Sasuke sprinted across the pond in the courtyard, rushed to the other side, stopped abruptly, and then sprinted back and forth.
After only a few rounds of such intense training, Sasuke collapsed from exhaustion.
Looking at the large group of clones struggling against the water sphere not far away, Sasuke's eyes revealed a hint of envy.
But then he turned his head and stared at the water.
Reflected in the water, Sasuke's eyes each held a swirling tomoe.
Sasuke's lips curled up, but then his smile vanished.
After resting for a short while, he got up again and resumed training.
Fugaku stood on high ground, arms crossed, observing the two men's training.
Kawasaki truly has a keen eye; not only is Sasuke exceptionally talented, but Naruto has also grown rapidly under his individualized teaching methods.
Sasuke awakened his Sharingan at the young age of nine, making him comparable to Itachi.
Itachi's story begins during wartime, while Sasuke's begins in peacetime.
Of course, Fugaku did not believe that Sasuke's talent was superior to Itachi's, but attributed everything to Kawasaki.
If Kawasaki hadn't revealed the various characteristics of the Sharingan to Fugaku, and how to get Sasuke to activate them...
Sasuke could never have awakened the Sharingan at such a young age.
Before leaving, Kawasaki handed over the detailed training plan for Sasuke and Naruto to Fugaku, who was in charge of supervising the training of the two boys.
Considering the Third Hokage's surveillance of Naruto and Naruto's unique physical condition.
Kawasaki specifically instructed Fugaku to teach Naruto the Shadow Clone Technique.
He arranged for Naruto to come to the Uchiha territory with Sasuke every day after school, where a clone would stay to train while the main body would go home to rest.
At first, Sasuke didn't believe that Naruto could master this B-rank ninjutsu.
But the result surprised Sasuke greatly; he couldn't understand why Naruto was far inferior to him in every aspect.
However, Naruto mastered the Shadow Clone Technique almost instantly.
It can even easily split into dozens of shadow clones, and the dissipation of the shadow clones has no negative impact on Naruto, at most making him feel tired.
Seeing Naruto's rapid progress using Shadow Clones, Sasuke felt a pang of envy.
He also begged Fugaku to teach him the Shadow Clone Technique.
Fugaku sternly refused, emphasizing to Sasuke that only Naruto could use Shadow Clones in this way, and that it would be dangerous for others to try.
Young and impetuous Sasuke was not convinced. Seeing how easily Naruto learned, he insisted that Fugaku teach him.
In the end, Mikoto Uchiha couldn't bear to watch any longer and secretly gave the scroll of the Shadow Clone Technique to Sasuke.
Sasuke was full of confidence, but it took him a whole week to learn it.
In the end, Sasuke exhausted his chakra and could only summon one shadow clone.
Although the number was small, which made Sasuke slightly disappointed, the doubling of training efficiency excited him greatly.
That day, he and his clone exceeded their training targets and even did some extra training.
Fugaku stood to the side with his arms crossed, remaining silent.
However, after the shadow clone disappeared, Sasuke immediately fainted.
It took me two days of bed rest at home to recover.
When Sasuke woke up, his head was buzzing and he was unable to fully recover for a long time.
Only then did Sasuke realize that everyone has their own strengths and that one should not force oneself to try things one does not understand.
He recalled Kawasaki-sensei's teachings about the issue of self-control.
Realizing he had been too arrogant, he apologized to Fugaku with a touch of shame.
Fugaku said to Sasuke with a slight smile, "Kawasaki is right. Once you gain even a little ability or learn something, you become arrogant."
"Your mother gave you the Shadow Clone Scroll to see if you could recognize yourself."
"You really don't know your own limitations, just copying what others do."
"I told you that Naruto has a special physique, and he's the only one who can learn Shadow Clone Jutsu. Why didn't you listen?"
"Kawasaki said that as soon as you see what Naruto does, you will be eager to imitate him without considering whether it is appropriate, and he was right."
Sasuke stammered, "Did Kawasaki-sensei even foresee this?"
"Your teacher is so wise; he foresaw your reaction when he designed your training plan."
You never learn; you never listen to reason.
"You'll never obey unless you suffer a loss. Now you know that shadow clones aren't suitable for you, right?"
Sasuke blushed and lowered his head, speechless.
Fugaku originally intended to stop there, but he remembered Kawasaki's analysis of Sasuke's personality.
They insist on repeatedly comparing Naruto and Sasuke.
"Being better at academics than Naruto, is that a reason to be proud?"
“You received elite education from a young age, while Naruto had no guidance. It is only natural that your foundation is better than his, not something to be proud of.”
"Naruto takes care of his own life, while you expect him to be waited on hand and foot."
"You spend a lot of time every day practicing ninjutsu and shuriken throwing. You're better than others, shouldn't you?"
"Naruto possesses the Wind Release technique and can use Wind Release. Can you? Why do you insist on comparing..."
Fugaku transforms into the strictest father, belittling Sasuke to nothing.
In the end, Sasuke tearfully admitted his mistake. When he looked up, Fugaku discovered that Sasuke had silently activated his Sharingan.
Before he could even feel joy, Sasuke fainted again.
Upon waking up, Sasuke was happy to have awakened his Sharingan, but he was no longer as arrogant as before.
After that, Sasuke diligently completed the training plan formulated by Kawasaki.
Sasuke's current high-intensity training is all to lay the foundation for learning Chidori in the future.
Sasuke, with his lightning style, is undoubtedly best suited to Chidori. Kawasaki hopes that Sasuke will learn Chidori as soon as possible and embark on his exploration of lightning style ahead of schedule.
The Uchiha clan naturally possesses the Chidori, which Kakashi himself passed down to the Uchiha clan.
Konoha invested a great deal of resources in Obito's Sharingan.
As for Chidori, Kakashi voluntarily taught it to the Uchiha clan.
...Transfer Group...371
Within the Uchiha territory.
"Lord Patriarch!"
Uchiha Keimei brings new information: "Lord Hizashi's position has been taken over by the Hyuga clan."
"This is a letter that Lord Hizashi asked me to deliver."
Fugaku opened the letter, which was an apology from Hizashi. The Third Hokage had reached an agreement with the elders of the Hyuga clan to remove him from office and warned Fugaku to be careful.
Fugaku frowned. Was the Third Hokage about to make a move?
At that moment, another Uchiha member came to report.
"Lord Fugaku, all the members of our security force deployed in the 8th district have been replaced."
...
Konoha 8th Street.
Today, when all the Uchiha shops opened for business, they discovered that the patrolling security team had been replaced by unfamiliar faces instead of Uchiha clan members.
Their expressions were cold, unlike the friendly demeanor of the Uchiha.
The well-informed shop owner had already learned that these people were former members of the Root organization and had previously been in charge of patrolling streets one through four.
"We Uchiha are doing a good job, why should we be replaced?"
The shop owners were quite dissatisfied, and some went to the police station to report the situation.
However, they discovered that Hyuga Hizashi was no longer there, and in his place was an older member of the Hyuga clan.
He seemed unaware of the garrison's reshuffle and was unwilling to discuss it with civilians, only arrogantly replying, "This is a normal personnel adjustment within the garrison."
He then said no more and waved for them to leave.
The shop owner was furious after being kicked out; how could someone from Hyuga be so arrogant?
On his way back, he encountered Hinata Hayato.
Hyuga Yuto made a name for himself when he captured Jiraiya last time, and many people in the village know him.
The shop owner grabbed Hyuga Hayato and complained, "Why isn't the security team's reception desk staffed by Lord Hizashi anymore?"
"You know how rude that old man was? He wouldn't even look at me properly."
Hyuga Hayato quickly covered his mouth: "Keep your voice down, those are members of the main branch."
"Well..."
The shop owner lowered his voice: "Why is your Hyuga main family managing the security force?"
Hyuga Hayato looked around and said, "This is not something a branch family member like me can interfere with. Lord Hizashi has already returned to his clan's territory."
Now the entire security force is under the control of members of the imperial clan.
The boss said with dissatisfaction, "When are you going to replace the Uchiha Guards?"
“You don’t know, those people at the root, with their cold words and sarcastic remarks, don’t seem like good people at all.”
Hyuga Hayato shrugged: "With Hizashi-sama not here, there's nothing I can do."
The boss could only leave, seething with anger.
Chapter 66 Kawasaki's Strategy! At its zenith! Unfathomable!
In the Konoha 8th Street area, many business owners, after failing to reason with the security guards, still opened their shops as usual.
