Naruto: The Template System

Chapter 69: Shisui Uchiha



The noon sun shone on the woods as it revealed the scenery below of the quiet and the beautiful forest.

"I'm Shisui Uchiha, it's an honour to meet you, Kozuki Senpai"

Among the woods of the forest, stood three figures.

"Don't be so formal, just call me Kozuki"

Kozuki said looking at the boy in front with short unkempt black hair and black eyes and broad nose with a grey shirt having a broad collar covering his neck.

"Shisui, since you want to train under me then you'll have to be punctual, do you understand?"

Kozuki had already decided he will accept both Itachi and Shisui as his students.

"Yes, Kozuki Senpai"

Shisui was excited since he idolized Kozuki and his goal has always been to surpass him.

Kozuki was only four years older then him but he had such strength and reputation making him admire Kozuki.

"Attack me Shisui, I want to see your strength"

Kozuki first wanted to know about his strength and then formulate a plan for him.

"Please be careful, Kozuki Senpai!"

Shisui jumped back creating some distance from Kozuki and Itachi stood aside watching their fight.

Shisui took out few shurikens from his ninja bag throwing them towards Kozuki.

With Uchiha Clan's unique throwing technique, shurikens enclosed on Kozuki blocking his retreat.

Kozuki smiled looking at the shurikens and just narrowed his eyes slightly.

The shurikens in the air seemed to be stuck by something immediately blown away.

While Kozuki dealt with shurikens, Shisui quickly closed the distance between them his sword slashing towards Kozuki.

"Too slow"

commented Kozuki as he clamped the sword with his middle and index fingers and kicked Shisui in his stomach.

Poof...

Shisui turned into smoke disappearing before Kozuki's eyes.

"Fire Style! Fire Dragon Jutsu!"

Kozuki heard a voice from behind as a fire dragon roared towards him.

"Good but...not enough"

The dragon like the shurikens before seemed to be stuck by something immediately dissipating in the air.

Shisui jumped out from the woods as he stood in front of Kozuki.

"You're really strong Kozuki Senpai I couldn't even touch you, but I still have something I didn't show you yet"

Shisui with two tomoe spinning in his red eyes looked at Kozuki as he immediately folded several seals and shouted

"Shunshin no Jutsu"

Two Shisui ran opposite to each other enclosing Kozuki as they kept increasing and one of them attacked Kozuki.

Boom...

Kozuki easily blocked his kick with his hands and pushed him back.

"Afterimages!!!"

Kozuki immediately remembered that in anime Shisui was famous this for Jutsu and had a nickname "Shisui of the body flicker".

"Really a good Jutsu Shisui, but coincidentally I have the perfect way to counter it"

Kozuki looked at numerous Shisui in front and said lightly.

Shisui immediately got vigilant as his Sharingan spun sharply focusing on Kozuki.

Kozuki used his Observation Haki and immediately found the real Shisui, after which he exerted some force on his feet disappearing immediately.

Shisui felt a light tap on his shoulder from behind as he saw Kozuki looking at him with a smile.

"What horrifying speed, my Sharingan couldn't catch him at all"

Shisui was horrified looking at Kozuki, shocked by his strength.

"You really are a genius Shisui, with your current strength even a Tokubetsu Jonin would have a hard time against you"

Kozuki praised Shisui as in some ways Shisui was even better then Kakashi of the same age.

"I'm still far from you, Senpai"

Shisui was depressed since he couldn't even touch Kozuki.

"Don't get impatient, sometimes result doesn't matter all you need to know is that you gave it your all and that's enough"

Kozuki tapped Shisui on his shoulders encouraging him.

"I see, Kozuki Senpai"

Shisui smiled hearing his words as he kind of felt relieved after listening to him.

"Now let's start training, Itachi start your shuriken training and you Shusui wear these weights, you need to strengthen your body don't just keep focusing on Ninjutsu"

Kozuki handed Shisui the weights that he had kept in the system space who immediately put them on and started his training.

Kozuki also unsheathed his sword as no matter how strong he was he still had to complete the daily sword swinging task.

_______________

Evening.

The setting sun with it's red glow dyed the whole sky.

"I can't anymore"

Shisui fell down on the ground after completing a high intensity workout with weights on and even Itachi beside couldn't withstand the whole day of training

"I wasn't expecting you both to last this long So, as a reward I'll treat you both to ramen"

Kozuki was really satisfied with his near future students as they really had the will to endure any hardship.

"Thanks, Sensei"

Both Shisui and Itachi unknowingly started calling Kozuki "Sensei", who didn't mind and was happy he had two genius students.

"Let's go, I'm really hungry"

Kozuki moved forward as both Shisui and Itachi stood up with difficulty and followed him but both of them had a satisfied smile on their faces as they liked such peaceful times.
