"Hehe!" Naruto scratched his head and chuckled.
"In that case, as a celebration of your official becoming a ninja, I'll teach you a ninjutsu," Kitahara Kaede said. "Have you tested what your chakra nature is?"
"Not yet." Naruto Uzumaki was a little confused. He felt that the nature of chakra was something his teacher had mentioned in class, but he couldn't quite remember it.
Kitahara Kaede sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. Of course he knew that Uzumaki Naruto was a wind-style ninja, but as an ordinary Chunin who hadn't had much contact with Uzumaki Naruto before, he probably didn't know that.
So he pretended to ask that question, then went upstairs to his room and got a chakra test strip for Naruto to try.
"If the chakra test strip burns, it's fire-style; if it's cut open, it's wind-style; if it's wrinkled, it's lightning-style; if it's moist, it's water-style; and if it breaks, it's earth-style. Since your test strip is cut open, it means you're a wind-style ninja."
Kitahara Kaede explained.
"Ah, I see." Naruto Uzumaki suddenly realized.
Kitahara Kaede could only shake his head. What exactly did this ninja academy teach? But thinking about it, it made sense. Faced with the powerful obstacles from various ninja clans, what else could this ninja academy teach? Nothing more than some basic common sense and the Three Body Technique.
"Watch closely, Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
Kitahara Kaede shouted, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, and he unleashed a massive whirlwind that swept across the entire courtyard.
The courtyard, which was originally filled with Naruto's shadow clones, was instantly cleared away.
Moreover, because Kitahara Kaede deliberately held back her power, she did not cause any damage to the small courtyard.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Naruto Uzumaki exclaimed in shock. This was a ninjutsu he had never encountered before.
In ninja academies, students are generally only exposed to some body techniques, and even slightly reliable ninjutsu may require instruction from the Chunin or Jonin in charge.
Otherwise, you have to use the merits accumulated from completing tasks to redeem them.
Just look at the twelve Konoha 1s in the original work. Sakura, who comes from an ordinary family, doesn't know any ninjutsu. But the other Konoha 1s, except for Naruto Uzumaki, each have their own special skills and their ninjutsu is very powerful. In a real fight, they are only inferior to Chunin like Genryu Aragaki because they are still young and cannot keep up in terms of taijutsu or chakra.
Everything else is almost perfect.
Among them, the best, Hyuga Neji, after a year of training, has probably already surpassed ordinary elite Chunin.
Three years later, when Naruto returned from outside the village, he had already been promoted to Jonin.
The gap between ordinary families and ninja clans is that big, not to mention some are bloodline limit families, which have even more extraordinary unique techniques.
Among commoners, the difference lies in whether or not a family has been a ninja. For example, Kitahara Kaede was also a commoner ninja, but his deceased father was a Chunin. Even though he was just an ordinary Chunin, he still left him with chakra refining techniques and several wind-style ninjutsu.
This allowed him to consistently outperform the other two in the three-person team, even though his original talent wasn't necessarily better than Xiang Tianyuanlong's, he was always one step ahead of his opponent.
"Kitahara Kaede!"
The roar of Kitahara Yoshiko, the mother, echoed from the living room.
"You've been testing your ninjutsu at home again?"
Kitahara Kaede couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had tried his best to control it, but he was completely different now than before. In the past, when he used Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, the range and power were very small.
Even now, even if he stops, his power is still enough to cover the entire courtyard.
"Mom, I didn't damage the yard," Kitahara Kaede said.
He then looked at Naruto Uzumaki and said, "This place isn't very convenient. Let's go find a training ground nearby to practice!"
As a militarized fortress, Konoha Village not only has training grounds within the settlements of various ninja clans, but also many public training grounds to facilitate the training of ninjutsu by the village's ninjas.
There was a martial arts arena near the Kitahara family's residence. Kitahara Kaede grabbed Naruto Uzumaki and sped there, arriving at the arena in no time.
"Brother Feng, your teleportation technique is amazing!"
Naruto exclaimed in amazement.
Kitahara Kaede originally wanted to persuade Uzumaki Naruto to practice these basic skills more, but then she thought better of it. Naruto was making Rasengan, and he didn't follow the usual path of a ninja who carefully conserved chakra.
In the later stages, it was all about aliens fighting, so the concept of basic skills didn't seem to matter much anymore.
"Just practice more and you'll get it. Give it a try. I'll teach you the hand seal sequence and the flow of chakra first," Kitahara Kaede said, as he began teaching Uzumaki Naruto the Great Breakthrough of Wind Release.
Naruto Uzumaki tried, but it wasn't very successful. The problem of the Nine-Tails affecting his chakra hadn't been resolved yet.
Even if Kitahara Kaede didn't possess the same level of eye power as Uchiha Sasuke three years later, which allowed him to directly enter Naruto's mental world and crush the Nine-Tails' illusion, he still couldn't do it.
After all, Naruto Uzumaki was too sensitive. In just a short while, he sensed the presence of several chakra sources around him, which should all be members of the Anbu who usually protected Naruto.
"By the way, don't you know how to create multiple shadow clones? I'll teach you a method. You can use multiple shadow clones to cultivate at the same time, which is equivalent to increasing your cultivation speed countless times," Kitahara Kaede said.
When the multiple shadow clones disappear, they will send back their memories and fatigue along with them.
Creating multiple shadow clones at the same time is equivalent to multiple people cultivating simultaneously.
This isn't exactly a secret; it's practically common knowledge. Yet, in the end, only Naruto Uzumaki was able to do it, because the Shadow Clones would distribute the chakra evenly.
If the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, also created hundreds of shadow clones at the same time as Naruto Uzumaki, then the amount of chakra in each shadow clone would be insufficient, leaving only a small amount.
Naruto Uzumaki, who possesses hundreds of times more chakra than Kakashi Hatake, is completely different. He divides his chakra into a hundred parts, and if he divides them equally, each part will have a chakra level equivalent to that of Kakashi Hatake.
If Kakashi Hatake found out, it would be truly heartbreaking.
This doesn't even include the Nine-Tails' chakra within him, which is an unimaginably vast aggregate of chakra, practically an inexhaustible chakra power bank.
Not to mention, another crucial factor is that Naruto Uzumaki's chakra recovery speed is also incredibly fast.
