Entry: Konoha Genius

Acquisition Requirements: Become a Chunin at the age of six, breaking the lower limit of the age for promotion to Chunin in Konoha.

Effect: Increases comprehension by 50%.

Before training with Tsunade, Hoshino Shuichi had secretly checked this skill, and during the training process, he truly felt the effect of his talent improvement.

Even if it's only 50%, it's still a significant improvement compared to yesterday.

"The overall improvement of 50% means that my talent for using ninja tools, fire release, and sealing techniques have also improved by 50% from the original level."

The initial Fire Release talent is 1, then after obtaining the [Fire Release Expert] title it becomes 2, so now it's 2+1, 3!

He also has talent in sealing techniques and curse seals. In these areas, his starting point is already higher than that of fire release, which means that the percentage increase will be even greater.

"Let's try the sealing technique tonight..."

After thinking it over, Hoshino Hideichi picked up his backpack and went to meet up with Shizune and the others.

When they arrived at the location, they saw that Shizune and the others were already training, and Sarutobi Asuma was being besieged.

However, this time they used not clay pellets, but completely recyclable modeling clay.

Upon seeing Hoshino Shuichi arrive, everyone paused temporarily. Shizune explained, "This idea came from Asuma; it allows for better simulation of various ninja tools."

Hoshino Hideichi's eyes lit up: "A very interesting idea."

Matt Kai said, "I think it would be more fun and exciting if everyone competed together."

"Then let's have a competition!"

Hoshita Shuichi looked at Kakashi with a mischievous grin: "For example, if Kakashi loses, then pull down your mask and let everyone see your true face!"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Kakashi's face.

Shizune immediately raised her hand: "I agree with Shuichi!"

Nohara Rin also quietly offered her support; she wanted to watch it too.

Others also raised their hands in agreement.

Kakashi was filled with helplessness. Although he wanted to refuse, Hoshino Shuichi's side had the advantage of numbers.

Then Obito Uchiha jumped out: "Kakashi, I'll challenge you to a match!"

Kakashi said calmly, "You are no match for me!"

Obito Uchiha sneered, "Kakashi, don't look down on me. I'm an Uchiha."

Kakashi retorted, "We'll see when you awaken your Sharingan!"

Seeing the two arguing, Hoshino Shuichi immediately took control: "Then it's decided, Kakashi vs. Obito."

"Whoever gets hit by the clay the most times within the allotted time loses."

"Kakashi is defeated, he pulls down his mask. Obito is defeated..."

Hoshino paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Obito was defeated, so he has to dance in front of everyone!"

Obito Uchiha was stunned: Dance...?

Realizing what he had done, he quickly shouted, "I...I can't dance!"

Hoshino Shizuka smiled wickedly: "It's okay, jump however you like!"

"Unless you think you can't beat Kakashi."

Obito Uchiha immediately fell for the trap and reluctantly agreed.

So the group moved into the forest, where Hoshino Shuichi acted as the referee to keep track of how many times Kakashi and Obito Uchiha were hit by the clay.

Currently, only he has this ability.

Meanwhile, Shizune, Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, Guy, and Nohara Rin were responsible for throwing the clay as shuriken and kunai at Kakashi and Uchiha Obito.

Once everything was ready, the match began with Kakashi.

Figures leaped and bounded through the forest, occasionally throwing clay at Kakashi. Kakashi, with a short sword in one hand and a kunai in the other, either dodged or sliced ​​the flying clay in two.

Five minutes later, everyone stopped, and Hoshino Shuichi announced the result: "5 times!"

"Kakashi, looks like you're not so great after all!"

Obito Uchiha exclaimed confidently, "Watch me now!"

The group collected the clay, kneaded it back into balls, and then threw them at Obito Uchiha.

Five minutes later, Obito Uchiha walked out of the forest, dejected.

He was hit a total of 10 times!

So, under everyone's gaze, Obito Uchiha awkwardly began to dance, and everyone burst into laughter. Obito then simply closed his eyes and danced wildly.

When he opened his eyes, Rin Haruno was already beside him, and Obito Uchiha immediately smiled.

Seeing this joyful scene, Hoshino Shuichi couldn't help but regret not bringing a camera.

Moreover, this scene should become a beautiful memory in the future!

……

That evening, in his study, Hoshino Hideichi was intently studying the Yin Seal sealing technique.

Compared to before, studying is indeed much easier now.

Talent and comprehension are really important!

The difference between people can sometimes be greater than the difference between people and pigs, especially in terms of intelligence!

Time flew by and it was already 10 o'clock. Hoshino Hideichi packed up his scrolls and was about to go to sleep when he remembered the gift Tianyun had given him. He quickly took it out of his backpack.

Upon unrolling the scroll, Hoshino Hideichi was pleasantly surprised: "It's a storage scroll!"

It is a type of sealing scroll specifically designed for sealing away items.

"Looks like I can just carry this scroll with me on missions from now on..."

Hoshino Shuichi took his backpack and tried sealing it into the roll; it was very good.

Moreover, the size of the roll is just right for him to carry on his back.

After tidying up, Hoshino Hideichi went to bed and fell asleep.

He used to go to bed at midnight, but Yakushi Nonou made him go to bed at 10 pm. He changed his habit back after a few days at the orphanage.

Silent all night.

The next day, a new mission arrived, and this time it was to go to the Bear Country, passing through the Rain Country and the Bird Country along the way.

After bidding farewell to Yakushi Nonou and Tenyun, Hoshishita Shuichi gathered at the village entrance and then headed straight for the Daimyo's residence.

This mission is to escort the daimyo's envoy to the Land of Bears.

They arrived in Daimyofu at noon as usual, but did not immediately set off for the Land of Bears that day.

After strolling around the bustling Daimyo's city, Hoshino Shuichi returned to his inn and asked Minato Namikaze about sealing techniques, while Uchiha Shisui discussed genjutsu with Kurama Sanyou.

The afternoon passed in the blink of an eye, and it was time for lunch. At the end, Minato Namikaze couldn't help but sigh, "Shuichi, your talent in sealing techniques is even more outstanding than I knew before."

Yeah, probably about the same as him.

Hoshita Shuichi put away his filled notebook and smiled, "It's all thanks to your excellent teaching, Minato-sensei!"

Minato Namikaze laughed happily upon hearing this, then stood up: "Let's go, let's eat first!"

After dinner, the four members of the team strolled around the night market in Daming Prefecture to digest their food before heading back.

Hoshita Shuichi first practiced swordsmanship with Uchiha Shisui, then learned sealing techniques from Namikaze Minato, and finally rested at 10 p.m.

When he saw that Hoshino Shu had just started to rest, Kurama Yamayo breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I've gotten used to Hoshino Shuichi's self-discipline and madness, I still feel pressured.

Moreover, Hoshino Shuichi's talent is truly astonishing.

Taijutsu, swordsmanship, fire jutsu, sealing techniques—will there be genjutsu in the future?

Uchiha Shisui patted Kurama Sanyou on the shoulder and laughed, "That's a genius!"

He felt the pressure, but even more so, he felt motivated!

Kurama Sanyou rolled his eyes: "Shisui, you're a genius too!"
