In Konoha: I will spread the will of conquest throughout the ninja world.

Sakumo Hatake's eyes were serious, while Yoka Igogaku had a smile on his lips.

next second.

Whoosh!

A flash of cold light arrived first, followed by several afterimages in an instant!

The intimidating presence of Konoha's White Fang was displayed to the fullest extent.

The White Fang Short Blade unleashed power in his hands far exceeding that of his ancestors, and the Hatake Sword Technique underwent a complete transformation in his hands!

Wu Zixuan neither dodged nor avoided, standing still and letting the short blade slash at him.

Silky smooth.

Sakumo Hatake felt no resistance at all.

The short blade pierced straight through Isogen's body, leaving several chakra traces that were healing at a visible speed.

The third level of reverse birth.

Sakumo Hatake had witnessed the power of this technique in the past few years.

By transforming their bodies into chakra, they lack the obvious weaknesses of the Hozuki clan, making them a nightmare for close-combat ninjas.

But it's just chakra transformation, not complete immunity to attacks!

As chakra was channeled into White Fang, the tip of the blade extended, and the chakra-formed blade gleamed with a more captivating aura than any metal blade!

This is the true purpose of white teeth. Anyone who thinks that the length of white teeth is the attack range will pay a heavy price.

"Since physical attacks can't hit, what about chakra attacks?" Hatake Sakumo's eyes narrowed, and with a flick of his wrist, the White Fang short blade turned into raindrops and slammed into the target.

……

"quick!"

"Extremely fast, reaching the physical peak that an ordinary ninja can achieve."

Ichigen fully experienced the intimidating power of Konoha's White Fang.

As it turns out, Konoha's White Fang truly deserved his reputation as a formidable force in the ninja world!

To reach the limits of common sense with the human body.

The only ones faster than Sakumo Hatake are the future Minato Namikaze and the big guy from Kumogakure who specializes in Lightning Release chakra mode.

But even they couldn't possibly achieve a true speed advantage over Sakumo Hatake.

He may not be able to compete in terms of software facilities, but his hardware is still top-notch in the ninja world.

The fastest ninja in the future will at most surpass Hatake Sakumo in straight-line speed, but will not be able to use this to suppress Hatake Sakumo in combat.

In the art of swordsmanship, Hatake Sakumo had reached the pinnacle that ordinary ninjas and samurai could achieve.

This "normal" category includes normal bloodline ninjas; as for what constitutes "abnormal," that's another matter.

The two mutants from the early days of Konoha's founding are representative examples.

If one is not an abnormal ninja who specializes in swordsmanship, even Hashirama Senju cannot compare to Sakumo Hatake in terms of swordsmanship.

But as the saying goes, for every clever plan you have, there's a way to get around it!

Hatake Sakumo's swordsmanship was indeed sharp, and his fighting style targeting chakra evolution was indeed fierce, but!

The wind passes without a trace, then opens!

The brain is constantly processing information from the outside world and issuing instructions to the body.

Before Hatake Sakumo made his move, he had already planned his position and activated the Reverse Life Triple Evasion in advance. It seemed that Hatake Sakumo had cut through his defense, but in reality, he had deliberately let go.

The combination of these two techniques is a perfect counter to ninjas like Sakumo Hatake.

Soon, Hatake Sakumo also noticed that something was wrong with Igogami. He quickly moved away and only looked up at Igogami when he was at a safe distance.

I have a million emotions I want to express.

Although he knew that there was a compatibility issue between himself and the 50th string, he really didn't expect that the compatibility could reach this level.

It has completely fallen to the lowest point in history!

It's said that ninja battles are battles of intelligence, but what should he do in this situation?

Among the onlookers, everyone was alarmed by what they saw.

"White Fang's continuous attacks have been completely ineffective!"

"The compatibility is too bad. Isogen-kun's Reverse Regeneration Triple can make him immune to physical attacks. Even if it is a chakra attack, he can dodge it with his keen senses."

"The only way to deal with Isogen-kun is to use large-scale long-range ninjutsu."

Everyone exchanged glances and made comments, each building a mental model based on the situation on the field.

How should you deal with such an enemy if you encounter them in your own territory?

However, after a period of construction, many people found themselves drenched in sweat.

Useless, absolutely useless!

The combined effect of these two techniques was truly astonishing, even startling the ninja clans who were used to seeing great storms.

Putting everything else aside, Hatake Sakumo's attack speed alone is enough to overwhelm many people present, resulting in them being killed on their first encounter.

The fact that Wuxian was able to react is enough to show how extraordinary his physical talent is.

"Is he really not a descendant of the Senju clan?"

"The physical condition meets the requirements, but there is indeed no way to distinguish them." The head of the Inuzuka family shook his head slightly.

Since he, a reconnaissance ninja, said so, the others had no choice but to withdraw their open guesses and mutter to themselves.

It's no wonder they made the connection to the Senju clan, who had already integrated into Konoha; it's just that Isogen's talent made it hard to recognize them together.

Unlike other bloodline clans, which have their own distinctive characteristics, the Senju clan is characterized by its strong vitality and massive chakra reserves.

However, both the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans also have them.

Therefore, after the Senju clan merged into Konoha, unless there was solid evidence to prove their identity, even if the First Hokage were dug out, they would not be able to identify them.

"Wow, that's amazing." Little Kakashi's face was filled with shock.

The first time he saw his father's white teeth, his attack was fierce but had no effect.

Moreover, the speed of this strike far exceeded his understanding of his father's performance.

"How did he do that?"

"Hehe, pretty impressive, huh!"

Just as the playful and melodious female voice rang in my ears, two large, tangible hands descended from the sky.

I angrily rubbed the dog's head!

Kakashi awakened the Byakugan on the spot.

I wanted to resist, but I couldn't, so I simply continued with the previous question.

"How did he do that? Is this level of reaction speed and skill really possible for someone his age?"

Kushina looked at him in surprise: "You know quite a lot! This isn't knowledge you should be able to grasp at your age, is it?"

"I just spent more time improving myself while other kids were playing."

At this moment, Kakashi exuded the aura of a precocious youth in the ninja world.

Kushina clicked her tongue: "I can tell."

He'll definitely be a cocky brat from the start.

"So how exactly did he do it?" Kakashi asked, not forgetting his original intention.

"Haha, I don't know either." Kushina put her hands on her hips and laughed heartily.

"..."

At that moment, Hinata Mizuki held up the cardboard.

[It's actually quite simple. As Ishigaki-kun said, the human body is divided into Yin and Yang. All ninjutsu, sage techniques, and even the various magical abilities wielded by shrine maidens are inseparable from Yin and Yang. As long as Yin-Yang escaping techniques are raised to a certain level, miraculous things will happen.]

"Damn it! As expected of Mizuki!" Kushina gave a thumbs up.

Kakashi looked thoughtful.

The concept of Yin-Yang Escape was beyond his knowledge.

However, this did not prevent him from knowing that Hinata Mizuki was telling the truth.

So, if I raise my Yin-Yang Release to that person's level, I can fight my father?

……

"All methods of attack in the world, whether they are ninjutsu, sage techniques, or things that existed before ninjutsu, are all created with the purpose of defeating the opponent."

"Conversely, if one can dodge or defend against all attacks, then all means of attack become meaningless."

The clear, crisp sound of the fifty-stringed melody rang out in the arena.

Hatake Sakumo nodded slightly: "That's right. Even if it's a forbidden technique, it's meaningless if it can't defeat the opponent."

Sakumo Hatake was not surprised that Isogen was able to dodge his attacks.

If he couldn't even reach this level, then he wouldn't have been able to do that when he went to Kusagakure last time.

Half of a ninja village was turned into a dead zone.

Given the intensity of this confrontation, I'm afraid that even by the end of this assessment, they won't be able to discover more about the fifty strings.

He took a casual attitude towards it. After all, no matter what, Isogen was a member of Konoha. Although he was a bit mischievous, the outcome wasn't all bad.

His thoughts were racing, and the fifty strings were not idle either.

He glanced at the people present out of the corner of his eye.

Among them were commoners and ninja clans.

They are basically all prominent figures in Konoha.

Only a few are Chunin; the majority are Jonin.

The ninja clan's profound heritage shines brightly.

As for Jonin, the title of Kage of a village is just a nominal one. In reality, even a Kage is only a Jonin.

He doesn't actually need to go through the graduation exam if he wants to graduate; given his good relationship with Hiruzen Sarutobi, he certainly wouldn't stop him.

But he still came, to participate in this meaningless graduation assessment.

That's all for these people!

"Senior White Fang, do you know that the progress of human technology is essentially about boiling water and throwing stones?"

"Um?"
