"No need for that."
The conditions for raising ninja dogs are more complex than those for ordinary dogs. Their diet needs to be more refined, and they also need to be given secret pills from time to time to better enhance their intelligence and chakra. Hideki Inuzuka has already written this down on paper, and Yu Mikami and Rin Nohara just need to follow it.
Next.
Mikami Yu casually inquired about Obito's training progress.
At this point, Obito immediately perked up: "Haha, you guys have no idea, Chief Fugaku is really amazing! I used to think he became chief because of connections! He taught me so much, ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu... I feel like I'm incredibly strong now!"
"Really? Then let's spar sometime?"
"Um... let's wait a few days. We have to continue training tomorrow."
Obito deflected the blame.
Despite his confidence, Obito was still somewhat aware of his own abilities, and even more so of Mikami Yu's. Although Mikami Yu had never shown his full strength to him, his record of capturing Pakura and repeatedly defeating Sunagakure was undeniable, surpassing even Kakashi's abilities, let alone Obito's.
but……
Mikami Yu's weakness is the lack of a bloodline limit, while Obito has awakened the Sharingan. According to Fugaku, the ninja world's assessment of Uchiha clan members with the Sharingan is that "in a one-on-one fight, they will inevitably escape." As long as he can make good use of these eyes, surpassing Mikami Yu is just around the corner!
At that time, even Nohara Rin will probably look at him with admiration... I'm getting a little excited just thinking about it.
"Alright, stop grinning like an idiot."
Yu Mikami's voice interrupted Obito's reverie: "Minato-sensei said he's treating us to ramen, and he's one person short, so hurry up and come over."
"Oh! Here it comes!"
Obito quickly caught up.
That evening, the four members of the Minato Group gathered at Ichiraku Ramen, where each person ate an average of two and a half bowls of food and also ordered four extra bottles of Coke.
Rin Nohara knew the origin of "raw cola".
However, Minato and Obito didn't attend the dinner, so they only learned then that "raw cola" was actually invented by Yu Mikami and Tsunade, and they immediately showed expressions of surprise. Obito even clamored to smuggle two cases from Yu Mikami to take back and drink.
"This stuff is produced in limited quantities right now. Do you think it's like cabbage, something you can just grab two cases of anytime? Three to five bottles should be enough."
Mikami Yu politely declined.
"...That's fine too."
Obito said dejectedly.
Afterwards, Minato bought two more bottles of cola, intending to take them back for Kushina to try.
Yuya Mikami then expressed his desire to hear "Kushina's Little Class" again, which Minato Namikaze readily agreed to—sealing techniques must be learned, after all, they are one of the underlying codes of the Naruto world. Whether or not they will be used is another matter, but they definitely need to know them, otherwise it will be very troublesome at crucial moments.
After leaving Ichiraku Ramen, the four parted ways and went their separate ways home.
There's no need to dwell on the mundane family matters after returning home.
In the following days,
Yu Mikami and the others continued to train with Minato Namikaze and Fugaku Uchiha, with Kakashi occasionally appearing as a sparring partner.
Yu Mikami activated the Shadow Clone Accelerator.
Together with Rin Nohara, the main body followed Minato Namikaze to train in regular ninjutsu, as well as the newly learned "Summoning Jutsu";
Meanwhile, the clone found a training ground far from human habitation to practice those few ninjutsu that were meant to be used as trump cards and not to be used easily, such as "Nerve Activation Technique" and "Light Flame Bullet".
As Jiraiya said before, intelligence is the lifeline of a ninja. Konoha may seem safe now, but who knows where a White Zetsu or a Root spy might be hiding? Especially around Obito, who is definitely under close surveillance. Therefore, in order to preserve intelligence, we have to put in extra effort.
Chapter 151 Water and Fire Characteristics Upgraded, A Different Chunin Exam (Part 2)
During his breaks from training, Mikami Yu made several trips to Konoha Hospital. One reason was to find Tsunade, confirm the progress of the Scorch Release research, and discuss the promotion of "raw cola" in the Land of Fire; the other was to complete the "Healing Jutsu" quest and quickly maximize her favorability.
Both of these things were done out of selfish motives.
However, his appearance did relieve a lot of pressure on Konoha Hospital. Without knowing about the Corner System, the other medical ninjas assumed that Mikami Yu was driven by the "Will of Fire" and was making contributions to Konoha on his own initiative, and they praised him for a time.
Even Sarutobi Biwako, the honorary dean, praised Mikami Yu to his face and personally taught him a new technique:
[Ding! Gift detected: Limited-edition skin - Healing Technique: The Art of Extracting Subtle Ailments!]
The small lesion was extracted.
This is a B-rank ninjutsu. Its purpose is to remove toxins or pathogens from a patient's body, thereby curing the patient. It is considered a relatively practical ninjutsu.
Moreover, as a "skin", it has no learning curve. Basically, you can use it as long as you give it to "healing". At most, you can't immediately max out the proficiency level. You need to heal a few people to practice.
Mikami Yu accepted it with a smile.
Hmm... that's one of his goals too.
After all, in this world, power and connections matter. At this point in time, no one has a stronger background than the then Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Whether for the sake of his own "raw cola" business empire or for the ninjutsu resources controlled by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Yu Mikami has every reason to cultivate a good relationship with the Sarutobi clan. Things like the "Book of Seals" require their permission to view.
Over time.
On the streets of Konoha Village, more and more unfamiliar ninjas wearing headbands from other ninja villages and hurrying about began to appear.
In addition, some people from other places also appeared here. Most of them were wealthy and leisurely nobles who wanted to watch the excitement, and merchants who were preparing to do some business. As for the commoners, they were mostly from towns around Konoha.
It is worth mentioning that,
The man Tachibana Masamune, whom Mikami Yu had previously escorted, along with his two children, also appeared in Konoha.
The two sides bumped into each other in the village. The Tachibana twins clearly remembered Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin, calling them "big brother" and "Rin sister" repeatedly. Tachibana Masamune also stopped and exchanged a few polite words with Mikami Yu and Nohara before they went their separate ways.
Yu Mikami remembers that this person seems to be a close relative of the daimyo of the Land of Fire, and probably holds some status in noble circles.
If he could ask the other party to help promote "raw cola", it would greatly help expand the cola business. However, he needs to plan carefully how to do it, since he and the other party are just nodding acquaintances, and there is a generational difference in age and little relationship between them.
at last.
It was the second week after we returned to the village.
Yu Mikami's "harem" has gained two more ninjutsu that reach a favorability level of 50 and correspond to the intimacy stage: "Dragon Fire Technique" and "Water Wall".
And their characteristics were thus elevated to a higher level—
[Dragonfire Technique (Trait: Piercing Flame: Your Dragonfire Technique is exceptionally stable and less affected by external environmental factors when cast. The flame range is increased by 15% on top of its original value. If you spend time charging, the range will increase by an additional 1% -> 3% for every second of charging, stacking up to 5 times.)]
[Water Wall (Trait: Water Fusion: Your Water Wall has a strong self-management awareness. It will actively observe your combat habits and predict your vulnerable points. When activated, its defense strength is increased by an additional 25% -> 40%. There is also a 25% chance that it will trigger automatically, blocking an unstoppable surprise attack for you.)]
The "charge" effect of "Dragon Fire Technique" has been enhanced, theoretically increasing the range by up to 30%. However, in actual combat, it is practically impossible to charge for 5 seconds, so it can only be described as a slight enhancement.
The "Water Wall" enhances defensive strength by 40%, which is acceptable.
With the addition of 2 points to physique, the overall gains are acceptable.
at the same time……
Also in this week, the Chunin Exams, which Konoha Village had been planning for a long time, finally began.
……
This morning.
The morning sun had just dispelled the thin mist when Yu Mikami was already ready. As he came out of the house, he saw the Mikami couple setting out steaming rice balls and miso soup on the table: "Yu, you're up? Come on, eat! Today is exam day, so do your best!"
"Ah."
Yu Mikami nodded, sat down at the table, and casually asked about the "raw cola".
Thanks to Yu Mikami's efforts... no, to be precise, spurred by the "30% profit sharing" offer, Tsunade has agreed to serve as the technical advisor and promotional ambassador for "Konoha Cola," responsible for connecting them with nobles and wealthy merchants in the Land of Fire to conduct cooperation negotiations.
However, Tsunade couldn't possibly handle all the negotiations for them; she could only act as an intermediary. The actual business still had to be handled by Mikami Tajima.
Mikami Tajima was a little nervous about this.
After all, this was his first time doing business. He had only been a lowly Chunin before and had never had much contact with those important figures, so it was understandable that he felt uneasy.
However, when Yu Mikami suggested that he create a shadow clone to go with him, Tajima Mikami refused as expected: "Yu, your Chunin Exams are more important. Leave these things to me! Even though it's my first time doing this... I have to give it a try!"
"That's right, go for it. Your mom and I will support you."
Yu Mikami nodded.
Mikami Tajima was a little speechless after what he said: "No, why do you talk so awkwardly... as if you're the father. Alright, let's eat. I'll give you a ride later before I go find Lady Tsunade."
After finishing the meal.
As the Mikami father and son came out of their house, they saw Nohara Rin squatting in the yard next door, saying goodbye to her little white dog. The dog seemed a little anxious because its owner had left, and was whimpering softly, while Rin gently stroked the dog's fur, assuring it that she would be back soon.
"Hey, Yu, are you ready?"
Nohara Rin stood up immediately, her ninja tool pouch bulging at her waist, clearly already packed.
Mikami Yu nodded: "Yes, can we go now?"
"Coming right now!"
Nohara Rin patted Shiro's head one last time, then quickly caught up with Mikami Yu and Mikami Tajima. After walking for a while, the three separated again, with the latter going to discuss business, while Mikami Yu and Shiro headed side by side toward the examination hall.
On the way, the two encountered Might Guy's team, who were also heading this way.
"Yu! Lin! It's you! Long time no see!"
Might Guy was still wearing his signature green bodysuit, walking upside down, with a helpless-looking Ebisu and Genma Shiranui beside him.
Upon seeing Yu Mikami and Rin Nohara, Kai shouted loudly, flashing a thumbs-up and revealing his gleaming white teeth: "Our burning youth doesn't allow for slackness! Let's go all out in the Chunin Exams! Hmm... why are there only two of you? Where are Obito and Kakashi?"
"Obito should still be on his way."
"As for Kakashi... he's in the examiners' team."
Mikami Yu spoke of it casually.
But Might Guy already looked surprised: "What?! Kakashi... he's already an examiner? Damn it! He was like that back in the Ninja Academy, and he's like that now... No way, I have to burn even harder with my youthful passion and become faster and stronger!"
"...Save your energy, Kai, for the exam."
Genma Shiranui, with a senbon in his mouth, remarked.
Ebisu pushed up his glasses and secretly sized up Mikami Yu and Nohara Rin.
The three members of Kaiban were all from commoner backgrounds and, unlike Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi, were well-informed, so they were unaware of Mikami Yu and the others' performance on the southwestern battlefield. However, Ebisu still faintly sensed the restrained yet powerful aura emanating from Mikami Yu.
after that.
The group continued on and arrived at the small building where the examination was being held.
A considerable number of people had already gathered there, including some familiar faces, such as Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma, whom I had met a few days ago. Both of them were dressed in neat and practical ninja attire. Kurenai Yuhi's hands were already wrapped in bandages, and she immediately waved to Yu Mikami upon seeing him.
Also, there were Hinata Himon and others who graduated with him.
And some genin from smaller ninja villages such as Takigakure, Kusagakure, and Amegakure.
It is said that Iwagakure also sent a small team to take the exam, but it is unclear whether they did not come or were somewhere else. Mikami Yu looked around but could not find the Iwagakure headband.
Rin Nohara was a little worried: "Where's Obito yet... Could he have overslept? Yu, should we go check out the Uchiha clan's territory?"
"No need, there's still enough time."
Mikami Yu glanced at the sky: "If all else fails, I'll use a shadow clone to become him and get into the exam hall first."
"Huh? Isn't that against the rules?"
"do not know."
In theory, Yu Mikami could perfectly transform into Obito, given their long-standing partnership and his intimate knowledge of Obito. Aside from the Sharingan, he could replicate almost all of Obito's abilities. However, in this situation, such a transformation is probably unnecessary.
soon.
When time was about to expire.
A figure, accompanied by the sound of wind and dust, rushed over from a distance at the speed of a hundred-meter sprint, barely stopping before the assembly time was over. It was none other than Uchiha Obito, panting heavily and with his hair sticking up in the air.
"Phew... Phew... I finally made it!"
"The timing was perfect."
Mikami gestured with his chin: "Let's go, it's time to go in."
……
The first two parts of this Chunin Exam were similar to those of Naruto's year.
First, there was a small illusion test. A fake entrance to the exam hall was used to attract attention, while the real entrance was located on the other side. Some candidates who did not notice the illusion were eliminated directly.
Then came the first written test.
