When he first started practicing Moon Breathing, Zuo Zhu was a little unconfident.
Because not only did he fail in practicing Sun Breathing before, he also injured himself, which left a bit of a trauma on the young Zuo Zhu.
And Nagase himself admitted that Moon Breathing was as powerful as Sun Breathing and just as difficult to practice, which made Zuo Zhu feel a little uneasy.
If he failed to train successfully, how could he have the nerve to call Naruto a fool again? He would also be too ashamed to face his brother again, even though his brother hadn't come back yet.
Sasuke often saw his father Uchiha Fugaku praising his brother Uchiha Itachi, praising him for his genius and the pride of their Uchiha clan.
Sasuke also wanted to be a genius like Itachi and be praised by his father.
During the period of training and recuperation from his injury, Sasuke often went out to play. In fact, he was just avoiding Fugaku. He was a little afraid to face his father, fearing that he would show disappointment in him.
But after practicing it for a while, Zuo Zhu suddenly discovered that practicing Moon Breathing and Sun Breathing were completely different feelings.
Although it was very hard, it was not as uncomfortable as the Breathing of the Sun.
Although he had failed in practicing Sun Breathing before, it gave Zuo Zhu some experience in practicing breathing. In addition, Moon Breathing was more suitable for Zuo Zhu, so he got the hang of it quickly.
At the beginning, the progress was far behind Naruto's Sun Breathing.
But after two months of training, although his progress was not as good as Naruto's, he was slowly catching up, and the gap was not that big.
It can be said that I have initially learned the basics of Moon Breathing.
Now Zuo Zhu felt that he was back on his feet and was able to do it again.
So he had a pleasant sparring session with Naruto today.
Because they were beginners, Nagase did not give them real swords, only wooden swords.
But it also hurts when the wooden sword hits the body, so Sasuke was beaten up by Naruto.
Naruto's breathing technique was ahead of him, his bursts were stronger than his, and his body was faster than his.
The only thing worth mentioning is that Naruto doesn't seem to have any talent in kendo, and he is not as good as Sasuke in this regard.
However, this is not the main point. The breathing method practiced by Naruto and others can be regarded as a fantasy technique, and those sword-type sword moves can be regarded as magical combat skills.
Even if Naruto doesn't know any sophisticated sword moves, as long as he practices breathing techniques well and has enough chakra, then not only can he use the sword, but every punch and kick will be able to destroy the world.
The reason why those people who practice breathing techniques in Demon Slayer use swords is because due to the characteristics of demons, they must be killed with the Nichirin Sword.
Then the power level is not as high as here, and the sharp sword is also useful.
The situation on Yongze's side is different, so you can just practice breathing techniques, but if you can use a sword you'll have an extra means of attack.
In Naruto, breathing techniques are more like an explosive secret technique.
"Hehe, I told you that Zuosuke was no match for me. Now you've been beaten badly by me." Naruto said proudly after winning the battle.
Zuo Zhu stood up with a gloomy face and brushed off the dust on his body. The power increase brought by the breathing method was too obvious, causing him to misjudge his own strength.
Although he lost, Zuo Zhu was not hit hard and was not killed instantly. At least he fought back and forth for a while before losing.
"Don't be happy too soon. It's just that you have practiced for more time than me, so you still have a little advantage now. Wait for the battle in a month, and I will let you know the power of Uchiha." After cleaning up the dust, Zuo Zhu regained his confidence.
"You can just talk big, but I will still be the winner." Naruto didn't think that Sasuke, who had trained later, could catch up with him so quickly.
"Teacher Nagase said that pride makes people regress, while humility makes people progress. Naruto, you have already lost." Sasuke said.
"I'm not proud, it's just like this." Naruto also said.
Seeing the two people bickering instead of summarizing the fighting process, Nagaze punched each of them. The two men felt pain and immediately squatted down, covering their heads.
After being hit by Nagase's iron fist, both of them felt a sharp pain coming from their heads, which made their eyes misty.
"I told you to summarize after the battle, why are you still arguing?" Nagaze sat cross-legged in front of the two of them.
The two looked at Nagase with tears in their eyes. Naruto covered his head with his hands and asked, "Uncle Nagase, your beating hurts so much. Can't you be gentler?"
"Of course it hurts because I want you to remember the lesson. If you feel the pain, don't make the same mistake again next time." Nagase smiled and touched Naruto's head.
He just used a special boxing technique he developed, which is a kind of medical ninjutsu. It hurts a lot but won't hurt anyone, and it even has a healing effect.
"Okay." Naruto replied while pulling Chang Yin.
"Then I'll try not to make any mistakes."
"I understand." Zuo Zhu said a little awkwardly.
"Of course, you can also treat this as a training. As long as you can dodge my iron fist of love, I will not hit you a second time. Just consider it as a hit." Nagase said after thinking for a while.
If Kakashi and the others were there, they would probably feel something about Nagase's words.
The strength of their observation Haki and armament Haki is as strong as it is today, but that's because they were hit by punches and sticks.
Back then, when they were in the Anbu Team 7, whenever they didn't complete a mission, they would be beaten up by Nagase in the training ground.
This beating lasted for two years. Even when Kakashi was about to get married, he was still beaten by Nagase every day. Every time he went to see Hua Ling, he had to disguise himself and looked very embarrassed.
Of course, after suffering a lot, Kakashi and the others’ strength increased rapidly. Now, even without the Sharingan, Kakashi’s strength is firmly at the level of Kage.
Kakashi is very versatile and has no weaknesses.
He is proficient in the six advanced physical techniques and can use various ninjutsu with ease. As for ninjutsu, there is no need to mention it. He knows too many ninjutsu, and his best skill is lightning escape, which has a very strong attack power.
In addition, Kakashi also has strong domineering aura, whether it is armament color or observation color.
Finally, Kakashi also practiced fairy techniques, and had extraordinary burst capabilities when necessary.
It can be said that Kakashi at this time has surpassed many people in the ninja world.
"Really?" Naruto looked at Nagase with anticipation.
"Of course it's true. How could Hokage Fuzusa lie?" Nagase said righteously.
"No matter how hard you try, it's impossible to dodge your punch, Mr. Nagase." Zuo Zhu noticed the problem.
If you avoid it, it's over. You won't pursue it. But you still have to avoid the problem.
He once curiously asked Uchiha Fugaku how strong Nagase was.
Uchiha Fugaku thought about it, brought Sasuke outside, and then used ninjutsu to destroy a huge stone more than seven meters high.
Then Fugaku asked Sasuke if this technique was powerful. Of course Sasuke said it was very powerful. This was a stone more than seven meters big, many times larger than any other.
Then Fugaku said that if Nagase used his full strength, it would not be a matter of breaking a piece of stone. Even a majestic mountain or a prosperous city would be destroyed in an instant.
For the first time, the young Zuo Zhu realized the specific destructive power of the strong.
It's hard to feel the reality when you say how powerful he is. But if you say that Nagaze can smash a majestic mountain with just one punch, then the picture and the sense of oppression will come.
Breaking a boulder that is several times taller than a person does not make one a strong person. Only those who have the power to destroy a mountain are truly strong. This is what Zuo Zhu thought at that time.
Of course, if Fugaku knew Nagase's true destructive power, he would definitely feel that he was too narrow-minded.
It's really nothing to destroy a mountain in an instant, the Tailed Beast Balls of the Tailed Beasts can do it too.
Although Sasuke didn't know Nagase's true strength, based on what Fugaku described to him, it was absolutely impossible for them to dodge Nagase's attack.
"Oh, that's right." Naruto thought about it and felt that this was impossible.
"Of course I can't use my full strength against you. I can control myself to a level that is not much different from yours. Do you want to try it?" Nagaze said with a smile.
Naruto and Sasuke took a breath and looked at each other, then pointed at each other and said, "Naruto/Sasuke, go first."
"In that case, I'll just assume that you all want them." Looking at the harmonious scene between Sasuke and Naruto, Nagaze also showed a gratified smile, then controlled the strength and punched each of them.
Bang! Bang!
Two dull collision sounds were heard, and Naruto's left assistant instantly held his head again, looking at Nagase with tears in his eyes.
"How about it? Do you feel you can dodge it?" Before Naruto's left assistant could complain, Nagase spoke first.
The two recalled it and realized that it was indeed the case.
Although they didn't dodge this time, unlike the first time, they couldn't see Nagaze's fist at all. This time at least it was visible to the naked eye.
"At this level, I should be able to dodge!" Naruto Zuosuke's confidence rose.
This time, without waiting for Nagase to say anything, Zuo Zhu volunteered to try and see if he could dodge Nagase's fist.
Next second.
Bang!
The iron fist of love hit Zuo Zhu on the head again. Zuo Zhu lost his balance and fell directly to the ground, with an unwilling expression on his face.
He clearly caught the movement, it was almost there, just a little bit, and he reacted and dodged.
"Hahaha...Sasuke you're so funny." Naruto couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Naruto immediately volunteered, saying that he wanted to show Zuo Zhu what real skills are.
"Sasuke, just watch and see the power of the Breathing of the Sun!" Naruto said with high spirits.
By observing Nagase playing as a left assist, he felt that he could do it!
Zuo Zuo, who was weaker than him, almost dodged it, so shouldn't he be able to dodge it for sure
The next moment.
Bang!
There was a figure next to the squatting Zuo Zhu.
"How could this happen? It was just a little bit short..." Naruto muttered as if he was doubting his life.
He was almost able to dodge it just now, but he was still a step too slow and was hit by Nagase Ai's iron fist.
"It's just so close, that's such a pity, do you want to continue?" Nagase asked as if he felt sorry for Naruto.
Naruto, who didn't believe it, nodded and asked to try again. He believed that with the experience from last time, this time it wouldn't be just a little bit off, but just right.
But things were not as simple as Naruto thought. After trying again, Naruto just got a bump on his head and failed.
"Strange, why is it still a little bit off..." Naruto fell into deep thought. He had the experience once, so why didn't he dodge it? However, he felt that he was closer to success.
The left assistant next to him was not willing to fall behind. He had just reviewed the situation in his mind many times and was already confident that he could make up that little bit.
Then, in this training ground, the sound continued to ring out, one after another.
Later, Naruto's left assistant had forgotten that this was a punch that was only given for mistakes, and was only focused on achieving the feat of dodging Nagase's punch.
In fact, this is a typical sunk cost. They have been beaten so many times and are just a little bit away from success. If they continue, then all the previous beatings would be in vain.
One can imagine what happened to Naruto's left assistant afterwards. He was beaten all over the head and sat there doubting his life.
"Why is it always just a little bit short?" Naruto said with a look of doubt on his face.
Nagaze smiled and said, "Of course it's because I was controlling my punch so that you almost dodged it."
"You have been practicing for too short a time and have not been able to fully exert your strength, so you are always a little short here and a little short there.
If you practice well in the future, you won't be like this." Yongze said.
"Is that so?" Naruto looked at Nagaze uncertainly, a little suspicious, but not sure.
"If you don't believe me, wait until you finish practicing this afternoon and then come back to test it to see if you're still a little short." Yongze replied calmly.
Naruto nodded.
After that, Naruto and Sasuke practiced extremely seriously. They were fully focused in the afternoon practice and gave 120% of their effort.
Then when they finished their training, they tried again.
As expected, this time the two of them successfully avoided Nagase's attack after being hit only twice.
"So that's really the case." Naruto said excitedly.
“It seems that we can’t slack off in any aspect of cultivation.” Zuo Zhu said seriously.
Nagaze, who was behind them, saw their expressions and couldn't help feeling guilty for deceiving innocent children.
Although he felt guilty, he still had to say what he had to say. Yongze coughed twice and said:
"You are very good, but you have to be careful. I will slowly increase your strength as you improve. Don't think that you can get away with it this time. You have to persevere in your practice."
"Will I get beaten again?" Naruto subconsciously touched his head. It had a hard time today.
"Just don't make any mistakes." Zuo Zhu discovered the blind spot. This was not a formal training. It just meant that when they made mistakes, they could avoid Nagase's Iron Fist of Love and not be held accountable.
"Then why did we get beaten so badly this morning..." Naruto fell silent.
Zuo Zhu glanced at the smiling Nagase in horror. It was horrible that this man was playing with them in the palm of his hand and making them take the initiative to be beaten.
People with squinty eyes are all monsters.
… …
When Kaori Shijo got the information she wanted, she was stunned.
"I spent so much money and got fake information. How could he be eight years old?" Shijo Kaori recalled Itachi's appearance.
Is this eight years old
