I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

Chapter 22 Class 8 VS Kurenai Yuhi

The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.

Liu Sheng has finished his daily morning training and is taking a shower in the bathroom.

The shadow clone was making breakfast.

Just as the shadow clone brought out the breakfast, dissipated on its own, turning into a wisp of white smoke, Yagyu happened to come out of the bathroom.

After having breakfast, Yagyu went to his room to change his clothes.

A white undershirt, a black trench coat, and black ninja pants and ninja shoes.

After tying up his ninja tool bag and ninja headband, Yagyu went to the bathroom and put on his red contact lenses.

After getting dressed, Yagyu left his house and headed towards the training ground.

It's only 7:25 now.

Upon arriving at the training ground, Yagyu discovered that he was the last one to arrive.

Good morning, Hinata and Shino.

"Good morning, Yagyu-kun."

Yagyu raised his hand to greet the two of them.

Hinata responded immediately, still using a respectful form of address when addressing Yagyu.

Shino Aburame, with her hands in her pockets and leaning against the wooden post, nodded slightly: "Good morning."

Yagyu didn't mind Shino Aburame's attitude.

Others might just think Shino Aburame is putting on a cool act, but Yagyu, as a transmigrator, knows that Shino Aburame is simply not good with words and is a bit of a repressed pervert.

He actually has a very passionate heart and longs for friendship and recognition.

Having had his personality sealed, he also lost his original character design in Boruto.

One of his teammates was shy, and the other was reserved and introverted, so Liu Sheng didn't know what to talk about with them.

If Shino Aburame weren't around, Yagyu might have been tempted to tease Hinata.

But with someone who can sense insects around, if Yagyu dares to tease Hinata, not only will this extremely shy girl turn into a steam princess and faint, but his embarrassing past will also definitely be recorded by Shino Aburame.

So, Yagyu leaned against a wooden stake, closed his eyes to rest, and waited for Kurenai to appear.

Time passed by, and soon it was eight o'clock in the morning.

whoosh-

Kurenai Yuhi was not late.

As soon as the time came, she instantly appeared in front of Yagyu and the other two.

It's just that the three of them didn't have watches; otherwise, if they had checked the time, they would have been suspicious that Kurenai had arrived long ago, arriving at the exact time.

"It seems you're all ready. Let's begin."

Seeing the three Yagyu members standing ready, Kurenai took out three bells from her ninja tool pouch, waved them in front of them, and said with a smile, "Your mission is simple: find a way to steal these three bells from me."

After saying this, Kurenai hung the bell on her waist and said to the three of them, "Well then... let's begin!"

whoosh-

Almost the instant Kurenai finished speaking, the three Yagyu were reduced to afterimages and disappeared from the spot.

Kurenai Yuhi stood still, one hand on her hip.

She didn't teleport to find the three of them, nor did she use her perception technique to locate them.

Instead, he stood still, acting as a target, wanting to see what the three of them, including Yagyu, would do.

Unlike Kakashi Hatake, who only has two bells and a time limit, she doesn't have any.

Kurenai Yuhi's test for Team 8 was definitely the easiest among all the Jonin she trained.

Perhaps... this is the gentleness of women.

Whoosh whoosh—

Seeing that Kurenai Yuhi made no move, as if she was letting them attack her.

Soon, someone from Class 8 couldn't contain himself any longer. Three kunai flew out from a lush tree, whistling through the air, and hurtled towards Kurenai.

All three kunai were aimed at Kurenai Yuhi's head.

To be able to accurately lock onto a head from such a distance demonstrates that this person's throwing technique is exceptional.

Faced with the attack of the three kunai, Kurenai Yuhi did not dodge at all, but let the kunai pierce into her head.

*Pfft—Bang!*

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh had barely been heard when Kurenai Yuhi turned into a puff of white smoke.

After the white smoke dissipated, a piece of wood with three kunai stuck in it fell to the ground.

Kurenai's figure emerged from behind another wooden stake.

Substitution Technique!

Kurenai's actions seemed to be telling the three of them that she would not go all out, but would instead suppress her strength to test them.

Then three more black beads flew out from another big tree.

The thrower's skill was equally exquisite; the three beads landed in front of Kurenai, and on the left and right sides respectively.

With a few loud bangs, three plumes of white smoke billowed out and enveloped the Crimson Sunset.

"Eight Trigrams - Empty Palm!"

Just as the smoke engulfed the crimson sunset, a girl's delicate shout rang out.

Hinata appeared instantly and struck the smoke ahead with a palm strike.

A swirling mass of air immediately flew out from her palm.

The distorted airflow transformed into air projectiles, which fell into the smoke.

The next second, the smoke was blown away by the strong wind, revealing the figure of Kurenai Yuhi.

However, Kurenai's figure also took on a distorted shape, like a mirage in the desert, gradually becoming transparent.

After Kurenai Yuhi's figure disappeared, a black phantom suddenly appeared out of thin air behind Hinata.

Since Hinata didn't activate her Byakugan, she didn't seem to notice the black phantom.

Just as the black phantom attacked Hinata, Hinata suddenly turned into a cloud of white smoke with a "bang".

The white smoke dissipated, and Hinata disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Kurenai Yuhi, who had emerged from behind the wooden stake, exclaimed with delight, "It's Shadow Clone Technique?"

Just as Sasuke Uchiha's use of the Great Fireball Technique in the original story greatly surprised Kakashi Hatake, Hinata's ability to use the Shadow Clone Technique at her age greatly surprised Kurenai Yuhi.

This means that Hinata's chakra reserves far exceed the standard for her age.

But what surprised Kurenai Yuhi even more was yet to come.

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

A soft shout rang out from behind, and then a huge torrent of water, forming a wave five or six meters high, crashed down towards Kurenai Yuhi.

Turning her head to look at the astonishing waves, Kurenai's eyes were filled with surprise, and for the first time, she chose to dodge in an instant.

boom--

The incredibly heavy waves crashed onto the ground with a loud thud.

Before the water had been absorbed by the ground, two figures were seen walking on the water, rushing towards Kurenai Yuhi, who had appeared in another open space in an instant.

The two figures looked exactly alike; it was none other than Yagyu.

Gazing at the approaching Yagyu and his shadow clone, Kurenai Yuhi's eyes remained filled with astonishment: "To be able to create such an astonishing flow of water in a waterless environment... such chakra... is he really a genin?"

However, seeing that Yagyu and his shadow clone were already close by, Kurenai Yuhi had no time to guess Yagyu's secret.

Instinctively, Kurenai took out a kunai from her ninja tool pouch, preparing to test Yagyu's close combat skills.

But the next second, another scene appeared that made her pupils constrict and her face turn pale with shock.

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

Two Yagyu students rushed towards them, and one of them suddenly leaped backward, forming a hand seal in mid-air and spitting out an astonishing stream of water from his mouth.

The water surged again, but its target was not Kurenai Yuhi, but Yagyu in front of her.

While maintaining his forward momentum, Yagyu suddenly raised his right hand, palm facing up, as if trying to catch the crashing waves.
