i) Answering questions
A) Sorry, I forgot to answer some questions last time, Dion0486. Naruto will discover chakra, but no ninjutsu or genjutsu; he will use chakra to increase his speed, strength of his crystal attacks and sword attacks, etc.; he will also come up with different ways of using his chakra in the future, but he will not be focusing on chakra a lot.
B) A reader asked that Hawkeye raised Naruto and should have told Naruto about Haki. The answer to your question is that Hawkeye focuses on training Naruto in swordsmanship more than anything else because of the talent Naruto shows in swordsmanship (he will discover Haki soon, don't worry).

Ryuji VS Jun
"CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK." Every time Ryuji's spear clashes with Jun's hammer, Ryuji ends up skidding backward a couple feet from the force behind Jun's hammer.
Ryuji kept swinging his spear with all his strength and more aggressively than before at Jun, but thanks to Jun's humanoid bear transformation that his devil fruit granted him, he still had the upper hand in their clash: "CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK.".
Kojiro was watching Ryuji's battle carefully. Yuki, who was standing next to her grandfather, asked, "Grandpa, should I help Big Brother?" Kojiro smiled and shook his head. "No, Ryuji is alright. All of you should watch Ryuji carefully. He will surprise you all soon enough." The Katagawa clan members were surprised at what Kojiro just said but nodded their heads along with Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin.
Ryuji skidded backward again, but this time he stabbed his spear on the ground to reduce his backward momentum, and then he looked at Jun when he stopped skidding backward with a small smile. "Will, it seems like it is time for me to get serious." Jun scoffed at him when he heard this, and he said to Ryuji, "What are you talking about, Brat? You are no match for me. I ate a devil fruit, the bear bear fruit model black bear. You will die here today." Ryuji didn't say anything; he just smiled and removed his hands from the spear shaft, then he removed the top half of his kimono, revealing his torso.
He clenched his two hands into fists and yelled loudly , "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH." Ryuji's muscles tripled in size. Jun, the Katagawa clan members, Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin, were shocked; their eyes almost bulged out when they saw Ryuji's new look, except for Kojiro, who was smiling proudly at Ryuji.
After Yuki saw Ryuji's new form, she asked Kojiro, while in shock, "Grandpa, what's going on with Big Brother?" Kojiro just smiled and said, "Just observe and see; the real battle is just starting now.".
Ryuji picked up his heavy spear with his right hand and said to Jun, "Now let's see if you can really keep up with my strength. My advice to you is to not blink." Jun scoffed, but didn't say anything. He brought his hammer in front of him, ready to smash Ryuji's body into mince meat.
Ryuji binds his knees while holding the spear with his two hands, and he kicks the ground with his two feet. The ground beneath his feet broke, and the dust from the ground flew into the air. Ryuji appeared in front of Jun in a blink of an eye.
Jun was shocked when Ryuji appeared in front of him with such speed. Ryuji swung his spear with everything he had, "CLANK." Jun's hammer slipped from his grasp and flew away when Ryuji's spear clashed with his hammer. Jun looked at Ryuji in shock at what happened and muttered "impossible".
Ryuji got into a horse stance and said to Jun, "This is over." He held his spear in the middle of its shaft and said, "Mix Spear Style Secret Art: Black Dragon Drilling Horn." Ryuji thrust his spear with incredible speed while rotating it too fast at the same time,. Jun couldn't react in time, and Ryuji stabbed him in the heart with his spear.
After Ryuji stabbed Jun's in the heart, Jun's vomited a glob of blood and reverted back into his human form. Ryuji confirmed that Jun had died when he saw his dead eyes. He then removed his spear from Jun's corpse. After removing the spear, Jun's body fell to the ground, lifeless.

All who watched the fight were very impressed. Ryuji closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His body slowly started returning to normal.
Yuki asked Kojiro, "Grandpa, how did big brother get so muscular all of a sudden? and that spear thrust I saw just now was way too fast. He is wielding a heavy spear, and the spear he is wielding is as tall as him, and it is quite big compared to other heavy spears. I don't understand."
All the Katagawa clan members, Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin, looked at Kojiro for explanation. He just chuckled when he saw them looking at him, and he started answering Yuki's question: "Ever since Ryuji started training in the art of spear when he was 5 years old, he trained his body every day to surpass it's limit, and as a result, his body surpasses human limitation, and he also discovered a way to use the body strength that he cultivated ever since he was a kid efficiently; in fact, the method he discovered is used in the western martial art style called the Dragon Fist. The bulky muscular form that Ryuji uses is the method he discovered.
Yusuke asked, "Grandpa, can you explain how Ryuji's method works?" Kojiro kept smiling but answered, "The method is simple: it is called one with the body. When a martial artist becomes one with their body, they will have full control over every muscle in their body; they can compress, harden, and bulk their muscles whenever they want. This is the perfect method for Ryuji, who spent most of his time training his body. The stronger his body gets, the stronger he will become.".
Yuki then asked, "What about that spear thrust, grandpa?" Kojiro smiled. "There are two types of grips in the art of spear: the Tao grip and the Kao grip." The Tao grip is a rigid grip; it is mostly used when wielding a heavy spear to deliver heavy spear strikes. The Kao grip is a light grip; it is used to wield short spears and to deliver fast strikes. Ryuji was able to combine the two grips into one, creating a new grip, and you all saw the result.".
Everyone who heard what Kojiro said was shocked and amazed by what they heard when Ryuji walked to them. He smiled and said, "Sorry for taking too long to deal with that bear." Kojiro chuckled at what Ryuji said. "You did well, Ryuji." All his siblings gave him a smile, and they turned their heads to see how the other fights were going.
______
Law vs. Rock
Law continued switching places with Rock with his "Shambles" technique whenever Rock shot at him with his rifle. "BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG., BANG.".
Rock was getting irritated more and more as the fight continued. "Damn this kid, I'm going to kill him in the most painful way.".
Law started breathing hard. "I can't continue fighting like this. The "Room" consumes too much of my stamina, and the longer I keep it active, the quicker my stamina runs out. I need to take this guy out quickly, but he keeps using his devil fruit power to keep his distance from me by flying in the air in his Hawk humanoid form. The only solution I have to this problem is to try my new technique on him. I have only tried this technique on rocks and trees; I have never tried this technique on living beings. Well, it seems he will be my first human test subject for my new technique, if I can call him a human with the way he looks in this form." Law chuckled when he thought about Rock being his test subject.
Law looked at Rock, who was keeping his distance from Law by flying in the air in his Hawk humanoid form inside Law's "Room." Law smirked and said to himself, "Here goes nothing." He raised his sword above his head and vertically swinging his sword while saying loudly. "Amputate".
Rock was sliced in half after Law swung his sword. Rock was shocked; he was still alive after being cut in half vertically. Law smirked. "It worked." He then started swinging his sword again multiple times, and Rock was cut into small cubes.
After Law finished cutting Rock into small cubes, he undo his "Room" and Rock's body, which he diced, fell to the ground.

With The Katagawa Clan Members, Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin
"Law actually was able to do that technique on that Hawk guy; that is amazing," Shachi exclaimed. Bepo and Penguin nodded with a smile on their faces.
Kojiro smiled after seeing how Law took care of Rock. "He ate the Op Op devil fruit; no wonder he is called the miracle doctor here. He is also the successor of that old bastard." Kojiro then shocks his head. and chuckled, "I am obliged to help him after all that old bastard saved my life countless times.".
Law started walking towards Bepo, Shachi, Penguin, and the Katagawa clan members. The Katagawa clan members nodded to Law in respect, and his friends smiled at him. Everybody then turned their heads to see how Naruto was faring against Captain Gan.
________
Naruto VS Captain Gan
Captain Gan was swinging his huge axe at Naruto while he was in his humanoid tiger form. "CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK," Naruto parried all the axe strikes with his sword (Mangetsu) with ease without any problem while giving Captain Gan a bored look. "Come on, get serious, will you? This is really getting boring. Your axe-wielding skills are really lacking. Is that all you got?"
Captain Gan got furious at what Naruto just said to him, and he yelled at Naruto, "You bastard, I am going to dice you into small pieces with my axe, you brat." Naruto just sighed in disappointment and said to Captain Gan, "This fight is so boring, I'm going to finish it off.".
Naruto started coating his sword (Mangetsu) in visible pink energy. When Captain Gan saw Naruto coating his sword (Mangetsu) with the pink energy, he swung his axe horizontally to cut off Naruto's head. However, Naruto ducks under the axe swing and thrusts his sword (Mangetsu) at Captain Gan's chest and said, "Crystallisation Sword.".
Captain Gan started screaming loudly in agony after Naruto stabbed him in the chest, "AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHH," and his body slowly started being covered in a thick layer of pink crystal until it covered all of Captain Gan's body.
After Captain Gan's body was covered in a thick layer of crystal, Naruto then removed his sword (Mangetsu) from Captain Gan's chest. The thick layer of crystal started to crack when Naruto removed his sword (Mangetsu). The crack spread all over the crystal like a spider web. Then Captain Gan's body shattered into small pink crystal shards.
The small pink crystal shards flew in the air, Naruto just turned around and started walking towards the Katagawa clan members. Law and his friends without bothering with the crystal shards that flew in the air.

Law, Bepo, Shachi, Penguin, and all Katagawa clan members gave Naruto a very impressed look when they saw how he easily finished off Captain Gan. Yuki noticed Yusuke was smirking widely at Naruto, and she was surprised when she saw him holding his sword handle tightly. She then gave a small smile when she saw his eyes were burning with excitement and fighting spirit. It had been a long time since she saw this side of her big brother, and she thought to herself, "Interesting. I never saw my brother this excited for a long time. This blonde must be really good with the sword to excite Yusuke like that.".
Kojiro looked carefully at Naruto as he was walking towards them and thought, "His swordsmanship looked very familiar and different at the same time; when he was parrying the axe and when he stabbed that little cat in the chest, it reminded me of little Hawky sword style." Kojiro then chuckled, "I bet little Hawky trained him; I should ask him later.".
Law kept looking at Naruto and thought to himself, "Incredible; he only needed to stab the pirate once to kill him; he had an extremely powerful devil fruit; if I join his crew, I will have a big chance of taking revenge on Doflamingo.".
Ryuji smirked, "This guy is tough; he finished off the pirate captain who ate a devil fruit like he was a total weakling.".
Naruto smiled at them, and Kojiro said to Naruto with a small smile on his face, "Well done, my boy. You are quite talented with the sword; I would like to ask you who taught you swordsmanship; your style looks similar to someone I trained in the past.".
Naruto shrugged. "My adopted father, Dracule Mi Hawk, taught me the basics of swordsmanship, and then I created a style based on what he taught me." When everyone heard that Naruto was taught by Hawkeye, their eyes widened in shock, and Kojiro smirked, "So I was right; that little Hawky trained you. I taught your father swordsmanship when he was a kid. I would love it if you came with us to the clan mansion to thank you properly for helping us protect our home. and also, I would like to know from you how my student has been doing." Naruto nodded with a smile on his face and said to Kojiro, "I would love to.".
Kojiro then turned to Law and his friends, "You all can come along to the clan mansion too." Law nodded to him and said, "Thank you; we will gladly accept your invitation." Kojiro nodded with a smile on his face, then he said to everyone, "Let's go.".
Kojiro started walking back to the clan mansion, and everybody started following him back to the Katagawa clan mansion.
