"That's not Might Guy, that's Might Guy's father, Might Duy," Uchiha En said.
"Might Duy? So that's it! This father and son really look alike! They wear the same clothes and look identical. I thought Might Guy had grown up overnight," Yamanaka Teruzuki grumbled.
Uchiha En was more concerned about the hidden injuries on Might Duy that Aburame Shibi had just mentioned than Yamanaka Teruzuki was about the father and son's appearance and attire: "Teacher Shibi, you just said Might Duy has hidden injuries. Are those hidden injuries due to carrying weights?"
"It's not just because of the weights. Like his son, Might Duy put all his energy into Taijutsu training, and the training volume was immense. Such prolonged training combined with a lack of proper training methods led to Might Duy constantly sustaining major and minor injuries.
After years of accumulation, these injuries eventually evolved into various hidden injuries.
So, En, exercising is fine, but you must pay attention to the method and the training volume. With your current physical fitness, you can only carry a maximum of 20 jin of weighted gear. Any more and you might end up with hidden dangers like Might Duy."
"Teacher Shibi, since Might Duy trains Taijutsu desperately day after day for decades, his Taijutsu should be very strong, right?" asked Asana, who also focused primarily on Taijutsu improvement.
"His Taijutsu is indeed very strong. Few people in the Village can surpass him in Taijutsu. However, being a Ninja is not just about having strong Taijutsu.
Furthermore, Might Duy doesn't possess a Bloodline Limit like the Hyuga Clan to assist his Taijutsu, so his overall strength isn't considered high.
Take me, for example; I have dozens of ways to defeat Might Duy."
After hearing Aburame Shibi's words, Asana was thoughtful, while Uchiha En thought to himself: "Teacher Shibi is right, but all of this is predicated on Might Duy not activating the Eight Gates.
The Eight Gates can temporarily grant immense power by unlocking the pathways that restrict Chakra flow inside the body. When all Eight Gates are open, it is called the 'Eight Gates Formation,' capable of instantly granting dozens of times the power, surpassing even the Five Kage.
However, the power released after activating the Eight Gates depends on the user themselves, multiplying based on the user's inherent strength, so the resulting power differs among various users.
For example, Might Duy's physical fitness is definitely inferior to Might Guy's in the original work. Might Guy nearly kicked out the ending after opening the Gate of Death of the Eight Gates, but Might Duy certainly wouldn't achieve that effect."
"En, what are you thinking about?" Yamanaka Teruzuki asked, leaning closer as he saw Uchiha En looking down.
"Nothing much. Kagetsu, didn't you keep clamoring to learn the Body Flicker Technique? I think you're finally qualified to learn it now," Uchiha En said, changing the subject.
"Really?"
"Of course, it's true. Teacher Shibi should also be ready to teach you."
Hearing this, Yamanaka Teruzuki turned to look at Aburame Shibi, who nodded and said, "I did call you here today because I was planning to teach you new Ninjutsu.
Asana, your Chakra reserves have grown considerably recently, so you can learn Shadow Clone. En, you will be responsible for teaching Asana the Shadow Clone, and I will be responsible for guiding Kagetsu so he masters the Body Flicker Technique quickly."
"What about me? Teacher Shibi, don't I get a new Ninjutsu?" Uchiha En asked.
"Of course you do. While executing this mission, I managed to acquire a decent Water Release Ninjutsu. You can try learning it." After saying this, Aburame Shibi tossed a scroll to Uchiha En.
Uchiha En took the scroll and opened it. Inside the scroll was a Water Release Ninjutsu with no difficulty rating: Water Release: Water Whip.
"This technique is a Ninjutsu frequently used by the Kirigakure Anbu. It uses water to form a whip to bind the enemy, immobilizing them, or it can be swung directly as an attack. Its power is quite astonishing."
Hearing Aburame Shibi say this, Uchiha En remembered that this technique seemed to have appeared in the original work.
At the time, the Kirigakure Anbu used it. They easily defeated the Ninjutsu of Naruto and his group, who were protecting the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, and even Yamato's Wood Release couldn't withstand the technique's attack.
Uchiha En was very satisfied with this technique. He split off a Shadow Clone to begin researching the technique, while his main body first started teaching Asana the Shadow Clone.
Asana learned very seriously, and after two days, she was able to create a Shadow Clone. The remaining issues were minor ones, such as Chakra distribution.
Based on Uchiha En's experience, these minor issues could be resolved simply by slowly cultivating or using the Shadow Clone a few more times.
The master leads the way, but success depends on individual effort. Asana could now be considered graduated.
After finishing teaching Asana, Uchiha En's main body also began his own training.
His main body and Shadow Clone worked together, and finally, two days later, he successfully used the Water Whip.
However, compared to the Water Whip used by the Kirigakure Anbu in the original work, which shattered Yamato's Wood Release in one blow, Uchiha En's Water Whip still had a large gap.
Firstly, the Water Whip was too loose. When Asana struck it with Eight Trigrams: Air Palm, the Water Whip immediately exploded.
Secondly, the Water Whip lacked sufficient flexibility. More accurately, Uchiha En could not perfectly control the Water Whip's attacks.
Lastly, and most critically, the Water Whip's duration was too short; his Chakra could only sustain the Water Whip for about twenty seconds.
Only by solving these three problems could the Water Whip Ninjutsu be considered fully mastered.
To master this technique as quickly as possible, Uchiha En created two more Shadow Clones. Three Shadow Clones plus the main body meant essentially four people working together.
However, the cost of this training was too great. The moment the three Shadow Clones dispersed, a huge sense of exhaustion and massive memories flooded his mind, and Uchiha En nearly collapsed onto the ground.
"Hiss~ Naruto truly is a monster! He trains with so many Shadow Clones and acts like nothing happened. My three Shadow Clones are already pushing my limit. It looks like I shouldn't use three Shadow Clones for training tomorrow; keeping it to two is better," Uchiha En thought to himself.
Finishing a day of training, Uchiha En returned to his tent.
As of today, five days have passed since the last Text Game.
After the last Text Game ended, it was stated that five days' worth of Text Game opportunities could be exchanged for a continuation of the previous Text Game.
Based on Uchiha En's experience, options that have never appeared before often signify a great reward, so he decisively chose to accumulate five days' worth of Text Game opportunities.
Uchiha En quickly ate some dinner, then lay down on his bed and slowly closed his eyes.
Just like before, Uchiha En spun the turntable in the Consciousness Space. Following the familiar special effects, a line of text appeared:
"You have logged into the Arad Continent."
