Reborn Naruto, I rolled my eyes to the sky

Of course we didn't know about the meeting in the Hokage Building. After becoming students of Sensei Jiraiya, the three of us learned new techniques that suited us.

In the process of carrying out missions, especially the actual combat with the rebel Mist Ninja, I have gained a certain grasp of the new techniques I learned. Now is the time to test the results of my learning.

"Kushina, do you want to experience the Eight Gates Ninjutsu that I just mastered?" Seeing Kushina's eager look, I also invited her. After all, I often practice with Minato and Shinichi, and Minato is a speed-type ninja, and Shinichi is a ninjutsu-type ninja, so we often don't enjoy the practice.

Kushina is a member of the Uzumaki clan and is qualified to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. She also has first-rate talent. The Uzumaki clan's huge vitality and chakra also make them more inclined to be physical ninjas, which makes her a perfect opponent for me.

"Okay, I'll let you see my progress. I'm going to break your undefeated record today." Kushina agreed. After all, Kushina had a high winning rate in the competitions with Shinichi and Minato, but she had never gotten the upper hand at my hands, and she had long been unwilling to accept this.

After this period of training and practice, I have become more proficient in the Eight Gates Ninjutsu, especially my previous idea of ​​keeping the Eight Gates Ninjutsu open all the time, which has made some progress.

After all, the principle of the Eight Gates Technique is to open the self-limitations of the human body and explore the potential of the human body. Theoretically, if the physical fitness is strong enough, the eight gates can be opened frequently.

Just like opening the Ren and Du meridians in martial arts novels, it is an essential improvement in the level of life and does not need to be temporarily opened during battle. It is only used as a forbidden combat technique.

With the physical strength that I have improved through my unremitting practice of the Twelve Earthly Branches Fundamental Seals, I can now often open the Kai Gate without causing any burden to my body. In simple terms, I have already opened the Kai Gate among the Eight Gates.

Every time one of the Eight Gates is opened, physical strength, chakra and even pupil power will increase exponentially. So with my current strength, it is no problem for me to be on par with the jonin. Even if I don't care about the damage to my body and force open the last few of the Eight Gates, I don't know if I can reach the strength of an elite jonin.

Although Kushina has an extraordinary bloodline and good talent, there is still a big gap between her and me in terms of continuous training and practice every day since childhood. So she has not defeated me yet. This is a gap in hard power.

Kushina also knows the difference in strength between herself and me, but admitting defeat is not her character: "I'm about to start, watch me."

The Uzumaki clan is famous in the ninja world for their vigorous vitality, huge chakra and powerful sealing techniques. As she grows older, Kushina's strength is now in a period of rapid growth.

It's been almost a month since Kushina and I last fought each other, so this is a good opportunity to see her progress.

So when faced with Kushina's powerful straight punch, I didn't dodge or use soft fists to relieve the force. Instead, I stretched out my hand and took the punch.

Feeling the strength in her palm, she should have the power of a physical skill type Chunin, which is quite good for a child under ten years old. Before I practiced the Eight Gates Ninjutsu, I was not much stronger than her.

But as I get older, and practice the Twelve Earthly Branches Seals and the Eight Gates Ninjutsu, my strength is now in a period of explosive growth. Kushina is no longer my opponent.

I turned my palm into a claw, grabbed Kushina's fist, exerted force with my arm, and pulled Kushina towards me, while my other palm and fingers were like a knife, striking towards Kushina's neck.

Although these moves did not involve any sophisticated techniques, they were based on the suppression of strength and speed. Kushina did not expect that after not fighting for a few days, my progress would be so terrifying.

Seeing that she couldn't break free from my control, Kushina had no choice but to squat on the ground to avoid my knife, and then she pressed the ground with a seal: "Sealing Technique - Diamond Realm."

I also changed my tactics and pressed towards Kushina's head, but was blocked by Kushina's sealing technique. Kushina also took this opportunity to get out of the way, and with a few somersaults she distanced herself from me.

"Sealing technique with one hand? The speed is also very fast. Good, Kushina, you have made great progress." I exclaimed in surprise.

However, Kushina did not look happy, because although the Kongokai successfully blocked my attack, it did not completely defend against it. There was a palm print clearly printed on the back of her neck.

This is also the boxing style that I perfected during my battle with the Mist Ninja in this mission. It combines the fierceness of the Konoha Steel Fist that is unleashed by physical strength, and the softness of the Hyuga Soft Fist that is unleashed by the Hyuga clan's special chakra. It's one punch with two forces, combining both hardness and softness. I can be considered a master of physical techniques, and it's not an exaggeration to call me a genius.

"Damn it, you're so good, but I'm no match for you now." Although we only exchanged one move, Kushina had already discovered the gap between her and me. Her strength, speed, and force-generating skills were suppressed by me in all aspects, so it would be extremely difficult for her to defeat me.

However, Kushina was not discouraged, and turned to look at Minato: "I heard that you have learned the space-time ninjutsu Flying Thunder God developed by the Second Hokage. Let us see it."
