As soon as Naruto's words fell, the expression on Sasuke's doppelganger's face couldn't help but froze, and at first he felt that Naruto was deliberately revealing his own scars by saying these words.

But he thought about it carefully, and it didn't seem to mean that way, and soon Naruto walked down the same way from the trunk of the tree again, Sasuke's clone didn't know what to think, and approached Naruto's side with two steps and asked with a straight face, "Is this tree-climbing practice the same as the way you walked on the water before?" ”

Naruto's eyes flashed, "It's pretty much the same, but walking on the water is actually much more difficult than climbing a tree." ”

Sasuke's clone nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to say with a straight face: "What's the use of practicing this?" ”

Naruto looked at him in surprise: "Your expression and your question seem very incongruous, don't worry, I'll tell you how to practice it right away, it's not a profound ninjutsu." ”

"But it's not bad, I finally learned to pretend to be stupid with different hearts."

A hint of embarrassment clearly flashed across Sasuke's doppelganger's face.

When Naruto walked up the trunk, he was eager to ask about the specific way to practice, but he was afraid that he would be looked down upon by Naruto if he was too eager.

In the end, I had to spit out a very lame sentence.

Ignoring his personal emotional problems, Naruto stretched out his finger and pointed to his feet and said, "This exercise is very simple, the trick is that you need to gather your chakra on the soles of your feet, and then let your feet attach to the trunk of the tree. ”

"Is it really that simple?"

The expression on Sasuke's doppelganger's face was full of suspicion.

Naruto chuckled, "It's that simple, but you definitely won't be as skilled as me at first, and you need to have a practice process." ”

"Now let me answer the question you just asked about the use of practicing this."

Sasuke's doppelganger's expression froze again, and he felt that Naruto didn't have to answer, because he felt that as long as he practiced successfully, he would naturally know the answer.

Naruto said to himself: "At present, your ability to condense your own chakra is a little poor, and you can't control it perfectly, which makes you overuse your energy when you cast spells, not to mention the effect, so this practice is a process that allows you to use your chakra flexibly." ”

"As a simple example, when you are able to control this ability, the number of shadow clones that can be separated will be larger, and the time for the writing wheel eye to be on will be longer."

Hearing this, the expression on Sasuke's doppelganger's face was already a little excited.

He already knew that after cultivating with the shadow clone, the experience would be fed back to the main body, and if the number increased, wouldn't the speed of his progress be faster?

The thought of Naruto's dozens of shadow clones over there in the woods made him look eager to try, but looking at Naruto beside him, he was embarrassed to act immediately.

Seeing the change in Sasuke's doppelganger's mood, Naruto spoke, "Then I won't bother you to practice." ”

After saying that, Naruto walked towards the outside of the woods, who knew that just after taking two steps, Sasuke's clone suddenly said something.

"Please help me call another doppelganger over, I want him to go to the Nanhechuan River to practice walking on the water later."

Naruto turned around, looked at him meaningfully, and said, "It seems that you are very confident, but I would like to remind you that walking on the water and climbing trees have slightly different skills. ”

"As you can see, the trunk is fixed, and climbing the tree is to concentrate the chakra to a specific location, so the process is just to maintain a specific chakra adsorption"

"But walking on the water to levitate yourself is a little more complicated, and when you practice, you need to continue to release the right amount of chakra from your feet to the surface of the water, and the control of the amount is very important, because the water surface on the river is flowing, and you need to pay attention to changing the amount of chakra released under your feet at any time."

Sasuke's clone frowned, so it was impossible to practice walking on the water at the same time, and it was not bad for so many clones to practice climbing trees.

But why was Naruto's expression weird?

He was sure that Naruto's foolish look had reappeared, could there be something wrong with him? But I haven't even started practicing.

What went wrong?

Sasuke's clone couldn't figure it out, Naruto was already far away, and he didn't have a chance to ask if he wanted to understand.

It didn't take long for him to see another doppelganger appear in his field of vision.....

~~~~~~~~~~

At the ninja school, Shikamaru yawned after class and slowly approached Naruto in the corner, but he didn't know that it was just a doppelganger of Naruto.

"Naruto, did Hokage-sama approve of your application for early graduation?"

"Nope." Naruto said in a calm tone, "Hokage-sama told me that it is currently a time of peace and that there is no need to apply for graduation, and he said that there is no suitable candidate for the upper ninja to guide me at the moment, because the graduates of the previous class have already completed their respective classes, and I can't insert them." ”

"Didn't you already know the outcome?"

Shikamaru leaned against the wall with his hands crossed behind his head, and said with a somewhat helpless expression: "Although my father and I went to the Hokage's office that day, Hokage-sama only asked me about your recent situation, and then ignored me, and my father didn't know the result. ”

"To be honest, I'm really afraid that Hokage-sama will agree to your graduation application."

Naruto's eyes froze, "What are you afraid of?" ”

Shikamaru's expression immediately became serious: "Because after I went home with my father, I analyzed it, in case you pass the application for graduation, there is a high probability that Hokage-sama will ask me to apply for graduation by myself." ”

Naruto looked strange and said, "What's wrong with graduating early?" Don't you think school is boring? Besides, even if you graduate early, you won't necessarily be in the same class as me. ”

"Alas~" Shikamaru shook his head and said, "It's not certain, my father asked me to sort out your situation report for the past two days last night, and now I should submit it to the Hokage's office, after all, you know that Hokage-sama has arranged a long-term task for me very early." ”

"School is boring, but at least it's not a hassle! But after graduation, it's completely different, and when the time comes, I have to follow Shinobi around on missions, and that kind of troublesome life is not what I want. ”

Naruto smiled slightly, "You're really an honest friend. ”

~~~~~~~~~~

Soon it was time for school to end at noon.

On this side of the grove, Naruto, who was fighting fiercely with the three generations of Hokage in the mirror world, received a reminder from the Nine Lamas.

Da-da-da-da!

As soon as he came back to his senses, he heard the sound of kunai shooting out of the crossbow, and then he saw Sasuke, who had resisted the attack in front of his chest with his armor, squatting on the stone platform, and there were only two clones left on the shooting range to connect the shuriken throwing skills.

"Damn!"

Sasuke jumped off the stone platform in annoyance, ready to go up again.

Using his senses, Naruto discovered that Sasuke had transferred all the other five clones to the depths of the woods to practice tree climbing.

After understanding the situation, Naruto felt that it was time for Sasuke to recognize a certain fact.

Bang bang bang!

He disarmed his shadow clone.

Sasuke, who was loading the kunai, looked at him with some confusion, he didn't know why Naruto wanted to disarm the shadow clone.

"Aren't you going to eat, the shadow clone at school can't consume any chakra because of the class, but the shadow clone chakra on your side has insisted on it until now, which is the limit."

Sasuke reacted at this time, and he immediately disarmed the shadow clone without thinking about it, and then he immediately covered his head, and then fell straight to the ground in front of him.

Naruto re-imprinted and separated into a clone to stay, and then the main body was sealed again, and he used the transformation technique to turn around and start leaving.

Half an hour later, Sasuke woke up in a daze, and after a long time he covered his head and staggered to his feet.

"My head hurts!"

Naruto's clone who stayed on the side slowly spoke, "Now you should know how many bowls of rice you can eat in one meal. ”
