Simultaneous Travel: Becoming a Legend in the Heavens.

Chapter 426 Itachi and Uranium
On the empty training ground, two figures that were invisible to the naked eye collided and separated at a rapid speed.

The scorching airflow blew up the hair, and the surging chakra rushed through the meridians, running at high speed in a self-abuse manner in exchange for powerful strength.

"Jingmen, open!"

The forbidden technique of Eight Gates of Ninjutsu was opened to the sixth gate. Might Guy's muscles became knotted and veins bulged. He turned into a green afterimage and rushed towards Kakashi, stirring up waves of strong wind as he moved.

He stepped back with his right foot and disappeared from the spot in an instant. Tiny cracks spread like a spider web, and a kick of astonishing strength had already fiercely kicked towards his motionless enemy.

“This is youth!”

The fierce kick displaced the air, creating a brief vacuum. The high momentum echoed along with a deafening roar. The ground wailed and cracked into pieces, turning into dust.

Kai felt something was wrong because of the unreal feedback, but his opponent failed to catch the opportunity because his strength had not yet recovered.

"Uh……"

He was about to turn around but it was too late. A trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The short knife emitting a cold light was already against his neck. Just a slight stroke would end his life.

Kakashi stood behind Gai, his tone unable to tell what emotion he had.

"ended."

He looked at Kai, whose face showed obvious surprise, and slowly retracted his white teeth, but there was a hint of doubt between his eyebrows that he himself did not expect.

It was common for him to be entangled in a battle with Kai. The two had always won and lost in their sparring. Generally speaking, they were evenly matched, but strictly speaking, he was actually slightly better.

After all, Kai specializes in physical skills, which are powerful but not complicated. If Kai did not have keen senses like a beast, he would be far ahead in diversity and tactics.

Besides, it was just a sparring match after all, a fight of life and death, so both sides were holding back. Kai seldom used his trump card, the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu. This competition was also because he was itching to use it since they hadn't fought for a while.

The problem is, it's too easy.

Every movement, every gesture, and every intention of the opponent was clearly visible and captured with exceptional clarity. Compared to the usual lengthy duels, he only did two things: dodge the attacks and put the dagger to the vital points.

Kakashi frowned. In the past, when dealing with a tough opponent like Kai, he had to work hard to observe him. But in the battle just now, he clearly felt that there was a clear gap between the two sides. This...

As he was thinking, he saw Kai silently lowering his head, seeming a little lost.

Just as he was wondering if he had hit too hard and should have fought a few more rounds, Kai responded with a loud laugh that blew away all the negative emotions.

"Amazing! I didn't expect you to become so powerful after just a while of not fighting. It seems my youth is not enough!"

"It's decided. Today's training volume will be doubled!"

Kakashi: "..."

Looking at Gai who was running away with high morale, Kakashi sighed silently in his heart. He must be crazy to think that Gai would be disappointed about such a thing.

…………

The next day, early in the morning.

The area where the Ninja Academy graduation exam is held.

The crowd was surging, and parents of students from all grades took their seats one by one, looking forward to seeing their children.

After the admission fees and age restrictions were relaxed, the number of students in the Ninja Academy has exploded compared to the past. After all, the status of ninjas is quite high, and families with the means are still willing to send their children in.

However, those who can graduate early are still members of large families. After all, they have the foundation laid by three generations of ancestors, which is very different from ordinary students.

After Lu Ke sat down, he glanced at the audience below. As expected, he saw the Twelve Little Strongmen in the not-so-small crowd. They were obviously much younger than ordinary students.

The mini versions of Ino, Deer and Chou gathered together and talked with each other like the older generation. The only person on the casualty list, Hyuga Neji, stood expressionless in the crowd. Hinata next to him lowered her head shyly, wondering if she saw something she shouldn't have seen with her Byakugan.

Further ahead, Ya and Shino, two descendants of the family, were discussing with each other which one of the bugs and dogs had a more attractive XP. Xiao Li, who had not yet put on the same green leather tights as Might Guy, was silently doing push-ups in the corner.

Of course, the most important thing is the three people who have been entangled for 720 episodes. Haruno Sakura chasing Sasuke, Naruto chasing Haruno Sakura, and Sasuke chasing Naruto. It is a perfect closed loop...

Generally speaking, in real life, two of these threesomes usually have an affair and then cheat, leaving one behind.

Lu Ke tapped his left palm with his right hand. As expected, Naruto is still a positive youth manga... probably.

What also caught his attention was Tian Tian, ​​who had a bun on her hair. This girl who didn't have many roles in the Twelve Little Strongmen actually acted like a tsundere heroine and was circling around the stupid brother in the audience.

The rich little woman who scattered the ninja tools as beans kept saying things like "I didn't want you to come" and "I just wanted you to see the real use of the ninja tools".

These days, tsundere has become obsolete!

Lu Ke sighed. He remembered that the last tsundere type that he liked was Toosaka Rin, and the one before that was Misaka Mikoto. They were all old-fashioned people who couldn't get on board the ship of the new era.

When it came to the opening ceremony, Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, walked to the front of the stage with her long legs to speak.

She looked around seriously, her powerful gaze silencing the entire audience, and then she spoke slowly.

"Let me just say a few words."

"Good luck on the test, and don't cheat."

She really just said a few simple words, and then immediately walked off the stage with her long legs.

Crowd: "(Д*)
It is rare to see such an efficient speech, and everyone present looked doubtful about their lives.

Sarutobi Hiruzen next to him immediately seized the opportunity and hurriedly stood up. The Konoha reform cut out too many useless and formalistic things, and it had been a long time since he had given a good speech to the new generation.

"Then let me tell you about the Will of Fire."

"Wherever the leaves are flying, the fire will continue to grow. The fire will continue to illuminate the village and make new leaves sprout."

"Don't just think about what the village has done for you, think more about what you have done for the village..."

The emotional speech was accompanied by the spit of Monkey King. Facing the former Hokage, the people in the audience could only applaud enthusiastically.

Lu Ke couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. After all these years, he still loves MLM so much!

After a speech that was so long that it sounded like a torture, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was still unsatisfied, was politely asked to leave. The ninja in charge of the examination was finally able to step forward and announce the official start of the exam.

Compared to the simple Three Body Techniques to test students in the original work, the reformed graduation test is quite simple. As long as you fight against real Genin and perform well enough in the battle, you can graduate successfully.

However, the requirements for students applying for early graduation are more stringent. Not only are they required to actually defeat a Genin, but there are also quota restrictions.

This is due to safety considerations. Geniuses can have the privilege of graduating early and participating in missions, but being too young means insufficient experience. Even if their combat abilities are better than their peers, it does not mean that they are mature enough in other aspects.

Unless they demonstrate the ability to stand on their own, geniuses with a higher ceiling than ordinary ninjas will be protected and allowed to grow to the starting stage before being released.

Due to venue reasons, the assessment was conducted in groups. Waves of immature students were eagerly waiting for the opportunity to fight with real ninjas.

However, the duel between a group of ten-year-old children and low-level Genin is naturally not very interesting. It is considered good for students of this age to master the Three Body Technique and show a certain degree of aggressiveness. Don't expect it to be very entertaining.

"Sir." Just as Luke was waiting boredly for Naruto to appear, a deep male voice sounded beside him.

Hinata Hiashi came over at some point, and his usually stern face showed a hint of intimacy, and he spoke in a friendly manner.

"Chief Rizu, what's the matter?"

Luke was not familiar with this man with the Byakugan disease. The only communication between the two was when he invaded Konoha and defeated this man once and opened the Pokédex.

The Byakugan only has the functions of farsightedness, perspective and all-round vision. Although it is not too weak, it can only be used in low-end games. Compared with the Sharingan, especially the Mangekyō, the gap is too obvious.

After evolving into the Samsara Eye, it's quite good and can be considered an eye of the same level as the Rinnegan.

Otsutsuki Toneri's "Golden Wheel Tensei Explosion" directly cut the moon. Although the moon in Naruto is just the product of the Chibaku Tensei by the two brothers Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Hamura, and its scale is much smaller than the moon in reality, its expressiveness is already outstanding enough.

"Nothing, just as we are both members of Konoha, I hope to have more exchanges with you in the future."

Hinata Hiashi answered politely. Normally speaking, in this situation, both parties need to say a few polite words to each other and then start exchanging interests when the atmosphere is good.

"Oh."

Lu Ke ended the topic with a monosyllabic word and looked back at the examination room where the rookies were pecking at each other.

Hinata Rizu: "..."

This greenhorn doesn't play by the rules!

"There is indeed something I would like to ask your opinion on."

Hinata Hiashi forced himself to move the topic forward and reluctantly said, "What do you think of Hinata?"

Lu Ke, who had originally not cared much, was suddenly shocked, as if he understood who had left the note yesterday. He looked at Hinata Hiashi as if he had seen a ghost.

"How can you ask such a question? Hinata is just a child!"

Hinata Hiashi was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, "Your Excellency misunderstood, I wanted to ask, do you think Hinata has the talent for forging ninja tools?"

After seeing Luke cripple Danzo with just a few ninja tools, he developed a great interest in scientific ninja tools, especially when the Hyuga clan was declining while the Uchiha clan was producing many geniuses.

Luke's strange look calmed down a little: "You let a girl learn blacksmithing?"

"This is the responsibility that the Zong family should bear."

Hinata Hiashi's tone was flat. He had no choice. The clan was small and the two he had were both daughters. His nephew, Hinata Neji, was not bad, but...

He cast his eyes towards the crowd, and saw Ningji, dressed in white, just starting the assessment at this moment.

Compared to the previous childish fight, Neji showed a sophistication and strength that did not belong to his age. His soft fist technique was more proficient than some adult boys, and with the help of his Byakugan, he easily suppressed the opposing Genin.

Finally, he seized the opportunity and used the "Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms" in his soft fist to seal his opponent's chakra. He passed the test easily amid the exclamations of the crowd and left gracefully.

Hiashi shook his head. Although Neji was an excellent person, his resentment towards the main family was quite obvious.

If it weren't for the fact that his father Hyuga Hizashi sacrificed himself for Hinata, the branch family that hated the main family so much would have been dealt with long ago, and there would have been no chance of learning a skill with amazing potential like scientific ninja tools.

Who knows if Ningji will use this power against the main family after he has learned it?
At present, the probability is very high!

Before Lu Ke could open his mouth to refuse, two round fans came over one after another from a distance and interrupted their conversation.

Uchiha Fugaku put his arm around Hiashi's shoulder as if they were good brothers, and politely asked him to leave in the face of the other's livid face, leaving Uchiha Itachi standing there with an expressionless face.

"I used to be Kakashi-senpai's team member. Please rest assured that today's meeting was arranged by my father. I am simply here to watch my brother take the exam."

Itachi was quite good at observing people's expressions and he started by trying to get closer to Kakashi, then he explained the situation frankly.

Such a timely attitude made Lu Ke's eyebrows twitch. He nodded without saying anything, and focused his attention on the exam below with him.

After a fierce fight between the noobs, the twelve strongest players advanced one after another, and only three were eliminated, Hinata, Haruno Sakura and Rock Lee.

Hinata is too timid, Haruno Sakura and Rock Lee are just commoners and don't have enough potential.

The former is simply a fangirl who wants to see more of Sasuke, while the latter shows amazing perseverance, being knocked down by the Genin in the assessment several times but still refusing to make the seal of reconciliation, and standing up to continue. Might Guy, who was watching the fight, called him "youth" and was already intending to take him in as his disciple.

Sasuke's performance was a little embarrassing, but surprisingly close to the level of normal graduation in the original work. He also performed the "Great Fireball Technique" and successfully defeated his opponent. It can be seen that he was well trained by Itachi.

Naruto was no worse off. Although he was beaten up like a regular protagonist, with bruises all over his body and gasping for breath, he still had the health lock to help him get up at the last moment and defeat the opponent.

The two victorious little brats looked towards the audience with joy, and naturally saw Luke and Itachi standing together.

Obviously, they didn't want to lose face in front of important people, and the two people who were already competing with each other immediately started a verbal battle, arguing back and forth, and they couldn't wait to fight on the spot to prove that they were the better one.

Sure enough, during the process of competing for the spot, Naruto and Sasuke miraculously met again.

Lu Ke could swear that he didn't do anything about it, or that he didn't need to do anything about it at all.

Just by looking down at the fate lines of the two people, one can find that Asura and Indra are destined to fight. This is determined by some supreme will in the dark.

…………

In the examination room.

Sasuke glanced at Itachi in the audience stands, and after receiving his encouraging nod, he suddenly became full of confidence as if he saw the sky clear up and the rain stopped.

As long as Itachi was there, he wouldn't lose.

"You're the last one, you can go prepare for next year's exam."

Sasuke raised his chin and spoke arrogantly.

"Arrogant Sasuke, I will definitely be the winner this time!"

Naruto also looked towards the audience stands, recalling the gift Luke gave him yesterday after he completed the quiz game, and patted his chest with confidence.

The two of them slowly formed the seal of opposition, each preparing to use their ultimate moves.

"The duel begins!"

"Fire Escape——"

"Little boy!"

Naruto held up a cylindrical object and called out the name that Luke had told him when he handed him the winning weapon.

"The name may sound a bit strange, but once used, it can anchor victory." I remember being told this.

Luke's lips curled up into a smile.

Sasuke may have Itachi, but Naruto also has uranium!
