Chapter 146 Konoha is doomed
For the next three days, Minato spent time with Naruto training him on the Rasengan.
With the support of multiple shadow clones, Naruto's training progressed rapidly.
In just two and a half days, he burst the water balloon with one hand and passed the first stage of Rasengan training.
This was also thanks to Kurama not disturbing his chakra; otherwise, even if Naruto had another two and a half years, it would have been difficult for him to achieve this goal.
In Minato's view, Naruto's talent was not low; his poor performance as the bottom of the class in the original work was mainly due to the Nine-Tails.
Furthermore, although Naruto did not fully inherit the Uzumaki clan's talents, he perfectly inherited their outstanding reflexes.
Fast speed and fast reaction speed are not the same thing at all.
As the saying goes, anyone can accelerate on a straightaway, but speed is what truly matters on a curve!
In the original manga, Naruto was able to dodge the Fourth Raikage's close-range attacks as soon as he learned the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, which shows that he has an exceptionally high talent in reaction ability.
Especially since he, as Naruto's father, is known throughout the ninja world for his speed, even if it's just copying what he's learned, he should at least let Naruto try to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.
As a result, Naruto ended up learning some ridiculous Shadow Clone Technique, which lowered his own chakra, making him vulnerable to being overwhelmed by the enemy's relentless attacks.
Without a doubt, this is still due to the issue of the Jinchūriki's identity.
"Naruto, come and fight me. Let me see what level you're at now."
Cultivation requires a balance of work and rest. In particular, the Rasengan requires chakra to circulate at high speed through the wrist, and excessive cultivation will put a great burden on the meridians.
With the first stage of training completed, Minato didn't rush Naruto to begin the second stage of training. Instead, he planned to guide Naruto's combat skills.
"Oh! Come on!"
Without saying a word, Naruto created dozens of shadow clones.
Seeing this, Minato sighed and raised his hand without hesitation: "Stop!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Naruto asked, puzzled.
"Why do you create so many shadow clones?"
Minato didn't understand; he had wanted to ask this question when he watched Naruto.
"Of course, more people means more power!"
Without a second thought, Naruto confidently declared, "Fifty against one, the advantage is in my hands!"
"Who told you that having more people necessarily means you're stronger?"
Minato sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. Although the child's chakra control had improved, his theoretical knowledge was practically illiterate.
"Listen up, Naruto. The original purpose of the Shadow Clone Technique was to obtain information more safely and conveniently through the transmission of consciousness."
Minato explained, "However, relatively speaking, Shadow Clone Jutsu is not suitable for combat because this technique has a fatal flaw: it evenly divides your main body's chakra!"
"If you create a hundred shadow clones, your original body will have less than one percent of its chakra left. Even if the chakra of the broken shadow clones flows back, it will dissipate in no time. It's like you've wasted all your chakra as soon as the battle begins."
"?is that so?"
Naruto scratched his head. He still couldn't distinguish between chakra and chakra chakra, so what Minato was saying was still a bit hard for him to understand.
However, this doesn't mean Naruto is stupid. From some of Naruto's reactions in the original work, it's not hard to see that this guy is actually very thoughtful; he just suffers from a lack of education.
"You rely too much on Shadow Clone Jutsu. It's best not to use Shadow Clone Jutsu lightly during battle. For a ninja, insufficient chakra is fatal."
Minato solemnly warned that Naruto's fighting style in the original work was only possible because of the protagonist's halo; very few people were truly aiming to kill him. Anyone else would have died a hundred times over.
Putting everything else aside, even when he encountered Zabuza, if Haku had even intended to kill him, Naruto wouldn't have been able to survive until he unleashed his full power.
A combination of the Mist Concealment Technique and a basic attack would be enough to slit his throat.
"Even a technique like Shadow Clone Jutsu, if used properly, can be a trump card."
Minato explained, "In head-on battles, especially those between equals, it's best not to use more than four shadow clones. Even if you create thousands of shadow clones, they'll only represent one-thousandth of your strength."
"Although it can deplete the enemy's stamina to some extent, the fatigue suffered by the shadow clone will also be fed back to you. As a result, you will not only have to consume the same amount of stamina, but you will also have to endure more pain and mental stress than the enemy."
"What am I supposed to do? All I know how to do is create a shadow clone." Naruto pouted.
"Who told you not to pay attention in class?" Minato looked at Naruto with a half-smile.
A necessary standard for ninja academies is mastering the Three Body Techniques.
This has given many people the misconception that you can't learn any useful techniques at ninja academies.
Actually, quite the opposite is true; the Ninja Academy has many basic and practical D-rank ninjutsu.
In my past life, there were conspiracy theories online that ninjutsu was monopolized by the major ninja villages and clans. This statement is both true and false.
Important ninjutsu and forbidden techniques will definitely not circulate in the market. This has nothing to do with monopoly. Ninjutsu is a part of strategic resources, and a very important part at that.
However, some unimportant ninjutsu, such as the ubiquitous Shadow Clone Jutsu, Great Breakthrough, and Great Fireball Jutsu, are not actually difficult to obtain.
Because 90% of people in this world do not have the qualifications to become ninjas, they can only mobilize a small amount of chakra. Even if some ninjutsu that have already been leaked are spread, it will not have much of an impact.
Moreover, everyone has different strengths and styles. For example, none of the twelve main characters know how to use earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or technique).
Even basic ninjutsu like Earth Release: Earth Wall or Earth Escape Technique are missing; you can't say Konoha doesn't have such ninjutsu.
In reality, for ninjas who fight in teams, those like Minato who learn everything to prepare for any eventuality are the odd ones out.
With the Shadow Clone Technique as a tool, Minato was confident that he could help Naruto achieve at least one chakra nature transformation in a short period of time, building upon his mastery of the Rasengan and Flying Thunder God Technique.
During the period when the father and son were diligently practicing.
A tall man with white hair and wearing a red haori arrived at the training ground.
"It's been such a long time since I've been back—"
Watching the father and son cultivate, Jiraiya's expression was complex, and his tone carried a hint of emotion: "They really are faces I miss."
"Hmm? Jiraiya-senpai?"
Seemingly sensing Jiraiya's gaze, Minato, who was instructing Naruto in the training ground, turned around, saw Jiraiya, paused slightly, and revealed a perfectly timed look of surprise.
"Jiraiya—senpai?"
Jiraiya was taken aback when he heard Minato's address.
How could it be a senior?
"Aren't you my disciple?"
Jiraiya pointed at himself in surprise, then seemed to remember something and slammed his fist in his hand: "I remember now, you were assigned to my squad after graduation—"
"No, I graduated early."
Minato shook his head: "Besides, my teacher is Tsunade."
"ha?
'
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya was dumbfounded.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind—
Konoha is doomed!
