This ninja in Naruto is unscientific

Chapter 269 The Genin of Konoha

The date of the joint Chunin Exams of the five great ninja villages is getting closer and closer.

While the Konoha renovation project was in full swing, the Konoha genin were not idle either.

Konoha's Third Training Ground.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The dull thuds of flesh colliding were incessant.

Obito Uchiha, like a mad bull, stared at Kakashi in front of him with bloodshot eyes, and his fists rained down like raindrops.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

As Obito retreated, he quickly formed hand seals, and a huge ball of flame erupted from him.

Kakashi narrowed his dead fish eyes slightly, but instead of dodging, he drew the White Fang short sword from his back, its blade crackling with lightning.

The short sword, accompanied by a piercing thunderclap, actually cleaved the massive fireball in two, and the undiminished lightning hurtled straight toward Obito's face.

"Clang!"

Another short sword appeared just in time, blocking Kakashi's attack.

Uchiha Shisui stood in front of Obito, his three-tomoe Sharingan slowly rotating.

"Kakashi, your Lightning Release has become faster," Shisui exclaimed, while simultaneously exerting force with his arm to knock Kakashi back.

"Your teamwork has improved too." Kakashi sheathed his sword, his tone calm, but his eyes revealed a hint of approval.

Obito collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, and wiped away his sweat.

"Damn it... I can clearly see your chakra flow, but my body just can't keep up!" Obito gritted his teeth.

"Obito, your Sharingan has now stabilized at three tomoe, which is a huge improvement."

Rin Nohara walked over from the side, carrying a first-aid kit, and gently treated the abrasions on Obito's arm.

"Furthermore, your Fire Release technique has a much higher temperature than before."

Hearing Rin's praise, Obito's sense of defeat vanished instantly. He grinned foolishly and scratched his head, "Hehe, really? Of course, I'm the future Hokage!"

But then his face fell, and he complained somewhat dejectedly:

"It's all because of those new Chunin Exam rules! They say that for the sake of fairness, the use of any scientific ninja tools to assist in aiming or defense is strictly prohibited during the exam! It's practically targeting us ninjas who are at the forefront of technology!"

"Without the goggles, I feel like something is missing from my field of vision, and my sense of security drops drastically."

After his previous "sparring" with Nishikawa Tetsu, Nishikawa Tetsu later gave Obito a pair of goggles with auxiliary functions. However, due to the strong opposition from the Raikage and Tsuchikage, scientific ninja tools were not allowed to be used during the Chunin Exams.

"Oh?"

Kakashi's eerie voice came from the side. He was wiping his short sword with a cloth, his dead fish eyes glancing at Obito's dusty face.

"You mean, without Nishikawa-senpai's technological advantages, even a genius from the Uchiha clan can't aim a Fireball Jutsu?"

Kakashi sheathed his sword, walked up to Obito, and pointed to a large tree behind Obito.

There was a charred mark on the trunk of that tree, still emitting black smoke, but it was located quite high up.

"That fireball attack just now, I stood still, and you still managed to miss it by so far. Obito, does your Sharingan have built-in astigmatism capabilities?" Kakashi mocked mercilessly.

"Nonsense...nonsense!"

Obito jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his face turning bright red, and stubbornly tried to argue his way out of it.

"That was me anticipating your anticipation. I calculated that you would jump into the tree, so I blocked your air route in advance. That's called tactical suppression, don't you understand, you masked man!"

"Is that so?" Kakashi sighed, giving him an expression that said, "I'll just watch you make this up."

"But the way I drew my sword just now was clearly a preparation to take the hit head-on. What did you predict?"

"..." Obito was speechless and looked to Shisui for help.

Shisui coughed twice and looked away: "Um... Obito, actually I was just about to say that your Fire Release projectiles are indeed a bit unpredictable."

"It's possible that without the crosshairs from the goggles, your distance judgment became slightly off. Don't rely too much on external tools; you still need to solidify your fundamentals."

"Hahahaha!" Kurenai Yuhi, who was resting nearby, couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Obito, your dependence is a bit too strong."

Obito was furious. He grabbed Kakashi by the collar and yelled:

"Kakashi, you're just a cold shower guy! I challenge you to a duel! Watch me beat you down even without my goggles!"

"I don't duel with idiots who can't even aim their own ninjutsu." Kakashi decisively brushed his hand away, turned and walked towards the shade of the tree. "Besides, your shoelace is untied. Be careful you don't trip over it when you rush over later."

"what?"

Obito subconsciously looked down at his feet.

"Just kidding, you idiot." Kakashi walked away without looking back, his shoulders shrugging slightly, clearly trying to suppress a laugh.

"Kakashi!!! You despicable scoundrel! I'm going to kill you!!!"

Obito realized he had been tricked again and angrily chased after him.

Watching the two of them start bickering and even fighting again, Lin shook her head helplessly, but there was a smile in the corner of her eye.

Although Kakashi and Shisui were already Chunin and didn't need to participate in this exam, they still accompanied Obito, Rin, and Kurenai in intensive sparring every day. They knew that this Chunin Exam, held on Konoha's home turf, was no child's play.

……

Fourth training ground.

"Ten thousand one! Ten thousand two! Ten thousand three!"

Matt Kai, his body wrapped in bandages, was doing push-ups upside down with one hand, every drop of sweat glistening in the sunlight.

Beside him, Sarutobi Asuma was doing the same thing with gritted teeth, only now his arms were trembling with exhaustion.

On either side of Asuma, Genma Shiranui and Ebisu were in even worse condition.

Genma, whose senbon was always in his mouth, was nowhere to be seen as he was panting heavily. His face was flushed, and he was desperately trying to support himself with his trembling hands. Ebisu was in an even worse state. His round-framed sunglasses had slipped down to the tip of his nose, and sweat had blurred the lenses. He didn't even have the strength to reach out and steady himself, and all that could be heard was his heavy breathing.

"Hold on! Asuma! Genma! Ebisu!"

A powerful, deafening voice boomed above the three of them.

Matt Day was wearing a green bodysuit. Although he still walked with a slight limp, his mobility was no longer a problem.

After several months of Tsunade's meticulous treatment and the investment of expensive medicines from the research institute, this former perennial genin not only miraculously survived, but is now even able to carry out daily activities and training.

More importantly, Might Guy's name had already resounded throughout Konoha because of his terrifying feat of fighting seven opponents and killing four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist during the Kirigakure ambush.

The Third Hokage personally promoted him to Special Jonin, granting him the same benefits as a Jonin. Although he didn't become a regular Jonin due to insufficient mission experience, this was still the greatest recognition of his abilities.

During Dai's hospitalization, the three teenagers took turns going to the hospital every day to serve him tea and water and take care of his daily life.

They witnessed firsthand Dai's burning figure, like a god, in his Death Gate state, and the power he unleashed to protect his comrades was deeply imprinted on their souls.

Therefore, when they learned that they could also participate in the Chunin Exams and have the opportunity to learn from Dai, the three of them did not hesitate to request to join this hellish taijutsu training.

"If you can't even do 10,000 handstand push-ups, you'll have to run 500 handstand laps around Konoha!"

Uncle Dai's voice was full of stern encouragement.

"Uncle Dai...ha..." Asuma gasped for breath, feeling like his lungs were about to explode. "This...ha...this really...ha...can he master...the Eight Gates...ha...?"

"Yeah, Uncle..." Genma gritted his teeth, managing to squeeze out a few words, "I feel like... my arm isn't even mine anymore..."

Ebisu was speechless and could only make muffled "ooh" sounds to express his agreement.

"sure!"

Matt Day crouched down, looking at the three young faces contorted in pain, his eyes filled with earnestness and emotion.

These three children genuinely want to inherit his power and truly want to become stronger to protect Konoha.

"Asuma, Genma, Ebisu! The essence of the Eight Gates is to forcibly break through the limitations of the body. If your bodies are not strong enough, forcibly opening the gates will only cause your meridians to collapse instantly!"

"Therefore, extreme physical training is about building a vessel for your body that can withstand that force!"

"If you can't do that, then it proves your youth isn't passionate enough!"

At this point, Matt Day suddenly stood up, grinned, and gave a thumbs-up.

"And! If you find handstand push-ups too boring, we can add a touch of youthful energy!"

"Wh...what kind of adjustment?" Asuma had a bad feeling.

"Kai! Take that out!"

"Yes, Dad!"

Matt Kai flipped himself up with a somersault and pulled out several extremely familiar... green bodysuits from a large backpack next to him.

"This new training garment uses high-elasticity fibers, which not only perfectly fit muscle lines but also generate slight resistance during exercise, increasing training effectiveness!" Kai introduced with shining eyes.

Might Guy took the item, walked up to Asma, and said earnestly:

"Asuma, put it on! This is the only way to become a master of martial arts! Only by wearing this vibrant green outfit can you truly feel the pulse of youth!"

"No...don't..."

Asma stared in horror at the horribly green bodysuit, desperately shrinking back.

He's the son of the Hokage, and he used to be a rebellious and cool young man. How could he run around the village wearing something so incredibly shameful?! If someone saw him, his image would be ruined!

"Asma! Don't resist youth!" Uncle Dai said righteously.

"Put them on, Asuma! Let's become dazzling taijutsu masters in Konoha together!" Guy enthusiastically encouraged him from the side.

"Help me—!!!"

Above the fourth training ground, Asuma's desperate screams echoed.

Genma Shiranui and Ebisu exchanged a glance. "We... we're not going to have to wear these too, are we?"

No way?
