Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"Come on, hurry up! I need to be asleep before nine o'clock."

"..." Naruto.

9:04.

The bedroom was pitch black.

"Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy," Hanabi said, dragging him into bed. Naruto, unable to sleep, stared straight at the ceiling.

Is it wrong to like women's clothing? What man hasn't worn women's clothing?

Silent all night.

The next day.

Naruto, who hadn't slept all night, got up energetically for his morning exercise, showing no signs of insomnia or staying up all night.

"Brother-in-law! Take this!" Hanabi, who was also doing her morning exercise, suddenly attacked Naruto.

It was a sneak attack.

Naruto, who was training while distracted by the matter of Indra's chakra and Kaguya's chakra, was completely caught off guard by Hanabi's actions and couldn't react in time.

Unconsciously, the passive instinct effect was triggered, and the body automatically dodged.

"You managed to dodge that?" Hanabi was surprised, but then became serious.

White eye activated.

Chakra burst forth.

They gave chase.

"Nine-Tails! Did you see that? I didn't relinquish control of my body just now!" Naruto's consciousness appeared in the sealed space.

“Hmm.” Nine-Tails said, “It seems that it has nothing to do with whether you are relaxed or not, but rather whether you are on guard.”

"I think that telling myself that I'm not in any danger and don't need to defend, dodge, or be on guard might reliably trigger this passive instinct," Naruto said.

"In other words, it's commonly known as deceiving yourself. You can't deceive your body; you can only deceive your mind."

“It’s worth a try.” Nine-Tailed Fox nodded.

With a new idea in mind, Naruto couldn't wait to try it out.

The shadow clones came in handy at this moment, splitting off one to go find Kakashi.

They left around 6 a.m. and didn't return until 11:47 a.m.

He dropped a scroll, and the shadow clone dispelled itself, allowing his memories to flow back and letting Naruto know what had happened during that time.

First, they found Kakashi, who was resting at home, and explained their purpose.

Kakashi said he only knew how to use complete genjutsu and didn't have a deep understanding of genjutsu, but he did agree with Naruto's idea of ​​deceiving himself.

The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road.

If you can deceive yourself and forget your fear during combat, you can improve your combat ability to some extent.

At the very least, they won't be at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

Immediately afterwards, Kakashi used his shadow clones to find Kurenai Yuhi, a Jonin skilled in genjutsu.

"Usually you're thinking about how to use it on others, how to defeat your enemies, how could you think of deceiving yourself?" Hong asked in surprise.

Then, after spending more than two hours and making numerous adjustments, they developed an illusion of self-deception, the level of which is currently undetermined.

Chapter 71 is practically perfect.

"Zi, Xu, Si, Chou".

Interlaced like mountains.

Without systematic training in genjutsu, Naruto couldn't understand the principles behind it, and couldn't grasp not only what it was, but also why it was so.

It's okay, he's not going to take the illusion master certification exam. For him, illusion is just something that works.

"Um, let me see. The chakra flow is here, here, and here. Oh, we need to pause for a bit, accumulate a little, and then sprint."

Kurenai had instructed that the chakra flow and hand seals must be strictly followed.

Because this is deceiving yourself, it involves the brain, and if you make even the slightest mistake, it's no joke; you could easily turn into an idiot in a minute.

To avoid any accidents and ending up in the hospital, you have to be extremely careful.

Naruto had no intention of trying to use his self-healing abilities to repair brain damage; naturally, he remained obedient and dared not overstep his bounds.

The contents recorded in this scroll were copied exactly.

There was not a single omission or error.

In ten minutes, I memorized the flow of chakra and could recite it backwards.

Three more shadow clones were created, and the test lasted for about an hour.

After mastering the technique, Naruto, having released the Shadow Clone Technique and gained the memories and experience, paused briefly before suddenly clasping his hands together, completing four hand seals in two seconds.

One more thing to mention here.

The hand seals must be coordinated with the flow of chakra within the body; they cannot be performed quickly simply by wishing for them.

Naruto can perform ten hand seals per second, or even more, but that's useless; he can't unleash a ninjutsu.

It must be coordinated with the flow of chakra within the body.

If coordination is inconsistent, it may lead to failure of the procedure, or even injury.

"That's it? I don't feel anything." Naruto checked his current state and found that it was no different from before he used it.

"Let's try using shadow clones to attack," Kurama, who was watching the situation closely, said.

Naruto formed hand seals and created three more shadow clones.

The shadow clone attacked the main body without hesitation as soon as it appeared.

The approaching fist was reflected in her azure eyes.

He could also hear the sound of approaching fists.

Naruto had only one feeling at that moment.

That's it?

Such a weak attack wouldn't cause any damage; it's like a tickle, not even a drizzle, so there's no need to dodge.

His feeling was that subconsciously he didn't intend to dodge, but his body reacted automatically at the last second before he was attacked.

With a casual slide, he dodged aside.

"Oh my!" Naruto's eyes lit up, and he said, "Keep going, don't stop."

The shadow clones exchanged a glance and launched another attack simultaneously, not fighting individually, but coordinating with each other.

No matter how hard the shadow clones tried, they couldn't touch Naruto's clothes.

His body was exceptionally light, his movements extremely graceful, and every gesture exuded a relaxed, natural, and fluid quality.

What appears to be a fierce combined attack is often evaded perfectly by tilting the head to one side and leaning back slightly, using a very simple, ordinary, and effortless movement.

“Nine-Tails,” Naruto said.

Sealed space.

Seeing the Nine-Tails' intrigue, he understood and transferred chakra to the three shadow clones that were attacking, giving them assistance.

The shadow clones, now in their unified One-Tailed state, experienced a surge in speed, making their attacks increasingly fierce and agile.

"Brother-in-law, it's lunch break time! Why aren't you sleeping with me? What are you doing?" Hanabi, who was woken up by the noise in the living room and just needed to go to the bathroom, came out and complained.

Upon entering, four figures could be seen moving about in the small living room, with Naruto's true form being the most conspicuous.

"..." Hanabi.

What is this doing?

You have nowhere to fight? You want to fight at home, but this isn't really a fight.

To be fair, my brother-in-law is really handsome—that calm, unhurried demeanor, that confident and carefree attitude, that…

"Hahaha!"

Naruto couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh, but his joy turned to sorrow as he choked on his own saliva, coughing until tears streamed down his face.

Fireworks remained silent, turned around and went into the bathroom. After finishing, she went back to her bedroom for a nap.

Ignoring Hanabi, Naruto released his Shadow Clone Jutsu and danced with excitement.

I thought I would have to fully master the Spirit Transformation Technique before I could reliably trigger my passive instincts.

Unexpectedly, the sudden inspiration was simply a simple illusion that solved the problem. His joy at that moment was beyond words.

"With this passive instinct, your lack of practical combat experience is no longer a weakness," Nine-Tails said.

“Yes!” Naruto nodded.

From the very beginning, he knew where his weaknesses lay.

Lack of combat awareness.

Having not experienced many life-or-death battles, he can still win games with overwhelming strength.

Let alone a situation where the enemy is strong and we are at a disadvantage, as long as a ninja with similar strength and rich combat experience comes along, we can easily crush him.

Naruto's original plan was to hone his combat awareness and make up for this weakness during his training with Jiraiya outside the village.

Before that, his fighting style was primarily based on ninjutsu, with taijutsu as a secondary method.

There's no way around it; my awareness can't keep up, and my physical skills are lacking.

Now, there's no need for that anymore; the emergence of passive instinct perfectly compensates for his deficiency.

He doesn't need to hone his combat awareness; his body will automatically evade and dodge.

He just needs to seize the right opportunity to attack.

Then, exercise to improve your physical fitness.
