Chapter 267: Konoha's Strongest Physical Technique
"I didn't expect to become teammates with you, Guy. My luck is really good." Shiranui Genma said to Might Guy, whom he met on the way to the training ground.
Compared to classmates with ordinary strength, Shiranui Genma naturally wanted to be teammates with strong people like Obito and Might Guy.
On one hand, it meant having reliable teammates for future missions, and on the other, he could ask them for advice during daily training.
"Can I ask you some questions about Taijutsu in the future?" Shiranui Genma asked with a smile.
"Of course, no problem." Might Guy replied, giving a thumbs up. He was someone who was happy to share.
Then the two arrived at the training ground and saw Ebisu waiting there.
"Ebisu, good morning." Shiranui Genma raised his hand and greeted the familiar Ebisu.
Ebisu also responded to Shiranui Genma.
"Strange, where is our instructor? The meeting point should be here." Shiranui Genma looked around, puzzled.
"The meeting point is here. Perhaps something delayed him." Ebisu nodded in response.
"Youth should seize every minute and every second. Let's train while we wait." Might Guy dropped down and began doing one finger push ups, then invited Shiranui Genma and Ebisu to join him.
"Haha, I'll pass. My stamina isn't as strong as yours, Guy. Let's wait for the instructor to arrive and see the situation." Shiranui Genma politely declined Might Guy's suggestion.
Although training had no downsides, it was their first time meeting the instructor and he did not know what kind of training they would do. He felt it was better to conserve his stamina for now.
Ebisu had similar thoughts to Shiranui Genma, so he also declined Might Guy's suggestion and waited in place.
After about five minutes, a middle aged man wearing a yellow tracksuit and yellow tights entered their sight, slowly walking towards them while eating a rice ball.
"Are you Shiranui Genma, Ebisu, and Might Guy?" When he reached them, the middle aged man had almost finished his rice ball and asked.
"I am Shiranui Genma."
"I am Ebisu."
"I am Might Guy!" Guy did a backflip, landed, and replied with a wide, toothy grin.
"Do you all know each other?" The middle aged man asked again.
The three nodded; they were friends.
"Then let's skip the self introductions. My name is Chen, you can call me Teacher Chen. I will not say much more, because if you cannot pass my training, you will return to the Ninja School to study again." Teacher Chen said directly.
"Ah, return to the Ninja School to study again?" Shiranui Genma was stunned. Their homeroom teacher had not mentioned such training during graduation. How could officially graduated Genin be sent back for re education?
"Teacher Chen?" Ebisu suddenly thought of something, the eyes behind his sunglasses showing surprise.
Unlike other students, Ebisu, though still at the Academy, enjoyed paying attention to matters outside of school. If he remembered correctly, there was a Teacher Chen who was said to be Konoha's strongest Taijutsu Ninja.
"It cannot be that Teacher Chen, right? If it is, I must pass the training!" Ebisu was a little excited.
He believed that one's birth largely determined one's strength, but a good teacher could influence future prospects. Even if he was only the strongest in Taijutsu, he was still much better than an ordinary teacher.
"That is right. If you fail my training, I will revoke your Ninja status and send you back to the Ninja School. This is the authority I have as an instructor." Teacher Chen said indifferently.
He had not been an instructor for a long time, only occasionally taking on a disciple to teach, lest his Taijutsu have no successor.
However, Hiruzen had said that an unprecedented Taijutsu genius had appeared in the Ninja School this time, which was why he agreed to become an instructor again for Hiruzen.
Teacher Chen was no longer a young man. Although Hiruzen spoke highly of this student, he still planned to personally test the level of this so called Taijutsu genius. If he was not up to par, he would send him directly back to the Ninja School and resign from his instructor position.
"What kind of training is it?" Might Guy asked calmly.
He had full confidence in his strength. Even his close friend, who had long since become a Chunin, had been defeated by him. Training for Genin would not be difficult for him.
"Bell snatching. As long as one of you can snatch the bell from my hand, then all of you pass. If you do not snatch it by nightfall, then prepare to spend another year at the Ninja School." Teacher Chen took out a bell and said.
He was too lazy to play mind games. As long as they showed him satisfactory strength, he would pass them. If not, they would all be sent back for re education.
"You can use any means to attack me, but let me warn you in advance, do not attack recklessly. I am best at Taijutsu, and hitting people hurts a lot." Teacher Chen said leisurely after sitting on the ground.
After speaking, Teacher Chen took out a book with a cover featuring a lightly dressed older sister and began to read.
Shiranui Genma pulled Ebisu and Might Guy aside to discuss a strategy.
"What should we do? He does not seem to be joking. If we do not complete it, we might really have our Ninja status revoked and be sent back to the Ninja School." Shiranui Genma said with a serious expression.
Although Teacher Chen did not have a serious, stern face when he spoke and instead appeared relaxed and casual, Shiranui Genma felt that Teacher Chen would truly do as he said.
"Let us do our best to complete it. If we can become Teacher Chen's disciples, we will not have to worry about our future prospects. He is known as Konoha's strongest Taijutsu Ninja." Ebisu revealed the information he knew to the two.
"Ah, the strongest Taijutsu Ninja?" Shiranui Genma looked at Teacher Chen, who was not far away, reading a book and letting out an unknown chuckle, and showed a skeptical expression.
He did not think Teacher Chen looked like a Taijutsu Ninja at all. First, his height was not much taller than theirs. As nine year old children, they guessed he was only about one and a half meters tall, and he did not have muscles bulging under his clothes.
"Konoha's strongest Taijutsu!" Unlike Shiranui Genma, Might Guy's face instantly showed an excited expression upon hearing this. His dream was to become the strongest Taijutsu user in the Ninja World, and as Konoha's strongest Taijutsu user, Teacher Chen's Taijutsu must be extraordinary.
Ebisu adjusted his sunglasses with a finger and said, "There is no mistake. They call him Teacher Chen, and he said he is good at Taijutsu."
"Then is that not even worse? If he really is Konoha's strongest Taijutsu Ninja, then how can we snatch the bell from him?" Shiranui Genma said with a worried expression.
While having a strong instructor was a good thing, in this situation, it might not be.
"Just fight with all your might. Even if we fail, it just means we have not tried hard enough, and our youth has not burned fiercely enough." Might Guy gave a thumbs up, encouraging them.
Looking at Might Guy, Shiranui Genma regained some confidence. Although the instructor was strong, they also had an extraordinary companion on their side.
"That is true, but should we not first come up with some tactics or something?" Shiranui Genma thought for a moment and said.
"Let us set up some traps to lure him over, then Guy will be the main attacker, and we will assist Guy in the fight." Ebisu pondered for a moment and replied.
He knew very well that this training would depend on Guy. Although Shiranui Genma was stronger than him, it was only by a limited margin. Might Guy, on the other hand, had the strength to instantly defeat them, making him their undisputed trump card.
Then, while setting up traps, the three discussed their respective strengths. Shiranui Genma was good at using Ninja tools and Body Flicker Technique, Ebisu had balanced development with all abilities at a similar level, and Might Guy specialized in Taijutsu.
When they were almost ready, the three moved together to lure Teacher Chen into the trap area.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!
Ebisu and Shiranui Genma both pulled out Shuriken and threw them at Teacher Chen.
"Finally ready. That took quite a while." Teacher Chen unhurriedly closed his book and put it away. When the Shuriken were about to reach him, he suddenly burst into speed, flashing to dodge the incoming projectiles.
"So fast." Shiranui Genma began to believe that this not so tall, not so burly middle aged man was indeed Konoha's strongest Taijutsu user.
"Run, fast!" Ebisu's pupils contracted, and he quickly shouted.
He was worried that Teacher Chen's speed was too fast and that he would catch up before they reached the trap area.
Although Might Guy wanted to experience Teacher Chen's strength, he also knew that this training was very important, so he did not make a move recklessly. He followed Ebisu, keeping an eye on Teacher Chen's figure with his peripheral vision.
It was one thing if he himself did not become a Ninja, but if he caused his teammates to lose their Ninja status due to a rash move, Might Guy could not accept that.
"Let me see what tricks you have prepared." Teacher Chen did not chase at full speed but maintained a subtle distance, following them.
Upon reaching the location, Ebisu immediately activated the traps, and a large number of Shuriken shot towards Teacher Chen.
Teacher Chen ignored the incoming Shuriken, swept his gaze over the scene, and his expression showed some disappointment.
"Is that all?"
"Leaf Dragon God!"
Teacher Chen unleashed his full Chakra, spinning at high speed. A massive whirlwind appeared out of nowhere, gradually forming into a thick, green giant dragon.
Under the powerful force of the dragon shaped tornado, Might Guy and the others' Shuriken traps were easily destroyed, and the massive whirlwind continued to rage, rapidly tearing apart all the traps in the area.
Clatter!
Shiranui Genma's Kunai fell to the ground, and he looked at the ruined trap zone with a shocked expression.
"What is this? How can we snatch the bell like this…?" Shiranui Genma stared at the more than twenty meter tall green dragon in front of him, already thinking about how he would explain to his juniors why he was back at school.
He did not believe he could get past this terrifying hurricane and snatch Teacher Chen's bell with just a senbon or a Kunai, and he even thought Might Guy could not do it either.
"Is this the strength of Konoha's strongest Taijutsu user?" Ebisu looked at the terrifying tornado with immense surprise. He had never seen such a grand spectacle.
"What powerful Taijutsu. As expected of Konoha's strongest Taijutsu user!" Might Guy's face also showed some surprise, but even more excitement. He was very much looking forward to the upcoming battle.
Might Guy silently adjusted his breathing rhythm, concentrating his breath to its most focused state.
"Since traps are useless, then it is time for the Taijutsu beast to make his appearance!" Might Guy's face was full of fighting spirit, ready to make his move.
