Chapter 517: A noteworthy strong person (asking for monthly votes)

Chapter 517 A noteworthy strong person (please vote for me)

After the construction of various facilities required for the Budokai was completed, Mu Yue announced the news about Hanzo's attendance at the competition and various matters regarding the Youth Budokai competition.

Youth Martial Arts has gone through many rounds of publicity, and interested people have been waiting for specific news about the event. As soon as the news was released, people who wanted to participate in the competition or watch the competition rushed to the Land of Rain.

In Konoha, in addition to the genius Sarutobi Hiruzen who actively inquired about his intentions, there are also some young ninjas who want to participate in martial arts conferences to gain knowledge.

After all, the registration fee is only 68,900 taels, which is just a small amount of money for a ninja. Even if you don't get the ranking reward, you can still meet the legendary ninja master Sosuke.

Thinking that leading one team would lead both teams, Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned other ninjas who wanted to participate and asked Mu Yue to lead the team to the Land of Rain.

"Your ninja levels have risen so quickly, even Shisui has become a jonin." Asuma, who was still a chuunin, couldn't help but sigh.

His graduation was when Shisui entered school. As a result, Shisui had to endure him before becoming a chunin. This promotion speed was really outrageous.

“Hey, let me tell you the secret of our promotion.” Obito said with a smile.

Asuma was instantly interested, and Yuhi Kurenai and Azari also turned their ears towards Obito.

“First fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and then complete some S-level tasks.” Obito replied.

"Don't underestimate other ninjas in the ninja world. The restriction of the Youth Budokai is that those over the age of eighteen cannot participate, not twelve or eleven years old." Kakashi reminded.

Although Kakashi is not arrogant, he will not belittle himself. He has never denied that he is a genius among ninjas.

"As long as we are not unlucky enough to meet one of our own, we will definitely rank high." Obito said confidently.

 Asuma Squad:…

If they met the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and were promoted to Jonin, everyone would be gone, and now Kirigakure didn't have the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, only the Two Ninja Swordsmen.

By the time Mu Yue led the team to Liudao City, Liudao City was already very lively. There were many ninjas on the streets with different forms of forehead protection.

"A little bit, but not much." Kakashi replied, shaking his head.

Kakashi smiled and said nothing.

"But with a few of you participating, we in Konoha may take all the rewards. I don't know if the Ninja people will mind."

There are very few ninjas who can become famous in the ninja world at the age of around 18, and the last group of ninjas who became famous around the age of 18 are already over 18, such as Namikaze Minato.

 Although he had already completed his revenge in the third round of the Chunin Exams, winning again would further prove his strength.

“Ah, isn’t it Ganshihuomen? I must have remembered correctly. I remember we exchanged words during the third exam.” Metkai recalled it again and felt that he was right.

 Various missions and battlefield experiences gave Obito plenty of confidence.

 Asuma knows how perverted Obito and the others are. He has been practicing so hard, but the gap is getting bigger and bigger.

“What a strong chakra, which ninja village is this?” Kakashi, who opened the transparent world, suddenly noticed a powerful chakra.

 Even if there are only one or two teams of ninjas, it is normal for them to collide.

 “Kakashi, do you have relevant information?” Obito asked curiously.

“The secret is good, but it’s a bit useless.” Asuma couldn’t help but patted Obito on the back.

 Without the Ninja Sword, there is no way to recruit new members, so Kirigakure may only have two people for a long time, unless Kirigakure is willing to build a new Ninja Sword.

 Kirigakure has no momentum to sue for peace. Of course, it is impossible for Konoha to return the ninja swords. Even in order to prevent Kirigakure from using special means to retrieve them, several of the captured ninja swords have been sealed.

Since the distance between the Ninja sect's headquarters and Konoha is not very far, Mu Yue chose a late departure time.

 When he and Obito participated in special training together, Obito was only slightly better. By the time of the Chunin Exam, Obito could crush him.

 Other players may not be as talented as him, but they have practiced for seven more years than him, so it’s hard to say who is stronger.

“It shows that Ninja’s ability is not bad.” Kakashi commented.

Miki Kakimon once forced Kakashi and others into a desperate situation in the Death Forest session of the Chunin Examination, and he also reported his name, so Metkai remembered him.

 “There are so many people, and there are also ninjas from the enemy village.” Obito exclaimed.

 After handling the accommodation, Kakashi and others formed a team to register.

Maitkai's confident look made Kakashi feel a little unsure. Could it be that he remembered the name wrong?

"The Kirigakure are also here to participate in the competition. We will beat them again as if they were on the battlefield." Obito saw the Kirigakure ninja who had luckily defeated him once in the Chuunin Exam.

"Are you talking about the dried persimmon Kisame?" Kakashi was stunned by Metkai's "dried persimmon fire door". He recalled it carefully before remembering its real name.

The Ninja Sect did a pretty good job of guiding the registration office. Kakashi and the others were able to find the Youth Budokai registration office easily.

“It’s the Kirigakure fire gate.” Metkai saw a slightly impressed Kirigakure ninja among the crowd.

However, looking at the crowd gathered together, Kakashi felt that he could easily find it without guidance. There were too many people around here, not only the contestants who wanted to register, but also the contestants' accompanying persons.

Although Asuma has never seen Obito take action, Obito's ability to assist Kakashi in killing the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon in the battle between the Seven Ninja Swordsmen is enough to prove his strength.

 In terms of number of people, the ninjas in the ninja army are more and more spectacular than here, but the ninja army is all a forehead protector, and it is a different scenery.

“It turns out you don’t know either, so you still act like you know it.” Obito complained.

But Kakashi didn’t feel that he could kill everyone except Muyue’s disciples at the Youth Martial Arts Conference, because he was too young, only eleven years old.

However, the ninjas here all have their own purposes. Only a few idiots will look for trouble, but they are dealt with quickly by the ninjas of the ninja sect, and it seems to be quite harmonious.

This was the first time he saw so many ninjas from different ninja villages at the same time. At a glance, he saw many different forehead protectors.

He dislikes Kakashi's suit competition the most, especially in front of Nohara Lin.

Obito also knew about his age, so he didn’t talk too much. He just talked about his high ranking, and didn’t say that he would definitely be in the top two or four.

Given the current situation in the ninja world, it is not easy to make so many ninjas in the ninja village feel calm and not fight.

He just thought that since there were so many players gathered here, there might be strong opponents. Unexpectedly, when he opened the world, there were actually masters he didn't know.

Kakashi calmly changed his position and closed the transparent world, only to find that the ninja with powerful chakra did not have a forehead protector on his head.

 “Is he not wearing a forehead protector or is he a non-ninja village ninja?” Kakashi speculated in his mind.

It is not that there are no strong ninjas among non-ninja village ninjas, but they are too rare. If you add another person under the age of 18, it will be even rarer.

“Kakashi the Thunder Fang, Metkai the Green Beast, Shisui Shunshen, the geniuses of Konoha are all here.” Some ninjas noticed the arrival of Kakashi and the others.

　　Although Kakashi and the others are not yet well-known in the entire ninja world, they are still well-known in several surrounding countries.

Obito looked around for the person who was speaking. He called Kakashi but they didn't call him. They looked down on him, right?

It's a pity that there are so many ninjas here. Many ninjas are chatting and talking. Obito searched hard and couldn't find who was talking.

　　 Terumi Mei and Onito Mangetsu and the others looked back when they heard these familiar names.

“It’s really them, the competition is so stressful.” Terumi Mei frowned slightly.

Except for Obito Terumi Mei who was restrained by her and gave her a slight beating, Kakashi, Metkai, Shisui and Terumi Mei all felt that they were destined to lose.

 "Metkay." Kisame Mikigaki stared at Metkay.

The disastrous defeat Metkai gave him in the Chuunin Examination is still unforgettable.

"The group of Konoha geniuses who once defeated the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" Ghost Lantern Man Yue showed an interesting look.

He believed that if Kirigakure still had the Ninja Sword, he could directly become one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, so he regarded Obito and the others as beings of the same level.

 “It’s Maki from Sunagakure Village.”

At this time, a ninja from Xiao Ninja Village recognized Sunagakure in the newly arrived Sunagakure team.

"There are many talented ninjas from the big ninja village." There are ninjas from the small ninja village who want to quit.

Originally, I thought that during the war, there might be few people participating and I wanted to come over to pick up the slack, but after thinking about it carefully, sending a few young ninja teams would not have any impact on the situation.

Although they are not planning to participate in the competition, the ninjas who are not participating are also prepared to watch the competition before leaving.

 …

On June 25th, the Youth Martial Arts Association will begin the preliminaries.

　　Specialists are not allowed to watch the qualifying matches. For spectators, the knockout rounds after the qualifying rounds are the official start of the game.

Since the number of participating ninjas exceeded two hundred, Mu Yue divided the participating ninjas equally into eight competition areas. Each competition area has four places to enter the knockout round. The qualifiers will fight through rounds until only four players are left. Finish.

 After drawing lots, Obito and the others gathered together to communicate.

"I am the number one in the second division, what about you?" Obito raised the number in his hand and said first.

“No. 15 of the Eighth Division!” Metkai said with a smile showing his shining white teeth.

The rest of them were relieved. If they were in the same division as Metkai, it would depend a bit on luck.

"I am the number one in the first division." Kakashi then replied.

“I am number ten from the fifth division.” Zhisui said.

“I am in the fourth division, and everyone is in different divisions.” Nohara Lin said with a smile.

Given the competition system of the Youth Budokai, it is a good thing to be in different divisions. Otherwise, if they meet in the same division in the first game, one of them will not be able to advance to the knockout rounds.

However, Nohara Lin’s worries were unnecessary, because the division of competition areas was done by Mu Yue.

The existence of the qualifiers is to ensure the excitement of the knockout rounds. Mu Yue separates the stronger ninjas, so as to ensure that geniuses will not fail to enter the knockout rounds due to luck.

"Kakashi and Obito, please go to the battle venue in the second division. You are all in the first battle." Nohara Lin reminded her gently.

 The competitions in the eight divisions are held at the same time, rather than finishing in one division first and then proceeding in order.

"Well, Xiaolin, you have to work hard. When the time comes, Xiaolin, I will go over and cheer you up when you fight." Obito encouraged Nohara Lin before leaving.

"Obito, you too. Never underestimate your opponents. Even if they are ninjas who are not as powerful as you, you must go all out." Nohara Rin nodded and said seriously.

“After the battle, you can collect information about other ninjas.” With these words, Kakashi left for the battle venue in the first division.

 Since Kakashi moved quickly, Kakashi stood for a while after he arrived before the game started.

“In the first round, player No. 1 Kakashi Hatake versus player No. 2 Daisuke Ueoka.” The referee read quickly after taking a look at the list in his hand. Whoosh!

　　After Kakashi heard his name, he used the teleportation technique to reach the battlefield.

Daisuke Ueoka was dumbfounded when he heard that his opponent was Raiga Kakashi. The referee read his name for the second time before he walked to the fighting venue in a panic.

 “What a bad lottery, you actually asked me to play Thunder Fang.” Daisuke Kameoka cursed in his mind.

 “The battle begins!” the referee shouted after seeing that the players were all ready.

 Hush!

Daisuke Ueoka quickly took out the shuriken in his ninja bag and threw it at Kakashi.

Although Raiga Kakashi has the record of killing seven people with the Ninja Sword, he is already standing on the battlefield, and it is impossible for Daisuke Ueoka to admit defeat directly.

 Dangdang!

　　 Kakashi cut down all the shurikens with a flick of his white teeth, and then focused his breathing to burst out at extremely high speed.

Daisuke Ueoka only felt Kakashi suddenly accelerate, and before he could make too many moves, the White Fang short blade was pressed against his neck the next moment.

"The gap is actually so big..." Daisuke Ueoka looked at this scene with eyes wide open in disbelief.

He knew he couldn't beat Kakashi, but he didn't expect to lose just by throwing a shuriken. He originally thought it would take two or three rounds.

“Kakashi, the No. 1 flag bearer, wins.” Upon seeing this, the referee immediately announced Kakashi’s victory.

Kakashi put away his sword and walked out of the battle field. He first entered the transparent world state and took a look at the ninjas in the first competition area. After finding no ninja worth recording, he left for the second competition area.

 “Obito Uchiha No. 1 wins.”

Kakashi heard the referee's voice announcing Obito's victory as soon as he reached the second division.

Obito, who won the battle, left the battle venue happily and happened to see Kakashi walking towards him.

The smile on Obito's face instantly diminished a little. Just now he was thinking about winning the game and went to Kakashi's side to "cheer" Kakashi, but Kakashi turned out to be faster.

"I'm going to the third, sixth, and seventh divisions to have a look. Will you come with me?" Kakashi invited.

 These competition areas are all competition areas where Mu Yue's disciples are not present. Kakashi wanted to go and observe them to see if there were any noteworthy ninjas.

A competition area where there are disciples does not actually require much observation. You can get the information by communicating with each other at night.

 “No, I’m going to the fourth division.” Obito refused.

Kakashi thinks that the second division may have to observe occasionally. Obito doesn't seem to be able to collect intelligence like this.

 “That Kirigakure ninja.” When Kakashi walked to the third stage, he saw the fighting full moon.

Kakashi stopped and prepared to watch the performance of the full moon. The chakra of the full moon was not weak either.

 “Fall down!” The ninja dressed as Iwagakure brandished his long sword and stabbed the ghost lamp full moon.

On the other hand, Gui Deng Man Yue did not dodge and looked at the rushing Iwagakure with a faint smile, letting him pierce the sharp sword into his body.

 “It turned into water?” The Iwagakure ninja was shocked to find that the ghost lamp Man Yue had turned into a water man.

The Iwagakure ninja quickly drew out his sword, and the spot where Ghost Light Mangyue had just been stabbed quickly recovered, as if nothing had happened.

The Iwagakure ninja did not believe in evil and wanted to continue to kill the ghost lamp full moon. At this time, the ghost lamp full moon pointed his hand like a pistol at the Iwagakure ninja.

 “The art of water and iron cannon!”

boom!

 A bullet-like liquid shot out, knocking the Iwagakure ninja away and falling to the ground.

 “The Ghost Lantern Full Moon wins!”

  After leaving the fighting venue, Ghost Light Mangetsu noticed Kakashi. At the Youth Martial Arts Association, there were only a few ninjas with Kakashi's stature, and with their sparse white hair, they were easy to spot.

“You seem to be Lieyang Muyue’s disciple?” Ghost Lantern Manyue asked Kakashi.

 “That’s right.” Kakashi nodded and admitted.

Mu Yue's disciple is an identity that makes Kakashi proud, so there is no need to lie.

"Then I remember correctly, don't lose before the knockout round, Hatake Kakashi." Ghost Light Full Moon said provocatively.

 Kakashi’s expression was indifferent, even one of Kirigakure’s Jinchuuriki had been wiped out by Konoha, so it was normal for Kirigakure ninjas to hate him.

And if Kakashi remembers correctly, Mu Yue killed a strong man named Ghost Light Zangetsu on the battlefield on the east coast, maybe it had something to do with Ghost Light Full Moon.

"You must be very confused in your heart. I am not a stingy person. Let me just say it straight, Gui Deng Can Yue is my uncle." Gui Deng Man Yue answered with emotion.

“Although we don’t meet him very often, he is indeed my biological uncle.”

 Kakashi was a little speechless. Why was he confused? This ghost full moon looked like a normal person, but his actual performance was similar to Obito.

Kakashi, who found it troublesome, said nothing and quickly rushed to the sixth division.

“No. 3 contestant Sand Crab vs. No. 4 contestant Uda Nao!”

The first battle in the sixth division was a little slower. Kakashi only reached the second round of the first round in the sixth division.

 “It turns out his name is Sand Crab.” Kakashi stopped and prepared to watch the game.

This ninja named Sand Crab is exactly the ninja he noticed before using the Transparent World, and he has powerful chakra in his body.

 “The battle begins!”

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Uda Nao took action, drew his sword and rushed towards his opponent.

Facing the attacking Uda Nao, Sand Crab calmly took out a kunai to deal with it.

Due to the large gap in strength, Uda Nao was quickly caught by the Sand Crab and kicked to the ground.

Just when Uda Nao wanted to get up quickly and continue fighting, he was suddenly surprised to find that his body started to move on its own.

"What's going on!" Uda Nao looked shocked and watched helplessly as he stabbed the knife into his abdomen.

Other players watching the game were also surprised, wondering why Uda Nao suddenly started mutilating himself.

 “The sand crab wins!” In order to prevent the players from getting into trouble, the referee directly announced the end of the battle.

The moment the referee shouted, Uda Nao felt that he had regained control of his body, quickly pulled out the knife and covered the wound.

"Chakra thread, is it the puppet master?" Kakashi, who entered the transparent world state, observed that several thin lines touched Uda Nao's body after he fell to the ground.

 To say that the ninja who has the best and most skillful way to play with chakra strings is undoubtedly Sunagakure's puppet master.

 A powerful puppet master can control multiple puppets to attack, which is overwhelming.

 Kakashi was a little unsure, because the ninja named Sand Crab did not wear a Sunagakure forehead protector.

  The Youth Martial Arts Tournament is hugely popular, and a large number of ninja villages participate. Winning the Youth Martial Arts Tournament is good for the ninja village and may attract commissions, so there is no reason for the ninjas in the ninja village not to wear forehead protectors.

 “I’ll have to watch it again after the second round of battle.” Kakashi thought to himself.

 Given the current trend, he can deal with the enemy faster and should be able to reach the sixth stage before the sand crab battle begins.

 Then Kakashi went to the seventh division.

Don't be in a hurry if you don't go now. Kakashi will be shocked when he goes.

　　"What a terrifying chakra." Kakashi was instantly shocked when he observed Nagato's chakra using the Transparent World.

 Nagato’s chakra is not a question of having too much chakra. Except for the jinchūriki, Kakashi has never seen any ninja with such strong chakra.

Kakashi felt that he should change his adjective. Among the ninjas he had ever sensed, there was no one as perverted as Nagato.

 Because there are so many powerful people in Konoha, and Kakashi is not a peeping tom. When he sees a person, he will see through the world.

"He's a member of the Akatsuki organization." Kakashi looked at Nagato and gradually recalled some memories in his mind.

Kakashi was deeply impressed by the Akatsuki organization, because Naruto said that the Akatsuki organization is a terrorist organization that snatches tailed beasts. However, after they investigated in the Land of Rain, they found that the current Akatsuki organization is not only not scary, but also very positive.

 “No. 19 Nagato vs. No. 20 Kurosawa.”

Kakashi looked at the battle field with a serious look on his face. Kurosawa was the Kirigakure he had met in the Chunin Exam. Although he was not as good as Kisame Inikaki and Mei Terumi, he was still pretty good.

 “Water Release: The Technique of Kirigakure!”

Kurosawa quickly retreated as soon as he came on the stage, and then sprayed out a thick mist that enveloped the entire battle field.

 “Wind Escape·Press Harm!”

Nagato formed a seal with a calm expression and spit out a high-pressure wind ball.

 Hurrah!

 The wind ball turned into a huge storm instantly when it hit the ground, and the thick fog spit out by Kurosawa was blown away by the powerful storm in the blink of an eye.

However, the power of oppression does not stop there.

Powerful high-pressure winds raged across the field, and the ground was blown apart. Kurosawa did not expect that Nagato would use such a terrifying ninjutsu. He was instantly vomited blood and flew away after being affected by the high-pressure winds.

 Kakashi:…

　　We beat them very hard during the Chuunin exams, but why do they stretch their hips like this? They were instantly killed in one move.

"Ninjutsu is very strong, but if it's just this level, it can still be dealt with." Kakashi deduced in his mind.

Equivalent to Nagato’s exaggerated chakra, Nagato’s ninjutsu level actually didn’t surprise Kakashi.

Obito and Shisui's fire escape, and Kakashi's own thunder escape, they can all achieve this level, and they can even be stronger in the breathing method chakra state.

“Come over and have a look in the second round.” Kakashi planned to stay in the sixth and seventh divisions in addition to his own division today to study Nagato and Sand Crab.

Sand Crab's current performance is too little and it's hard to say. Whether Nagato is really just a chakra and wind escape should not be underestimated.

PS: It’s a bit slow, 6k today, but the plot has finally made a transition.

Also, please ask for monthly passes. Double monthly passes are available now.
