Kazami Hatake carefully gripped the scabbard, avoiding touching the hilt.

Akabane stood to the side, awkwardly smiling but not daring to reply.

That's true. The Hatake clan has been passed down from the Warring States period to the present day, and has even created a unique ninja sword technique. Everyone in Konoha who uses a sword wants to challenge him.

Akabane simply didn't use a sword, nor did he want to fight his opponent—a battle where he was simply being beaten was meaningless.

"The number of sword strikes doesn't represent strength; it simply means different areas of expertise in combat..."

Kazami Hatake was unusually talkative.

Dual-wielding is good for group battles, while single-wielding is good for one-on-one duels and assassinations, and there are many other details as well.

"Mmmmmmm!"

Akabane listened and nodded. Although he wasn't particularly interested in these points of knowledge, at this critical juncture, he dared not provoke Kazami Hatake.

Okay, it goes in one ear and out the other.

Kazami Hatake was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "If you're going to draw, draw it properly. Don't be too casual, and don't make the plot too outrageous. After all, the tradition of swordsmanship has a long history..."

"I see."

Akabane nodded repeatedly.

"gone."

Kazami Hatake was feeling depressed. Even though he had given her a good scolding, he didn't know why he felt even angrier.

When in a bad mood, one's tone becomes cold.

Actually, Akabane originally wanted to ask if, as the vice-captain of the preparatory department, he could spare some time to teach a few classes.

But having just been reprimanded, he dared not make such a request.

"call!"

Akabane only relaxed after he could no longer see anyone and looked around to make sure that Kazami Hatake had left.

Thankfully, at least I wasn't beaten too badly.

After taking only a few steps, he suddenly realized something was wrong—

Is the plot going to be too far-fetched?

I haven't seen it, how would I know the plot is so outrageous!

Besides, what does your disciplining me for the sake of my child have to do with the plot?

After a moment's thought, Akabane understood immediately.

Who knows, one of yesterday's points rewards might have gone to Kazami Hatake.

but……

This reader is so hardcore!

If you disagree with the swordsmanship and techniques described in the book, and then challenge someone to a real-life fight, you're simply not someone I can afford to mess with.

Akabane silently complained to himself.

This is still One Piece; if it were Bleach...

I wonder if this generation of swordsmen will be able to accept that weapon design.

Being an author is so hard!

He sighed slightly. He had originally planned to practice his superhuman strength, but after being inexplicably beaten up, his mood for training was gone.

I decided to turn around and go back to the comic book shop.

The more you think about something, the more depressed you become. Akabane felt that he hadn't done anything. The Three-Sword Style was just drawn like this. Sakumo and Yoru had to learn it themselves. What moves did he have?

"Yunlang, from now on, when Shuo Mao and Ye Wu come to buy comics, they can buy any Naruto comics they want, but One Piece is strictly prohibited."

Kurama Yunlang was completely bewildered and had no idea what was going on.

the most important is--

"Young Master, the two you mentioned are right here."

He pointed inside.

Then, Sakumo and Yoru peeked out from inside the comic book shop.

"Hey hey hey."

Ye Wu gave a dry laugh.

Sakumo was the most honest, and he bowed directly and apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to cause you any trouble."

"Never mind, it's nothing."

Akabane sighed.

He was just saying it in anger; there's no need to actually ban him. If those hardcore readers come knocking on his door for a "heart-to-heart talk," no one in the entire Kurama clan could handle it.

"Alright, alright, tell me what's going on."

The three of them carried small stools and sat down around each other.

Yewu thought for a moment and started talking about how she was reading a manga yesterday and it just so happened that Hatake Kazami saw this part of it. She wanted to recommend the teacher, but she was directly scolded and sent to training.

When he came to his senses during training, he found that Kazami Hatake had picked up a book and was reading it.

"The teacher scolded us the harshest and watched with the most enjoyment. Yesterday, he even hit us while watching. Can you believe it!"

Ye Wu poured out her grievances, and even reached out her hand as she spoke.

His hand was swollen, which showed how bad yesterday's training was.

Then look at Shuomao, they receive the same treatment.

"Seeing that you guys are even worse off than me makes me feel much better instantly."

Akabane's expression was relaxed.

"However, I also had a great day yesterday. My twin swords are now basically complete."

Unlike Yewu, Shuo Mao seemed very happy.

As Kazami Hatake said, opportunities to fight him are not common.

Fighting against a master often forces one to bring out their potential, and Kazami Hatake's insight is similarly able to see through Sakumo's weaknesses and shortcomings.

"Where is your sword clone technique?"

"It's still a long way off. The illusory clone has no way to control the sword clone."

Ye Wu was very upset; he was criticized the most, so he was in the worst mood.

The sword clone technique is derived from the sword shadow clone technique, so the cloned sword is also a physical entity. The clones of the Crescent Moon Dance are just ordinary clone techniques, a kind of illusory illusion, and cannot be used in conjunction with it at all.

After a moment's thought, Akabane said, "Actually, we can refer to puppetry techniques."

"Puppetry?"

Ye Wu paused for a moment.

The principle of puppetry is to manipulate puppets using chakra threads. If you consider the sword clones as puppets...

That’s not impossible!

His eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh, saying, "That's right! How come I didn't think of that!"

"As for puppetry... it's still not discreet enough, but it's deceptive enough."

Sakumo thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Using puppetry techniques, it is indeed possible to control the sword clone remotely.

Ye Wu was excited for a moment, then her face fell: "But who in our village knows puppetry?"

Puppet techniques were developed by Sunagakure. While other countries may have some knowledge of them, they are not proficient in them, and Konoha also lacks ninjas specializing in this type of technique.

Akabane's expression was strange. After hesitating for a while, he said, "There are still people who know puppetry. It just depends on whether you can put aside your pride and learn it."

"I'm willing to do anything as long as you can teach me puppetry."

Night Dance said decisively.

"Alright, I'll give you some pointers. Go to the Senju clan and find Tsunade. Tell her you want to learn puppetry."

Akabane said.

"Tsunade can do that?"

Sakumo's face showed a look of horror.

“She doesn’t know how, but there’s someone over there who does. Just tell them I told you.”

Akabane didn't directly state the result.

Given Ye Wu's personality, she wouldn't have been so resolute if she knew the other party was only a six-year-old girl.

"Okay, I'll go right now!"

Yewu ran a few steps, then ran back to get the latest Naruto and One Piece manga updates she had just bought, and then hurriedly left again.

Chapter 175 Hiding for so long, why don't you come and see?

"Put aside your pride, Senju, are you perhaps Tsunade's junior?"

After seeing him leave, Shuo Mao asked in a low voice.

"You remember the cat puppet I brought back from Sunagakure a while ago?"

Akabane said one thing and then offered no further explanation.

Shuo Mao suddenly realized.

The cat puppet was given to Akabane's adopted sister, so the one who knows puppetry is naturally his sister.

A six-year-old child is only just starting out at the ninja academy.

Asking a child like that to teach puppetry is indeed a rather embarrassing thing—especially since Night Dance is also known as a "genius of the Moonlight Clan".

Sakumo thought for a moment, then asked with some surprise, "Uzushio Village shouldn't teach this, so how did she learn puppetry?"

"I didn't learn it, I just got it right away."

Akabane's sigh was heavy, and the underlying meaning was self-evident.

Shuo Mao felt some sympathy for Ye Wu.

For a self-taught child, it would be extremely difficult to explain in a way that others could understand how they mastered puppetry.

Night Dancer needs to learn puppetry; it's not just a matter of saving face.

"The plot wasn't very interesting today, let's go back to training."

Sakumo has no interest in the battle between these "plastic sisters."

The One Piece storyline is currently in a transitional phase, nearing its end, and therefore lacks significant interest.

Sakumo got up, preparing to go back to continue training.

As he was about to leave, he thought for a moment and then explained, "Actually, Father didn't mean any harm. He probably just thought you had a talent for swordsmanship and wanted to train you. That's just the kind of person he is."

"I understand, but forget about my talent for swordsmanship."

The family knows their own affairs.

Akabane has a talent for swordsmanship, but if it came to real training, he couldn't even compare to a child from the Hatake clan. He's just a cheater and a smooth talker.

"Okay, I'm going back to cultivate."

"Keep it up. During this time, you should practice what you're good at more and stop thinking about dual-wielding."

Akabane reminded kindly.

"I understand. Today we will practice the Mirage of Mist and the Silent Assassination Technique."

After being promoted to Chunin, Akabane and Orochimaru were assigned positions, but Sakumo was the only one without one.

Once the war begins, he will most likely head to the battlefield in the Land of Whirlpools.
