I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

Chapter 3 Bold Ideas

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

During the holiday, Liu Sheng, as usual, diligently trained at home.

With a few loud bangs, white mist filled the living room.

When the fog dissipated, two identical versions of himself appeared beside Yagyu.

Immediately, the two shadow clones began their work.

One person sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, practicing hand seals.

The other is to read books and learn knowledge.

As for Yagyu himself, he warmed up on the spot, preparing to start training his body.

"Yagyu, are you home?"

"Yagyu, we've come to visit you!"

Just then, shouts came from outside the balcony.

Upon hearing that familiar voice, a helpless smile immediately appeared on Liu Sheng's face.

He didn't ignore it; instead, he opened the balcony door and looked towards his own front door.

He saw two small figures dressed in winter clothes, wrapped up tightly, waving their small hands covered in cotton gloves at him.

The two figures were girls of the same age as Liu Sheng.

One had blond hair, the other had pink hair, and both had varying shades of green in their eyes.

That's right, they are Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura from the Twelve Young Heroes, both members of Yagyu's current circle.

As the saying goes, cast a wide net and you'll catch many fish.

Before awakening his cheat ability, Yagyu's goal was to be a minor supporting character, leave a deep impression on Naruto before graduation, strive to survive in Shippuden, and then obtain a decent position in Boruto, and marry a beautiful, busty female supporting character would be enough for him.

But to survive, even if you know the plot, you still need a certain amount of luck and skill.

Therefore, all the beauties of this generation became targets for Yagyu.

Ino and Sakura are just one of them.

When he was three years old, Liu Sheng squatted in the snow for several days, just to meet the lost little princess and make a good first impression.

These young ladies and future disciples of the Three Ninjas will benefit Yagyu immensely if they do him even the smallest favor in the future.

If I could latch onto a powerful figure and live off a woman, that would be even better.

Now that they've turned the tables, they no longer need to win their favor just to survive, and Yagyu has no intention of cutting off contact.

I've worked so hard to build up goodwill, how could I possibly give up halfway?

Authors who write essays about sending off women should all be arrested and burned alive.

Once you've gained strength and confidence, you should be bolder in your thinking.

Looking at the two little girls below with rosy cheeks and bright smiles, a famous scene of 'Santa Claus' suddenly popped into Liu Sheng's mind.

So he raised his hand and replied, "Wait a moment, I'll be right down."

After saying that, Liu Sheng went back to his room, put on his winter clothes, ignored the disdainful looks from his two shadow clones, and quickly walked out of the house.

"Yagyu, let's go find some people to have a snowball fight!"

"No, clothes are hard to wash when they're wet."

"It's okay, I'll take it back and wash it for you."

"This is even more terrifying. I'm afraid my uncle will kill me."

"Huh? I helped you do your laundry, so why did Daddy kill you?"

"..."

Walking on the street covered with goose feathers, the lively Ino chatted with Yagyu.

Sakura, who may not yet have awakened her second personality, quietly and shyly watched the two of them.

Refusing Ino's various children's games, Yagyu looked at the villagers shoveling snow and suddenly his eyes lit up. "I've got it! I've thought of a really fun game. Do you want to join me?"

"Okay, okay..."

Ino immediately raised her hand in agreement.

She didn't care what the game was, as long as her playmates were Yagyu and Sakura.

"Mmm..." Sakura nodded repeatedly.

After seeing that they all agreed, Liu Sheng immediately led them away from the main street and into a grove of trees.

Finding a large tree with thick snow at its base, Yagyu smiled at Ino and Sakura and said, "Let's climb this tree."

"Hey... what's so fun about climbing trees!"

Ino, who had been looking forward to it, suddenly looked disappointed.

The same goes for Sakura.

In response, Yagyu couldn't help but laugh and say, "This isn't your average tree climbing."

Under the questioning gazes of the two women, Liu Sheng suddenly formed a mudra with his hands.

Then, he walked towards the big tree.

An unbelievable scene immediately unfolded before Ino and Sakura.

It was as if Liu Sheng's body had broken free from the constraints of gravity, his feet walking freely on the tree trunk, his body suspended in mid-air.

Ino and Sakura stared wide-eyed at Yagyu, having never encountered such a technique before, one that even ninja academies didn't teach.

When Yagyu came down from above, Ino and Sakura, who had come to their senses, looked at him with sparkling eyes.

"Yagyu, how did you do that?"

Ino asked excitedly, "Is this ninjutsu?"

"No, this is just a method of controlling chakra."

Yagyu lied without blinking, saying, "When I was cleaning the house a while ago, I accidentally found my father's ninja diary, which recorded his ninja life. That's when I learned that the ninjas' techniques for scaling walls and leaping across rooftops were actually about gathering chakra in their feet."

"It took me a long time to practice before I learned this skill."

"I see."

Ino and Sakura suddenly realized.

"Gather chakra in my legs? I'll give it a try."

Ino said with great interest, and then, like Yagyu, she formed a mudra with her hands, gathered chakra in her feet, and walked towards the big tree.

However, as soon as Ino stepped on the tree bark and lifted her other foot, her body fell backward.

Before Ino could cry out in surprise, a hand was placed on her back, supporting her leaning body.

"Stay focused, control your chakra to hold onto the tree trunk."

After reminding him, Yagyu smiled and comforted him, "Don't be afraid of falling, I'll catch you."

"Um!"

Ino, who had initially looked terrified, suddenly became excited.

Then she began to try again and again, falling backward each time, either being caught by Yagyu's hand or falling into his arms.

When her chakra was almost depleted, Ino finally managed to lift her feet off the ground, walk a few steps on the tree, and then fall down.

"I did it, Yagyu! I did it!"

Ino, who had fallen into Yagyu's arms, shouted excitedly.

"Impressive. I couldn't lift my feet off the ground until the second day. Ino, you're much faster than me."

Liu Sheng first showered him with praise, then poured cold water on his enthusiasm, saying, "But this isn't enough to be considered a success. You'll only truly succeed when you can walk freely on trees, walls, and even water."

Upon hearing this, Ino instantly regained her composure.

But her beautiful eyes sparkled brightly as she said to Yagyu, "Yagyu, this game is so much fun!"
