"Mm, very good. That's a wonderful dream. Work toward that goal." Aogetsu Hyuga nodded in satisfaction.

Sakura Haruno gritted her teeth. She was nearly furious with Cangyue.

Sakura Haruno said through clenched teeth, "Teacher Cangyue, I have another question for you!"

"Go ahead." Aogetsu Hyuga said, "Let your Chakra flow toward the soles of your feet."

"Like this?" Sakura Haruno formed Hand Seals, suppressed her anger, focused on sensing her Chakra, and then guided it toward the soles of her feet.

"That's a little strange. Maintain it for one minute first." Aogetsu Hyuga sucked on his Lollipop and calmly examined the Chakra flowing down Sakura Haruno's legs toward her feet.

"Yes." The moment Sakura Haruno thought that Cangyue could see everything, she felt as though she were standing naked in front of him.

It was a very unpleasant feeling.

Aogetsu Hyuga stared at Sakura Haruno's legs. After a moment, he said calmly, "Your method isn't wrong, but something is missing. You're using too much Chakra, and you aren't distributing it evenly across every Chakra Point in your feet. That's why you can't maintain it for long."

Sakura Haruno covered her crotch with one hand and her chest with the other. Looking puzzled, she asked, "Evenly? How am I supposed to make it even?"

She was trying to stop Cangyue from looking around.

"There's no need to cover yourself. I can see everything no matter how much you block." Aogetsu Hyuga was speechless. Ordinary Byakugan could only see Chakra Points, but when he used the Byakugan's abilities through his Tenseigan, he could see through things.

Aogetsu Hyuga beckoned to her.

"Teacher Cangyue?" Sakura Haruno stepped forward in confusion.

Aogetsu Hyuga said, "Raise your leg."

"Teacher Cangyue!" Sakura Haruno did not raise her leg. Instead, she glared at Cangyue in embarrassment and anger.

Aogetsu Hyuga coaxed her seductively, "Don't be shy. Be good and listen. It's related to my guidance."

"Th-this?" After hesitating for a moment, Sakura Haruno raised her leg to the side. The posture was extremely embarrassing, so much so that she wanted to cover her face and run home.

"If you want to learn how to pee like a Dog, I have no objections. But public urination is prohibited here." The corner of Aogetsu Hyuga's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at Sakura Haruno in her shameful pose as if she were an idiot.

"I wanted you to stretch your leg toward me."

Sakura Haruno cried out angrily, "Then say that clearly!"

She had already been so embarrassed by the pose that she wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground, and now Teacher Cangyue was even making fun of her.

Sakura Haruno stretched her leg toward Cangyue.

Aogetsu Hyuga gripped Sakura Haruno's ankle. Light-blue Chakra emerged from his other hand, and he sent it into the Chakra Points in her calf.

"All right, try it again." Aogetsu Hyuga released Sakura Haruno.

"That's it?" Sakura Haruno was full of doubt, but she still formed Hand Seals and controlled her Chakra as it flowed toward her feet.

She discovered that controlling her Chakra this time was several times easier than before!

"So easy!" Sakura Haruno's eyes lit up. Excitedly, she asked, "Teacher Cangyue, what happened?"

What the heck.

Teacher Cangyue is a lecher, but he really is amazing.

Aogetsu Hyuga stroked his chin. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Explaining it to you would be troublesome with that brain of yours. Put simply... it was a cramp."

The flat-chested brat had never before tried sending Chakra below her legs. The first time she did so, she used too much Chakra, causing one of the Chakra Points in her leg to become blocked.

"That first part was unnecessary." Sakura Haruno complained, then said happily, "Thank you, Teacher Cangyue."

Sakura Haruno turned around and happily walked toward the distant tree. This time, she should be able to climb all the way to the top in one go.

"Since my students are working so hard, I can take a peaceful nap." Aogetsu Hyuga stretched lazily, but just as he was about to take a nap—

Sasuke Uchiha walked up in front of Cangyue with his hands in his pockets and a cool expression on his face.

Sasuke Uchiha asked coldly, "You told her, didn't you? The trick."

He had just seen Sakura Haruno whispering with Cangyue for a while before suddenly becoming able to climb higher.

Naruto was also climbing higher and higher, while only Sasuke's progress remained slow.

He could not tolerate being surpassed, so he could not help coming to Cangyue for guidance.

Aogetsu Hyuga said, "More or less."

"Tell me the tri—" Sasuke Uchiha stopped halfway through his sentence when he noticed Cangyue's indifferent gaze. He turned his head away, his face flushing slightly, and awkwardly said, "You... Teacher Cangyue, tell... please tell me the trick."

"Pfft—" Aogetsu Hyuga looked at Sasuke, who was clearly pretending to be cool with both hands in his pockets yet was still blushing and acting tsundere. He could not hold back his laughter.

"Hahahaha."

"Are you the tsundere heroine from a novel?"

"I can teach you, but what should you do first? Praise me sincerely a few times." Aogetsu Hyuga pointed his Lollipop at Sasuke's chest. "You have to mean it."

Chapter 25: Yugao: Sorry, I Misjudged Cangyue!

Sasuke Uchiha remained silent, staring at the faintly smiling Aogetsu Hyuga with his eternally cool poker face. In the end, he snorted, turned around, and began to leave.

"Hmph, boring. I'm going back."

He had no interest in fooling around with Cangyue. He only wanted to gain strength as quickly as possible.

"Right now, you're the only one progressing slowly. Is it really fine for Naruto to surpass you?" Aogetsu Hyuga said casually while sucking on his Lollipop, leaning against the tree trunk, and stretching lazily. "Then again, you're a genius of the Uchiha Clan. Surely you can figure out some extraordinary method on your own."

To be honest,

with the amount of Chakra the Uchiha brat possessed, there was no need for him to seek out any trick. He only needed to expend his Chakra climbing the tree and find the feeling.

Sasuke's current amount of Chakra was at the Special Jōnin level. Every evolution of his Sharingan brought about a qualitative increase in his Chakra.

Naruto Uzumaki was even more so. Even setting aside the Nine-Tails' power, Naruto himself possessed the Tailed Beast-level Chakra of the Uzumaki Clan!

Sakura Haruno needed a trick because she did not have much total Chakra, and she could not compare with Sasuke or Naruto.

"Surpassed by the dead-last?" After hearing those words, Sasuke Uchiha stopped. He glanced at Naruto, who was struggling to climb the distant tree, and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.

Surpassed by Naruto Uzumaki, the perennial dead-last?

What a joke!

Sasuke Uchiha secretly clenched his fists. He gritted his teeth as his face gradually turned livid.

Besides, I'm the only one progressing slowly?

I'm a member of the Uchiha Clan!

His pride would not allow him to become the slowest member of Team 7. What he could least tolerate was being surpassed by Naruto!

Because in his eyes, Naruto was an idiot dead-last who was always looking for trouble with him and hindering him at every turn!

Sasuke Uchiha turned to face Cangyue. Embarrassment showed in his eyes as he said awkwardly, "Teacher Cangyue, you're the most handsome man I've ever seen, and also the most responsible teacher."

I have no choice. To gain strength, I'll humble myself for now.

"Very good. I like hearing that. You can praise me some more." Aogetsu Hyuga nodded in satisfaction. Although the Uchiha brat was arrogant, he was willing to humble himself to become stronger.

As long as he dangled the bait of power in front of him in the future, it would be easy to manipulate the Uchiha brat.

No matter how arrogant and cold he was, he was still just a little brat.

"Give me the trick." Sasuke Uchiha raised his leg. He had previously seen Sakura Haruno raise her leg and then have her Chakra Points adjusted, after which she seemed able to control her Chakra better.

"What? You want to learn how to pee like a Dog too? Put it down. I have no interest in a man's legs." Aogetsu Hyuga waved his hand in disgust.

Sakura Haruno had raised her leg because her Chakra Point was blocked. Sasuke's Chakra Points were fine, so what use would raising his leg be?

"What's the trick?" Sasuke Uchiha awkwardly lowered his leg. His face flushed slightly from embarrassment, but he still maintained his cool expression.

"Fire Release." Aogetsu Hyuga raised one finger. His playful expression disappeared as he said calmly, "When you use Fire Release, you make your Chakra flow toward your throat, right? Just climb the tree while relying on the feeling you have when using Fire Release."

Since the Uchiha brat could use Fire Release, he had clearly already learned to control the flow of his Chakra to a certain extent.

"The feeling of Fire Release..." Sasuke Uchiha furrowed his brows slightly and pondered the trick Cangyue had given him. When he used Fire Release, he could indeed naturally spread his Chakra throughout his body before directing all of it toward his throat.

"Of course, don't climb with your throat. Make your Chakra flow toward your feet." Aogetsu Hyuga reminded him.

"Do you take me for that idiot Naruto?" Sasuke Uchiha left with his hands in his pockets. After taking two steps, he stopped and glanced back at Aogetsu Hyuga. In an awkward tone, he said, "Thank you, Teacher Cangyue."

Then Sasuke Uchiha walked to the tree and began training.

"What an annoying little tsundere brat." Aogetsu Hyuga gazed calmly at all of Team 7, who were training hard, and muttered to himself, "At this rate, they should be able to finish Tree-Climbing Training tonight, right?"

Aogetsu Hyuga closed his eyes and fell asleep against the tree trunk.

Time slowly passed. Three hours went by.

"Whoosh!" A figure suddenly appeared out of thin air. She was a Female Ninja from ANBU, wearing a fox Mask and sporting purple hair that reached her waist.

Uzuki Yugao stood as motionless as a stone statue. Her voice held no emotion as she greeted him blandly, "Mr. Cangyue."

Aogetsu Hyuga did not raise his head. Lying on his side atop a stone slab, he flipped through Icha Icha Paradise and said lazily, "What a rare guest. ANBU actually has business with me."

"Lord Hokage has ordered that all Genin are to carry out missions. Only Team 7 has yet to take one. If this continues, their Genin qualification will be revoked." Seeing Cangyue's attitude, Uzuki Yugao's brows furrowed slightly. A Jonin in charge of a team was far too lazy.

"Is that so?" Aogetsu Hyuga yawned. Team 7 had always been assigned missions, but he had rejected every one of them.

Find a cat?

Find a Dog?

Was that something a Ninja should do?

Rather than waste time looking for cats and Dogs, it would be better to let Team 7 focus on training.

Uzuki Yugao said flatly, "Mr. Cangyue, Lord Hokage has issued an order."

Aogetsu Hyuga continued flipping through Icha Icha Paradise. Looking at the scene of someone peeping into a women's bathhouse, he casually replied, "Is that so?"

"This is Lord Hokage's order." Uzuki Yugao raised her voice. Cangyue's lax attitude made her somewhat angry.

Besides...

The book Mr. Cangyue was reading was the particularly lewd kind of novel, wasn't it?

If he had time to read such lewd novels, he should be taking Team 7 on missions!

Sigh.

The Genin of Team 7 were truly pitiful to have such an irresponsible teacher in charge of them.

Although Mr. Cangyue was very strong, he was completely devoid of responsibility.

"Little Yugao, I know that as a member of ANBU, you have to assist the Hokage and treat serving the Hokage as your core duty." Aogetsu Hyuga closed the book and glanced indifferently at Uzuki Yugao. "But let me ask you this: when did that old man Third Hokage start thinking he could order me around?"

Uzuki Yugao turned her head away and muttered softly, "Since you're the Jonin in charge of the team, you should at least put some effort into your students, shouldn't you?"

Sakura Haruno came running from afar. After reaching Cangyue, she glanced at Uzuki Yugao strangely, then panted heavily and said, "Huff... huff... Teacher Cangyue, listen to me! I can climb all the way to the top of the tree now!"

She had just become able to easily climb to the top using her feet.

And it was the very tree Cangyue had designated!

Aogetsu Hyuga patted Sakura Haruno's head and praised her with a chuckle, "Very impressive."

To be honest,

he was also rather surprised. He had not expected Team 7 to complete Tree-Climbing Training so quickly.

Sakura Haruno looked toward Sasuke and Naruto in the distance, who were still frantically climbing. Bitterly, she said, "Although I haven't climbed as high as Sasuke and the others."

Sasuke and Naruto were still climbing. After reaching the top of the tree designated by Cangyue, the two had begun competing with each other, trying to climb an even taller tree.

"It's fine, it's fine. Being able to complete the training is what matters." Aogetsu Hyuga summoned the Attribute Panel and glanced at the Master-Disciple Mission.

[Master-Disciple Mission Progress (1/2), Time Remaining: 27 days.]

The entire Team 7 had now perfectly completed Tree-Climbing Training. The mission progress had also reached 1/2. The only task remaining was walking on water.

Their progress was incredibly fast, far beyond his estimates!

"Tree climbing?" Uzuki Yugao was slightly stunned. She turned her head toward Naruto and Sasuke, who were climbing the distant tree with their feet.

Naruto and Sasuke were both in a sorry state, but they kept climbing higher and higher as they competed against each other!

So the reason Mr. Cangyue had refused the missions was that he planned to have Team 7 train first!

Thinking about it carefully, it made perfect sense. The new Genin were still a bunch of rookies. If a bunch of rookies went on missions without the help of the Jonin in charge, they probably would not be able to complete them properly at all, would they?

Could it be that Mr. Cangyue had taken this into consideration, and that was why he had temporarily rejected all missions to improve Team 7's overall strength?

I had misjudged Mr. Cangyue. I never would have imagined that he had considered so many things for Team 7.
