"Oh, right."
Shinji thought of sothing, took out a scroll, and handed it to Sasuke, saying, "Inside is a kusanagi sword that suits you well."
"Suits ?" Sasuke took it, looking puzzled.
"If you can perfectly control this sword, then your Lightning Release will also make good progress."
This wasn't Shinji exaggerating. It was because the kusanagi sword itself indeed had a certain affinity for Lightning Release.
And while this sword was strong, for him, it was rely better than nothing. If he had obtained this sword two years ago, he would have absolutely loved it. Perhaps he could even have made a na for himself as a Lightning Release user with it, but now he no longer needed it.
Sasuke, on the other hand, possessed excellent Lightning Release talent, even surpassing the Fire Release he was initially so focused on.
Currently, Sasuke's Fire Release wasn't as strong or as deeply developed as his Lightning Release. Sasuke, who once aid to follow in his older brother's footsteps, now had his own direction.
Moreover, Shinji was increasingly able to clearly sense that Sasuke's Yin Chakra was growing stronger. It was likely due to the Sharingan.
Shinji withdrew his gaze. He needed to find ti to see if Minato had any solutions.
Thinking of Minato, Shinji turned to look at Naruto.
This kid seed to have been constantly practicing dodging kunai recently. It wasn't like training to overco his reaction speed shortcomings.
It looked more like he was practicing body instinct?
"Naruto, how's the training going?" Shinji squatted beside him, and after watching for a long ti, he finally asked Naruto.
"Sensei!" Hearing Shinji call out, Naruto ran over, looking delighted.
"Hehe, dad told to practice dodging when I have nothing to do, preferably to form a conditioned reflex." Naruto scratched the back of his head, saying a bit awkwardly.
After all, this training, whether watching or listening, sounded a bit silly.
Shinji nodded, confirming it was exactly as he had thought.
"Let help you." Shinji stood up and said to Naruto.
It had always been his Shadow Clone throwing kunai. For Naruto, this might have been okay at first, but once he got used to it, it would be useless. After all, once the clone was dispelled, Naruto would receive those mories. Now, Naruto's current Shadow Clone already had blindfolds on. Minato probably realized this drawback too.
"Really?!" Naruto instantly beca happy upon hearing this.
Shinji had been very busy recently, which he could tell, so he had been relying on his own training.
As for his other friends, besides Sasuke and Choji, no one else could split off so much Chakra for this.
The fact that Shinji could personally accompany him today made him overjoyed.
"Really, but you'll have to be careful." Shinji smiled and ruffled Naruto's head.
"No problem! I'm not afraid of training." Naruto patted his chest, full of confidence.
Shinji raised an eyebrow, he hoped this kid would still be so confident later.
Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Shinji raised a single hand, splitting off more than thirty Shadow Clones that scattered in all directions.
"Uh, isn't this a bit much?"
Naruto stared dumbfounded at Shinji's Shadow Clones, which were even more nurous than the ones he himself could create. He suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Naruto, be careful." Shinji's lips curved into a smile, reminding him kindly.
"Okay—"
"Oh my god!"
The mont a dozen kunai attacked, Naruto's face contorted in a comical expression of fear.
He frantically dodged. The speed and angles were even more tricky than his blindfolded Shadow Clones.
"Ow!"
"Sensei! Stop for a mont!"
In the field, Naruto was like a monkey. He had just dodged, and the next second, another kunai ca flying at him.
Swish—
A line of blood appeared. Naruto looked at the mark on the back of his hand, which was already healing rapidly.
"Naruto? Should I slow down a bit?" Shinji stopped and asked.
"No! Sensei! Please continue!" Naruto looked up, his expression no longer jovial.
Shinji's speed was actually similar to his Shadow Clone's previous speed, but the angles were more cunning. If he couldn't even endure this, it wouldn't be called training.
"Alright, then continue." Shinji nodded, instructing the Shadow Clones to proceed.
As for switching to wooden or unsharpened kunai, there was no need because that wouldn't have any effect at all. On the contrary, it would make Naruto's instinctive reactions interpret these as harmless. Even if he was hit, it would at most hurt for a mont. That was by no ans a good thing for Naruto.
"Bring it on!" Naruto had a serious expression, observing his surroundings.
As Naruto's words fell, several kunai shot out, almost simultaneously arriving in front of Naruto.
This ti, Naruto dodged with a ground-stomp and roll.
His recent training wasn't without effect, his movents were perfectly evasive.
He can do it.
Shinji nodded to himself. It seed the training Minato had set up was designed to fully target Naruto's characteristics.
A very foolish teaching plan that bypassed the complex theories Naruto wasn't good at. It made Naruto genuinely rely on his body's instincts to act. It was clumsy, but surprisingly practical.
Shinji also roughly understood Minato's idea. He wanted Naruto to learn Flying Thunder God.
This should be the first stage, not to teach Naruto the jutsu, but to ensure his dynamic vision, brain processing, and body's instinctive reactions could keep up with the rhythm of the later Flying Thunder God.
In the Sealed Space, Minato smiled. He could clearly sense Naruto's unease.
As expected of Shinji, he instantly understood his thoughts.
The thrown kunai were aid precisely at the blind spots Naruto had previously ignored.
"Tch, Minato, you're a ruthless one." Kurama sneered.
This kind of training couldn't be done without being ruthless.
"I look forward to Naruto's future."
Minato ignored Kurama's comnt. He knew Naruto wouldn't bla anyone. After all, this was sothing that had to be done for him to beco stronger.
Rather than letting Naruto beco drowsy and confused by listening to lectures, it was better to let him master it through this 'learning by doing' thod.
"I need to find ti to let Shinji co in, my ti is running out." Minato said, glancing at his increasingly transparent body.
Because he knew his ti was short, he had Naruto begin this training. No matter what, he had to make Naruto learn Flying Thunder God. This was also the last thing he, as a father, could do for Naruto.
Kurama looked down at Minato, it knew Minato wasn't lying. The spiritual imprint was becoming increasingly faint, almost negligible.

"Hiss, it looks so painful."
In the Training Ground, Karin shivered, seeing this kind of training for the first ti.
Sasuke also understood deeply. It was similar to when he used Lightning Release to stimulate his body to adapt.
Actually, if Naruto had the Sharingan, this kind of training wouldn't be necessary at all. His insight alone would be enough for Naruto to perform. However, not everyone has the Sharingan.
"Shikamaru, let's continue." Choji only watched for a mont before saying to Shikamaru.
Naruto was already doing so much, how could his friends fall behind?
