"Ying, I'm going to start training you today.”The injured Zhi Shui could not stand it anymore. He looked at his younger brother who was circling around Weasel and ignoring him, and roared.
"Come on." Ying raised his small head and said fearlessly. However, at this moment, Weasel secretly tugged at Ying's clothes.
However, Ying Tai wanted to become stronger, so he did not understand Zhi Shui's meaning at all. He even turned his head around and looked at Itachi in a flattering manner." Big Brother Itachi, I'll come and play with you later."”
"Damn brat, you're dead meat." Zhi Shui thought hatefully in his heart.
Next, they saw a five-year-old kid running endlessly in the field. He had run at least 200 laps. He was so tired that his tongue was about to fall out, but he did not stop.
"Zhishui, isn't this a little too much?”Weasel came to Zhi Shui's side and looked at Zhi Shui, who was half a head taller than him, and said in confusion. Zhi Shui was not such a person who did things without restraint.
"It's okay. Have you seen a five-year-old child throw bitter fruit onto a tree and stab it halfway in?”Zhi Shui said with a faint smile. He looked at Ying, who was still running, and revealed a gratified smile.
"What?" Weasel's eyes widened when he heard that. Although this was not difficult for any ninja, even a Genin, it was still a little unexpected for a child.
"How is it? My brother is not worse than you, right?”Zhishui raised his eyebrows and looked at the man who was half a head lower than him. Zhishui knew that Itachi was a rising star in Koba. He graduated from Ninja School at the age of seven. This made the Uchiha family and even the Naruto family very optimistic about Itachi's development.
"My younger brother will become an outstanding ninja in the future. Moreover, if you want to, the title of genius Uchiha should be yours.”Weasel looked at Zhi Shui with a complicated expression.
Others might not understand Zhishui's strength, but Weasel, who had been training with him, knew very well that although people said that he was Uchiha's number one genius, there was another genius in Weasel's heart, and that was Zhishui.
Weasel also knew something that no one else knew. Zhishui had already possessed the Three Hook Jade Shura Eyes when he was twelve years old. However, as his strength increased, he did not use the Shura Eyes at all. Therefore, people thought that Zhishui, who was now fifteen years old, had just opened his eyes or had not even opened his eyes.
"I'm a ninja with no future to speak of. What I can do now is to nurture Shadow and surpass me.”Zhi Shui did not deny it. He looked at Ying, who was desperately squeezing out the last bit of his strength, and smiled lightly. It was as if he had seen his own hope.
"Elder…Zhishui?" When Weasel heard Zhi Shui's pessimistic words, he could not help but feel a little anxious.
"Weasel, there are some things that you shouldn't say out loud. There are also some things that you will understand after you reach a certain level of strength. When that day comes, I will tell you everything.”Zhi Shui looked at Itachi with trust and said," But don't lose your way.”
"Yes." Weasel didn't continue asking and nodded heavily.
While the two of them were talking, Ying also finished the difficult 250 laps. He was stopped by Zhi Shui as soon as he finished.
"Haha, as expected of my little brother.”Zhi Shui rubbed Ying's sweaty hair and said proudly.
" D * mn Zhishui, you…Huff…" Shadow was so tired that he could not breathe properly. He could not even finish his sentence. Weasel, who was beside him, was so scared that he quickly patted Shadow's back to help him breathe.
Shadow wanted to shout out loud. This was a ferret, the ferret god who had charmed countless girls in his previous life. Now, he was actually patting his back?
She insisted that she was a child and wanted the ferret to carry her back no matter what. She did not care about Zhi Shui, who was so angry that her eyes were twitching.
The days passed, and Ying could easily finish 250 laps under Zhishui's training.
"Zhishui, did you do it specifically? Why do you always do 250 laps?”Every time he finished running, Shadow would run over to argue with Zhi Shui loudly.
"This is the most effective number.”Every time, Zhishui would reply with a smile as if nothing had happened. However, Shadow knew that this was definitely Zhishui's revenge on him.
Today was a little different from usual. After training, he did not leave. Zhi Shui let Ying sit on the ground to recover his strength.
Although Shadow did not understand Zhishui's intentions, he still did as he was told.
After a while, Weasel appeared in the arena in his gray clothes. When he saw Shadow and Zhi Shui, he greeted them warmly.
"Alright, we can start the second training today.”Zhi Shui clapped his hands and laughed.
"There's still training?" Shadow looked at the smiling Weasel and Zhishui in confusion, unable to figure out what kind of training they were doing.
"From today onwards, Weasel will accompany you for battle training every day, and the cultivation of Chakra will also be taught by Weasel.”Zhi Shui smiled and patted Shadow's head.
"Why aren't you accompanying me?" Shadow looked at Weasel and then at Zhi Shui, frowning.
"Alright, big brother, I have a mission recently. You should obediently learn from Weasel. Weasel's bitterness is very powerful. You have to study hard.”Seeing Shadow and Zhi Shui wanted him to accompany them, so he finally felt better. After all, his big brother was more important.
"If that's the case, then you have to come back early.”Shadow was stunned for a moment. Calculating the time, it should be about time for Sasuke to be born, but when did Zhishui die? It shouldn't be a few years, right?
There was also the group trove. Other than seeing it once at the beginning, it had never appeared again. Although Ying did not know the true cause of Zhishui's death, it was definitely related to the group trove.
After spending a few years together, Shadow had truly treated Zhishui as his big brother. Although Shadow knew that he might not be Zhishui's biological brother, and was very likely to be a test subject made by Tanzo and Orochimaru using someone's cells, Zhishui's carefree and gentle personality still made Shadow feel like he was family. He had to protect him no matter what.
In the next few days, Shadow made rapid progress under Weasel's torture. At first, he was like a brute who charged forward without any order. Now, he could fight with Weasel for dozens of rounds. Of course, this was under the condition that Weasel went easy on him. Otherwise, Weasel would have blown Shadow into pieces with a ninjutsu.
"Alright, that's all for today.”Weasel wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled bitterly in his heart. This kid was a freak. He was clearly not even four years old, but his strength was so great. Every time the two of them clashed, it felt like they were fighting against their peers.
"But it's still early." Shadow was sweating profusely from exhaustion, but it seemed like he still wanted more.
"Today, I'll teach you the method to refine chakras.”Weasel said with a smile. He then took out a book and threw it to Ying.
Weasel wasn't worried that Shadow would make a mistake in his cultivation. This kid's comprehension was stronger than his. If he really couldn't understand it, it wouldn't be too late for him to explain. After all, he could remember things more deeply if he understood them.
Ying took the book and did not immediately sit cross-legged to cultivate. Instead, he looked at Weasel, wanting to say something but hesitating. Zhishui had not returned home for more than a month. Ying did not know what mission Zhishui was carrying out, but he felt a little uneasy.
"Big Brother Weasel, how is Zhishui? Is he dead?”Ying asked bitterly.
"So that's what you're worried about. Don't worry. Your big brother, Zhishui, is a man that even I admire. How could he die so easily? Moreover, he still has a cute younger brother to teach.”Weasel was stunned for a moment before he smiled. It seemed that this kid had a deep relationship with Zhishui. He had felt a little absent-minded during the battle just now. He did not expect that he was actually worried about Zhishui.
"Alright, then I'll start cultivating." Shadow didn't say anything after hearing this. Strength. What he needed was strength. Only with great strength could he protect himself and the people who were important to him.
