61. Red spot!!

Believing that it was something made by Tsunade, Sakura never questioned it. How could she know better than a legendary figure? The pioneer! That was her thoughts which caused her this embarrassing moment.

...

"Hmm? Good work there! I did not expect you to figure out an easier way to complete the training."

Tsunade made a comment as she spotted Reko sticking against the ceiling as he stuck a thick book on his palm instead of a leaf.

This was a meticulous way of thinking. Reko had managed to find a shortcut for the training, making it easy for even amateurs to train.

She had never put much thought into it as the training was created by her when she was already very capable with chakra control and Shizune never complained about the hardships either.

"See? I always told you to teach more students."

Shizune smiled happily as she saw Reko changing the training methods successfully. He made Shizune prove her point about the benefits of teaching students to Tsunade.

Shizune had been convincing Tsunade for a very long time to take in official students and teach them but the princess was unwilling to do so.

"Well, this would help Sakura for sure."

Tsunade agreed with Shizune, the training method had indeed been made easy by Reko. A hardworking student like Sakura who was willing to injure her face for progress would indeed be helped by this.

She glanced at her pink haired student's forehead with a knowing glance.

As Sakura heard Tsunade, her cheeks reddened, embarrassed at being caught. Although, it did not stop her from going forward to use a table to use in place of leaf as she began the second step of training.

The table was heavy, around 30 kilograms. But with Sakura's strength, she was able to carry it as she stood against the ceiling.

She held out her hands and used it to stick against the table. Once she got familiar, she would lower the weight and obviously it did not take long.

In around ten minutes, Sakura had shifted from table of almost thirty kilograms to a chair of around twelve kilograms.

"Guess, I won't be able to use them as my personal assistant to fetch me items for a while."

Seeing the progress, Tsunade couldn't help but lament that she would have no one to order around today. Both Reko and Sakura were busy with second step of training and were unlikely to complete it today.

Shizune heard Tsunade's mumblings but did not say much and only smiled helplessly.

"Shadow clone jutsu!!"

Poof!!

Just when she thought there would be no help, Reko summoned a shadow clone in front of her.

'Shadow clone? I remember Tsume mentioned that she taught him the jutsu.'

In one of the reports, Tsume mentioned that Reko had requested to learn Shadow clone jutsu from her and she taught it to him.

'But he is using this in training? Well, the effectiveness is increased with this and the when he dispels the clone, the memories would transfer to him.'

The other shadow clone had picked up a book of similar weight to Reko and continued with the training like the real Reko.

Tsunade realised that the training would be effective as the memories transfer from clone to real body.

'But he seems to be adapting well to the training? Why make shadow clone?'

But there was no need for Reko to make a shadow clone. He was adapting well to the training and Tsunade predicted that in a few hours he would be able to accomplish it.

'He plans to push himself further...'

Tsunade realised that Reko was not looking for quicker results. Instead, he made the clone use his other hand to continue with the training.

Reko was making the clone do it because he wanted to further advance his chakra control not because he only wanted to reach the goal.

'Good. I can train with my dominant hand while clone trains the other one.'

Even though Reko had three clones doing the work back at home, he still decided to make one and use it to push his chakra control limits.

And what better way to do it other than using his non dominant hand?

While training for Rasengan, Reko realised that his dominant hand being right, the control in his left hand was way weaker than the right.

Now that he had the chance to train, he decided to make his shadow clone train with it.

While Sakura was sticking a chair, Reko and the clone were using a book of almost two kilograms.

'I might be able to....'

'Leave it. That would seem unfair.'

Tsunade wanted to push Reko further and make him create another shadow clone for other tasks but she decided against it.

One thing was that she was not yet familiar with Reko's limits. Other was that it would be unfair to Reko if his shadow clone is made to do menial tasks when he could train with it instead.

"I am hoping you have remembered the content of the book, because right now, I am going to operate with that knowledge while you watch."

Tsunade announced, her plan for today was to do operations once again as she explained it to both of them.

A few minutes passed, Reko, and Sakura followed Tsunade to the treatment room, watching the treatment while standing upside down from the ceiling.

"This vein here connects with...."

And so, Tsunade began to explain....

One hour passed,

The explanation continued. Reko's weight decreased to 1kg, his body adapting to this level of chakra control.

Sakura on the other hand also excelled, already lowering the item's weight to five kilograms.

Two hours passed,

Reko and the clone were already down to hundred grams, really close to the level of being able to sticking a leaf.

Sakura, though tired, also went down to three kilograms.

Tsunade's explanation continued, the second patient arrived, and the treatment began.

Three hours passed,

It was third patient already. Reko was finally able to stick against the ceiling while sticking a leaf without damaging the leaf.

Although, the concentration needed to do so was tiresome.

Sakura, tired and exhausted, out of chakra, sat close by, unable to train extensively like Reko. Though, she had already managed to stick a hundred grams book without damaging it.

"Done with the third and final operation of the day!"

Tsunade announced happily, the complicated operations were successfully completed and she didn't need to work any more in the hospital.
