Because Ethan's move was too fast, Naruto was not injured by the poisonous claws of the Ghost Brothers, so he didn't need to bleed and detoxify, but he still couldn't escape Sasuke's ridicule.

It was precisely because of this ridicule that Naruto became harder. If Sasuke didn't speak, Ethan would consider whether to mock himself so that the "plot" could be brought back to the "right path".

Fortunately, Sasuke did not disappoint himself after all.

At the same time, after Dazna talked with Kakashi, Kakashi Haki decided to continue the mission.

From Kakashi's decision, we can guess that Konoha probably knew about the situation in Hatsunomiya for a long time, otherwise there would be no need to send Kakashi out specifically.

It is precisely because of the difficulty, danger and necessity of this mission that Naruto and Sasuke were brought along to let these two people receive real experience so that they can grow faster.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain Kakashi's decision.

In any case, the Seventh Squad and Ethan were still moving towards the Kingdom of Wa. Because the Ghost Brothers were killed by Ethan simply and neatly, Kakashi didn't have to interrogate these two people, and could only judge the situation from the equipment they carried on each other.

I didn't get much information, but this didn't affect anything. Now it's enough to just make sure that this mission is not that calm.

Naruto was full of energy again, while Sasuke remained silent.

Haruno Sakura was a little worried, but when she thought that Kakashi seemed to be a trustworthy teacher, and Ethan and Sasuke were very strong, there seemed to be no big danger.

In addition, the days that followed were indeed very peaceful, and I just rushed to the road every day and no enemies appeared again.

Gradually, Haruno Sakura no longer worried. In addition, Ethan often looks like he goes out for an outing, and he will take out some snacks from time to time. Even when he is camping, he will get some barbecue game, and this guy actually brings a full set of seasonings in his luggage. Is this guy really going out for an outing? How can ninja bring so many seasonings when he is on a mission?

Kakashi was also complaining about this in his heart. He felt that this student in Yama Castle Aoye seemed a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. In addition, Ethan was so innocent that he could not think about it in another direction, so he put this matter aside.

It was not until a little while together that Kakashi asked Ethan why he chose the short knife during a camping trip?

"Because you save energy."

It’s not surprising that you are young and weak, but ninjas don’t care whether you are a child or whether you are at a disadvantage when fighting.

"And I don't have many chakras, using weapons can save chakra."

Kakashi nodded. This was indeed a good choice. With Ethan's instant body technique, the ordinary Shinin was killed by him without even a chance to react.

But... I just became a ninja and thought of these things, isn't it a bit scary?

Kakashi didn't know whether it was scary or not, but in the days to come, he understood why Ethan was so strong.

He noticed that Ethan was practicing almost all the time, integrating all kinds of exercises into his daily life, such as catching wild game, practicing stealth, concealment, detection, hidden weapon throwing, and even chasing.

To clean up wild game is to practice the fine control of chakra. Even when cooking and resting, he will appropriately use earth escape ninjutsu to create an "oven" and a rest camp that shelters from the wind, etc.

Kakashi watched with his own eyes the originally twisted and rough oven and the camp slowly becoming more refined.

Diligence and hard work combined with the already good talent, it is unreasonable to be not strong.

Seeing all this was not only Kakashi, but many of Ethan's behaviors also deeply stimulated Sasuke and Naruto. They never thought that they could practice like this.

"You are so awesome because you insist on this practice?"

“Before Mr. Aoba became my instructor, there wasn’t so much I could practice.”

“…”

Naruto didn't realize what it meant, but Sasuke understood.

Ethan's origin made him unable to access too much ninja knowledge. All the things he could learn were the basic knowledge taught by the Ninja School.

So when he was competing with himself, he only used physical skills because he didn't have too much ninjutsu. During those years, Ethan could only practice those basics and hone his body.

"This is how your physical skills are trained?"

"almost."

Much different! Ethan's physical skills are a comprehensive product with countless years of combat experience and powerful qualities, just displayed bit by bit.

But Sasuke didn't know that he thought he had finally discovered the truth: no matter how talented a person is, he has to work hard to become stronger. He was not as good as Ethan before, and the biggest problem was that he was far inferior to Ethan's hard work.

As for talent? The Uchiha family's ninjas are naturally superior to ordinary people's talents, and he firmly believes in this.

In addition, what Ethan said casually made Sasuke and Naruto discover an embarrassing fact: the large number of low-level tasks that Kakashi had arranged before actually had the intention of honing their basic skills in secret. Unfortunately, no one in the seventh class understood this level.

"But...what is the use of those basic skills?"

Naruto felt that it would be great if he knew those things, and repeated training was useless.

In fact, Sasuke's idea is similar, but his background and personal talent make his basic skills slightly better than Naruto.

As for Sakura Haruno? Her basic skills are very solid, but due to her own talent and her lack of finding the right development route, she is unable to show the benefits of solid basic skills.

"It's a benefit..."

Ethan thought about it and felt that he had almost done the preview along the way, and it was time to show off a little.

So he put a hand behind his back and quickly completed the seal with just his right hand.

"Tiu Escape-Tiu Flow Wall!"

Without slapping the ground with his hands, a heavy earth wall two meters high immediately rose in front of Ethan.

One-handed seal?

This time, not only Sasuke and Naruto were shocked, but even Kakashi was shocked.

One-handed sealing is not only a matter of basic skills, but also requires talent.

There have been countless genius ninjas in the ninja world over the years, but those who can complete one-handed seals and do not affect the quality of ninjutsu are extremely rare at any time.

There have been countless geniuses over the years, and those people cannot make one-handed seals, so one-handed seals require not only solid basic skills, but also strong control over chakra and a thorough understanding of ninjutsu, but also extremely strong ninjutsu talent!

The last genius with Konoha having this talent was Uchiha Sasuke's brother.

"So amazing. Can you release ninjutsu with one hand?"

Naruto didn't know the meaning of it. He just thought it was handsome to do it, but after trying it himself, he found that he couldn't do it at all, even the most basic ninjutsu he couldn't let go of it.

"Fanny, if it's so simple, why do those young ninjas still use both hands to make seals?"

Sasuke knew the difficulty, so he didn't pursue one-handed seals. He paid more attention to Ethan's next words.

"A good enough basic skills can make you faster and more accurate when releasing ninjutsu, less likely to be interrupted, and more saving chakra. Most importantly, excellent basic skills can make you learn new ninjutsu faster."

He also said that excellent chakra control is the basis for the ninja to move freely in any terrain, and his words also made Kakashi start teaching these students to practice climbing trees in advance.

Compared to the last battle sharpening guns that followed, they had plenty of time to practice this time. The distance from Konoha to Haku is not close, and they will not be directly mentioned like watching anime when they walk.

So when they walked to the beach, in addition to the already strong basic skills, Naruto, who had extremely poor control over chakra, could hang upside down on the trunk of the tree.

This has no substantial impact on the battle that will break out in the future, but the purpose of this mission is to let these two people grow up. Unexpectedly, Ethan's addition has this effect.

From this perspective, this mission has made a sure profit and no loss.

Taking advantage of the heavy fog weather to enter the Kingdom of Wave by boat. Coming here means that you have entered the enemy's sphere of influence, and battles may occur at any time.

Several young people put away their previous relaxed attitude and carefully observed the situation around them.

Naruto was still shocked and shot randomly with the shuriken and successfully killed a rabbit.

After Kakashi noticed that it was snow rabbit, he immediately realized that the enemy was nearby. Ethan had discovered Zaibuzhan, who was hiding in the dark. After he hesitating for a moment, he pulled out Kuwu and shot him.

I almost forgot that he has an amazing talent for perception in his setting!

Naruto could even find out about the other party, but he was blocked by the Snow Rabbit substitute. There was no reason why he was not even as good as Naruto, although Naruto looked more like a shitty luck.

Due to Ethan's sudden attack, Aibu Sword was unable to arrogantly fly out as a hidden weapon, and then stepped on the sword that was chopped into the tree trunk, looking down at everyone from a high point.

Compared to the original show-off appearance, he could only stand on the ground to confront Ethan and others.

"Tsk, I was actually discovered by a little devil."

Zabuzhan glared at Ethan a few unhappy eyes and found that the little ghost opposite him didn't look at him directly, but instead held his arms and looked around.

“…”

When Kakashi determined the other party's identity, he decisively pushed the forehead that covered his eyes upwards, revealing his left eye that had been covered.

This action also attracted the attention of Zabuzhu.
Chapter completed!
