Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 78 begins

While enjoying the delicious pie, I chatted with the two little ones to pass the time.

At the same time, he didn't forget to promote his own method of meditation.

As the saying goes, a single flower does not make a spring; he is already bound to the Uchiha clan. The more powerful the clan members become, the higher his safety level will be.

Although their expressions clearly showed they didn't quite believe this method of cultivation would be effective, it didn't matter. Everyone has their own way of growing; it's enough that they have the intention.

Time flew by and it was already six o'clock.

With a "whoosh," the sound of the Instantaneous Movement Technique cutting through the air at high speed rang out.

"Good morning, Professor Shigemasa!" x3

Upon seeing the familiar green vest of the newcomer, the three greeted him in unison.

"Well! Everyone's here pretty early. Looks like you're really looking forward to this special training!" Uchiha Shigemasa said with a satisfied smile as he looked at the three disciples who had arrived early and were chatting here.

"Teacher, these are pies prepared by 'Kasan'. You can try them; they taste really good!" Upon seeing Teacher Shigemasa arrive, Uchiha Tetsuya quickly took out the pies his mother had prepared from his backpack and handed them to the teacher while they were still hot.

Although he had already eaten breakfast, he did not refuse his disciple's kindness.

"Your mother is so kind; please thank her for me!" Taking the pie from Zhe, Professor Chongzheng smiled and generously took a bite. He praised, "It tastes very good! It seems you have a loving mother!"

Uchiha Shigemasa saw through the fact that Tetsu's mother had prepared breakfast for everyone, hoping to help her son get closer to his classmates and teachers, but kept quiet about it.

This kind of thing is very common in ninja teams. Just like when he invites his students to eat barbecue together, it's also a way to strengthen their bonds.

"Although you've enjoyed a delicious pie, I won't hold back during the training!" After wiping his mouth, Instructor Shigemasa said with a smile. He then announced the first training exercise of the day: "A half-hour high-speed sprint!"

"I'll be right behind you, ready to guide you anytime! Be careful!"

As he spoke, he formed hand seals, creating two shadow clones. Together with his main body, there were three of them, one for each of them, standing behind Toshiro and the others.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

At the same time, he started counting down, it was obvious he was counting down. Once the time was up, he would immediately chase after them.

"Wow! What an exhilarating training session! Bring it on, Mr. Shigemasa, I'll show you what I'm made of!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tetsuya spoke with great passion. Without hesitation, he turned and charged into the dense forest, beginning his rapid sprint.

[This idiot!] X2

Upon seeing this, both Toshiro and Homura cursed inwardly.

Uchiha Tetsuya then rushed out alone, leaving Toshiro and Homura behind.

Doesn't he realize that we'll definitely face pursuit from the teacher in the dense forest later? Without teamwork, our stamina will be quickly depleted.

"Six, five, four..."

Listening to Shigemasa-sensei's unchanging counting, Toshiro and Homura, who remained in place, exchanged a silent glance, then turned to look at the three Shigemasa-sensei teachers before splitting up and rushing off in another direction in the dense forest.

Seeing that the teacher had created two shadow clones plus the main body, it seemed like he was taking care of them individually. With Zhe's "outstanding" performance, it would be extremely difficult for them to cover for each other; they might as well each look after themselves.

[It's really exciting to do such intense exercise right after eating!]

Running through the dense forest, Toshiro glanced back and couldn't help but make a comment.

This kind of training is something he's used to. Every morning, he does an hour of weighted sprints. He happened to skip this training today because he wasn't carrying any weights for the special training, so he considered it a make-up day.

In just a short while, complaints such as "Ouch! That hurts!" and "Teacher, you are so despicable!" could be heard from the forest.

It's obvious that the two guys were caught up by the teacher's clone or main body and attacked them, and unsurprisingly, they were hit.

At the same time, a "thud" came from behind Toshiro, the sound of a shoe sole hitting a tree trunk. Then came a series of "whoosh" sounds as shuriken cut through the air.

Toshiro handled this attack, which clearly carried a sense of "warning," with ease. He paused on a tree trunk beside him, then darted behind a nearby tree, effortlessly using the trunk to dodge the shuriken attack.

Even the secondary attacks launched by the swords after they collided in mid-air and changed their trajectories were easily dodged by him leaping onto the treetops.

In the following days, cries of pain from Tetsuya and Homura could be heard from the forest as they were hit. Meanwhile, Shigemasa, following behind Toshiro, saw that he had dodged the initial attacks, and after the first few waves, his attacks became increasingly frequent and sudden.

This left Toshiro feeling somewhat overwhelmed. His stamina was rapidly depleting, and his breathing became slightly labored.

Half an hour passed in no time. At this moment, in the center of the training field, Toshiro and his two companions, all exhausted, stood in front of their teacher, Shigemasa.

At this moment, Uchiha Tetsuya was drenched in sweat, his breathing becoming increasingly labored and uncontrollable. His face was also bruised and swollen, as if he had received some kind of special treatment.

Uchiha Homura's legs were trembling, and she looked like she could barely stand, as if she might collapse at any moment; her face was somewhat pale. Fortunately, she wasn't like Tetsuya. She looked alright, just somewhat exhausted.

Toshiro was in relatively good condition, but his disheveled clothes, dusty appearance, heaving chest, and sweat on his forehead all indicated that he had just suffered quite a bit.

Just now in the woods, he received special attention from Master Shigemasa. Not only did he receive two-stage attacks with shuriken and kunai, but he also frequently teleported behind him to launch sudden physical attacks.

Its attack power, speed, and rhythm are all significantly different from when it started, and it becomes increasingly difficult to defend against as the attack progresses.

In the end, he had to resort to the "lazy donkey roll" move to narrowly escape disaster.
