"Hahaha!"
Seeing his daughter's anxious expression, Hiroshi Nohara's worry dissipated, replaced by a hearty laugh. He patted Yu Mikami's shoulder forcefully, the pat heavy with trust and expectation. "Good lad! With your promise, I'm relieved!"
"I'm leaving now, see you in a few days."
With that, Hiroshi Nohara slung his bag over his shoulder, turned around, and strode toward the assembly point at the village entrance, ready to head to the front lines with the others.
Rin Nohara stared in the direction her father had disappeared, her eyes slightly red, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes.
Yu Mikami glanced at the girl beside him, let out a soft breath, and said gently, "Don't worry too much, Rin. Uncle Hiroshi is an experienced ninja; he's crossed more bridges than we've walked roads. He'll be fine."
"Besides, we probably won't stay in the village for too long. Maybe in a few days or a week or two, we'll be sent back to the front lines to provide support. Maybe we'll even reunite with Uncle Hiroshi on the battlefield then."
"...Yes, you're right."
Rin Nohara nodded vigorously, trying to suppress her sorrow and pull herself together: "The war must continue, and we must strive to become stronger so that we can survive on the battlefield! Hmm... Shall we go find Obito this afternoon and train together?"
"it is good."
Yu Mikami nodded slightly, then added, "Let's call Asuma and the others too. Everyone's a Chunin now, so we'll probably be on the battlefield soon. We've got battlefield experience, so let's give them a heads-up."
Nohara Rin had no objection to this.
We're all classmates, we see each other all the time, so it's no problem to help each other out.
Hmm... it would be better if that red-eyed girl didn't get so close to Mikami Yu.
That noon, the two ate lunch at home and rested for a while before heading out together to the Uchiha clan's territory to find someone and begin planning their joint training.
……
at the same time.
The Mountain Prison, located near the Valley of the End.
Madara Uchiha sat languidly beneath the Gedo Mazo, reviewing the information he had obtained from Black Zetsu.
"...Hmph, this brat named Yahiko is so naive, aspiring to create peace without resorting to extreme force? How laughable, just like that idiot, always harboring unrealistic fantasies about this world."
That's right.
At this time, the Akatsuki organization was still led by Yahiko. It was established after Jiraiya completed his three-year training and left Amegakure, and it had only been developing for about three years.
Although Yahiko's ideals attracted a group of like-minded people to join, giving the organization some fame in Amegakure, it was still not significant enough in the entire ninja world. Their actions were mostly minor and insignificant; if it weren't for Nagato, Madara wouldn't have bothered to even look at them.
at this time.
Black Zetsu asked from the side, "Lord Madara, should we get rid of this guy? With him around, Nagato might not be able to serve as the leader of Akatsuki, which would be detrimental to your 'Eye of the Moon Plan'."
"No need."
Madara Uchiha shook his head, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes: "Such naive idealism is destined to fail in this cruel ninja world. We don't need to lift a finger; reality will teach them the most profound lesson, and that will be the opportunity to reshape Nagato's worldview."
"..."
Hei remained silent.
After a brief silence.
Madara Uchiha spoke again: "By the way, how's that white-haired brat from Konoha doing lately?"
"Reporting to Lord Madara, he has recently been nominated as a Special Jonin, and together with Minato Namikaze and others, he rescued a member of the Uzumaki clan from Kusagakure. He was rewarded by Konoha with several new ninjutsu. Moreover, it seems he has gained Tsunade's approval and was taught some medical ninjutsu by her..."
how to say……
The abilities of Black Zetsu and White Zetsu are indeed a bit overpowered when used for intelligence gathering.
Especially when someone is being given special attention, it's practically impossible to hide information unless you go to places like the Three Holy Lands to train secretly.
even……
"This is a drink that brat made with Tsunade. It's been quite popular in Konoha and the Land of Fire lately. I specifically asked White Zetsu to bring back a few bottles for Lord Madara to take a look at."
As Black Zetsu spoke, he handed over several glass bottles with leaf-shaped logos, which were the once-popular "Konoha Cola".
"?"
Madara Uchiha casually picked up a bottle, looked at it, then popped the cap off, brought it close to his nose to smell it, and then tilted his head back to take two sips. He felt the sweet, bubbly liquid slide down his throat and raised an eyebrow: "The taste is a bit peculiar, but it's just an ordinary drink. Don't worry about it."
"White Zetsu".
With that, Madara tossed the remaining cola to Tobi, the White Zetsu, who was standing not far away: "Here you go. After you drink this, don't keep nagging me about those pointless questions all the time."
—The so-called boring question is "What does poop smell like?"
Although he knew that these White Zetsu were mindless creations, Madara Uchiha still wanted to strangle a few of them from time to time to avoid having his ears soiled by their foul language.
at this time.
Black Zetsu spoke again: "Lord Madara, the combined forces of Kumogakure and Sunagakure have formed a siege against Konoha. It is expected that Obito Uchiha, Yu Mikami, and others will soon return to the battlefield. What should we do?"
"Wait a minute."
Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "The battlefield is a crucible that tempers the human heart and twists beliefs. We need to create an opportunity, a desperate situation that will shatter Obito's hopes. Ideally, this desperate situation should come from his trusted comrades or the village."
"what do you mean……"
"Shimura Danzo."
Madara Uchiha uttered the name: "That guy inherited the dark side of Tobirama Senju. Like his teacher, he is a born evil person who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. Given the talent that Yu Mikami has shown, as well as his bloodline identity with Obito, he must have already attracted Danzo's close attention."
"With a little provocation and some guidance, we can create a misunderstanding between 'Root' and Yu Mikami's group... and a good show will naturally unfold before our eyes."
"Black Zetsu, you continue to keep a close eye on Obito and the others, and keep track of their every move. Especially after they step onto the battlefield again, we cannot let go of any opportunity that might become a turning point."
"Yes, sir."
Black Zetsu nodded in agreement.
Then, Madara Uchiha turned his gaze to the distance, looking thoughtfully at the Land of Water across the sea.
"The three kingdoms of fire, wind, and lightning have already started to move. As for the Land of Earth, that brat Onoki is cunning and not easy to control. So... it's about time to make a move on Kirigakure and let it play its proper role on this stage."
"This pool of water needs to become even muddier and more chaotic."
In Madara Uchiha's heart, a massive storm was brewing once again.
……
"Huh...huh..."
Several gasps rose and fell.
Training grounds in Konoha Village.
Mikami Yu stood holding a sword, his clothes slightly dirty.
opposite.
Obito, Asuma, and Raido Namiashi were panting heavily, their hands on their knees, as if they had just gone through a fierce battle.
Just now.
The four of them teamed up for a battle, with Mikami Yu taking on Obito and the other two alone.
But the result...
You can tell just by looking at their positions.
Although Obito and the other two were not partners and lacked any coordination when fighting together,
However, even when the three of them joined forces, using almost every trick in the book from ninjutsu to taijutsu to swordsmanship, they still couldn't defeat Mikami Yu and could only manage a draw, which undoubtedly made them somewhat discouraged.
In fact, judging from Mikami Yu's current performance, this "draw" should be put in quotes. Obito and the others are already exhausted, but Mikami Yu looks like he can still keep fighting. If this were a real battlefield, he probably would have already gotten a triple kill.
"Damn it, why are you improving so fast, Yu! I've already seen it all!"
"And those ninjutsu techniques just now, they were so close to hitting you... Ugh, so annoying!"
Obito stomped his foot in frustration, his Sharingan swirling resentfully beneath his goggles.
He originally thought that the Sharingan was invincible, and he had indeed seen most of Mikami Yu's movements, but he just couldn't find a way to attack his opponent. It was as if no matter which direction he attacked from, he couldn't find any weakness in his opponent.
This result was hard for Obito to accept.
Asma wasn't much better than him.
As the son of the Third Hokage, Asuma was somewhat rebellious and often disregarded his father, but he still harbored a sense of pride and always felt that most of his peers were inferior to him, even Kakashi, who was only temporarily ahead of him.
The saying goes, "It's not true fatness if you get fat first, but it's fatness that crushes the bed later." In the long run, I still have the potential to become the strongest master of the new generation in Konoha.
Can……
What's going on with this Yu Mikami?
How come he seems to be improving every time we meet, and at an ever-increasing rate? Has he never encountered any bottlenecks in his cultivation?
Hmm... no, actually.
After all, Yu Mikami's journey so far has relied entirely on his own efforts, with only a tiny bit of help provided by the Corner System.
Although he did encounter some troubles along the way, such as the special event that the "Healing Technique" was still stuck and the "Neural Activation Technique" was still incomplete, his existing abilities were enough to leave his peers far behind, so there was no question of a bottleneck.
“Obito, your Fire Release technique is powerful enough, but the timing of its release is flawed. It's too obvious, and experienced opponents can easily see through it and dodge or defend against it. If you hadn't wasted so many opportunities, you wouldn't be this exhausted with your chakra.”
"And Asuma, your fighting style is too reckless. You always try to trade blows with your enemies, but some ninjas have the ability to kill on first encounter. They could very well kill you with just one strike, just like I used the 'Sealing Seal' to control you just now."
"If you don't correct this mistake, you'll die because of it sooner or later."
Mikami Yu offered some pointers.
In fact,
It wasn't just Asuma; many ninjas had a habit of trading blows during battles.
For example, when Kakashi first encountered Zabuza, he deliberately let himself be cut in the hand, leaving blood on Zabuza so that he could summon the Eight Ninja Dogs to find him. If it were Hidan instead of Zabuza... Kakashi would probably be dead by now.
Mikami Yu's words were both a warning to the other person and a reminder to himself.
Although Hidan is an exception, and may not have acquired the power of the Jashin at this time, Sunagakure is known for its use of poison. Once a wound is left and the opponent applies poison, losing the ability to fight or even being killed is just a matter of minutes.
In fact, a true master of poisoning can inflict poison on an enemy without even needing a wound.
If you want to live longer in this world, you have to be more careful.
"……understood."
Asma nodded and fell into deep thought.
Obito, on the other hand, was scratching his hair in frustration, still immersed in anxiety and frustration.
Only by remaining calm and focused on the same goals can one avoid feeling disappointed. After all, as long as one's expectations of oneself are low enough, one will not feel disappointed.
next to.
Nohara Rin and Yuhi Kurenai, who had just finished a sparring match, came over and handed several bottles of water to Mikami Yu and the others. The cool liquid helped alleviate the post-training heat.
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen Kakashi much lately."
"Nohara Rin suddenly said."
Chapter 183 100% Counter to the Main Character's Fate, The Hokage's Re-summoning
"really."
Yu Mikami nodded.
Kakashi's previous position was assistant instructor for Minato's team, but after the Chunin Exams, all three members of Minato's team have been promoted to Chunin, and Mikami Yu has even become a Special Jonin. Theoretically, they no longer need an assistant instructor, so he was probably sent by the village to do other missions.
However, considering Kakashi's aloof personality and his bond with Obito, he will most likely return to Minato's team to work together in the future.
Next.
Asuma finished thinking and humbly asked Mikami Yu about some questions regarding ninjutsu training.
Namiashi Raido also seized the opportunity to interject, asking a couple of questions about swordsmanship.
—Speaking of which, this person is actually a ninja who specializes in swordsmanship.
In the original storyline, he became a special Jonin, just like Genma Shiranui. He was skilled with a black-bladed katana and served as the bodyguard for both Minato Namikaze and Hiruzen Sarutobi. He then helped send both Hokage to their deaths. Later, during the Immortal Duo mission, he helped send Asuma to his death...
Hmm, it's reasonable to suspect that this guy has some kind of cursed fate, that whoever he serves as a bodyguard dies. It's even possible that the time Tsunade was nearly killed by Pain was related to him...
At this moment, Namiashi Raido is probably too young to fully develop his swordsmanship, and he is practicing the same "Konoha-ryu swordsmanship" as Yuhi Shinku, so he can't help Mikami Yu complete the "Hatake Swordsmanship" quest.
Faced with the two people's questions, Mikami Yu didn't hold back and answered based on his experience.
