Chapter 4 - Ch-4 the rising power

Under the moonlight, Naruto and Hana continued their taijutsu training, their movements growing sharper with every exchange. Though the night was serene, the intensity of their sparring sent ripples of energy through the air. Kushina, observing from a distance, was torn between pride and worry as she witnessed her children's progress.

Naruto had an idea. Turning to the system, he asked, "System, if I spar with Hana and then defeat three dummies, will it count towards the mission?"

The system's familiar voice echoed in his mind:

"Yes, host. A spar with your sister will count. Completing it will grant you an additional reward."

Smiling mischievously, Naruto turned to Hana. "Hey, Hana, want to spar? Let's see how far we've come!"

Hana grinned, ready for the challenge. "Sure, onii-chan! But let's make it interesting. If I win, you have to cook breakfast tomorrow. If you win, I'll give you a shoulder massage!"

Naruto laughed. "Deal! But don't go easy on me, little sister."

The siblings bowed respectfully before assuming their stances. With a sharp intake of breath, they launched into action.

The Battle Begins

Naruto started with a feint, quickly closing the distance between them. Hana, anticipating his move, blocked his punch and countered with a low kick aimed at his shin. Naruto leaped back, evading her strike, but Hana followed through with a spinning kick that grazed his cheek.

"Not bad!" Naruto exclaimed, grinning.

"Don't underestimate me, onii-chan!" Hana replied, her voice filled with determination.

Their sparring continued, each pushing the other to their limits. Hana's agility and precision were impressive, but Naruto's raw strength gave him an edge. Seizing an opening, Naruto delivered a powerful punch to Hana's abdomen, sending her sliding back.

Though winded, Hana refused to back down. With a fierce battle cry, she charged forward, aiming a series of quick strikes at Naruto's torso. He parried most of her attacks but underestimated her final move—a well-placed kick that sent him stumbling.

From the shadows, the mysterious girl with the Sharingan observed their fight with growing curiosity. "Such raw talent at their age," she murmured, her crimson eyes glowing faintly.

Mission Complete

As the spar came to an end, Hana collapsed onto the ground, exhausted but smiling. Naruto offered her a hand, helping her to her feet.

At that moment, the system chimed in his mind:

"Mission Complete! Rewards unlocked:

+350 XP

+300 Chakra Pool

+12 Taijutsu Proficiency

Intermediate Taijutsu Technique Mastery

New Move Unlocked: Focused Stance (Improved Defense)

+10% Chakra Control Boost

Naruto felt a surge of power coursing through his body. The chakra within him expanded, and his control improved significantly.

"Level Up! Host Status Updated:

+500 Chakra Pool

+10% Chakra Control Boost

+12 Taijutsu Proficiency."

Kurama, observing from within Naruto, growled softly. "This brat's progress is unnatural. What's driving him? I'll need to watch him closely."

The Morning After

As the sun rose, the Uzumaki household came alive. Over breakfast, Kushina discussed the next phase of their training.

"Today, we'll focus on advanced taijutsu and sealing techniques," she announced, her tone firm yet encouraging. "You've both made great progress, but there's still much to learn."

Naruto and Hana nodded eagerly, their excitement palpable. The day's training would push them even further, but they were ready to embrace the challenge.

From a distance, the girl with the Sharingan watched them leave the house. Her lips curled into a smirk. "This is only the beginning. Let's see how far they'll go."
