Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 22 Still Water, Let Me Teach You to Sing!

On the banks of a small river outside the Uchiha clan's territory.

Chiga stood by the river wearing only a pair of shorts.

He took a deep breath, banished the distracting thoughts from his mind, and then stepped into the stream.

Step by step, Chiga slowly walked to the middle of the river.

Walking on the water to cultivate oneself.

This is about cultivating control over chakra.

Ever since Chiga obtained 5 chakra units from Kushina Uzumaki, he has had serious problems controlling his chakra.

Even the most proficient fire-style ninjutsu cannot be released properly.

He should have progressed gradually, starting with tree climbing as a form of training.

However, considering that he couldn't control his chakra output, he was afraid that he might destroy a tree with a single kick.

Within a few days, the police would arrest him for maliciously damaging the village's trees.

Therefore, Chiga could only walk on the water.

But water is a liquid, and it's a stream, so it's constantly flowing. To stand steadily on the water, the amount of chakra you need to control isn't constant.

Each step requires controlling the amount of chakra according to the changes in the water flow.

This is much more difficult than climbing a tree.

"Uncle, you can do it!"

Seeing that Chiga had come so far, Uchiha Shisui, who was on the shore, encouraged him.

"Shut up!"

Interfered with by Uchiha Shisui, Chiga's chakra flowing to the soles of her feet went out of control, and her feet began to slowly sink downwards.

Upon seeing this, Chiga immediately increased the amount of chakra he channeled into the soles of his feet.

Yes, just a little bit of chakra is enough.

Just a little bit!

Oh dear, there are too many again!

Bang!

Chiga's feet resembled the tail of a jet plane, and she spiraled upwards, flying more than three meters high before falling into the water.

As the ripples on the water subsided, Chika finally emerged from the water and complained to Uchiha Shisui, "If you disturb me while I'm training again, I'll beat you up!"

Uchiha Shisui ignored Chiga's threat and said earnestly, "Uncle, you've improved again. This time you only flew 3.25 meters, 0.65 meters less than before!"

He accurately measured Chiga's progress with the naked eye, but whether it was accurate or not, Shisui himself didn't know.

In an attempt to salvage his dignity, Qianhe retorted, "What do you know? Cultivating the ability to walk on water is incredibly difficult!"

"Really!"

Upon hearing this, Shisui tilted his head, glanced at the water, and then took a step forward, standing steadily on the water.

As Shisui walked up to Chiga, he even jogged a few steps around Chiga's head.

"Uncle, you're right, it's a bit difficult. I don't even dare to run fast anymore!"

"."

It seems he's led this water-stopping movement astray!

Although Chika was annoyed by Shisui, she couldn't help but admire Shisui's talent.

Having only observed his training for five days, he was able to control the amount of chakra so precisely on his first attempt.

After walking from the river to the bank, Chiga planned to summarize his experience and take a break before continuing his training.

"Uncle, did you start cultivating this because you want to graduate early?"

"Hmm, more or less."

Chiga gave a perfunctory reply, saying he hadn't been worried about the graduation exam at all.

However, if one's chakra control remains like this during the graduation exam, then an unexpected incident could indeed occur.

"Uncle, if you graduate, won't there be no one to cultivate with me?"

"I'm graduating, not dead!"

Chiga rolled her eyes.

"Uncle, the ninja academy is starting, and I'm enrolling too! It's such a pity I never had the chance to go to school with you!"

Chiga replied, "What a pity! It doesn't sound right at all that uncle and nephew are going to school together."

After saying that, seeing that Shisui did not respond, Chiga turned to look at Shisui.

Seeing the slight disappointment on Shisui's face, Chiga was taken aback.

It took me a while to understand.

During this period, he had quite a lot of contact with Shisui, and it seemed that Shisui had developed a bit of dependence on him.

This kid is only four years old; he's easily influenced.

As expected, the Uchiha clan members are either obsessed with their younger brothers or their older brothers.

Um, Shisui seems different, isn't he? Is he a fan of older men?

Chiga wasn't exactly a filial son, and he didn't know the skill of tapping the forehead. He thought for a moment and said to Shisui, "How about this, I'll teach you a song. If you can sing it at the opening ceremony, I won't graduate early."

"What song?" Zhi Shui's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"The sun shines brightly, the flowers smile at me, the birds chirp 'Good morning, good morning,' why are you carrying a bomb? Boom! The school disappears!"

As Chiga sang with increasing enthusiasm, Shisui's face darkened even more. "Uncle, I'll be expelled!"

Not only were all the teachers from the Ninja Academy present at the opening ceremony, but even the Third Hokage himself came to give a speech. If he were to sing this song on the spot, he would definitely die a terrible death.

"Dare you?"

"Uncle, you should graduate early and go to the battlefield. I think someone who can come up with a song like this would perform very well on the battlefield."

Chiga continued training, and during breaks, he would give Shisui pointers on swordsmanship.

A leisurely yet fulfilling day has come to an end.

Feeling an increased control over his chakra once again, Chiga said to Shisui, who was still training, "Alright, Shisui, that's enough for today."

"Um!"

As Qianhe spoke, he led Shisui toward the clan. After a few steps, he turned his head and glanced into the deep forest, his brows furrowing slightly.

He had been practicing chakra control here for the past few days, but he always felt like someone was watching him.

"What's wrong, Uncle?"

Shisui noticed Chiga's unusual behavior and asked.

Chika shook her head, said nothing more, and left.

Chiga's senses were correct; not long after Chiga left, a figure flashed past in the forest.

root.

In the shadows, the figure of Danzo with one eye was barely visible.

"How's the investigation going these past few days?"

"Judging from the Ninja Academy's report card, this person's strength is probably at the Genin level, but if you include the Sharingan, his strength is top-tier among Genin, which is not much different from the known information. However, his control over chakra is extremely poor. He has been practicing water walking for 5 days and has not even mastered the basics."

"Hmph, so he's just an ordinary ninja who awakened his clan's bloodline limit."

"Yes, that's the case according to the investigation. However, there was also a very talented boy named Uchiha Shisui by his side. He was able to walk freely on the water the first time he did it."

"Oh? Uchiha Shisui, I seem to have heard of him. A genius of the Uchiha clan."

Danzo pondered for a moment, but still felt that he should focus on Uchiha Chika first.

A Jinchūriki cannot have any members of the Uchiha clan around him.

The petty-minded Hiruzen Sarutobi actually transferred the two Anbu members who were monitoring the Jinchuriki to the front lines.

Danzo was furious when he thought about it. Just because of Uchiha Senga, he had lost track of the Jinchuriki's whereabouts!

As a guardian in the shadows of Konoha, how can you play without some intelligence?

"Find a Chunin from Root who is proficient in Water Release to be Chika Uchiha's examiner. I don't want to see Chika Uchiha graduate from the Ninja Academy!"

After all, he's just a seven-year-old boy. Even if he has opened his eyes, his strength won't be that great.

Furthermore, he specifically sought out a Water Release ninja who could counter Fire Release and Sharingan, so there shouldn't be any unexpected issues.

"clear!"
