Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Arai claimed he was protecting Yubi and Sasori to complete their mission, but in reality, after returning to the base, he and the two completely separated from the team's operations.

Aside from routinely patrolling the area to ensure there were no suspicious targets, Arai spent most of his time instructing Yubi on his training.

As for the scorpions... they were completely left to their own devices.

"You are a medical ninja, capable of using medical ninjutsu. Currently, your chakra transformation is of a mild nature, belonging to Yang Release. Therefore... training other types of ninjutsu will likely be more difficult."

"Most ninjas are born with a certain chakra nature, which they can easily learn through training... but this is not absolute. By the time they reach the Jonin stage, most can transform two types of chakra... but the ability and proficiency, including the power of the ninjutsu they use, vary from person to person. For some, even if they have mastered several chakra natures, due to their bloodline, the power of other ninjutsu they use may be very limited, except for the chakra nature they inherited... so even if they know multiple ninjutsu, they don't use them much due to their established fighting style and template."

On a patch of ground in the canyon, Arai and Yubi had just sparred.

As the Third Kazekage's personal bodyguard, Arai was considered one of the stronger ninjas, even among Jonin.

He is an elite Jonin.

Therefore, even though Yubi tried his best, he couldn't gain any advantage.

In the blink of an eye, a kunai was placed against his neck by the other party.

"I can't guide you in medical ninjutsu, since that's not my forte... But as a medical ninja, because of the nature of your chakra, if you want to increase your strength, you must rely on other methods. Wind, fire, lightning, earth, and water-based ninjutsu aren't suitable for you... Even if you master one of these natures in the future, the power of your ninjutsu won't be very high. So, you can only work on taijutsu, ninja tools, and other ninjutsu... Medical ninjas are far superior to other ninjas in terms of chakra control and maintenance, which perfectly matches the requirements of a puppeteer, just like Granny Chiyo. If you want, I believe you are fully qualified to become a puppeteer. Even if you can't reach the top level, it will be enough to increase your strength."

Arai smiled.

In fact, Yubi had already considered all of this.

He also had a thorough understanding of factors related to chakra.

Tsunade, as a medical ninja, relies on her overwhelming taijutsu and physical strength.

Chiyo, on the other hand, is skilled in puppetry.

Both of these are one of the ways to advance as a medical ninja.

Seeing Yubi's expression, Arai said, "Judging from your expression, it seems you have no intention of becoming a puppeteer... What you want to improve is your physical skills, right?"

Even after just a few exchanges, Arai's keen eye could tell that Yubi's body had undergone rigorous training and refinement... clearly indicating that he intended to pursue a martial arts path.

Yang Dun is a manifestation of the life force of flesh and blood.

"No, it's not that... I train my body just to increase my chakra reserves," Yubi scratched his head, smiled slightly, and explained.

Chakra is the life energy of the body and mind, originating from 130 trillion cells throughout the body, and to some extent, it is also closely related to physical strength.

"Hmm... Indeed, at your age, your chakra level, including its mobilization and response speed, far surpasses that of your peers."

Arai stroked his chin and commented.

This is because when Yubi was honing his physical body, he wasn't simply pursuing strength or muscle, but rather using breathing techniques, and even intentionally training his internal organs and meridians.

For ninjas, meridians are the "channels" through which chakra is mobilized... It is also the basis for the Hyuga clan's use of Byakugan to strike pressure points, which can block the enemy's use of chakra once pressure points are struck.

Therefore, meridians are also very important to ninjas.

"Did you develop this martial art technique on your own?"

Arai asked again.

When he fought Yubi just now, he clearly noticed Yubi's very keen observation skills, which seemed to be able to predict his movements... That's pretty impressive.

"I'm a doctor... How should I put it? Because I have a very deep understanding of the human body, you could call it an innate intuition. I can roughly deduce a person's physical strength, speed, and other physical states just by looking at them. Including during combat, I can also calculate some subtle physical states by observing them. Of course, my martial arts skills are only effective against those of average skill levels. Someone like Mr. Arai is completely helpless against them. Because for a strong person, their performance in battle cannot be predicted by simple physical data."

Yubi laughed.

In other words, his data-driven physical skills are only good enough to deal with newbies.

Furthermore... his physical skills rely not only on a doctor's intuition, but also purely on his understanding of the power system of this world.

That is, the database in his mind.

Of course, there's no way to tell Arai this.

You can't exactly say he traveled from another world; in his original world, Naruto was just an anime...

"hiss."

However, his words still made Arai's eyelids twitch.

"As expected, those who can become medical ninjas are all extraordinary..." Arai sighed.

"It's not that amazing."

Yubi said modestly.

"It seems you have a clear plan for your fighting style and growth direction... In that case, there's nothing more I can teach you. The only thing I can do is to improve your physical skills and combat experience through sparring in the coming period."

Arai's eyes held a complex expression.

At the same age as Yubi, he was still thinking about having fun... He still has a childlike heart.

Their thinking is far from mature, and they have no clear understanding or judgment about their own future.

Compared to this, Arai couldn't help but sigh, sometimes, people really can't be compared.

So this is what they call a genius...

"Let's continue."

Arai said solemnly.

"Yes."

Yubi nodded.

Then, Arai's figure flashed and disappeared from Yubi's sight.

Yubi gripped her scalpel and assumed a fighting stance.

"Battles between ninjas sometimes cannot be judged solely by the naked eye, because your senses may deceive you... Therefore, more often than not, you need to rely on... the intuition cultivated in battle, which includes the perception of chakra... The transfer and release of energy do not lie."

Yubi's eyes darted around, just as he was getting into position for defense.

But the next second, Arai appeared behind him, giving him instructions.

Yubi, however, failed to detect any trace of the other party.

With a snap.

Arai slapped Yubi on the neck; if this were on the battlefield, Yubi would already be a corpse.

"So strong."

Yubi sighed.

This is what an elite Jonin looks like... There's absolutely no flaw in his defense.

The term "elite" only applies to the Jonin level; there is no such designation for Genin or Chunin.

There are also special Jonin... which refers to Jonin who have special talents in a certain area, but whose overall strength is relatively average.

And serving as a Jonin... This title means serving at the Ninja Academy and leading a rookie squad.

The ranking of ninjas is sometimes not based on strength; the situation is quite complex.

Just like the different villages have different standards for measuring ninja ranks.

Among these, the standards of the Five Great Ninja Villages are definitely the highest, but the most prestigious is undoubtedly Konoha.

It's not because Konoha is the main stage of this world, but because many of the systems and rules in the ninja world were first established by Konoha, and other villages simply followed suit.

"Again!"

"Yes."
