Yūgao Uzuki was practically plastered against Naruto's back, instructing him move by move.
This scene.
made Hinata's eyes burn red with envy.
"That's right!"
"Why didn't I think of that move?!"
"Even if I can't teach him, Black-Framed Naruto could teach me like this~!"
Ino was somewhat annoyed.
Sakura twitched the corner of her mouth.
Why did it feel like Ino was more attentive to Black-Framed Naruto than to Sasuke?
Little did she know.
Ino enjoyed the pleasure of taking things from her special friend.
Furthermore, they had only recently gone through the Battle of Best Friends.
Plus, in the black frame world,
the Little Pink Hair wasn't even that interested in Sasuke.
Naturally, Ino wouldn't be attentive to Sasuke.
As a Face-Lover, Sasuke was indeed handsome, but not enough to make Ino swoon.
Only when someone truly "gets" her point is it real.
Obviously.
Black-Framed Naruto got Ino's point in every way.
"Ah~"
"I wish Black-Framed Naruto could teach me Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu like that too."
Tenten rested her face on her hands, her expression full of envy.
Clearly, Yūgao Uzuki seemed to be going a bit overboard.
Right from the start, she directly did what many girls wanted to do but didn't dare.
However.
["Hahaha~"]
[Inside the Sealing Space, the Great Fox was still laughing unrestrainedly.]
[Naruto's mind was filled with the Great Fox's laughter.]
[He had already adapted, but with that laugh from the Great Fox,]
[Naruto's face visibly heated up.]
[The more he reacted this way, the happier the Great Fox became.]
["I found your weakness."]
["Hmph, foolish human brat."]
["So your weakness is right here~"]
[The Great Fox shook its head, making a "tsk tsk tsk" sound.]
[You're finished, Uzumaki Naruto!]
[At once.]
[The Great Fox also proactively put down its Storybook.]
[Then it sat cross-legged on the ground.]
[Its eyes tightly shut.]
[Just like Naruto's Shadow Clone meditating inside the Sealing Space.]
[A long time later.]
[Naruto finally regained his composure.]
[Calming his mind, he experienced the Swordsmanship frame by frame.]
[It had to be said.]
[This was truly a benefit!]
[Having a talented older sister personally teaching him Swordsmanship.]
[It wasn't just physical imitation without the spiritual essence.]
This scene made many men extremely envious.
In the Pure Land World.
In a certain corner.
The sound of coughing hadn't stopped since Yūgao Uzuki appeared.
No—
Even the Six Paths Sage sensed it.
But he could only shake his head helplessly.
Then, with a wave of his hand,
seasonal snowflakes appeared in that small area.
Snowflakes drifting~
[Hoo—]
[Naruto let out a long breath.]
[He devoted himself entirely to the training.]
[His body was now completely controlled by Yūgao Uzuki.]
[In a semi-meditative state,]
[Naruto memorized all the moves and sequences in just one run-through.]
[He could immediately perform them.]
[However, the spiritual essence required significant time to polish.]
[This kind of work is delicate and requires time for accumulation.]
[However, this type of training does not deplete the body too much.]
[At most, it increases the consumption of mental energy.]
[Coincidentally~]
[Naruto's current mental energy cannot be said to be inexhaustible like his Chakra.]
[But it has definitely reached the level of a normal Sensory Ninja's mental energy.]
[Even some low-level Genjutsu cannot disrupt the Chakra within his body.]
[Swordsmanship was practically training tailor-made for him at this stage.]
[He didn't need to worry about the number of Shadow Clones at all.]
[But obviously, he couldn't display that in front of Yūgao Uzuki right now.]
[Similarly, before fully turning Yūgao Uzuki, he still had to hide his edge.]
[Thus, he practiced a few more times.]
[Naruto didn't waste the opportunity, actively trying to exert a little force and imitate Yūgao Uzuki's sword stance.]
["Stop that."]
[Yūgao Uzuki tapped Naruto's head.]
[Her pretty face was flushed with a faint blush.]
[Clearly, she herself was somewhat uncomfortable.]
[However, what she felt now was more self-doubt.]
[Feeling that Naruto still had other thoughts... this made her even more distressed.]
['Do I really have no charm at all?']
['That you can still be distracted trying to imitate my sword stance?']
['No, no, no... Naruto must just not be old enough yet.']
['Mhm! That must be it!']
[After convincing herself,]
[Yūgao Uzuki shed her previous gentleness and returned to her cold demeanor.]
["Imitation can indeed help you progress quickly."]
["However, once you get used to this feeling of gaining without effort, it will be very difficult to cultivate your own unique sword stance later on!"]
[Hearing this, Naruto looked up.]
[This action immediately caused Yūgao Uzuki's eyes to widen.]
[But upon seeing Naruto's clear, azure blue eyes, she forced herself to endure.]
["Then, Big Sister Yūgao, what if I imitate the sword stances of many people, discard the dross, take the essence, integrate it into myself, and deduce the sword stance most suitable for me?"]
[Yūgao Uzuki: "..."]
["Stop messing around."]
[Yūgao Uzuki tapped Naruto's head again.]
["It's hard enough for you to successfully imitate just one kind, let alone the situation you described?"]
["Have you memorized those basic Swordsmanship moves?"]
["Practice daily, and I will supervise you."]
["Only when I feel you are ready can you train in the Konoha-Style Swordsmanship that follows."]
["To cultivate excellent Swordsmanship, you need a persistent heart."]
["..."]
[Yūgao Uzuki spoke earnestly and at length.]
[Naruto nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking rice.]
[This attitude cheered Yūgao Uzuki up considerably.]
[Following this, she rewarded Naruto with one more hands-on demonstration.]
["Perform it once so I can see."]
[Naruto immediately agreed.]
[When there was no longer an older sister pressed against his back,]
[Naruto was noticeably uncomfortable, but he quickly adjusted.]
[Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath.]
[His mind was filled with the spiritual essence of Yūgao Uzuki's sword stance.]
[Then he slowly raised his Ninja Blade.]
[The moment he opened his eyes,]
[Naruto's gaze turned sharp.]
['What sharp eyes!']
[Yūgao Uzuki's heart quickened.]
[Whoosh whoosh whoosh—]
[Immediately after, Naruto made a slight adjustment and then ran through all the basic Swordsmanship moves she had just taught him.]
[His movements were seamless and fluid.]
[Slicing, scooping, hanging, chopping, sweeping, lifting, hacking... as if done by nature itself.]
[The sword stance changed extremely fast, sometimes soft yet firm, sometimes wide and expansive.]
[Coupled with Naruto's incredibly natural and detailed body movements,]
[Yūgao Uzuki was stunned.]
[It was as if the one dancing the blade before her was not a child who had only touched Swordsmanship for less than half an hour, but a Ninja proficient with the blade who had seen countless battles.]
[Swish swish—]
[The ringing of the blade sounded like celestial music.]
['This should be okay, right?']
['Naruto secretly breathed a sigh of relief, 'I've controlled it down to the lowest standard.']
['This routine has thirty-two moves in total, divided into four sections, with eight moves per section.']
['I made at least sixteen mistakes; even the worst talent wouldn't be worse than me.']
[However.]
[When Naruto forced out a slightly awkward smile and looked back.]
[He was finished; he had been careless!]
[Clearly, Naruto forgot the principle: master one method, master all.]
[Although he had never used a sword, he had systematically learned the usage of many Ninja Tools from Tenten.]
[At the time, it was to help Tenten calm down; simple Ninja Tool crushing, even if it didn't work against flexible opponents, would certainly be completely countered when facing a Wind Release Ninja.]
[Naruto simply had Tenten familiarize herself with and master the use of various Ninja Tools.]
[In the end, Naruto selected one type for Tenten to focus on training.]
[Spearmanship.]
[In case the widespread fire coverage of Ninja Tools failed later, she would still have a life-saving skill.]
[To teach Tenten, Naruto himself had systematically practiced Spearmanship.]
[To encourage Tenten, he even added the effect of using Chakra to strengthen his body when performing Spear Arts.]
[With the enhancement of various techniques, Tenten indeed developed great interest and became more attentive to controlling Chakra.]
[That day, looking at the large tree that Naruto had pierced with a single spear thrust, Tenten immediately had an idea.]
[Ninja Tool crushing ineffective? No problem, I still have the ability to overpower many with sheer strength! Just watch me pierce you!]
Tenten: "..."
Tenten: "Don't mention it, that feels really good~"
Hmph! Damn Wind Release woman, just watch me pierce you later!
Tsunade: "That hateful brat! Do you really think Super Strength is common?"
[Yūgao's gaze... looked like she wanted to devour him...]
[Naruto had no idea.]
[Yūgao Uzuki's mindset had completely changed at this moment.]
[Before, there might have been a tiny bit of reluctance.]
[But now, Yūgao Uzuki was ten thousand percent willing.]
[Looking at Naruto, it was like seeing a piece of peerless uncut jade.]
[If her future...]
[was a Swordsmanship Master meticulously carved out by her... Mmm~]
[Yūgao Uzuki became completely excited.]
[Her breathing grew somewhat heavy.]
[That infatuated look scared Naruto into unconsciously taking a step back.]
[Naruto even wondered if he had misjudged—was that not admiration, but rather... anger at his own perceived dullness?]
