Chapter 41 - 41 (1/2)
Ryo took a leave of absence from the hospital. The next day, he arrived at the gate and waited for the arrival of Yugao.
They say that a woman in love has an IQ of 0. And looking at Ryo, things were not much better for men. Yesterday, he and Yugao agreed to meet up the next day, without determining a precise hour.
Ryo waited for 2 hours at the hospital's entrance before Yugoa turned up running breathlessly with a short sword in her hand.
Seeing her, Ryo blinked to where she was.
”Ryo… Ryo san.. have you… been waiting for too long?” The little Lolita obviously ran all the way here. The stopped and tried to take a breath.
”No, I just came out of the hospital.” Ryo responded. ”Yugao, let's go to the 3rd training ground. There, we'll find the teacher who will train you.”
”Great!” When the subject is Kenjutsu, Yugao's eyes shine brightly.
In the 3rd training ground, Kakashi, who was invited by Ryo, was chopping a bunch of wooden pegs while murmuring. If you get close enough to him, you would hear him say: ”Ryo yaro, you've picked up the habit of being late from Obito.”
When Ryo arrived, he ignored Kakashi's angry eyes and introduced him to Yugao:
”Yugao, this is Kakashi Hatake, my friend, and the next sword-master of the Hatake clan. Let him teach you!”
”What? Ryo, you call me this early in the morning to teach a little girl Kenjutsu?”
Kakashi actually though that Ryo was about to show him something important, so he arrived here in the early morning. The result was that he had to wait for him for 2 hours. Now that he learned that Ryo called him just to teach a little girl Kenjutsu, he was furious.
The little loli was excited when she knew about Kakashi's heritage as a Hatake. But then she heard him refuse teaching her, her little face turned pale.
A child cannot hide his emotions. When Ryo saw Yugao's face, he decided to make Kakashi change his mind.
”Kakashi, I'm giving you another chance. Not teaching?”
”Not teaching!”
Right as he heard his answer, Ryo's Lightning Chakra Mode broke out, and he immediately appeared behind Kakashi.
While Ryo has been practicing for the past two years, the genius Kakashi was also developing his skills.
Ryo has achieved success with the Lightning Chakra mode by following Sakumo's teachings. But being trained by Konoha's White Fang was not something exclusive to him.
The Hatake's Kenjutsu was based on Taijutsu, same as their Lighting Chakra mode. So Kakashi learned that mode to enhance his reflexes and speed.
Right as Ryo started his mode, Kakashi already discovered what he was on to. So he left a shadow clone in his place, and used the lightning Chakra mode to dodge.
Ryo didn't activate the Sharingan so he didn't actually realize Kakashi's trick.
He never imagined that Kakashi would out-speed him and split in a flash. Now that he's exposed Kakashi wouldn't let this opportunity go waste.
He drew his Dagger, and Chakra went through it looking like he was using Chidori Blade.
”Well done Kakashi, you now can use Chidori Blade!”
”I don't have your Sharingan. My eyes can't keep up with the Chidori yet. It seems like you can only think about that Justu. This is no longer a simple Chidori Blade.”
”What do you mean?” Kakashi's words made Ryo notice that the current flowing through this blade felt indeed different from a Chidori.
