Chapter 20: Chapter 20:- The Training Method Of One Punch Man

"Still, Idaka has good ideas."
"Indeed, if we injure Ryosuke during the sparring, the Elder likely won't have any reason to trouble us—after all, we're just 'guiding' Ryosuke."
One of the Uchiha clan members even proposed, "Currently, Ryosuke is only relying on his connections to avoid joining the police force."
"We still have to work hard on duty before we can clock out."
"Idaka, how about we arrange for Ryosuke to have a duel with us after tomorrow's shift?"
Idaka, however, waved his hand, looking at the group with a meaningful gaze.
"I am absolutely confident I can give Ryosuke a crushing defeat, but that alone wouldn't prove that training with Might Guy is useless."
"So, we should let him train properly with that guy for a period of time first. Then, after thoroughly humiliating him, Ryosuke will realize that taijutsu training is fundamentally pointless."
"Taijutsu is sufficient as it is; we should focus on developing our Sharingan properly."
The others smirked and nodded in agreement, heaping praise on Idaka.
"Idaka is truly thorough in his thinking."
This approach would indeed make Ryosuke face reality.
It wasn't that they disliked Ryosuke. But neglecting the treasure trove of the Sharingan to train taijutsu was something they couldn't comprehend at all.

Meanwhile, Ryosuke, having returned home, obediently fetched medicinal ointments to apply over his whole body.
This scene was witnessed by the Elder, who had just returned home, his brows instantly furrowing. Having only this one grandson, how could he not be worried?
"How did you end up like this again?"
Seeing his grandfather's concerned look, Ryosuke quickly replied, "It's nothing serious."
Though his body was sore, he believed his current recovery rate would have him fully healed by tomorrow.
The Elder bent down to carefully inspect Ryosuke's injuries. Though covered in bruises, it was all superficial damage, and he felt a bit relieved.
"Was it that Might Guy again?"
"Yes."
Ryosuke didn't bother hiding it and pointed to the bottle of ointment in his hand as he asked, "Grandfather, how much of this ointment do we have? I plan to sell some to Might Guy."
He hadn't forgotten his promise to Guy.
Hearing this, the Elder raised a curious brow.
"This ointment is precious, but if you need it, we have plenty."
"Are you selling it to Might Guy to form a bond with him?"
Ryosuke's face lit up with joy upon hearing the supply was sufficient. He then answered his grandfather's question, "Of course, building a connection with him is important. After all, he's destined to become Konoha's strongest taijutsu user in the future."
Although Guy was just a chunin now, with no great reputation yet.
The Elder stared deeply at his grandson, whose expression betrayed no insincerity.
Might Guy's father, Might Duy, had opened the Eight Gates in the Third Shinobi War and killed four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Gaining dozens of times his usual strength, at the cost of his life.
His grandson must have noticed the potential of Guy's taijutsu, which is why he approached him.
For a moment, the Elder wasn't sure how to feel. He spoke with concern, "You don't plan on learning the Eight Gates technique, do you? That jutsu is extremely dangerous."
Seeing his grandfather's furrowed brow, Ryosuke naturally understood his worries and smiled reassuringly as he replied,
"Grandfather, you're wise. I do indeed want to learn the Eight Gates technique. Although it's dangerous, as long as I don't open the final gate, there won't be any life-threatening risks."
Of course, he had no plans to open the final gate—he hadn't lived enough yet. Unless his body reached a point where opening the gate would no longer carry the risk of death.
Hearing his grandson's promise, the Elder's brow relaxed slightly. From what he knew,
Might Duy had only died after opening the final gate, his body covered in red steam.
As long as his grandson avoided the final gate, the jutsu, though still risky, could save his life in critical situations.
In the current climate, with tensions between the Uchiha clan and the village escalating, having this ability to protect himself brought the Elder some peace of mind.
The next morning, Ryosuke woke up to find his body fully recovered.
Rolling his shoulders left and right, he felt no pain at all.
Murmuring to himself, "Looks like I can go take another beating today."
He had grown fond of being beaten—not only did it enhance his physical attributes, but it also improved his taijutsu combat skills during sparring sessions.
A day without getting beaten now felt incomplete.
After a quick wash, he went to Ichiraku Ramen for a bowl of steaming hot ramen, then started searching for Guy.
However, after searching the entire village, he couldn't find any trace of him.
He realized that Guy was probably away on a mission.
While Ryosuke could rely on his connections to avoid work at the police force, Guy was a civilian ninja who had to complete missions to make a living.
With no one to spar with, Ryosuke reluctantly returned to the clan grounds and headed into a nearby forest.
Without a sparring partner, he had no choice but to train alone.
He avoided provoking other ninjas. Unlike Guy, they might not hold back, risking serious injuries—a reckless move.
Although solo training offered smaller gains, it was still progress.
He began by jogging around the forest, completing 33 laps—a total of 10 kilometers—to enhance his endurance and cardiovascular strength.
Then, he performed 100 push-ups to build his muscle strength, endurance, and explosiveness.
Next, he did 100 sit-ups, targeting his abs and further improving his endurance.
Finally, he did 100 squats to strengthen his leg muscles, increase power, and boost his stamina and cardiovascular fitness.
This was none other than Saitama's training method from One Punch Man.
In his previous world, this method might not have created a superhuman. But in the Naruto world, it could potentially lead to One Punch Man-level strength.
In the original story, Might Guy displayed invincible strength after opening the Seventh Gate.
After completing his training, Ryosuke collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily and sweating profusely.
Then, a voice from the system echoed in his mind.
[Strength +1, Speed +1, Stamina +1.]
Hearing the system's feedback, Ryosuke was elated. Though his attributes had only increased by one point each, he could already feel his muscles becoming firmer.
A warm sensation spread through his body, easing his muscle soreness significantly. Having measurable feedback proved that this training method could indeed make him as powerful as One Punch Man.
Saitama could punch air to generate shockwaves. Similarly, in this world, Might Guy's Daytime Tiger in the Seventh Gate was a taijutsu move capable of creating a shockwave-like effect.
If Ryosuke could deal with genjutsu as well, countering those two traitors would be much simpler—after all, he had the Sharingan.
As long as he kept increasing his Sharingan's power, he'd become nearly immune to genjutsu. With his improving physical attributes, he'd be a well-rounded warrior in no time.
