In the early morning, Konoha's twentieth training ground.
Naruto, Boruto, and adult Sasuke came here after having breakfast.
At this time, the three of them stood tall.
" Dad, you're no match for me now! "
" Uncle Sasuke said that when you were young, you were always the dead last. Even if you came back from the future, you probably don't have much strength or chakra! "
Boruto spoke in complete confidence.
After their breakfast this morning, Boruto asked to duel with Naruto.
Naruto naturally didn't refuse his son's request.
So the three of them came to this training ground.
" Yeah! "
" Let's spar a bit. "
Naruto smiled. He also needed to adapt to his younger body.
" Dad! Be careful! "
Boruto opened his mouth, and at the next moment, he started his hand seals.
*Bang bang bang bang!*
With the rising smoke, four identical Borutos appeared on the field.
" Only four again? "
Boruto was still a little disappointed.
However he didn't hesitate in his next action, two of his Shadow Clones directly double-teamed Naruto from left and right.
" Shadow Clones… Not enough. "
Naruto chuckled, raising his right hand faintly, instantly blocking the Boruto coming from the left, then jumped using the caught Shadow Clone to leverage and kick the one coming from the right.
The Shadow Clone immediately disappeared into the smoke.
Naruto kept moving, squatting down, dodging a kick from the remaining Shadow Clone, and going up with his right foot.
*Bump!*
This one also disappeared.
Although he has become smaller, he is not amnesic. The only problem comes from his body and soul coordination which has been somewhat affected by his travel. His combat experience and fighting consciousness won't disappear.
Especially his fighting consciousness. For that matter, he is the most powerful existence in the world.
It can be said that even if he had the strength of an average Chunin he can abuse Jonins and Elite Jonins left and right with no problem.
Of course, Boruto is not bad himself, having already gone through the Chunin exams and faced the Otsutsuki invasion, his combat ability has also undergone rapid changes.
During the attack, his other Shadow Clone was not idle, and wind-attributed chakra started flowing on his hand.
" Wind Style - Gale Palm "
As soon as he spoke, Boruto was ejected suddenly towards Naruto.
In mid-air, Boruto started doing hand seals.
" Lightning Style - Lightning Bolt Arrow "
Lighting-attributed chakra gathered on his hand, and the moment he was close enough to Naruto, he quickly flicked it toward him.
Multiple arrow-shaped white lightning sped toward his opponent.
Naruto turned slightly, avoiding all the arrows.
In his sideways movement, Boruto's foot came straight into him.
" It's good. "
" But your faint is too obvious. "
Naruto smiled.
His right hand pressed on Boruto's leg and at the same time kicked mercilessly.
*Bump!*
Boruto flew out faster than he came, and the Shadow Clones approaching rapidly collided with him.
*Bump!*
With a soft bang, the two Shadow Clones were effectively neutralized.
Boruto in the distance screamed in pain.
" Dad! How are you so strong? "
" We're the same age! "
Boruto's face was bitter, looking frustrated.
He originally thought that since his father had become younger, and he didn't have uncle Kurama, he would have had a chance of winning.
But he didn't expect to go down so fast.
" Boruto, your father... At your age, he could easily create thousands of Shadow Clones. "
Hearing what Boruto said, Naruto wanted to speak, but Sasuke interrupted him.
" What thousands? "
Boruto was startled.
He looked at his father in shock.
" Hahaha, that's not true. Without Kurama, there would only be a few hundred Shadow Clones. Thousands were still a little difficult. "
Naruto grinned.
His words made Boruto even more frustrated.
Now he can only make four of them.
He couldn't imagine that his father could do so many of them.
" Alright, let's continue. "
" As my son, your strength is not enough. "
Looking at Boruto's dejected face, Naruto straightened his expression and spoke seriously.
" Again? "
" No way! "
Boruto quickly responded.
But obviously, Naruot didn't care.
The future crisis is unimaginable.
Boruto is not good enough. He must have sufficient strength to survive.
*Bang Bang Bang!*
" No! "
" Father! "
" Dad! "
" Mom! "
" Ahhh! "
Shrill cries sounded on the training ground.
It lasted for who knows how long.
When the morning sun gradually turned into darkness, the screams stopped. But Boruto was as miserable as it gets.
His face was bruised and purple, and his body was in tatters.
To get accustomed to his own body and train Boruto, although he held back his strength, he showed no mercy.
Boruto was miserable, no doubt about it.
Fortunately, the training session has had an effect.
Naruto felt much better in his body. Although his body and soul are still a little out of harmony.
As for Boruto, his combat experiences have become much better, and some issues have been addressed nicely.
His strength hasn't changed much though. But it is much better overall.
