Chapter 241: It's a Test

Although he said so, anyone with a little combat experience could see that Danzo wanted to kill Luo Yi.

It is easy to understand that, in the entire ninja world, perhaps only Danzo himself and Orochimaru know about Kabuto's history, which involves the dirty crime of "Root" designing to murder the director of Konoha Orphanage, Yakushi Nono.

Even if Hiruzen turned a blind eye to the past Wood Release human experiments, after all, the subjects at the time were ostensibly adult volunteers; this case involved a large number of orphans and children, and was a fatal scandal for the Acting Hokage who took office on his first day.

In the name of testing, let’s “accidentally kill” Luo Yi.

This is such a ridiculously simple consideration, and just based on this alone he is not qualified to be the Hokage.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Jade"

"Puff puff--"

A very lethal offensive ninjutsu, when exhaling, the chakra accumulated in the mouth is shot out like bullets. It can also fire continuously like a machine gun, which is very effective against targets suspended in the air without hard cover.

Unfortunately, Luo Yi must be excluded first.

"Wind Style: Bound Paint"

All you need to do is create a true vacuum zone in front of you that is slightly larger than a person, and no tangible wind escape will be able to cross it.

"Sir, you don't have to show mercy." Luo Yi floated in the air, his hands on his chest, smiling seemingly gently.

The ordinary ninja who noticed the unusual movement said: He is mocking the Acting Hokage, right? He didn't even say the full title of "Acting Hokage".

Naruto noticed the unusual movement: Huh? Did Danzo really hold back? Could he not be as bad as I thought?

"Hmph... just a test." Danzo was indeed a seasoned veteran and took a deep breath without changing his expression.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Great Ball"

"boom--"

This time it was a further condensed high-pressure wind ball, or to use another weapon analogy, a cannon. The air was visibly agitated, with two circles of ripples heading straight into the sky.

Just to increase the power? Boring...

Similarly, you can easily counter it by creating a slightly larger true vacuum zone without even moving your hands.

At the same time as the Vacuum Ball disappeared, Luo Yi noticed that two shurikens wrapped in wind escape drew two exaggerated arcs to the left and right, and launched a pursuit.

"Quite smart."

"Seeking the Way Jade"

Although he used the shield of the Truth-Seeking Jade for defense, his usage was rather tricky, as he blocked the shuriken by making the outer haori appear to be fluttering in the wind; as for the wind blades on the shuriken, they were dissipated when passing through the vacuum area.

So from the outside it seems that Luo Yi is still indifferent, as if neither wind-style ninjutsu nor ninja tools can force him to defend himself.

What's up with pretending to be a bit cool?

"Is this possible? Danzo-sama's Wind Style can effectively damage the First Hokage's Wood Style, but he can just ignore it." An Anbu who originated from the "Root" couldn't help but sigh.

"Is it some secret technique that has not yet been made public? That's right, the Hyuga clan is very good at "Absolute Defense"..." Someone contacted his identity.

It is reasonable for the young son-in-law of the Hyuga family to inherit the secret art of self-defense.

"No." Danzo was immediately dissatisfied when he heard his subordinates whispering, but he still knew how to analyze the opponent's information, "The "rejection distance" of wind escape and shuriken is different. They are at least two defensive ninjutsu."

If the vacuum jade was too small to be seen, the large vacuum jade obviously disappeared more than two meters away from Luo Yi, and the shuriken was almost close to his body...it was even blocked only when it was close to his body.

The question is, how?

Seeing Danzo's expression, Luo Yi knew that he was still suspicious. He secretly felt that at least in terms of combat skills, this acting Hokage was still acceptable, but...

"A bit weak." After all, he is an old man in his seventies who is about the same age as the Third Hokage, and we can't ask too much of him.

However, when these words accidentally reached the ears of people with excellent hearing, as well as Hiruzen and Danzo who were not yet hard of hearing, the meaning was completely different.

"How arrogant." If he wasn't taught a lesson, the villagers would misunderstand who was taking the test on whom.

"Wind Release·Vacuum Wave"

First of all, we need to confirm the characteristics and weaknesses of the defense. Danzo shook his head violently, drawing a sharp breath like a sickle, which has the effect of physical cutting while also having the effect of cutting off chakra.

only…

In the face of a physical vacuum, it could only cut through the outer side of the Yin Dun that was used to maintain the vacuum area, and then most of the wind blade disappeared in the middle, with the parts at both ends no longer within the defense range and moving away unhindered.

"The defensive distance of Wind Style is between two and three meters, which is indeed much farther than Shuriken; the range may be a fan-shaped surface or an entire sphere, which is really amazing..." The Anbu people were also working hard to collect information.

So what about the endurance? To maintain this kind of barrier-like defense, the consumption and burden must be considerable.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Wave"

Danzo swung his neck wildly at a frequency and angle without worrying about spraining his neck, drawing out powerful wind blades.

Hiruzen covered his face in pain, unable to bear to look directly at it. He began to doubt whether his decision two days ago to recommend Danzo as the acting Hokage was problematic.

This Luo Yi is poisonous. He rejected Kakashi who was deliberately sent out by him to test the waters, and chose Danzo as the second best option. On the first day of taking over, he went to his house and slapped him in the face, and even hung him in the sky to slap him in the face for the whole village to see.

As expected, some of the villagers who were watching had already started whispering, and they heard that the Acting Hokage wanted to test the new guards, but he couldn't even force the applicants to perform any defensive moves.

The members of the ninja village have an unspoken consensus that the "shadow" must be and can only be the strongest ninja in the village. Now you, the acting "strongest", are shaking your head like a circus performer. Does their Konoha Village still have a future?

As the wind escape technique was "blown" down, Luo Yi didn't see much consumption, but instead consumed a lot of his own chakra.

More importantly, if we continue like this, we won't be able to convince the crowd, and we can't expose the Sharingan and Wood Release on our left arm. The best way is to get him down, drag him into close combat, and resolve the issue with sealing techniques.

So, "Well, you have passed the long-range defense test as a guard. Next, we will test the close combat defense. You can come down now."

"Mouth-to-mouth command technique of the Hokage (proxy)"

"Wow... Giving orders when you can't win, what a shameless acting Hokage..." An unknown kid made a sharp comment.

"Ah? Oh! Okay, okay." Luo Yi then remembered that he came to cause trouble under the pretext of applying for a job. When you are under someone's roof, you still have to bow your head when you should, so he slowly landed on the ground.

As a result, the 73-year-old Lao Deng did not abide by the ethics of martial arts. He drew out his kunai and launched a surprise attack the moment he landed.

"Wind Style: Vacuum Blade"

Let me try your wind defense, is it a shell or a whole spherical space?

The kunai is attached with a sharp wind blade, and if it is intentionally controlled, the blade length can exceed one meter. Based on this alone, Danzo's wind escape ability is probably far superior to Asuma, although it is meaningless to Luo Yi.

"Do you really want to come close to me? You might die." Without moving, he just gave a friendly reminder (warning).

Danzo, who had been on guard, jumped up when the distance was just over three meters, flipped through a semicircular arc, and threw a kunai with wind blades attached from behind before landing.

What a nimble old man!

However, Luo Yi, who had anticipated this, didn't even turn around.

"Wind Style: Bound to the Edge" + "Seeking the Way Jade"

He took the new attack in the same way, then simply turned his head and looked back, "How is my close combat defense, Your Excellency?"

"You!" Danzo's mentality changed a little. This kid is so hateful.

However, he observed the wind blade's reaction closely and finally found a clue: the wind blade would be unable to maintain its shape after touching the so-called defensive sphere, and would spread and disappear. So in principle, as long as the amount of "wind" exceeds the amount it can absorb...

So Danzo stepped back several steps, formed a seal and slapped the ground.

"Psychic Art: Nightmare Tapir"

Wow, an angry elephant-trunk pig, with steam coming out of its nose like a chimney; its body looks like a giant reddish-brown rat, and I remember its ability is also wind escape. I guess it is preparing to break the defense by inflicting damage.

"No creativity, very boring, and have you forgotten?" Luo Yi walked towards Meng Mo boldly, "I... am better at fire escape."

You sent me a big blower because you think I don’t have enough firepower.

The nightmare tapir's eyes suddenly became much clearer.

"Hehe...Are you scared? It's too late. I'll try out my new ninjutsu on you."

"Earth Style: Naraku" + "Fire Style: Stardust" = "Melting Style: Inferno"
