Konoha: I have a gravity training room

Xia Mu stepped directly on the air and actually ran in the sky, which stunned Tiantian and Shino. Then he swept his foot in the air and kicked out a crescent-shaped slash, which directly cut the two insect clones into pieces.

There was no need for a demonstration of paper painting, as Shino had already learned it.

After landing, Xia Mu met Tian Tian's bright eyes and looked into Shino's reflective sunglasses. He smiled and said, "This is the Six Styles. Although it requires the use of water and earth attribute chakra, even if you don't have the corresponding chakra attributes, you can still learn it. Next, I will explain to you the principles of the Six Styles..."

Not long after, Xia Mu explained the principles and practice methods of the six styles in detail without hiding anything.

In addition, there are some precautions. For example, iron blocks and finger guns require the use of the Iron Transformation Technique. The body will absorb the characteristics of iron, which is more dangerous. Therefore, when practicing, you must first use the shadow clone to practice, and the use of the Iron Transformation Technique cannot exceed one minute, otherwise it is easy to hurt the body, which will not be worth the loss.

Shino nodded repeatedly after hearing this, obviously very satisfied with Rokushiki.

After he learned it, he was no longer afraid of the enemy fighting him with physical skills at close range. Just one move of the iron block could make the enemy return empty-handed.

"By the way, Shino, once you've learned it, hand the Six Styles over to Uncle Zhiwei and let him arrange it himself," Xia Mu suddenly said.

"this..."

Shino disagreed, "Natsuki, this is the result of your research..."

Xia Mu chuckled: "Haha, it's true that this is the result of my research, but it was also achieved with the strong support of the Aburame clan. Don't think I don't know that the ninjutsu you gave me was approved by Uncle Zhiwei. I am not shy with you, but I have to thank Uncle Zhiwei, otherwise what kind of person would I be!"

Shino opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

He understood Xia Mu's thoughts and knew that what Xia Mu was doing was right.

Even if those ninjutsu are not taken seriously by the clan, they are still the clan's assets. As the son of the clan leader, if he gives them to outsiders without authorization, it will definitely cause criticism. Not only will he, the son of the clan leader, be criticized, but Xia Mu may also be implicated, and even the clan leader may be questioned.

But if Natsuki gives back this six-style technique that can make up for the Aburame clan's weakness in physical skills, the voices of doubt and criticism will naturally disappear, and he will even receive a lot of praise.

In addition, if Natsuki returns the favor, his relationship with the Aburame clan will only get better.

However, this made Shino feel uncomfortable, because his original purpose was to help Natsuki, not for anything in return. Even if Natsuki shared the Six Styles with him, he could accept it with peace of mind, but he didn't want to watch Natsuki's research results being shared with others.

This will make him feel that there is something else mixed in with friendship.

Tiantian seemed to see what Shino was thinking and quickly said, "Shino, don't overthink it. In fact, the Six Styles is just one of Xia Mu's gains. He has more important achievements that he hasn't brought out yet. He doesn't dare to tell you because he's afraid that you will think he has selfish motives and won't share with you."

"Oh, there are more important results?"

Shino didn't quite believe it and thought he was just fooling around.

Xia Mu could only whisper: "Based on the ninjutsu you provided, I have comprehended the changes in chakra properties and integrated them with the changes in chakra forms. Currently, the moves are too powerful and need to be improved, so I can't use them for the time being."

Zhinai was shocked when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed.

He didn't expect that Xia Mu had already completed the fusion of chakra form change and nature change, which was something only a senior ninja could do.

In comparison, the Six Styles are not worth mentioning.

He asked uncertainly, "Really?"

Xia Mu was extremely sure: "Of course it's true, but I can't teach you."

Shino waved his hands quickly: "It's okay, it's okay. I mainly practice the art of controlling insects. I can't learn that kind of thing. But it's fine this way. Then I will spread the six styles within the clan without hesitation."

Xia Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, as he was afraid that Shino would get upset.

But he still reminded her, "It has to be kept secret for now. Don't tell me that I created it. Wait until I become a ninja. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll see a dark ninja next to my bed one day."

Shino of course understood and nodded very solemnly.

Tiantian also looked serious. She had been with Xia Mu for such a long time, and naturally Xia Mu had told her to hide her shortcomings. Thinking that the so-called dark ninjas were those guys lurking in the dark who would kidnap geniuses, Tiantian couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Her future boyfriend is such a genius, I hope he doesn't get targeted.

Not long after, Aburame Zhiwei called the three of them to eat.

Although the Aburame clan raises insects, they do not eat them, simply because they all like insects.

Shino is very obvious in this regard. For example, when they occasionally encounter insects passing by, Shino will not let his companions step on the insects, as that would make him uncomfortable.

However, the vegetables are grown well. In addition to raising insects, they are also eaten by ourselves.

Moreover, they are quite experienced in cooking vegetables, for example, Shino's mother is very good at it.

Chapter 34 Living in Tiantian's House

Shino's mother was not mentioned in the original work, but now looking at the identical suit of sunglasses and outfit, we know that she is a member of the Aburame clan.

Come to think of it, not to mention whether they intermarry with other races, the Oil Girls' characteristic of raising insects alone makes countless women stay away from them.

What else can I do besides marrying someone from my own tribe?

Fortunately, although Shino's parents seem difficult to get along with, they are actually very hospitable. Especially because Natsuki and Tenten are Shino's good friends, their enthusiasm is a little too much.

The key point is that Shino's mother likes to tease Natsuki and Tenten, saying that the two are a good match and she is also worried about whether Shino can find a partner in the future. After hearing these words, Shino blushed immediately, and Natsuki and Tenten were so embarrassed that they kept picking the soles of their shoes.

Xia Mu could only use the technique of changing the subject and bring the conversation back to cooking.

"Wow! Auntie, this dish is delicious. How is it made?"

"Wow! This winter melon soup is so delicious! No wonder Shino likes winter melon so much! It really is your cooking skill, Auntie!"

"Auntie, I saw that you have pumpkins planted in your yard. Pumpkin flowers and pumpkin vines can also be used for cooking. Just peel off the skin of the vines and stir-fry them with lean meat. It's great. Oh, and pumpkin flowers can also be made into tempura..."

For a while, Natsuki was chatting non-stop with Shino's mother. Sure enough, there was a topic between the two chefs.

After the meal, Shino and Tenten felt physically and mentally exhausted.

However, Xia Mu learned a lot of cooking tips, and before leaving, Shino's mother stuffed two baskets of vegetables into his hands. Her enthusiasm was really irresistible.

Xia Mu carried two baskets of vegetables and went home with Tiantian.

As soon as he got home, Tiantian couldn't help laughing: "Xia Mu, I didn't expect you and Auntie to be so good at chatting. Shino and I can't handle it."

Xia Mu didn't think so. "Middle-aged aunties are all like this. We just need to cater to their topics and then change the subject. Auntie usually cooks alone at home. It's rare for her to have someone to share her cooking skills with, so she naturally talks freely. It's better than having her tease us."

Tiantian thought of Shino's mother praising them for being a good match, and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

Xia Mu rummaged through the basket and found a lot of pumpkin vines and pumpkin flowers at the bottom of the basket. His eyes suddenly lit up.

"Tiantian, Auntie gave me some pumpkin flowers and vines. I'll go to your house tonight and make some pumpkin vine soup. I guarantee your dad will like it. By the way, can you make tempura? You can make some with the pumpkin flowers. It's delicious."

"Tempura, I can make it."

Tiantian was also inspired by Xia Mu's topic and started rummaging through the basket.

In the evening, the two of them carried a basket of vegetables back to Tiantian's house and started to get busy.

The shop owner was so happy to see this that he smiled from ear to ear. He disliked Xia Mu less and less. Instead, he felt like he was looking at his son-in-law. He was even a little anxious when he learned that the two were not dating yet.

These days, geniuses are coveted by others, so this son-in-law can't run away.

At dinner, the pumpkin vine lean meat soup and pumpkin flower tempura received unanimous praise. Natsuki and Tenten even thought of asking Shino to bring more next time.

After finishing the meal, the owner glanced at the dark sky outside and said, for the first time in his life, "It's getting late. Your home is far away, and it's not safe to go home at night. You should stay here tonight."

Xia Mu was shocked: "Uncle owner, are you serious?"

The shop owner's face suddenly turned black. "Do I need to say it again? Boy, I'm worried that you'll be kidnapped. The village has been uneasy lately, so you'd better be careful. But I'm warning you, don't try to sneak into Tiantian's room. If I find out, I'll break your legs!"

After saying that, he turned around, closed the shop door, and went back into the house.

Xia Mu and Tiantian stayed there staring at each other, feeling awkward and a little ambiguous for a moment.

However, the owner is actually quite right.

Recently, it seemed the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village's higher-ups had grown increasingly unstable, like a detonating talisman about to explode. Even the common villagers were feeling the oppressive atmosphere. Some gossipy villagers whispered that the village had apparently assigned ninja to monitor the Uchiha clan's territory, and that the Uchiha ninja had been recalled and would not be assigned any missions outside the village.

This is the rhythm of a fight about to start!

I just don't know if Uchiha Shisui is dead.

In such a situation, Xia Mu really shouldn't walk at night. It would be bad if he was implicated. Who knows when the weasel will make a move.

"Xia Mu? Xia Mu! What are you daydreaming about? I'll take you to your room."

Tiantian helped Xia Mu come back to his senses, then took Xia Mu to an empty room and kindly helped him make the bed.

However, Tiantian kept blushing. She was probably shy at the thought of Xia Mu staying at her house. But the girl soon became generous again and arranged everything in an orderly manner.

Xia Mu didn't hesitate and lay down after washing up.

But not long after, a small figure cautiously pushed open the door in the darkness, holding a small lamp in his hand, and walked in slowly.

When the small light was turned on, it was Tiantian with twin ponytails.

"day by day..."

"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't let my dad hear you."

Tiantian closed the door carefully like a thief, then sat down on the edge of the bed, looking hesitant but not saying a word for a long time.

Xia Mu took a look at Tiantian's pajamas and said something shocking: "Tiantian, aren't we developing too fast?"

Tiantian's face flushed crimson, and she scolded him, "You wish! I was just trying to talk to you privately about cultivation, but I just didn't know where to start. Don't get the wrong idea!"

You come here in your pajamas late at night and act so shy, how can I not feel crooked?

If I wasn't young and couldn't do anything, I'm afraid I'm not just thinking in the wrong direction!

Fortunately, Tiantian quickly organized his words: "Xia Mu, I have been training under your guidance for several months. My physical strength has indeed improved. Although my chakra is increasing slowly, it is indeed increasing. My control over chakra has also become more refined. I have also learned some of your ninjutsu. The most important summoning technique has also become proficient, and I have mastered several ninja tools..."

Xia Mu listened quietly, without any hurry, waiting for Tiantian to finish the preparations.

"But I feel like I've hit a bottleneck. I'm still young and don't dare to engage in high-intensity training, so my chakra has stagnated. And you, on the other hand, are getting better and better, and I feel like I'm being left far behind. I, I don't want this. I want to stand by you, but my strength is really not enough. Can you think of a way..."

Xia Mu understood.

This causes anxiety every day.

Even though he often worked hard with his two friends, his progress was slow, while his two friends were pulling away, the gap widening. Xia Mu's performance was especially impressive, and Tiantian felt like he would soon be gone. It was strange not to be anxious.

But she had no other choice but to ask Xia Mu for help.

Chapter 35 Electric Shock and Puppy Love

This is somewhat similar to Sasuke in the original work.

During the Chunin Exams in the original work, Naruto, who was originally at the bottom of the class, became increasingly outstanding, even summoning a giant toad and defeating Gaara, who had turned into a monster, in one fell swoop.

This shocked Sasuke, who had just learned Lightning Release: Chidori.

In the subsequent missions, Sasuke, despite being an Uchiha, rarely played a role, while Naruto, who was at the bottom of the list, became increasingly powerful.

Sasuke already had a blood feud and was determined to kill Uchiha Itachi, but his inherent pride would not allow Naruto to be better than him, and a conflict finally broke out on the rooftop of the hospital.

In short, the relationship between Class 7 at that time was as follows:

"Nothing much!"

"Sass here!"

"Stop it! Stop fighting!"

Well, it wasn't raining heavily at that time, but Sasuke was indeed very anxious at the time. It was the anxiety of a genius being overtaken by the last one and even being left further and further behind. It was natural for him to choose to join Orochimaru.

Tiantian’s psychology is somewhat similar, yet different.

She regards her boyfriend very seriously and wants to stand next to her boyfriend, not to be thrown away.

Xia Mu was not anxious when he thought of this, but instead rubbed Tiantian's hair affectionately: "You finally came to tell you, I have been waiting for a long time. I have been studying the matter of cultivation, not only to repay Shino, but also to consider you, my little cutie."

Tiantian's eyes lit up: "So, there is a way to help me improve? Good Xia Mu, tell me quickly!"

"Don't be impatient, just listen to me. I actually understood the changes in the nature of lightning chakra, and then I found that as long as I control the lightning to stimulate the body, it can continuously activate the cells..."

Thunder and lightning are a magical force.

There is a reason why characters in novels about cultivating immortals are struck by lightning when they undergo tribulations.

Lightning is powerful, yet it can stimulate the activation of the body, making it even stronger and even accelerating its self-regeneration. Scientifically speaking, this is because the power of lightning stimulates cellular activity, strengthening them while also accelerating the body's metabolism, naturally increasing physical strength.

After discovering this benefit, Xia Mu took the time to try it several times in a special laboratory. The pain was so pleasurable, it was really pleasurable.

Fortunately, he finally mastered the intensity of lightning that stimulated cells and activated them without destroying them.

Now that Tiantian has reached a bottleneck and is not suitable for high-intensity training due to his young age, he might as well try lightning stimulation.

Xia Mu was not afraid of anything happening. With his sophisticated control of chakra, even if something went wrong it would not be fatal. With the protection of Senzu Beans, he could just help Tiantian boldly.

"Xia Mu Xia Mu, give it to me quickly..." Tiantian urged.

"Don't say such misleading things!"
