Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 449 Angry Parents

The next few days.

Jianchuan Ju spent most of her energy training the little ones.

However, there was a little incident during this period.

That day, in order to test "Sage Mode", Tachibana Kenkawa caused a torrential downpour in the "Secret Space", and because she was too excited, she completely forgot about cleaning afterwards.

When Lanzi got home that night, he saw the messy "secret space" and flew into a rage.

The basement was flooded, the orchard was submerged, and parts of the building floor became muddy.

In other words, it is also windy and rainy inside the "secret space", and Lan Zai put a lot of effort into building it.

Waterproofing was taken into account, which prevented the building from collapsing or being damaged.

Even so, the little guy was so angry that he went on a long cold war with him.

Later, when Jianchuan Ju remembered to ask Xiaoji for help, he used his "command skills" more than ten times in a row to restore most of the "disaster-stricken" areas to their original state.

He also promised to spend more time later, using his Wood Release technique to build according to Lan Zai's needs.

This finally made the little frog start paying attention to its unreliable owner again.

However, today, only Jianchuan Ju was guiding these four little ones in their training.

It's not that Lanzi is still having a falling out with Jianchuan Ju.

However, when Blue learned that Tachibana had successfully mastered Sage Mode and that Togepi could also use Sage Mode, it was the only one of the three family members who had not mastered this ability.

The very competitive Lanzi has been practicing sensing natural energy these past few days to lay a solid foundation for learning Sage Mode later.

Fortunately, Lan Zai's training in Sage Mode wasn't entirely starting from scratch.

Not to mention that Jianchuan Tachibana was able to help Lanzai experience the Sage Mode state in advance through the "Bond Evolution" combo mode several times.

Even during Blue's daily training, Togepi would occasionally flick his finger and unleash some Fairy-type moves, which greatly helped his training in sensing natural energy.

It's estimated that achieving true immortality wouldn't be too difficult for Lan Zai.

Let's not even mention Lan Zai, who is still diligently cultivating himself.

In the past few days, Jianchuan Ju has mainly focused on training the little guys in combat experience and ensuring they master their existing skills.

Aside from one or two targeted ninjutsu that might be very useful in the upcoming third match.

Jianchuan Ju did not force-feed them any more unnecessary moves, thus wasting their precious training time.

However...

Perhaps Tachibana Kanagawa's standards are too high right now, or perhaps he is more aware of the strength of Uchiha Shisui, the genius of Konoha.

So during the training process, when he looked at these little guys, he always felt that they were lacking in some way.

"Full Moon! I told you! You're not a cannonball! How come I don't remember when I taught you how to use water jets, I told you to shoot yourself straight out???"

"Swimming fish! Do you understand, swimming fish?! Even if you have the ability to transform into water, meaning you don't need to dodge most attacks, you still need to use the agility of water jets to find better angles to attack, understand?!"

Hozuki Mangetsu, who had just used "Water Jet" and crashed into an obstacle, then used the water to straighten through several obstacles before finally reaching the finish line.

Startled, she shrank back, obediently dispelling her water transformation, and walked up to Jianchuan Ju to receive a scolding.

"Yes, teacher!"

"You can dodge the wooden stake with water, you can dodge the shuriken, but what about fire ninjutsu? Lightning ninjutsu? Tailed Beast Ball?! You're going to just run headfirst into them too?!"

Looking at Hozuki Mangetsu, whom he had told himself to change several times but still couldn't.

Jianchuan Ju grew angrier the more she thought about it.

"And another thing! Stop thinking about your sniping! How big is the exam arena? How much time will you have to charge up your shot during a real fight? And how much power can a shot have without charging up?"

"What about your family's water-powered cannon technique? Don't you know that you should apply it flexibly according to the actual situation in battle?"

"And where's your knife? It was working perfectly fine before. Are you carrying around this broken iron pipe every day to hunt birds?"

Seeing that Tachibana Kenkawa was getting angrier the more she talked, Kabuto Saigyouji quickly stepped forward to calm her down.

"Brother Jianchuan, calm down. You'll definitely remember this after the full moon!"

To everyone's surprise, when Tachibana saw Kabuto running over to comfort her, she not only didn't calm down, but became even angrier.

"So you're saying he didn't mention you, right?"

"In that battle just now, they were clearly within attack range. A Flash followed by a Mighty Punch could have easily finished them off! Why did they have to lure them into that damn bomb?"

"So it shows you're clever enough to set traps, right?"

Seeing Kabuto's distorted expression and his hesitant look, Tachibana immediately guessed what he wanted to say.

"So you're saying your superhuman strength isn't properly developed and using it will cause injury, right?"

"If you haven't practiced enough, keep practicing! Besides, you're a medical ninja, what are you afraid of getting injured?! In a tournament, as long as you successfully defeat your opponent and end the match, you can treat any injuries after you come off the field, right?"

"I'm always thinking of ending the battle with traps, but what if the enemy sees through it? What if they suddenly unleash a powerful attack while the battle drags on?"

"At crucial moments, you must have enough courage to seize the opportunity! If you don't even have this much decisiveness, don't even think about becoming a Chunin!"

Hearing Tachibana's analysis, Kabuto knew that these words were all for his own good, so he naturally didn't argue back.

He nodded honestly and admitted his mistake.

"I know, it won't happen again, Brother Jianchuan!"

"What the hell?! Call me 'teacher' during training!!"

At the other end of the training field, Honglian huddled in a corner, trembling like a quail.

She whispered to Ringo Ameryu beside her.

"Lord Mizukage, is this normal all the time?"

Honglian thought back to the first day she met Jianchuan Ju.

That Mizukage, whose face always wore a sunny smile, was kind, reliable, and made people feel like they were basking in a spring breeze, like a big brother next door.

Suddenly, I felt like my idol filter had shattered into pieces.

Ringo Ameyuri, whom he asked, seemed completely unconcerned and laughed heartily as she answered.

"Tachibana-sensei isn't usually like this, and besides, it's practice time now~"

"Those two never learn their lesson, that's why Ms. Tachibana is so strict. Look at us, the two of us behaved so well, Ms. Tachibana wouldn't get angry at us~"

Upon hearing this, Honglian breathed a slight sigh of relief and straightened her posture a little.

But the next moment, an angry roar came from afar.

"Rain—Yuri!!"

"Still slacking off! How's your iron block training going?! You want to end up covered in injuries again in the next fight, don't you?!"

Upon hearing the roar, Ringo grinned and stuck out her tongue at Guren beside her before quickly running towards Tachibana.

Honglian was left standing there, completely bewildered.
