Chapter 179 : guide
Time returned to several months ago.
Uchiha Yuzuru was at home watching the three brothers, Uchiha Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Uchiha Gaara, wage a great battle against Uchiha Itachi using wooden Kunai.
Although the three were clumsy, their formation was surprisingly professional.
Every time a Kunai touched Uchiha Itachi's body, the children would burst into laughter.
Uchiha Itachi never found it boring, and he would play with them until they were completely exhausted every time.
The more Uchiha Yuzuru watched, the more satisfied he became.
With Itachi, the doting older brother, accompanying the three energetic little ones, he and Kushina, Mikoto, and Karura had more time to themselves.
Just then, a clear female voice came from outside the door: "Lord Yuzuru, are you home?"
"Itachi, keep a close eye on them. I'm going out for a moment."
Uchiha Itachi immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Father."
Uchiha Yuzuru turned and walked outside, finding Yugito, Samui, and Mabui standing at the door.
Compared to three years ago, the fifteen-year-olds had changed significantly.
Each of them was blossoming, like flowers in full bloom.
Especially Samui.
Her stunningly pale skin, coupled with a magnificent figure that rivaled Tsunade's, made even Uchiha Yuzuru involuntarily activate his 'auto-aim.'
"What is it that the three of you need from me?"
Samui and Mabui both fixed their gaze on Yugito, who mustered her courage and said, "Lord Yuzuru, I can now use Matatabi's power very well. Could I please ask you for some guidance?"
Seeing the expectant looks of the three, Uchiha Yuzuru did not refuse.
"Alright then, let's go to Cloud-Thunder Valley."
"Yes!"
The group quickly arrived at Cloud-Thunder Valley.
Years had passed, but nothing here had changed.
It was still a lake surrounded by mountains, with nothing alive except for the continuous sound of thunder.
"First, let me see your strength."
Uchiha Yuzuru asked Samui and Mabui to stand back a bit, then waved at Yugito.
Yugito took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Lord Yuzuru, you should be careful."
Seeing Yugito's earnest expression, Uchiha Yuzuru couldn't help but chuckle: "Attack with the belief that you must kill me. Don't hold back."
"Understood."
After Yugito finished speaking, she placed her hand on the Sealing Jutsu formula on her stomach.
The next second, terrifying Chakra spilled out, and Yugito immediately underwent complete Tailed Beast Transformation.
The blue cat monster, engulfed in flames, swung its massive claws toward Uchiha Yuzuru.
Uchiha Yuzuru crossed his arms, activated his Susanoo, and began fighting Yugito.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
... With Uchiha Yuzuru deliberately holding back, Matatabi and Susanoo fought back and forth.
After fighting for a full half hour, Matatabi voluntarily pulled away.
The next second, it raised its head and gathered a massive amount of Chakra at its mouth.
"Roar!"
Following an angry roar, the Tailed Beast Ball instantly rushed toward the Susanoo.
Seeing this sight, Samui and Mabui were both greatly alarmed.
Isn't this taking things too far?
What shocked them even more was that the Susanoo directly sliced the Tailed Beast Ball in half with a single strike.
Boom!
The Tailed Beast Ball exploded in the distance, and the resulting shockwave directly knocked Samui and Mabui off their feet.
After everything calmed down, Yugito's figure reappeared before everyone.
As soon as she appeared, Yugito swayed slightly: "Lord Yuzuru, I have reached my limit."
Even though Matatabi cooperated perfectly with her, constantly using such immense power placed a heavy burden on Yugito's mind.
If she continued fighting, she would likely lose her sanity again.
Of course, she could hand over control to Matatabi when she could no longer bear it.
But since this was only a spar, there was absolutely no need for that.
"That was very good. You are already an excellent Perfect Jinchuriki."
"When Killer Bee was your age, he was far behind you."
Uchiha Yuzuru praised her, deactivated his Susanoo, and walked up to Yugito.
With Yugito and Matatabi's current cooperation, she was already capable of handling most battles.
Yugito scratched her head sheepishly: "Actually, I'm not as amazing as you say. It's just that Matatabi always cooperates fully with me."
Right after she finished speaking, she froze in confusion.
In her mental world, Matatabi directly tapped Yugito on the head.
Yugito instantly snapped awake, a trickle of cold sweat running down her forehead.
A Genjutsu?
When did... "It took nearly five seconds to fall under the Genjutsu and break free. That time is still a bit long. You can strengthen special training in this area with Matatabi later."
"Try to be able to dispel the Genjutsu the moment you fall under it."
A Perfect Jinchuriki is not immune to Genjutsu; it's just that when a Jinchuriki falls under a Genjutsu, the Tailed Beast inside them can help them break free.
The sooner the Tailed Beast and the Jinchuriki notice, the less time it takes to break free from the Genjutsu.
Yugito took five seconds to regain her senses, and while that is not very long, it is already fatal in a battle.
Hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's instruction, Yugito bowed respectfully: "I will pay attention to that in the future. Thank you for the reminder, Lord Yuzuru."
Seeing that Yugito had gained a lot, Samui also excitedly ran up.
"Lord Yuzuru, could you give me some guidance?"
"I mainly rely on short swords for combat."
Seeing this level of combat for the first time, even Samui, who always demanded calmness from herself, couldn't help but be extremely excited.
Uchiha Yuzuru, however, felt a little thirsty.
Under the Mangekyo Sharingan's powerful dynamic vision, the astonishing bounce Samui displayed as she ran over was fully captured by Uchiha Yuzuru.
He said seriously: "Swordsmanship is one of the powers I am best at. When Cultivating swordsmanship, one often needs to be fully focused."
"When you have time another day, come find me, and I will give you close, one-on-one instruction."
Hearing this, Samui happily jumped up: "That's wonderful! Thank you, Lord Yuzuru."
Feeling a slight stinging sensation in his nose, Uchiha Yuzuru subtly averted his gaze.
Sometimes, having overly good dynamic vision can also cause some trouble.
"Mabui, what about you?"
"I'll pass. I'm not the type who excels at combat."
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded, didn't press the issue, and instead said to Yugito: "Can I speak with Matatabi for a moment?"
Yugito nodded: "No problem."
After speaking, Chakra surged around her, and a miniature Matatabi appeared on Yugito's shoulder.
"Lord Yuzuru, you were looking for me?"
Uchiha Yuzuru nodded, then got straight to the point: "I had some thoughts when I saw you launch the Tailed Beast Ball just now, so I have a few questions I want to ask you."
Matatabi walked with cat-like steps toward Uchiha Yuzuru, arched its back, and rubbed lightly against his leg several times.
"Lord Yuzuru, I will tell you everything I know."
