Capítulo 36: Spar
The next day, Akihiko woke up and saw that it was already 9 a.m. He quickly brushed his teeth and created one Shadow Clone to manage the shop. While the shadow clone was managing the shop, Akihiko decided to go and eat breakfast at Ichikaraku's ramen.
When he got to the shop, he went inside and just sat on a empty chair and ordered a bowl of Miso Ramen.
"Yo, Old Man, a bowl of Miso Ramen please." Akihiko said as he raised his hand to greet Teuchi and Ayame.
"Ho ho, you haven't come here in a while, Akihiko." Teuchi said as he started to prepare for the Miso Ramen.
"I was at Suna for the chunin exam." Akihiko answered as Teuchi finished preparing the Ramen and gave it to him.
"Itadakimasu." Akihiko said as he started to eat the bowl of ramen.
Ayame who heard that Akihiko went to Suna for the chunin exam was curious and decided to ask him, "Was it difficult? And did you pass?"
Akihiko swallowed the noodles in his mouth before answering, "The tests aren't that hard. They are quite easy in my opinion. Also, Ayame-nee, aren't you underestimating me a lot? I won the first place in the exam, you know?"
"Yea, right." Ayame said as she didn't believe in his words.
Akihiko just continued to eat his noodles while moving his hands into his pouch and took out a golden medal before sliding it towards Ayame.
Ayame checked the medal and looked back at Akihiko before asking, "Who even carries their medal everywhere?"
Akihiko just looked in her eyes without saying anything.
…
…
…
…
Nine seconds passed and Ayame was starting to blush in her ears as she has never been stared in the eyes for that long. Akihiko just smiled at that before saying, "Me."
"Anyways, the ramen was delicious was always Teuchi-san, if you want to eat some of my cookies, you can always let Ayame-nee come and buy. I will give you a discount." Akihiko said as he paid the price for the ramen.
After that, Akihiko decided to train his sword arts. Before leaving, he winked at Ayame who was looking at his direction causing her to blush more. Teuchi saw this and just laughed.
Akihiko who was walking towards the training ground was thinking if Teuchi was really a sage of six paths as he remembered some discussions about Teuchi being another Sage of Six Paths. If Teuchi was really a Sage of Six Paths, would he have Truth-Seeking Balls or Ramen Bowls floating behind his back.
He just shook his head and took out his katana as he got inside the training ground.
-----
Akihiko looked around the training grounds and was happy that there was no one here. Although he could go to a remote forest ground, he didn't. Why? Because he didn't want to, what more reasons do you need.
Akihiko started practicing Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu as he is still at the Amaetur stage.
*Swish* *Swish*
Sounds were made as Akihiko continued practicing Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu, not paying attention to how much time has passed.
An hour passed like this and Akihiko had some sweat rolling down his body. He didn't sweat too much as his body was improving everyday slightly due to Jugo's bloodline absorbing natural energy and his talent [Enhanced Endurance].
"Haah, this is not enough to master huh? I will just practice more." Akihiko muttered before continuing to practice.
Another 1 hour passed and the skill still hasn't been mastered even though Akihiko had the [Kenjutsu Talent].
Akihiko was about to continue before he heard clapping sounds.
*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*
-----
[10 minutes before]
"Lee, Neji, Tenten, today we are going to the training ground again. To become stronger, you have to work hard. Without hard work, even a genius will be nothing without hard work. SO LET YOUR POWER OF YOUTH EXPLODE!"
"HAI, GUY-SENSEI!" Lee yelled as he was starting to become more and more like guy. He might even start wearing a green spandex the next week.
Neji and TenTen just nodded as they followed Guy.
When they entered the training ground, they saw Akihiko training with his katana.
Lee, Ten Ten were surprised to see Akihiko trying to master his technique, not even knowing that they had entered.
Neji was trying to see how he would fare against Akihiko.
Guy just smiled as Akihiko still practiced as hard as he did 6 years ago.
They continued watching for another ten minutes before Akihiko stopped. Team Guy saw that Akihiko was about to start his training again before they heard someone clapping.
They turned around to see their sensei, Might Guy with a smile on his face while clapping.
"HAHAHA, I AM HAPPY TO SEE THAT YOU ARE STILL WORKING HARD, AKIHIKO. HOW IS YOUR TAIJUTSU PROGRESS GOING?" Guy asked as he walked towards Akihiko.
"My taijutsu isn't improving anymore so I'm just trying to improve other areas." Akihiko answered as it was the truth. His taijutsu skill haven't gone up from Advanced Mastery for a long time.
Guy just went into deep thought for a while before nodding, "Ho, so that's how it is huh?"
"Yea, anyways, let's spar Guy-sensei, we didn't get to spar yesterday." Akihiko said as he smiled.
Guy also smiled and said, "ALRIGHT! LET'S SPAR TO OUR HEART'S CONTENT! KIDS, WATCH CAREFULLY HOW REAL MEN FIGHT!" Guy said as he turned towards his students at the end of the sentence.
The three of them nodded as they decided to watch the fight and to remember every detail.
-----
Currently, Akihiko and Guy were standing against each other with a distance around 3 m between them.
"Guy-sensei, let's dance." Akihiko said as he disappeared from his place.
Guy also smiled as he also disappeared from his place.
*Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang*
Loud sounds were made as Akihiko's attacks and Guy's attacks met. Both of them blocked each other's attacks but Akihiko was faster than Guy asince his body was tempered with natural energy.
Guy just smiled as he said, "Eight Inner Gates: First Gate Release." as his speed and power increased.
Akihiko smiled knowing that, Guy finally used Eight Gates and started to attack even faster. Guy was surprised that Akihiko could go faster since he knew that Akihiko was still 11. But who could measure Akihiko with common sense?
Guy continued attacking but seeing that both he and Akihiko were exchanging blow after blow, decided to use the second gate.
His skin turned red as his physical strength got enhanced. He punched Akihiko to which Akihiko blocked but still got knocked back a bit.
Akihiko just dashed forward again as he kicked Guy but got blocked. He was still not tired and threw punch after punch, kick after kick.
Guy felt proud as he thought Akihiko about taijutsu and decided to finish the spar. He released the third gate as he became even more faster and stronger. He was currently overpowering Akihiko who got pushed back blow after blow. Then, when Guy found a small opening, he kicked Akihiko who tried to block the incoming strike but found himself hitting the wall.
Akihiko had some blood falling down but his body healed quickly and he just stood up. Guy also deactivated the Eight Inner Gates as he smiled.
"Haha, Guy-sensei, I lost. What was that technique that you used? It was very powerful." Akihiko asked even though he knew what it was.
"Don't feel down, Akihiko. You even made me use my Eight Inner Gates." Guy said as he smiled proudly at Akihiko.
"So, that technique's name was Eight Inner Gates? Can you teach me, Guy-sensei. If you can't, it's fine too." Akihiko said.
"OF COURSE, YOUNG AKIHIKO. YOU CAN COME AND LEARN IT FROM ME ANYTIME. I THINK OF YOU AS MY OWN FAMILY SO YOU DON"T HAVE TO WORRY."
Listening to Guy's words, Akihiko let out a smile as Lee who was watching started shedding tears.
Neji was still thinking about the fight as he used byakugan to watch it but just saw blurry images.
TenTen couldn't even see any movement since the beginning.
"Then, I'll be off, Guy-sensei. I still have some work to do. Please excuse me." Akihiko said as he bowed.
"Alright, see you later." Guy said as Akihiko walked away.
Akihiko who walked out thought, 'If I manage to learn Eight Inner Gates, my power will increase a lot. Now, let's go and manage my shop.'
After that Akihiko went to his shop and dispersed the shadow clone. He meditated and took in all of the memories for a three- hour span in a fast forwarded movie style.
Akihiko just smiled as he thought about the amount of money he earned, "Why would you risk your life in missions if you can become rich by selling cookies? Oh right, I still have to drink the FOY."
Akihiko took out the goblet with the FYO in it. He looked at it and saw that it was still almost full as he gave Kushina and Mikoto a few drops. He poured a cup full of water from FOY while there was still around 1/3 left as Akihiko drank it.
Akihiko felt that his body was full of energy and he thought, 'So, I will regenerate if I still have a piece of my flesh intact.'
[a/n: I changed something about FOY. A few droplets will give you around 100 year of lifespan while a mouthful of it will grant you Immortality like Ban's.]
