I teach in Naruto, and the system says I am Tsunade's student

Chapter 181 Sasuke's Confidence Continues to Inflate (First and Second Updates)

"Naruto!"

After a few minutes of fighting, Rock Lee created some distance, caught his breath, and shouted, "Go all out!"

Although Naruto Uzumaki didn't hold back in taijutsu and kept pressing him, he didn't use the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

"But……"

Naruto Uzumaki hesitated.

In his view, using the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique would no longer be a battle between pure taijutsu ninjas.

"Youth is about giving it your all!"

Rock Lee gave a thumbs up and said, "And Guy taught me a new ninja tool to counter your Shadow Clone Technique."

"You're right!"

Naruto Uzumaki flashed his teeth and exclaimed excitedly, "Fighting with all your might is what youth is all about!"

"It's called nunchucks."

Rock Lee took out his nunchucks and introduced them.

"What a peculiar ninja tool!"

Naruto Uzumaki looked him over and asked, "When did you learn that? I didn't even know."

"A month ago."

Rock Lee held the nunchucks, twirled them, and said.

"I see."

Naruto Uzumaki's face showed a look of realization.

He's been busy practicing Rasengan at school for the past month, so it's normal that he didn't know Rock Lee had learned nunchaku.

"bring it on!"

Naruto Uzumaki shouted, "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Bang bang bang!
Amidst the smoke, all thirty shadow clones appeared.

A gasp of surprise erupted from the audience.

Many people were seeing Naruto Uzumaki use the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique for the first time, and were stunned.

"what?"

Yu Nu Zhiwei was dumbfounded.

He could accept that Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee had previously demonstrated taijutsu far exceeding that of genin.

But what on earth is this Multiple Shadow Clone Technique?

Creating thirty shadow clones at once is something even he would find difficult, or at least barely manage.

However, he usually wouldn't do that because it would be pointless.

Shadow clones take away the original body's chakra.

For many people, having more shadow clones actually weakens their strength.

There's only one explanation for Naruto creating so many shadow clones.

That means he still has a lot of chakra left.

When Yu Nu Zhiwei thought about how he was only seven years old, he felt like he had wasted his life.

"So much chakra?"

Yakushi Nonou asked with a surprised look.

She had seen many ninjas with a lot of chakra, but they were all adults and had reached their peak.

She had never seen anyone so young possess so much chakra before.

"I think he is a member of the Uzumaki clan."

Kabuto looked at Naruto, his glasses gleaming.

"Don't the members of the Uzumaki clan have red hair?"

Yakushi Nonou paused slightly and asked.

"Maybe he's mixed race."

Kabuto thought of Karin, who had trained with them.

She also has a lot of chakra.

"Don't say things like that to outsiders."

"I'm giving you some instructions," said Yakushi Nonou.

It involves the annihilated Uzumaki clan, so there must be many secrets involved.

She had already left Root and didn't want to get involved in any more trouble. She just wanted to live a peaceful life as a medical ninja at Konoha Hospital.

"I see."

Kabuto nodded and said.

"Konoha Tornado!"

"Power Prelude!"

"Konoha's powerful whirlwind!"

Including the original Naruto, thirty-one Narutos charged towards Rock Lee.

In an instant, they were plunged into a fierce battle.

But as he said, nunchucks do have a certain restraining effect on shadow clones.

The nunchucks spun in Rock Lee's hands.

With each strike, a shadow clone could be heard screaming in agony.

"This ninja tool is truly powerful!"

Naruto Uzumaki quickly dodged the blow, forming hand seals and shouting, "Again! Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

A puff of smoke appeared, and thirty more shadow clones appeared.

After being taught by Kitazawa, Naruto Uzumaki stopped creating hundreds of shadow clones at once.

Because of so many shadow clones, only a few can actually hit the enemy.

Unless long-range tactics are employed.

However, Naruto Uzumaki did not intend to use ranged tactics against Rock Lee.

One reason is that Rock Lee is a taijutsu ninja, and when faced with ranged attacks, he can only passively take hits, which is extremely unsportsmanlike.

On the other hand, Naruto Uzumaki felt that he could win without using ranged tactics.

Although the nunchucks did put pressure on him, it wasn't enough.

The spectators were ninjas who had come to watch the match.

The students taking the exam stood on both sides of the playground.

"I never imagined that Xiao Li would become so strong."

Tian Tian sighed.

Neji Hyuga didn't speak, but mentally simulated how to deal with the nunchucks.

Nunchucks pose a great threat to unarmed ninjas who rely on taijutsu (physical martial arts).

But Neji Hyuga still believed it would be his victory.

Because he was faster than Rock Lee.

All he needed to do was strike his pressure point before the nunchucks hit him.

"It's a pity Naruto has too much chakra, Rock Lee can't win."

Kiba Inuzuka shook his head and said.

At the same time, he conducted a simulation, just like Neji Hyuga.

But he was identifying with Rock Lee.

He felt that if he encountered Naruto Uzumaki, he would be in the same predicament as Hellhound.

Either he defeats Naruto's main body with his Hellhound, or Naruto's shadow clones exhaust his chakra.

Uchiha Sasuke had a different idea.

Because he discovered that Naruto Uzumaki only used thirty shadow clones.

When we sparred last time, we always started with fifty or one hundred.

However, the quantity doesn't matter.

Since defeating Naruto Uzumaki last time, Sasuke Uchiha no longer felt that Naruto's Multiple Shadow Clone Technique posed any threat.

He can handle it with a single shuriken technique.

"Lee did his best, but he was just unlucky to run into Naruto."

Yamanaka Ino paused for a moment, then said, "If he had a different opponent, he definitely wouldn't have lost."

She found it difficult to beat Lee Rock.

As a taijutsu ninja, his speed was too fast to give her a chance to use her secret techniques.

"It's almost over. Naruto has figured out the nunchaku's attack methods."

Shino Aburame adjusted her glasses and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the situation on the field changed.

Rock Lee was already showing signs of exhaustion.

After a moment of disarray, Naruto Uzumaki seized the opportunity.

His two shadow clones stepped forward and grabbed Rock Lee's nunchucks.

At the same time, two other shadow clones grabbed his thighs from the left and right.

In an instant, Rock Lee was overwhelmed by four Naruto Uzumakis, his body covered in sweat.

He struggled desperately, but could not break free.

"Power Prelude!"

Naruto Uzumaki, in his true form, unleashed a finishing flying kick.

Lee Rock took the kick hard, feeling the pain spread throughout his body.

If it weren't for Naruto's shadow clones, he probably would have been sent flying backwards and fainted on the ground.

"I...I give up."

Lee Rock gave up struggling and said.

"Xiao Li, how are you?"

Upon hearing this, Naruto immediately dispelled the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and asked.

"I am fine."

Rock Lee gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "This battle was truly exhilarating!"

"This is the bond of youth!"

Naruto Uzumaki responded excitedly, "Let's have another exhilarating youthful showdown next time!"

"That `s a deal!"

Rock Lee sensed his fighting spirit and couldn't help but smile.

"The victor is Naruto Uzumaki!"

Kitazawa promptly announced.

He was afraid that the two of them would end up hugging each other and crying their eyes out while they were talking.

"Kakashi, what do you think of my two students?"

Matt Kay asked with a smug look on his face.

Although Rock Lee lost, he was still honorable in defeat.

In terms of taijutsu (physical skills), there are no two students in the entire ninja academy who are better than him.

Considering his age, he can definitely be called a physical prodigy.

"Okay."

Kakashi Hatake glanced at him and said calmly, "If Naruto were handed over to me, he would be even stronger."

He wasn't exaggerating.

He knows all of Might Guy's taijutsu, and he's even learned a bit of the Eight Gates.

But he has ninjutsu that Might Guy doesn't.

With Naruto's chakra reserves, he would have a significant advantage whether learning ninjutsu or taijutsu.

In Kakashi Hatake's view, focusing solely on taijutsu was a waste of his chakra.

After all, taijutsu consumes less chakra than ninjutsu.

"Truly my nemesis!"

Matt Kay gave a thumbs up, then pointed out another blind spot: "What about Little Lee?"

"..."

Kakashi Hatake fell silent.

He could tell that Rock Lee was a carbon copy of Matt Kay.

If he were to teach Rock Lee, he certainly wouldn't be as good as Matt Kay.

"Ha ha!"

Seeing this, Matt Kay laughed and said, "It seems we're evenly matched when it comes to teaching students!"

Kakashi Hatake was better at teaching Naruto than Naruto Uzumaki, but he was not as good at teaching Rock Lee.

"..."

Kakashi Hatake's lips twitched.

It's quite impressive that Matt Kay can bring up their rivalry in everything.

"Hey, don't forget Kitazawa's contribution!"

Kurenai couldn't help but say, "Naruto has been participating in Kitazawa's special training all along!" Kakashi Hatake nodded slightly.

That being said, he still felt that the current Naruto Uzumaki was not impressive enough.

He's winning now only because he has a lot of chakra.

I wonder if there will be even more surprises for him later.

The first row of the audience seats.

"Tsunade, what do you think?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was very satisfied with Naruto Uzumaki's performance and asked with a smile.

"It has the air of Kushina."

Tsunade thought for a moment and then commented.

Like Naruto Uzumaki, Kushina Uzumaki had a lot of chakra.

Besides that, his fighting style is very reckless.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was somewhat helpless upon hearing this.

He originally wanted Naruto Uzumaki to become the second Minato Namikaze, but things didn't go as planned.

In his view, Li Dazhuanfei's style was too one-dimensional and easily targeted.

He prefers Minato Namikaze's fighting style, which is more stable.

Judging from the current situation, it seems unlikely that Naruto Uzumaki will be able to learn it.

"Now let's begin the second match."

Kitazawa reached out and took out two small slips of paper from the lottery box.

Although he was in charge of the elite tournament, high-quality battles like the one between Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee were not common.

The ninjas watching the battle also realized what was happening.

After all, no matter how skilled they are, they are still students of the Ninja Academy.

"The seventh match: Uchiha Sasuke versus Inuzuka Hana!"

After Kitazawa made the announcement, many viewers were invigorated.

Because they heard the name Uchiha Sasuke.

This is Fugaku Uchiha's son, Itachi Uchiha's younger brother, and a genius of the Uchiha clan.

Kitazawa did not engage in any underhanded dealings.

There's a saying that goes, "To destroy a man, you must first make him mad."

The more arrogant Sasuke Uchiha became, the more profound his later defeats were.

It would be more beneficial to let him win one round first.

"Go, sis!"

Kiba Inuzuka waved and called out to Hana Inuzuka, who was not far away.

"Tooth, who's stronger, you or your sister?"

Sakura Haruno glanced at Sasuke Uchiha and asked, trying to gather information.

"Of course it is me!"

Kiba Inuzuka said without hesitation.

"That's okay."

Sakura Haruno breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

Kiba Inuzuka realized what was happening and corrected him, saying, "I meant I'm stronger now, but my sister is stronger than I used to be!"

"What's the difference between you now and you before?"

Naruto scratched his head, not understanding.

"What special training did Teacher Kitazawa give you to make you so confident?"

Nara Shikamaru understood and asked curiously.

"secret."

Kiba Inuzuka smirked and said, "You'll definitely be surprised."

"It doesn't matter."

Uchiha Sasuke entered the arena with his hands in his pockets and a cool expression on his face.

He didn't take either Inuzuka Hana or Inuzuka Kiba seriously.

"How come your sister has three ninja dogs?"

Yamanaka Ino asked with some surprise when she saw Inuzuka Hana and the three gray ninja dogs enter the arena.

"They are triplets, and they work together so well that we didn't separate them."

Kiba Inuzuka explained.

"Game start!"

Kitazawa announced.

"Grey pill!"

Inuzuka Hana used all her strength right from the start.

Orc clones!

The ninja dog named Haimaru transformed into a clone that looked exactly like her.

Teeth to teeth!

The two Inuzuka flowers transformed into a tornado and attacked Uchiha Sasuke at an extremely fast speed.

The remaining two ninja dogs followed closely behind, opening their mouths wide to reveal their sharp teeth.

In the original work, Fang Over Fang is a ninjutsu that Kiba Inuzuka often uses.

Like the Rasengan and Chidori, it was jokingly called a tooth-to-tooth technique that was used until the very end.

However, Fang Over Fang was not a ninjutsu created by Kiba Inuzuka; Tsurugi Inuzuka also used it.

Uchiha Sasuke stood still, calmly activating his Sharingan.

The tooth-to-tooth process, which was originally as fast as lightning, slowed down.

Art fire escape ho fireball!
Uchiha Sasuke opened his mouth and spat out a large fireball.

Inuzuka Hana and the three ninja dogs had no choice but to dodge to the sides.

Konoha whirlwind!

Uchiha Sasuke took a step forward and kicked Inuzuka Hana on his left.

A whimper.

When Inuzuka Hana was kicked, her true form was revealed; it was none other than Haimaru from before.

The sound of breaking wind was heard.

Without Haimaru, Inuzuka Hana didn't stop and charged at Uchiha Sasuke.

Uchiha Sasuke turned around and met her fierce gaze.

But the next second, his illusion was released.

Inuzuka Hana froze on the spot.

She felt flames suddenly spring up inside her, then engulf her, and she screamed in agony.

It is the illusion technique, Shiranui.

Sasuke Uchiha calmly took out a kunai and held it to Hana Inuzuka's neck.

The three ninja dogs that rushed up to protect their master immediately stopped in their tracks.

Seeing this, Uchiha Sasuke helped Inuzuka Hana break free from the genjutsu.

"So many...wait, the fire's gone?"

After breaking free from the illusion, Inuzuka Hana instinctively patted herself.

"It's an illusion."

Uchiha Sasuke said in a calm tone.

"I see."

Hana Inuzuka took a deep breath and said, "I surrender."

"Ah."

Sasuke Uchiha nodded and coolly left the field.

"Sasuke-kun, you're so cool!"

Sakura Haruno immediately transformed into a fangirl, excitedly shouting.

"Illusions are really troublesome."

Kiba Inuzuka knew that Hana Inuzuka's defeat was not unjust.

But he soon discovered that his hellhound wasn't so afraid of illusions.

Because hellhounds have two heads, they also have two consciousnesses.

One dog head is under an illusion, but the other dog head can help.

Unless both dog heads are simultaneously under an illusion.

The first row of the audience seats.

"not bad."

Fugaku Uchiha nodded and said.

Whether it was Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique or Genjutsu: Shiranui, Sasuke Uchiha used them perfectly.

"Sasuke has done a perfect job, considering he's only seven years old."

Uchiha Mikoto said with a big smile.

"Indeed."

Uchiha Itachi chimed in, "I didn't even know the genjutsu Shiranui when I was seven years old."

He didn't open his eyes until he was eight years old, so naturally he wouldn't have opened them at seven.

"After all, he is my son."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha smiled and said...

He was actually quite satisfied with Sasuke Uchiha's performance.

However, as the head of a clan, one must maintain a certain level of authority and cannot praise people indiscriminately.

"The eighth match is between Kiba Inuzuka and Neji Hyuga."

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and said.

He didn't do anything underhanded; it's just that Kiba Inuzuka was unlucky.

Fortunately, the practical exam doesn't advance to the next round based solely on the winner; even the loser can advance if they perform well.

"what?"

Kiba Inuzuka's eyes widened as he asked, "How could it be Neji?"

"Congratulations on winning the grand prize."

Nara Shikamaru patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Didn't you participate in Kitazawa-sensei's special training?"

Yamanaka Ino said with a smile, "Bring out your secret weapon."

"You're right, I'm not that easy to lose!"

Kiba Inuzuka clenched his fist and said.

Hyuga Neji glanced at him, a sense of curiosity also lingering within him.

But that's okay, you'll see it soon.

Two people went on stage.

"Is Kiba Inuzuka the younger brother of Hana Inuzuka?"

Why didn't he bring his ninja dogs?

"Whether he brings ninja dogs or not makes no difference; his opponent is Hyuga Neji, the super genius of the Hyuga clan!"

Many viewers started discussing it.

Because Inuzuka Hana had just played in the last match, they didn't have high hopes for Inuzuka Kiba, who didn't have a dog.

After taking the stage, Hyuga Neji adopted a Gentle Fist stance.

Just as he was about to launch an attack, he suddenly stopped.

Because a ferocious two-headed dog, over two meters tall, appeared in front of him.

"what?"

Naruto's eyes widened as he asked, "How did Kiba turn into a dog? It's huge!"

"Is this Kitazawa-sensei's special training?"

Yamanaka Ino asked in astonishment.

"The Inuzuka clan's secret technique is the fusion of a human and a ninja dog. This is the first time I've seen a human fusion with a shadow clone."

Nara Shikamaru was at a loss for words.

"So, this secret technique was created by Kitazawa-sensei?"

Aburame Shino asked in surprise.

The others also made the same expression.

The difference in difficulty between learning ninjutsu and creating your own ninjutsu is like night and day.

None of them expected Kitazawa to have such talent.
