Chapter 192: Shikamaru, Who Became Diligent

Time reached noon.

Naruto Uzumaki finished lunch and flew toward the school's artificial lake.

Bang!

He was running very fast, his mind full of new training, completely unaware of Shikamaru Nara popping out from the corner ahead.

"Ouch!"

Shikamaru Nara had just finished training and was exhausted; he was knocked down as if he had fallen apart.

"Shikamaru? Why are Itachi here?"

Naruto Uzumaki was stunned and couldn't help but ask.

"It's Naruto."

Shikamaru Nara climbed up, rubbed his waist, and complained, "Itachi really have strength!"

"Sorry."

Naruto Uzumaki explained, "I'm busy going to the artificial lake; Teacher Kitazawa said he's going to give me a new special training."

"Oh?"

Shikamaru Nara's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is it water-walking training?"

He knew clearly which was happier: one person suffering or two people suffering.

And most importantly, with Naruto Uzumaki, he could share the firepower.

Itachi must prioritize attacking the hero with taunt.

Shikamaru Nara understood Naruto Uzumaki.

His strength is strong, but his chakra control is very average.

If they train together, Naruto Uzumaki will definitely attract more of Kitazawa's attention.

When the time comes, he can slack off a bit and suffer less torture.

"I don't know if it's water-walking training; Teacher Kitazawa didn't say."

Naruto Uzumaki scratched his head and said.

"Itachi've already reached the artificial lake, so it's mostly water-walking training."

Shikamaru Nara thought for a moment and said.
