and innocent.
