Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 199 Naruto's Wind Style
"Let's put it this way, the premise for [Shino is willing to help you] is [that you are someone worthy of his help], right?"

"...Yes." Yusuke was puzzled. Isn't this natural?

Naruto continued to explain: "When a person helps another person, there will be another voice in his heart asking himself why he is helping him."

"In order to keep his thoughts and actions consistent, he will try hard to find reasons why the other person deserves help. Once this impression is formed, the chances of helping next time will naturally increase."

Keeping your mind and behavior aligned is essentially about preventing cognitive dissonance.

Yusuke suddenly realized: "I see, you are worthy of being the chief consultant!"

Naruto smiled but said nothing. The reason why he was so attentive in giving Yusuke advice was mainly because he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to cultivate a group of young fans.

Konohamaru is one, and Yusuke also has the potential to be the next.

In addition, although this matter is to expand his own power, in essence they are all under the management of Baiyi, so he cannot get involved personally and can only leave it to others.

……

The time comes at night.

Naruto found Kakashi, invited him to Ichiraku Ramen, and treated him to noodles.

"It's rare for a busy man like you to think of me..." Kakashi took out a pair of chopsticks and sharpened them. "So, what do you want from me this time?"

"Can't I treat my boss to a good meal?" Naruto ordered a few large bowls of noodles and changed the subject.

"However, there is something I would like to ask for your help, teacher."

Kakashi hummed. He didn't mind helping his subordinate. Rather, he hadn't felt the sense of accomplishment of teaching for a long time.

What a pity! I haven’t even taught them how to practice treading water.
Too strong, but not so cute...

Kakashi was lost in his memories when he heard Naruto suddenly say, "I want to ask the teacher to help me find someone."

"Who?"

"I don't know his real name either. I only know that his ability can change the terrain, and that he was active in the Anbu in the past."

Kakashi stared straight ahead with his dead fish eyes. This description was quite detailed and specific, but he couldn't remember who it was at once.

Suddenly, Kakashi discovered a brilliant point: "Why did you come to me specifically? I remember that you are very familiar with the Anbu people now."

Naruto chuckled, "Because I heard that this person is your junior and has a very good relationship with you."

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, and then a name popped into his mind: "Ah... there is such a person... Well, what do you want from him?"

"I'm going to practice a new technique recently and I need a master who can change the terrain."

In fact, this is not a necessity for Naruto's training, but Yamato is also an important character in the original work, and Naruto does not intend to miss him. It is best to establish connections as soon as possible to prevent plot loopholes in the future.

"I see...So what new technique are you planning to practice?"

Naruto was about to respond when he heard two more footsteps outside the store.

Kakashi turned around, his expression slightly surprised: "Asuma, Shikamaru?"

Naruto turned around and looked at Shikamaru with the same strange eyes. Is he so efficient?
Shikamaru waved at Naruto: "Hey, I didn't find you at your house, so I thought I'd try my luck here, but I didn't expect to run into you."

Shikamaru: "Boss, two big bowls of tonkotsu ramen!"

Naruto understood and shouted to the uncle in the inner room: "Uncle, I'll treat them both!"

"okay!"

Asuma heard it and looked at Naruto: "Interesting guy..."

The four words "Uzumaki Naruto" are now well-known to Asuma. They are still mentioned repeatedly among the senior ninjas and members of the Sarutobi clan.

And now, seeing him so sophisticated yet unassuming, Asuma suddenly had a sense of "being with a little adult".

He sat down next to Naruto and was about to take out a cigarette, but considering the small space in the noodle shop, he put the cigarette back.

"The noodles are here~"

The sound of slurping noodles could be heard from the noodle shop. During the meal, Asuma said, "By the way, Naruto, I heard you have a question for me?"

"Hmm," Naruto picked up the bowl and drank the soup, then wiped his mouth and said, "I want to add the wind-style chakra changes to the Rasengan, but I'm a little lost, so I want to ask Asuma, who is also a wind-style master, for advice."

Kakashi was puzzled: "Naruto, you already know the nature of your chakra?"

"Well, the current test shows that my chakra is wind jutsu."

In fact, except for Yintun Chakra, Naruto has chakras of other attributes, but because the speed and accuracy of the hand seals in the original work are too poor, Naruto has only used Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall in Boruto.

But in this time and space, Naruto's chakra precision has greatly improved, and he suspects that his hand seal score is now at least 5 out of 10. This means that Naruto can try to practice other escape techniques after Senjutsu Rasenshuriken.

"Same as me?" Asuma looked at Naruto with interest and said generously, "Then you have found the right person. I have gained some experience in using wind chakra over the years."

With a flash of wisdom, he resisted the urge to light one immediately and said to Naruto:

"Generally speaking, there are two ways to use wind escape: one is to use the characteristics of gas pressure to achieve a cutting effect; the other is to increase the wind pressure to blow the enemy away."

"Can you understand, Naruto?"

Naruto smiled and said, "I see. For example, Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique is the latter effect, and Asuma-sensei's use of special ninja tools to cause cutting damage to the enemy is the first."

There was a moment of silence, and only Ayame's voice could be heard from the inner room: "Naruto-kun knows so much."

Asuma scratched his eyebrows and laughed: "Well, that's true. It seems that your theory is very solid, Naruto."

"But theory and practice are two different things. How about this, after everyone finishes their meal, you can show me how well you do it so I can see how good your foundation is."

"Okay," Naruto agreed readily, then looked at Shikamaru again, a plan coming to mind: "Why don't we call Shikamaru along too, so we can practice sparring together... I've recently gained some experience with Wind Style, and I need Asuma-sensei's guidance."

The three people except Naruto were stunned at the same time, with different expressions.

Shikamaru had the strangest expression. If Naruto hadn't just asked him to do something, he would have suspected that Naruto was looking for an excuse to beat him up.

Naruto's idea is very simple. He wants to have more contact with Shikamaru during this period and enhance their friendship as soon as possible.

"...It's not impossible, Shikamaru. You can come with me later and I'll check the results of your training."

As soon as Asuma spoke, Shikamaru had no choice but to scratch his head, subconsciously complained "What a hassle", and then obeyed obediently.

About half an hour after the meal.

Kakashi said goodbye to the three of them. They came to the training grounds, Shikamaru and Naruto stood opposite each other, the former slightly nervous, while the latter smiled.

Shikamaru had experienced Naruto's strength a long time ago. During the Chunin Exam, he was able to beat the enemy unilaterally with only Shadow Clone Technique and Shuriken Technique, which left a deep impression on him.

I don't think he's really going to teach him a lesson, right? Shikamaru couldn't help but frown and stared at Naruto intently.

There was a gentle breeze, and the cool wind blew on the grass and the faces of the two, making Naruto feel a little lazy.

I haven't fought with my peers in a long time.

"When you two fight, be more restrained and stop when it's enough." Asma was in the middle. After telling the two of them about the precautions, he lit a cigarette.

"Well, Naruto, let me see what you have learned; Shikamaru, attack with all your strength!"

"Yes, yes..." Shikamaru responded lazily on the surface, but in fact his whole body was tense and his hands quickly formed seals.

In just a moment, the shadow under his body began to move, quickly transforming into tentacles, reaching into Shikamaru's ninja tool pocket, and taking out a handful of kunai.

Shadow Tentacles: Able to condense physical shadows into tentacles for use.

The next moment, the tentacles threw the kunai towards Naruto, and the throwing speed boosted by the tentacles was extremely fast!

Naruto slowly condensed chakra in the palm of his hand and consciously injected wind jutsu. In an instant, the chakra cyclone in the palm of his palm began to emit a hint of sharpness.

The Rasengan takes the change of chakra's form to the extreme, while the infusion of wind jutsu takes the change of its nature to the extreme.

Now, Naruto weakened the chakra's form change, weakening the original ball to the level of a cyclone, and added property changes to make it look like a small tornado.

If the power is increased tenfold, wouldn't it be enough to make a tornado destroy a parking lot... Naruto muttered to himself and stretched out his hand!
"Whizzing!"

When the kunai was about to pierce Naruto's body, the cyclone in the palm of his hand suddenly exploded with a loud "boom!"
The strong wind scratched against Naruto's clothes, making a rustling sound. At the same time, his hair blew back wildly, revealing his hairline.

"Swoosh--" The kunai was blown away by the air wave and its flight trajectory broke, and it pierced into the mud on both sides of Naruto's body.

A closer look revealed faint scratches on all of these kunai.

Asuma's pupils shrank as he caught this detail.

This so-called change in the nature of wind escape does not simply increase the wind pressure, but also includes cutting, like injecting fine needles into the cyclone.

At this time, Naruto shouted at Shikamaru in front of him: "Not enough! Just use your shadow to attack me!"

Shikamaru looked at Asuma, who nodded, so Shikamaru adjusted again, and the shape of the shadow suddenly became sharp, with countless long and thin spikes forking out, and rushed towards Naruto!

Shadow Seam: Transforms shadows into sharp threads that can directly penetrate ordinary mammals.

Naruto clenched his right fist and gathered chakra in his fist. At the same time, he added wind jutsu to change the nature of the chakra.

This time, he wanted to use the edge of his fist as a weapon to break Shikamaru's piercing attack.

Naruto's right arm seemed to be wearing Thanos' glove, emitting strong chakra fluctuations, and smashed towards Shikamaru's shadow!
