5 Chapter 5

Today was a day unlike any other as all the students of a particular class was excited and raring to go to start their academy.

If it was before today then they wouldn't have been too excited but after yesterday's lesson they were itching to learn more. Why wouldn't they? When they got significant improvements with a single lesson.

Akira watched as all the students looked at him in admiration. He looked at Iruka and saw that he was dumbfounded as well.

"Akira-niichan hurry up and teach us new techniques!" Naruto excitedly said.

No one berated Naruto like usual as they were all hyped up as well.

"It's Akira-sensei now while I am teaching, Naruto." Akira admonished.

"Before we begin our Taijutsu classes you all need to attend Iruka-sensei's history class." With that all the students groaned in dissatisfaction.

Iruka had red face due to embarrassment since all students prefered Akira more than him.

As soon as the history lesson ended, all the students cheered as if they had just won the battle of their life. Iruka could only shake his head at that.

"Alright everyone before we begin, did you all find out about the uses of breathing exercises I gave?" Akira asked.

"Troublesome... it enabled to properly optimise our body performance according to the set of rythm we followed. Faster breathing rythm enables us to increase our dexterity and longer breathing rythm enables to increase our strength and packing the air in our lungs without inhaling air allows us to increase our perception. Lastly short astronomical burst of strength can be gained through pausing breath with certain inhalation of air." Shikamaru gave the detailed understanding of the use of breathing exercises as whole class got a better understanding of it.

"There were also optional exercises meant to increase our mental fortitude which is extremely useful for stressful situations." Hinata nodded at that as she has always been using that breathing exercise.

Akira was impressed by the lazy genius.

'I guess he really is how the series portrayed him to be.'

"Excellent! Since you all now know it's uses lets head out and start our new exercise. But don't forget about the breathing exercises I gave, alright?" Akira said as all the students excitedly nodded.

Sasuke Uchiha was now extremely eagar to learn new things from Akira as his Sharingan was barely able stay dormant due to the excitement.

"In Taijutsu, the most important thing is to avoid danger and not try to block it head on. In order to do this I will give you a saying 'Move like a butterfly and sting like a bee'. Got it?" Akira said but all the students except one wearing black glasses was confused.

"Correct Akira-sensei. Why? Because a butterfly moves in a mesmerising manner which confuses it's enemies enabling it to dodge with ease and when striking if you strike like a bee, it will be with the intent to finish in a single blow as bees sting with the intent to finish off it's target with the cost of it's life." The boy explained with vigour as he was naturally fascinated with bugs.

The boy was Shino Aburame who hailed from a clan which mainly bred insects for combat. Being given a proverb regarding bugs, he was naturally enthusiastic.

"Aahh right! Shino Aburame, correct?" Akira asked and he gave a nod.

"Yes, like I said Shino is correct. So, maybe you all need a demonstration. Can I have the best and the worst Taijutsu fighter come up here." Akira called.

Sasuke strolled forward as he was the best Taijutsu fighter but no one came up for the worst.

"Naruto! Get up there! You are the worst fighter here. Don't waste our time!" Sakura yelled.

Naruto frowned as he didn't want his new nii-chan to think bad of him but Sakura already called out his name.

He couldn't help but get angry at her. He always got beat up by her because he tried to be friendly with her but he never got mad at her. Now, he was extremely angry as he glared at her.

Sakura was surprised as it was the first time Naruto was angry at her but didn't think much about it since she cared more about Sasuke anyways.

Naruto walked grumpily as Sasuke looked smugly at him, "Hey Dobe! What's with the long face?"

"Teme!!!" Naruto yelled at Sasuke ready to pounce on him.

Akira sighed as he knew about their rivalry, "Naruto, there's nothing wrong with being bad in something. It only means you know what to improve at. Unlike Sasuke you know what you are bad at which will make it easier for you to improve."

Sasuke frowned at what Akira was implying while Naruto was happy that his nii-chan thought that way.

"Anyways, I will be showing you, three different stances used in a fight to defend through Naruto while Sasuke will be attacking him." Akira said while Naruto was confused.

"Umm.. Akira-nii..sensei, how will you show through me? I don't know these stances." Naruto voiced out. Sasuke looked intrigued as well since he wanted to know how he was going to do that.

"Simple! Like this!" Chakra threads attached to Naruto making him move according to Akira's will.

All the students were surprised but the most surprised was Iruka.

'He knows puppet arts? It seems he has more skills in him than we thought.'

Meanwhile there were many ninjas from Anbu as well as clans hidden watching the new anomaly of the village.

They had shocked expression as well but didn't do anything as they wanted to see what he would show.

'Why are there so many people watching over me? Does the Hokage still not trust me?' Akira thought as he sensed many chakra signatures spying at him.

'Hmmm... maybe using chakra threads to control Naruto was going overboard...'

Akira had no idea that he was freaking the whole ninja community.

"Akira-sensei! How are you controlling me?" Naruto questioned.

"Don't worry! It's due to my chakra threads. So let's begin the spar. And everyone make sure to remember the stances! Naruto especially you! Remember the feeling you get."

Sasuke knew this was going to be an important lesson so he used his Sharingan showing his brilliance to everyone. The Sharingan had one tomoe each in his eyes signifying that it was just a level one Sharingan.

Everyone gasped at the revelation while Naruto had no idea what is was and Akira was confused how Sasuke awakened his Sharingan so early.

Sasuke couldn't help but feel prideful looking at the all the shocked expression, "There's no need to be shocked. You all must have experienced the effectiveness of the breathing exercises, right? Well, it seems to have awakened my Sharingan as well."

Hiruzen too was watching at the scene with shocked expression from his crystal ball he used to check on the village.

'This is much more than I expected! I am looking forward to what Akira-kun will be able to teach.'

"Anyway, lets start the spar. Sasuke, you can start your attack now."

Sasuke rushed at Naruto as he used his Interception Taijutsu Style to attack him.

Naruto got into Arrow Stepping Stance as he rushed at Sasuke with minimal effort. Sasuke saw the gap was closed with Sharingan at slow pace and immediately launched a kick at Naruto's abdomen.

Akira calmly put Naruto in Three Point Stepping Stance as the kick was made contact with him. The stance was used when making physical contact with opponent as it deflects the attack decreasing it's potency.

Seeing that his attack had been rendered useless Sasuke gave a backflip kick while moving backwards. This was his mistake as his eyes were no longer on his opponent at that moment as his face was looking at the ground while performing the attack.

Naruto's body went into the final stance, the Turning Stance as he dodged the attack by rotating his body and got into the blind spot of Sasuke.

Sasuke was subdued as his neck was poked making him collapse.

"What... happened?" Sasuke asked in confusion. In just mere moments he was defeated!?

"You got countered, Sasuke." Akira calmly said as he poked the same area that was poked early on enabling Sasuke to gain back control over his body.

"So what can you all tell me about what happened?" Akira asked.

Shikamaru answered in a lazy manner but he was impressed, "The first stance was used for closing in on opponent with swift moment while the second stance was used to divert the power of the attack opponent used by backing out a bit and lastly the final stance was used to get into the blind spot of the opponent as well as get them in disadvantaged position by rotating your body 45 degrees to your opponent's side."

Shikamaru had said it all and Akira smiled, "As you all have heard those stances are precisely used for that and it's main usage is in it's effective short range fighting style. The closer your opponent is to you, the more advantage you get. Moreover, this is just the training stances and not the actual combat stance."

When students heard that it was just a training stance and not a combat stance they all widened their eyes, especially Naruto as he had just experienced the Taijutsu's prowess.

Sasuke now desired even more to learn from the Taijutsu teacher.

Even the ones spying on Akira were speechless.

'That was just training stances!?'

They feared what a real combat stances would be like.

"Anyways without properly learning these stances, you won't be able to properly utilise the combat stance so train properly. The combat stance... I will only teach it to the first 5 students who can satisfy me with their training stances." Akira said eliciting many gasps of horror.

'That should properly motivate them.' Akira thought.

All the students looked at each others with burning competitive look, not wanting to lose out on this opportunity.

Akira's teaching skills were at masterful level due to his Instant Mastery but he had no idea what he had just done because of his simple desire to motivate the students.

All the current clan ninja spying on him had one thought.

'We must get that stance!!!'

There was going to be a lot of rivalry among the clans because of this while the perpetrator was clueless.

Hiruzen looked at the scene and face palmed, 'The paperwork... it's going to be even more now...'

Hiruzen that night cried while many children in the village were scared to sleep because of the scary howling voice which was the sound of their Hokage crying.

At this time around Naruto was busily training to improve himself so he could impress his nii-chan. He actually didn't care about combat stances or what not but he didn't want to disappoint his new brotherly figure as well as his new sister as well.

Sasuke furiously trained remembering each stances he saw with his Sharingan. The Sharingan gave him perfect memory recall letting him remember the stance that was used.

He could feel it. The power of these stances. And it was just for training purposes!

'I need those combat stances. After that Itachi will die by my hands!' Sasuke trained under the moonlight, his Sharingan blazing with determination.

'Teaching is actually quite fun. From tomorrow I should focus on training their bodies.' Akira thought as all the students of his class got shiver of fear.

They were going to experience hell from tomorrow as Akira was going to grind their body till it's broken and mend it to be better than it was before.

Akira looked at the collapsed form of Karin. 'Did I train her that hard?'

He had no idea that the training he had given to Karin was hell to her. But being a master at art of teaching was making hell for students after all. How else could they improve?
