This ninja in Naruto is unscientific

Chapter 256 Kana's Practice Partners

A few days later.

In the courtyard of the Senju clan's territory, where Kana was usually the only one struggling with the wooden blocks covered in graffiti, today it was much more lively than usual.

"Minato, is... is this thing really for learning ninjutsu?"

Genma Shiranui, with a senbon stick dangling from his mouth, crossed his arms and looked suspiciously at the pile of wooden blocks that Kana had pieced together haphazardly on the stone table.

He was wearing a genin vest, clearly having just been freed from a C-rank mission and forcibly dragged here.

Beside him, Namiashi Raido, also a genin, had a serious expression.

He was holding a wooden board engraved with intricate sealing techniques, examining it closely against the sunlight, trying to discern something from the distorted lines.

Opposite to Chanel sat a well-mannered-looking young man named Dieyiwashi.

Like Kana, he was a sixth-year student at the Ninja Academy. At that moment, he was holding a pen and paper, quickly recording the direction of each rune on the wooden block.

"Damn it! We're just missing this one piece!"

Chanel bit her lip, clutching a piece of wood with serrated edges, and tried to force it into an obviously wrong notch, sweating profusely in her anxiety.

"Why can't it fit! They look exactly the same!"

"Idiot Kana, the direction of your chakra circulation is reversed."

An annoying voice drifted down from the tree.

Wearing his signature orange goggles, Obito Uchiha hung upside down from a tree branch, holding half an apple in his hand, munching on it while mercilessly mocking the tree.

"Look at that line. It's clearly meant to curve to the left, but you insisted on trying to push it to the right. Of course it won't fit! Even I, a genius from the Uchiha clan, could see that!"

"Shut up! If you're so tough, come down here and fight!" Kana angrily grabbed a piece of scrap wood and threw it at Obito.

"Ouch!" Obito lost his grip and fell from the tree, landing face-first in the dirt.

Seeing the chaotic scene, Minato Namikaze, standing in the shadows of the corridor, rubbed his temples helplessly.

"Che..."

Minato turned his head and looked at the culprit beside him, who was holding a teacup and watching the show with a contented expression.

"I'm only teaching Kana, why are you dumping all these little guys on me?"

Nishikawa Tetsu put down his teacup and shrugged confidently:

"Squad Leader Shuimen, this is called maximizing resource utilization."

"Think about it, since you're going to create a shadow clone to play the treasure hunt with Kana, it's the same whether you're herding one sheep or a whole flock."

"Genma Shiranui, Raido Namiashi, and Iwashi Tsubasa are the three I carefully selected. They are the most stable in chakra control and the most suitable for training the 'Flying Thunder Formation Technique'."

Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the three people who were seriously studying the runes.

"Look, even though they're just genin and students right now, once they've been exposed to the logic behind the construction of these spatial coordinates, they should be able to easily master the Flying Thunder Formation technique, right?"

"What about Obito?" Minato pointed to Obito, who was getting up from the ground and dusting off his butt. "The Uchiha clan isn't good at sealing techniques."

"Obito..."

Nishikawa Tetsu's eyes were deep. Of course, he couldn't say that this was to develop Obito's abnormal Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan, because due to the amount of chakra, Obito was not yet able to properly use his eyes.

"He may not be good at sealing techniques, but he has excellent eyesight," Nishikawa Tetsu said with a straight face, spouting nonsense. "Space-time ninjutsu requires not only calculation but also perception. Let him practice spatial perception so that when he encounters enemies who know space-time ninjutsu on the battlefield, at least he won't be instantly killed, right?"

Minato thought about it and realized that Che's words actually made some sense, although there weren't many people in the entire ninja world who knew space-time ninjutsu.

However, as his disciple, it wouldn't hurt for Obito to learn more.

"Alright, since you've brought them here, let's teach them together."

Minato sighed, walked down the corridor, and clapped his hands.

"Alright, everyone stop for a moment."

Upon hearing the sound of the water gate, the noisy boys immediately quieted down and stood obediently in a row.

Minato looked at them with a smile, his eyes revealing the authority of a teacher.

"Starting today, you will undergo a special training program with Kana."

"Special training?" Obito's eyes lit up. "Are you going to teach us those super cool ninjutsu where you disappear in a flash, Minato-sensei?"

"Dream on."

Minato ruthlessly shattered his illusions.

"The Flying Thunder God Technique is an S-rank forbidden technique. Your current chakra reserves and nerve reaction speed are simply not enough to withstand the tearing sensation of a spatial jump."

"What I'm going to teach you is the foundation of Flying Thunder God—the perception and construction of spatial coordinates."

Minato walked to the stone table and scrambled all the wooden blocks that Kana had pieced together haphazardly.

"Lesson 1: Puzzle Treasure Hunt"

Minato picked up a piece of wood, and a faint blue chakra shone from his fingertips.

"These wooden blocks are engraved with fragments of spatial coordinates. Your task is not to look at their shapes with your eyes, but to use your chakra to sense the internal pathways."

"Only when the chakra frequencies are perfectly aligned can the circuit be connected, and the wooden blocks will automatically adhere together."

"This is called spatial resonance."

Minato suspended the wooden block infused with chakra in mid-air and then looked at the crowd.

"You five will split into two groups. Genma Shiranui, Raido Namiashi, and Iwashi Tsubaki will be in one group. Your goal is to learn how to coordinate as a group, adjust your chakra frequencies to be completely synchronized, and work together to piece together a complete coordinate diagram. If you cannot synchronize, the wooden blocks will repel each other."

These are the basic requirements for the Flying Thunder Formation technique.

The three exchanged glances, and although they felt it would be difficult, their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

"As for Kana and Obito..."

Minato looked at these two most troublesome guys.

"You two form a group. Obito, you can use your Sharingan to observe the flow of chakra that Kana injects into the wood block, and then try to imitate and cooperate with her."

"Kana, your task is to control the infusion of chakra and guide Obito to complete the puzzle."

"Huh? I have to listen to this little girl?" Obito was extremely unwilling.

"Who needs your help? You're so clumsy, I can put it together by myself!" Kana retorted without backing down.

"Protest invalid."

Minato, with a smile, issued his ultimatum.

"If we can't piece together two complete coordinate maps before sunset today, dinner will be canceled. Also, all those high-end desserts sponsored by Vice Minister Nishikawa will be confiscated—and given to Kakashi."

"What?!"

Upon hearing that dinner was canceled and dessert was confiscated, Kana and Obito immediately shut up. Their eyes clashed fiercely in mid-air before they simultaneously turned and pounced on the pile of wood.

"Hurry, hurry! Obito-nii, bring me that hooked piece!"

"Okay, okay! Don't rush me! My Sharingan is starting to see double!"

Watching the boys instantly enter a state of intense competition, Nishikawa Tetsu picked up his teacup with satisfaction and took a sip.

"See, Minato. This is the power of competition. With these 'catfish' around, Kana's potential will definitely be maximized."

Minato looked at his disciples struggling with the wooden block and smiled helplessly.

"Hopefully, but teaching five children with different personalities the basics of space-time ninjutsu..."

Minato rubbed his temples, which were throbbing slightly.

"I think I might need to take a good rest in a while, Che."
