Chapter 137 Practical Exercise
(For the picture of Uchiha Satsuki, see the discussion of this chapter in the previous chapter)
One month later,
This morning Iruka explained some methods and techniques of throwing shuriken. As he explained the techniques, he used the chalk in his hand to hit the students who were not paying attention one by one.
"Did everyone see clearly? And the students who were just hit by me, please stand up and listen to the class."
Soon it was time for lunch break.
Hinata took out her luxurious lunch box as usual, and then she looked at Ning Ye expectantly. In the past month, she had exchanged lunch boxes with Ning Ye from time to time, and Ning Ye was used to it.
Seeing this, Ning Ye took out the lunch box he had made. After opening it, Hinata showed a surprised expression.
"Why is there only rice? Ning Ye, did you forget to cook? Do you want me to share some with you?"
Ning Ye shook his head and smiled.
"Okay, don't worry."
Then he took out a thermos cup and after opening the lid, the fragrance filled the entire classroom again.
“It’s curry~”
“What a beautiful color.”
"Hmm, the aroma is very strong, it must taste delicious."
"..."
The students also took out their lunch boxes, smelling the aroma while eating them. It seemed that they were also enjoying Ning Ye's delicious food together.
Ning Ye poured some of the curry on his rice, and asked Hinata and Naruko if they wanted some. The two nodded in tacit understanding, so Ning Ye left the rest of the curry to them.
Naruko gave her crepe to Ning Ye, while Hinata gave Ning Ye a piece of premium steak.
The crepe was okay, but the steak that was bigger than Ning Ye’s face was really a bit scary. However, Ning Ye was no longer surprised by this.
"Well, it still tastes as happy as always."
Hinata enjoyed the curry made by Ning Ye very much, and couldn't help but close her eyes, feeling the impact of the fantasy of food. On the other side of Ning Ye, although Naruko didn't have such an experience like Hinata, she also showed a happy expression on her face.
Ning Ye was thinking about the areas that needed improvement on the steak and crepe.
……
In the afternoon,
Iruka led everyone to the training ground on campus.
"Okay, today we are going to have extracurricular training. In the morning, the teacher taught you the shuriken throwing techniques, so now we have to turn them into facts."
"Next, each of you will fire ten shurikens. You have to hit the target on the opposite side to score points. But the most important thing is to pay attention to safety. You have to pay attention to your own safety and also be careful not to hurt others. Did you hear that clearly, students?"
"I heard it clearly."
"Very good, then teacher, let me demonstrate first, everyone pay attention to my movements."
After saying that, Iruka took out a shuriken and threw it slowly so that they could see clearly. His body was slow, but the shuriken was not, and it quickly hit the bull's eye. Then he gradually increased the speed of his hands, and the shuriken also hit the bull's eye one by one.
"Wow, that's amazing."
"Yeah yeah."
"..."
Some children from ordinary families who were not from the family felt that Iruka's move was very powerful. However, children from the family or those whose family members were ninjas felt that Iruka's moves were very standard, that is, ordinary, although some of them could not do it.
……
"Next, Aburame Shino."
Shino stepped forward, picked up the shuriken, and threw it quickly. The shuriken flew straight to the target... the cicada chirping on the big tree next to him.
"Go to hell, bug!"
But the cicada seemed to sense the danger in advance and flew to the other side to hide.
Shino then threw all of his remaining shurikens at Chan, but Chan dodged them all.
Seeing this, Iruka pointed at the target and shouted:
"Shino! What are you doing!? The target is over there!"
Shino said silently:
"But teacher, that bug is the target in my mind."
"..."
"The next Akimichi Chouji."
Shikamaru also picked up the shuriken and threw it according to the family's unique technique.
ding ding ding...
Eight shurikens hit the bull's eye, and two shurikens missed the bull's eye. Choji shook his head, very dissatisfied.
"It seems that I need to further perfect my throwing skills."
Afterwards, the little cockroaches threw their shurikens one by one. Among them, Sakura and Naruko also used very standard movements to throw the shurikens into the bull's eye.
Iruka nodded.
"Well, the movements are very standard, very good. Next, Uchiha Satsuki."
Satsuki walked forward with his hands in his trouser pockets, took the shuriken from the side, looked at the target, and then, without blinking, fired all ten shurikens with both hands.
ding ding ding...
Some of the shurikens were hit by other shurikens in the air and changed their trajectories, but they all hit the bull's eye.
"Wow!"
"Amazing."
"Yeah yeah."
Seeing this operation, the classmates were all surprised. Even Iruka was shocked for a moment, but he reacted quickly.
"Very good, full marks to Satsuki-san. Next, Hyuga Hinata."
Hinata walked forward with her hands in her jacket pockets and grabbed the shuriken from the box. She looked at the target and swung it with her left hand and then her right hand.
The shurikens were thrown in a straight line and all hit the bull's eye directly.
"Wow" xn
The students exclaimed again.
"Very good, Hinata-san, full marks. Next, Shiranui Neiya."
Ning Ye stepped forward and grabbed the shuriken. He waved his right hand and fired three salvos. The three shuriken gradually spread out in the air and hit three bull's eyes respectively. Then another three salvos were fired...
In the end, Ning Ye's shurikens hit the bull's eye one by one.
Iruka nodded.
"Very good, classmate Ning Ye got full marks."】
[Another week passed, afternoon.
Iruka brought everyone here again.
"Today we are going to conduct a battle drill. Our class will form groups of two to fight each other. However, before the battle, we must make the seal of opposition, and after the battle, we must make the seal of reconciliation. Everyone, remember this clearly."
"Okay, let's draw lots randomly next."
……
"The next group, Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino."
Sakura and Ino first formed the opposing seal, and then they both attacked at the same time.
But it's more of a guide than a battle.
"Ino, don't hold back just because we are friends. Don't close your eyes at the critical moment. Keep your eyes on me."
Sakura said as she dealt with Ino.
"Yes, I understand."
Although she said that, the shy Ino still couldn't let go. She kept dodging Sakura's attacks and refused to fight back.
"Ino, you can't go on like this. If you want to be a ninja, you must have the awareness of a ninja. Try to open your eyes and watch my every move carefully. Don't keep hiding. Hiding won't solve any problems."
"Yes, I will try my best..."
In the end, Sakura deliberately let up a bit, and Ino gradually and successfully fought back, although she still dodged most of the time, it was much better than at the beginning.
In the end, Sakura tapped Ino's forehead to indicate the winner, and the two made a seal of reconciliation. 】
