Yuta couldn't open the Third Gate that day.
It wasn't until the sun went down that Guy became relieved.
With the momentum before, he thought Yuta could completely master the Eight Inner Gates in just one day.
But Yuta was still too young.
The first two gates of the Eight Inner Gates just allow people to fully make use of their physical potential.
The side effects are just fatigue after a while.
After reaching the Third Gate, there is a possibility of causing damage to the body.
"Sure enough, the Eight Inner Gates is not easy to master." Yuta sighed with exhaustion.
"Of course!"
Guy said as a matter of course, "I have practiced so many more years than you, and now I can only open the Sixth Gate at most."
"But with your talent, Yuta, you should be able to open the Third Gate in a month at most."
Having said that, Guy's expression became serious and he warned, "Remember, when using the Eight Inner Gates, you should always pay attention to your physical condition and do not forcefully open the gate."
With Yuta's talent, he would likely go further than him in terms of mastery of the Eight Inner Gates.
It would be a pity if he died prematurely because of forcefully opening a gate.
But!
Seven days later, Guy became speechless again when he saw Yuta open the Third Gate.
Yuta was not surprised, and instead he frowned secretly.
After opening the third gate, he could see the high-speed flow of blood under his skin, and his whole body was becoming congested and turning red.
After only one minute, Yuta closed the Third Gate and felt an extremely strong sense of exhaustion.
This should be the limit that he can achieve at his age.
If he wants to continue to open the fourth gate and more, he will need to wait for the development of his body.
Next, Yuta continued doing daily high-intensity workouts with Guy, and he occasionally practiced some taijutsu techniques.
His strength was growing day by day.
Occasionally, he would take a C-rank task of going out to clear up some bandits, and they were all completed without any trouble.
Sometimes he even got emotional.
Bandits in the Land of Fire are like leeks, they quickly emerge again after being destroyed once.
Yuta, who took a human life for the first time didn't feel any major turmoil in his heart.
He had long been aware of the cruelty of the ninja world.
The crisis of the Uchiha genocide was still hanging over his head.
However, after committing the murder, his pupil power increased by a little.
It had reached the limit of a one tomoe sharingan. His sharingan was not far from being promoted to the two tomoe level.
On the training ground of the Uchiha clan.
"Fire release: Fire Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A huge fire dragon spewed out of Yuta's mouth, knocking down the target easily, and burning the ground black.
Yuta's expression didn't fluctuate at all.
Sure enough, even the B-rank Fire Dragon Bullet Technique could be easily used after just reading the scroll once, and memorizing the direction of Chakra flow.
And it could also be cast without a hand seal.
It can only be said that it is indeed worthy of Indra's talent.
"Before my strength reaches the level of a Jōnin, this level of ninjutsu is probably enough, but genjutsu..."
Yuta frowned slightly.
Ninjutsu can be trained alone.
But for genjutsu, a living target is needed.
A certain long black haired figure appeared in his mind.
Yuta suppressed his slightly tingling conscience and walked towards Izumi's house.
...
"Did you do something to hurt me recently?"
Izumi stared at Yuta vigilantly.
In front of her, there was a row of rice balls, pancakes, bean soup, and so on.
All her favorite food were here.
"What are you talking about?"
Yuta said with some guilty conscience, "I just want to ask you for help in training genjutsu."
"Really?"
"Naturally!"
Izumi picked up a rice ball and took a small bite, feeling the sweet and savory taste in het mouth.
With a little sadness, she said, "I feel like I'm just a tool for your training, Yuta."
Yuta felt more guilty when he heard this, but he still denied it.
He took out a few scrolls in his hand. These were the genjutsu scrolls that Fugaku had given him before.
Sly Mind Affect technique, False Surroundings Technique here, Hell Viewing Technique...
Some techniques would cause great pain to the target, so he would not try it on Izumi.
"False Surroundings Technique."
Yuta activated the genjutsu according to the Chakra flow on the scroll, and he still didn't need any hand seals.
Yuta looked at Izumi with some curiosity, wondering if the genjutsu was successful.
"What?"
A little doubt appeared on Izumi's face. She rubbed her eyes, and looked at a tree in the courtyard.
"Yuta, why did you suddenly go there?"
Seeing this, Yuta naturally understood that his genjutsu was successfully activated.
The effect of the False Surroundings Technique was to change the view in the eyes of the target.
For example, in Izumi's field of vision now, the tree in the yard was him.
"The effect is not bad."
Yuta nodded with satisfaction.
Although he did not intend to use genjutsu as his main means of combat, the genjutsu talent ontained from the Indra bloodline was very good and he didn't plan to waste it.
Next, he tried the sly mind affect technique, which made Izumi mistakenly think that she had entered a maze and she wandered around the yard for a while.
The last one, Hell Viewing Technique.
Seeing the description of this genjutsu, Yuta hesitated.
The effect of this genjutsu is to let the target see the most feared scene in their heart.
Wouldn't it be bad for this to be used on Izumi?
Suddenly thinking of some possibility, Yuta secretly said sorry in his heart, but still decided to give it a try.
"The next genjutsu may make you see some bad things."
"Remember, everything you see later will be fake!"
Yuta reminded seriously.
He wanted to try and see if he could help Izumi awaken her sharingan through a genjutsu.
If Izumi awaken her sharingan, and then trains more seriously, she would be able to somewhat protect herself in this dangerous world.
At least, he didn't want her to easily get killed by Obito like in the original.
However, Izumi's well being is much more important than these.
He can't let anything go wrong with Izumi just for the sake of testing his genjutsu.
Izumi nodded earnestly, and when she saw Yuta on the opposite side activate a genjutsu, the scene in front of her suddenly changed.
A full moon hung high, and an ominous atmosphere permeated the village.
The huge body of Nine Tails easily smashed all the buildings it touched, and boulders splashed around.
The flying stones knocked down both her and Yuta's home.
Blood flowed out from under the wall.
She was the only one left, facing the collapsed home.
"Dad, Mom!"
"Yuta!"
Completely forgetting that this was a genjutsu, Izumi's mind went blank as she rushed towards the ruins in front of her.
Her body suddenly stopped.
Pointing her finger on her forehead, she injected Chakra, and the scene in front of her changed again.
A cold Chakra poured into her eyes.
Opening her eyes, she saw Yuta alive, surrounded by his own home, and the surrounding atmosphere was peaceful and natural.
She couldn't help but put her hand towards Yuta and she rubbed the other's face.
"Yuta, you're still alive, it's great..."
"Well, I'm here, and Uncle and Aunt are also all right. What you saw before was fake."
"Great..."
Seeing Izumi falling asleep directly, Yuta's mood was very complicated.
He wondered if this was really good for Izumi.
Looking at the little girl sleeping in his arms, Yuta sighed in his heart.
This ninja world is really not gentle.
