This made him feel very displeased; he must perform well so that his parents would pay more attention to him.
He came alone to the water's edge and began training in the Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique. He had to release an even more powerful Great Fireball Technique to show his father just how much of a genius his child was.
The reason he came to the river was, of course, to prevent the fireball from causing a fire.
He directly refined chakra, formed hand seals with both hands, and actually managed to release a small fireball.
His heart was filled with joy, and he immediately shouted,
"Father, I succeeded!"
Uchiha Fugaku was also very satisfied in his heart. Being able to release the Great Fireball Technique at such a young age meant his talent was not low. A child like this would definitely become a pillar of support for the Uchiha clan in the future.
Naruto, who observed Sasuke releasing the fireball, had a face full of amazement.
'So this is ninjutsu? It looks so cool.'
"Uncle Fugaku, can you also teach me how to release a Great Fireball?"
Fugaku immediately said "Of course, that's possible."
As the son of Konoha's top genius, Namikaze Minato, and Kushina, both of whom were outstanding ninjas, the child they gave birth to wouldn't be any worse than his own. And now, he had the opportunity to teach Naruto ninjutsu. Wouldn't that mean he was essentially Naruto's teacher?
The relationship between master and disciple was one of the strongest bonds in the village.
In the future, Naruto would undoubtedly be considered part of the Uchiha clan's side.
'Ryosuke really played a good move.'
Upon hearing the answer, Naruto's eyes lit up. "I also want to learn the Great Fireball Technique! This Great Fireball is so cool!"
Seeing Naruto's eagerness, Fugaku also smiled. "This is the Uchiha clan's signature ninjutsu. Without fire attribute chakra, you won't be able to release it. And as far as I know, neither of your parents specialized in Fire Style."
Although children usually inherit their parents' chakra nature, there are occasional exceptions.
Hearing this, Naruto felt a bit dejected. So he really couldn't release that Great Fireball?
Seeing Naruto's disappointed expression, Fugaku comforted him. "Even if you can't release the Great Fireball, you can still use other powerful ninjutsu. Like this."
After speaking, he directly refined chakra and formed hand seals.
"Water Style: Water Bullet Jutsu."
In front of him, a small water sphere appeared. Then he stopped refining chakra, and the water sphere disappeared into the air.
He refined chakra again, formed hand seals with both hands.
"Wind Style: Wind Blade."
An invisible wind blade appeared in front of him and directly stabbed into the water.
Fugaku looked a bit regretful; his chakra nature was primarily fire-based. Releasing other elemental ninjutsu would significantly reduce their power.
Naruto looked at the Water Bullet Jutsu and the Wind Blade—these were also incredibly cool jutsu. "Uncle Fugaku, these are cool too! I'll learn these instead!"
Fugaku was very pleased in his heart. He had successfully sparked Naruto's interest in learning.
"To successfully release ninjutsu, you must first learn to refine chakra. Additionally, you need to master the technique of releasing ninjutsu."
"You should start with the first step. That is, practicing the Uchiha clan's unique Chakra Refining Technique."
Naruto nodded. He now understood that to successfully release ninjutsu, he first had to refine chakra.
Fugaku then explained the detailed process of chakra refinement to Naruto. Actually, it wasn't very difficult. Someone with talent might even be able to produce a small amount of chakra in just one day.
On the other side, Sasuke was feeling helpless.
His father was obviously playing favorites. He had never demonstrated Water Style or Wind Style ninjutsu for him before.
Not long after, Naruto followed Fugaku's explanation and started training in chakra refinement. Fugaku was observing Naruto's progress, but his brows furrowed, and his expression became serious.
Naruto should have understood the steps of chakra refinement, but he still hadn't produced even the slightest amount of chakra.
He felt a bit puzzled. Could it be that Naruto hadn't inherited Minato's talent? It was actually quite common for the children of talented parents to not be particularly gifted. But even if that were the case, he wouldn't give up on teaching Naruto.
If he lacked natural talent, then with enough effort, he could still become a powerful ninja.
Moreover, with the Nine-Tails inside him, Naruto possessed nearly unlimited chakra. If he could incorporate that power into his jutsu, the results would be even more devastating.
At this moment, Ryosuke slowly walked over. Seeing Fugaku frowning, he wondered if Naruto's training wasn't going well.
His arrival even made Sasuke shift his attention. He stopped training and walked over. He was very curious about this person. Even Sasuke's older brother couldn't keep up with Uchiha Ryosuke's strength.
Right now, he was the strongest person in Konoha, even surpassing the Hokage.
He had even awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, something Sasuke deeply admired.
Ryosuke approached Fugaku and asked, "I just saw you frowning. Is there a problem?"
Fugaku had nothing to hide and replied, "I think Naruto might not have much talent as a ninja."
Even when Sasuke trained, he was able to produce at least a faint trace of chakra right away, even if it wasn't much. Most talented Uchiha clan members were also able to refine chakra upon their first attempts.
Hearing this, Naruto felt a little downhearted. Was he really untalented? His father had been the strongest Hokage in the village.
Last night, Mikoto had told him many stories about his parents. His father was extremely powerful, using his Flying Thunder God Jutsu to make enemies afraid to invade the Land of Fire. His mother was also a powerful Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.
Was he bringing shame to his parents?
But Ryosuke didn't think so. Naruto having no talent? That was impossible.
In the future, Naruto would be able to use a single Rasengan to create all sorts of variations. Like Wind Style: Rasenshuriken and Mini Rasenshuriken.
That was a level of creative talent. Someone with that kind of ability couldn't possibly be untalented.
In the original story, Naruto couldn't even perform a proper Clone Jutsu at the ninja academy. But later, he instantly learned the forbidden Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu.
That was like failing elementary school math but then suddenly mastering advanced calculus in university.
Later on, he even mastered Sage Mode with incredible proficiency. That alone was proof that Naruto was an incredibly terrifying genius.
Ryosuke also understood the real reason why Naruto appeared to be at the bottom.
It was because of the Nine-Tails inside him. That guy resented Naruto, the vessel that imprisoned him and took away his freedom.
The Nine-Tails knew very well that Naruto was the child of Minato and Kushina, the ones who had sealed him. Naturally, he wouldn't show Naruto any kindness.
So, during Naruto's training, the Nine-Tails would deliberately disrupt his chakra and interfere with his body's control.
That was why Naruto couldn't refine chakra properly and struggled to perform ninjutsu.
Ryosuke directly activated his Three Tomoe Sharingan, which slowly transformed into the Mangekyō Sharingan, immediately seeing through to the Nine-Tails within Naruto's inner world.
