"Mr. Shan, I've kept you waiting."
When Kirito saw this white-eyed man, he immediately walked up quickly and saluted, smiling.
Hyuga Shan, the Jonin of the Hyuga branch, this was Kirito's physical arts sensei.
For the past two years, Kirito had been training in physical arts under the other party's teachings, and the physical art he was learning was, of course, Gentle Fist.
The credit for Hyuga Shan being able to come and be Kirito's physical arts teacher was of course due to the Senju clan making a deal with the Hyuga clan.
The reason for this is that after Kawaki's offer of early graduation came up, and Kirito learned that he was given the same resource allocation as Kawaki, he had the cheek to tell Mito that he wanted to learn the best physical arts in Konoha, and then the very next day Hyuga Shan was dispatched by the Hyuga's Partriach to teach Gentle Fist to Kirito.
In exchange, a female member of the Hyuga clan became Kirito's cheap junior sister and came to Mito with Kirito and Nawaki to learn sealing techniques.
"Begin."
Hyuga Shan said coldly.
Saying that, he opened his Byakugan, and struck a Gentle Fist starting stance at Kirito.
When Kirito saw this, he immediately put up an identical Gentle Fist starting stance, and then used his full strength to make a Gentle Fist at Hyuga Shan.
The two of them were engaged in just the most basic Gentle Fist sparring, Kirito was in charge of attacking, and Hyuga Shan was in charge of defending.
The Gentle Fist that the two of them used was simple and unadorned in every move.
Only, the two people's attack and defense speed is frighteningly fast, ordinary chunin simply can't afford to see the two people strike, and the strike is so powerful that every time they clash, they will hit a sonic boom and erupt into a wave of air.
Gradually, both hands are covered with blue chakra, and the two attack and defense has been reversed.
Under that blistering attack of Hyuga Shan, Kirito was struggling to fight, not even a single chance to counterattack.
In the end, a certain chakra point on Kirito's body was accidentally hit by Hyuga Shan, and his movements broke down, and he was immediately slapped by Hyuga Shan, ending this Gentle Fist sparring session.
"Mr. Shan, how many percent of your Gentle Fist strength did you use to spar with me this time?"
Kirito inquired as he stood up from the ground with his teeth showing, rubbing his chest where he had just been hit.
"Fifty percent."
Hyuga Shan replied indifferently as he stepped forward and used his Mystical Palm Technique to heal Kirito's wounds.
"Still fifty percent, looks like my Gentle Fist hasn't improved much lately."
Kirito scratched his head in some frustration.
"Give it up, although your Gentle Fist foundation is very solid, and your strength and speed are also very good, but without Byakugan and the subsequent cultivation methods, you are unable to utilize the true power of Gentle Fist."
Seeing this, instead of encouraging him, Hyuga Shan struck him down.
"If you can't bring it into play, then you can't bring it into play, anyway, I'm not going to rely only on Gentle Fist to fight my enemies in the future, but I'm not going to give up on Gentle Fist, Gentle Fist is an excellent physical art, and it's still useful for me to increase my strength, look Mr. Shan, I've already succeeded in opening up all of the chakra points on my arms."
Kirito shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.
As soon as the words left his mouth, he was on the spot to show Hyuga Shan his latest Gentle Fist cultivation success.
In the next moment, a stream of chakra seeped out from the chakra acupoints on Kirito's right arm, and then under the manipulation of his excellent chakra manipulation power, a chakra armguard materialized from a high degree of chakra condensation appeared on Kirito's arm.
"Ding~"
This chakra arm guard was very rough, not exquisite at all, but Kirito poked hard at it with his kunai, and was unable to break the defense, and made the sound of metal clashing.
Then, he punched it hard on the ground.
"Boom~".
A large pit strewn with cracks instantly appeared on the ground.
"The defense is good, and there is also a good strengthening effect on strength, but unfortunately, the Chakra condensation method I currently mastered is average, and I can't form a stronger Chakra hard block, so it's not as good as the defense and strength strengthening will be further increased."
Kirito looked at Hinata Shan whose face was slightly showing a shocked expression at this moment, and smiled smugly.
Relying on exercising Gentle Fist, opening up the chakra acupuncture points of the entire body, then relying on the outstanding chakra condensation method to materialize the chakra, and finally completing the whole body covered with a chakra armor with amazing defensive strength and outstanding increase in strength and speed.
This is the direction of Kirito's development of the Gentle Fist after learning it. The inspiration comes from Uchiha's Susanoo, and his ultimate goal is naturally to deploy a Susanoo.
Unlike the Uchiha people who uses the Susanoo by relying on the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, which can go blind if used too much, he only needs to open the chakra points throughout the body, have enough chakra, have an excellent chakra condensation method, and have excellent chakra control to deploy the Susanoo.
Hinata Shan was very surprised and ashamed inside when he heard Kirito say that.
Surprised that Kirito's control of chakra and development of Gentle Fist had reached such a point, and ashamed that Kirito had just so graciously revealed the new moves he had developed for Gentle Fist, whereas he had not been able to tell Kirito about the various methods of training that followed for Gentle Fist.
Of course, it wasn't that he wasn't willing to tell Kirito about Gentle Fist's subsequent advanced knowledge, but rather that he didn't have the qualifications to do so.
Like the Eight Trigrams 32 Palms, 64 Palms, One Body Strike, Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, and other Gentle Fist subsequent cultivation methods, only the main clan family's people have the qualification to teach to Kirito, he is a branch of the family is not possible to directly pass on to Kirito, even if some of the strokes have already been figured out by himself.
Two years together, Hyuga Shan was very satisfied with his cheap disciple's talent, even if he did not have Byakugan, but also had a pair of good eyesight, and was too smart, and learning ability is superb.
Teaching him the basic combinations of Gentle Fist once, he learned it once, closed his eyes and recalled it, and the second time, he was in good form.
Two years passed, under his watchful eye, Kirito laid the foundation of Gentle Fist firmly and incomparably strong, until now, it has reached the point where it is difficult to continue to refine, and had to develop new Gentle Fist moves on his own.
In terms of the foundation of Gentle Fist, he, Hyuga Shan, believed that none of the juniors of the Hyuga clan were as good as Kirito, not even the heir to the clan that he was also teaching.
An outsider would learn Gentle Fist better than the heir of the Hyuga clan's main family, and after only two years of learning it, he had surpassed it, and now he had independently developed a new application of Gentle Fist, this talent could no longer be described as a genius, but more appropriately as a demon.
"If he is a member of the clan family, the Hyuga clan will surely rise in Konoha, right?"
Hyuga Shan lamented in his heart.
But soon, he discarded this foolish thought.
Because if Kirito was a member of the main clan family, there was no way he could have pioneered a new stance of Gentle Fist like this, having been imprisoned by that stubborn and old-fashioned thinking of the clan family early on.
"Don't bring out this kind of crude stuff in the future, Gentle Fist is not used like this, today's training ends here."
Hyuga Shan continued indifferently.
He was a member of a separate family and could not control his own destiny, so for Kirito's kindness, this was the only way he could avoid and protect him.
It would be best for Kirito not to get too close to him, a man of the split family, as this would be misunderstood by the people of the clan.
"Yes, yes, I understand, Mr. Shan. Here, this is for you. This is not for you, it's for Hanare. Please give it to her when you go back. She showed me the class notes of the classes I missed today. This is a thank you gift. There are some delicious food in it. You can have some. By the way, let me tell you, Hanare's performance in the practical class today was amazing. She knocked down that guy Kawaki without using Gentle Fist.
Kirito saw Hyuga Shan about to leave, he immediately called out to the other party, then handed him a Storage Scroll and explained with a smile.
Hyuga Hanare was none other than Hyuga Shan's youngest daughter.
Hearing Kirito talk about Hanare, the cold heart in his heart suddenly trembled, he looked deeply at Kirito and silently accepted the Storage Scroll, then immediately used his Body Flicker Technique to leave.
Kirito dispersed his sensory abilities and confirmed that Hyuga Shan had left, then he fiercely struck a palm through the air at a wooden stake in front of him.
In the next moment, a high-density chakra block was instantly released from his palm before generating a powerful shockwave, and the wooden stake more than ten meters away was instantly sent flying out and split in pieces.
