Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Asuma, on the other hand, made no attempt to hide his schadenfreude, grinning as if to say, "You deserve it."

"puff."

Kurenai looked at his tuft of hair and couldn't resist touching it, but her hand was slapped away by Aoba as soon as she raised it.

"Hmph, you stingy little thing!"

Hong covered her little hands and pouted unhappily, "You've touched my head so many times, it's okay if I touch it once."

"Why is it okay? Boys won't grow taller if girls touch their heads."

Aoba started rambling on and on.

Of course, Kurenai wouldn't believe Aoba's nonsense.

"Our destination this time is the Land of Honey, which is quite far, but I've heard the scenery is beautiful."

Asuma was clearly in a good mood. He nudged Aoba with his elbow and said, "Speaking of which, it was your money that was spent this time. I suddenly realize you're a really good person."

In his view, this mission was practically a publicly funded vacation, paid for by the guy he hated most—there couldn't be a better thing.

Aoba glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Do you really think I spent 150,000 taels of silver to treat you to a trip?

Naive.

Just as the four of them stepped out of the gates of Konoha.

Kurenai stopped and looked at Kurenai and Asuma.

"Put these on!"

"I've heard that the Honey Country's Hundred Flower Wine is very famous. The reward for this mission is so high, we must try it when we get there."

"And the hot springs over there are said to be very good for the skin." Hong was also somewhat tempted.

The two chatted back and forth, treating this mission as a paid vacation.

Shinku, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.

"You guys seem to have a lot of energy."

Shinku turned around, her gaze sweeping over the two of them. "In that case, let's begin the special training now."

After saying that, he glanced at Aoba.

"Huh?"

Asuma was stunned. "Special training? Now?"

Then Aoba took a bag out of the sealing scroll and threw it in front of the two of them.

"Put it on."

"This is?"

Asma was a little confused, and then he was completely dumbfounded when he opened the bag.

"Weighted blocks?"

"This mission involves a long journey, so we'll use this time for special training."

Shinku looked at Asuma and said, "Besides basic taijutsu, you also need to improve your chakra control. Although you've mastered the Wind Release: Nature Transformation, your application is too rough. I remember you also have Fire Release chakra, so you must also acquire that. Combining wind and fire will better unleash the power of ninjutsu. In the upcoming journey, your main opponent will be Aoba."

"what?"

Asuma turned to look at Aoba, who even gave him a "friendly" smile.

Asma felt a chill run down his spine.

After arranging Asuma's affairs, it was Kurenai's turn. "A ninja's growth cannot be separated from the combination of actual combat and training. Kurenai, your genjutsu foundation is good, but taijutsu is a weakness. For the rest of the journey, except when you are sleeping, do not unload your weights. While keeping moving, you must pay attention to your surroundings. Aoba and I will launch a surprise attack on you at any time."

Upon hearing this, Hong's face immediately fell, and she looked at Zhen Hong with a pitiful expression.

Unfortunately, the tricks that used to work every time failed today.

Seeing that Asuma had already put on the weights, Red could only follow along with a wronged expression.

Shinku almost softened her heart just now, but fortunately she managed to control her expression in time.

In fact, this training plan was decided before returning to the village. As long as a ninja has blood on his hands, he will experience a period of increased strength.

Shinku planned to conduct a short-term training camp for the team in the village, but Aoba had a different idea. He felt that they should go outside the village, as such an opportunity for improvement was rare.

The external environment is more complex, and training in complex environments will be closer to real combat.

However, Shinku said that the situation in the ninja world is currently very unpredictable, and it is unlikely that she would be allowed to leave the village for training.

Aoba said he would handle it.

However, Aoba's actions truly surprised him.

By using commercial activities to bypass the task posting rules, they indirectly post task commissions for their own team.

And this was done right under the Hokage's nose; it was like dancing in front of Madara, and the consequences were predictable.

And it's precisely because Aoba can do this that young people are so ignorant.

What adult would get angry with a child?

Being good at exploiting loopholes in the rules shows you're smart; if it were anyone else, the Hokage would have been done for if he hadn't killed them.

As for the lesson he taught Aoba later, it was meant to be a lesson for the Hokage, since the Hokage is a magnanimous adult and a parent shouldn't be so ignorant.

It's an unspoken understanding among adults!

"Alright, time is precious, let's warm up first."

Zhen Hong pointed to the woods by the roadside, "Let's just climb the trees, maintain chakra absorption, and go full speed ahead."

"ah?!"

Two mournful cries echoed through the forest.

This load is quite heavy; walking is difficult, and you'd probably fall and get bruised and battered if you tried to move around in the forest.

……

The days that followed were hell for Red and Asuma.

During the day, one must constantly maintain chakra while traveling, as a slight misstep could result in falling from a tree and landing face-first in the dirt. At night, one either studies theory or practices chakra nature transformations, and must also be prepared to deal with sudden attacks from Aoba's shadow clones.

Asuma, in particular, was targeted and was clearly being targeted.

Asuma is really tough. If he can't beat Aoba's real body, does that mean he really can't beat the shadow clone?

It turns out they really couldn't beat them...

Asuma almost became withdrawn.

How could he know so many strange ninjutsu? It's one thing to be able to absorb people's chakra, but he also keeps throwing a chakra ball at people's faces. He saw the effect of that chakra ball hitting a rock with his own eyes. He doesn't think his small body is harder than a rock.

Furthermore, this guy even used a sealing technique on him that he himself didn't understand the effect of.

This resulted in his chakra being sealed for three days, and he couldn't unseal it.

Without chakra and not allowed to remove the weights, he could only rely on his own strength to endure it.

Isn't this bullying honest people?!

Asuma got angry and snapped.

Ugh~

The key point is that this guy is also a medical ninja; if you get injured, you have to be treated by him.

Once, Asma broke his hand and his thigh was pierced by a sharp tree branch, but he was healed in less than half an hour.

Not to mention Asuma, even Kurenai Yuhi was shocked. He knew that Aoba's medical ninjutsu was quite good, but he didn't expect it to be this powerful.

As a seasoned Jonin, he was very clear about what the [Healing Palm Technique] represented.

This leads to a doubling of training volume.

With such strong medical ninjas as logistical support, one has no choice but to train relentlessly.

I was worried about getting injured and affecting my training, but now I train like crazy as long as I don't die.

No need to worry about bleeding anymore. As long as you don't die on the spot from a fatal blow, Aoba can bring you back to life on the spot.

"The nature of wind is cutting; it must be sharp and thin."

Shinku held a leaf in her hand, her chakra surging slightly. The leaf instantly split in two, the cut as smooth as a mirror.
