Chapter 167: The Unrelenting Teacher (1)

Chapter 167: The Unrelenting Teacher (1)

Dripping with sweat as completing 2 D-Rank missions, one of which was chasing after that accursed Tora, was JUST that hard when it comes catching with ankle weights but eventually... Team 6 accomplished the mission. The sun is already about to set as Kai looks at the trio, "Alright, we completed two D-ranked missions. Well done."

Wheezing a bit, Konan musters weakly, "How... are we going to participate in Tsunade-sama's competition tomorrow?"

Kai shrugs, "How would I know? Your focus and responsibility are your missions and training. Anything else, if you desire to succeed, comes from your own skill. If you cannot handle opponents after completing a mission, you're as good as dead."

They flinch for a moment now that the concept of death was no longer foreign to them and Kurenai pushes up with her sass, "Not without ankle weights on, we won't..."

Kai glances at the trio and smirks, "Right, if that's what you think. Anyway, as I said, well done. You're still getting used to these weights so we won't be having morning training for the week but I still want you to be able to walk on water and walls with these on. We'll do that tomorrow."

"But tomorrow is" Konan frowns but gets interjected as Kai continues, "And we will complete two missions once more before the bet Sensei set with Jiraiya."

"We'll lose that way!" Kurenai instantly barks but Kai laughs and waves while leaving, "Then be better~!"

"Where are you going?" Konan groans.

"You three are not the only ones who 'love' to train. Be on time tomorrow," Kai's figure flickers away and Shizune collapses down on her butt in the middle of the road while exhaling a long and tired groan, "My thighs hurt so much..."

"Sensei's an ass," Kurenai pouts and helps Shizune up while Konan silently takes charge of Shizune's right side.

As they begin to lead their battered bodies to Shizune's residence since she could barely walk on her own, Konan clicks her tongue, "We're losing tomorrow, right?"

"No, we aren't!" Konan instantly raises her words sharply and then feels defeated, "But... yeah, we are..."

"I don't want to lose against other teams..." Kurenai adds after a moment of silence, "Sensei is supposed to be the best. I heard he has defeated every one of the other Jonin and Chunin Sensei our classmates are working under..."

This brings about an even gloomier mood and Konan suddenly speaks up, "I think... I have a solution."

"Jiraiya-san! Teach me Sage Mode!" Kai grins while throwing a Senbon needle while forming a seal that clones the needles into tens of needles that threaten to stab Jiraiya in the face. Jiraiya chuckles and the strands of his hair shoot out and accurately parry down each of these needles.

Instead of continuing to attack, Kai appears directly beside the senbon needle as others poof away into plumes of smoke, and he stashes away the needle.

"Oh! You're getting better with Hiraishin!" Jiraiya smiles as Minato takes out a simple kunai with its grip marked with a peculiar seal, "I still don't have that much practice to mark tiny areas like a needle. That's amazing Kai-san."

"Thanks," Kai shrugs and sits down on the empty stool in the training ground before scowling, "Come on, why can't you just teach me?"

Jiraiya sighs at that and shakes his head, "I can't. I mean, even if I had complete control of this strength, I wouldn't be able to. It's not just your age at this point or any other 'excuse' I can come up with. The one who is supposed to give my teachers a green light to teach you... well, is still sleeping."

Kai rolls his eyes, "And what's with that bet? It's disrupting my time to teach my team, you know?"

"I agree with Kai-san on this," Minato frowns for a moment, "Making our teams spar unnecessarily so suddenly may have an adverse effect." With that, the blonde lover of grind glances at Kai as the latter shrugs, "Don't look at me like that. My team isn't winning whatever they may do. They aren't me, you know. I think Mikoto's team will win or Nawaki's team."

"Oh? What's that? I thought you'd be a good teacher," Jiraiya smirks and Kai smiles in return, "That's why they won't win tomorrow. Nothing teaches better than defeat, right? If they win constantly, they'll turn out assholes like me."

"Kai-san, you're not a bad person," Minato smirks sheepishly.

"Nah, the punk's got a point," Jiraiya laughs and then has his large palms ruffling both Minato's and Kai's heads while adding, "I don't really have much hope to win either. It's not like Tsunade's bad luck was supposed to stick on forever. I heard about Kakashi and he's quite good."

"Quite good he says," Kai snickers, "You at Kakashi's age were deep down in peeping on chicks." Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

"And that made me a better man," Jiraiya shrugs but Kai suddenly recalls something, 'Kakashi... wait a minute... No way. Sensei's luck truly is fucking stupidly bad when it comes to gambling...'

"Sensei," Minato looks at Jiraiya, "I think I managed to barely converge the secondary properties of fire into Rasengan."

Kai and Jiraiya look at the youth. Honestly, Kai had suspended his quest for elemental rasengun and the elemental version of Revolving Heaven because of his other priorities and admitted lack of creativity when it came to the latter jutsu but that did not mean he stopped. Instead, he chose to assist Minato with his own quest for the elemental version of Rasengan.

"Flame Gun."

"Hot Ball."

Kai and Minato look at Jiraiya this time as he nods, "Alright, not Hot Ball. But Sun Gun... how Taiyogan?"

{A/N: Taiyo in one form means ocean and another literary form means Sun in the Japanese language source: google.}

"Taiyogan..." Minato looks at the orb of a hot mess in his hand and smiles fondly before pressing it into the ground.

*Sssssssss*

A tremendous geyser of hot steam instantly rushed toward Minato and his eyes widen. Not only he disappears in an instant as the orb of flame balloons up beyond control, but Jiraiya also forms a seal and uses body flicker alongside Kai.

*Tc*

A barely audible clicking noise echoed from the Jutsu as the gigantic, hill-sized sphere of 'sun' implodes alongside a mushroom of steam as wide as fifty meters and as tall as seventy meters!

There is no sound of an explosion as the trio stand on one of the surviving trees at the edge of the training ground.

While Jiraiya and Minato are shocked stupidly so, Kai compares notes.

'Shurikengun is deadly to an individual as it ruins the chakra coils beyond belief, too. Railgun is quick beyond belief when it comes to a straight trajectory with piercing strength that can puncture orbs of energy as Bijudama. Frost Gun is similar to Taiyogan. Both have a wide range and are entirely dependent on their second nature of cooling and heating... After all, Taiyogun, even when expanding to the limits, did not have a flicker of fire. It's pure heat...'

"It's like the charged version of scorch release." Jiraiya whispers and evaluates further, "But Scorch release can be controlled to dehydrate others and not affect the user. THIS... cannot. Ah, a mix of scorch release that also has the effect of steam release."

Kai nods internally.

These elemental variations of Rasengan, to some extent, do touch upon the elemental Kekkei Genkais, further proving that it's just an instinctive control of chakra over a ratio of elements.

"Do... I have to pay for the damages?" Minato is stunned speechless even now.

"Why don't you ask them?" Kai snickers as multiple Anbu members surround them at this point and the leading member with a monkey's mask states calmly, "Please follow us to Hokage-sama's office."

"Sure," Jiraiya shrugs, "I bet Sensei's already missing the stuff I have collected in these two days."

And by stuff... Jiraiya meant his premium collection, causing Kai to laugh further as Minato blushes and lowers his head.
