Chapter 53 Sparring with Kurenai Yuhi

Kitazawa followed the ANBU ninja Haru to the ninjutsu storage room.

After a brief moment of thought, he finalized his three ninjutsu techniques.

Water Release: Water Chaos Wave, Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique, and Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation, which I have already completed the mission for but have not yet acquired.

For ordinary ninjas, there are three types of ninjutsu that are very difficult to acquire.

The first type is forbidden techniques, such as the Impure World Reincarnation.

The second type is ninjutsu with strategic significance, such as the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The third type is the secret techniques or bloodline limits passed down by ninja clans, such as the Expansion Technique and Gentle Fist.

While Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique and Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation are signature ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan, they are not the three mentioned above.

After selecting three ninjutsu techniques, Kitazawa essentially wiped out all the ninjutsu skills rewarded by the system.

But that's only for now; we'll figure out how to use ninjutsu later.

Kitazawa put away the three ninjutsu scrolls and returned home.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Yakumo Kurama, who was sitting on the sofa, got up to greet him.

She held a scroll of the art of vomiting truth in her hand, clearly already beginning to learn it.

"You continue learning."

Kitazawa glanced around but didn't see Kurenai Yuhi.

She mostly sleeps in her room.

After a moment's thought, Kitazawa arrived at the open space behind the house.

He pretended to practice ninjutsu.

Time passed slowly, and by noon, Kurenai Yuhi woke up.

She sat up, stretched, and then sensed a burning chakra fluctuation.

"Who's practicing Fire Release? Kitazawa?"

Kurenai walked to the window and looked outside.

As expected, it was Kitazawa.

Under his control, a large amount of chakra transformed into clusters of flames, scattering like the fruits of the balsam flower.

This is Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique.

Kurenai recognized her at a glance.

She knew that many ninjas knew this fire-style ninjutsu, but Kitazawa seemed very skilled at it.

These clusters of flames seemed to come alive in his hands, striking wherever he pointed.

In Kurenai's memory, Kitazawa was a normal Chunin.

But now it seems rather unfathomable.

Kurenai remembered what Kitazawa had said before: that they could call on him when they needed more people for a mission.

She touched her chin, a look of curiosity in her eyes.

Kurenai left the room, changed her shoes, and went outside.

"Awake? How did you sleep?"

Kitazawa dispersed his chakra and asked.

"Slept well."

Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "I feel like I have inexhaustible energy right now."

"The Hokage rewarded me with three ninjutsu."

Kitazawa reminded him, "Go to the Hokage Building when you have time."

"As expected of the Hokage, he is very generous."

Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, then asked, "The Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique that you just practiced was the ninjutsu that the Hokage rewarded you with?"

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded.

"You haven't learned Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique before?"

Kurenai's expression changed slightly, and she asked.

"No."

Kitazawa guessed what she was thinking, but he didn't explain, because that was exactly what he wanted.

"You learned Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique in just one morning? Your talent in Fire Release ninjutsu is astonishing."

Kurenai Yuhi sighed, "You're wasting your talent by becoming a teacher at the ninja academy."

A normal ninja has a mentor and can frequently go out on missions, so they don't lack opportunities to train.

But the teachers at the ninja academy don't have these.

In Kurenai's view, this is precisely why Kitazawa's talent has not been realized.

"Want to have a match?"

Kurenai asked with great interest.

"You look like you want to beat me up."

Kitazawa remarked.

"Don't worry, I'll go easy on you."

Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "Let's go to the nearby training ground."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.

There's no harm in sparring with Kurenai Yuhi; it's a good opportunity to showcase his strength.

The two quickly arrived at the nearest training ground.

"careful!"

Kurenai gave a reminder and then formed a hand seal.

But Kitazawa was faster than her.

Art fire escape ho fireball!
A huge fireball hurtled toward her.

Kurenai was forced to cancel the hand seals for the Magical Tree Binding Kill and instead use the Body Flicker Technique.

Chakra surged forth and wrapped around her legs.

Kurenai suddenly accelerated, narrowly avoiding the fireball.

As the fireball grazed past her, sweat beaded on her forehead from the intense heat.

Kurenai Yuhi felt it was unbelievable.

Kitazawa's Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique surpasses that of a typical C-rank ninjutsu.

Not only is the hand seal formation fast, but its power is also extremely strong.

In the instant she was stunned, Kitazawa was already in front of her.

Konoha whirlwind!

Kurenai Yuhi quickly raised her arms to block Kitazawa's kick.

Bang.

The immense force struck, causing her arms to feel numb and tingly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kurenai Yuhi pushed back, widening the distance between them.

Magical Tree Binding Kill!

Once she had steadied herself, Kurenai formed a hand seal.

The next second, her body disappeared.

Kitazawa froze in place, and a giant tree sprouted from his legs, its vines wrapping around him.

Kurenai appeared from the treetop, holding a dagger, and stabbed him.

But just as it was about to hit, everything vanished.

Kurenai's expression changed drastically.

This is because it's the result of the illusion being dispelled.

Kitazawa knew she was a genjutsu ninja, so he was always on guard against her genjutsu.

The illusion was broken the moment the illusion was cast.

The sound of wind came from behind Kurenai Yuhi.

She quickly turned around, only to be met with Kitazawa's fist.

But in her haste, she had no time to dodge.

Kitazawa smiled at her, loosened his fist, and patted her head.

Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, then glared at him before raising her long, white leg and kicking him.

Kitazawa reacted quickly, taking a step back.

The short boots with exposed toes flashed past his eyes.

Illusion: Naraku's clone!

Seeing that her attack had failed, Kurenai Yuhi formed hand seals.

Two clones appeared from within the smoke.

The three Kurenai Yuhi quickly launched an attack on Kitazawa.

The combination of illusion and clone technique left Kitazawa momentarily confused.

I can recognize the white eye, but it will scare Kurenai Yuhi.

Fire Release·Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!
Kitazawa, unable to distinguish them, stopped trying and opened his mouth, spitting out clusters of flames.

The flames struck Kurenai Yuhi like bullets.

Her two clones were quickly dealt with.

Instantaneous technique!
Kurenai dodged left and right, finally avoiding the overly agile flames.

She took a breath and looked at Kitazawa, who was standing still, with surprise.

Based on the exchange just now, his strength surpasses that of most Chunin.

"With your abilities, why are you staying at the ninja academy as a teacher?"

Kurenai couldn't help but ask.

"Didn't I say before? It's purely a personal preference."

Kitazawa smiled and asked again, "Want to continue?"

"I'm not fighting anymore. I already know your strength."

After a moment's thought, Kurenai Yuhi said.

She was afraid that if the fight continued, she would be the one to lose, which would be too embarrassing.
