Tsunade Can Hear My Inner Voice

Tenten declared proudly.

"The one who’s mastered Leaf-style taijutsu best is my teacher, Maito Gai. He’s Konoha’s only taijutsu-focused jōnin, and his strength is considered the greatest in Konoha by Hikari-senpai. But don’t go spreading that around, or people might laugh."

"The taijutsu adapted by Hikari-senpai is based on utilizing chakra’s unique properties to develop body protection and enhance the power of physical attacks."

"Right now, I’m going to teach you the first stage of training—stimulating your body’s instinctive self-defense response, and using that to improve your chakra control."

"So, how exactly do we train?"

"Simple—horse stance and punching. Follow me!"

Rather than explaining directly, Tenten decided to demonstrate through action.
