Chapter 370: Deadly Training and a New Danger!

Fujin and Guy discussed the training plan for quite some time. It wasn't like when Fujin asked Genki or Renjiro to help with training plans. Back then, his knowledge was too low and he merely followed the training plans they created with little input from him. But now, Fujin was quite experienced as well.

In addition, his relationship with Guy was more like a colleague rather than a teacher-student relationship. So both were quite casual. After around half an hour, the plan was finalized. Fujin thanked Guy and took his leave.

As he left the training ground, Fujin sighed involuntarily and thought, 'What a weird exchange.'

He recalled Guy's first words. After asking for Guy's help, Guy immediately created a complete training plan and explained it to Fujin with extreme enthusiasm. His words left Fujin completely speechless. Guy had created a training schedule that started at 5 AM and went on till 11 PM with extremely small breaks sprinkled in between for eating. In addition, some of the training involved embarrassing tasks like walking around Konoha on his hands!

Fujin thought, 'He is even more crazy than I remember. Training in such a manner is very harmful to the body. Not to mention, it is useless for anyone who doesn't want to abandon Ninjutsu and Genjutsu.

More than half the time we spent discussing it was to cut the training time from 18 hours to 4 hours. A good amount of the remaining time was spent on removing the embarrassing exercises. While I don't mind some strangers laughing if I can benefit heavily, those exercises don't provide any significant benefit. I guess he does it to improve his mental fortitude and to keep himself humble or grounded. But that isn't an issue for me.'

Fujin shook his head and thought, 'All the weirdness aside, the interaction went quite similarly to how I imagined it would. His nature is as helpful and straightforward as I remember. But, he definitely isn't as simple or naive as he was in the series.Ñøv€lRapture marked the initial hosting of this chapter on Ñôv€lß¡n.

No, even in the series, though he acted as a fool, I didn't consider him as one. Though he wasn't the sharpest, he was still very mature, stable and decently smart. But, in this treacherous world, he'd be even more smart. Regardless, since he has decided to help me, I don't need to worry much about it.

This method of training will be very effective. Since my body is already very strong, I won't need a long time before I can replicate this. In maybe 3 to 4 months, I should be able to infuse chakra throughout my body.

And, unlike Guy, I can combine the Strong Fist style with the Senju Taijutsu style. As long as I ignore the Eight Inner Gates, my Taijutsu could surpass his level if I devote the majority of my time to it.

Sadly, the gains won't be worth it as what makes Guy stand out is his skill with the Eight Inner Gates. I wonder if he'd be willing to teach me the Eight Inner Gates.'

Fujin analyzed for a bit and concluded, 'Asking for it right away will be foolish. Let me first master the chakra infusion. In that time, I can improve my relationship with Guy considerably with regular spars. It'll be best if he proposes this idea himself. If not, I can ask him when I feel it'll be appropriate.

Other ninjas entering his training ground happened every once in a while. In most cases, it'd be someone who wanted to visit Fujin. In some rare cases, it'd just be someone who was passing through. However, it was the first instance of someone disappearing after being sensed.

The clone squinted his eyes as he noticed something on the ground. He bent down and picked up two dead bugs. He analyzed, 'These should be the source of the chakra. What was an Aburame ninja doing here? And why did he kill his own bugs and run away?'

He spread out his chakra field, covering a circular area with a radius of 3 kilometers! Immediately almost every high-level ninja in this area looked in the direction of Fujin's clone.

Fujin's clone deactivated his chakra field and analyzed, 'I didn't find anyone hiding in nearby training grounds. Whoever it was should have mixed with the civilians and the ninjas. Regardless, why would the Aburame clan send a ninja to do something so fishy?'

He thought for a few seconds before shaking his head. A frown formed on his face as he concluded, 'No, this isn't the style of the Aburame clan. It should be Shimura fucking Danzo. Why the hell is that bastard crawling out of the ground?'

He took another look at the bugs and observed, 'These bugs aren't poisonous ones. Rather, they are the ones used for scouting and spying. He wants to collect my information. Knowing his record, he wants to either eliminate or recruit me. If it's the latter I can handle him. But if it's the former...'

The frown on his face deepened. He thought, 'Though I am confident in being able to go up against Danzo and even his remaining Root ninjas in a fair fight, these bastards will never fight fair. In addition, though Hiruzen is extremely devious, he has a soft spot for Danzo.

Even though taking the Root from him might seem a big punishment, it is very tame considering that he killed a rank S ninja, caused another rank S to go rogue and was the main reason behind the massacre of Konoha's strongest clan.

So even if Danzo makes a move against me, I can't count on Hiruzen to back me up. And, I'll also need to be on guard against that freakish eye. Sigh, as I expected, fame is a pain in the ass. Danzo, I hope you don't make things difficult for me, else I don't care if Hiruzen gets offended.

I should wait till I take the Flying Thunder God though. It shouldn't be an issue as I doubt Danzo would make a move against me in a hurry.'

After completing his analysis, the clone clenched his fists. The dead bugs in his hand were cut into minute particles and cremated. A second later, he dispelled himself.

Fujin was sweating heavily as he exerted his body to the max. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he received the clone's memories. His expression went back to normal and a smile appeared on his face as he thought, 'So you have decided to crawl out? It looks like things might not get boring even after I retire from the Anbu.'
