The remaining dust swirled around Reiji, making him appear even more mysterious.
Reiji's gaze was sharp, yet there was a hint of pride within it as he looked at Kushina.
"You are quite clever," Reiji said in a calm tone.
"Combining Explosive Tag Sealing Jutsu with Area Locking Sealing Jutsu... that's interesting."
"In this way, you ensure that the target remains within the circle you created, then trap them inside."
"After that, the Sealing Jutsu from the Explosive Tags activates gradually, exploding from all directions—left, right, front, back, above, and below."
"A rather creative combination."
Hearing the compliment, Kushina merely chuckled softly, hiding her pride in her laughter.
"Hehe... Really?" Kushina asked casually.
Although inside, Kushina felt a bit proud to have created something that caught Reiji's attention.
"Yes," Reiji replied, his smile widening, but his expression soon turned serious.
"But this strategy is only effective if the enemy stays in place."
"In a real fight, your opponent won't just stand still and let themselves be caught in a trap like this."
"I know..." Kushina nodded calmly. "I've thought about that before."
Reiji observed Kushina's expression and then smiled with satisfaction. "That's good then."
After that, Reiji shifted his gaze around the room.
Even though this basement had been reinforced with various defensive seals, the impact from the recent explosion was still quite visible—some walls were cracked.
The floor showed signs of burning, and the air was still filled with remnants of chakra energy hanging around.
Reiji let out a soft sigh.
"There are still a few days left before you leave, right?" Reiji asked, looking back at Kushina.
Kushina nodded.
"Starting today and tomorrow, you will continue to practice using Sealing Jutsu as quickly, practically, and efficiently as possible."
Reiji's face shone with strong determination.
He did not want any mistakes in this training.
For Reiji, Kushina had to go to Konoha well-prepared, especially in terms of Sealing Jutsu.
Kushina smiled widely, her enthusiasm clearly visible.
"I understand! Please help me, Brother Reiji!" Kushina said eagerly.
Meanwhile, in the corner of the room, Karina could only remain silent.
Kushina's gaze was directed at Kushina, but there was a flash of sadness in Karina's eyes.
For a moment, Karin seemed like she wanted to say something, but before her lips could part,
Karina quickly averted her gaze, trying to hide her feelings.
...
...
...
Time passed quickly.
Since that conversation, Reiji had hardly any time to rest.
He continuously taught Kushina various Sealing Jutsu techniques, testing her, and forcing the girl to adapt to more difficult situations.
In a short time, Reiji managed to teach Kushina a variety of Sealing Jutsu:
High-explosive offensive type Sealing Jutsu, capable of destroying an opponent in one massive attack.
Offensive type Sealing Jutsu with a barrage of attacks, allowing the user to continuously pressure the enemy.
Support type Sealing Jutsu for facing multiple enemies, useful in group battles.
Support type Sealing Jutsu for facing stronger opponents, allowing the user to endure longer and even turn the tide.
Although Kushina initially struggled, she quickly grasped the techniques Reiji taught her.
The girl indeed had a natural talent for Sealing Jutsu, something not everyone possessed.
In between their training, Reiji also met with Ise, who was developing a chakra-based ninja tool as instructed by Reiji.
There were some issues in the development stage, as he was busy with Kushina, so Reiji decided to postpone the development of the magical tool for a while.
However, all of that was now unimportant.
The last day had arrived.
...
...
...
The sky looked overcast, as if it too felt the somber atmosphere.
The wind blew gently, carrying a coldness that seeped into the heart.
