Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

Obito was the first to notice Kakashi: "It really is you, Kakashi! You haven't been to the village for months! Honestly, you think you're so great just because you're a Chunin? You come back and don't even bother to say hello to me!"

"……Fool."

Kakashi Hatake, dressed in a dark green Konoha ninja vest and wearing a black mask, glanced at Obito with listless, dead-fish eyes before turning his gaze to Yu Mikami, Rin Nohara, and the others, scrutinizing them: "Is everyone here?"

"I probably don't need to introduce myself, everyone knows me. I'm here today on the orders of the Hokage to serve as a special examiner for this graduation exam..."

"The examiner?"

Upon hearing this, Nohara Rin, Yuhi Kurenai, and the others were all taken aback.

This……

Everyone knew that Kakashi had been promoted to Chunin. However, the other party was, after all, a classmate who had entered the academy in the same year. Seeing his former classmate become an examiner was a somewhat strange feeling.

Only Might Guy, disregarding all that, jumped out and said, "Oh! I get it!"

"So, the content of this exam is actually a challenge for you, right? Alright, Kakashi! My Leaf Whirlwind has been itching for a long time, let me go first!"

"Why? I was here first!"

Obito was not to be outdone.

"...You two idiots, shut up! Let me finish!"

Kakashi shouted a reprimand, glanced at the school building not far away, then opened a booklet and continued:

"This exam will be a free-for-all. Each class will be divided into two groups and will engage in an attack and defense battle around the high platform in the center of the arena. The time limit is fifteen minutes. The group that captures the high platform at the end will win. Mr. Oki, Ms. Himura, and I will score you based on your performance in the battle."

"During the competition, you may use any means necessary, including the ninjutsu and secret techniques you possess. If you encounter an insurmountable danger, your two teachers and I will come to your rescue, but that would also mean you would lose your qualification to continue the competition..."

"Now, I will begin reading the group assignments..."

"..."

Yu Mikami didn't speak, but glanced out of the corner of his eye in the direction Kakashi had just looked. He vaguely saw two figures standing on the rooftop of the teaching building, but they were backlit and too far away to see clearly.

At this moment, is the person standing at a distance watching the battle... Hiruzen Sarutobi?

Also.

The top scorer in this graduation exam will be awarded a prize by Hiruzen Sarutobi, who will naturally want to come and see.

Yu Mikami has also made preparations to stand out from the crowd.

To be honest, he found the exam format quite interesting, though he wasn't sure if it was part of the original story or a butterfly effect caused by his presence...

soon.

The list has been read aloud.

Yu Mikami and Obito were assigned to the defensive side, while Rin Nohara was on the offensive side.

It was clear that Obito was quite upset about not being grouped with Rin Nohara, but he still rubbed his hands together excitedly and said, "Rin, don't worry, I will definitely defeat everyone, take first place in this exam, receive the Hokage's reward, and then give it to you!"

"...Thank you so much."

Nohara Rin pursed her lips, then said earnestly, "Yu-kun, and Obito-kun, I will give it my all and show you what I've learned. I hope you won't hold back."

"it is good."

Yu Mikami nodded.

the other side.

Several defensive players who were relatively close had already huddled together, forming an alliance and discussing their tactics for the upcoming match.

"Hey, I have a great idea!"

"Fifteen minutes is quite a long time. If we defend too strictly from the beginning, we'll probably be worn down by the attackers very quickly. So, we might as well give them the high ground first, let them become complacent and arrogant. And complacency is bound to lead to defeat, then we'll definitely win!"

"Great strategy! But I'd like to make a slight modification. How about we all use the Transformation Jutsu to transform into the Hokage? That way, if they dare to attack us, it'll be disrespectful to the Hokage; if they don't attack us, it'll be considered an automatic surrender! What do you think?"

"?"

"..."

Yu Mikami was speechless.

The wisdom of Konoha is truly everywhere. If he hears these stupid remarks again, he'll go deaf!

present.

Mikami Yu carefully observed the lineups of both sides.

It's clear that the distribution of participants in this exam was not very equitable.

The attacking side is clearly stronger, with not only Sarutobi Asuma and Hyuga Himon, two members of a powerful clan, Might Guy, a master of taijutsu, but also Nara Madoka, a strategist.

As a descendant of the Nara clan, the latter's intellect far surpasses that of ordinary students. In past academic exams, Mikami Yuu consistently ranked first, and he was almost always second. Although he couldn't devise ingenious tactics due to his age, he was more than capable of handling this situation.

On the other hand, the defending side...

Obito, Kurenai Yuhi, Ebisu, Tobitake, Mizuki...

After looking around, Yu Mikami realized that he was the key player in the group.

Strictly speaking, Obito and Kurenai Yuhi are also descendants of ninja clans, and one of them is actually an Uchiha. But... is this allocation plan definitely not rigged? Or is it because he got first place in the last exam, so he needs to be matched with some weak teammates to balance the strength?

Since that's the case, Mikami Yu didn't waste any time considering team strategies. He just kept a close eye on Asuma and Hyuga Himon on the other side, and silently pondered tactics in his mind.

To win this battle, a showdown with them is probably inevitable, and it might even be a two-on-one fight.

That being the case...

Then let's take this opportunity to test ourselves against these ninja clan members and see what level we've reached.

soon.

Led by teachers Daiki and Himura, the group of students entered through several different entrances around the venue.

Yu Mikami and the others arrived at the top of the platform and observed the terrain from above.

Asma and the others were scattered around.

After a brief silence.

A whistle blew:

"The exam begins!"

"...Leaf Whirlwind!!!"

Mitekai charged forward immediately, covering dozens of meters in the blink of an eye. He took a step and leaped up in front of the earthen slope near the platform, his whole body springing up like a spring. He then delivered a whirlwind kick to the student standing there!

"ah!!"

The student had just raised his arm to try to block when he was kicked in the chest and sent flying with a "thud"!

"Byakugan, activate!"

Hinata Himon also broke free from the crowd and, together with two other students, charged straight towards the direction where Mikami Yu was!

"...Obito, you go and deal with Might Guy!"

Yu Mikami spoke very quickly.

"Huh? Me?"

Obito was stunned for a moment, and his first reaction was to refute.

Kurenai, however, silently pulled out a kunai and charged towards Might Guy: "I'll handle this!"
