Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

Mikami Yu's lips twitched. What kind of nonsense is this? So, even with the clone technique, she's read "Dream of the Red Chamber"?

Before he could respond,

The eldest sister's transformation technique spoke once again:

[Transformation Technique: Little clone, stop fooling around. The mistress has already gone to such lengths to prepare this gift for you, and you're still being picky. If you don't want it, then I and the Substitute Technique will take it.]

[Clone Technique: Who said I don't want it? Hmph, what gift? Consider it his apology for not including me when he was dealing with that cataract!]

[Clone Technique: Affection +2, Temporarily unlocks the [Gift Giving] option]

Having played with this little corner of the wood for so long, I have to say that the transformation skill is the most understanding.

However, the idea of ​​creating a clone is really just a myth.

Like Hao Huoqiu, this guy has a bit of a "saying one thing but meaning another" characteristic, so soon, "she" verbally accepted the gift with a happy yet awkward attitude.

Mikami Yu didn't care about any of that.

He was only curious about how to give the gift; if he did give it, what changes would occur to the clone technique, and would things like the favorability rating be reset to zero?

soon.

On a whim, Yu Mikami clicked on "Send Gift".

A flash of white light followed.

The water-reflecting roll on the table suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, the strategy list in the Ga La Ge Mu system has changed—

[Currently available targets: Transformation Technique, Water Clone Technique (Shadow Clone Technique), Substitution Technique, Great Fireball Technique, Healing Technique]

[Potential targets: Water Ripple Technique, Gentle Fist (conditions not met)]

【Water Clone Technique (Clone Technique): A clone technique that wears the limited-edition "Water Clone Technique" skin. It possesses the same properties as the Water Clone Technique, creating a water clone with 10% of the original's power. The clone's abilities are enhanced when it is in water, but it cannot be too far away from the original.】

[Clone Technique: Affection +8, Current Affection: 52/100 (Intimacy)]

(Stage reward obtained: Constitution +1, Trait - Vision Sharing: Your clone technique has partial vision. When you concentrate, you can link the vision of your main body with that of two clones and share their field of vision.)

(Note: This property can be used on "moisture-retained" skin.)

"Oh my god..."

Yu Mikami clenched his fist tightly, a look of delight on his face.

He didn't look down on the Shadow Clone Technique, but to be fair, the ordinary E-rank Shadow Clone Technique does have fewer uses. It can still be used in Genin matches, but it's hard to be effective against Chunin and above. In most cases, it's not as useful as just throwing a smoke bomb.

However, water clones are different.

This thing is very similar to the Shadow Clone Technique, except that the clones are weaker, only one-tenth the strength of the original. Otherwise, they are basically the same. However, the Shadow Clone Technique is a B-rank ninjutsu, which is usually learned by Jonin. At this stage, having a water clone is more than enough.

The emergence of water clones has also made the feature of [visual sharing] truly useful.

"Speaking of which..."

Since "Water Clone" can be considered the skin of the Clone Technique, then wouldn't "Great Dragon Fire Technique" be considered the skin of "Great Fireball"?

There are also "Great Fire Extinction" and "Great Fire Annihilation"; as well as "Lightning Release Clone" and "Earth Release Clone"...

Although these techniques are mostly B-rank or higher ninjutsu, making them somewhat difficult to obtain, at least Mikami Yu knows a direction to strive for.

"What a bumper harvest!"

"Oh right, there's also 'Water Ripple'... I'll practice it tomorrow, it's already too late today."

Yu Mikami glanced at the moonlight outside the window, recovered from his excitement, quickly washed up, and went to bed.

……

The next day.

As usual, Yu Mikami, along with Rin Nohara and Obito, went to Konoha Hospital for a half-day class.

Then that afternoon, they arrived at the main road of Konoha Village, where they met Might Guy and his son, who were dressed in dark green bodysuits and running upside down like an Abnormal Sprite.

"Hey! Kai! Your youth isn't passionate enough, is it? You're already tired after only running five laps around Konoha upside down?"

"I'm sorry, Dad! It's my fault! If I can't run 10 laps around Konoha Village, I'll do 1000 push-ups!"

"Great! That's it! Very energetic!"

Matt Day shouted in a rough voice.

Matt Kai responded at the top of his lungs from the side.

Suddenly, Might Guy noticed Yu Mikami standing by the roadside. He immediately freed one hand, gave him a thumbs-up, and flashed a bright white smile: "It's Yu! Good afternoon! Are you here to burn with youth with us too?"

"...I guess so. Can I not do a handstand?"

Mikami Yu's lips twitched slightly as he spoke.

He considered himself quite socially adept, but compared to Matt Damon, he was considered socially awkward.

This person truly doesn't care about anyone's opinion; they only care about themselves. Most people couldn't handle running laps around the village in such a bizarre manner.

However, Yu Mikami came with a purpose.

So he didn't say much, but silently followed in the footsteps of Matt and his son, running normally and sweating alongside them.

One lap...

Two laps...

Konoha Village is quite large. If you include the training grounds outside the residential area, the diameter of the entire village is tens of kilometers. Even if you don't run right along the edge of the village, one lap is equivalent to two full marathons. Ten laps would be even more incredible.

Yu Mikami originally thought that adding 8 points to his constitution was enough.

But after running four or five laps, he began to feel his breathing become heavy, as if his lungs were filled with scalding sand, each breath accompanied by a burning pain. Sweat rolled down his skin, only to be evaporated by the sun.

"Seventh lap! That's how youth is meant to burn out completely, Yu! Kai!"

Might Guy's signature gruff voice boomed in my ears. He still supported his body with his strong arms, moving forward upside down, and his speed was not much slower than that of Mikami Yuu, who was running upright.

"Yes, Dad!"

Might Guy was also running upside down, but much slower than Might Dai. He was already covered in sweat, but he was still gritting his teeth and persevering. After all, he had been trained by this kind of "youthful training method" since he was a child.

at last……

After staggering through the ninth lap—the fourteenth for the Might and Might family—Yu Mikami could no longer continue. His vision blurred, his steps faltered, and he nearly collapsed. Finally, he had to stop and say to Might Day beside him:

"Huff...huff...Uncle Dai, Kai...I need to rest for a bit..."

thump--!

Mighty performed a front flip, landing steadily in front of Yu Mikami. He grabbed Yu's shoulder and exclaimed in surprise, "Yu! Your progress is truly amazing! I remember a month ago, you could barely keep up with us for two laps, and now you can manage nine!"

"Phew... I can't stay at the bottom forever... I've been practicing extra lately..."

Yu Mikami wiped the sweat from his face and gave a bright smile.
