65 Chapter 64

"I have to complete twenty-five questions every day for ten consecutive days to clear all the installments," Obito calculated as he made his way to the southern forest, weighed down by this task.

"Even during my vacation... I can't seem to catch a break," Obito lamented, scratching his head in frustration.

It was challenging not only to clear his existing debts but also to keep up with the new ones piling up daily. Obito couldn't help but feel like he was trapped in an endless cycle of answering questions.

Obito couldn't shake the feeling that if he continued down this path, he'd be stuck answering questions every day for the rest of his life.

Upon his arrival, Makoto called Obito and Might Gai together and said, "Given that the final exam is just a week away, I'm going to adjust our training plan."

Obito was immediately concerned, "Change the training plan? There's only a week left, is that really necessary?"

Makoto reassured him, "I'm going to suspend the Taijutsu combat training for now and focus on individual training."

Makoto's eyes twinkled with a hint of mischief as he said, "Are you sure we don't need to make changes?"

Obito was taken aback, "Well, I believe it's necessary."

For Obito, the absence of battles and new questions was crucial.

Obito cheekily praised Makoto, saying, "Teacher Makoto, your decision is nothing short of brilliant. It's like a stroke of genius and incredible strategic thinking..."

Makoto playfully knocked Obito on the head, "You're exaggerating, Obito."

He continued, "But remember, even though you won't be participating in battles this week, you're still responsible for completing the previous questions within their time limits."

Obito, who was nursing his sore head, agreed with a smile, "I'll make sure to get it done."

He secretly wished that a few more knocks on the head could somehow reduce the number of questions he had to answer.

Makoto then turned to Might Gai and asked, "What do you think, Gai?"

Obito anxiously watched Gai, fearing that he might say something stupid.

Gai quickly responded, "I think it's a great idea!"

Might Gai had no love for answering questions, so any change that minimized that aspect of their training was welcome.

Obito breathed a sigh of relief and gave Gai a thumbs up, which Gai returned with a brilliant smile.

*Ting*

They were in agreement.

Makoto addressed the group, "Everyone, practice hard this week. I won't interfere; you can train as you see fit and leave whenever you like."

Obito was overjoyed.

"Shisui, come here," Makoto called Shisui, who was practicing diligently.

Shisui stopped practicing and walked over to Makoto.

"After a month of intensive training, your body has grown significantly stronger, and you can now begin practicing the new Instant Body Technique," Makoto declared.

Shisui had focused solely on body training for the past month, and the results were evident. His body was much stronger than before. With the system's secret medicine repairing his body and alleviating hidden injuries, Makoto had been pushing Shisui to his limits every day.

Moreover, Shisui displayed a natural talent for teleportation techniques, which made Makoto believe he could pass it on to him.

Obito inquired, "But didn't you say that we have to rank first in the practical exam?"

Makoto responded confidently, "Do you think Shisui won't achieve the top spot in his year? I'm rewarding him in advance."

With Shisui present, the outcome of the first-year practical exam had been determined well before it had even started, leaving no room for suspense.

Makoto reached out and grabbed Shisui, appearing more than ten meters away.

Obito's eyes were filled with longing when he saw Makoto's teleportation in action. The possibilities of such a technique made it seem incredibly cool.

He imagined himself walking into a classroom and, with a wave of his hand, disappearing from the door and reappearing at his desk. When a teacher asked him to come to the front to answer questions, he would vanish and suddenly appear at the podium, much to the teacher's surprise.

Might Gai, observing Makoto's teleportation, thought to himself that if he could learn this technique, he might have a chance against Kakashi.

"I must secure first place in the practical exam, prove my strength to Rin, and make sure that arrogant Kakashi never underestimates me again," Obito swore quietly.

He had been on the receiving end of Kakashi's taunts too many times and was determined to prove himself this time.

Obito also considered the high-speed teleportation technique Makoto was teaching Shisui. He believed that mastering it would enhance his own speed.

"It's so fast. If I can learn this teleportation technique, I might even have a shot at beating Kakashi!" Might Gai thought to himself as he watched Makoto disappear and reappear in an instant.

Might Gai knew that, while he was fast for Obito, he was still not fast enough to challenge Kakashi effectively.

Excitement coursed through Might Gai's veins as he contemplated the possibility of surprising Kakashi with the high-speed teleportation technique. While he may not defeat Kakashi, he could at least avoid the embarrassment he had experienced during their previous encounter.

"In order to surpass Kakashi, I must claim the top spot in the practical exam and master this teleportation technique!" Might Gai vowed with determination.

Makoto had successfully motivated Obito and Might Gai to strive for excellence.

As Makoto began teaching Shisui the teleportation technique, he explained, "This teleportation technique is called 'Soru.' The primary challenge lies in the ability to burst chakra multiple times in rapid succession to strengthen your body, enabling high-speed movement."

Shisui was surprised by the technique, saying, "Burst chakra multiple times in a short period? This is new."

The Body Flicker technique Shisui had learned previously only required a single chakra burst, and overusing it would quickly exhaust him. Thus, he understood that Soru was a more advanced form of high-speed movement.

Excited for his upcoming training, Shisui believed that mastering Soru would significantly enhance his speed.
