A convenience store opened in Naruto

Kakashi shook his head, he felt there was something fishy going on.

"Hey, as a teacher, you have to learn to set an example for your students," Ye Feng said unhappily. "You have to know that there is motivation only when there are benefits. If you only let students practice but don't let them see the benefits, how can that work? How can students have the motivation to practice?"

What kind of perverse logic is this? What good is there to gain from this? The purpose of the exercise is to help them master the subtle differentiation of chakra and how much force to exert in what state.

After learning it, they will naturally understand how to distribute chakra when fighting with the enemy so that their combat power can be more lasting.

Isn’t that the benefit?

"If you want to eat barbecue, can I treat you later?" Kakashi said tiredly. At this moment, he missed his old friend Kai in green so much.

He had never felt so tired when he was with Kai.

"No way. I never accept food given out of pity." Ye Feng refused with great dignity.

"I bet with you!" Sasuke said with a cold expression. He didn't believe that a novice could perform better than himself.

"Well, you're the one who's straightforward!" Ye Feng glanced at Kakashi, as if to say, 'Look, a little kid is more generous than you, and you're still hesitating here.'

Walking to a tree, Ye Feng looked at Sasuke and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer. If you win, I will tell you an additional piece of information about how to upgrade your Sharingan."

Kakashi's eyes narrowed: "I'll join!"

He also wanted to know the information about the Sharingan's advancement.

Ye Feng looked at Kakashi meaningfully and said, "Count you in. Is there anyone else who wants to join? I know someone's favorite food."

"I, I, I!" Sakura said quickly with a blushing face.

When Naruto saw that everyone else had joined, wouldn't it seem like he was out of place if he didn't join?

He also hurriedly raised his hand and said, "And me, I'll join in too."

"Okay, now everyone join in and watch, I will show you a performance."

Following Kakashi's example, Ye Feng climbed up the tree, one step at a time, two steps at a time, going higher and higher. Finally, he did the same move as Kakashi, hanging upside down.

"You lost!" Ye Feng's face was full of excitement.

Before climbing the tree, he didn't think he could really do it. As he said, he was a novice. Since he woke up yesterday and knew that he had chakra, he had not really tried it.

After all, it was just a gamble, so winning or losing didn't matter to him. He also wanted to eat barbecue. He had been in Konoha for so long, but he had never eaten barbecue before.

In the past, it was because he didn’t have enough money, but now that he has enough money, of course he has to spend some.

It's boring to eat alone. What's important for barbecue is the atmosphere. Gathering with a few good friends, drinking beer and chatting, that's the right way to enjoy barbecue.

"How did you do that?" Kakashi asked in disbelief.

"I just walked up step by step." It didn't work. His head was still a little congested. Ye Feng changed his posture, sat on a tree branch, and answered Kakashi's question.

"No, that's not what I wanted to ask you."

"Then which one do you want to ask?" Ye Feng was a little confused. "Didn't we agree in advance that I would tell you extra information only if you win? Now that you lose, there is naturally no information."

"Are you trying to default on your debt?"

"I'll treat you to barbecue when we get back," Kakashi said. He wasn't asking for money for a meal. "I want to ask you, how did you manage not to cast a seal?"

That’s right. After Kakashi’s reminder, Naruto and the others suddenly realized. No wonder they felt something was wrong. It turned out that they did not see Ye Feng’s process of forming hand seals.

Before they climbed up the tree, they all made hand seals, including Kakashi.

"Before I answer this question, let me ask you a question. Why do we need to make hand seals? Who told you that you must make hand seals to release ninjutsu?"

"Ah this...this..." Naruto was dumbfounded. This was a question he had never thought about before. Not to mention that he didn't know why he had to make hand seals, before yesterday, he even remembered the name of Chakra wrong.

Sakura and Sasuke were also thinking hard. Whether in their cognition or in the knowledge they learned in school, it seemed that everyone was saying that a ninja needed to make hand seals to release ninjutsu, and without hand seals, ninjutsu could not be released.

Kakashi was still experienced. He answered this question: "The purpose of forming a seal before launching a ninjutsu is to refine the chakra and guide the chakra out of the body, so as to achieve the effect of releasing the ninjutsu."

"That's why we need to make seals!"

"To put it bluntly, forming hand seals is not the goal, the process of forming hand seals is the most important. Forming hand seals is telling yourself that I am about to release ninjutsu, so please let out your chakra. Is that what you mean?" Ye Feng asked, stroking his chin.

Although Ye Feng's statement was a bit distorted, that was the meaning. Kakashi nodded: "That's about it."

"Then let me add something. Do you think I'm right?" Ye Feng said analytically. "First of all, before you can use ninjutsu, you must have chakra as the 'raw material', and chakra is divided into physical energy and spiritual energy."

"Before releasing the ninjutsu, according to the type of ninjutsu and the requirements of the scale, mix the two in different ways to prepare the chakra that matches the released ninjutsu."

"Although the mixing process is completed quickly in the body, the ninja himself actually needs to use hand seals to remind his body how to complete these steps."

"Each hand gesture corresponds to a step in the body. Before the ninjutsu is activated, all the hand seals are doing one thing, which is to guide the chakra outwards."

"At the same time, each set of hand gestures also corresponds to a ninjutsu. The hand seals are also to remind myself that I need to release this ninjutsu instead of other ninjutsu. Am I right?"

That's right, Kakashi couldn't deny that hand seals were a process of channeling out the energy in the body, while also reminding himself to release that ninjutsu.

"Since you both agree, let's go back to the original question. Why do we need to make hand seals? Who told you that you must make hand seals when you release ninjutsu?"

"You don't have to answer. I'll answer for you."

"First of all, no one told you that you must make hand seals to release ninjutsu. You have been taught to do so since you were little, and the ninjas you have come into contact with since you were little all do so, so you naturally think that you have to do so too."

"Actually, to export chakra, you don't necessarily have to make hand seals. You can also export chakra using your own thoughts."

"The effect of hand seals is very small. That's why some ninjas need a long series of complicated hand gestures to release ninjutsu, while other ninjas only need a few simple hand gestures to release it."

"Take the typical character, the Second Hokage, for example. The hand seals he made when launching ninjutsu did not need to be that complicated. Another example is the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama. The hand seals he made were even fewer. Basically, he just put his hands together and whatever he thought of would come true."

That’s what I said, but why does it sound so awkward?

What does it mean that whatever you wish for will come true when you put your hands together?

"Give me another example. Tailed beasts, Kakashi, when have you ever heard that tailed beasts need to make hand seals to release ninjutsu? They don't even have hands, how can they make hand seals?"

Kakashi shook his head. How would he know?

"What are the tailed beasts?" Naruto asked like a curious baby.

Kakashi's face changed. He couldn't tell him that because Naruto didn't know that there was a tailed beast in his body.

He tried desperately to wink at Ye Feng, hoping that Ye Feng would not tell this to anyone.

Ye Feng was too lazy to explain it to Naruto. Even if Kakashi hadn't winked at him, he wouldn't have said it. Anyway, Naruto would be exposed to it soon, so he was too lazy to explain it again.

"We'll talk about this later. Let's get back to the point. Through the above narration, we can draw a conclusion. As long as you can remember the flow path of chakra in the body when releasing ninjutsu, as well as the proportion of physical energy and mental energy, then whether to seal or not will become an irrelevant matter."

"So, this is why I can achieve the same operation as you without making hand seals, because I remember it. If you remember it, you can do it too."

"However, I have to remind you in advance that I can remember it because I am experienced. It has nothing to do with whether I had chakra before."

On this last point, Ye Feng admitted that he lied. He was not experienced at all. If you asked him about other knowledge, he didn't know as much as Naruto. After all, Naruto had been to school.

He learned part of it from watching anime, and also learned part of it from the martial arts movies he saw in his previous world. He made his own guess based on the combination of these.

Isn't the use of internal energy in martial arts movies the same as the use of chakra?

When have you ever seen a person with internal strength in a martial arts movie pause with his fingers before making a move?

Isn't it just about posing, shouting, and then going up and starting to fight?

Admittedly, there are people who make useless gestures before a fight, but if it weren't for the movie effect, who would make a bunch of useless gestures before a fight?

The Naruto world used to be fictional, but after he came, it became the real world. Whoever wants to gesture can do so, but Ye Feng doesn't know how to gesture anyway.

Seal? What seal?

If you can't guarantee that you are faster than me, then don't perform seals in front of me. Otherwise, Ye Feng can hardly guarantee that he won't go up and stab others twice while they are performing seals, allowing you to show off!

"Okay, I'm done, you guys continue practicing." Ye Feng jumped down from the tree and said, "Don't forget to treat me when I come back."

Naruto and his friends were practicing tree climbing with their heads down. All of them had been practicing ninjutsu for several years, but now they were surpassed by a newcomer. One can imagine how devastating this was to them.

They kept Ye Feng's words in mind. Being able to perform ninjutsu without forming hand seals opened a new door for them.

But they also knew that they were too far away from the gate. They didn't even know a few ninjutsu, so they were still some distance away from the entrance.

What they need to do now is not to think about how to release ninjutsu without forming hand seals, but to practice ninjutsu well. Only when they have mastered the operation of chakra finely and finely, will they try to step towards the gate.

What they are doing now is learning how to control chakra accurately.

"Hey, are you thinking about it too?" Looking at Kakashi who was lost in thought, Ye Feng patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Come on, I believe you can do it!"

"By the way, do you want to see my new ideas?"

"What?" Kakashi didn't know how Ye Feng did it. Since he could manipulate chakra so delicately right from the start, why didn't he try to refine chakra himself before?

"I didn't want to before, but now I have no choice."

Kakashi's face changed slightly. How could Ye Feng know what he was thinking? Could it be a secret technique similar to that of the Yamanaka family?

"I didn't use any secret techniques on you. I don't know any secret techniques, and I don't know any mind-reading skills," Ye Feng said a little speechlessly, "Don't think that just because you wear a mask, others can't see what you're thinking. Your eyes betray you."

"Have you not heard of this saying, eyes are the windows to the soul. If you want to know what a person is thinking, you can tell by looking at their eyes."

"There is another way to guess what a person is thinking through his facial expressions, which is more accurate than looking at his eyes."

"After all, a person's happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy are most easily reflected on his face."

"Do you have any new ideas?" Kakashi quickly changed the subject. It was still very embarrassing to have someone see through what he was thinking.

"Hey, look at my feet. I don't have any weird fetishes. Don't look at me like that."
