Chapter 29 Mastery Level Ninjutsu (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Muzuki fell into thought, looking at the three sudden messages.

He hadn’t expected the Master-Disciple System to have a function like cultivation missions.

So why hadn’t it appeared when he planned cultivation before? Could it only be triggered by disciples?

Even if it could only be triggered by disciples, some missions should have been triggered before, like Obito wanting to get first place in actual combat.

Muzuki guessed that these cultivation missions might have many restrictive conditions to be triggered, possibly related to trust levels and such.

Since it was the first time it was triggered, he couldn’t determine all the conditions. Currently, the only sure thing was that the disciple triggering the mission must have a sufficient ‘desire’ for the mission’s goal.

Looking at Obito’s eager and expectant eyes, Muzuki was very certain of this point.

“Muzuki-sensei, please agree to this one time. After I get first place, I’ll definitely complete the tasks you assign me twofold, and from now on, I’ll listen to you for all training plans,” Obito pleaded.

He still couldn’t forget how badly he lost to Kakashi in front of Rin on the day of the competition.

“Alright,” Muzuki nodded, looking helpless.

“Muzuki-sensei, you really are the best sensei in the world!” Obito was very excited when Muzuki agreed.

“Save the compliments for after you get first place,” Muzuki said, tapping Obito’s head with two fingers.

“Hehe, I’m just telling the truth,” Obito chuckled.

He had been in school for several years, didn’t he know what a good sensei was?

Muzuki had a good temper, his lectures weren’t boring and were easy to understand, and he was very good to his students. What else could such a sensei be but a good sensei?

“Then Muzuki-sensei, what Ninjutsu are you going to teach me?” Obito asked curiously.

“Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!” Muzuki said.

“I already know Great Fireball Technique! I used it in the last competition and only got twenty points,” Obito said, scratching his head helplessly.

During the previous competition, he used Great Fireball Technique to get twenty points and temporarily take first place. But then Kakashi came up and demonstrated his Earth Release: Earth Motion, controlling the entire field to rise and fall, directly getting a perfect score of thirty points.

“Don’t you want something with great power? Among the Fire Release you can currently learn, Great Fireball Technique has the most power,” Muzuki said, then walked to the river and quickly formed hand seals.

“Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!”

Muzuki gathered a large amount of Chakra, transforming all of it into flames through Nature Transformation the moment he exhaled, continuously spitting out raging fire.

The massive amount of flames formed a giant ten-meter-high fiery fireball. In front of such a huge fireball, even the 1.8-meter-tall Muzuki seemed small, not to mention Obito, Shisui, and the others, who looked even more shocked.

“It’s even stronger than the last time I saw it. What is Muzuki-sensei’s true strength?!” Shisui thought back to his first memory of going to Muzuki’s house.

That time, he accidentally saw Muzuki practicing Ninjutsu, which was also Great Fireball Technique, and it was very shocking, but this time it was even more shocking than the last.

Shisui instantly felt that Muzuki’s strength was unfathomable, and he might not even have used his full power just now.

“This… this is Great Fireball Technique?” Obito was dumbfounded, looking at the giant fireball taller than his house.

Compared to Shisui’s Great Fireball Technique, his could still be considered a small fireball. Compared to Muzuki’s, it was just a tiny spark from who knows where.

Obito found it hard to believe that Muzuki had just used the same Ninjutsu as him.

“It’s so big. If I encounter such Ninjutsu, I need to be faster and stronger,” Might Guy also sighed, looking up at the huge fireball.

The incomparably huge fireball crashed into the river, evaporating a large amount of water. In an instant, bursts of white mist emerged, enveloping the surroundings, and then quickly dissipated after Muzuki used Wind Release.

Muzuki exhaled lightly and smiled as he looked at Obito and asked, “How is it? Is the power of Great Fireball Technique enough?”

“Enough, enough! It looks too mighty!” Obito nodded like a pecking chick. If his Great Fireball Technique could be a quarter of Muzuki’s size, he should be able to win the competition.

Muzuki thought to himself, ‘Of course it’s mighty.’ That attack just now was very showy, and also very Chakra-consuming, directly burning a thousand points of his Chakra.

In normal combat, it would be impossible to use a Great Fireball Technique of this scale, because in same-level combat, this thing is indeed a bit hard to hit people with.

Muzuki remembered that in his previous life, some bored person seemed to have done a statistic, and then surprisingly found that in over seven hundred episodes, no matter who used Great Fireball Technique, it never hit a humanoid target.

With such an exaggerated record, it’s no wonder it was called the ‘Ninjutsu that can’t hit anyone.’

“Then you try it,” Muzuki said to Obito.

“Okay.” Obito nodded, walked to the river, quickly formed hand seals, and then suddenly blew out a stream of fire.

However, embarrassingly, Obito’s Great Fireball Technique was only the size of two human heads, a world of difference from the Great Fireball Technique Muzuki had just used.

“Obito, it’s okay, even a small one…”

“Might Guy, just spare me,” Obito directly interrupted his’spell,’ indicating he didn’t need his strange comfort.

“Do you know why your Great Fireball Technique is so different from mine?” Muzuki asked.

“Because I haven’t mastered it well?” Obito said somewhat uncertainly.

“There are three aspects. First, your Chakra control ability is too poor to properly utilize the limited Chakra you have.

Second, your Nature Transformation cultivation is too poor, preventing you from simultaneously transforming a large amount of Chakra into flames.

Third is that you haven’t mastered Great Fireball Technique well,” Muzuki summarized.

Then Muzuki took out a small booklet and handed it to Obito, saying:

“These are some of my experiences in cultivating Fire Release Chakra Nature Transformation. If you read, remember, and practice more according to this manual, you can solve the problem of Nature Transformation.”

Obito’s foundation was too far behind Shisui’s. Muzuki spent basically the first month helping Obito rebuild his foundation, and then taught him Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique along the way, so he hadn’t given the Nature Transformation manual to Obito yet.

If it weren’t for the sudden cultivation mission, Muzuki had planned to give it to him next semester.

After all, if Obito tried to learn too much at once, he really couldn’t.

【You gifted your disciple the Fire Release Chakra Nature Transformation Cultivation Manual. Due to your disciple’s immense gratitude, you received a great critical hit reward: Fire Release: Head Hardship (Mastery)】

Muzuki hadn’t expected Obito to be so effective, directly giving him a master-level Fire Release.

Head Hardship was not an ordinary Fire Release either. It was a B-rank Fire Release Ninjutsu performed by Kakuzu’s fire-attribute mask. Its power was quite extraordinary, and it could also be used in conjunction with the Wind Release: Pressure Damage he had previously drawn, instantly creating a sea of fire capable of burning down a forest.

A large amount of cultivation memories appeared in Muzuki’s mind. In an instant, Muzuki had an illusion that he seemed to be a Ninja who had quietly cultivated Head Hardship for thirty years in some unknown corner, cultivating only one Ninjutsu for thirty years, and mastering it to the point of effortless control.

“I’ll definitely read it every day!” Obito hugged the manual like a treasure.

“There’s one more thing: first, train your Chakra control ability,” Muzuki said with a smile.

Once Obito completed the basic tree-climbing and water-walking training, the enhanced water-walking training plan he had invented on Asuma would come in handy.

Although Obito didn’t know what Muzuki was thinking, he recalled the painful times on weekends and knew that it was most likely some extremely tormenting yet highly effective training plan.

However, now he could only puff out his chest and endure it, because this time he had asked for it himself.

It’s going on recommendation tomorrow. The time has come to decide the fate of this book…
