Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu

puff!puff!

The water droplets condensed into two water clones identical to the original body, appearing on either side of Mikami Yu. The three of them stood slightly apart, a few meters apart, in a triangular formation, their three pairs of eyes alertly sensing the surroundings and the tremors beneath their feet.

"Here it is!"

A water clone suddenly pointed towards a tiny bump on the ground to the left.

Almost simultaneously, Kakashi's figure shot out from the ground behind the water creature like a cheetah! His kunai thrust straight at the water creature's heart!

call out!

Just as Kakashi launched his surprise attack, Mikami Yu flicked his wrist, as if he had anticipated Kakashi's position. Three kunai, accompanied by sharp whistling sounds, shot with perfect accuracy toward Kakashi's neck! The timing and angle were just right!

"cut……"

Kakashi frowned.

Actually, he didn't intentionally target the water clones. It's just that he doesn't have the Byakugan or Sharingan, so he couldn't distinguish which of the three Mikami Yus was the real one. Therefore, he could only randomly choose a lucky audience member to test the waters first.

But to my surprise, Yu Mikami's true form reacted so quickly, as if it had eyes in the back of its head.

The water clone, with only 10% of his original chakra, was not a threat, but if this attack hit and injured his wrist, it would severely impact his combat ability. Therefore, he had to temporarily change his strategy, abandoning the water clone that was within reach, and first try to block the incoming kunai.

Just this brief delay—

The attacked water clone, along with another water clone, pounced simultaneously! One tightly grabbed Kakashi's right arm holding the kunai, while the other locked his legs from behind!

Meanwhile, Yu Mikami's true form had already completed the hand seals:

"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"

"We succeeded!!"

The next shout came from Obito, who was buried underground. He was staring wide-eyed at the fight between Mikami Yu and Kakashi, as if he were the one who had made the move.

Kakashi was genuinely flustered at this moment. He suddenly exerted his strength, and his chakra exploded, shattering the two water clones with two "poof" sounds. Then, in a hurry, he drew the White Fang short sword from his back and slashed forward!

Swish!

A flash of light!

Originally, this strike should have shattered the fireball, but those few dancing phoenix flames seemed to possess a life of their own, nimbly twisting and leaping, narrowly avoiding the blade! They continued to smash towards Kakashi!

"?!"

Kakashi's expression changed slightly. He rolled awkwardly to the side, simultaneously forming three hand seals: "Water Release: Water Chaos Wave!"

Whoops!

A stream of water spurted from his mouth, barely extinguishing the fireballs that were chasing after him.

But Yu Mikami, who had used "Partial Transformation: Might Guy's Body," had already arrived in front of him, and Kakashi, who was still not in a stable position, was about to be stabbed by the kunai! The latter swung his White Fang short sword to deal with it, and a series of dense, rain-like clanging sounds of metal clashing, accompanied by flying sparks, exploded in an instant!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Two figures collided, separated, and collided again at high speed in the center of the open space!

Although it is true that an inch longer is an inch stronger, and Kakashi's swordsmanship is systematic, its exquisite and sharpness far surpasses that of Mikami Yu, the incident happened in a hurry, and Mikami Yu seized the initiative, launching a series of fierce attacks that were relentless, and for a time they were evenly matched!

[Ding! High-quality potential target detected: "Hatake Sword Technique"!]

"?!"

Yu Mikami's eyelids twitched, and Kakashi seized the opportunity, launching a fierce attack that immediately turned the tide. In the midst of the perilous situation, Yu Mikami used the Substitution Jutsu, instantly returning to his original position, dozens of meters away from Kakashi, and took a moment to catch his breath.

Kakashi finished his breathing exercise even faster, flipped his wrist to hide the White Fang short sword behind his back, and began to rapidly form hand seals at a dazzling speed. In just a few seconds, he had already formed more than twenty hand seals!

"Forehead……"

Mikami Yu's eyelids twitched: What kind of ninjutsu is this? It requires so many hand seals? Could it be that Water Release technique with 44 hand seals?

That's enough!

Minato Namikaze appeared between the two, his smile gentle, and raised his hand to signal a ceasefire.

The exercise has achieved its purpose; there's no need to continue. There will be plenty of opportunities for future sparring and practice.

Upon receiving the order, Kakashi instantly stopped forming hand seals, his sharp gaze returned to its previous lifeless expression, and he silently put his hands in his pockets.

Yuya Mikami breathed a sigh of relief and deactivated the "partial transformation".

"Yu-kun, are you alright?"

Nohara Rin brought Obito over, looking at Mikami Yu with a worried expression, and then at Kakashi not far away.

"fine."

Next,

Minato Namikaze began his summary: "The exercise is now over. Yu's battle plan itself was sound, and his tactics in the fight against Kakashi were brilliant. However, the execution of the plan requires the support of reliable teammates."

"Obito, your Fireball Jutsu was reckless and direct, without considering the positions of your teammates or the subsequent changes, and was easily countered; Rin, your shuriken cover was not strong enough, and your close combat ability urgently needs to be improved. After Yu came to your rescue, you were unable to regroup and provide effective support in time."

Obito lowered his head in shame and frantically picked at the mud on his head.

Nohara Rin nodded earnestly: "Yes, Minato-sensei, I understand."

Minato Namikaze looked at Yu Mikami one last time: "Yu, your personal qualities are excellent. Although you don't know many ninjutsu, you use them very well, almost comparable to Kakashi. What you lack is practical experience and taijutsu combat ability. You can receive targeted training in the future."

"However, I also need to remind you that ninjas operate as a team, and an individual's weakness is also the team's weakness. How to compensate for your teammates' shortcomings and leverage the team's strength is an important task for you going forward. When facing a real enemy, any opening can be fatal."

"I see."

Yu Mikami nodded earnestly in agreement.

Although he had been deliberately distancing himself from Obito to avoid being stabbed in the back at any moment, now that they were on the same team, there was no way around it. Even if Obito were to turn evil in the future, for now, he could only play the role of a good teammate.

Anyway, the real crisis will be the Kannabi Bridge incident a few years later. If all else fails, we can find a way to avoid it and not participate in this mission.

After the comments were finished.

Minato Namikaze paused, then flashed his signature warm smile again: "Alright, we've perfectly achieved the goal of this exercise. Starting tomorrow, our team will be officially formed. The missions and training won't be easy, so..."

"Let's take a half-day off today. Let's go to BBQ Q together later. It's on me, so eat as much as you want."

"oh!!"
