Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

That noon.

Yu Mikami, having finished another medical training session, walked out of the classroom with Rin Nohara, Obito Uchiha, and Hyakusō, who was several years ahead of them. They saw several stretchers being hurriedly pushed in the corridor, with ninjas lying on them, their bodies wrapped in bandages and their faces contorted in pain.

The air was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant.

"Recently, it seems like more and more wounded people are being brought to the hospital, and their injuries are generally quite serious..."

Nohara Rin gripped the strap of the medical kit tightly with her small hands and said softly.

"I heard it's because the friction with the Land of Lightning has escalated, and there are also some unknown people stirring up trouble in the Land of Wind to the south, with border outposts being attacked frequently... It might get even worse in the future."

Bai Cao was also a little worried.

Unlike Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin, Hyakusō is already a formal ninja. While receiving training, she is also responsible for assisting the formal medical ninjas.

With the increasing number of injured people in the hospital and a shortage of manpower, he, a newly promoted medical ninja, has also become very busy, sometimes not even having time to attend training courses.

At this time.

Obito puffed out his chest defiantly and clenched his fist: "Hmph! It's just a war, what's there to be afraid of! Once I awaken my Sharingan, I'll definitely drive all those bad guys away! I'll show them how powerful Konoha and the Uchiha are!"

"Lin, don't worry, I will definitely protect you!"

"..."

Nohara Rin opened her mouth, but said nothing.

Although she thought Obito's statement was rather naive, he meant well, so she couldn't say anything.

Yu Mikami, standing next to him, rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that by the time he awakened his Sharingan, the Third Shinobi World War would almost be over.

Even assuming we disregard the "old man" behind Obito, the prerequisite for awakening the Sharingan is sacrificing a teammate, which inherently conflicts with protecting Rin Nohara. Therefore, Obito's promise was destined to be nothing but empty talk.

but……

Obito only needs to think about when to awaken his Sharingan.

But Yu Mikami has more to consider.

As everyone knows, in the ninja world, you need power, background, and bloodline to survive.

Mikami Yu doesn't have a bloodline, but he has a system that can make up for it.

But we'll have to think about the other two.

Becoming stronger through the hidden system takes time, but the ninja world, with its impending storm, won't give him that much time to develop peacefully. So before he grows strong enough to stand tall in the sky, it's best to find a powerful ally to protect him from the storm.

During this period, the most powerful figures were undoubtedly the Three Ninjas.

Yu Mikami initially agreed to attend the medical training course with Rin Nohara, perhaps hoping to use the opportunity to bump into Tsunade and then try to establish a relationship with her. Unfortunately, he's been here for so long and hasn't even caught a glimpse of Tsunade.

As a second choice, Jiraiya and Orochimaru are also acceptable.

Let's not talk about the former.

Although Orochimaru is wicked, strictly speaking, he's quite good to his students. Whether it's Mitarashi Anko... cough, I misspoke, I meant Anko, or Kabuto and Sasuke, he teaches them all diligently and is truly generous with good things. Although he likes to place cursed seals on people, it's fine if he doesn't use them indiscriminately; in fact, they can even help with weight loss.

But these two, one busy traveling the world and the other engrossed in biological research, are equally rare to see.

Therefore,

Yu Mikami then turned his attention to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He planned to demonstrate enough "talent" in this graduation exam, along with his essays on the "Will of Fire," to make Hiruzen Sarutobi take notice of his talent and then personally arrange a path for him, finding a reliable Jonin to be his teacher.

However, there is a potential risk in doing this: it could attract the attention of a certain unnamed 5.5th generation Kage. Kakashi is a prime example of this.

Therefore, we need to think ahead about possible scenarios and prepare contingency plans.

"I'm stuffed."

Inside Ichiraku Ramen.

Mikami Yu put down his rice bowl.

Rin Nohara and Obito, who were standing next to them, also wiped their mouths at the same time.

Next, Rin Nohara went to the Konoha Library to look up information, Obito returned to the Uchiha clan's territory to train, and Yu Mikami went to the training ground on the west side of the village to start his daily routine of cleaning up the nooks and crannies.

Since reaching maximum affinity with the Transformation Technique, Mikami Yu has reduced the time he spends practicing this technique. He only greets the user each day, practices symbolically for about ten minutes, and then focuses his main energy on other ninjutsu.

The highest priority skills are the clone technique, the substitution technique, and the healing technique.

Secondly, there are turbulent water waves.

—In this graduation exam, Asuma is the most likely candidate to compete with Mikami Yu for first place. Since his opponent's chakra nature is fire and wind, Mikami Yu decides to focus on training water release techniques to counter his fire release.

Of course,

More importantly, "Water Chaos Wave" requires 16 points of affinity to advance to the next level, while Great Fireball requires 21 points. Both are C-rank ninjutsu, so their difficulty should be similar. From a cost-effectiveness perspective, it's naturally better to prioritize the former, which is more likely to advance in a short time.

As for the "Eight Gates Formation"...

Yu Mikami is a little intimidated by this thing.

Every day when we meet, the first thing we do is run a hundred laps around Konoha Village. After that, we rest for three to five minutes, and then we start another twenty-kilometer off-road race. Who can stand that?

Only a training maniac like Might Guy, who trains like crazy as long as he doesn't die, could handle it.

Yu Mikami had considered using the Transformation Technique to transform himself into Might Guy first, and then practicing the Eight Gates. However, maintaining the Transformation Technique itself consumes chakra, and starting intense training under these circumstances would be like adding extra burden to himself, which would be counterproductive.

Therefore,

He could only try to avoid her for now, preferring to improve his physical condition before making a move.

By the way,

In the Corner System, the difficulty of conquering different ninjutsu varies. The earliest "Transformation Jutsu" only took a little over a month to raise the affinity from 10 to 100; however, "Great Fireball Jutsu," which entered the conquest list on the same day, only has an affinity of around 50 now.

Although Yuka Mikami spent different amounts of time on these two techniques, it's clear that the Transformation Technique increased her favorability faster.

The "Eight Gates Formation" is even more obvious.

As an A-level forbidden technique and a "superior target" recognized by the corner system, this thing's favorability is extremely difficult to increase, often requiring several rounds of [dialogue] and [practice] to increase by 1 point.

But it's understandable.

Judging from the transformation technique, a maxed-out favorability rating likely means he can open all eight gates. So, it would be a bit unreasonable if he could perfectly master a ninjutsu that even training fanatics like Might and Might spend one or two decades to fully master, all in just one or two months.

Fortunately, the favorability rating won't be negatively affected.

So going a little slower isn't a big problem.
