Chapter 5 - First Impressions of the "Big Fat Sheep"

Nawaki put down his teacup, organized his thoughts, and quickly said, "Because Hatake Kaede defeated the famous Uchiha clan, and with the girls in the school admiring him, some troublemakers from other classes might not be able to stand Hatake Kaede's limelight and are planning to cause him trouble."

"Ugh~ What wicked brats." Upon hearing Nawaki's description, Tsunade unconsciously conjured up an image of a white-haired lecher in her mind.

Nawaki chuckled and continued, following Tsunade's words, "Haha, sis, don't be impatient!At first, there were indeed 5 people who went to ambush Hatake Kaede after school, but Hatake Kaede turned the tables and killed them.Those 5 people went to school the next day with dark circles under their eyes."

"Wow~ Nawaki-nii, are you serious?Hatake-senpai is that amazing!" Kushina asked sweetly.

"That guy is still very strong.Those five people were probably only outwardly convinced, so the next day they called on their friends and formed a gang, gathering more than 20 people to surround Hatake Kaede.Although I don't know the outcome, I heard that many people took sick leave."

"Wait a minute, Nawaki, when did this happen?" Tsunade paused.

"It must have been last year, right?How come you know about this, sis?"

"Hahaha~ It was him!"

"What, sis, you know him?"

"I don't know them, but Dr.Hanako would probably love to 'get to know' them." Dr.Hanako was in charge of the outpatient clinic.She had just finished get off work that day when more than ten children with bruises and swelling suddenly arrived, forcing her to work overtime and postpone her date with her boyfriend.The next day, Dr.Hanako complained to me about it.

"However, Kaede Hatake is also a vengeful person.For the next few days, the five people who started the trouble were blocked at the school gate every day, scaring the five troublemakers into not daring to leave the school.The matter was only resolved when the five people changed classes."

"Oh ho, blocking the door?This brat.Kushina, remember this, do this to anyone who bullies you from now on.Beat them until they dare not fight back or provoke you."

"Tsunade, don't corrupt Kushina.Kushina, don't listen to your Tsunade sister."

"Okay, okay." Kushina responded verbally, but her eyes shone with a different light.

"That's not all the stories about Kaede Hatake!Once, I passed by their classroom and saw a girl offering him a lunchbox.But after Kaede Hatake said one thing, the girl started sobbing and ran away."

"Oh, what did that brat say?" Tsunade asked curiously.

Nawaki touched his face, his expression returning to blank, and changed his tone: "Sorry, I don't like eating with ugly people."

Mito Uzumaki paused, her hand holding the teacup momentarily still, and a look of bewilderment crossed her usually impassive face.Tsunade and Kushina, standing nearby, were also taken aback.

Tsunade, in particular, felt her blood pressure spike rapidly and instinctively raised her head to cover the back of her head.

Kushina has truly seen something new; she really admires Kaede Hatake's sharp tongue.

......

Kaede Hatake's personality is the kind that says "I won't bother others unless they bother me." As long as others don't provoke him, he completely ignores them.In his past life, he'd say they were all a bunch of Muggles.

The next day, when Hatake Kaede woke up, the pain in his body had subsided, and the swelling in his buttocks had gone down, restoring them to their "Konoha perky buttocks".

After having breakfast, Hatake Kaede tidied himself up and went to the Ninja Academy.

Going to school, training, developing the fruits of labor, going home to rest, and then having a good tirade with his father, Hatake Sakumo.Life at the ninja academy is just that monotonous and boring.

It was time for the Ninja Academy to rest again, and Hatake Kaede arrived at his secret camp according to his training plan.

This secret campsite is located beside a small tributary of the Namka River.Because of its riverside location, water is readily available.Furthermore, its proximity to the Death Forest means there is an abundance of wildlife, providing a constant source of meat.

During this training, Kaede Hatake set a goal to develop his own Lightning Style ninjutsu without hand seals—Purple Lightning—based on Kakashi's future Lightning Blade.

This wasn't a decision Hatake Kaede made on a whim; he had been preparing for this ninjutsu for many years, strengthening his physique and researching information about Lightning Style.

Years of preparation gave Kaede Hatake the confidence to train this time.

Lightning Blade (Raikiri) is an S-rank ninjutsu, its predecessor being the A-rank ninjutsu Chidori.Lightning Blade is a lightning-style ninjutsu developed by Kakashi Hatake during his youth, combining chakra nature transformation and form transformation.

When the ninjutsu is activated, the high-intensity electric current formed by lightning chakra is concentrated in the hand, and then pierced through the target with extremely fast speed.

The advantages of this ninjutsu are its speed and strong thrusting and cutting abilities.The disadvantages are its loud noise, lack of dynamic vision, and difficulty in seeing the enemy's movements due to its high speed.

It wasn't until Kakashi obtained Obito Uchiha's Sharingan that the Lightning Blade ninjutsu truly reached its complete form.

Although the Lightning Blade has certain drawbacks, it also showcases Kakashi's talent in ninjutsu.

However, for Kaede Hatake, these shortcomings are completely negligible.

The goal of this new ninjutsu is extreme thrusting and slicing, but the speed it provides will leave the user completely unable to react.The excessive speed will also prevent the user from seeing the enemy's defensive movements.

However, these shortcomings are not a problem for me.The Rumble-Rumble Fruit allows my reflexes to undergo abnormal changes, and my sensory abilities have also been greatly altered, fully meeting the requirements of ninjutsu.

The most important thing at this stage is to maintain the shape and properties of lightning, focusing on its striking and cutting capabilities.

Having grasped the key points of his efforts, Kaede Hatake began experimenting not far from the camp.

flagKaede Hatake possesses the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, giving him a natural affinity for lightning.In other words, Kaede Hatake himself is lightning.

Even with the aid of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit and the physical training he had undergone in the previous years, Hatake Kaede still managed to develop his ninjutsu with some difficulty.By noon, the rudimentary form of Purple Lightning, a ninjutsu that Hatake Kaede had developed based on the Lightning Blade and was more suitable for himself, began to take shape.

Purple Lightning possesses superior thrusting and cutting abilities, and its destructive range is much wider.Most importantly, Purple Lightning is a hand seal-free ninjutsu, meaning it can be activated at any time.

Kaede Hatake was very satisfied with his training results, so he decided to have a picnic in the afternoon to relax.A balance between work and rest would make training smoother.

......

After having a light lunch of his packed lunch, Hatake Kaede rested at his campsite.After resting, he went into the forest to hunt.

A short while later, Kaede Hatake came out carrying two wild rabbits and a small wild boar.

Kaede Hatake was in a good mood, humming a song from his past life as he processed his hunted prey with kunai by the river.Soon, the aroma of roasted meat filled the air along the riverbank.

Kaede Hatake often trains alone in the wild, sometimes without time to go home for meals, so he has to cook outdoors.Kaede's previous life was in China, and his love of food hasn't changed even in the ninja world.

Kaede Hatake's barbecue skills have become incredibly refined through years of practice, and his homemade barbecue seasoning is truly exceptional.When developing this seasoning, Kaede even went to Akimichi's barbecue restaurant to compare their seasoning.

The aroma of the barbecue wafted far and wide, attracting several uninvited guests.
