"Naruto! Your Tempest Kick is so powerful!"
Rock Lee looked at Naruto, who was constantly slashing out air waves, his eyes full of surprise.
Without Anbu's interference, Naruto's training became bolder, and his proficiency in the Six Styles, which had been progressing slowly before, began to increase rapidly.
Of course, most of the credit goes to the ability of God Rewards Hard Work. In Rock Lee's eyes, Naruto was a super genius who could learn anything quickly.
"I'm only just getting started with Shaving!"
Rock Lee said a little frustrated.
Naruto did not name the Six Styles the Marine Six Styles, but it was still called the Six Styles—simple and clear.
"You're already doing pretty well, okay!"
Naruto rolled his eyes at Rock Lee. He had the ability to cheat, but Lee relied entirely on his own hard work and talent.
Just taking his current physical skills as an example, they were in no way inferior to those of Genin. Even with only the basic knowledge of the Six Styles, Lee's actual combat ability was not bad either.
After all, he was still in the stage of laying the foundation, and even he was currently estimated to be at the level of a Special Jōnin.
"Lee, let me spar with you."
Naruto, having achieved some success, was in a particularly good mood.
"That's great. I also want to try out my current level!"
Hearing Naruto's words, Rock Lee with thick eyebrows and big eyes immediately agreed. It was called sparring, but in fact, it was Naruto's guidance. Little did he know that every time Naruto fought, a voice would come from his body.
"Combat experience +5, Six Styles +2!"
This was why Naruto could become stronger so quickly.
God Rewards Hard Work gave Naruto the method to become stronger, but Naruto still needed to hone his skills continuously.
Naruto also accumulated combat experience through fighting with Rock Lee, and sometimes even sparred with Uzuki Yugao. However, during this process, Naruto always used the perception ability of Kagura's Mind's Eye.
Rock Lee stretched out one hand and put the other behind his back. This posture was exactly the same as the one in which Rock Lee appeared in the original work.
The two looked at each other, and for a moment, an invisible aura surrounded them. The next moment, Rock Lee disappeared from the spot, and his feet turned into countless afterimages. It was Shaving!
"Tempest Kick!"
Naruto jumped into the air and kept kicking out crescent-shaped air waves in the direction Lee was coming from.
Rock Lee kept dodging Naruto's attacks. He had also learned a little bit of Tempest Kick. Although he couldn't kick out a vacuum wave yet, he was able to enhance his leg strength.
Relying on the speed brought by Shaving, Rock Lee kept approaching Naruto and kept kicking him with the Tempest Kick!
"Iron Body!"
BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!!!
As Rock Lee continued to kick Naruto, the sound of metal clashing broke out.
"Iron Body proficiency +2!"
Naruto raised the corner of his mouth and also moved quickly using Shaving.
Rock Lee's eyes narrowed and he crossed his arms in front of his head, protecting it tightly.
The next moment, Naruto kicked Rock Lee's arm heavily, and Lee immediately retreated, leaving a five-meter-long gully under his feet.
Rock Lee swung his arms and stepped out again. His speed increased dramatically. He spun several times in the air and kicked toward Naruto.
A hint of admiration flashed in Naruto's eyes. Use the inertia of rotation to increase strength?
Naruto raised the corner of his mouth and punched the sky. Rock Lee's foot and Naruto's fist collided heavily, forming a shock wave.
Lee rolled back from the force, then stepped on the ground and rushed directly at Naruto.
The two fought instantly, and the sound of their collisions echoed all around.
After a while, they had fought for dozens of rounds.
Rock Lee was breathing heavily as he watched Naruto attack him.
From the beginning until now, the strength and speed of Naruto's attacks had not decreased.
"Iron Body!"
Rock Lee could only use Iron Body for defense, but because his Iron Body was too weak, he was knocked away.
Rock Lee, who was knocked away, lay on the ground gasping for breath.
"Not bad this time, you lasted two more minutes!"
Naruto said with a smile and walked up to Lee, pulling him up.
"This is youth!"
Rock Lee gave Naruto a thumbs-up, and Naruto thought that if Lee ever endorsed toothpaste, it would definitely sell well.
"Tomorrow is the day to decide the top student, right?"
Naruto said somewhat meaningfully.
Lee didn't notice anything strange and said directly, "Yes! The annual top student battle is starting again!"
This was just like Naruto's final exams in his previous life. In fact, in this world, exams were also required, and the top student was called the "chief student."
"Are there any outstanding people in your class?"
Naruto asked Lee.
At this point, Rock Lee's eyes lit up and he said, "Well! There's a very strong person, a genius!"
When Lee talked about a genius, there was no fluctuation in his expression, as if genius was nothing special.
"There's a guy named Hyuga Neji who's very strong in Taijutsu and is from the Hyuga clan!"
If it had been before, Rock Lee would have felt more emotional toward Neji, but now, with the comparison to the super-pervert Naruto, Hyuga Neji didn't seem so special.
Even now, Rock Lee's strength surpassed Neji's. Although Neji was very talented, he was ultimately a branch family member, and the Hyuga clan did not devote many resources to him.
If Neji had been trained by the main family from the beginning, he would at least be Jōnin-level by the time the original story began.
Hyuga Neji was also the first of the Konoha 12 to be promoted to Jōnin, and the only one among them to die in battle.
Naruto couldn't help but hiss when he remembered how Neji died to save him in the original story. He was just an object to be used. He must have been deeply disappointed with Konoha.
Naruto planned to find an opportunity to contact Hyuga Neji, but the Caged Bird Seal was troublesome. If it couldn't be removed, Neji's talent might never be fully realized.
It seems that studying sealing techniques should be put on the agenda!
Naruto thought about it, then filled the hole in the ground.
He used the Earth Style ninjutsu he learned from Uzuki Yugao. After successfully controlling her, Naruto gained quite a few benefits.
However, Uzuki Yugao didn't know many ninjutsu. Her chakra attributes were Earth and Wind, and she usually focused on kenjutsu.
Still, Naruto managed to learn several ninjutsu from her for free, including Wind Style: Wind Cutter, Wind Style: Gale Palm, and Wind Style: Great Breakthrough—all common C-rank techniques.
However, there was also a B-rank technique: Wind Style: Vacuum Great Sphere!
It's an upgraded version of the Vacuum Sphere seen in the original work, used by Danzo. Its power was decent.
Still, it was far inferior to the Rasengan. Once Naruto was free from surveillance, he took the opportunity to master this ninjutsu. After all, there were records of it in the original storyline.
He also learned two or three Earth Style techniques: Earth Style: Earth Wall, Earth Style: Underground Submersion, Earth Style: Rising Spears, and Earth Style: Splitting Earth Palm—all fairly common techniques.
No wonder Yugao specialized in kenjutsu.
Her Crescent Moon Dance was quite powerful and almost reached the level of an A-rank technique.
