In fact, Veigar was even more bewildered than Might Guy at this moment. He had heard every word of Shizune Kato's quiet curse before she left.
One had to know, although Veigar's current body was that of a child, his heart and soul were those of an adult.
Shizune Kato's words just now were like a super critical hit to Veigar, and at the same time, it gave him a deeper understanding of how precocious children in this world were.
"What kind of messy things are these kids thinking in their heads nowadays, it's unbelievable..."
Veigar grumbled inwardly, speechless.
The next day.
After another passionate Running Race with Might Guy, Veigar appeared at Training Ground 44 on time.
Before long, Kakashi Hatake also arrived. After a few exchanges, Minato Namikaze appeared beside them.
"Teacher Minato, good morning!"
Veigar and Kakashi Hatake politely greeted Minato Namikaze.
"Good morning, Veigar, Kakashi."
Minato Namikaze's face was full of smugness, as if something very satisfying had happened to him.
Immediately after, Minato Namikaze continued, "The day before yesterday, I said I had prepared a gift for you.
"How is it, are you looking forward to it?"
Speechless, Veigar and Kakashi Hatake exchanged a glance, as if they had reached some kind of agreement, and simultaneously shook their heads, responding in unison, "Not looking forward to it!"
"Uh..."
Their answers made Minato Namikaze instantly awkward. He scratched his head speechlessly and said, "Alright, since you're not looking forward to it, then I won't Beat Around the Bush anymore."
"Today, I'm going to teach you each a ninjutsu."
"How about that, are you happy now!"
However, Veigar and Kakashi Hatake's reactions once again exceeded Minato Namikaze's expectations.
Kakashi Hatake calmly replied, "Mm, I basically guessed it."
Veigar also responded with a calm expression, "Then what Wind Style Ninjutsu will you teach me, Teacher?"
At this moment, Minato Namikaze had the urge to grab Veigar and Kakashi Hatake and beat them up.
These two kids were indeed a bit Annoying.
However, Minato Namikaze did not act on it in the end. Instead, he took out a scroll and handed it to Kakashi Hatake, saying, "Kakashi, this scroll is something Sakumo asked me to give to you at the right time. It contains the ninjutsu I'm teaching you this time."
"However, since I don't know Lightning Style Ninjutsu, you'll have to train yourself with the ninjutsu recorded here."
"If there's anything you don't understand, you can wait until Sakumo is home and consult him."
With a little excitement, Kakashi Hatake held out his hands to receive the Ninjutsu Scroll from Minato Namikaze, then said solemnly, "Thank you, Teacher."
Afterward, Kakashi Hatake looked at Minato Namikaze and said, "Then, Teacher, I'll go train nearby."
Minato Namikaze replied, "Go ahead!"
After Kakashi Hatake left, Minato Namikaze said to Veigar, "Veigar, come with me."
"Yes, Teacher."
Veigar quickly replied, glanced at Kakashi Hatake who had walked off to the side alone, and then followed behind Minato Namikaze into the forest.
Passing through the forest, Minato Namikaze led Veigar to the high slope of Training Ground 44. Blowing in the gentle cool breeze, Minato Namikaze turned around to look at Veigar and said, "This is it."
"Here?"
Veigar asked in surprise.
At the same time, he looked around and didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
Minato Namikaze nodded and said, "That's right, it's here."
"The ninjutsu I'm going to teach you next is called Great Breakthrough Technique, a ninjutsu with strong combat effectiveness."
"The wind here can also help you train."
As he spoke, Minato Namikaze showed a look of Memory. It was in this very spot that he had first been taught a ninjutsu by Jiraiya.
Finally having the chance to learn a new ninjutsu, Veigar was very excited at this moment. He quickly nodded and replied, "Yes, thank you, Teacher."
"I will train very hard."
Minato Namikaze nodded with satisfaction, then began to teach Veigar the Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique.
Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique is not a ninjutsu that primarily focuses on lethality. It is mainly a technique where the practitioner performs hand seals and then exhales wind from their mouth, which can blow away or disperse enemies or objects, thus achieving a control effect.
Although the lethality of Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique was a bit weak, Veigar was very fond of this technique.
Because Veigar already possessed the attack methods of swordsmanship and the ninjutsu Rasengan, what he temporarily lacked was not ninjutsu with powerful attack power, but rather ninjutsu that focused on support, control, recovery, and illusion.
Otherwise, even if he learned a powerful ninjutsu that could destroy the world, destroy the earth, and blow away the air, if he couldn't even hit the enemy, the technique's effect would be almost zero.
Ninjutsu that leaned towards the supportive side could allow Veigar to adapt to various combat environments and combat situations, and sometimes it could even turn the tide of battle.
And the current Wind Style: Great Breakthrough Technique was a relatively ideal ninjutsu for Veigar.
After a day of careful instruction from Minato Namikaze, Veigar had initially learned how to perform hand seals, condensing wind in his mouth. However, to successfully master the Great Breakthrough Technique, he would still need some time to train.
In the blink of an eye, over a week had passed.
During these days, Veigar and Kakashi Hatake had not been sent on any ninja missions. Veigar was quite content with this leisure time, watching his own progress in training day by day, which made him very happy.
However, this brief period of leisure time had come to an end.
Because Minato Namikaze had received a new mission.
"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough."
After forming the hand seals, Veigar opened his mouth and blew, instantly unleashing a strong gust of wind that made the trees in the open wooded area rustle loudly.
"Veigar, you've learned Wind Style: Great Breakthrough in just a few days. It seems you've eaten well these past few days!"
As soon as Veigar finished releasing the ninjutsu, he heard Minato Namikaze's voice. He immediately turned his head to look.
Seeing Minato Namikaze, whose presence had been absent for several days, Veigar respectfully greeted him, "Teacher Minato."
"My ability to quickly learn Wind Style: Great Breakthrough is all thanks to your excellent teaching, Teacher."
At the same time, Veigar was also reflecting on himself. It was obvious that Minato Namikaze had been here for quite some time, yet he hadn't noticed at all. This was truly inexcusable.
Even in the relatively safe Konoha, he should maintain vigilance.
Minato Namikaze shook his head and replied, "This has little to do with me as a teacher. It's all the result of your diligent training."
