The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

Minato Namikaze was taken aback.

But they soon noticed the Iwagakure ninja who had come after them.

"Leave first, and we'll talk again when we get back to a safe place."

Uehara Shu took a step back, effortlessly using Water Release techniques.

"Water escape, water dragon bullet technique!"

Pipa Juzo raised the Blue Rose Sword.

A single sword thrust into the water dragon will freeze it, causing it to fall and shatter into countless ice fragments.

Immediately afterwards, Pipa Juzang rushed towards the original cultivator.

"Ding!"

The two ninja swords clashed.

Uehara Shu felt an extremely strong recoil force, and his body involuntarily retreated, but he quickly regained his balance by relying on the body control ability brought by his physical skills.

Ringo Yuri stared blankly.

"Is Senior Xiu really that strong?"

Ringo Ameyuri puts herself in the position of Biwa Juzo and competes with Uehara Osamu, only to realize that if Uehara Osamu were her opponent, she would have already lost.

"His physical skills are very strong."

"His swordsmanship is even stronger."

"But even stronger is Water Release."

"I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like Senior Xiu uses Water Release even more smoothly than Teacher Juzo."

Ao glanced at Ringo Ameyuri.

"This isn't your misperception; Xiu's Water Release techniques are indeed very well used."

"Leaving aside the factor of chakra, neither Juzo nor I are as good as Shu in water release techniques."

"He is skilled in water-based techniques and possesses top-tier talent."

Ringo Yuri's eyes widened.

"Then Senior Xiu is a genius in water-style techniques, so why doesn't he mainly develop in that direction?"

As she blurted out those words unconsciously, Ringo Ameyuri realized that she had forgotten Uehara Osamu's identity.

Uehara Osamu is a blacksmith.

"That's right. Senior Xiu's talent in forging is probably even stronger than that of Water Release. Otherwise, he would never have been able to forge such a powerful ninja sword."

"Even just his second best skill is this amazing."

"too strong."

Ringo Ameyuri looked at Uehara Shu, a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Xiu's talent is indeed enviable."

Qing said, "But Yuri, you're pretty good too. Don't get upset just because you saw Xiu's performance. Compared to your peers, Yuri, you're already very good."

"You've only been switching from medical ninja to combat ninja for such a short time, and you've already made great progress."

"In the future, he may very well become an elite ninja of the village."

Ringo Ayuri nodded.

"Yeah, I'll try my best!"

Pipa Juzo knocked Uehara Shu back with one strike, but instead of continuing the pursuit, he leaped backward.

"Xiu, let's call it a day."

"Yes, Senior Juzo."

Uehara Shu was breathing heavily.

It has to be said that fighting against an elite Jonin like Juzo Biwa is exhausting and stressful.

Even if Juzo Biwa didn't use his full strength, even if Juzo Biwa didn't have any killing intent.

However, in terms of overall strength, the current Hiwa Juzo is completely superior to Uehara Shu.

"Senior Juzo, what aspects do I need to improve?"

Pipa Juzo thought for a moment.

"It's mainly a matter of experience and strategy. The process of a ninja's battle is actually a game of strategy, where different moves are countered by different moves."

"Therefore, it is very important to determine what kind of attack the other party will use."

Uehara Osamu said, "Like rock-paper-scissors?"

"That's right, it's like rock-paper-scissors."

Pipa Juzo nodded.

"But it's much more complicated than rock-paper-scissors because there are many more abilities and elements involved in a ninja battle, which creates a great many possible scenarios."

"However, your performance this time has already exceeded my expectations."

"Your progress in physical skills is amazing."

"But what's even more surprising is your swordsmanship."

Uehara Osamu gave himself an excuse.

"Perhaps it's because I've forged a lot of ninja swords, so I know more about them than most people. Once I start using them, I naturally get a feel for them."

Pipa Juzo accepted Uehara Osamu's reason.

For half a month, Uehara Osamu was engaged in live-fire training.

The opponent is either Juzo Biwa or Ao.

Half a month later, Uehara Shu gradually adapted and passed through the period of rapid improvement before he lowered his expectations.

After dinner, Uehara Shu returned to his room.

"Almost there, we can enter the dimensional material dungeon now."

Uehara Shu took out the blueprints, and an idea popped into his head.

The Dimensional Materials dungeon is now open.

Startup successful.

Transmitting.

Uehara Shu's figure disappeared on the forging island.

The land of fire, Konoha.

Kakashi and Rin Nohara were taken to the medical department for treatment.

Kakashi's condition was more serious, and he spent more time in the medical ward.

When Kakashi came out of the medical department, Nohara Rin had been resting at home for several days, adjusting her mindset, and came to the entrance of the medical department to wait for Kakashi to come out.

"Kakashi, over here."

Nohara Rin forced a smile.

Kakashi walked towards Rin Nohara.

The two stood side by side.

Rin Nohara couldn't help but glance at Kakashi's left eye.

There was a blindfold covering his eyes.

"Kakashi."

"Ok?"

How are your eyes?

"It's Obito's eyes."

After Kakashi finished speaking, a silence fell between the two of them, and the atmosphere became heavy.

Kakashi glanced at Rin Nohara and pursed his lips.

"Rin, let's go eat barbecue. Obito said that after the war is over, he wants to eat barbecue to his heart's content without any worries. I think this is the only thing we can do for him now."

"it is good."

Suddenly, a figure walked towards you from the opposite direction.

"Kakashi."

Asuma took the initiative to greet Kakashi.

Kakashi nodded.

But the next moment, Kakashi couldn't help but recall Obito Uchiha's dying words.

"Why does Sarutobi Asuma have ninjas secretly protecting him, while we have nothing?"

Is this fair?

Kakashi's gaze subtly shifted.

Asuma noticed it and subconsciously felt somewhat uncomfortable.

As Asuma watched Kakashi and Rin Nohara enter the barbecue restaurant, a voice reached his ears.

"Have you heard? Obito Uchiha is dead."

Asma's pupils contracted.

Asuma quickly realized why Kakashi's eyes changed when he looked at him.

"Because Obito Uchiha died."

"But as I am about to die, will a ninja secretly come to my aid?"
