Naruto training king

The next day, lunch break.

A row of radish heads were lined up in front of the hand, immersed in cooking.

After finishing the last bite of noodles in the bowl, Naruto said listlessly: "I've finished eating, thank you for the treat."

Seeing that the child was no longer as lively as before, Shandai asked with concern: "Naruto, is there anything that's bothering you?"

Naruto grabbed his hair hard and said angrily: "I had a conflict with a friend yesterday. I originally wanted to apologize to him today, but when I saw him in the morning, I felt that he was in a particularly bad mood. "

"He has never been like this before. I'm afraid to go up and talk to him."

Tezuna thought for a moment, then pointed at Qingmi and others: "I don't know much about the situation, but why don't you ask your friends?"

Qingmi wiped his red lips, grabbed the ice tea in the cup and drank it in one gulp: "I told Naruto a long time ago that Sasuke is not the kind of person to hold grudges."

"That's it." Tate nodded, and then said to Naruto with a smile, "You actually already have the answer in your heart, but you still lack a little courage."

He touched Naruto's hair and narrowed his eyes: "Now, I will give you my courage. Let's find a suitable time to resolve the differences with him."

"The right time?" Naruto was a little confused, "Why not go now?"

“When a person’s heart is filled with exciting emotions like anger, he cannot listen to what others say.”

Naruto nodded thoughtfully: "What if I find a way to resolve his anger?"

"That's difficult because it requires a lot of empathy."

At this moment, Choji's voice came from the side: "I'm full!"

"We should go back, uncle Shou Da, goodbye." Naruto waved his hand and said goodbye to Shou Da.

Although he had made up his mind, Naruto could not find a chance to talk until school was over and he watched Sasuke leave the classroom.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Sasuke stood by the river, his cheeks burning, completely ignoring the risk of being burned and continuing to squeeze the chakra from his body.

At this moment, Qingmi's voice came from behind him.

"So you're here. Why don't you come to the training ground? You can't be afraid."

There was a hint of ridicule in Kiyomi's voice. Normally Sasuke would have retorted immediately, but now he turned a deaf ear and continued to spit flames forward.

Looking at him like a lighter, Qingmi couldn't help but shake his head: "It's useless for you to practice like this. Have you forgotten what I taught you?"

"What?"

Sasuke finally stopped pretending to be deaf and dumb after hearing that he could learn the method of Go Fireball.

“Climbing trees and treading water.”

Sasuke said without looking back, "I can climb trees."

"What about treading water?" Qingmi asked.

"I can climb trees."

Hearing this, Qingmi covered his face and sighed: "Who told you that if you can climb a tree, you will definitely know how to tread water?"

"never mind!"

Kiyomi walked forward quickly, jumped over Sasuke and jumped directly into the river.

Even though the surface of the river was not calm, Qingmi still stepped firmly on the surface of the river, and his body slowly swayed with the waves of the water. It seemed that he would fall over at a touch, but in fact he was as motionless as a mountain.

"Come on, come down and try."

"Ah."

Sasuke smiled contemptuously and followed Kiyomi's example and jumped directly into the river.

"thump!"

Without a trace of surprise, Sasuke didn't stop on the river at all. He dived directly into the river like an ordinary person diving.

Because he wanted to practice fire escape, Sasuke specially found a deep and wide river.

The light could not shine below the water flow, and everything Sasuke could see was pitch black. In addition, the chakra in his body was drained while practicing fire escape. Uneasiness and fear filled Sasuke's heart at this moment.

For a moment, Sasuke was struggling wildly, and the next second, a hand grabbed his wrist and lifted him out of the water.

"Calm down! Sasuke!"

Kiyomi's voice rang in his ears, and coupled with the feeling on his wrist, Sasuke actually felt a sense of security as if he was beside his brother.

On the lawn by the river bank.

Qingmi took off his shirt and wrung it out: "Sasuke, you are too anxious. Obviously you only need steady and steady training."

He couldn't help but have a headache. Why were both of them problem children?

"Hu~hu~"

Sasuke was panting heavily, putting one hand on his forehead to block the dazzling sunlight, and grabbing the grass with his other hand to tear up a handful of weeds.

"What a shame! I want you to take care of it!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."

Qingmi put on his clothes with a sullen face, raised his fist and shook it in front of his eyes: "Do you want me to explain to you reason, or do you want to talk about physics?"

Sasuke was stunned for a moment, feeling the nearly depleted chakra in his body and the fatigue coming from his body. He chose to follow his heart for once.

Seeing that Sasuke became better behaved, Kiyomi nodded with satisfaction: "I remember very clearly. When you introduced yourself on the first day of school, you said that your ideal was to catch up with your brother and become a ninja that would make your father and clan proud..."

"I didn't say that." Sasuke retorted immediately.

Qingmi said calmly: "Then is this your ideal? Let me ask, is it?"

Seeing that Sasuke stopped talking, Kiyomi continued: "The name Uchiha Itachi is well-known even among the Hyuga clan. After all, he is a genius who can graduate early. No, he should be said to be a genius among geniuses."

"Sasuke, it's not easy to catch up with him. Even if you spend all your time practicing and injure yourself, you still can't catch up with him."

"What do you want to say?" Sasuke's voice was unusually calm, even a little uncharacteristic.

Kiyomi looked into Sasuke's eyes and asked seriously: "I said, have you ever thought about surpassing him?"

Beyond...brother?

Sasuke was stunned. He had never dared to think about it this way because the pressure his brother put on him was too great.

Just like Kiyomi said, even if he devoted all his time to training, he still wouldn't be able to catch up with Itachi, because that's the kind of person he is.

"Sasuke, the relationship between people is two intersecting curves. No matter how hard you try to catch up with Itachi's shadow, you can't become the second Uchiha Itachi."

"What you should do is become the first Uchiha Sasuke."

Sasuke took away the hand covering his eyes, looked into Qingmi's eyes and asked, "What should I do?"

Qingmi shook his head: "You shouldn't ask me. You have to blaze your own path. I can only help you when the time is right, like now."

"Sasuke, I saw it with my Byakugan. The chakra you gathered at your throat was too loose, so what you spit out was flames, not a fireball concentrated in one place."

"I told you the answer a long time ago, but you were too impatient and ignored it."

"Climbing trees and treading water," Sasuke murmured.

Then he immediately sat up and without any hesitation, dragged his wet body towards the river.

"thump!"
