Teacher

It was impossible not to be excited about getting such a sword. Shiyu simply drew the Meteor Blade and lightly swung it at a tree. The massive, thick trunk was actually cut in two, demonstrating its sharpness!

Its sharpness was unparalleled in this world! If paired with a more suitable swordsmanship, it would surely be a nightmare for Shiyu's enemies! An extremely terrifying trump card.

"I shouldn't think about that anymore. Shiyu put those thoughts aside for now. The most important thing now is to return to Konoha. Shiyu was already starting to miss his sister, Xiao Xing.

After bidding farewell to the bearded Noguchi, Shiyu and his companions set off for Konoha.

The journey back was not as tense and exciting as the journey there. Even without encountering any enemies, Shiyu and his companions were still diligently improving their strength.

Nao and Kurenai had made further progress in controlling their Chakra. Now, they could walk freely on water.

In less than half a month, mastering water walking was something to be proud of. However, the companions knew that compared to Shiyu, they were still far behind.

While his companions practiced Chakra control, Shiyu naturally used the precious time on the return journey to continue familiarizing himself with his ninjutsu and practicing with his Meteor Blade, constantly swinging and chopping. Shiyu was certain that in the future, with his White Rinnegan, he would be able to easily pinpoint the vital points of his enemies' bodies and strike them heavily.

However, that would first require coordination with the Body Flicker Technique, preferably the Flying Thunder God Technique, along with a set of swordsmanship suited for him, and the locking ability of his White Rinnegan on the enemy.

Just thinking about it was terrifying.

However, Shiyu was not in a hurry about swordsmanship for the time being. The most important thing right now was to master the third stage of the Rasengan.

Shiyu practiced the Rasengan with Shadow Clones every day. He could already break a rubber ball with his Chakra, but he needed to go further and create a small typhoon in his hand.

"Focus."

"Focus."

"Focus."

"Begin!" Shiyu kept telling himself. He controlled his Chakra to the extreme, and the Chakra began to circulate in its own orbit, spinning in circles.

"Very good! Just like that! Keep going! Rotate with rules!" Shiyu encouraged himself. His mind was highly concentrated, and the Chakra in his hands was running perfectly. Under Shiyu's stable control, it grew larger and larger.

When it reached the size of a palm, Shiyu couldn't help but get excited. Although it wasn't large, Shiyu could feel the extremely terrifying compressed, high-density Chakra.

"I did it!" Shiyu was extremely excited. Then, looking at the tree trunk beside him, he shouted, "Rasengan!!!"

The Rasengan struck the tree trunk, instantly creating a huge spiral-shaped indentation. The entire tree began to creak, its leaves fluttered down, and the ground even seemed to tremble.

"Hah!" Shiyu increased the force in his hand again, and finally, the tree trunk was blown down. The trunk that crashed to the ground made a loud "dong" sound, scaring away countless birds.

Shiyu was extremely excited. He tried again, recapturing the feeling he had just had. The blue orb in his hand formed again!

"Success again!"

Shiyu tried more than ten times and finally remembered the feeling of the Rasengan.

"I succeeded! It seems I can basically master the Rasengan now! Now, I just need to stabilize the Chakra output and then use it in actual combat!" Shiyu was extremely excited. The A-rank ninjutsu, Rasengan, could be used without hand seals, making it already very powerful with good development prospects!

Because it could evolve into other advanced ninjutsu, such as the S-rank ninjutsu that infused wind-style Chakra—Wind Style: Rasenshuriken.

"This is a good start."

While traveling, Shiyu continued to familiarize himself with the Rasengan. As he got closer to Konoha, Shiyu could already form and dissipate the Rasengan at will.

"The most important thing is that, unlike Naruto, I only need one hand to release the Rasengan! This greatly increases its practicality in actual combat!"

"I understand the key. It seems the Rasengan isn't that difficult." Shiyu thought. Just as Shiyu was about to increase the Chakra output of the Rasengan to form a Great Ball Rasengan, Hizashi called out to Shiyu.

"Shiyu. Come here for a moment."

"Okay." Shiyu walked towards Hizashi.

"If I'm not mistaken, your Kekkei Genkai, meaning you've awakened your eyes, right?" Hyuga Hizashi suddenly asked, making Shiyu very wary.

"Teacher, why do you say that?" Shiyu asked.

"Yes. It's okay. If you've awakened your eyes, just tell me. There's no need to hide it. Within the Byakugan, I can see that your eyes are filled with Chakra flow. Are you trying to hide your strength to surprise your enemies?"

"It's fine. Next time you want to use the Sharingan, just use it directly! No need to use the Mist Technique to obscure your vision. My Byakugan can see you," Hyuga Hizashi said with a smile.

Knowing that Hyuga Hizashi thought he had awakened the Sharingan and had not noticed the presence of the White Rinnegan, Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know much about the Sharingan. But I know that the Three Tomoe Sharingan can copy ninjutsu and genjutsu. So, thinking about it, it makes sense that you've learned so many ninjutsu."

"Are you using copied techniques? You can instantly kill enemies in close combat. Does that mean you've also copied the Gentle Fist?"

"Teacher!" Shiyu was once again greatly astonished.

However, Hizashi shook his head and said, "Don't be nervous. I was just joking. The Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist, although a secret clan technique, can only unleash its true power when combined with the Byakugan!"

"Therefore, you don't need to be wary. After all, you possess the Sharingan. I don't know much about the Sharingan, otherwise, I could help you. Kekkei Genkai and secret techniques are very sensitive matters. Since you can copy them, it's a good thing for you."

"In the future, I can teach you the true Hyuga-style taijutsu. However, I hope you don't let anyone else from the Hyuga Clan know. If they do, I won't be able to help you anymore." Hizashi did not reprimand Shiyu severely. Instead, he was willing to guide Shiyu, allowing him to make the most of the copied Hyuga clan secret techniques.

This deeply moved Shiyu.

"Teacher Hizashi, just for this! You are a hundred times better than that Hiashi! I won't let you die!" Shiyu thought deeply, clenching his fists.

Shiyu knew that Hizashi would be used as a scapegoat for Hiashi in the future and commit suicide. Therefore, Shiyu wanted to change all of that.
