Chapter 598: Wind Dragon Breaks Through the Dark Clouds (asking for monthly tickets)

Sōsuke had short brown hair and wore a long white robe, with a gentle smile on his face.

Roshi had a feeling that even if no one told him this was Sōsuke, he would still recognize him.

It had nothing to do with his appearance; the main thing was that Sōsuke possessed a certain aura, which Roshi found hard to describe, but he felt it was precisely the aura a Ninja Master should have.

As Muzuki walked onto the platform, the separated crowd gathered again.

“But in this environment, what if it rains?”

Shifting his gaze from Sōsuke, Roshi looked at the pale grey clouds that covered the sun.

He didn’t mind not having a seat, but teaching outdoors in the Land of Rain, based on Roshi’s experience over the past few days, easily led to getting drenched.

“Hello everyone, I am Sōsuke, and I will be teaching you again this time.” Muzuki scanned the crowd with a smile and said.

Hearing Sōsuke’s voice, Roshi shifted his gaze back to Sōsuke.

Compared to him, a foreigner, Sōsuke should understand the weather in the Land of Rain better.

“There are still ten minutes until the official class begins. During this time, I will randomly select Ninja, and the selected Ninja can ask me one question about their training.” Muzuki surveyed the crowd, found no issues, and continued.

He would not start the class early, but Muzuki didn’t mind giving a small benefit to those who arrived early.

The Ninja below the stage all brightened, feeling that getting up early was worth it.

This was a one-on-one consultation service from a Ninja Master; it wasn’t something you could necessarily buy with money.

Muzuki casually pointed to a Amegakure Ninja, then asked the other Ninja to remain silent for a moment.

“Me?” The Amegakure Ninja who was pointed to didn’t expect to be the lucky one.

He had thought the one chosen would be the Grass Ninja next to him, as although their Amegakure was an ally of the Shinobi Sect, they rarely interacted, making their relationship somewhat awkward.

It was only when Muzuki gently struck him with a soft current of air that the Rain Ninja confirmed he was the one called upon.

The Rain Ninja subconsciously looked at Hanzō, who was a bit further ahead of him.

His position only allowed him to see Hanzō’s profile. Seeing that Hanzō’s expression hadn’t changed, the Rain Ninja felt relieved and, after some thought, said:

“Can you explain some techniques for Water Release Chakra Nature Transformation? Everyone says Water Release is suitable for Nature Transformation, but I always encounter problems with unstable forms.”

“When performing Chakra Nature Transformation, you cannot completely ignore Chakra Nature Transformation. Different natures of Chakra cannot apply the same Nature Transformation method.”

Muzuki first explained the reason, and then demonstrated three different types of Chakra Nature Transformation.

The Rain Ninja repeatedly thanked him, and the other Ninja who trained in Water Release also showed thoughtful expressions.

Next, Muzuki called upon an Iwagakure Ninja and answered his question.

Most Iwagakure Ninja trained in Earth Release, so this time Muzuki used Earth Release Chakra Nature Transformation to answer the other party’s question.

The third Ninja called was a Grass Ninja who trained in Fire Release.

Muzuki did indeed call names randomly, but he wasn’t completely disorderly; he limited the Chakra Nature, calling one person for each Chakra Nature, so that all Ninja attending the lecture could benefit.

Nature Transformation and Chakra Nature Transformation are the cornerstones of the Chakra system; Ninja like Might Guy, who only train in Taijutsu, are an extreme minority.

At first, no one noticed this, until the fourth Ninja with a different Nature appeared, and they realized that every Ninja called upon trained in a different Nature of Ninjutsu.

Many Ninja admired him, secretly thinking, ‘As expected of Ninja Master Sōsuke, he even considered so much for a random roll call.’

Some were also curious about how Sōsuke could accurately call upon Ninja who trained in different Natures.

Although most Iwagakure Ninja trained in Earth Release, there were also Ninja who trained in other Ninjutsu. What if he called an Iwagakure Ninja who trained in Fire Release? Wouldn’t that be a bit awkward?

“Well-deserved indeed.” Roshi sighed in his heart.

In just ten minutes of answering questions, Sōsuke’s Ninjutsu and lecturing skills were fully displayed. What Roshi appreciated most was Sōsuke’s comfortable way of handling things.

If Sōsuke had started the lecture early because most people arrived early, it would have been unfair to the Ninja who arrived exactly on time.

Since the lecture time was set by Sōsuke, and they weren’t late, missing a part of the lecture content would be unfair to them.

This kind of extracurricular extension was not a problem; it benefited those who arrived early without affecting the official class.

Moreover, Sōsuke truly randomly called names. Among the five Ninja, there were those from large villages, small villages, and even unaligned Ninja.

“Everyone, please quiet down a bit. We will now officially begin the class. This morning’s main content is Fire and Wind Release Chakra Nature Transformation.” When it was time for class, Muzuki coughed twice and said.

The sounds of the previously lively crowd instantly quieted down significantly, becoming more and more silent until no one was speaking.

Because among these thousands of Ninja, most had attended the first unrestricted lecture; they understood the rules and cherished this opportunity. Those who didn’t understand the rules also dared not make noise under the influence of this atmosphere.

Boom!

At this moment, a huge thunderclap suddenly sounded, and dazzling white lightning illuminated the dark clouds.

Drip.

Immediately after, raindrops began to fall from the sky.

Rain is a very common occurrence in the Land of Rain. The Land of Fire might not have fire falling, but the Land of Rain truly rains frequently.

Many Ninja looked at Sōsuke, quietly waiting for him to speak.

This situation did not occur during the previous unrestricted lecture. Although it wasn’t a week of continuous Great Sunny Day, it had never rained during lecture time.

If they were ordinary people, upon seeing the sudden downpour, they might frantically run home at this moment.

However, everyone present was a Ninja. Some of them had undergone various rigorous training, and some had completed life-threatening missions. This sudden situation was merely a minor issue for them.

Roshi also looked at Sōsuke with curiosity.

Although getting a little wet from the rain was not a big problem for Ninja, he felt that Sōsuke should not do nothing and let everyone listen to the lecture while getting drenched.

Muzuki looked up at the sky, silently switching from Rock Breathing to Wind Breathing, concentrating his breathing to enter Wind Breathing Chakra Mode.

He never planned his lessons according to the weather, because no matter how heavy the rain, he had a way to deal with it.

Swoosh!

Muzuki unleashed his Chakra and suddenly leaped up. The strong winds accompanying the heavy rain made his white robe flap loudly.

Then, Muzuki formed hand signs in the air, completing three signs at an extremely fast speed.

Originally, he didn’t need to form hand signs, but to make it harder for his two identities, Hayate Mugetsu and Sōsuke, to be discovered, Muzuki usually pretended to form hand signs.

“Wind Release: Vacuum Hurricane!”

After Muzuki completed the Dragon hand sign, he instantly exhaled the Wind Release Chakra that had already undergone Nature Transformation.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!

A white storm dragon was exhaled by Muzuki. A terrifying hurricane swept through the entire area. The Ninja on the ground had to use Chakra to stand firm and avoid being blown away.

Roar!

A furious roar sounded, and the white storm dragon rushed into the dark clouds.

The next moment, a gap appeared in the dark clouds.

The sunlight from the blazing sun shone through the gap onto Muzuki, who was descending, drawing all eyes in the field to him alone.

Immediately after, there was another loud noise in the air, and the Ninja standing on the ground suddenly felt the brightness of the world increase by several levels.

They looked up at the sky again, only to see the blazing sun hanging high, and the dark clouds had disappeared to who knew where.

“Let’s continue the class. This morning, I will mainly discuss Fire and Wind Release Chakra Nature Transformation.” After landing, Muzuki said with a calm smile, as if nothing had just happened.

Although Muzuki merely briefly repeated what he had said before, the Wind Release Ninja present all looked at Muzuki with fervent expressions.

They weren’t sure how strong Fire Dragon Dance was, but that Wind Release just now was truly powerful; even from such a distance, it could affect them on the ground.

“He actually mastered such a powerful Wind Release Ninjutsu!” Hanzō’s expression remained unchanged on the surface, but inwardly he was incredibly surprised.

Although Hanzō himself wasn’t particularly skilled in Wind Release, he had fought against experts specializing in Wind Release.

Sōsuke’s Wind Release, in terms of range and power, was the best Hanzō had ever seen among Wind Release Ninja.

Hanzō truly didn’t understand how Sōsuke did it. Did Sōsuke have a hundred hours in a day?

He looked at most in his late twenties or early thirties, yet he mastered seven Chakra Nature Transformations, and the level of these seven Natures was not poor; the ones he was highly skilled in were exceptionally high.

“Is Fire Release truly his most proficient Ninjutsu?” Hanzō wondered in his heart.

Before, he had firmly believed this, after all, it was a terrifying Fire Release that could even suppress his Water Release in a disadvantageous situation.

Now, Hanzō truly couldn’t be 100% certain. The Wind Release Sōsuke just performed didn’t feel as strong as Fire Dragon Dance, but who could guarantee that Sōsuke used his full power?

It wasn’t a battle; it was just dispersing rain clouds.

Hanzō didn’t continue to dwell on it. If the truth was as he imagined, it would be too terrifying.

Soon, everyone was immersed in the lesson, no longer thinking about other things.

When it was time for the midday break, Roshi was still engrossed, his mind filled with the content of Sōsuke’s lecture.

“If I had a teacher like him from a young age, I would be at least twice as strong as I am now.” Roshi sighed in his heart.

He didn’t know Wind Release, but he did train in Fire Release.

His strongest combat method, Scorch Release, was a Bloodline Limit created by combining Fire Release and Earth Release Chakra.

“He’s truly skilled; I even find it quite interesting.” Four-Tails agreed.

Four-Tails was born with Scorch Release and had not trained in any Ninjutsu. After attending Muzuki’s class, he even felt like practicing Fire Release for fun.
