Chapter 56: This Genius Isn't Very Smart

As to whether the finite illusion of the Infinite Tsukuyomi and the illusion level Error of Kotoamatsukami can affect the eighth gate, it is impossible to determine.

After all, the original is not reflected in any way.

Yeruashi could not tell.

Yeruashi is quite satisfied with being immune to all other Genjutsu, he will never allow Infinite Tsukuyomi to happen and will not give Kotoamatsukami a chance to affect him.

These are the reasons why he endures all hardships and continues to practice Hachimon Tonko.

775, 776, 777 ....

As the number of push-ups continued, Yeruashi's breathing became heavier and heavier, sweat dripping onto the floor. Finally, on repetition seven hundred and seventy-seven, his arms went slack and his body dropped to the floor.

After catching his breath, Yeruashi slowly stood up and sat down.

"Unfortunately, I can't eliminate my fatigue with the reverse flow of time."

Yeruashi shook his head.

The reverse flow of time returns the body to the previous state, and using it to eliminate fatigue is equivalent to zeroing out the training results.

After a few minutes of rest, Yeruashi looked at the floor, which was damp with sweat, and smiled, "Come on, I'd better get out."

Exercising inside the tent made the tent smell bad, so it had to be aired out.

As Yeruashi came out of the tent, he put his hands behind his head and started the squat exercise.

Push-ups, squats and sit-ups are the three most basic exercises for the whole body, as well as the most effective workout for weakening the inner gates.

221, 222, 223...

He kept mentally counting the repetitions.

The exercise outside the tent also caught the attention of some ninjas.

"Hey, what's this guy doing?"

Someone noticed Yeruashi's movement and turned to a friend with whom they were moving some things together.

Morino Ibime was carrying a box, followed by the sight of a friend and noticed Yeruashi doing squats.

"That guy....is he doing physical exercises?

The corner of Ibime's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but say, "To put it mildly, this guy looks...isn't he very smart? Is he really a genius that Lord Orochimaru accepted as a disciple?"

This is the frontier!

There could be a battle at any moment!

Seeing Yeruashi doing heavy physical exercises instead of resting in this situation, Ibime still wanted to say that the boy "has something wrong with his head", but he still restrained himself and called him "not very smart".

After all, Yeruashi is Orochimaru's disciple.

"Who knows?"

The second ninja shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Maybe this is his usual training principle."

Ibime felt a headache.

If an unexpected attack happens, they might have to protect Yeruashi, unable to fight normally, why even include such a young and inexperienced ninja in an advanced tactical squad!!!!

If they were still in the village, Ibime would most likely have gone to Orochimaru, but now they had reached the front line, and he can't send Yeruashi to the village.

"Forget it, leave him alone."

Ibime shook his head and entered the tent.

Yeruashi is a student of Lord Orochimaru, if his behavior seems too stupid and even leads to potential trouble, this is not something they can interfere with, his Sensei must be responsible for it.

After a while.

Yeruashi did sit-ups from the squat exercise and then repeated push-ups.

He completely ignored the strange looks shown by some ninjas, because he felt a burning sensation in his body and clearly felt that the shackles of the fourth gate were loosening.

In such a situation, even if the muscles of the body begin to ache and each movement becomes more painful than the previous one, Yeruashi still gritted his teeth and continued to train.

The fourth door is close!

One more small step and it will open!

Yeruashi's training was not only noticed by other ninja, but even Orochimaru noticed it too. He walked out of the Central tent and looked at his student in training, feeling some doubts in his heart.

".... did you decide to take some basic physical exercise time?"

Orochimaru is much more familiar with Yeruashi's personality than Ibime and the other ninjas present, in his opinion, this guy shouldn't do such stupid and pointless things.

Orochimaru has long noticed that on the way from Konoha to the border, Yeruashi always used weights and spent time training during each stop, but he didn't interfere with this.

Yeruashi never relaxed and spent time practicing at every moment, Orochimaru considered this behavior of the student to be correct.

But now the situation is different.

This is the border of the Fire Country and a battle can happen at any time, given Yeruashi's intelligence, he is definitely aware of this.

But knowing this, Yeruashi still chose to exercise. Then there should only be one possibility, he must be on the verge of a breakthrough in practicing some of his techniques.

"Basic physical training... is it Hachimon Tonko?"

Orochimaru thought and shook his head, deciding not to interrupt Yeruashi's practice.

Right now, the possibility of a sudden battle occurring is extremely low. If there really is a great possibility of significantly increasing strength, then it is worth taking that risk in an attempt to make a breakthrough.

According to Orochimaru's rough estimate, Yeruashi has probably already reached the level of Jounin, if he still achieves this breakthrough, it is possible that in the open door state, he can compare it to an elite Jounin.

Although this state will not last long and there will be a significant side effect, the combat power of an Elite Jounin can play an important role in any battle.

Orochimaru returned to the tent.

Although many ninja were outraged by Yeruashi's behavior, but since Orochimaru did not intervene and did not give any instructions, they had no reason to stop Yeruashi, so they could only grumble a few words.

Initially, they thought that since Yeruashi was a Chuunin, he should be more reliable than Might Duy, but now it seems that he is not completely reliable either.

664, 665...

Yeruashi put his hands behind his head, counting in his heart the number of repetitions.

Sweat dripped profusely on the floor, his stomach felt a strong burning sensation, abdominal muscles were close to the limit, but Yeruashi gritted his teeth and continued to understand persisting.

At the same time, chakra flowed rapidly through his tenketsu, repeatedly converging on the location of the fourth gate of the Hachimon Tonko, each time Yeruashi felt a burning and tingling sensation in this area.

Finally.

After another lift, he felt a change at the fourth gate.

The weak barrier he had felt before had finally collapsed!

Yeruashi is now familiar with the detailed feeling.

This feeling means going through the next gate... he finally went through the fourth gate, the Gate of Pain!
