Naruto: Minato Namikaze, born evil

Chapter 27 Kushina's Arrival

Compared to other A-rank ninjutsu, the Rasengan is actually much more difficult to master.

If you compare ninjutsu to a math problem, then hand seals are like the calculation process on paper; you just need to follow the steps to deduce it.

The training of the Rasengan is equivalent to abandoning the paper and directly obtaining the answer through mental calculation.

As for incorporating property changes into the Rasengan, it's equivalent to interdisciplinary integration and requires mental arithmetic, which is simply beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.

It's worth mentioning that although the training method for the Rasengan is difficult, the training principle is quite simple.

To put it simply, it's about making meatballs, literally!

It can be viewed as a simple math problem that requires complex mental calculations, which is exactly the opposite of those ninjutsu that rely on hand seals.

Ninjutsu like Flying Thunder God Technique and Reincarnation of the Corpse are like Qian Xuesen's manuscripts. Even if you put them in front of you, you just can't understand them or learn them.

Advanced ninjutsu like the Rasengan and the Tailed Beast Ball are like atomic bombs; the principles aren't particularly complex, but the actual manufacturing process is extremely difficult.

Kakashi's assessment of the Rasengan as "the ultimate in chakra transformation" is no exaggeration.

Nawaki was able to master tree climbing within two hours, which shows that his chakra control talent is not bad, and he should meet the requirements for Rasengan training.

Watching Nawaki wading through the water, Minato smiled knowingly, then turned and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Treading water is an advanced technique for climbing trees, only requiring an additional step of adjusting chakra in real time. Once you've mastered tree climbing, you should be able to master it after a few tries.

Sure enough, before the dishes were even finished at the Water Gate, cheers erupted from the courtyard.

"Success!"

"Let's make it a bit more difficult for him."

Without turning his head, Minato turned and walked outside. The clone who was chopping vegetables next to him turned and walked outside.

"Minato! Look! I did it!"

In the small pond in the yard, Rope Tree stood steadily on the water's surface and excitedly greeted his clone as it arrived.

Seeing this, the clone nodded, a smile playing on its lips: "The main body has asked me to make things a little more difficult for you."

As he spoke, he squatted down and placed one hand on the water's surface, instantly creating surging waves!

"Wow!"

The waves surged, and the chakra beneath Rope Tree's feet suddenly lost its balance, causing it to fall into the water with a splash.

"Once you can walk freely on the waves, you can begin training for the Rasengan," the clone said with a smile.

"Damn it... I was just careless! You wait, I'll show you right away!"

Rope Tree got up, wiped the water off his face, and tried to stand on the water again.

It wasn't until Minato had prepared lunch that Nawaki was able to stand firmly in the waves, though moving was still a bit difficult.

"It's time to eat."

Shuimen, carrying dishes, called out to the courtyard.

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree rushed into the house, changed out of his wet clothes, and sat down at the table to wolf down his food.

After finishing his meal, he rushed back into the yard to continue practicing water-walking.

Two hours passed quickly.

Rope Tree strolled leisurely on the water, unaffected by the surging waves beneath his feet.

"It's a success..."

Rope Tree's tone couldn't hide his excitement, as if he had finally overcome his hardships.

"Congratulations, you can begin training for the Rasengan."

The clone laughed and said, then disappeared with a bang.

Meanwhile, Minato was silently memorizing the hand seals for Earth Release ninjutsu in his room. After receiving the clone's memories, he got up and left the room.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Rope Tree sitting on the edge, gently rubbing his ankle and grimacing as he gasped for breath.

"Ouch—that hurts!"

"The chakra was overused."

Minato chuckled lightly: "It's not a big problem, but to prevent any lasting effects, you should still go to the hospital to get it checked out. The teacher should be at the hospital right now."

The border with the Land of Rain has been unstable lately, with wounded soldiers being sent back every now and then, which has led to a shortage of staff at the hospital.

Tsunade's ninja roster isn't officially part of the hospital, but due to her exceptional medical skills, she's frequently asked to help out there.

Interestingly, because of this relationship, coupled with her status as the granddaughter of the First Hokage and her good looks, she wielded more influence in the hospital than the hospital director.

"It's okay, we can let my sister take a look when she gets home."

Nawaki said urgently, "Let's start training for the Rasengan as soon as possible!"

Minato shook his head: "Then I definitely need to go out and buy you some tools to aid your cultivation."

"All right…"

Rope Tree looked uninterested.

He changed into clean clothes, and as soon as the two of them stepped out, they saw Tsunade leading a red-haired girl toward their house.

"elder sister!"

Nawaki waved to Tsunade.

Minato's gaze fell on the girl next to Tsunade.

The girl had bright red hair, as vibrant as flames, a round, chubby face, and a pair of large, bright black eyes that looked very spirited.

"Where are you two going?" Tsunade asked as she saw the two of them leave.

"Napaki has overdone his water-walking training, and his ankle meridians are a bit painful. I was just about to take him to the hospital to see his teacher," Minato said.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade squatted down, reached out and pinched Nawaki's ankle, then quickly stood up again: "It's nothing serious, a good night's sleep will do the trick."

"But I didn't expect you, Nawaki, to have already mastered water-walking? Minato taught you, right? How's your progress? Have you learned it yet?"

"certainly!"

Nawaki crossed his arms and proudly raised his chin: "I can walk freely in the waves now!"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade smiled and ruffled Nawaki's hair: "Really? That's impressive!"

Nawaki turned his head away shyly, not letting Tsunade touch his head: "Don't treat me like a child!"

"But you're clearly just a child~"

Tsunade chuckled softly, then gently placed her hand on the shoulder of the girl beside her.

"Oh, right, let me introduce you. This is the child I mentioned before who will be staying at our house temporarily. Her name is Kushina Uzumaki."

"Hello...you guys."

Kushina spoke nervously, a hint of unease lurking in her eyes.

"Oh! Hello! My name is Nawaki! I'm my older sister's younger brother! Nice to meet you!"

Rope Tree gave a thumbs-up, grinned, and said enthusiastically.

"Hello, my name is Minato Namikaze, and I am a student of Tsunade. Nice to meet you."

Minato's gentle smile eased Kushina's tension somewhat.

That's right...

Who introduces themselves as their older sister's younger brother?

This blond guy is pretty normal, except he looks a bit effeminate and lacks masculinity…

Kushina was filled with doubt.

Although she was initially uneasy about arriving, she was actually quite lively... even feisty.

Seeing that the atmosphere of their first meeting went fairly well, Tsunade smiled and looked at Minato: "Very good! To celebrate Kushina's arrival, let's make dinner a bit more elaborate!"

Minato smiled and nodded: "Yes, leave it to me."

Upon hearing this, Kushina's expression froze slightly.

Eh?

What's wrong with this family?

Why are kids cooking?

Could I have been sold out by the village?
