011 - Tenten

The first thing Sasuke did when they reached the Uchiha training ground was to give a basic Kenjutsu demonstration. He couldn’t show them anything advanced, but Ino and Sakura already had blushes, and Tenten had stars in her eyes.

After the demonstration, Sasuke proceeded to explain that their training would focus on chakra control. Tenten was jumping with excitement. Apparently, her idol was Lady Tsunade, and she aspired to become a medical ninja. Tenten had read that the most important requirement for learning medical ninjutsu is chakra control. She had already mastered the chakra balancing exercise beyond the normal scope, but she didn’t know any more control exercises because she came from a civilian family. This was a great opportunity for her.

“It’s nice seeing a girl with ambition. If you follow my training, your chakra control will improve by leaps and bounds,” Sasuke commented.

Sakura and Ino practically threw fire from their eyes toward Tenten. Sasuke had already told them that he liked strong kunoichi, but they still disliked watching him compliment a girl in front of them.

Sasuke told them about tree walking and water walking and the requirements to proceed. Sakura and Ino could perform the leaf exercise but never bothered to do it for more than 1 hour.

Sasuke gave some advice to Tenten about tree walking and even made a demonstration for her. The girl was so excited that she gave Sasuke a hug without thinking. When she realized what she had done, she turned completely red.

Watching this spectacle, Sakura and Ino failed to keep the leaf on their foreheads at the 5-minute mark.

After the explanations, Sasuke went to the pond next to the training ground. He explained to the girls that he was going to train at water walking until 22:00 . The girls were extremely surprised by the amount of training. Sasuke also told them that he had made arrangements to have food delivered to him and advised them to bring their own food if they planned to train together with him in the future.

Three hours had passed since the beginning of the training. Sakura and Ino managed to achieve the 3-hour mark immediately. Now that their goal was to become strong to impress Sasuke, there was nothing stopping them from focusing.

Tenten was still struggling with tree walking, but she had a focused and determined expression. She was so focused that she was in her own world and didn’t even think about food.

Sakura and Ino, having succeeded, decided that it was time for them to have a meal and went to find Sasuke to say goodbye.

However, as soon as they had a good view of the pond, both girls turned into statues. Sasuke was shirtless, only wearing a pair of short training pants. His skin was otherworldly. The tone of his skin was pale white, and there wasn’t a single imperfection. His muscles were developed to a perfect degree, and the veins in his hands were visible under his flawless skin. The lines on his stomach created a perfectly symmetrical ab pattern, and even his belly button was beautiful. Ino and Sakura, both extremely red, looked at each other with their mouths hanging open.

“How is it possible for someone to be so perfect? I can’t believe it,” Ino said.

“He said that he wanted us to be Chunin. Forget Chunin, I can even become Hokage for this,” Sakura said and, for the first time, expressed her inner voice.

The girls looked at each other again and started laughing excitedly. After watching him from behind the bushes for half an hour, they had enough and finally managed to say their goodbyes.

At the end of the evening, Sasuke had already attained a degree of mastery with water walking. The concept was to create chakra emission from your feet. You have to change the amount of chakra depending on the water’s movement. Sasuke was sure that he would be able to master this exercise completely in 3 days. However, he wasn’t satisfied with this level of mastery. This level of exercise was something that all genin have to learn at some point. Sasuke had already thought hundreds of variations that he wanted to master.

As usual Sasuke used his sharingan to exhaust his remaining chakra. With his improved control he could already keep it active for 8 minutes. It was a satisfying improvement.

Calling it a day, Sasuke took his way back to his home but came to a stop watching an interesting spectacle. Tenten was still in front of the tree doing the exercise. She had made good progress. She could already take several steps and almost reach the top.

‘This girl is really determined. Not bad at all. However, she isn’t obsessed with me like the rest of the girls, which makes it more difficult to use her. It seems that I have to seduce her a little,’ Sasuke thought.

Sasuke had already worn his shirt after the end of his training, but now he removed it once again. He approached the girl from behind, and when he was almost next to her, he finally talked to her.

‘Tenten, it’s already 22:00.’

The girl turned around frightened. It seems that she was too focused on her training. As soon as she saw Sasuke, she relaxed, but then her eyes turned down from his eyes to his torso and then to his abs. The girl had a slight change in her expression, and her cheeks turned red. After a brief silence, she said with embarrassment.

‘I am sorry, Sasuke, I lost track of time.’

‘Don’t worry about it. I enjoyed watching you train with so much focus and commitment. You are the most determined girl that I have seen in our age,’ Sasuke said with an innocent smile.

The girl got more embarrassed and struggled a little to talk but finally said ‘Thank you very much, Sasuke. I am grateful that you let me train with you.’

‘Don’t mention it. I really like having you here. I train here every day. I start at the end of our class and I stop at 22:00. You are welcome to join me whenever you want,’ Sasuke said with a big smile on his face.

Tenten blushed once again, but before she could reply, Sasuke continued,

‘I think that your parents would be worried. Did you tell them about our training?’ Sasuke asked.

‘Oh, no,’ she said with panic.

After saying the goodbyes, she immediately started running towards her home.

The next morning, Sasuke increased his extra weight to 20kg. His chakra control had increased exponentially since taking control of the body, and it was time to create new training variations.

Sasuke put one leaf on his forehead, one leaf on his left palm, and one leaf on his right before starting his physical training. It was challenging enough, but Sasuke knew he could do more. Instead of running the normal way, Sasuke decided to do his cardio on trees. This exercise pushed him really hard, and he struggled to keep the leaves from falling.

Sasuke also performed his abs routine and plenty of his stretching exercises while staying on the trees. At the end of his routine, his will was the only thing keeping his body moving, and he was completely exhausted.

‘That’s the kind of training that will help me reach the top,’ Sasuke thought, satisfied with his current progress.

Sasuke reached the classroom and immediately walked towards Tenten.

“Good morning, Tenten. Can I sit next to you?” he asked with a smile. A lot of girls watched them and looked at Tenten with jealousy.

“Of course, Sasuke, there is no need to ask,” she said with a small blush and a smile.

Immediately, Sasuke took out three leaves and started performing the leaf balancing exercise. Tenten was surprised.

“Are you going to do it in the class? And you are using three leaves?” she asked curiously.

“I don’t see why not. It’s part of our training after all. If I keep paying attention and answering questions, the teachers can’t complain. I already did it during my previous class. Also, one leaf is too easy for me, and I need a bigger challenge,” Sasuke said.

“Why didn’t I think about that before? I keep wasting my time in class while I could train? This is great,” she said.

“I have more leaves with me. Here, take them. We can train together,” Sasuke said and gave her three leaves, which made her excited.

During the breaks, Sasuke spent his time chatting with Tenten, and he learned a lot of information about her. He also learned about her obsession with weapons and especially swords.

The duo kept getting stares from the whole classroom. The fact that they were also covered with leaves didn’t help. Sasuke ignored all of them, and Tenten was ignorant.

“Tenten, tonight after training, I can show you the Uchiha weapon collection if you want. We have a lot of swords,” he said with a confident smile.

Tenten had once again stars in her eyes.
