Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Chapter 46 The Limits of a Ninja
There are limits to being a ninja.

This is a truth that Hui Li understood long ago.

But as Iruka continued to explain, her understanding of the limits of ninjas deepened.

Insufficient chakra is a problem that every ninja will encounter.

Ninjas train in taijutsu, genjutsu, and ninjutsu, all based on the use of chakra, but they lack the most fundamental element.

That is, how does chakra increase?

Iruka gave his final explanation of the chakra issue: chakra is almost impossible to increase artificially.

Chakra originates from the energy absorbed by the chakra nucleus and then fed back to it.

The human body's physical and mental energy essentially originates from the ninja's vitality. Everyone is born with their own vitality, which cannot be changed.

But... if things are really as Iruka described.

How can it be that the more you eat, the stronger your body becomes and the more abundant your chakra becomes?

The doubts in Hui Li's mind had just begun to surface.

Some people have already raised questions.

"Teacher, why is it that the stronger our bodies are, the more chakra we have?" Sakura Haruno, the best student, was the first to raise her hand and ask a question.

Iruka nodded in satisfaction and waved for Sakura Haruno to sit down.

"Sakura's question is excellent, and it's also a core topic I'm going to discuss next."

It originated from the Third Hokage, who was revered as the 'Professor of Ninjutsu,' and it debunked one of the biggest misconceptions in the history of the ninja world over the past thousand years.

It's not that the stronger your physical condition, the more chakra you generate. Rather, only when you have more chakra and a stronger life force can your body have the opportunity to become stronger!
Many people say, "Then we can eat more food and have more chakra, right?"

This is totally wrong.

Food reaches the stomach and intestines for digestion and absorption; only after absorption and conversion into energy can it be properly absorbed and converted into energy. Only with strong vitality and vigorous bodily functions can you absorb and convert energy; otherwise, you'll just overeat and die.

Only with more chakra can one have the chance to become stronger?
Hui Li's spirits lifted.

Iruka's teachings once again disrupted her understanding.

Wouldn't that mean everyone's potential for growth is locked from the very beginning?

Without a large amount of life force, all cultivation will eventually be constrained by the amount of chakra, and will eventually decline when the life force is exhausted.

Think of this.

Hui Li suddenly turned her head to look at Naruto beside her.

He was slumped over the table, impatiently copying the blackboard notes into his notebook.

Within his body, the chakra light, as brilliant as the sun, almost solidified into liquid.

The terrifying vitality of the Uzumaki clan, the Yang Nine-Tails with its seemingly limitless chakra, and the Yang attribute Asura chakra representing life.

It turns out that some people are positioned above everyone else from the very beginning.

So what's wrong with me?

With her eyes closed, Hui Li felt the surging chakra within her body. After absorbing the flesh of the Three-Tails, the chakra in her body doubled.

Could it be that the tailed beast chakra has enhanced my vitality?
Hui Li felt that things were not that simple.

The lack of crucial information made it difficult for her to make a judgment, and she could only try to find out more later.

Choosing the Konoha Ninja Academy was definitely the right decision!

Iruka, that guy, actually has some skills.

As expected, none of the characters who had a significant role in the original work were mediocre.

Looking at Iruka speaking eloquently on the podium, Hui Li's eyes no longer held any contempt.

"Due to the limited amount of chakra, ninjas divide themselves into three types in order to make the most of their chakra: ninjutsu type, taijutsu type, and genjutsu type."

Taijutsu-type ninjas train their bodies and use chakra as an energy source to fuel their growth. They have the least amount of chakra in their bodies, but because taijutsu itself consumes very little energy, they are better at prolonged combat.

Ninjutsu-type ninjas avoid overtraining, storing more energy in their bodies to unleash ninjutsu, and excel at short bursts of power and decisive attacks.

Illusionist ninjas are the rarest type.

Using chakra as an energy source to aid in the growth of spiritual power, it is both more mysterious and more dangerous.

The three types of ninjas are essentially compromises made due to insufficient chakra reserves for full development.

ding ding ding...

Just as Iruka finished his lesson, the school bell rang outside.

Before he could even utter the words "get out of class dismissed," the students, who had long been unable to endure his long-winded speech, jumped up from their seats. Iruka shook his head helplessly and walked out of the classroom.

He was like that back then.

I find these things boring and tedious.

Only when they reach their own limits and can no longer go any further will they understand how important this lesson truly is!
Iruka left.

The atmosphere in the classroom became even more boisterous.

The students were extremely curious about the mysterious and beautiful transfer student, Hui Li.

Hui Li was still processing the information she had just received.

Intimidated by his superior martial prowess and impressive record, the students, though curious, dared not approach him to speak.

finally.

It seems that Naruto, who knew Hai Ri beforehand, became the focus of everyone's attention.

Naruto was still copying notes at this time.

With a pencil, scribbles and draws appear on the paper, one after another, scribbles leaping out from the paper.

"What are you writing? Let me see!"

The tall boy who had clashed with Naruto that morning yanked the notebook out from under Naruto's elbow.

The pen tip immediately left a huge scratch on the paper.

"what are you doing?"

Naruto immediately panicked.

He copied notes for a class and they were stolen, and what's worse, the notebook was gray glass.

If I lose Hui Li's notebook because of me, she'll definitely hate me!

Having finally met a new friend who didn't dislike him, Naruto didn't want that to happen no matter what.

"give me back!"

Naruto stood up and tried to snatch it.

"No! No! Naruto, you're so stingy."

The tall boy raised his hand, but Naruto, standing on tiptoe, couldn't reach the notebook.

In a moment of desperation, Naruto punched the boy in the stomach.

Ugh!

The tall boy screamed, and his laptop fell to the ground.

Naruto quickly picked up the notebook.

"He dared to hit me, beat him up!"

call!
Two other guys who were close to the tall guy suddenly rushed up.

The two of them worked together to grab Naruto and throw him to the ground.

Then the three of them surrounded Naruto and started punching and kicking him.

"You dare hit me! Monster!"

The sounds of flesh colliding echoed one after another.

At first, Naruto put up a fight, but when he realized it was ineffective, he used one hand to protect Hairi's notebook and the other hand to protect his face as the three of them kicked and punched him.

Hinata, who was secretly watching this side, bit her lip until it turned white.

The group's violent actions made her tremble with fear, especially with Naruto by her side...

Choji and Kiba couldn't stand it anymore.

Just as he was about to step forward.

However, Shikamaru stopped them with his hand and gave them a wink, preventing Ino and Sakura from making a move.

Shikamaru glanced at Hairi, who was sitting quietly next to Naruto.

He sat right behind Naruto.

The conflict originated with her, and the notebook that Naruto was desperately protecting was also hers.

They should know each other and have a good relationship.

But why didn't she take action?
Unable to figure out what Hairi was up to, Shikamaru could only stop his companions to see what this person was trying to do.
