Now that Kai is out on a mission, entrusting his disciple to his friend, it makes perfect sense logically.
"Okay." Kakashi was deep in thought, but quickly nodded, not refusing Guy's request.
He couldn't be happier that Kai did that.
"Alright, I'll go back and get ready then. Naruto is in your hands now," Guy said with a smile.
He turned around, patted Naruto's head, and said, "Naruto, you should follow Kakashi's instructions to learn ninjutsu. Of course, you must not neglect physical training."
“I understand, Guy-sensei, I’ll wait for you to come back,” Naruto said solemnly, nodding.
Guy left quickly, and Kakashi turned his attention to Naruto. Unlike protecting Naruto from the shadows, he could now openly interact with Naruto.
"Come in first," Kakashi said, stepping aside. Naruto thanked him and went inside.
Kakashi slammed the door shut.
He sat lazily on the sofa in the room, looking at the somewhat restrained Naruto, and a slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips hidden under the mask. He really looked like his master.
“Relax. You are Guy’s disciple, and I am Guy’s friend. Since he said so, I will teach you well,” Kakashi said.
"Thank you, Kakashi-senpai!" Naruto said gratefully immediately.
Kakashi's eyes seemed to curve slightly. At this moment, a ripple stirred in his previously lifeless heart, and a feeling called inheritance appeared within his parched emotions.
"Alright, how much do you know about ninjutsu?" Kakashi asked.
"Ninjutsu? I don't know much about it. I've been training with Guy-sensei all along," Naruto replied honestly, scratching his head.
Kakashi naturally knew what Naruto had been doing with Guy, but he didn't expect Guy to not have told Naruto anything about it.
But thinking about it, he realized that he wasn't proficient in ninjutsu. Even if he told Naruto, he wouldn't have the ability to teach Naruto ninjutsu. As for the basic knowledge, Naruto would naturally learn it when he went to the Ninja Academy.
However, since he is now teaching Naruto ninjutsu, it's not like he doesn't need to wait until he goes to the Ninja Academy.
“Then I’ll start with the basics. Only by understanding these things can you have a general understanding of ninjutsu,” Kakashi said.
"Thank you very much, Kakashi-senpai." Naruto put on a serious listening expression.
"Before you can understand ninjutsu, you must first understand chakra." Kakashi adopted a slightly more serious posture.
"The human body has 130 trillion cells. The body's energy in chakra is extracted one by one from these 130 trillion cells. The 'body energy' and 'spiritual energy' in the body are perfectly combined. We ninjas use the chakra extraction method to extract chakra."
"Chakra is the basic energy of a ninja. It is not only related to the release of ninjutsu and genjutsu, but also to taijutsu. Using chakra will greatly enhance its power. Furthermore, it can form nintaijutsu, which is a combination of ninjutsu and taijutsu. Its power is much stronger than ordinary taijutsu."
“Guy-sensei should also have chakra, but why does he say he’s not proficient in ninjutsu?” Naruto couldn’t help but raise his hand to speak.
"Yes, of course Guy has chakra to become a Jonin. As I just said, chakra is a kind of energy produced by the perfect fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy. Guy's body is strong and he has no shortage of physical energy. It's just that his elemental attributes are too weak, so the power of his ninjutsu is not as good as his taijutsu." Kakashi explained.
"The Five Elements?" Naruto frowned slightly.
"That's what I'm going to talk about next," Kakashi said, looking at Naruto.
Naruto immediately stopped talking and sat up straight.
“A typical ninja can possess about five attributes: wind, fire, lightning, earth, and water,” Kakashi said, holding up his fingers and counting them one by one.
"Ordinary?" Naruto keenly grasped Kakashi's key word and couldn't help but ask again.
Kakashi showed no anger; he was his master's son, so who else would spoil him?
"Ah, besides the five elements, there are also yin and yang attributes. These two attributes are also something that everyone is born with. Yang represents the body, and yin represents the spirit. However, mastering these two attributes is much more difficult than mastering the five elements."
“Unless it’s a family-inherited ninjutsu, most people won’t come into contact with Yin-Yang attribute ninjutsu. You don’t need to know much about it for now,” Kakashi explained in detail.
"Understood." Naruto nodded.
Chapter 10: Explosive Power!
“Most ninjas are born with only one elemental attribute. If they are talented, they may have two or more. For example, the Third Hokage had five attributes,” Kakashi explained.
"The Third Hokage is truly amazing!" Naruto exclaimed in admiration, then looked at Kakashi and asked, "Kakashi-senpai, I heard from Guy-sensei that you know over a thousand ninjutsu. I wonder how many elemental attributes you possess?"
"Me..." Kakashi said in his usual lazy tone, seemingly unconcerned, "I also have five types."
"Wow, Kakashi-senpai is amazing!" Naruto exclaimed, his eyes practically sparkling with admiration as he looked at Kakashi.
"Well, let's keep it low-key." Kakashi waved his hand, but the smile in his eyes showed that he was in a very good mood.
"I was born with only four elements: earth, lightning, fire, and wind. I acquired the water attribute through training later," Kakashi said.
"Are attributes acquired through training?" Naruto asked curiously.
“Of course, in reality, every Jonin will cultivate one or two different attributes on their own, since having only one attribute makes them too vulnerable to being targeted,” Kakashi said.
"Can attributes still be targeted?" Naruto kept asking questions like a curious child.
This was the first time he had learned about ninjas, and he was indeed very curious.
This is something he'll learn from teachers when he goes to the Ninja Academy, but Kakashi doesn't mind telling Naruto about it now.
Naruto, in principle, should have been personally taught by him, Obito, and Rin!
This was something Naruto had already decided in his heart even before he was born.
But now Obito and Rin are both gone!
However, there were some twists and turns later on, but now things have been set right.
"This is about the principle of mutual generation and restraint of the five elements." Kakashi paused for a moment and continued, "The so-called mutual restraint of the five elements is that water restrains fire, fire restrains wind, wind restrains thunder, thunder restrains earth, and earth restrains water. The mutual generation of the five elements is that wind generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates thunder, thunder generates water, and water generates wind."
"Ninjutsu with opposing attributes naturally have the advantage of the one that counters the other. If you only have a single attribute, you are easily targeted and attacked, which would be a big disadvantage."
"Attribute synergy allows two ninjutsu techniques to form a composite ninjutsu, which multiplies the power of the ninjutsu. You will learn about this later."
"What attribute will I be?" Naruto asked, scratching his head.
“Well said, but before you give me the test attributes, you need to learn how to refine chakra first,” Kakashi nodded and said.
“You’ve been training your body with Kai all this time, so your physical energy is definitely not bad, your willpower is also very strong, and your mental energy is also not bad, so there’s no problem with refining chakra now.”
"I will now teach you the chakra refining method. You can try refining chakra now."
Kakashi then taught Naruto the chakra extraction method.
This chakra extraction method isn't a secret; anyone who attends the ninja academy, or even a family with a ninja member, could find out about it.
However, obviously no one would tell Naruto such a thing. If he hadn't met Guy and Kakashi, he would have had to wait until he entered the Ninja Academy to refine his chakra.
After listening to Kakashi's explanation of the chakra refining method, Naruto made sure he remembered it. Then, he sat cross-legged on the open ground, intending to start refining chakra right away.
Compared to the daily extreme training, Naruto was quite excited about the chakra that only ninjas possessed.
If he can extract chakra, it means he's a ninja too.
“Refining chakra depends on talent. Some people have poor talent and find it difficult to refine chakra, while others have good talent and find it easy to refine chakra. Naruto, why don’t you give it a try?” Kakashi said.
"Yes, Kakashi-senpai." Naruto nodded obediently, closed his eyes, and began to refine his chakra.
"Naruto has his teacher's bloodline, so his chakra should be easy to refine."
As soon as Naruto closed his eyes, preparing to use the Chakra Refining Method, he began to combine his physical and mental energy. His physical and mental energy were like a thirsty strong man meeting a widow, dry wood meeting a raging fire, quickly burning into a great fire.
Naruto opened his eyes, his gaze filled with terror: "No, no, it's full, it's full, stop, no!!!"
Kakashi's eyes snapped open, a look of tension in them. He flashed to Naruto's side, pulling back the headband covering his eyes to reveal his Sharingan and staring at Naruto: "What's going on, Naruto?"
"Ah..." Naruto exclaimed, unable to control the energy fluctuations within his body any longer.
"Boom, hiss hiss hiss..." Azure chakra emanated from his body, flickering like flames.
It blew his golden hair upside down.
Kakashi's single eye nearly bulged out as he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "What?! What incredible chakra!"
Chakra is supposed to be colorless, but Naruto's exposed chakra was so much that it formed blue flames. When Naruto saw this, he was so envious and jealous that he almost shed tears of envy.
"Even when Master and Mistress first refined their chakra, they couldn't have achieved this level of chakra," Kakashi muttered to himself.
He didn't compare himself to Naruto; the Uzumaki clan and the Hatake clan were incomparable.
One is known for having a lot of chakra, and the other is known for having little chakra.
Otherwise, his father wouldn't have chosen swordsmanship as his main attack method. Who wouldn't want to use ninjutsu to bombard the enemy? There wasn't enough chakra!
"However, Naruto has been undergoing extreme training with Guy for almost a year, constantly pushing his physical and mental limits. He has already surpassed ordinary people, no, even some ninjas are not as good as Naruto. It is only natural that this situation has occurred."
That's just ridiculous! That's the only explanation I can offer.
"It seems Naruto is also very talented in ninjutsu. He has indeed inherited his teacher's talent."
After his chakra leaked out uncontrollably, Naruto stopped being terrified and instead remained in that state, looking at his body with a look of surprise.
Kakashi's eye twitched slightly as he watched Naruto maintain his 'burst' state. Just how surging must Naruto's chakra be to allow it to leak out like this?
"Naruto, how are you feeling right now?" Kakashi asked quickly.
"How does it feel? It feels better than ever before. I feel like my hands and feet are full of power." Naruto couldn't help but throw two punches, his fists, infused with chakra, even creating a gust of wind.
"Alright, alright, let's stop the refining technique now. There's no need to refine chakra anymore," Kakashi said, pulling down his headband.
"Okay, okay." Naruto nodded, and the explosive aura around him slowly disappeared.
"Phew." Kakashi let out a long sigh of relief, looking at Naruto's chakra reserves with envy.
The chakra Naruto had just possessed probably already surpassed mine. If he grows for a few more years, I wonder how terrifying his chakra will become.
Chapter 11 One year later
"Alright, now that you have chakra, let's test your chakra attributes." Kakashi handed Naruto a chakra test strip.
"This is a chakra test strip made from trees specially cultivated for chakra. It is extremely sensitive to chakra and can easily test a ninja's chakra attribute."
"Fire attribute: The test strip will catch fire; Wind attribute: The test strip will split in the middle; Lightning attribute: The test strip will wrinkle; Water attribute: The test strip will get wet; Earth attribute: The test strip will crumble. Try it."
“Okay.” Naruto took the test strip and injected chakra into it.
The chakra test strip was instantly cut in half.
"It seems you only have wind-style chakra," Kakashi said.
"Ah." Naruto's face immediately fell. "I only have one attribute. I thought I would have four or five attributes like Kakashi-senpai."
"Don't worry, even if you only have one attribute now, you can cultivate other attributes in the future," Kakashi said, patting Naruto's head to comfort him.
"Yosh, let's set a small goal: I'll definitely train to have all five elemental attributes someday," Naruto said, clenching his fist.
He didn't want to have any weaknesses that would make him a target in the future.
Kakashi remained silent. He didn't mention that cultivating other attributes would require a tremendous amount of effort and time. If it were so easy to cultivate other attributes, then everyone in the ninja world would be a five-attribute ninja.
"You still need to do extreme training, let's stop here for today," Kakashi said, glancing at the time.
"Ah, that's true." Naruto scratched his head and said. He had promised Guy that even if he left to go on a mission, his extreme training would not be interrupted.
"Remember, you already possess chakra, but you cannot use it to assist your training in taijutsu," Kakashi cautioned. He didn't want his guidance to cause any problems with the plan that Guy had devised for Naruto.
That's the best plan for Naruto.
"I understand!" Naruto nodded. He had absolutely no intention of cheating or shirking his duty. He dreamed of one day being able to physically traverse the universe and conquer it.
"Go on, and when you come back to me tomorrow, I'll give you a surprise," Kakashi said, squinting his eyes.
"What is it? Kakashi-senpai?" Naruto asked with surprise in his eyes.
"Well, I already said it was a surprise, let's come again tomorrow," Kakashi said, patting the little golden retriever's head.
It's great to be able to interact with Naruto so openly and honestly.
Kai, you've done a good deed!
After finishing his extreme training for the day, Naruto planned to go to Ichiraku Ramen for ramen.
However, a small incident occurred in the middle. Yesterday, I helped that cute little girl drive away those three children, and today I came specifically to intercept him.
They even brought someone wearing a Konoha headband to cause trouble.
"This is my brother, Xiao Ganglang. You bastard, let my brother teach you a lesson this time!"
Naruto stared at them expressionlessly.
After the four legs appeared, he put his hands in his pockets and left.
Four children were left behind, crying from being kicked.
