A Chance to Break Through

"Footwork?"

"You mean Basic Shatter Step?"

As soon as Mei Terumi finished speaking, Uchiha Yue was initially somewhat puzzled about when he had ever taught Mei Terumi any footwork. Then he quickly recalled that, when he had assisted Mei Terumi in fighting those Sunagakure ninja, he had inadvertently shown her how to use the Yagami Clan's secret technique, Basic Shatter Step, to evade the attacks of those Sunagakure ninja. Once he understood that, Uchiha Yue knew that what Mei Terumi wanted to ask about was the Yagami Clan's Basic Shatter Step.

Although Basic Shatter Step was a secret technique of the Yagami Clan, it was not particularly valuable to Uchiha Yue. Even if he truly taught it to Mei Terumi, it would not matter.

Thus, after coming to that realization, Uchiha Yue smiled at Mei Terumi and said, "Mei Terumi, the footwork you mentioned is actually the Yagami Clan of Kumogakure's secret technique, Basic Shatter Step. Back when you fought those two Sunagakure jonin, I accidentally revealed the method for cultivating Basic Shatter Step while assisting you in battle. I never expected your talent to be so high that, after merely learning its initial applications, you already knew how to use Basic Shatter Step in combat."

"Since you've asked about Basic Shatter Step now, I'll tell you the complete method for cultivating it."

"Besides, we're fighting those Sunagakure people right now, and we need to raise our strength as quickly as possible if we want to break out of the Land of Wind."

"If you can master Basic Shatter Step quickly and use it against those Sunagakure ninja, that would be even better!"

With that, Uchiha Yue smiled and nodded, preparing to explain the true mysteries of Basic Shatter Step to Mei Terumi.

Who would have thought that, after learning
