Naruto: Strength Through Teaching

Chapter 105: Flame Breathing Sensation

The next training stage involves guiding the breath by adjusting body posture to achieve different strengthening effects.

In the original breathing technique, this stage trains different breath-style techniques. After modification, there's no longer a need to wield a sword, so it has transformed into various strengthening effects.

Because beginners are just starting to learn, specific postures are needed to guide the breath. Once mastered, one can freely control it within the body.

"Finally, the formal training begins." Obito couldn't help but celebrate with a punch in the air, relieved that there was finally some feedback after three days training.

Bang!

Mutsuki tapped Obito's head with two fingers and pointed to Shisui, who was still training, saying, "Don't disturb others' training. Focus on getting familiar with this feeling."

Obito closed his mouth, nodded, and with a satisfied smile, resumed his training.

Shisui's talent was comparable to Kakashi's, and he learned it before Shisui did, rounding it off as a win against Kakashi this time.

At the end of the third day of training, Shisui and Might Guy made no progress, while Obito grasped a bit of the sensation.

During Wednesday's practice, Shisui kept performing various movements while pondering about the breathing technique.

It was the first time he felt so helpless in approaching something.

During the break, Shisui saw Obito boasting about their Fire Release techniques with Asuma. After some thought, he walked over to Obito and asked,

"Obito, can you describe in detail the feeling of that breathing technique?"

Obito recalled for a moment and then began to describe, "It's like having a bowl of steaming hot ramen, a warm flow of air rushing through the whole body..."

Obito made an effort to depict his sensations, accompanied by explanatory gestures.

"Feeling a warm flow..." Shisui wore a contemplative expression.

Asuma on the side was a bit confused, feeling that the conversation between the two didn't quite match, especially Obito, who seemed to be talking about something incomprehensible.

Asuma didn't pay much attention to this little episode and, seeing Kurenai starting to train again, he joined her for practice.

Continuing on, Shisui kept thinking about Obito's answer, attempting to gain some inspiration. During the break, when going home for dinner, Shisui was contemplating whether to have ramen today.

"Shisui, what's the deal with the occasional foot pain when using the Body Flicker Jutsu?" Uchiha Tekka asked when he saw Shisui.

"I didn't feel a warm flow." Shisui replied with a somewhat absent-minded look on his face.

Just as Uchiha Tekka was puzzled, Shisui corrected himself, saying, "It should be that the Chakra in your feet wasn't controlled properly, causing the injury to your feet."

"Oh, I see. Shisui, what were you thinking just now? I called you twice before you responded," Uchiha Tekka curiously asked.

"I was thinking about training," Uchiha Shisui replied.

"No wonder those Genin who have already graduated are not your match. You're already so strong, yet you're constantly thinking about training." Uchiha Tekka exclaimed.

He felt a bit ashamed; this time, he ended up being the tail of the Uchiha clan. In Group A, there were three Uchiha members. During the strength test, Shisui and Obito took the top two positions, and in the third round, he was eliminated.

Shisui remained silent; he felt that Uchiha Tekka might have misunderstood him. Even someone like Guy wasn't constantly thinking about training. It was just because Flame Breathing had not been progressing that Shisui found himself in this state.

Let the misunderstanding be. Shisui chose not to explain. After going home and finishing dinner, he went to Mutsuki's place to continue practicing the breathing technique under Mutsuki's guidance.

The fourth day of practicing the breathing technique quickly came to an end, with a situation similar to the third day. Only Obito had a slight sensation.

It wasn't until the fifth day that a new change occurred. Shisui's Flame Breathing also showed a bit of Proficientcy level.

"Like the airflow of eating hot ramen..." Shisui felt Obito's description unexpectedly fitting. He could sense a flow of air being drawn in through his mouth, continuously circulating along hisvChakra meridians.

At the end of the fifth day of breathing technique training, only Guy had yet to achieve any proficientcy in the breathing technique, still diligently searching for the sensation.
