Don't rush. Training is certainly something you little brats need to do now.
But before you start training, there are still a few things we need to figure out.
After Kakashi finished speaking leisurely, he took several gray slips of paper from his vest.
Lin Fan recognized them at a glance. They were Chakra Test Papers, used to determine a ninja's chakra nature.
You brats, try channeling the chakra inside your bodies into these slips of paper. Let your teacher figure out what chakra natures you have first.
Then I can teach you ninjutsu that suits you.
As soon as Kakashi finished speaking, Sasuke was the first to take several test papers.
He held one between the fingers of each hand, narrowed his eyes, and instantly channeled chakra into both slips.
The one on the left crumpled instantly, while the one on the right burst into flames and disappeared.
His movements were smooth and efficient, without a hint of hesitation.
Not bad. Sasuke now has Lightning Release and Fire Release chakra.
Kakashi nodded in satisfaction.
Kakashi, the Lightning Release Ninjutsu Lin Fan used in our last fight with the Demon Brothers suits me. Teach it to me right away!
Sasuke said coldly, with an air of arrogance.
Kakashi nodded. "You mean Chidori? But I think another Lightning Release technique, one with greater piercing power—Chidori—might suit you better right now."
Whatever. As long as it makes me stronger, I don't care which technique I learn!
Tomorrow morning at six, meet me in the woods behind this house.
After Sasuke finished speaking expressionlessly, he quickly turned and left Lin Fan's room.
Hmph, you smug face, what are you so proud of? Is having two chakra natures really such a big deal?
Naruto curled his lip at Sasuke's departing figure, then took three Chakra Test Papers from Kakashi.
It was obvious that after Naruto channeled chakra into them, all three of his test papers split in half.
Naruto, having more test papers doesn't mean you have more chakra natures. You only have one chakra nature in your body right now: Wind Release.
Kakashi shrugged and shook his head.
What? I only have one chakra nature? That's not fair!
Naruto's expression changed instantly, and he let out a long, anguished sigh.
Don't be discouraged. Wind Release chakra can tear through and destroy anything. If you use it well, it can be incredibly powerful.
Lin Fan stood up and patted Naruto on the shoulder, offering comfort.
Kakashi nodded in agreement.
Really, Kakashi-sensei? Do you know any Wind Release Ninjutsu? Hurry up and teach me. I want to learn!
Excitement sparkled in Naruto's bright blue eyes.
I'm very sorry, but I don't know any Wind Release Ninjutsu yet.
What?
Naruto rolled his eyes, his spirits plummeting.
How about this? I do have a technique I can teach you. It's no weaker than Chidori. You and Sasuke can both get up early tomorrow and wait for me.
Seeing that no one was going to teach Naruto any ninjutsu, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling a little sorry for him.
Lin Fan, big bro, you really are my best brother.
Once you teach me, I'll become whoever you want me to be. From now on, I can wash up every night and wait for you in bed.
Naruto said cheerfully.
Get lost.
Lin Fan couldn't help laughing as he scolded him.
The only person who could wash up and wait for him in bed at home now
was Hinata.
Soon, Naruto left the room, overjoyed.
At last, Lin Fan took the test papers from Kakashi.
He channeled chakra into his fingertips, and the paper in his hand instantly split into two.
Lin Fan had already demonstrated ninjutsu of the four chakra natures other than Wind Release to others, so Kakashi naturally understood what the test paper's result meant.
Lin Fan, you really are a genius with chakra of all five natures.
Kakashi was overjoyed.
At only twelve years old, he had all five chakra natures and had awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
His future achievements would be limitless.
Lin Fan, however, wasn't particularly impressed by Lord Kakashi's excitement.
As if you don't have all five chakra natures too.
Meanwhile, in the reception room of the Land of Waves Shipping Company,
the lecherous-looking company president, Gato, eyed Zabuza and Haku with contempt.
Heh, you actually failed. I heard you were incredibly capable ninjas, so I paid a high price to hire you. And you couldn't even beat a little brat.
Before Gato could finish speaking, the tip of the Kubikiribōchō was already pressed against his throat.
You're so damn noisy. This time, that kid and I will attack together. We'll definitely take care of that old man.
Zabuza said, his face shadowed and his voice cold.
B-but the enemy hired an elite Konoha jonin to protect him, and there's also that exceptionally talented boy.
I-I'm afraid—
With the Kubikiribōchō looming ever closer to his throat,
Gato broke out in a cold sweat, his body trembling slightly.
Heh, you're afraid of them, but aren't you afraid of us?
Haku said with a chuckle, revealing his exquisitely handsome face.
Swish, swish!
The two senbon in his hand shot out, pierced Gato's sunglasses, and pinned the lenses firmly to the wall.
I-I'll give you one last chance!!!
After stammering those words, Gato fled the reception room.
Damn it, that brat Lin Fan made me suffer such humiliation. I'll make him pay a hundred times over.
Zabuza said viciously, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.
Lord Zabuza, you must have underestimated him last time. That's why Lin Fan had a chance to see through your Hand Seals.
If we find the right opportunity and attack together, we'll definitely be able to take him down.
Haku said reassuringly.
I hope you're right.
When Zabuza saw Haku's warm, spring-breeze smile, his anger couldn't help but turn to joy.
That was true.
If Haku hadn't helped him put on that act of faking his death,
the Kunai in Lin Fan's hand would have pierced his heart long ago.
There would have been no talk of revenge.
After so many years of life on the run, the two of them had long since developed a tacit understanding.
At the thought, warmth welled up in Zabuza's heart.
At six the next morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
The four members of Team 7 gathered in the woods behind Tazuna's house to begin their training.
First, under Kakashi's guidance, they climbed trees and practiced Water Walking, then climbed onto the roof and traversed the cliffs, completing their warm-up exercises before training.
Lin Fan, big bro, what powerful ninjutsu are you going to teach me later?
Naruto asked with a squinting smile.
Actually, I'd like to see what kind of Wind Release Ninjutsu you know too, Lin Fan.
Kakashi asked, equally curious.
Lin Fan scratched his head. "Actually, I don't know any Wind Release techniques either, but I think this technique will be perfect for Naruto."
The three of them watched as he held one hand out, forming a small sphere threaded with wisps of sky-blue chakra.
With his other hand, he kept pressing down on the sphere.
Before long, a blue chakra sphere about the size of his palm appeared.
