Opening: Minato became my brother

"Hurry up!"

"As long as you still have strength, you must speed up! On the battlefield, every second you hold on, you will have a greater chance of survival!"

Obstacle training is being conducted on a specially customized training ground at the root.

This place is decorated with many small scenes, such as dilapidated houses, realistic quagmires, dense jungles and wilderness...

Although it looks small, it is actually as spacious as four football fields.

Traps suddenly popped up one after another from those inconspicuous corners, including wooden stakes, flying knives, kunai and even ground spikes...

Watanabe Qing stood on the high platform at the edge of the training ground, his eyes fixed on Yueyuele who was constantly moving, dodging and running towards the target, while constantly taking notes in his hands.

This is a training ground specially built by the Root, dedicated to training Root members who have just started to refine chakra. And this week, the entire training ground has been occupied by Yue Le alone.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye Yue Le has been participating in training for three whole months.

Watanabe Aoyaya had already told her that a new class would be added tonight - the method of refining chakra.

This news made Yue Le very excited. He could finally get in touch with the power that those ninjas possessed...

Power. Only with power can he live better... and take revenge!

But, revenge... who should I seek? They were just a bunch of wandering ninjas. From Yue Le's current position, they were just a bunch of scum who could be wiped out in an instant if they asked Grandpa Danzo for help. It was not even known whether they survived the war...

This made Yue Le sad for a while.

After three full months of intensive physical training, he finally gained Danzo's recognition and was qualified to learn chakra refinement.

Yue Le bent down slightly and gasped for breath.

At this moment, the sun was high in the sky, and the hot air was continuously inhaled into his body. He felt his lungs burning as if they were roasted by fire, and his heartbeat was so violent that it seemed to jump out of his chest, frantically transporting oxygen to all parts of his body.

After nine months of careful nursing, Yue Le is no longer the skinny and frail man who would collapse at the slightest gust of wind.

Now, his body is full of strong tendons, but not too thick. His body lines are graceful and smooth, and he is wearing a slim and highly stretchable training suit.

His hair, which was originally messy and looked like weeds, has now become smooth, with the roots turning orange-brown, tied into a bunch and hanging behind his head. His eyes are sharp and firm, full of expectations and confidence for the future.

Yue Le had already seen blood in the first month of special training. Danzo cut the tendons of a spy from another country and placed him in front of him.

The spy was covered in wounds and looked horrible. There was hardly a piece of intact skin on his body, and it seemed as if he would breathe his last at any time.

Perhaps there is no need for Yue Le to make the final move. Just leave him here and wait for a while. Within half a day, he will die on his own and his soul will return to the Pure Land.

All the information in his mind had already been stolen by the Root Organization, and the only value of his existence was to satisfy Yue Le's desire to see blood with his own hands. This was also Yue Le's breakthrough.

Being a ninja is not as simple as playing house.

The kunai held tightly in his hand flashed coldly under the bright light. Yue Le's eyes were as steady as an abyss, without any trace of the innocence and childishness that should belong to his age.

As calm and composed as poultry facing slaughter, Yue Le, after experiencing all kinds of hardships in this world, has become a completely different person from what he was a few months ago.

Perhaps, this is something that must be experienced in order to grow up...

Yue Le raised the corner of his mouth slightly, as if he remembered something interesting, but this expression was seen by Danzo and other bystanders as a sign of the boy's contempt for killing.

Just as Orochimaru said before, this boy is a natural born ninja.

His steps were steady, and he made no sound while walking.

Standing quietly in front of the spy, bending over, muttering,

"Rest in peace...I will live on for you, don't worry..."

puff-

In an instant, scarlet blood flowed out like a fountain along the gaps between the sharp kunai, quickly dyeing the ground beneath their feet red.

The spy who was hit in the vitals let out a hoarse and low gasp.

“Haha…haha…haha…”

As his throat was filled with blood, his breathing became extremely difficult and his body was shaking violently and uncontrollably.

Those originally cloudy and lifeless eyes were now staring at Yue Le, with their eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets. However, after just a moment, he was completely dead.

Yue Le picked up the blood-stained rag beside him expressionlessly and carefully wiped off the blood stains on the kunai.

Immediately, he reached out and gently closed the spy's eyes, but just as he closed them, the spy's eyes opened again on their own.

Close again...Open again...Close again...Open again...

Brother, are you really dead or faking your death?

After repeating this several times, Yue Le simply tore off a piece of cloth that was not yet stained with blood from the spy's body and covered the pair of eyes that seemed like they would never close.

After doing all this, Yue Le whispered to himself: "This should be enough for you to rest in peace."

Standing up, Yue Le quietly looked at Danzo and Orochimaru in front of him, his tone flat, as if he didn't care at all that he had just killed a life with his own hands.

"He has no signs of life, teacher, grandpa."

"Haha, very good, very good..."

Danzo nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

......

"I told you before that chakra is a substance produced by the fusion of physical energy and spiritual energy, and physical energy is the most critical link!"

"After months of arduous physical training, your body now has a solid foundation for refining chakra. And this meditation method in front of you is the result of our careful research. After many experiments, it was finally formed with the most significant results. Then I said, you should write it down."

"Concentrate your mental power, close your eyes, eliminate all external disturbances, and devote yourself to meditation. You should know that chakra is the mysterious power that the human body is born with, and it is hidden in every corner of the body."

"Concentrate your mind, hold your breath, focus your mind, breathe slowly, and slowly mobilize the chakra hidden in the cells, allowing it to flow along the acupoints and meridians in the body..."

"Stay calm and keep your breathing steady and long. Then, gradually awaken the chakras hidden deep in the cells and guide them to flow slowly along the acupuncture points and meridians in the body..."

......

In the sealed room, a stick of sandalwood was burning leisurely. As a young master of the root, Yue Le used sandalwood that was made from the best treasures of the Nara family.

These sandalwoods not only incorporate a small amount of precious medicinal materials such as rosin, white ginseng, bauhinia bark, frankincense, cinnamon, drynaria and angelica, but also have many wonderful uses such as calming the mind, replenishing qi and blood, and strengthening muscles and bones.

At this moment, Yue Le was sitting upright on the soft cushion, motionless like a sculpture.

He closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and slowly calmed his mind...

In an instant, everything around him seemed to gradually disappear from his perception, leaving only the surging energy in his body flowing freely like a trickle of water.

Carefully trying to mobilize these energies, awakening their potential power bit by bit.

As time passed, the sun slowly set, gradually sliding from the towering mountain top to the foot of the mountain. The brilliant and gorgeous sunset glowed on this land filled with the will of fire, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

But Yue Le was unaware of the passage of time. He was immersed in the world of cultivation and had spent a whole afternoon in the secret room.

......

“Huh~~~”

“I, succeeded?!”

As he poured all his energy into his spirit, Yue Le suddenly felt the chakra taking shape in his body, slowly gathering together, and finally forming a stream that flowed slowly in his body. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and his eyes flashed with uncontrollable excitement.

“I did it!”

Yue Le, extremely excited, stood up suddenly, walked quickly to the door of the secret room, and pushed it open with force.

At first glance, I saw Watanabe Ao quietly waiting outside the secret room.

"Uncle Qing! I succeeded!"

Yue Le couldn't hide her joy and couldn't wait to share the good news with Watanabe Qing.

Watanabe Qing looked at the ecstatic young man in front of him, his eyes full of admiration and satisfaction, and said with a smile: "As expected of a young master, you are gifted. The adults will definitely be very happy when they know about this."

"The master is still working. Do you want to go and tell him?"

"Well, I'll go over first, Uncle Qing. By the way, prepare more dinner. I'm so hungry now!"

"Okay, Master."

After greeting Watanabe Ao, Yue Le walked quickly towards Danzo's office. Yue Le's steps were brisk at this time. He had finally come into contact with the extraordinary power and was one step closer to survival!

......

dong dong——

"Enter."

"Grandpa, I extracted chakra!"

"Is that so... Good, keep up the good work."

The chakra that had just been extracted and was still slightly thin was continuously gathered in the palm of his hand.

It was seen that the color of the chakra in Yue Le's palm was unexpectedly different from that of ordinary people - it showed a touch of elegant and refreshing green tone, as fresh and tender as the first buds of spring, exuding an intoxicating and vibrant breath.

"Hmm! Grandpa, can I start learning ninjutsu now?"

Yuele looked at Danzo expectantly.

"Yes, starting from tomorrow, Qing will teach you the most basic and practical 'Three Body Techniques'. This is a necessary skill for a ninja. After you have mastered it thoroughly, we will consider learning other more advanced ninjutsu."

Danzo also had a smile in his eyes and responded to Yue Le with a smile.

“No problem! I’ll definitely work harder!”

Yue Le responded confidently, saying that she would not let her grandfather and Uncle Qing down.

"By the way, Grandpa, you haven't had dinner yet, how about we go have dinner together? I have asked Uncle Qing to prepare a sumptuous meal in advance."

Yue Le couldn't suppress his excitement, as he finally came into contact with the true power of a ninja.

"Well, well, let's go together."

Danzo looked back at the case files on the desk, then gently rubbed Yue Le's head.

Yue Le walked forward happily and held Danzo's calloused hands tightly.

Although Danzo's palms were rough and calloused from years of wear and tear and early training, the touch made Yue Le feel particularly kind and warm.

He lowered his head slightly, his eyes fixed on the cheerful steps moving forward under his feet and on himself being led by the hand, his heart filled with joy and happiness.

At this moment, Danzo also looked at the lively and lovely Xiao Yuele beside him with eyes full of love and satisfaction.

This little fellow's talent is truly amazing. He successfully completed the chakra refining process in just one afternoon. Moreover, his chakra contains such a rich and intense vitality that even Tsunade would be slightly inferior to him...

Maybe we can add a course of medical ninjutsu for Yue Le, and ask Tsunade to teach him. That crazy girl loves to come to the Root all day long, so let her be a teacher for my grandson.

Thinking of this, Danzo's mouth corners curled up slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes, which was just seen by Yue Le who turned around.

"Grandpa, are you thinking about something happy?"

Danzo's face returned to calm as if by magic, as if nothing had happened.

"Children should stay out of adult matters."

"Oh......"

Yuele shut up.

"Don't ask, don't ask... just a little bit..."

...........
