The Next Day
Taijutsu Sparring Circle, Konohagakure Ninja Academy
Naruto dodged out of the way of the incoming fist, diving in close to his opponent and driving an elbow right into Shino's solar plexus, making him fall back with a grunt and wheeze.
"Damn Shino. You're tough." The blond boy said appraisingly.
"Thank you, Uzumaki-san." The Aburame Heir said in a monotone, "You are stronger than you appear to be. I shall have to try harder."
"Bring it!" Naruto grinned. Shino was a nice guy, totally non-judgemental and calm. He could use some help in modulating his voice though.
This was the first time Naruto had faced against Shino and his family's Kamakiri-Style (Praying Mantis) taijutsu. As Aburame were primarily mid-range combatants, it was a defensive style that relied on precision strikes and exploiting the weakness in the enemy's style to land blows at critical junctures in combat. It was different from both the Hakage-style and whatever style Sasuke-teme used, as both of those were either neutral or offensive styles.
