Bab 126: Chapter 126: Lightning Release: False Darkness
Monday afternoon, at the Academy.
The homeroom teachers of the first-year classes had already reminded their students to go to the main auditorium for the theory class, so there were no awkward incidents of students not showing up for the first major lesson.
"So many people."
"Isn't that Uchiha Shisui from Class 1-1?"
"And also from Class 4..."
The vast majority of students were attending this kind of major class for the first time, feeling a sense of freshness and excitement as they discussed various things with their friends.
Knock, knock!
"Everyone, please quiet down a bit. The class is about to begin." Mutsuki, who walked into the classroom, gently reminded them as he knocked on the table.
Everyone from Class 1-1 instantly closed their mouths, and most of the students from other classes also stopped talking, except for a few bolder students who continued their whispered discussions.
"This seems to be Yumi-sensei, who I heard was an excellent teacher last semester."
"We'll see how good he is in a bit."
Mutsuki paid no attention to the faint sounds that didn't disturb the classroom and continued speaking:
"Everyone, take out your textbooks. Today, we will be learning about the History of Konoha, Volume One."
"During the Warring States period, there was a great Ninja clan centered around benevolence, the Senju clan..."
Although it was the History of Konoha, it didn't start from the establishment of Konoha. It began with how Konoha was established and rose during times of war.
As a sensei, Mutsuki had read the three books on the History of Konoha several times.
How should I put it? Overall, it was similar to what he remembered of history, but there were some stylistic techniques in the specific descriptions.
For example, there was more praise for the Senju. Although in Mutsuki's eyes, the Senju and Uchiha were Ninja clans fighting their own battles, the textbooks portrayed the Senju Clan as upholding justice, while the presence of the Uchiha Clan was considerably dimmer, with Uchiha Madara being portrayed as the greatest villain in Konoha's history.
On the point of Uchiha Madara, Mutsuki mostly agreed. Uchiha Madara could indeed be considered the biggest villain in Konoha's history, because at that time, Uchiha Madara had already been tricked and didn't care at all about Konoha.
Mutsuki was very familiar with the textbook. He rarely read from the book while teaching because he had a timeline in his mind and could speak along that, explaining the points of knowledge while also sharing historical anecdotes.
This was how he learned from his high school history sensei. Back in high school, his history sensei would teach like this, discussing knowledge points while telling interesting stories and historical anecdotes.
However, Mutsuki didn't dare to play around with Konoha history in class. On the surface, Konoha appeared to be an ordinary city, but in essence, it was actually a military base.
"This sensei is indeed better than the previous theory class sensei." Those students who hadn't taken Mutsuki's classes had to admit that Mutsuki's lessons were a bit more interesting.
After all, some theoretical knowledge could be dry and boring. If the sensei was the type to read straight from the textbook, it could really be so boring that it would make you want to doze off.
[Completed a major class teaching]
[Evaluation: A]
[Rewards: Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet jutsu, Lightning Release: False Darkness]
The Water Dragon Bullet was a jutsu that Mutsuki was already proficient in, and upon receiving it again, Mutsuki noticed that the proficiency level on his skill panel had increased. As for the Lightning Release: False Darkness, this was the first time Mutsuki had acquired it.
"I'll focus on boosting my Chakra this semester." Mutsuki thought for a moment and decided to change his teaching strategy, no longer splitting it in half, but focusing primarily on Chakra first.
He now mastered many Ninjutsu techniques, not just the basic five elemental Ninjutsu. He also knew quite a bit about Yang Release's Medical Ninjutsu and Yin Release's Genjutsu. Whether it was teaching students or using them in battles, he had enough. Surprisingly, his Chakra was currently more than double that of an ordinary Jonin.
If only he could have as much Chakra as Third, even if he couldn't stand in the sky, he wouldn't need to be so cautious.
Of course, just changing his battle strategy wouldn't necessarily increase his Chakra by that much.
After all, a regular small class only earns twenty points each time. Switching from splitting to focusing entirely on Chakra, he would gain an extra hundred points in a week, but now with the major classes, the returns would be higher.
After school, Mutsuki went to the Southern Forest, where Obito and Guy had been training for most of the day.
Despite having instruction on techniques, Guy still hadn't managed to learn Shadow Clone in a few days. In the end, Mutsuki created a Shadow Clone with very little Chakra and used it to attend classes in place of Guy temporarily.
However, to ensure Guy didn't fall behind in theory, Mutsuki would take some time, without disturbing their training, to supplement Guy's theoretical knowledge.
After all, there was always time for rest during training. Studying theory to relax during rest time wasn't a bad idea.
"I am fire, I am fire, I am burning..." Obito squatted by the fire, feeling its warmth, trying to hypnotize himself.
Mutsuki used an appraisal on Obito. His proficiency was still at fifteen points from this morning, and Obito's self-hypnosis technique hadn't taken effect.
Seeing Mutsuki's main body approach, Obito sighed and said, "Sensei, this training is too difficult. I've been roasting by the fire all day, almost getting heatstroke, and I haven't felt anything special."
The insights into flames and fire were just too abstract. Obito felt like he had tried everything, but he couldn't sense any changes at all.
"Don't be impatient. This Secret Jutsu is very suitable for you; it's just that the difficulty is too high," Mutsuki reassured.
"Starting tomorrow, you and Shisui will have lunch and dinner here every day. I'll make some fiery dishes; maybe it will speed up your progress," Mutsuki suggested after some thought.
Previously, when he was training in Fire Chakra Nature Transformation, the dishes that could induce hallucinations had worked. Perhaps the steps to understanding Flame Breathing and feeling the flames could also work.
"Shisui, you can also move on to the next step tomorrow," Mutsuki said to Shisui.
Although Shisui had initially fallen behind Obito, Shisui was more diligent in his training. Moreover, he had performed well during the second step of training. Now, his progress was the same as Obito's, both reaching a proficiency level of fifteen points.
"Ah?" Upon hearing Mutsuki's words, Obito subconsciously tensed a certain vulnerable part of his body.
That was truly a memory best left unrecalled; going into the bathroom was fine, but coming out required leaning against the wall.
Even Shisui, upon hearing Mutsuki's words, showed a look of facing a formidable foe. This was no joking matter.
"Yumi-sensei, I actually think our progress is not bad at the moment. After all, it's such a difficult Secret Jutsu. It's normal not to make progress in a day," Obito felt he could still make a case.
"Yumi-sensei, I haven't even started the process of understanding yet. How about letting me try regular training first to see how it goes?" Shisui thought for a moment and suggested.
Mutsuki thought Shisui made sense, so he nodded and said, "Alright, Shisui, you can hold off for tomorrow. Obito will go first."
Obito looked at Shisui with a puzzled expression, feeling like Shisui was being selfish.
"I've thought about it carefully, and I think Yumi-sensei, your idea is really good. It will definitely be beneficial for training, and besides, cooking separately would be quite troublesome. Why don't we all just eat the same thing?" Obito proposed.
It's impossible for one person to suffer alone and still want to keep to oneself. Don't blame him if he ends up dragging everyone else down with him.
"Why do you keep changing your mind?" Mutsuki appeared next to Obito in a flash, tapping Obito's head lightly.
Clearly, Shisui's suggestion made more sense this time.
Now that both Shisui and Obito had a proficiency level of fifteen, the next step was for Obito to eat while Shisui did not. If Obito's proficiency rose significantly faster, then it would indicate that it was effective. Mutsuki not only needed to prepare fiery dishes for Obito and Shisui but also needed to figure out how to make some hearty dishes for Guy.
However, Mutsuki couldn't think of any dishes off the top of his head that could create an environment related to rocks and earth. He certainly couldn't just cook with stones and mud.
Mutsuki thought that if rocks were edible, perhaps under the influence of the system's skills, they might taste decent.
"I'm just worried about everyone's training and also afraid of tiring you out, Yumi-sensei," Obito chuckled, rubbing the spot where he was tapped.
"Sensei isn't afraid of getting tired. As long as you can achieve results in your training," Mutsuki said with a grin.
Obito thought to himself, 'This time, it might really be only me who suffers.'
'Mutsuki-sensei, please bless us. I hope Shisui doesn't make too much progress in his training tomorrow' Obito prayed silently, with his hands clasped together.
If Shisui achieved something in his training tomorrow, it would be even more frustrating than not making any progress. Because that would mean in the future, he would truly be the only one suffering.
Obito would rather have Shisui not catching up to him in progress, even if it meant both of them enduring various spicy dishes together, than being the only one leaning against the wall after using the bathroom.
After finishing today's training, Obito's progress in Flame Breathing remained unchanged.
Returning home, Obito saw his Shadow Clone lying on his bed, reading a novel. He suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to dispel the Shadow Clone.
Obito immediately dispelled the Shadow Clone. It had taken quite an effort to get the Shadow Clone to attend his classes for him.
In the moment the Shadow Clone was dispelled, all the memories of today's classes flooded back into Obito's mind.
In that instant, Obito felt like he had been through a long, tedious, and dull math class for half the day.
"Ugh, math is so annoying," Obito groaned as he flopped onto his bed.
He had discovered a problem. Even though it was his Shadow Clone attending classes, after the memories flowed back upon dispelling the clone, the vivid feelings were no different from when he attended himself. The boredom and pain were just as present.
"Wait a minute, does this mean...?" Obito realized something and formed the seals again, summoning another Shadow Clone. He tempted the Shadow Clone to solve a problem.
As soon as the problem was solved, Obito immediately dispelled the Shadow Clone. The memories of solving the problem rushed back into his mind, as if he had just done it himself.
Obito collapsed onto the bed, deciding to revoke the honorable title of Senju Tobirama Clone for his Shadow Clone.
This wasn't entirely useless, was it? Solving problems and attending classes were already mental torture, and now the memories rushed back so vividly, it felt just like doing it himself.
Obito felt that the Shadow Clone really needed some improvements. For instance, it should be able to choose whether the memories flowed back or not. That would make things much better.
"I should stick with Mutsuki-sensei and Six Paths Sage," Obito felt that Senju Tobirama was lacking compared to them.
