Chapter 7 The Ultimate Technique of Physical Arts: Thousand-Year Kill

Seeing the two running with such skill, Hatake Sakumo became somewhat interested, especially the blond kid, whose center of gravity was very low and whose hands swung behind his back had a real ninja flair.

However, that curly-haired brat who called himself "uncle" wasn't so proper; he was waving his hands in front of his chest, which was really inappropriate!

"Watch out, Lord Sakumo!"

Minato Namikaze called out. He didn't know who the ninja in front of him was, but he still heard the Hokage call out the name Sakumo.

At that moment, Minato and Tatsuma's attacks arrived almost simultaneously, their kunai aimed at Sakumo Hatake's waist.

Hatake Sakumo's eyelids twitched. Although he understood that it was because of the height difference between the two, he was still very unhappy!

"Bang!"

Just as the two of them touched Hatake Sakumo, Hatake Sakumo suddenly turned into smoke.

"Knock knock~"

The two kunai landed on a piece of wood. This was the most basic use of the Substitute Technique. Sakumo Hatake didn't even bother to find the right moment or position. If he had, it would have been too unfair to the two children.

Hatake Sakumo knew why Sarutobi Hiruzen had asked him to "spar" with the two children, so he appeared about ten meters away from Tatsuma and the other two.

This distance is the distance at which lower-grade students at the Ninja Academy practice ninja tool throwing. The two children just now were also practicing ninja tool throwing at this distance.

As Sakumo Hatake wished, Tatsuma and Minato quickly switched weapons, from mottled kunai to rusty shuriken.

The two threw a total of six shuriken, which flew towards Sakumo Hatake at varying speeds. The reason for the unevenness was that neither of them used the technique of throwing multiple shuriken at the same time.

Minato hadn't learned it yet, while Tatsuma, although he learned the technique from Minato's throwing talent, only had 20% of the talent, which wasn't enough for him to use the technique well.

These six shuriken did not put any pressure on Hatake Sakumo in the slightest. He caught the shuriken by drawing a circle in the air with both hands, and then flung them back at the two of them.

Seeing the shuriken, which was at least twice as fast as when they left, Tatsuma and Minato both showed signs of tension, quickly tracking the trajectory of the shuriken and swinging their kunai rapidly.

"Ding ding ding~"

"Ding ding~"

Tatsuma successfully deflected three shuriken, while Minato only managed to deflect two, though he cleanly dodged the last one.

"Not bad!"

Hatake Sakumo rarely boasted, but the next moment, his figure disappeared into a cloud of smoke, from which came Hatake Sakumo's voice.

Guess which one is me?

"Pfft pfft pfft~"

Three figures of Sakumo Hatake emerged from the smoke and rushed towards the two. They were not shadow clones, but only the most basic clone technique. However, their appearance alone was enough to deceive the eye.

At least Tatsuma couldn't tell. He threw out his last shuriken, which flew towards Sakumo Hatake in the middle, while his kunai was thrust towards Sakumo Hatake on the left.

Seeing this, Minato also quickly thrust at Hatake Sakumo on the right. Since he couldn't tell the difference, he would treat them all as real.

"Pfft pfft pfft~"

To their surprise, all three Hatake Sakumos were fakes. Tatsuma pursed his lips and said, "We were misled."

Sakumo Hatake's words just now led both of them to assume that one of the three Sakumo Hatakes was real, but they never expected that this thick-browed, big-eyed Sakumo Hatake would actually play tricks on two five-year-old children!

Fortunately, Sakumo Hatake only treated it as teasing a child and did not follow up with a subsequent combo; otherwise, Tatsuma and Minato would have been defeated in one blow.

"Now, it's time to show you some truly impressive ninjutsu!"

Sakumo Hatake's voice rang out again. Suddenly, two Sakumo Hatakes rushed towards them from the side. The two quickly blocked the attack and prepared themselves to help the other person, knowing that they were facing clones.

"Bang bang~"

But unexpectedly, this time both were physical entities! Minato and Tatsuma were kicked and flew in two different directions.

Shadow Clone Technique! The information about this ninjutsu flashed through Tatsuma's mind, but there was no time to think about it anymore, because Hatake Sakumo's demonic voice rang out again.

"Some time ago, I developed a physical technique that I believe can be called the ultimate martial art! It can make people experience the pain of a thousand years of torment in an instant."

"You two brats will be the first opponents of this ultimate taijutsu technique! If you can withstand it, you've won!"

A thousand years of killing?!

Chenma felt a sudden tightness in his back door and also felt a pair of malicious eyes staring at him from behind.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, standing not far away, frowned. He hadn't heard Sakumo Hatake mention of developing any taijutsu recently, and what's more, was he going to use the profound techniques of taijutsu on these two kids? That was utterly ridiculous!

At this moment, Sakumo Hatake, who appeared behind Tatsuma and Minato, also completed the hand seals. Seeing the seals, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned more and more.

"Tiger Seal? Fire Release? No, it's clearly a taijutsu."

He was quickly analyzing the situation, but at the same time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also prepared to stop the attack, since he had already seen enough to satisfy him.

He can't let these two children get hurt; otherwise, he wouldn't deserve to be the Hokage of Konoha!

"A Thousand Years of Killing!"

"Watergate! Dodge to the side!"

Tatsuma shouted quickly, and at the same time, disregarding his image, he huddled together and rolled to the side. Minato didn't know why, but he still jumped to the side with great trust, and then quickly looked at the location where Hatake Sakumo had been behind him.

Sakumo Hatake was seen squatting on the ground, his hands forming the Tiger Seal and extending forward. Seeing Sakumo's posture and the height of his hands, Minato felt a tightness in his back door, thankful for Tatsuma's timely reminder.

"Huh? They all dodged it? What an amazing genius!"

"Bang!"

The shadow clone of Hatake Sakumo beside Minato disappeared, and Hatake Sakumo's real body, not far from Tatsuma, stood up, scratched his head, and looked embarrassed. He had actually failed.

Tatsuma felt a chill creep up his spine from his tailbone. This Sakumo Hatake was actually going to use his true form to perform this technique on him—it was truly an insult to his dignity!

Sakumo Hatake looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, thinking he was about to report back, but then he saw Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.

For a fleeting moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi even thought that Sakumo Hatake was really going to hurt the village children, but it turned out to be such a farce! What a waste of his worry!

As expected, his judgment that Hatake Sakumo might fall into darkness if he stayed in the ANBU for too long was absolutely wrong. This person had no right to fall into darkness at all!

"Hahaha~" Hatake Sakumo scratched his head and said, "As agreed, I lost. Let's go, I'll take you guys to buy ninja tools!"

"Ding~ Praise and defeat your opponent to pick up the talents [Speed ​​+1] and [Ninja +1]"

Upon hearing the system notification, Chenma's lips twitched violently. He was almost overwhelmed by the thought that he could only pick up such a small amount of talent.

"Pick it up".

Hey! Come and eat!
