At Naruto's house.
Lee stretched his body, then looked at the time and said anxiously, "It's already seven o'clock! If I don't leave now, I'll be late!"
But just as he was putting on his clothes, a "grumble grumble" sound rang out.
Lee covered his rumbling stomach, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"I forgot I haven't eaten breakfast yet."
"Lee, don't go to school today, take a day off!"
Just then, Zephyr spoke, pointing to the somewhat damp clothes on the ground and continuing, "Besides, you can't go to school wearing these sweat-soaked clothes!"
Hearing Zephyr's words, Lee was conflicted, but after thinking about it, he figured his teacher probably wouldn't care whether he went to school or not.
Lee's current situation could be said to be very bad; to graduate from the Ninja Academy, the most basic Three Body Technique had to be passed, but in the teachers' eyes, it was almost impossible for Lee to pass, so no teacher held any hope for him.
"Alright, Teacher Zephyr!"
Lee also called Zephyr "Teacher Zephyr," mimicking Naruto.
In Lee's opinion, this Teacher Zephyr should be Naruto's second personality.
Naruto used the Shadow Clone Technique again, summoning Grey Wolf.
"Grey Wolf, help me knock out a washing machine with a drying function!"
Grey Wolf heard this and immediately began working without a word.
It was just a washing machine; in only about ten minutes, Grey Wolf had knocked it out.
After washing the clothes, Naruto and Lee went to Ichiraku Ramen together.
After eating, Naruto originally planned to get some good sleep, as he had woken up too early today.
But before he could fall asleep, Zephyr woke him up.
"Next, I will be teaching theoretical knowledge. This is very important. Get up and attend the lesson!"
"There are theoretical lessons too?"
Naruto hadn't expected that besides daily training, he would also need to attend theoretical lessons.
At this moment, Lee was already sitting in front of the blackboard, eager to learn, waiting for Zephyr to begin.
Through the events of this morning, Lee had developed the same feeling towards Zephyr as he did towards Might Guy.
Moreover, Zephyr, or rather Naruto, was also full of confidence in himself, just like Might Guy.
Naruto rubbed his eyes and sat down next to Lee.
The theoretical lessons Zephyr taught were very basic, but also very important.
Besides running posture, there were also topics such as how to breathe, how to recover stamina faster, how to better utilize muscles, and explanations of the functions of various body parts.
Compared to training, theoretical lessons were more difficult for Lee.
But Lee felt that everything Zephyr taught made a lot of sense, and he was working hard to remember this knowledge, furiously taking notes that only he could understand.
Just like that, an entire morning passed.
Lee and Naruto both benefited greatly from Zephyr's teachings.
Naruto knew that this knowledge was actually the foundation for learning and using the Marine Six Forms.
Naruto didn't have a system or anything that could directly impart knowledge; if he wanted to learn something, he could only do it step by step.
Thankfully, Lee was there, otherwise Naruto would have found it even more tedious and boring.
"Naruto, what are we eating for lunch?" Lee put away his notes and asked with some anticipation.
Hearing Lee's words, Zephyr spoke first, before Naruto could.
"Today's meal will be prepared by me. To be precise, since you are training with me, I will prepare all your future meals."
Naruto heard this and looked at Zephyr in disbelief, "Teacher Zephyr, you can even cook?"
"Of course, I used to prepare all the meal plans for my students!"
With that, Zephyr casually took some money and went out to buy groceries.
Watching Zephyr leave, Naruto thought, "Teacher Zephyr wouldn't possibly dislike those muggle villagers and beat them up, would he?"
Zephyr walked alone onto the street.
At this time, Zephyr looked like Uzumaki Naruto, and many muggle villagers naturally pointed and whispered when they saw Uzumaki Naruto.
Zephyr had long anticipated such a situation.
With his temperament, he naturally wouldn't bother with these people.
Arriving at a butcher shop, Zephyr intended to buy some meat.
But... as soon as Zephyr entered the butcher shop, the butcher shop owner shooed him out as if he had seen a fly.
"This is really troublesome!"
Zephyr thought helplessly, "It seems impossible to buy anything!"
Thinking this, Zephyr walked towards the Konoha forest, knowing there were some wild animals there.
There were many wild boars, wild bears, rabbits, pheasants, and the like; just catching a few would be enough for Naruto and Lee to eat.
As soon as Zephyr arrived at the forest, he heard a series of wild animal roars.
Following the sound, Zephyr saw two teenagers hunting a huge wild boar in a clearing in the woods.
"Hmm? Is that Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke?"
At this time, Uchiha Itachi was circling the wild boar, while Uchiha Sasuke was holding a bow and arrow, preparing to ambush it!
Zephyr's gaze made Itachi, who was fighting the wild boar, frown, and he immediately looked in Zephyr's direction.
Just then, the wild boar seized the opportunity and charged, goring Itachi in the stomach.
Its sharp tusks instantly pierced Itachi's body.
Sasuke saw this and cried out anxiously,
"Brother..."
Just then, the original Itachi turned into a substitution log with a "bang."
Seeing that Uchiha Itachi was fine, Sasuke finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But what Sasuke didn't notice was that not far behind him, a smaller wild boar was approaching him.
Although it was smaller than the wild boar fighting Itachi, it was definitely more than enough to kill Sasuke.
Zephyr and Uchiha Itachi simultaneously sensed the presence of that wild boar.
Itachi immediately abandoned his struggle with the large wild boar and rushed towards Sasuke.
However, by the time he reached Sasuke, it was already too late; the wild boar's tusks were less than a meter from Sasuke's rear.
"Sasuke, get out of the way!"
At this moment, Itachi could only shout for Sasuke to get out of the way.
Hearing Itachi's words, Sasuke subconsciously turned his head to look instead of dodging.
Seeing this, Itachi's eyes immediately turned red, and his Three-Tomoe Sharingan spun in his eyes.
Just as he was about to use genjutsu to control the wild boar, a small figure instantly appeared between Sasuke and the wild boar, directly clamping the wild boar's tusks with both hands.
It was none other than Zephyr who saved Sasuke.
"Although it's not as big as that one, it should be enough for them to eat for a few days!"
After speaking, Zephyr covered his arm with Armament Haki, and with a strong squeeze of both hands, the clamped tusks immediately shattered.
After destroying the wild boar's tusks, Zephyr jumped up and punched the wild boar's forehead.
After this punch, blood flowed from the wild boar's nose, eyes, ears, and mouth; clearly, Zephyr's punch had directly killed the wild boar.
But something Zephyr hadn't expected also happened: although he had killed the wild boar, Naruto's Shadow Clone also vanished in a puff of white smoke.
