Time flew by and without them noticing, almost two weeks had passed since Sanada began his little training camp.

During these two weeks, the four Genin were able to somehow learn the basics of total concentration breathing, with Sasuke having the most progress among them.

Sasuke had used his Sharingan to mimic Sanada's breathing and that helped him save a lot of time. Sharingan was definitely a cheat, and Sanada could only acknowledge how useful it was.

Currently, Sasuke and Sanada were both on the training ground, standing across each other with their blades unsheathed.

After two weeks of training, it was time for Sanada to check the progress of his four disciples.

"Come on, Sasuke: if your performance is unsatisfactory this time, then I will draw a dick on your bald head for the Chunin exam!" Said Sanada with a smile.

Had it been anyone else, Sasuke might have thought that the other party was just joking and was doing it to increase the motivation of their disciples.

However, after a few weeks of getting along, Sasuke knew that Sanada wasn't kidding.

This temporary teacher of his was definitely a psycho, and he meant it.

Sasuke shuddered at the thought of battling Gaara with a dick drawn on his bald head, but he quickly readjusted his thought.

'No.. I must focus. If I perform well, then he has no excuse to do that to me!'

Sasuke then proceeded to close his eyes to calm his mind, and once he opened his eyes again, all the uncanny thoughts had been thrown.

"I'm ready, Sensei!" Said Sasuke as he was now in the total concentration breathing form.

Unknowingly to him, Sanada's mouth turned into an arc as he saw how Sasuke behaved.

'Not bad, edgy brat... It seems like two weeks of training has made you a lot sharper!'

Sanada also entered his total concentration breathing mode.

Two people in total concentration breathing mode were now ready to confront each other.

"I'll start!"

Sanada waved his wooden sword covered with water attribute chakra at Sasuke.

It was just a simple slash, but when done by Sanada, it had created a big water blade.

"As expected of Sanada-Sensei. Just a simple slash could exhibit such power.." Sasuke exclaimed.

"But I'm not the old me! Hinokami Kagura: Enbu!!!" (Editor note: Sun Breathing: Dance)

WHOOOSH!!

Sasuke controlled his fire attribute chakra to envelope the Yubashiri in his hand and slashed upwards.

The water blade clashed with Sasuke's fire blade, and Sasuke's progress was fully displayed here.

The water blade was split into two halves in an instant. The huge amount of water splashed down and sprinkled the ground around Sasuke.

However, Sasuke was not done yet. The moment he cut down the water blade he prepared to use his next move.

Sasuke dashed toward Sanada with his Yubashiri that was blazing with flames. All the grass and roots in his surrounding had been burned away by the heat the sword radiated.

It was clear that Sanada was releasing the water during their confrontation, but it was no less impressive for Sasuke.

Sanada, who had been able to combine the principle of water breathing, chakra, and Fish-Man Karate was now standing on the brink of early Kage level. Meanwhile, Sasuke was clashing with him head-on without any fear.

Every swing of Sasuke's sword was filled with power and this made Sanada's heart tremble a little.

In the case of a battle like this where both parties used total concentration breathing, one small mistake would be very dangerous.

The body of Sasuke's Yubashiri now became redder than ever as Sasuke was ready to unleash a big move.

"Hinokami Kagura: Burning Bones, Summer Sun" (Editor note: Hinokami Kagura: Shakkotsu En'yō)

The scorching heat that enveloped Sasuke's sword strengthened as he unleashed a large circular slash at Sanada. Sanada felt his senses warning him that he should dodge this attack.

'Damn you, Sasuke.. Using such a big move in a spar... It seems that my previous teaching wasn't enough for you. huh?'

In this short moment, Sanada stopped holding back. His eyes were focused as he deciphered the weaknesses in Sasuke's movement.

The sword was about to hit Sanada's body, but by then, Sanada had finished deciphering Sasuke's weak spot.

'There!'

With a swift movement, Sanada avoided the incoming blade strike as he grabbed Sasuke's hand and pulled him down to the ground.

BAMM!!!

The attack failed and Sasuke was thoroughly defeated by Sanada.

However, Sasuke's display of power just now was enough for Sanada to recognize him.

With his current pace, it would be safe to say that in the upcoming two weeks, Sasuke will be a lot stronger than his original counterpart that was trained by Kakashi for the Chunin Exam.

Chidori was good and all, but the consumption was just too great. Compared to Hinokami Kagura and Total Concentration Breathing, the efficiency was clearly on a whole another level.

After the battle, Sanada as usual, would be telling Sasuke about all his weaknesses and shortcomings in the battle.

Their relationship might be temporary teacher and disciple, but the current Sanada had treated Sasuke no different from his own disciples.

Even though Sanada always teased Sasuke on the outside, it was a lie if he said that he didn't put any effort to groom Sasuke.

"Well, that's enough for today! Now that training is done, how about going to Izakaya Nobu for dinner? My treat?"

"Really?? Then I want tomato spaghetti!!"

Sasuke said, no longer concerned with the battle he had lost before.

Even for an edgy brat like Sasuke, once you conquered his stomach, he was nothing more than a little tsundere.
