Chapter 230: Chapter 230 The Flame in the Heart
"Damn it, I don't want to do the questions!"
"But if I don't do the exercises, it will be embarrassing if my score is too low..."
In the evening, Obito looked at the two test papers on the table and felt a headache.
There are fifty-five questions in total. If he wants to finish them in three days, he has to do at least eighteen questions every day.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Finally, Obito formed two shadow clones with hand seals and said, "Play rock-paper-scissors. The loser chooses a test paper."
After saying that, Obito picked up a test paper and a pen and pretended to do a test.
For Obito, it is very painful for both the shadow clone to do the questions and for himself to do the questions. Doing the questions himself is continuous and uninterrupted pain, while the shadow clone experiences tremendous pain in an instant. Obito chooses short-term pain.
Because he was worried that the shadow clone would not cooperate, Obito not only created an extra clone to compete, but also pretended that he was also doing the test.
"The Shadow Clone Technique does have its merits." Obito thought to himself as he drew a Q version of Nohara Rin on a piece of scratch paper.
"Stop playing rock-paper-scissors? You can do the test by yourself. I can't do it." One of the Obito Kage clones refused bluntly.
When Obito was thinking about which step went wrong, another shadow clone spoke:
"Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? You know, I'm also Uchiha Obito."
Obito was a little speechless. These two clones were actually going to play bad together. Obito couldn't help but say,
"Since you are also me, then hurry up and help with the test paper."
"But now I am the shadow clone, and it won't be me who will be embarrassed then." The shadow clone said indifferently.
Something even more unbearable happened to Obito. Not only did the two shadow clones not help him with his homework, they also read the novels he bought and ate the snacks he bought, while he, the original body, was doing the test paper.
Obito couldn't help but start to concentrate his breathing and snatch the novels and snacks from the two people's hands.
"What are you doing? I'm enjoying it!" the shadow clone who was reading the novel shouted angrily.
"Do you want to fight?" The shadow clone who was eating snacks rushed towards Obito with an unhappy look on his face.
The shadow clone who was reading the novel also rushed forward without thinking too much.
Obito knocked the two shadow clones away with one punch and one kick. Because they were used for test papers, he did not give them too much chakra, and the two shadow clones had no fighting ability.
Although Obito enjoyed the fight, he remembered after he finished that the Shadow Clones had memory feedback, and the memories of being punched in the face and kicked in the chest by a whirlwind kick instantly flowed back into his mind.
"Damn Shadow Clone Technique, it doesn't work at all." Obito complained as he lay on the bed.
"I don't want to do the test!" After twisting on the bed for a while, Obito finally got up, sat on the chair and started doing the questions.
No matter how much fun you have, you still have to complete Teacher Mu Yue's assignments.
…
The next day, Obito went to the South Forest to practice as usual.
The first step is to practice Armament Haki. After practicing for two and a half hours, take a break, and then practice the breathing method.
"I think you haven't forgotten the rules. It's still the same as last time." Mu Yue asked with a smile.
"I haven't forgotten." Obito nodded with a heavy face.
He had to do two questions every time he was hit, and what annoyed him most was that if he failed to dodge, he would have to add another 10%.
"Today's training cannot be the same as last time, otherwise it will be inevitable to be divided into installments." Obito made up his mind secretly.
He noticed that Shisui also failed to dodge successfully, but had fewer questions than him, which meant that he still had a lot of room for improvement.
If he had been more cautious and successfully dodged again, he might have only had to do about thirty questions.
"Teacher Mu Yue, what if he wasn't hit once and dodged all the attacks?" Obito asked curiously.
"Then follow the rules to cancel the questions you haven't done, or cancel the questions added later." Mu Yue thought for a while and replied.
This is just a pie in the sky, because it is difficult to achieve this effect in reality, because Mu Yue has been increasing the intensity of training over time. Unless his strength is greatly improved in a short period of time, it is impossible to dodge all attacks.
When Obito heard that he could offset the questions, his eyes lit up. If he could complete the level like this a few more times, it would be equivalent to a golden medal of immunity from punishment for several rounds of question-solving training.
"Start!" Mu Yue gave an order, and the two shadow clones began to move.
Shisui and Obito also entered a state of full concentration on breathing and began to run at high speed.
Having learned from the last lesson, Obito did not try to compete with Mu Yueying's clone on the spot again. Instead, he tried to maneuver around it, and only tried to dodge the attack on the spot when he had no other choice.
"It's always just a little bit off. Damn it! Can't it be faster?" Obito shouted in his heart.
Although he tried his best to dodge, he was still hit by Mu Yue at the right time.
Time soon came to the fifty-five minutes when it was easiest to be hit.
After five minutes of highly concentrated breathing, although Obito's breathing method at this moment can be considered fully concentrated breathing, it is not as concentrated as at the beginning.
Noticing Mu Yue's figure getting closer, Obito knew that another attack was coming.
Obito's Sharingan could clearly see Mu Yue's fingers approaching him, and it seemed that no matter how hard he tried, he could not avoid the fate of being hit.
"Move your body!" Obito roared in his heart.
This blow could not cause any harm to his body, but it could deal a heavy blow to his spirit.
"How could I be only at this level? Breathing of Fire, concentrate on your breathing!" Obito continued to concentrate his breathing again and again, instantly gaining stronger physical abilities, and narrowly avoided Mu Yue's attack.
Looking at the fingers less than a centimeter away from his head, Obito showed a surprised smile. This meant that he had dodged not only two questions, but also 10% of the total questions!
"That's a small improvement. It seems that occasionally doing exercises is indeed the best solution, at least for Obito."
Mu Yue was very satisfied with this. He thought it would take at least the fourth time to dodge, but Obito completed it in the second training session.
After the time was up, Mu Yue began to calculate the training results of the two.
"Shisui was hit nineteen times in total and dodged zero times. That leaves forty-two questions to answer."
"Obito was hit nineteen times in total and dodged once, so there are thirty-six questions he needs to answer."
Obito couldn't help but show the joy on his face. Although thirty-six questions were not a few, it was a huge improvement over the fifty-five questions he had the first time.
"Sure enough, there's a huge difference between dodging and not dodging." Obito thought to himself. He and Shisui were hit the same number of times, but because he dodged once, the difference between the two was a full six questions.
"Obito actually managed to dodge the attack!" Shisui showed a surprised expression after hearing the two's battle record.
He saw through the essence of this training during the first training session. Without a breakthrough, it would be impossible for him to avoid Mu Yue's attack.
In other words, Obito made a breakthrough in just the second training session.
Shisui felt a wave of pressure coming. His Sharingan was of a higher level than his, and his Breathing of Flame was even stronger. Now he could defeat Obito, which meant he had stronger ninjutsu and instant body movement techniques.
"The time limit for this time is still three days, and the next training session will be three days later." Mu Yue said.
The rhythm of the special training every two days is a bit tight. No matter how talented you are, it is impossible to make breakthroughs so quickly every time. Mu Yue will slowly extend the training time, making it more intensive at the beginning in order to create enough pressure.
Since no one had a birthday this time, Mu Yue just sent out the questions directly.
After saving the questions, Shisui began to practice wholeheartedly.
This special training really made him feel a deep sense of crisis. If we compare the results, he has already lost to Obito this time.
"I have to be stronger. As the first disciple of Master Mu Yue, how can I lose to others!" The belief in Shisui's heart supported him to complete one training after another using full concentration breathing.
He has his own pride in his heart. Although he is the youngest disciple, his strength has always been the best in Mu Yue's class. He also makes extremely fast progress in various trainings, and his speed in learning Fire Style is much faster than Obito.
Now that he was surpassed by someone he once easily defeated, Shisui naturally felt unwilling.
After the practice, Shisui went home, ate, rested for a while and then started practicing again. He practiced until he was exhausted, rested, and then practiced again until 11:30 in the evening when he washed up and went to bed.
In the next few days, Shisui maintained this high-intensity training. He wanted to dodge Mu Yue's attacks and become stronger.
On the morning before the third training session, Shisui made some progress in his training, but not in his breathing technique, but in his Armament Haki.
Shisui imagined that there was an invisible armor attached to his body, and then he threw a punch. The part of the tree that was hit by him instantly exploded, and a large amount of wood chips flew everywhere.
"Is this the power of Armament Haki?" Shisui looked at his own white little fist.
The power of that punch just now was not right. If he used a lot of chakra to strengthen his fist, he could have caused this effect, but he didn't just now.
"Yes, you just wrapped the power of Armament Haki around your fist." Mu Yue nodded and said.
He used the appraisal to check Shisui's proficiency in Armament Haki, and found that it had reached 20 points.
Shisui threw another punch, only to find that everything was back to normal.
When Shisui threw his third punch, he used it again, and the tree collapsed.
"You are still not proficient enough at the moment. If you grasp the feeling and practice more, you will be able to use it in a preliminary way." Mu Yue explained.
Listening to Mu Yue's words, Shisui closed his eyes and carefully felt the feeling of using the Armament Haki just now.
However, this feeling was obviously not easy to find, and Shisui was still unable to use the Armament Haki stably even after his subsequent consecutive punches.
Obito and Kakashi, who were training nearby, looked at him sideways.
They also started to practice Armament Haki one after another, but compared to Shisui who was almost able to use it, they still had no idea about Armament Haki.
Mu Yue could only say that this was very normal. Not to mention Shisui's powerful talent in Yintun, Kakashi, who was the second person to start practicing Armament Haki, started practicing Armament Haki after Shisui had practiced for half a month.
Because Shisui had made a breakthrough in his Armament Haki, Mu Yue stopped practicing Shisui's breathing method today and let Shisui practice Armament Haki domineering all day to get a feel for it.
Although the disciples' current chakra levels mean there aren't many opportunities to use Armament Haki in battle, it is still a very powerful secret technique. It is a good idea to learn it early, as the chakra will gradually increase.
Instead of practicing breathing techniques during the day, Shisui did it alone at night.
Anyway, he is the only one at home, so training won't disturb his family's sleep. As for the neighbors, his training noise is not that loud.
"Why is Obito's breathing method progressing so much faster than mine?" Shisui reflected on this during his break.
Practicing at the same time and with the same teacher, his progress in breathing techniques always lagged behind Obito's.
Although Shisui couldn't directly see the proficiency through appraisal like Mu Yue, Shisui was also practicing Fire Breathing after all, and he could clearly feel that the gap between him and Obito in Fire Breathing was getting bigger and bigger.
Ever since he successfully got started, Shisui felt that he had not made much progress in breathing techniques.
If they were to fight now using only breathing techniques, Shisui was sure that he would lose to Obito.
"Breathing of Fire, flame..." Shisui thought of the step of comprehending the breathing method. It was at that step that Obito's Breathing of Fire began to progress rapidly.
"In Obito's heart is the fire of enthusiasm to help others, but what kind of fire do I have in my heart?" Shisui asked himself.
Of course, the breathing technique could not improve by doing good deeds. After all, it was the Breathing of Flame, not the Breathing Technique of Merit. It was just that Obito's genuine enthusiasm for helping others was very high, which stimulated the improvement of the breathing technique.
Shisui seemed to know the reason why he was lagging behind in his breathing technique, but for a moment he didn't know what kind of fire he had in his heart, or whether he had any fire at all.
After arriving at 11:30, Shisui still couldn't figure things out. He quickly washed up and went to bed for tomorrow's training. However, perhaps because his mind was in a mess, he didn't fall asleep quickly. He fell asleep in a daze after two o'clock.
He woke up in the morning according to his biological clock and went to the forest to start practicing as usual.
Mu Yue did not disrupt his training plan today. He started with two and a half hours of Armament Haki training and then started breathing training as usual.
"Training begins!" Seeing that Shisui and Obito were ready, Mu Yue announced the start of special training.
The two Mu Yueying clones rushed towards Shisui and Obito respectively.
In order not to interfere with each other, Shisui and Obito ran in two directions.
Shisui ran in the southern forest, which he was very familiar with, but he still had doubts about his own breathing of fire.
I don't know if it's because he didn't sleep well last night or if there's something wrong with his mentality, but Shisui's special training results today were even worse than the second time.
"Shisui has forty-six strokes, Obito has thirty-four."
Hearing the results, Shisui sighed, he knew his body best, he had felt it during the special training.
There was a gleam in Obito's eyes. Although it wasn't much, twice was still progress.
"Obito, you should start practicing. Shisui, come here." Mu Yue said. He was very experienced in this kind of thing. Usually, it was just a problem with the mind and they needed to talk.
