"Woof woof," came the response from Kiba with his tail wagging left and right.

Kaida and Yomi ate their lunch with Ryota; well, they only had an energy bar for their lunch. After eating, Kaida and Yomi played with Kiba for the remaining time.

The bell rang, and they moved toward the training ground as it was time for their taijutsu class.

It was a really important class for Kaida and Yomi as they did not have a clan like the Hyuga clan that could teach them about taijutsu.

Even though what the academy taught about taijutsu couldn't compete with taijutsu of other clans, it was still better than nothing.

When they reached the training ground, Kenji was already present there. Seeing the last students arrived, he began speaking:

"We are going to learn about taijutsu now. Taijutsu is a basic form of technique and refers to any techniques involving martial arts or the optimization of natural human abilities.

Taijutsu is executed by directly accessing the user's physical and mental energies, relying on the stamina and strength gained through training.

It typically does not require chakra, though chakra may be used to enhance its techniques.

Taijutsu generally requires no hand seals to perform, occasionally making use of certain stances or poses, and is far quicker to use than ninjutsu or genjutsu. Taijutsu is, simply put, hand-to-hand combat.

Although it is used by nearly all shinobi, only a few of them use it as their primary fighting style.

Here you are not going to learn any advanced form of taijutsu, but we will focus on basics and building a foundation as it is very difficult to change or learn a new type of taijutsu after learning one type of taijutsu.

Now everyone, I hope you have understood what I have said."

"Yes, sensei," everyone replied.

"Now get ready. First, you all have to run 2 laps around the training ground for the warm-up."

After listening to Kenji's words, everyone began running. While running, Kaida was thinking, 'Finally, I can start learning taijutsu.

I am not sure I will even be able to reach Rock Lee or Guy's level, but still, taijutsu is important if I want to become strong. And just doing the same exercise daily was getting boring. Now we can start learning something new.'

When they finished running, Kenji started teaching them about the correct posture of punching and kicking.

"In taijutsu, everything comes from your stance. Your power, your mobility, your strikes, and grapples and defenses, all begin with your stance. We will be learning the Four Prerequisites of Proper Foundation:

1. Angles

2. Balance

3. Posture

4. Continuity

The angle, balance, and posture of your body while performing any form of taijutsu are important.

Now watch carefully. I will show you proper postures of some basic moves, so watch carefully and learn."

Kenji began performing some basic punches and kicks. Everyone was focusing on his every move, but the person focusing most was Kaida as everyone else had already learned about this in their clan.

After performing a total of 10 forms of punches and kicks, Kenji stopped, and now it was the turn of the students to follow through.

Only the boy from the Hyuga clan and the twins from the Uchiha clan were able to replicate it completely. Kaida and Yomi were having some problems performing those moves.

Seeing this, a smirk emerged on their faces which irked Kaida to no end, but he couldn't do anything to them, so he focused on his posture.

Kenji corrected their mistakes from time to time, and after 2 hours of continuous practice, Kaida was able to perform those moves to a satisfactory level.

Yomi was still having some problems with some moves, but since time was over for the class, Kenji dismissed the class.

Ryota, along with his cute companion, Kiba, walked alongside Kaida and Yomi, escorting them partway towards their home.

As they journeyed together, sharing stories and laughter, the bonds of their friendship grew stronger. However, they eventually reached a point where they bid each other farewell.

Kaida and Yomi went toward their homes. Since they had nothing important to do, they decided to simply practice till night and go for dinner, since eating an energy bar, though it provided all the nutrients for the body, did not provide the satisfaction of having a full belly.

Kaida entered his house and began training his chakra control. Even though he was still just a child, his chakra control could be compared to elite chunins at least due to constant practice and his unique bloodline.

He could now easily pass chakra from any part of his body as well as maintain the flow and amount of chakra he wanted to pass.

After one round of practice, it was already night, so Yomi and Kaida went to a local restaurant for dinner.

Even though Kaida wanted to try Ichiraku ramen, the shop was quite a distance away from their house and it took some time to get there, that's why he decided to try it after some time.

After eating, they went back to their rooms where Kaida slept today as he had already gone 5 days without sleeping.

Both of them woke up at 4:30 and after completing their morning work, they went towards the training area.

This time they had only done physical exercise for 2 hours and for the remaining time, they practiced the moves Kenji had taught them yesterday.

Kaida corrected Yomi's posture and mistakes from time to time. By the time they had to stop their training, Yomi was also able to perform all the moves without any major issues. Yes, there were some minor issues, but they would be rectified after practice.

Both of them took a bath (in their own house) and went towards the academy. This time Ryota sat with them; of course, Kiba was also there.

When Kenji came to class, he began teaching about hand signs followed by chakra control and taijutsu as this was their schedule for a whole week.

Kaida and Yomi's days became monotonous for 1 week with their schedule being morning workout and taijutsu in the morning, academy till 3:00 PM,

Then practicing what they were taught in the class for the rest of the day, with only dinner being something interesting as they decided to try all the local restaurants in their area
