I Can Become Stronger Just By Teaching

Chapter 61: Learning Fuinjutsu

After finishing the disciple's training on Sunday afternoon, Makoto went to the main city area and went directly to Minato's home instead of going to his home.

When they were having dinner at Makoto's place last night, Kushina and Minato told Makoto that they had almost mastered the meat croquet practice and were going to officially start doing it tomorrow afternoon. Makoto could go over and have a look if he had time.

When Makoto arrived, the two of them had just finished cooking the pork belly and were preparing to color it with soy sauce.

When Makoto was about to step forward to help, he was stopped by Kushina.

"Makoto, just watch. If there is anything wrong with the steps, you can correct me. No need for help." Kushina said.

After eating at Makoto's house every night, Kushina was too embarrassed to ask Makoto to help.

Minato took a fruit plate poured a glass of water for Makoto and said with a gentle smile:

"Makoto, you don't need to help today. You will be the invigilator."

Minato and Kushina had an idea and felt that they should do it by themselves this time.

"Then I'm going to be lazy," Makoto said with a smile.

"You can use a skewer to poke some small holes in the skin of the meat and then pour soy sauce. This will make the meat more flavorful and make it looser when fried later." Makoto reminded.

Kushina & Minato realized that they had forgotten such a small detail.

Under Makoto's reminder, Kushina and Minato completed each step in an orderly manner, frying slices, seasoning, steaming... It was already dark by the time the two of them finished their work

.

"Although this braised pork is delicious, it is also very troublesome to make. You must be very hungry, Makoto." Kushina asked.

Compared with some of the home-cooked dishes she usually makes, braised pork is much more troublesome. It is obviously one dish, but it actually requires three steps of boiling, frying and steaming.

"Fortunately, after all, I was just watching from the side," Makoto replied.

While the two were talking, Minato brought up the finished pork belly.

"Next, let's ask Teacher Makoto to give grades." Minato joked.

"Haiya, you've been busy for so long. Why not taste the fruits of your labor first, you know?" Makoto was not in a hurry to taste it, but chose to let Minato Kushina eat it first.

"Then let's eat together." Kushina, who was already very hungry, decided not to do so many foolish things.

The three of them swiftly dished out the rice and declared, "Let's go, let's go!" They enthusiastically tucked in.

"Yes, it's this fat but not greasy feeling!" Picking up a piece of meat and putting it in her mouth, and then taking a mouthful of rice with chopsticks, Kushina showed an excited expression on her face, feeling full of accomplishment.

She felt that her time was not wasted and she successfully learned a delicious dish.

Although she felt that Makoto's cooking was more delicious, Kushina felt that there was no one in the world who could cook better than Makoto. Isn't it normal to be slightly worse than the best in the world?

"When Jiraiya-sensei comes back, I will definitely make it for him to try," Minato said while eating.

Minato was also very satisfied with this plate of pork, so he wanted to share it with Jiraiya.

"Well, the degree of completion is very high, and there are no major shortcomings," Makoto also praised it after tasting it.

It's not that he just wants to gain a good impression, but this dish is not difficult to cook at home, and with his guidance, the finished product will naturally be good.

However, an embarrassing scene soon occurred, that is, they finished eating the braised pork very quickly, and the three of them stared at each other.

"Sorry, I forgot to cook other dishes," Minato came to his senses, looking at the empty plate.

"I was so focused that I completely forgot about it," Kushina showed an embarrassed smile.

"Let me stir-fry two dishes," Makoto stood up and said.

"This is not good; you are a guest, how can you let the guests cook," Kushina was a little moved, but she felt that this was not good.

"Then, you want me to go home and make it and bring it over?" Makoto asked with a smile.

"I'll wash the vegetables," Minato stood up silently.

Kushina thought about the taste of Makoto's cooking and finally nodded uncontrollably.

"Makoto, aren't you interested in sealing techniques? What sealing techniques have you been learning recently? I can teach you some sealing techniques," Kushina, who was sitting at the dining table with nothing to do, couldn't help but ask.

Kushina was genuinely grateful and wanted to repay Makoto for having a meal at her house.

"I'm still reading various theoretical books. Do you have any recommended sealing techniques, preferably those in the library?" Makoto thought for a moment and said.

"If you haven't started learning yet, how about I teach you an introductory sealing technique from our Uzumaki clan, and you can also test your sealing technique talent. If you learn it in one day, you are a sealing technique genius; you can get it in one week. If you have the talent for sealing for more than a month, it is not recommended to waste time on sealing," Kushina said.

"How long did it take for you to learn it, Kushina?" Makoto asked while heating the oil in the pot.

"One day," Kushina replied proudly, and she waited for Makoto to ask.

"Oh? Our Kushina is a genius," Makoto teased.

"Generally, that is, I have learned most of the sealing techniques of our Uzumaki clan," Kushina said modestly, her smile barely contained.

After the meal, Kushina handed Makoto a scroll and then went to wash the dishes, while Minato explained the details of the sealing technique to Makoto.

Makoto listened intently, more seriously than ever before.

"This sealing technique is called the one-finger speed seal. It creates a seal that blocks chakra very quickly. However, the restraint strength is not strong, and it is easy to break. It has no practical significance; it is generally only used for entry-level training," Minato explained.

Makoto, either due to Minato's expert teaching or his innate sealing talent, found this one-finger seal quite straightforward. He didn't show it, though, only asking questions from time to time.

...

On Monday, Kotetsu went to the ninja school early. Seeing that Kamizuki Izumo had not yet arrived, he nodded with satisfaction. He put a novel on the table and then started reading the school textbook.

After feeling that Kamizuki Izumo was about to arrive, Kotetsu put the textbook away, leaving only the novel on it.

"Kotetsu, didn't you say you don't need to review? Why did you come here to read so early?" Kamizuki Izumo, who studied until one o'clock in the morning last night, asked in surprise.

Kotetsu raised the novel in his hand and said, "There's no need to review. This is a new ninja novel that was published recently. It's really good." Kamizuki Izumo looked at the cover pattern and the title of the book before he felt relieved and smiled. Said:

"Escaping into novels for relaxation is indeed a wise choice."

"Turns out Kotetsu enjoys reading novels. I should get him a best-seller and let him immerse himself in novels for a couple of weeks," Kamizuki Izumo thought to himself.

He felt that his top position was becoming increasingly secure.

"Izumo, you seem a bit drained. Were you up late studying? That's not good for your health or exam performance," Kotetsu asked, a concerned expression on his face.

"No, I was gaming with my cousin last night and lost track of time, so I ended up staying awake quite late," Kamizuki Izumo explained with an air of casual indifference.

"Gaming for relaxation. Not a bad choice at all," Kotetsu remarked with a smile, convinced that his first-place position was only growing more secure.

With this, he decided to inquire more about various games after school and even planned to buy some for Kamizuki Izumo to enjoy daily over the next two weeks.

"What novel? What game?" The ever-inquisitive Anko inquired as she entered the classroom.
