the secret base of Chishima Chiba and Tsunade.
This place has been abandoned for more than half a year and was finally reopened today.
Hatake Sakumo was used as a coolie by Chishima Chiba, who commanded him to work with him to clean up the place and turn it into a slightly simple training ground.
Tsunade was happily idle, watching the two of them busy quietly, and occasionally offering some suggestions so that she could feel involved.
Hatake Sakumo didn't say much, but he was still a little resentful. He was working with Chishima Chiba, and he was doing more work, but Tsunade's attention was always on Chishima Chiba.
It's not that Hatake Sakumo is interested in Tsunade, it's just that he's simply feeling unbalanced.
After two hours of hard work, the two finally cleaned up the place and set up practice props such as targets and wooden men.
"Alright!" Chishima Chiba clapped his hands and linked arms with Hatake Sakumo, "Sakumo, you've worked hard, brother. I'll teach you the secrets of Taijutsu later!"
Hatake Sakumo resisted at first, but when he heard the words "secret of physical skills", he did not resist against his will.
Tsunade also stood up at this moment and walked into the training ground which had basically taken shape. She looked left and right, obviously unable to wait.
"Tsunade, you should familiarize yourself with the venue first. Sakumo and I will be back soon."
After saying that, Chishima Chiba put his arm around Hatake Sakumo's shoulders and walked away. From a distance, they really looked like good brothers.
But Tsunade was not so obedient. She had known for a long time that Chishima and Chiba were up to something bad, but she couldn't guess the details. She could only follow the two of them quietly out of curiosity.
"Here it is."
Chishima Chiba stopped and naturally let go of Hatake Sakumo's shoulder with his right hand, and his expression became serious.
"Sakumo, this trick is the ultimate secret of Taijutsu that I developed with the help of Grandpa Tobirama. I really won't teach it to ordinary people."
"But you are different. I recognize you! Even if I only recognize you halfway, I will do my best to teach you this ultimate killer move."
Hatake Sakumo nodded, and then became very curious, "Why do you only recognize half of me?"
"The other half will naturally have to wait until you learn the ultimate physical skill, Thousand Years of Killing. I'll make a conclusion based on your performance."
Chishima Chiba took the initiative to distance himself from Hatake Sakumo, "Let's get back to the topic. If you want to learn the secret of Taijutsu, Thousand Years of Killing, you must meet a prerequisite."
"What conditions?" Hatake Sakumo listened carefully and gave timely feedback, "Do I meet those conditions?"
"You know the Shadow Clone Technique, right?"
"No." Hatake Sakumo shook his head, "I am not qualified to learn the technique developed by the Second Hokage."
"I can teach you the Shadow Clone Technique." Chishima Chiba decided to give Hatake Sakumo a little benefit and pave the way for the future. "But there is a prerequisite. After you learn the Shadow Clone Technique and the subsequent Thousand Years of Killing, you must promise that you will never use this killing move on me."
Hearing this, Hatake Sakumo hurriedly shook his head and said, "How can I use the secrets of physical skills I learned from you on you?"
"That makes me feel relieved. Let's get started. I'll teach you the Shadow Clone Technique first."
Tsunade, who was hiding aside, couldn't help but murmur in her heart when she saw Chishima Chiba teaching seriously.
"That's not right... When did Chiba become so honest? No, there must be something else!"
The doubt only arose for a moment, and Tsunade immediately suppressed it and continued to lurk and observe patiently.
Chishima Chiba will definitely show his true colors one day, and he won't keep people waiting for long.
Sure enough, in just half an hour, Hatake Sakumo had completely mastered the hand seals and chakra circulation trajectories of the Shadow Clone Technique.
It has to be said that Hatake Sakumo is indeed an absolute genius. Although he specializes in his family's swordsmanship, his talent in ninjutsu and his level of chakra control are rare among his peers.
After only two attempts, Hatake Sakumo successfully performed the Shadow Clone. Although he was not very skilled, his speed in getting started was astonishing.
"Sakumo is indeed a genius. When I first learned the Shadow Clone Technique, I only tried once before I succeeded."
Hatake Sakumo glanced at Chishima Chiba, but in the end he couldn't help rolling his eyes.
Are you praising my genius or yourself?
Suddenly a suppressed laugh was heard, and Chishima Chiba also reacted, pointing at Hatake Sakumo and shouting very loudly.
"You farted!"
"Chishima Chiba, you're the one who farted!" Tsunade suddenly jumped out of the bushes, a dangerous light flashing in her eyes, "You're finished!"
Tsunade suddenly pounced on Chishima Chiba like a young tiger, her little fangs bared, and her fists landed on Chishima Chiba's back repeatedly.
After playing for a while, the two finally calmed down and noticed Hatake Sakumo with a distressed look on his face.
This light bulb is...
"Ahem." Chishima Chiba cleared his throat, "Sakumo, I'm now going to teach you the secret of the physical technique I created: Thousand Years of Killing!"
After assuming a pose, Hatake Sakumo cooperated by turning a serious face, but Tsunade on the side couldn't help but grin, as if she was trying to ruin the show.
"Stay away Tsunade, this jutsu is very dangerous and cruel, you can't watch it."
"oh."
Tsunade nodded, took a few steps back and raised her palm to cover her face. However, the gaps between her nails were a bit large, which just covered her face, but revealed two bright brown eyes.
Chishima Chiba ignored this trivial matter and said, "Sakumo, are you ready?"
"alright."
"I'll only demonstrate it once, just watch."
Chishima Chiba used a shadow clone technique and explained the key points at the same time, "Use the white smoke from the shadow clone technique to block the enemy's sight. At this time, we need to use a very low-level earth escape ninjutsu: Soil Submersion."
"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't know this earth escape ninjutsu. You can use the mind beheading technique instead, or other methods."
As he spoke, Chishima Chiba's real body had already used the Earth Style: Submersible Navigation Technique to arrive at Hatake Sakumo's feet.
The shadow clone's explanation continued, "In short, what you have to do is sneak behind the enemy and surprise them..."
The secret of physical skills: Thousand Years of Killing!
"Ahhh!!!"
Hatake Sakumo's eyes widened, his buttocks contracted subconsciously, he jumped three feet high, and his expression was distorted.
(`ω)
Tsunade on the side suddenly froze in place, her eyes recording the scene that she would never forget in her life.
It must be painful, right?
"Puchi...chichi, uhahaha..." Tsunade was trying hard to hold it in, but Hatake Sakumo's eyes were red.
clang.
He unsheathed the White Fang dagger on his back, and enduring the pain in his buttocks, he twisted his body in mid-air relying on the strength of his waist and abdomen, and with a surge of lightning chakra bursting out of his body, he rushed towards Chishima Chiba!
"Chishima Chiba! I'm going to fight you!"
