Chapter 870: Ming Ke - Children's Friendship

"I don't like this arrogant guy!" Naruto angrily moved away from Sasuke.

"That's what children's friendship is like." Hozuki remembered that Gojo Aiko and Gojo Satoru were in the same situation a few years ago.

"A ninja's childhood is very short, and the world of adults is different from that of children." Hozuki threatened with evil humor, "You should cherish your childhood friends, because you may not meet such good friends in the future."

Naruto then sat back down shyly.

"Do you have any friends?" asked Aiko Gojo curiously.

"Shikamaru and Choji! Kiba and I often play together!" Naruto said a little embarrassedly, "Sakura-chan should be counted as well..."

Although I like Sasuke more...

"Why do I feel like... you actually have a lot of friends..." Gojo Aiko looked at Sasuke, but Sasuke said nothing and silently shifted his gaze away.

"Sasuke, you don't have any friends, do you?" Gojo Aiko said in surprise, "Naruto, you win!"

Naruto never thought that he would win one day, but this doesn't seem to be a happy thing...

"No, Sasuke! Didn't we agree to make more friends?!" He immediately became anxious. If he didn't make more friends, he would have no partners to work hard with when building a country in the future!

"The world is not just Konoha Village." Sasuke said coolly, "There are plenty of friends outside."

The friends in the village are left to Naruto.

Naruto felt something was wrong, but he didn't catch the flash of inspiration at that moment and could only mutter something like "friends in the village are also important."

"Mr. Zhongli~" Gojo Aiko looked at the silly Naruto and quietly approached Zhongli, "I want to learn how to shoot!"

This way, her future dolls will have an extra skill!

"I want to learn too!" Naruto thought it was a pistol, so he immediately came over.

"You have learned sword techniques, so you should have a good foundation for spear techniques." Zhongli rubbed a rock spear on the spot, "But spear techniques are not that easy to practice."

Compared with sword skills, it is easier to hurt yourself with a gun, especially when you jump or do a backflip or something, and you might fall if you are not careful.

"So it's this gun... Isn't this not suitable for ninjas?" Naruto felt that the gun was too high-profile, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to learn more, right?

"I recommend the mace more." When Gui Deng saw Zhongli stand up, he immediately occupied the entire sofa and lay down on it to watch the fun.

"The mace is more conspicuous, right?!" And Naruto remembered that Hozuki's mace was extremely heavy and he couldn't lift it at all.

"As long as you can defeat the opponent, you don't have to care about such details." Hozuki earnestly taught Naruto to broaden his horizons. "Not all the missions you ninjas take are assassination missions. Most of the time they are open and aboveboard battles, right? Then of course you have to use simpler and more brutal weapons."

Naruto had not seen many ninja fights, so he scratched his head and looked at Sasuke.

Sasuke...same thing actually.

Although he has read many books and learned a lot of knowledge related to ninjas, there are still some differences between what is on paper and what is put into practice in reality.

However, he agreed with what Hozuki said. There was no need to pursue a specific style of weapon. As long as you had the ability, anything could be used to fight.

"It would be great if I could also use elemental power." Gojo Aiko felt that her simple marksmanship was enough for ordinary people, but it was completely not enough when she encountered a world with a special ability system.

"The chakra... and the ripples..." Sasuke hadn't even started learning yet, but he was already thinking about how to integrate various abilities into his marksmanship.

"This kind of big opening and closing ability tests a person's whole body strength." Hozuki saw that Gojo Aiko seemed a little top-heavy. She had indeed lacked some exercise in recent times.

"Your action..." He even saw that for a moment, Gojo Aiko seemed to be swinging the gun forward.

It's just like playing tennis... It seems like I've been completely assimilated into the tennis club.

The basketball club of my junior high school years expressed dissatisfaction!

"You can also learn stick techniques. If you want to know which one is easier to learn and more effective, I recommend the naginata." Zhongli looked at Naruto, then at Sasuke. "Ninjas should learn physical techniques, right? Curse masters and demon hunters will learn them, as will ripple displays. Physical techniques are the most basic combat skills. Once you learn this, you will be able to master the others more quickly."

"Taijutsu... doesn't seem to be very..." Naruto feels that the ninja school only teaches the most basic Taijutsu, and there seems to be nothing else?

"It seems that there is someone in Konoha Village who is particularly good at physical skills." Sasuke saw Naruto's confused look and knew that he definitely knew nothing.

But this cannot be blamed on him, mainly because the rules and regulations of Konoha Village's Ninja School itself are not perfect.

For example, the ninjutsu taught in ninja schools are very low-level, and ordinary ninjas can only learn the basics in school before graduating.

The big families all have their own ancestral ninjutsu, many of which are secret and exclusive, and outsiders have no way to learn them.

Ordinary civilian ninjas can only study on their own after graduation. Although there are places like libraries in Konoha Village, the ninja school pays very little attention to cultural courses, so how can you expect these people to study well on their own?

The most important thing is that everyone's learning ability is different, and the time it takes for a ninja to go to the battlefield is too fast, and you may not have time to learn more ninjutsu before you go to the battlefield. Then... uh, you become cannon fodder.

Naruto is not only a "commoner ninja", he doesn't even have the guidance of his parents. In addition, he doesn't like to study and there is no one to teach him in time, so it seems like he has learned nothing in school.

Although the Uchiha clan is gone, Sasuke was once the son of the clan leader, so he knows much more than Naruto.

One of Naruto's parents was also a civilian ninja. Minato Namikaze studied diligently and created some ninjutsu on his own. With his talent and hard work, he earned the name of Yellow Flash.

Although Uzumaki Kushina was born into the Uzumaki clan, the Uzumaki clan was also exterminated, so she is not much better than Namikaze Minato.

So even if Naruto follows his parents now, he won't be able to learn more.

Especially since he himself doesn't like studying.

Naruto scratched his head, so they had to learn Taijutsu first?

"Let's exercise first." Hozuki felt that Naruto and Sasuke seemed to have been slacking off recently.

The main reason is that they don’t have the conditions for training here.

"Yoshi! Why don't we run to the sanatorium?" Naruto suggested enthusiastically.

Gojo Aiko turned and walked away, but Naruto immediately stepped forward and grabbed her: "Sasuke, come on! Let's go find Conan together!"

Gojo Aiko: "Let go!"

She didn't want to run to the sanatorium at all! It was far away!
