At the crossroads, Tatsumi was hiding in a shadow.
He looked up—the sun was already scorching the earth.
Tatsumi had been waiting here for almost twenty minutes. But Kushina, who had promised to come for tutoring, had not yet arrived.
It is not a false rumor that girls take a long time to get ready before going out.
It seems that in the future, when going out with girls, it is perfectly fine to go twenty minutes late than the agreed time.
"I hope nothing happened to her." Tatsumi was a little worried. It was not impossible for an accident to happen—after all, he remembered that Kushina had been captured by Hidden Cloud Village before.
Tatsumi was about to go to Nawaki's house to find her.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from not far away.
Tatsumi looked up and realized that Kushina had arrived.
Kushina was wearing a black ninja suit today, and her red hair was tied into a ponytail.
Seeing Tatsumi, Kushina immediately showed a bright smile.
"I'm sorry, Tatsumi, I'm late. Tsunade sister kept holding me and telling me some precautions."
"Huh? Are they precautions regarding training?" Tatsumi was a little surprised.
Lazy Tsunade is occasionally quite reliable.
"No... no. She said it was about precautions against perverts."
Hmm? Tatsumi nodded. Tsunade shouldn't be talking about him—maybe.
Tatsumi still had a bit of self-awareness in this regard.
"In short, come with me."
"Okay."
Summer has begun to move forward step by step at its own pace. The pedestrians on the commercial street were still in a constant stream.
"Wow, there are so many people here." Kushina looked like she had never seen the world.
"Kushina, you haven't had a good stroll around Konoha, have you?" Tatsumi asked.
Kushina showed envious eyes and then nodded.
"Indeed. Because I have been learning some very complex and difficult patterns from grandma recently, I haven't had the opportunity to go out and play."
Tatsumi nodded—it seems that Mito Uzumaki was teaching Kushina sealing techniques.
"Then how did you get out today?" Tatsumi asked.
"Well, I told Mito grandma yesterday if I could come out for training today. Grandma said yes and told me to have fun."
Tatsumi nodded. He didn't know how many Anbu were lurking around Kushina to protect her.
But Tatsumi did not deliberately check. After all, these things were of no benefit to him. Just pretend that he didn't know.
After speaking, Tatsumi walked to a small stall.
"Uncle Samue, two servings of ice cream."
"Okay, kid. Going to train again?"
"Yes."
Tatsumi handed the ice cream to Kushina.
"Ah, ice cream is so delicious! It's the first time I've eaten something so delicious."
Kushina took a big bite of the ice cream in her hand, and after carefully feeling it, let out a satisfied sound.
War, Tatsumi sighed. He was still a little fortunate that he was not born in a chaotic village.
Because of the war, Uzushiogakure was destroyed, and Kushina had spent her childhood in war, never experiencing these things.
War is always the most terrible thing. It makes the most lively people silent, makes the most tenacious waiting boring, and makes the most sensitive hearts dull.
Tatsumi said to the excited Kushina, "How about I take you to eat something even more delicious after the special training is over?"
"Okay!" Kushina was instantly full of energy.
After leaving the commercial street, the two ran all the way. Although Tatsumi deliberately slowed down, it was still something that Kushina could not bear.
Several minutes later, the two arrived at the small forest behind the Hokage Rock, which is where Tatsumi had been training.
"Huff..."
At this speed, even with Kushina's stamina, her breathing became extremely rapid.
However, for Tatsumi, this was just the most routine speed, and it could not make him feel tired at all.
Tatsumi and Kushina stood in the shade of the tree, the breeze caressing their cheeks, extremely comfortable.
Kushina scratched her head of bright red hair, and in the sun, the red hair added a hazy beauty.
Kushina's stamina was amazing, so this feeling of fatigue did not last long before she recovered.
After resting for a while, Tatsumi asked, "Kushina, what do you want to train specifically?"
"That... um, can you teach me the Kunai throwing you used last time?" Kushina scratched her hair.
"It's not a problem to teach you."
Tatsumi nodded and sized her up and down until Kushina started to feel a little embarrassed.
"Wha... what are you looking at?" Kushina's face was as red as a tomato.
"I'm just seeing if your Chakra control is enough."
"Can you even tell that?"
"No, I'm just saying that casually." Tatsumi shook his head.
"..."
"First of all, your Kunai throwing is not good. You need to put in the effort yourself." Tatsumi said.
Kushina was a little disappointed.
"How should I put it, Kunai throwing combined with Sharingan can exert its true power. So, for you, as long as you put a little effort into Kunai, you can have an average level."
"Everyone needs to know where their advantages lie. And your advantage is not here. Kushina, do you know where your advantage lies?"
"Where?" Kushina showed a puzzled expression.
"In the amount of Chakra."
"Your current amount of Chakra is even more than Uncle Nishimura, who is a Chunin. That's too exaggerated." Tatsumi stared at Kushina.
"However, whether you want to learn Super Strength throwing, this extremely explosive move, or other ninjutsu, there is an absolute threshold that cannot be bypassed—Chakra control." Tatsumi continued.
"And the control of Chakra is the basis for releasing ninjutsu and using Chakra. Everyone's control is different."
"But for most people, everyone is about the same at the beginning. Of course, there are also some people who are born with very little Chakra but are geniuses with very good control."
"The control of Chakra is very important—without precise Chakra control, everything else is empty talk. I don't need you to have excellent control, but there are some aspects that you must know."
After speaking, Tatsumi walked to the bottom of the big tree, and then he walked up the tree slowly.
After walking to the tree, Tatsumi jumped down from above, landed lightly on the ground, and said to the somewhat dazed Kushina,
"Gather Chakra at the soles of your feet, and after generating a suction force, you can walk on a vertical tree. This is a method of training. After completing it, I will teach you the next step."
