Kitazawa paused for a moment, then said, "But you didn't have any special training during the summer vacation, so you need to strengthen your skills."
Nara Shikamaru's eyes widened like saucers upon hearing this.
Sculpting with shadows is already hard enough, why make it even harder?
Is this the price of having too much fun during summer vacation?
"Ino, you will train with Shikamaru."
Kitazawa said with a smile, "Your task is simple: keep interfering with him."
"???"
Nara Shikamaru looked completely bewildered.
Isn't Yamanaka Ino's interference simply the use of the Mind Transfer Technique?
In other words, he has to multitask.
While controlling Yin Release chakra to carve shadows, he also had to compete with Yamanaka Ino for consciousness.
"This training method is good."
Ino Yamanaka blinked and said, "Shikamaru, I won't hold back."
Nara Shikamaru hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"what about me?"
Sakura Haruno asked with a puzzled look.
She used to train with Yamanaka Ino, but now she's all alone.
"I will teach you a new medical ninjutsu."
Kitazawa replied.
He is teaching according to the students' individual needs.
Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka both underwent intensive training throughout the summer.
However, the former has a higher talent for medical ninjutsu.
It's not that Yamanaka Ino lacks talent, but rather that the secret techniques are quite difficult to learn.
There are quite a few C-rank and D-rank medical ninjutsu that Sakura Haruno can learn.
"Finally, I can learn new medical ninjutsu!"
Sakura Haruno's eyes lit up, and her face was full of smiles.
Yamanaka Ino was somewhat envious, but there was nothing she could do, as they learned different ninjutsu.
"I'll have my shadow clone teach you."
Kitazawa formed hand seals and created a shadow clone.
"Okay, Kitazawa-sensei."
Sakura Haruno didn't care whether she was taught the real body or the shadow clone; it was all the same.
"Begin training."
After Kitazawa finished speaking, he looked at Hinata Hyuga and said, "Your training today is to spar with me."
No matter how much you practice Soft Fist and Bagua Sixty-Four Palms in one morning, you won't make much progress.
The best way to cram at the last minute is through real-world practice.
"Ah."
Hinata Hyuga nodded obediently.
Whatever Kitazawa says goes.
"Let's go over there."
Kitazawa led Hinata Hyuga to a secluded, deserted corner.
The battle begins.
Hinata Hyuga activated her Byakugan, kicked off with her foot, and her body shot out like a white streak of light.
She raised her hands and directly used the Soft Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms.
The tiny hands patted Kitazawa one after the other.
Kitazawa's response was simple: he also clapped his hands out twice.
The four palms clapped together in pairs.
The chakra surging from the palms also collided.
In an instant, an invisible wave of air surged.
Hinata Hyuga was momentarily dazed.
It was as if he was sparring not with Kitazawa, but with Hyuga Hiashi.
the reason is simple.
There aren't many ninjutsu that release chakra from the palm; the most typical example is Gentle Fist.
How can someone who isn't from the Hyuga clan learn Gentle Fist?
Hinata Hyuga remembered Kitazawa's usual guidance and understood.
With a taut face, she didn't hesitate and continued to strike.
But as she expected, none of her strikes were effective.
After delivering ten blows, Hinata Hyuga was about to continue when she suddenly trembled and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
When did this happen?
Hinata Hyuga felt that the flow of chakra within her body had completely stopped.
Kitazawa stepped forward, grabbed her hand, and rolled up her sleeve.
Four red dots appeared on Hinata Hyuga's originally fair arm.
These four red dots were created by Kitazawa, and they represent chakra points.
"Kitazawa-sensei, you..."
Hinata opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
"Do you want to ask me why I know Gentle Fist?"
Kitazawa pressed two fingers together on her chakra points and said with a smile, "I learned it from you."
"Eh?"
Hinata Hyuga's eyes widened.
But the reflow of chakra proved Kitazawa's words to be true.
Only ninjas who have mastered Gentle Fist can understand pressure point techniques.
"Don't tell anyone about this."
Kitazawa released her arm and joked, "If your father finds out, I might be dead."
"I won't!"
Upon hearing this, Hinata Hyuga quickly assured her, "Even if I die, I will not tell a second person, not even Father!"
"It's not that serious."
Kitazawa patted her head and said with a smile, "Let's continue training."
Given his current relationship with Tsunade, learning Gentle Fist wouldn't be a capital offense.
After all, it's not like I'm getting a pair of white eyes transplanted.
But the less trouble he causes, the better; he's not strong enough yet.
After Kitazawa reminded Hinata, given her personality, she definitely wouldn't say anything carelessly.
It was noon.
"Hinata, go home now, take a shower and rest. Then come back to school this afternoon for the practical training class."
Kitazawa looked at Hinata Hyuga, who was covered in sweat, and said.
Although he didn't use his full strength, the power he used was still greater than that of Hyuga Neji.
Hinata Hyuga's ability to last all morning is already quite remarkable.
She has to spar with Hyuga Neji in the afternoon, so it's not suitable to arrange any more combat training to avoid her not having the energy to spar with him.
"Thank you... thank you, Kitazawa-sensei."
Hinata Hyuga wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand and said breathlessly.
Her bangs were completely soaked with sweat and stuck together.
"I'll take you back."
Kitazawa nodded slightly and said.
"No... no need."
Hinata Hyuga subconsciously didn't want to trouble Kitazawa.
"It's nothing, I was just going that way."
Kitazawa explained, "I just happened to be going to Konoha Hospital."
His shadow clones were enough to help Sasuke Uchiha and Shikamaru Nara with their special training.
He only has one practical class in the afternoon, so he can't waste the rest of the time.
Hinata Hyuga did not refuse after hearing this.
Kitazawa escorted her all the way to the Hyuga clan's residence before turning and leaving.
Hinata Hyuga stood at the doorway, watching his figure gradually disappear before turning her gaze away.
"Why are you back so early today?"
Hiashi Hyuga sat on a stone chair in the courtyard, holding Hanabi Hyuga in his arms.
"elder sister!"
Hinata Hanabi immediately shouted.
"I just finished my special training with Mr. Kitazawa."
Hinata Hyuga replied, "He told me to go home and rest, and that I only need to attend the practical training class in the afternoon."
"Why is there still special training after school starts?"
Hiashi Hyuga frowned slightly and asked.
For various reasons, he was not satisfied with Kitazawa.
"It's because I'm going to have a sparring session with Neji-nii during the practical training class."
Hinata Hyuga hesitated for two seconds, then spoke truthfully.
"Oh?"
Hiashi Hyuga suddenly became interested.
From childhood to adulthood, Hyuga Neji surpassed Hyuga Hinata in both talent and strength.
To prevent Hinata from losing confidence, Hiashi Hyuga even stopped having Neji Hyuga as her sparring partner.
But... it's hard to say right now.
Hinata Hyuga has made tremendous progress.
"Go and rest."
Hiashi Hyuga waved his hand and said.
He had already planned to sneak away to the ninja academy to watch the battles during the practical training session.
