It's more likely that kishi have no idea on what he write or it just exaggeration just like most ninja stuff.
1. But you still need it to do jyuken because this is not some Chinese pressure point that has similiarity with tenketsu and kishi use it at the end of manga.
2. How could Kyubi is not naruto arsenal?
Kyubi is and always be naruto arsenal.
Just because it has sentient or make naruto super strong doesn't mean it's not his own weapon.
1.) A skilled medic who learns the move set could most likely do it as well as they more than likely would have to know where the tenketsu are themselves for certain medical procedures. It still would not be as effective as a Hyuga with the Byakugan allowing them to always see the tenketsu precisely, but it could still be doable. The Taijutsu style itself was built around the Byakugan's strengths. It is not biologically inherit to the Byakugan itself, only its own built-in abilities are. As far as we know, there is no Taijutsu that is bloodline-related. Kekkei Genkai are usually some sort of special Ninjutsu-based ability unique to a bloodline, and then any Taijutsu-based fighting styles are built around that ability.
2.) So now we just ignore the fact that Kurama is his own being with his own will and his own power and see him as nothing more than just a weapon for Naruto or any other Jinchuriki to use at his convenience? That's exactly the type of thinking that made Kurama despise humanity to begin with and made him who we were introduced to. It was only when Kurama willingly worked together with Naruto that Naruto became as strong as he was, just like how it was Bee alone being able use Gyuki's power, but Gyuki allowing Bee to use his power. At best, without Kurama's cooperation, Naruto only had a very watered down version of the cloak.
I've always had issues with how weak Naruto is after training under Jiraiya for 2+ years. All he learned was how to make a bigger Rasengan, channel a couple tails worth of Kurama's chakra and summon Shadow Clones in various places (not just around him), and basic genjutsu defense. It would have been nice if Naruto had learned some actual jutsus, or even learned how to create a Rasengan using only one hand. That at least would have shown some more development in his ninja growth. The key to the Rasengan is that fact that it can be created and used in one motion, but Naruto using Shadow Clones to help limits its effectiveness. The fact that Naruto was so limited when he returned showed to me that Jiraiya wasn't a very good teacher, nor was Kakashi (as well as how badly Kishi thought things through regarding Naruto's growth as a ninja).
Yeah, as Bryon can attest to, that's another one of my biggest irks about part two and is also what makes Naruto's (handed-out) power-ups that much more ridiculously hax. Even Sasuke at least had to work his butt off to become as strong as he was when he and Team Seven first encounter each other again, and the results show just how huge a difference there was because of it where, if it had been he and Naruto facing off alone again, Naruto would have been killed pretty much instantly. And as Sasuke showed, even Kurama hax wouldn't work because he already knew how to use the Sharingan to suppress Kurama's chakra, so Naruto's big crutch is eliminated before the fight even begins.
It's also why I say that Naruto has not yet truly mastered the Rasengan - he still needs to use such shortcuts to use it. For me, it's not mastered until Naruto can use the Rasenshuriken without Kage Bunshin, Sage Mode, or Kurama chakra. Heck, the only reason the half-finished Rasenshuriken worked against Kakuzu was because of Kishi giving him the cliche "moment of stupidity" where, even though he could instantly deduce the danger of being hit by it and to avoid/disrupt it at all costs (and Naruto was fighting alone as opposed to two teams not being able to do anything previously), he still falls for such a basic trick like Henge. You'd think, with Akatsuki's whole Biju/Jinchuriki hunting goal, and with how they were watched for years, that would all be briefed on the fighting styles of each one and, obviously, Naruto's fighting habits have not deviated much, if at all, from part one.
