Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

I'm sparring with Mikoto Uchiha and asking her some questions.

In the afternoon, I sparred with Uzuki Yugao, who had skipped class and asked for leave to come.

In the days that followed, he finally understood the meaningful smile that Uzuki Yugao had given when she left.

Good heavens, he had never seen such 'knife skills' before.

At first, Uzuki Yugao was relatively normal; she would practice her swordplay, take a break, and then continue practicing.

As time went on, her movements became irregular, and then…

"Senior Xingyun, the way you're holding the knife is wrong. Although it's easier to exert force at the beginning, it will damage your joints. Come on, let me teach you the correct way to hold the knife."

"Senior Xingyun, you're still not doing it right. Come on, let me show you how I hold a knife. Come on, feel it."

"Senior, you're so strong, my hands are numb from shaking."

"Senior, you've improved so quickly."

"Nebula, you're amazing!"

Shenyue Xingyun had considered stopping it.

Is it impolite to address someone like that?

Uzuki Yugao's answer was reasonable and well-founded: "Politeness?"

"I thought it would be more affectionate to call you that."

"Besides, why should we be polite to each other?" After saying that, she continued as before.

She described it as just a friendly sparring session, but the level of that sparring had already surpassed that of Nohara Rin and was very close to that of Kanako and the others.

Busy days go by quickly.

One morning, Shingetsu Seiun, Sarutobi Asuma, and a few others sparred with Uchiha Mikoto at her training ground.

After Sarutobi Asuma came Kurenai Yuhi, and after Kurenai Yuhi came him.

Over the course of a few days, his progress and combat rhythm improved significantly, his movements became fluid and his attacks swift and powerful.

Even Kurenai Yuhi could sense Shingetsu Seiun's progress.

"Asuma, Nebula's taijutsu has improved so quickly." Kurenai Yuhi exclaimed, watching Nebula sparring with Mikoto Uchiha in the arena.

Asuma glanced at it and said, "I don't think so. It's just so-so."

Kurenai Yuhi said, "Didn't you notice?"

"Ms. Mikoto is much more serious than before."

Sarutobi Asuma didn't take it seriously: "He must have exhausted Misaka-sensei's stamina just now from playing with the two of us. Think about it, how could a newly graduated genin possibly make Misaka-sensei take him seriously?"

As the sun sets, her brows furrow gradually.

Looking at the stubborn Sarutobi Asuma, she couldn't help but say, "Asuma, is it so hard to admit that your teammates are good?"

"We are partners, and we will be carrying out missions and facing dangers together. Don't keep holding a grudge against Nebula."

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Asuma felt a surge of anger. However, under Kurenai Yuhi's disapproving gaze, he could only suppress his rage and stubbornly insist, "I didn't..."

Kurenai Yuhi realized she had been a bit harsh with her words, so she softened her tone and said, "That's good. Asuma, I hope my teammates are people who unite with their comrades, and my friends are people with broad minds."

"Sometimes, you really need to work on your temper."

Sarutobi Asuma lowered his head, his face flushed.

He felt ashamed and resentful. But in front of Kurenai, he suppressed his emotions.

Hong likes broad-minded people, so she'll just ignore Shen Yue Xingyun for now. Anyway, she'll have plenty of opportunities to prove herself.

Hong will eventually realize that she is the best!

"Bang!" Their feet collided, and the two fighters retreated.

After regaining his balance, Shingetsu Seiun wanted to go forward again, but Uchiha Mikoto stopped him.

"All right."

That's all for today.

Upon hearing this, Shenyue Xingyun relaxed and took off her gloves while panting heavily.

As Mikoto Uchiha calmed her racing heart from the exercise, she said, "The three of you have all made rapid progress lately."

"The special training ends here. You will begin receiving missions tomorrow."

The three of them looked up abruptly, and Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai exchanged glances, both seeing the expectation in each other's eyes.

Chapter 48 The Sarcastic Obito

The morning sun shone on the grass.

The condensed dew slowly evaporated in the sunlight, a gentle breeze blew, and the fresh smell of cow dung lingered in the air.

"Damn it, why did I have to do this?!" Sarutobi Asuma threw down the cleaning tools in his hand, fuming.

Shenyue Xingyun straightened up and wiped the fine sweat from her forehead.

"Otherwise, do you think any high-level mission would be assigned to a newly graduated genin?"

Sarutobi Asuma angrily said, "I've had enough! All I do every day is clean cow dung and sewers. That's not why I became a ninja!"

Kurenai looked somewhat troubled, but still advised, "Asuma, stop complaining. Use the time you would spend complaining to work so we can finish sooner."

"Moreover, the nebula cleanup is already progressing faster than yours."

"Red, whose side are you on?" Sarutobi Asuma asked with a resentful look in his eyes.

“I’m not on either side,” Kurenai said. “If we don’t finish by the morning, we won’t have time to find Uncle Ito’s lost Akita dog this afternoon.”

"Maybe that stupid dog will go home by itself this afternoon." Even so, Sarutobi Asuma reluctantly picked up his tools and continued cleaning up the cow dung.

Seeing his expression, Kurenai shook her head and said nothing.

After several days of missions, her impression of Asma continued to decline.

Not only is he impatient when things happen, but his attitude towards work is also very negative.

In contrast, her impression of the Divine Moon Nebula improved once again.

During this period, whether we were getting along or collaborating to complete tasks, the other party was not only gentle and easy to communicate with, but also offered very pertinent ideas and suggestions.

Even when Asuma provokes him, he only occasionally responds with a few sharp words when talking to Sarutobi Asuma. He remains calm and composed during missions and takes on a lot of work on his own initiative.

She looks much more mature than Asuma.

Hmm... While I don't particularly value looks, she's still much more pleasing to the eye than Asuma.

Both jobs were dirty and tiring, but Asuma was completely disheveled and even looked a bit pathetic, while Shingetsu Seiun was different.

His rolled-up sleeves were neat and tidy, and his collar and face were clean. If he had time at noon, he would make a special trip back to wash himself. He didn't have any of the typical male body odor.

No wonder so many girls in the class like him.

After a morning of work, the task of cleaning up the cow dung on the pasture was finally completed, with Shenyue Xingyun completing nearly half of the work by herself.

Kurenai Yuhi saw it all.

After a short rest at noon, the three of them resumed their search for the dog in the afternoon.

Konoha isn't too big or too small, so searching aimlessly is definitely not a good idea. Sarutobi Asuma suggested, "Konoha is so big, we can't possibly search it all in a short time. Let's split up and search."

"Nebula, you search in the village, and Hong and I will go outside the village, okay?"

Seeing Sarutobi Asuma's obvious ulterior motives, Shinzuki Seiun smiled faintly.

“I have no problem with searching for me separately. However, searching aimlessly like this is too inefficient.”

"Uncle Ito's Akita got lost on the south side of the village. Given a dog's habits, it wouldn't have gone too far."

"After excluding woodlands where large animals may be found, and areas where food is scarce, we can focus on food streets, garbage bins, and areas where people gather."

The analysis was logical and clear, and Sarutobi Asuma couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he just scoffed softly.

The south side of the village is one of the bustling areas of Konoha.

Shenyue Xingyun walked into the crowd.

It was as if a drop of boiling oil had fallen into water.

It's like a magnet in a magnetic field experiment coming into a pile of scattered iron filings.

The crowd automatically separated.

The chattering young women and wives fell silent, staring wide-eyed at the Divine Moon Nebula.

Everyone was unable to look away.

The men nearby noticed something amiss, turned around and saw the Divine Moon Nebula. They looked surprised and quickly left the spot.

So cool!

The men in the village felt very uncomfortable standing next to someone like that.

Shenyue Xingyun was already used to this situation, and while keeping her expression unchanged, she tried her best not to speak.

This reduces the likelihood of women crowding around.

Kurenai Yuhi, standing to the side, seemed unfazed. Like everyone else, she lingered on Shingetsu Seiun's face for a moment before turning away.

Well, I'm not someone who judges people by their looks.

Sarutobi Asuma had a look on his face as if he had eaten shit.

"Let's hurry up, the mission isn't finished yet."

Shenyue Xingyun didn't say anything.

Wherever they went, the crowds would quiet down and focus their attention on Shenyue Xingyun.

"Damn it!" Sarutobi Asuma cursed under his breath.

The group searched for a while but still couldn't find any trace of the Akita Inu.

But I bumped into a few acquaintances.
