Konoha-style was a complete Taijutsu style, encompassing both punching and kicking—but it remained fundamentally basic.
Its name was similar to Konoha-ryu Kenjutsu, the swordsmanship used by Gekkō Hayate, whom Kitazawa had encountered before. However, that sword-based style was far more advanced and lethal.
Unlike Kenjutsu, Konoha-ryu Taijutsu lacked any named secret Jut...

While medical ninjutsu was fast and convenient, it still required a deep understanding of human anatomy to be truly effective. Beyond healing, a medical ninja also dealt with toxins and antidotes, demanding familiarity with nearly every medicinal herb found across the ninja world. 2025-07-24 18:41:10 +0000 UTC View Post
Kitazawa glanced at Kurenai, who seemed momentarily stunned. As the Rasengan in his hand dissolved, he reached out and gently pinched her soft cheek.
"When did you learn that?" she asked, snapping back to her senses.
"Yesterday," he replied after a short pause.
Technically, he wasn’t lying—it had only taken him two days to master the Rasengan.
