Naruto: Starting With Three Tomoe Sharingan, Girlfriend Kushina

Soon, Yamazaki Akira carefully read the story's beginning and outline.

"Collecting seven dragon balls to summon a divine dragon... The story is fresh and very appealing. The main and supporting characters are also fun and interesting... Did you really come up with all this yourself?"

Yamazaki Akira couldn't help but praise.

Compared to other Japanese or Konoha comics, Dragon Ball was more suitable for spreading in the ninja world and easier for the younger generation to accept. This was something Ryun had carefully considered before putting pen to paper.

"Of course!"

Ryun stuffed his hands in his pockets, answering without hesitation.

"I never expected you to have such creativity... to write such a great work!"

Yamazaki Akira sighed repeatedly, feeling that this kid was a genius, naturally suited for this line of work.

"So, Uncle, are you interested in this story? If not, I'll have to find someone else to collaborate with..."

Ryun smiled as he spoke. If Yamazaki Akira wasn't interested, he could find others. With good stories, he wasn't worried about finding partners. Konoha Village had more than just this one bookstore or this one comic artist.

"I am interested, but are you sure you can continue this story? What if you suddenly stop writing... or mess it up later..."

Yamazaki Akira hesitated. He genuinely liked the story, but Ryun was too young, and he was afraid the latter might ruin it later.

"Don't worry, I guarantee the later parts will be just as exciting," Ryun said calmly.

He had full confidence in Dragon Ball.

"..."

"Then let's give it a try. Create one issue first and see how the market responds..."

Yamazaki Akira was a decisive person. He quickly settled on a series of follow-up agreements with Ryun.

He initially wanted to buy out the entire story outright, but Ryun wasn't keen on quick money and wanted to earn more, so he politely declined the offer.

"I have more stories. As long as you can update fast enough, we'll have plenty of opportunities to collaborate in the future..."

Ryun smiled faintly. For some talented comic artists, just giving them a complete main storyline outline was enough for them to create an excellent comic.

Ryun had watched plenty of anime in his past life, so copying a few stories was far too easy...

Dragon Ball, One Piece, Bleach, Digimon, Demon Slayer, Attack on Titan, Fairy Tail... Which one of these couldn't make money?

Copying a few out would be more than enough to make a living.

"Don't worry about that. I have a professional team behind me. We'll get Dragon Ball out as fast as possible..."

Ryun nodded and spent a long time discussing collaboration details with Yamazaki Akira.

In the Cherry Blossom Grove

"Pay attention to wind direction and speed. Keep your mindset calm. Your throwing motion should be smooth and natural, not too stiff..."

Shadow Clone Ryun personally taught Kushina the art of shurikenjutsu, while the real Ryun darted through the complex, ever-changing forest.

His feet left clear footprints on the cherry blossom trees as the chakra in his body rapidly depleted.

"Maintaining explosive speed while running on trees without leaving any damage or marks... This is too hard!"

Ryun sighed, looking at the footprints behind him.

This was the next stage of training for the Body Flicker Technique. To master this stage, one had to reach a state of "effortless control."

The first stage of Body Flicker training was about coordinating chakra with the body's explosive bursts.

The second stage was about controlling that explosive force.

It was said that mastering this stage to its peak could even allow one to step on air, achieving mid-air movement. This was the Body Flicker Technique that Might Dai had taught him.

Ryun didn't think Might Dai was exaggerating, because he had seen the original series and knew that opening the Eight Gates and unleashing the body's potential truly made this possible.

Might Guy's understanding of the Body Flicker Technique was extremely profound. In the original series, few were faster than him, and those who were could be counted on one hand.

And that was without opening the Eight Gates. Once the Eight Gates were activated, his speed surpassed even the Flying Thunder God Technique, so fast that even Six Paths Madara couldn't react in time.

The Body Flicker Technique was a high-level jutsu that only jonin could master, while the Body Flicker belonged to the realm of taijutsu. The latter was ten times harder to learn than the former.

The key was that the speed of the Body Flicker wasn't fixed. This technique grew stronger as the body did, with its upper limit determined by the user's physical strength.

Apart from these two techniques, there was also an advanced version of the standard Body Flicker: the Ninjutsu Body Flicker.

For example, Hanzo's Water Body Flicker, the Raikage's Lightning Body Flicker, or Namikaze Minato's Wind Body Flicker before he mastered the Flying Thunder God. There was also "Shunshin no Shisui's" unknown type of Body Flicker.

Those who mastered Ninjutsu Body Flickers were all famously fast and renowned figures.

Right now, Ryun couldn't access the standard Body Flicker, let alone the advanced Ninjutsu Body Flicker. The only teacher willing to train him was Might Dai.

Might Dai was a "forever genin" who couldn't use any ninjutsu, so he naturally didn't know the Body Flicker Technique. But he did know this Body Flicker.

Since Ryun wanted to grow stronger, he wouldn't pass up the chance to learn it.

Most ninjutsu and techniques could be learned through shadow clones, so he wasn't worried about being unable to learn ninjutsu or genjutsu in the future.

He wanted to be an all-around ninja, mastering ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu.

"Ryun, I want to learn the Shadow Clone Technique too. Teach me..." Kushina tugged at the shadow clone's arm, whining.

She hadn't expected Ryun to already know such a powerful jutsu.

A near-physical shadow clone—even most genin couldn't use this technique.

"I'll teach you nothing. You can't even get the basic Clone Technique right, and now you want to learn the Shadow Clone?"

Ryun rapped her stubborn head.

"Who says I can't do the Clone Technique? I'm just not that smooth yet. I only fail once or twice out of ten tries..." Kushina argued stubbornly.

Honestly, her level was already quite good among her peers, but Ryun believed it was far from enough.

"First, master shurikenjutsu. Then I'll teach you the 'tree-climbing' training. After that, I'll teach you the Shadow Clone Technique. Step by step. Don't aim too high too soon."

Ryun spoke seriously. He wasn't holding back and planned to teach this girl some real skills.

"What tree-climbing? Isn't climbing trees easy? Why do I need training for that? Why not just teach me the Shadow Clone now?"

Kushina tilted her head, confused.

"'Tree-climbing' isn't what you think it is... I told you, don't aim too high. Do you still want to learn shurikenjutsu or not?"

The shadow clone rapped her stubborn head again as punishment.

"Ouch... Fine, fine, I'll learn. I never said I wouldn't. Stop hitting my head, it'll make me stupid..."

Kushina covered her head, looking aggrieved.
