Chapter 8

"Do you want to fight again?"

Kazuki appeared behind Sasuke without warning, holding a knife in his hand but not on Sasuke's neck.

Sasuke was still scared to the point of breaking into a cold sweat.

If Kazuki had wanted to kill him just now, he would probably have been beheaded!

"You haven't used your full strength before?" Sasuke said gloomily.

Ever since he learned swordsmanship from Kazuki, he could fight with him for more than a hundred rounds every time! This was the second time Sasuke lost to Kazuki within ten rounds!

"Your strength is too weak. If I don't give you some slack, how can I hone my swordsmanship?"

"You!" Sasuke gritted his teeth, his face full of anger. "You bastard, you actually used me to hone your swordsmanship!"

Kazuki spread his hands and said helplessly, "I can't help it, who made you so weak? I'm about to learn new swordsmanship, and by then I'm afraid you will be pulled further away by me!"

"What swordsmanship?" Sasuke asked subconsciously.

"The Three-Day Moon Dance is the secret of our Gekko Clan."

"The secret that is not passed on?"

Sasuke muttered for a moment and said, "Teach me!"

"Hey, I've already told you it's a secret, how can I teach you?"

"I can exchange the Phoenix Fire Technique and the Dragon Fire Technique with you!"

After Sasuke woke up, a ninja told him that he was arranged to live inside the village. So even if he was the only one left in the entire Uchiha clan, the Uchiha legacy was not his. The only two wealth he had now were the two ninjutsu that Uchiha Itachi had given him but he had not yet learned.

"No, our clan leader specifically told me not to teach this sword technique to others, and this is an A-level sword technique, which can kill a jonin if you learn it! If you exchange two C-level ninjutsu with me, won't I lose a lot of money?" The implication was - you have to pay more!

But Sasuke really didn't have much capital, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't come up with anything else to exchange with Kazuki. But the words that could defeat a jonin really made him salivate; after all, his enemy's brother was just a jonin before he betrayed the village!

"If I can come up with something of the same level as your swordsmanship, would you be willing to exchange with me?"

"Forehead...this...I can think about it. After all, my clan leader only told me not to teach others, but he didn't say that I can't drop a scroll for others to pick up and learn on their own."

"..."

"I'll come to see you again in three days!"

Sasuke turned and left, while Kazuki looked at Sasuke's back thoughtfully. Can he really find more bargaining chips?

In fact, Kazuki just wanted to lure Sasuke to bargain or owe him a favor. Unexpectedly, Sasuke was so straightforward. He couldn't afford the "eyebrow pencil". He didn't think that Kazuki's price was too high, but he thought that he was not working hard enough!

If all consumers were like Sasuke, how could the business lose money?

Sasuke didn't look for him again for the next three days, but Kazuki could still see Sasuke because he had to go to school every day. He looked at Sasuke staring with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, and coming to school with a dusty face. He thought Sasuke had joined a mining company and went to work.

But three days later he found out that Sasuke really went to mine!

Sasuke did not inherit the legacy of the Uchiha clan, but Sasuke could still go back to the Uchiha clan land. He went back to the clan land to search for treasures in the ruins for these three days.

Uchiha's library, the study rooms, and even the rooms of the elders of the clan, Sasuke specifically looked for treasures in these places. However, these places were either in a mess or empty, without a trace of wealth left, let alone ninjutsu secrets!

In desperation, Sasuke could only look for some possible secret rooms, or dig up some collapsed ruins, searching everywhere.

At first, Sasuke didn't have much hope. After all, the cleanup work of Konoha Anbu was done too well, and not a penny was left for others. But it seemed that he was lucky. When Sasuke was cleaning up the ruins of a certain jonin, he found several scrolls in it.

Two of them were destroyed, but the other three were intact.

The three intact scrolls were - Uchiha Style Sword Art, Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique, and the Complete Guide to Basic Ninja Training.

Among them, Uchiha Style Sword Art records three sword moves: Uchiha Style: Sword Leap Flame, Uchiha Style: Sun Halo Dance, and Uchiha Style: Wind Sword!

Each of the three sword moves is extremely powerful. It is on par with the Crescent Moon Dance but at the same level. If you learn well, you are fully capable of killing a jonin!

So after getting these, Sasuke actually thought about not exchanging with Kazuki. After all, he is not short of the means to kill a jonin now. But he thought of Kazuki's strength. If he wants to defeat the opponent, he must know himself and the enemy! So he has to learn the Moon Dance! But he will not exchange all the ninjutsu he has obtained, just like Kazuki said. The value is not equal, and he suffers! And he also wants to keep more trump cards, so that he can defeat Kazuki! Otherwise, if Kazuki can do what he knows, won't he never be able to defeat the opponent?

"This is Uchiha Style: Sword Leap Flame. Can I change it with these two C-level ninjutsu?"

Sasuke handed the three scrolls to Kazuki and asked.

"Sword Leaping Flame?"

Kazuki was a little surprised that Sasuke could actually take out this thing. Did he go to dig up Shisui's grave? Uh...It seems that Shisui has no grave...

Kazuki opened the scroll and took a look. After discovering that it was the real thing, he gave the Moon Dance to Sasuke. From a certain perspective, Sword Leap Flame is only a B-level swordsmanship, but its power is no less than that of A-level ninjutsu, and it is also a swordsmanship that can defeat a jonin!

Adding two C-level ninjutsu, he can barely exchange for his Moon Dance.

However, the swordsmanship is good, but he can't learn it. Instead of spending all your time learning advanced ninjutsu, it is better to wait for Sasuke to learn it and give you a hundredfold feedback!

Becoming stronger by lying down, isn't that great?

After getting the Crescent Moon Dance, Sasuke left with a proud look on his face. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Kazuki felt that Sasuke seemed a little bit arrogant.

"It seems that Sasuke's gains this time should not be just this sword technique."

Kazuki laughed, "But no matter how you hide, you will never think that everything you learn will become mine, and will be fed back to me a hundred times! Hehehehe!"

Kazuki could already imagine that after Sasuke learned many ninjutsu such as Sword Leap Flame, he would be easily defeated by him and look confused.
