Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu.

[Phoenix Fire Technique: (Grinning, eyes crinkling with laughter) Hehe, I didn't expect you to have such an interesting personality. How about we give it a try? If you can spit out a fireball that satisfies me, I'll show you some fun~]

present.

Mikami Yu brought his attention back to reality. Under Hiruzen Sarutobi's encouraging gaze, he put his hands together in a mudra, recalling the former's explanation, and his hands flew as he formed hand seals, attempting to cast a spell.

"Fire Release... Phoenix Flower Technique!"

call!

Several basketball-sized, orange-red fireballs spewed from Mikami Yu's mouth, flying steadily forward six or seven meters before slamming into several other targets, leaving charred marks. Although not as powerful as the one released by Sarutobi Hiruzen earlier, it was still quite impressive.

—In theory, Yu Mikami is now practically a Fire Release genius. After all, the "Fire Release Chakra Affinity Amplification" trait of the [Fire Spirit] is a universal trait, applicable even if it's not a Great Fireball Jutsu but a Phoenix Flower Jutsu.

[Phoenix Fire Technique: (She lightly spins in mid-air, her long hair formed of flames fluttering) Yay! Success! Although it's a little crooked, it's just the beginning~ Passable!]

[Phoenix Fire Technique Affection +3, added to the romance list! Current Affection: 3/100 (Unfamiliar)]

next to.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly and said encouragingly, "For your first attempt, you've already done very well in successfully drawing chakra to form the initial shape of a fireball. The key is the stability of your chakra output. Let's try again, and focus."

"it is good."

Yu Mikami nodded, took a deep breath, and tried again.

This time, the number of fireballs he spat out increased by about ten, and they were also much larger. But almost the instant he cast the spell, Mikami Yu sensed something was amiss—

"Ok?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was slightly taken aback.

The fireballs spewed from Mikami Yu's mouth seemed to be guided by an invisible thread, arranging themselves in a large "人" (human) shape in mid-air; after two seconds, the "人" shape disintegrated, and the fireballs were suddenly stretched into a straight line – the "一" (one) shape!

Immediately afterwards, the "one" shape transformed into an "O" shape.

Finally, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, seven or eight fireballs flew, swirled, and collided in all directions, exploding into clusters of tiny sparks, which then fell like golden raindrops, a truly beautiful sight.

"Hey, what are you doing..."

Yu Mikami was starting to lose control.

[Phoenix Fire Technique: (Giggles, chasing after the flying fireballs) So much fun! Flying freely is the best! Look, little sister, how beautiful it is!]

This time, Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned for two or three seconds before looking at Yu Mikami with a look of astonishment: "How did you do that?"

"I...I just wanted to give it a try..."

Yu Mikami coughed lightly and said.

He definitely set off those fireballs. There's little other explanation besides him wanting to do something fun on a whim. At least he didn't arrange the fireballs into the shape of an "SB" or a heart; otherwise, the image would have been unbearable to imagine…

Hiruzen Sarutobi, unsuspecting, showed his appreciation: "Not bad! You've only just learned the Phoenix Flower Technique, yet you can control your chakra to such an exquisite degree, changing the trajectory of the fireball at will... It seems your talent in fire-style ninjutsu far exceeds my expectations."

"Lord Hokage, you flatter me..."

"Since you have such a talent for Fire Release,"

Hiruzen Sarutobi paused, then pulled two scrolls from the wide sleeves of his Hokage robe. The scrolls were made of slightly worn, yellowish-brown parchment, tied with a thin, dark green silk cord.

"These two scrolls are the 'Phoenix Fairy Fire Technique' and the 'Great Fire Wall Technique', respectively."

"'Great Fire Wall' is a C-rank ninjutsu, which is more defensive. It can create a blazing wall of flames that can block physical attacks and burn enemies who try to pass through it. I have written the key points on the scroll. Take it back and study it. If you don't understand something, you can ask your team leader."

"However, remember that in the path of cultivation, one should not be greedy for more or faster results. It is best to first master the Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique and make it completely one's own before pondering the Great Fire Wall Technique."

"!"

What unexpected surprises awaited?

Yu Mikami was slightly taken aback, then burst into unexpected elation: he got the new skin!

He quickly raised his hands and respectfully accepted the scroll: "Thank you, Lord Hokage! I will certainly remember your teachings, proceed steadily and surely, and first master the Phoenix Flower Flame!"

"very good."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in satisfaction, patted Yu Mikami on the shoulder, and said with a hint of expectation in his voice, "Go. Your team leader should have arrived by now. Go and join your teammates to welcome a new beginning. The future of Konoha rests on the shoulders of you 'new sprouts'."

After saying that, he moved swiftly, accompanied by a wisp of smoke, and used the Instantaneous Movement Technique to leave the playground.

After watching the Third Hokage leave,

Mikami carefully put the two scrolls away and let out a long sigh of relief.

Let's not rush into giving gifts; it won't take long.

The most important thing right now is to confirm one thing—

Who exactly is the Jonin leading his team?

soon.

Yu Mikami returned to the ninja academy's main hall, which was now deserted. Only rows of tables and chairs stood forlornly, dust floating on them, creating a Dali Garden effect under the sunlight streaming through the windows.

"Yu-kun, you're back!"

Nohara Rin was still there, reviewing her medical notes. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and gave a gentle smile: "Is the Hokage's teaching going well?"

"Hmm, not bad, I learned two new ninjutsu..."

Mikami Yu looked around. "Where is everyone else? Have they all finished assigning classes and left?"

"Yes."

Nohara Rin closed the scroll and thought for a moment: "Kai and Genma, Ebisu are in the same class, Asuma and Kurenai, and Namiashi are in the same class, and Madoka and Hinata are in the same class... Oki-sensei told me to wait for you here, I thought you knew something about it."

"...?"

Chapter 47 detected an extraordinary potential target: "Flying Thunder God"!

Upon hearing Nohara Rin's words, Mikami Yu paused for a moment, instinctively sensing that something was amiss.

Oki asked Nohara Rin to wait for him here...

What means?

Just then, the auditorium doors were slammed open from the outside. A figure wearing yellow goggles and sporting a spiky hairstyle appeared in the doorway—it was none other than Uchiha Obito, who was a full two and a half hours late.

Obito leaned against the doorframe, bent over, panting heavily: "Huff...huff...Rin! You're still here! And Yu...I'm not too late, am I?!"

"..."

After a brief silence, Nohara Rin sighed with a mix of helplessness and amusement: "Obito-kun, the graduation ceremony is over, everyone has been assigned to classes and left... But there's one headband left here, which Oki-sensei specifically asked me and Yu-kun to give to you."

"Wow, can I graduate too?"

Obito was initially pleasantly surprised, but then he was a beat slow to realize, "The class assignments are all done? Rin, which class are you in? Are you in the same class as me?"

"..."

This is a good question.

It is known that Konoha has always divided students into groups of three. If there is a bond, students are grouped together first; otherwise, they are divided equally according to their grades.

It is also known that Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin are childhood friends who grew up together, and Obito is Rin's loyal admirer, so theoretically there is a bond between them; and their academic performance is respectively: top of the class, upper-middle, and bottom of the class among graduates...

Mikami Yu's alarm bells rang, and he immediately stood up, preparing to ask if the class assignments could be changed. But before he could take a step, a hand quietly landed on his shoulder, accompanied by a gentle, clear male voice:

"It seems everyone has arrived."

"!!"

Yu Mikami's eyelids twitched.

Rin Nohara and Obito looked up at the same time and saw a tall, blond man who had appeared in the hall at some point. His dark green vest indicated his status as a Konoha Jonin, and his deep blue eyes were calm and gentle, exuding a natural affability.

"Nice to meet you. I am Minato Namikaze. From today onwards, I will serve as your Jonin instructor."

"..."

Grass.

The worst premonition came true.

At that moment, Yu's mind was buzzing, like a revolving lantern flashing through scenes from the original story... This, this isn't right, is it? I've become Kakashi? Where did Kakashi go? Is it too late to drop out of school and become a ramen maker?

next to.

Obito looked at Minato Namikaze with longing: "Instructing a Jonin? You must be really good, much better than that arrogant Kakashi, right?"

"Well... I'll just say I'm a little bit better than him."

Minato Namikaze made a "little bit" gesture with his other hand, then coughed lightly: "Alright, we'll talk about the rest later. A first meeting needs a little ceremony. Come on, move closer to each other and hold hands."

"?"

Yu Mikami is still watching the revolving lantern.

Obito glanced at Rin Nohara, somewhat hesitant.

Rin Nohara, however, took the initiative to reach out and grasp Yu Mikami's hand, then used her other hand to grab Obito's wrist: "Is that so, Minato-sensei?"

"Correct."

Minato Namikaze took a step closer and placed his hands on Yu Mikami and Obito's shoulders respectively, saying, "Hold on tight."

hum-

At that moment, Yu and the others simultaneously felt a blur before their eyes, a dizzying sensation that swept through their bodies in an instant. When they regained their senses, they had already left the grand hall and found themselves in a forest, surrounded by bright sunshine and dense foliage.

[Ding! Detected an extraordinary potential target: "Flying Thunder God"!]

[The strategy requirements are not met, and the strategy cannot be completed]

The corner system popped up two lines of prompts.

Based on previous experience, mastering these high-level ninjutsu does indeed require certain conditions. For example, the "Eight Gates" quest was only triggered after Mikami Yu's physique increased by more than ten points, and the "Flying Thunder God" ninjutsu, being an S-rank ninjutsu, should be similarly conditional.

Therefore, Yu Mikami was not particularly disappointed. He simply took a deep breath and looked around.

Ok.

Although I'm a little bothered by the fact that I actually joined the Minato team, objectively speaking, it's the best choice under the current circumstances.

Of the three legendary Sannin of this period, apart from Orochimaru, the other two no longer publicly accepted disciples. Minato Namikaze was the only Hokage successor who was still leading the class, and his own strength was among the top five, with the potential to become the third. According to Konoha's tradition, his disciples had the opportunity to enter the Hokage candidate list.

Hiruzen Sarutobi assigned me to his command, which shows how much he values ​​me. Changing shifts under these circumstances would only make things look bad for several parties.

and so……

Come here.

Well, since we're here, let's make the best of it.

According to the original storyline, Minato's team didn't face any insurmountable life-or-death crises until they reached the Kannabi Bridge. At worst, they could spend the next two years figuring out how to exploit Minato Namikaze, expanding their strategy list, and then find a way to avoid this mission later.

at this time.

Rin Nohara and Obito also belatedly realized what was happening.

"Wow, where is this..."

"It's the training grounds outside Konoha! Minato-sensei, could it be... that you can teleport?"

In response to Obito's question,

Minato Namikaze smiled and said, "Pretty much. This is a space-time ninjutsu called 'Flying Thunder God.' As long as you set the coordinates in advance, you can jump to the designated location in an instant. It will be very convenient when you need to move long distances."

"Hey, isn't that Yu's Substitution Jutsu?" Obito glanced at Yu Mikami.

Minato Namikaze chuckled: "You could say that, it's like an enhanced version of the 'Substitute Technique'... It seems Yu is more adaptable, she reacted as soon as she arrived."

"..."

Yuuki Mikami said that if I really reacted that fast, I could probably conquer the "Flying Thunder God Technique." However, compared to Obito and Rin Nohara, who experienced this kind of instantaneous teleportation for the first time, the difference is indeed huge.

"Alright, everyone, please sit down. Let's start by introducing ourselves and talking about our dreams and such."

Minato Namikaze clapped his hands and sat down on the grass first.

Ok.

Self-introductions, sharing dreams, and vying for the bell—these are essential parts of the experience in this remote corner of Konoha. Following the principle of "when in Rome, do as the Romans do," Mikami Yuu also participated.

but……

When they reached the last step, Minato Namikaze paused for a moment. "According to the procedure, each newly formed class needs to undergo a break-in drill. But before that, I need to explain something."
