Civilian Naruto: Invincible from the Eight Gates

The water was so strong that it was hard to breathe.

"Ahem~ Water... Water..."

There was no part of his body that didn't hurt, and his throat was burning as if he had swallowed charcoal.

Ebisu called out instinctively before he regained consciousness.

The cool water flowed into his mouth, and he swallowed it in big gulps.

[I... was hit by the enemy's water escape, where's Izumi... did they escape...]

The memory before he fainted was awakened, and Ebisu suddenly opened his eyes!

He struggled to get up and observe the surrounding situation, and then found that he was no longer on the battlefield, but in a residential house.

On the side, Nojiri Oki supported him, and Uchiha Izumi was holding a bowl of water and feeding him.

"Great! Ahem... you're still alive, great."

"Where's Musashi? Is he okay?"

"Teacher Ebisu, Musashi is fine, he went to find food." Nojiri Oki said.

"Teacher Ebisu, are you awake?!"

The door opened, and Suzumiya Musashi, who was carrying a basket of food, saw Ebisu when he entered the door and said in surprise.

"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay." A huge sense of relief surged in his heart.

He and Sarutobi Hiruzen had guaranteed the safety of several people. If the whole army was wiped out the first time he led the team, he would never forgive himself even if he died.

Then, he suddenly thought of something.

"What's the situation now? Where are the enemies? How did you escape?"

"Teacher Ebisu, thanks to the large number of detonating tags you cast at the end!" Suzumiya Musashi said hurriedly: "The enemy was attracted by your fire escape and failed to completely avoid the detonating tags, and was seriously injured by the explosion."

"Before Oki and I took action, the enemy saw that the situation was not good and evacuated on the spot."

"You should be recuperating in that corner now. You were too seriously injured, so we dared not stay there and ran for a day before getting here."

"Really?" Ebisu felt like he was dreaming.

The detonating tags actually hit.

"Really. Teacher Ebisu, you are so amazing!" Nojiri Oki said on the side: "I saw a fire in the distance, and the enemies were all blown away!"

"If the opponent was unlucky, he might be dead now."

"My strength... is my luck so good?"

Uchiha Izumi: "... Yeah."

Hearing Izumi say this, Ebisu recalled the situation at that time in a daze.

I was ready to face death, so the power of Fire Release was indeed stronger than usual.

Well, the kunai was thrown with great force, so it was normal that the opponent was careless and could not dodge it.

Sure enough, my level of "Special Jonin" was not obtained out of thin air.

"Haha, cough! cough! cough! ~ Haha, my strength is recognized by the Hokage." A smug smile appeared on his scarred face.

"Izumi, what's wrong with you? You look a little wrong?" Ebisu found that Izumi's expression was complicated.

Well, it was very wrong.

"Are you concerned about the teacher's injury?" He smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay."

"The teacher was just a little careless at the time and fell into a disadvantage. When we return to Konoha, the ninjas from the medical class will take action and he will be well soon."

"Yes, yes, yes, we are still waiting for the teacher to get better quickly and lead us to continue the mission." Nojiri Oki said, and then peeled the fruit brought back by Suzumiya Musashi.

"Teacher, eat more, you will recover faster."

After eating, the feeling of fatigue came up again, and Ebisu fell asleep again soon.

Although he was already in the territory of the Land of Fire, Ebisu was still worried about unexpected situations.

The fear given to him by the enemy's jonin had not completely dissipated. Considering the safety of the three students, after resting in place for a day, they confirmed that they would not die for a while, and they hurried on their way to get back to Konoha as soon as possible.

His injuries were serious, and it was definitely not possible to run like when he came.

But Suzumiya Musashi had plenty of strength.

Just carry Ebisu on your back.

"Musashi, Musashi, go slower!"

On the way, Suzumiya Musashi carried Ebisu on his back and ran all the way.

Even running ahead of several people.

The oncoming wind made Ebisu's weak voice a little unclear.

"Teacher, what did you say? Too slow?"

"Then I'll speed up!"

"I~speak~slowly~" Ebisu tried to speak louder.

Because Ebisu's head was a little far from his ears.

Suzumiya Musashi still couldn't hear clearly.

He exerted force with both feet and suddenly braked!

Ebisu's upper body, which was originally pulled backward by the wind, suddenly leaned forward and hit Suzumiya Musashi's back hard.

His eyes bulged.

Suzumiya Musashi wanted to hear Ebisu's words clearly.

What did Ebisu say. "Teacher Ebisu, what did you say just now... Hey? Why are you silent... Teacher Ebisu, wake up!"

After speeding all the way, they finally rushed back to Konoha.

Suzumiya Musashi was concerned about Ebisu's safety, and immediately took him to Konoha Hospital for treatment by the medical team.

Perhaps because the injury was delayed for a long time, it looked a little more serious than before.

The three of them waited in the hospital until Ebisu woke up, and they were relieved only after the medical staff confirmed that there was no danger.

Then Uchiha Izumi also began to receive treatment. She was hit by the wind escape of Suma Rock Collapse and suffered internal injuries. She also needed to recuperate for a while.

Suzumiya Musashi asked the medical staff for some ointment to repair skin burns.

He used lightning chakra to stimulate the activity of his body during the battle. The first stage of lightning escape activation stimulation was far from mature, so the burns on his body were not light.

In order to prevent Ayame from noticing the abnormality, he had to get better as soon as possible.

For the next period of time, the team entered the rest phase.

Uchiha Izumi will have to rest for half a month, and Suzumiya Musashi will be about the same. The damage to the body caused by the Eight Gates of the Ninjutsu is still unavoidable at this stage, and coupled with the damage caused by the Lightning Chakra, he plans to suspend the intensive practice of physical skills for half a month.

All the extra energy is put into ninjutsu.

As for Ebisu, the medical staff's advice is not to go on missions for three months.

Suzumiya Musashi and Nojiri Oki naturally agree with not going on missions.

To the surprise of the two, Uchiha Izumi, who was originally thought to be unhappy, did not say much.

Nojiri Oki also started his own ninjutsu practice.

Although he did not say that he could not play a role in danger, he felt guilty in his heart.

He felt that he was too weak to drag down his teammates and could not help at all.

So it was rare that he did not study art creation all day long, but devoted himself to the practice of new ninjutsu.

Suzumiya Musashi also took the opportunity of the pause in physical skills to plan the next training goals.

Needless to say, physical skills are his primary goal.

The second is to improve the practice of lightning escape.

Although the lightning attribute is not as good as the wind attribute in terms of his chakra properties, the unique point of lightning attribute is that it can cooperate to improve the strength of the body.

He attaches great importance to it after the "Eight Gates of Ninjutsu".

The activation of lightning escape plus the "Eight Gates of Ninjutsu" can take his physical combat power to the next level.

Then comes the sealing technique and wind escape ninjutsu.

The sealing technique is the main means to limit the excessive damage of the side effects of the "Eight Gates of Ninjutsu" in the future, and it is also the only technique taught by Kushina to him, which cannot be left behind.

Wind escape is his best chakra attribute, and it can also effectively improve his offensive means.

As for other attribute ninjutsu, he can only study them when he is bored as a relaxation.
