Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

Without further ado, Yu Mikami and Kai collided instantly!

boom! boom! boom!

The sounds of fists and feet clashing rang out crisply in the morning mist.

Compared to Hyuga Himon's Gentle Fist, Guy's Steel Fist attacks were significantly more ferocious. Every punch and kick carried astonishing power and speed, like a storm crashing down. Mikami Yu, on the other hand, was more agile, repeatedly anticipating, dodging, and blocking, occasionally seizing an opening to counterattack.

boom--!

Yu Mikami delivered a sweeping kick to Kai's blocking arm. Kai only grunted, staggered slightly, and then regained his balance. Almost without pausing, he twisted his waist and swung his fist, slamming it heavily into Yu Mikami's shoulder, causing a tingling sensation.

"hiss……"

Mikami Yu's eyes flashed: "I have to say, as expected of the 'Azure Beast,' its resilience and strength are truly unparalleled. Even after I activated 'Kaimen,' I couldn't suppress it on a physical level, which is absurd..."

It seems that there is still room for further optimization in the move "Partial Transformation: Might Guy's Body".

Another dozen or so moves passed.

Kai seized the opportunity, let out a loud shout, and delivered a powerful twisting kick!

"Konoha Whirlwind!"

Swish-!

Yu Mikami's figure vanished from his spot in an instant, reappearing seven or eight meters to his side and behind. Only a stone fell from mid-air and was kicked away by Kai, crashing into a large tree not far away, causing the branches and leaves to tremble.

"Haha, that's awesome!"

Kai pulled his legs back and stood still, grinning to reveal a set of white teeth: "Yu! I know you're going easy on me, you haven't used any abilities other than physical techniques. Next time! Next time I'll definitely unleash my full power and have a good fight with you when you go all out!"

"Okay, I'll definitely do it next time."

As the battle ended.

Yu Mikami saw a text box appear:

[Eight Gates Formation: Hmm... just an average battle, not as intense as I imagined. But considering how hard you worked this morning, and even helped me in a fight, I'll let you off the hook for today. I'll come back to train with you later!]

[Eight Gates Formation Affection +1, Current Affection: 6/100 (Unfamiliar)]

"...It's really tough to raise this favorability rating."

Yu Mikami silently complained.

Speaking of which, Yu Mikami has always found it a bit strange that the Hyuga clan's "Gentle Fist" can be detected by the system, but their "Steel Fist" cannot.

He figured it might be a matter of completeness.

"Gentle Fist" is a complete boxing system that emphasizes attacking the enemy's acupoints, damaging the opponent's meridian system and internal organs, and is highly technical.

"Steel Fist" is just a general term, referring to a group of fist techniques that attach chakra to the limbs to increase attack power. It is part of "Konoha Fluid Techniques", so it was not included in the "beautiful girl" category by the system.

However, "super strength punch" should count.

If I ever have the chance to get in touch with Tsunade, I might try to learn from her.

……

morning.

After bidding farewell to the passionate Might and Might Guy, Yu Mikami arrived at the training ground on the west side of the village and practiced ninjutsu by a clear stream.

He took a deep breath, his hands moved swiftly, and he rapidly circulated the chakra within his body.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Chaos Technique!"

boom!

call!

A nearly human-sized orange-red fireball appeared alternately in mid-air with a surging torrent of water, sometimes whipping up large waves on the river surface, and sometimes scorching the water into misty steam that drifted around.

Now that the exams are over, Yu Mikami is no longer focusing on power and size in his practice. Instead, he is carefully sensing how the characteristics of "Spirit of Fire" and "Dancer of Water" enhance the ninjutsu itself.

Especially the latter.

When he deliberately controlled the water flow, shaping it into different forms such as vortexes, spheres, and showerheads as he released it, the chakra consumption of the "Water Chaos Technique" noticeably underwent some subtle changes. It seemed that the latter itself was watching him.

After a training session ended.

The favorability ratings for Fireball and Water Wave each increased by about 2 points.

This is the end.

Water Chaos has successfully advanced to the next level:

【Water Chaos Technique (Affection: 50/100 (Intimacy))】

(Having received stage rewards twice: Constitution +2, Trait: Water Dancer: Your Water Release has more artistic possibilities. When released, if you can create an artistic form that satisfies "Water Wave Technique", chakra consumption is reduced by 40%)

Yes, 30% in the first phase, 40% in the second phase...

It seems that the maximum value might be 60%.

For "Water Chaos Wave" alone, reducing chakra consumption by two-thirds has limited use.

but……

If we could give her skins with "Water Dragon Bullet" and "Water Wave," that would be a different story.

In addition, there's the theoretically unlimited potential to increase one's physical constitution...

Perhaps one day, Yu Mikami will be able to use the same "Sea Release" technique as Tobirama Senju.

In contrast, the Fireball ability's affinity level doesn't increase very quickly after reaching 60.

I wonder if it's because I didn't give a gift, or because I didn't trigger a special event like with the Three Bodies Technique...

Mikami Yu stopped to rest, sitting cross-legged on a rock by the stream. While recovering his chakra, he focused his consciousness into the Corner System and opened the dialogue bubble with [Great Fireball Technique].

[Yu Mikami: Kouka, I have a question for you. Do you know about the "Phoenix Flower Fire Technique"?]

[Fireball Jutsu: Hmm? Phoenix Flower... You're like a little sister from my clan, what's wrong?]

[Yu Mikami: It's nothing, I just heard the name from somewhere else... What's your relationship like?]

[Fireball Jutsu: Relationship? So-so! That girl is too playful and always dresses up extravagantly, but she doesn't know that inner qualities are the most important. Only uncultured nouveau riche use fancy clothes to package themselves.]

"Forehead……"

Yuko Mikami said it felt like the saying "sour grapes" – someone who can't have the grapes.

I wonder if he chose "Great Fire Wall" for Great Fireball, and the latter would instantly change its attitude and become a "nouveau riche"...

At this time.

Another ninja who loves to join in the fun has appeared:

[Clone Technique (Water Clone Technique Form): Oh my, isn't this Miss Fireball Jutsu? You've looked so tired after just two days? All that talk about inner beauty being important, it's just that you don't have any new clothes to wear.]

[Clone Technique: But I doubt the mistress will send you any gifts. After all, your reputation isn't exactly stellar. Although you may look glamorous on the outside, do you know what people outside call you behind your back?]

[Fireball Jutsu: Shut up! Don't say that!]

[Clone Technique: Hehe, people call you—the "Kindness Technique"! Because you can never hit anyone, that's why you're kind.]

[Fireball Jutsu: Aaaaaah! You clone jutsu, you jerk! I'm going to burn you to ashes!!! (The flames on her body surge violently, showing extreme rage)]

"..."

Yuu Mikami was speechless for a moment.

Looking at the clone technique and the fireball technique, he thought they were truly a pair of star-crossed lovers.

Of all the techniques, the two of them are the most active and love to bicker the most, which sometimes makes him a little worried that the Great Fireball Technique might cause his favorability towards them to drop due to the teasing of the Shadow Clone Technique...

[Ding! Special event keywords detected, triggering a time-limited task!]
