In the alternate dimension, Tsubasa instructed, "Hey, students, listen up! This is the alternate dimension waiting room. Let me explain in detail. Once inside, you must study hard and hone your combat skills. Don't waste time refining Chakra. You must rely on your own abilities to survive and learn to live in harmony with nature."
Alright, I've prepared some of Konoha's secret techniques for all of you. These books are treasures, so you must make good use of them. I've finished my instructions; I'll come back to take you back in ten years. Now, let's open the portal and go inside! Tsubasa performed a few operations on the control panel, and then a huge black hole appeared on the metal platform. Behind the black hole, another world could be vaguely seen.
The students lined up and went in one by one. Then, as if time and space had been switched, they appeared in the sky of another dimension and fell into a primeval forest.
Tsubasa, hovering in the air, looked at the ten people's somewhat disheveled appearance and said with a smile, "This world is vast; you can explore it. You will stay here for ten years. How far you grow in these ten years depends on your own comprehension and perseverance. Continue to study and improve yourselves every day. We'll meet again in ten years."
Inside the alternate dimension, the ten students looked at each other and then quickly began to act.
"Hey, Hatake Sakumo, we need to find a place to settle down quickly. This place isn't dangerous, but we can't be careless. "Asuka Iwata said, he began looking for a suitable location to build a dwelling. He found a spot near a stream and began using Earth Release Ninjutsu to build a simple rock hut.
Nara Shikanei observed the terrain from the side, recording everything around him in his tactical notebook. He didn't want to miss any detail of the alternate dimension.
Hyuga Reon wasn't idle either; she began searching for herbs to prepare some simple medicines. She knew that staying healthy was important in this unfamiliar place. Kurama Satsuki, meanwhile, was practicing Genjutsu intently, hoping to use this time to further improve her understanding of Genjutsu.
Might Duy and Kyogoku Rikiō sparred together, exchanging blows and kicks with great enthusiasm. Uzuki Nozomi practiced swordsmanship on the sidelines, her swordplay swift and powerful, every movement brimming with strength.
Gekko Kenshichi was studying sword manuals with great interest, occasionally even practicing a few moves. Uchiha Bi was practicing his Sharingan, wanting to make his eyes even more powerful. Hatake Sakumo was practicing ninja swordsmanship, his deadly swordsmanship sending chills down anyone's spine.
These ten people, though different in personality, share the same goal. Over the past ten years, they have learned everything they wanted to know, spending their days either diligently honing their skills or reading and absorbing knowledge. They also help and encourage each other in their daily lives.
In the world of ninjas, ten years is like a long training course. For Hatake Sakumo, Nara Shikanei Hyuga Reon, Hyuga Rene, Kurama Satsuki, Asuka Iwata, Uzuki Nozomi, Gekko Kenshichi, Uchiha Bi, and Might Duy, these ten years were a journey from ignorance to maturity, a transformation from genius to power.
Ten years ago, Hatake Sakumo was just a boy who yearned for the Wind and Lightning Ninja Blade Technique. Although his swordsmanship was swift, it always lacked a bit of precision and stability. He was well aware of his shortcomings, so he began arduous training. Hokage Tsubasa left them many secret manuals, including basic knowledge of Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, and various secondary professions.
Tensei, as the first rays of sunlight fall upon the training ground, Hatake Sakumo already grips his short sword and begins his practice. He stands before a massive rock, closes his eyes, and feels the power of lightning flowing within him. He concentrates this power at the tip of his blade, then swings it with a mighty swing. The blade slices through the air with a deafening roar, cleaving the rock in two, but his face shows no joy. He knows this is only the first step; later, he will incorporate wind attributes.
He began practicing controlling the power of wind and thunder, allowing it to form a thin layer of wind and thunder energy on the blade. With each swing, he tried to concentrate and refine the intensity and range of the wind and thunder. His hands were burned countless times by the wind and thunder, his skin covered in scars, but he never gave up. He believed that only through countless failures and trials could he truly master the essence of the Wind and Lightning Ninja Blade Technique, achieving swift, accurate, ruthless, and silent strikes.
Ten years later, Hatake Sakumo stood before Nara Shikanei, and excitedly said, " Shikanei, I have perfect control over my Wind and Lightning Ninja Blade Technique! Let's spar!" His eyes gleamed with confidence, and the short sword in his hand emitted dazzling lightning. With a gentle swing, the power of wind and lightning danced in the air like a nimble dragon before striking its target with pinpoint accuracy. His swordsmanship was not only incredibly swift but also possessed immense control, each strike precisely hitting a vital point.
Nara Shikanei looked at his swordsmanship with admiration in his eyes. " Sakumo, your progress is truly remarkable. You're already at the peak of the Kage Level, right? However, I haven't been stagnant either. I've created a new Kageko technique, so don't underestimate me."
Nara Shikanei has always been an exceptionally intelligent ninja, whose Kageko techniques were already renowned during his time at the Advanced Ninja Academy. However, ten years ago, although he could skillfully utilize his clan's Kageko techniques in combat, his tactics lacked depth and complexity. He realized that to establish himself in the world of ninjas, he had to constantly innovate and break through limitations.
Thus began Shikanei's arduous training. He often wandered alone in the forest, carefully observing the Kageko of trees, flowers, and animals, pondering how to incorporate them into his tactics. He discovered that with Chakra and his family's secret techniques, Kageko were not merely products of light and shadow, but a force that could be manipulated.
He began practicing merging his own Kageko with the Kageko of his surroundings to create more complex illusions. He could create multiple Kageko clones to fight for him in an instant, and he could even make the Kageko of his enemies fight for him. He could also use the movements of his Kageko clones to extend the Kageko, increasing his attack range several times over. He was completely focused during each practice session, constantly trying new combinations and variations.
Ten years later, Shikanei's Kageko tactics have reached a new level. Standing before Hatake Sakumo, he smiled slightly, " Sakumo, my new Kageko tactics are no joke. They allow me to instantly gain the upper hand in battle, making me impossible to defend against." With a gentle wave of his hand, the surrounding Kageko instantly distorted, as if countless Nara Shikanei were hidden within them. His tactics are not only more complex but also more deceptive; he can even transform into an entire army of Kageko warriors all by himself.
Hyuga Reon is a gentle girl whose idol is Hyuga Muyan, so she has a special love for archery. Her chosen medical secondary profession has always been her pride. Ten years ago, although her archery was accurate, it lacked variety and could not inflict fatal damage on powerful enemies. Her Medical Ninjutsu could only treat some simple injuries, and she often felt powerless in the face of complex injuries.
To make up for these shortcomings, Hyuga Reon began arduous training. Tensei she would come to the valley to practice various bow-drawing techniques, figuring out how to make her arrows more accurate and lethal. She also studied the manufacturing methods of various arrows, practiced Hyuga Gentle Fist, and read various Ninjutsu Taijutsu manuals, integrating Ninjutsu and Taijutsu into them, so that her arrows could unleash greater power and attack enemies from more unpredictable and tricky angles after being fired.
In terms of Medical Ninjutsu, Reon put in a tremendous amount of effort, studying various medical books every day. She delved into the medicinal properties of various herbs, learning how to combine them into powerful remedies. She also studied the meridians and acupoints of the human body, mastering more advanced Medical Ninjutsu. She often practiced alone at night, using her Chakra to heal injured animals, observing their recovery, and constantly adjusting her treatment methods.
