Orochimaru narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Comparing me to a junior?"

Jiraiya, you are incredibly arrogant...

But Jiraiya didn't give him a chance to retort, waving his hand dismissively: "However, since the atmosphere has already reached this point—"

“I mentioned this at the last gathering, Tsunade: we need to show Asuma and Aokiji how good their senior brother is. So today, let our disciples take the lead. That shouldn't be a problem, right?”

"As for Stinky Snake, he doesn't have any apprentices for the time being... so let him keep an eye on things for today!"

Jiraiya still managed to keep his composure and didn't suggest that Minato should fight Orochimaru.

Tsunade snorted coldly, but still looked at Aokiji for advice.

Qingshui and she winked at each other.

"Okay, let's find a place and go now!"

Tsunade said arrogantly, "Jiraiya, today I'll show you what a true genius is!"

One more chapter! I'm going to have dinner first!

By the way, I wish all my dear readers a happy National Day holiday!

What did everyone eat today?

Please give Xiaofan two tickets! OR2!!!

Chapter 95: Aokiji and Young Minato – The Big Shots of the Ninja World Have All Come to See!

Now!

On the training ground.

Qingshui and Shuimen stand facing each other.

On the sidelines, Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya sized up the two, creating a somewhat awkward atmosphere.

A struggle for the throne?

That's nowhere near as exaggerated.

The current top tier still consists of the three members of Hiruzen's team; the Hokage position isn't determined by one-on-one battles.

But I have to say, this scene has a slightly familiar feel to it…

Two fellow disciples who both seem to have designs on the Hokage position, no matter what their true thoughts are, even if they repeatedly say beforehand that it's just a simple sparring match, can't truly be innocent...

"Tsunade, just you wait and see, Minato's strength will definitely exceed your expectations!" Jiraiya popped open a bottle of champagne, seemingly already envisioning a golden flash as he instantly defeated Aoshui.

"Jiraiya, there are some things you should say later..."

Tsunade crossed her arms, her tone full of confidence: "Aoshui is a ninja who always inspires complete trust!"

Orochimaru watched Tsunade and Jiraiya arguing with amusement, narrowing his eyes slightly as he stared intently at Minato's figure.

Orochimaru was very curious about Minato Namikaze.

Just how talented was Minato Namikaze that Jiraiya seemed to have lost his mind, believing that his student had the potential to compete with him for the Hokage position in the near future?

Orochimaru even felt that if Jiraiya himself were competing for the Hokage position, he wouldn't be so confident...

"You brat from the Uchiha clan, work hard and try to get me to watch you a little longer..."

Orochimaru quietly added oil to Aoshui's oil, not taking Asuma's boasting seriously.

A Uchiha who knows the Second Hokage's Water Release techniques, the Senju clan's superhuman strength, and the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques.

That's enough. Do you think you can use a little bit of knowledge in real combat?

Jiraiya was amused by this!

However, it's understandable that Asuma, being a cute but helpless genin, might have poor judgment.

But there were others watching this competition.

After Madara Uchiha used his ultimate wisdom to determine that sincerity was the ultimate weapon to defeat Aozumi, he felt completely at ease.

Every day, I focus on maintaining my health, trying to make my meetings with Qingshui more presentable. Every now and then, I turn on the Baijue brand TV to see how Qingshui is doing...

Even though Aozumi couldn't be seen at the Senju ancestral home, Madara Uchiha remained very patient.

Just wait.

According to Black Zetsu's report, Obito Uchiha, the designated lackey and backup of Aokiji, has been completely controlled by Black Zetsu and could be turned to the dark side at any time.

Now, everything is ready, except for a sufficiently intense ninja world war...

"Lord Ban, wake up! Young Master Qing Shui didn't go to the Senju ancestral home today!"

In a daze, Madara Uchiha, who was taking a nap, heard White Zetsu calling him: "Young Master Qing Shui is going to fight someone. I heard that the blond guy on the other side knows that teleportation technique. He's a very troublesome opponent!"

Madara Uchiha was instantly awakened…

His younger brother and that damned Flying Thunder God Technique were scars on his heart that he could never heal in his lifetime.

Can Qingshui overcome this hurdle?

Hokage's office.

"Lord Mito, what brings you here? Please take some rest!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was watching the battle with his crystal ball, caught a glimpse of Mito Uzumaki out of the corner of his eye. He immediately stood up, gave up his seat, and went to greet her.

“Monkey, I’ve come here to talk to you about Qing Shui. This child is a bit special.”

Mito Uzumaki glanced out the window and said softly, "All Anbu, please step back."

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately formed hand seals and issued the command: "All of you, stand back!"

Mito Uzumaki, seated at the head of the table, was about to speak when she noticed the crystal ball in the center of the table, reflecting the images of Aokiji and Minato Namikaze. Intrigued, she picked it up.

Where are these two children?

"Lord Mito, it seems that Aomizu and Minato want to have a match..." Hiruzen Sarutobi said with an awkward smile.

He could see that this competition was an extension and a replacement of the conflicts among his disciples.

As for what conflicts exist, he, as the Hokage and his teacher, know best, but there's nothing he can do about it.

With such talented disciples and grand-disciples, yet only one position of Hokage, the matter can only be carefully considered...

"Hehe, I see..."

Mito Uzumaki glanced at the tense-faced members of Squad Hiruzen and instantly understood what was going on. She smiled and said, "Very good. Healthy competition will make Konoha's future even better."

"Monkey, sit down and take a look with me!"

Mito Uzumaki looked on with great interest, while Hiruzen Sarutobi gave a wry smile.

Why does this old lady still enjoy watching the excitement?

"Kid, do you know how many ways there are to counter the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

Aoshi blinked and said very obediently, "I don't know, please teach me, Lord Tobirama."

The unknown creator of the Flying Thunder God Technique, Tobirama Senju, who had been criticized by Jiraiya for its flaws, laughed with obvious satisfaction:

"It's okay if you don't know, I'll teach you!"

Tobirama Senju raised three fingers and said in a deep voice:

"First, the foundation of mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique is precise kunai throwing. The Flying Thunder God Technique's teleportation relies on coordinates. If the opponent's kunai throwing skill is comparable to one's own, the threat will be greatly reduced if the enemy knows this information."

"Secondly, every time the Flying Thunder God Technique is used for teleportation, the space travel will inevitably cause the user to freeze. If the enemy's nerve reaction speed is faster than the user's, then it is tantamount to sending the user to be attacked by the enemy."

"Third, due to its characteristics, the user of the Flying Thunder God Technique often uses close-range attacks. If the enemy has a way to enhance their physical body, they will also be put on the defensive."

Qing Shui nodded thoughtfully.

It's a strange feeling, like going to take an exam, only to have the examiner read out the answers on the blackboard before you even enter the exam room—it's like an open-book exam within an open-book exam…

Qingshui seemed to have discovered a blind spot: "I heard that your mortal enemy from back then, Uchiha Izuna, was severely injured by you using the Flying Thunder God Technique, but he fits the conditions for countering the Flying Thunder God Technique, doesn't he?"

"The Sharingan's dynamic vision, the Uchiha clan's swordsmanship and throwing techniques..."

When Tobirama Senju heard Aoshui mention this name, his brow twitched: "I developed the Flying Thunder God Technique because of him, so he didn't have a second chance to deal with me. He will always be my defeated opponent!"

"Anyway, kid, I've told you everything. Give this blondie a good beating later!"

Tobirama Senju said, quite displeased, "How dare he say that my technique has flaws? I'd like to see exactly what he's improved!"

And at this time.

Minato Namikaze, holding a trident kunai, smiled like a little sun and said softly, "Junior Brother Qingshui, are you ready?"

"Be careful, I'm very fast..."

Qingshui returned Minato Namikaze's smile: "Come on, Minato-senpai!"

In a blink of an eye!

Minato Namikaze appeared beside Aozumi...

He didn't use the Flying Thunder God Technique, but his Body Flicker Technique was fast enough that Orochimaru's pupils contracted.

He seemed unable to see things clearly...

At that moment, Jiraiya smiled, and Tsunade smiled too.

Minato's speed is getting faster and faster, it's just a pity he didn't get a chance to demonstrate the Flying Thunder God Technique...

Fight Qing Shui in close combat? That brat can only withstand seven-tenths of my strength...

Minato Namikaze was like a golden light, his kunai swiftly stabbing towards Aoshimizu's neck. A glint flashed in his eyes, and he knew this one strike would be enough to take him down!

At that moment, Qing Shui tilted his head slightly and met Minato Namikaze's gaze, a flash of red light appearing in his eyes!

Minato Namikaze froze for a moment, and then Aokiji's fist slammed into his abdomen, sending him flying!

“Senior Minato, you seem to have forgotten one thing: don’t make eye contact with an Uchiha who has three tomoe.”

Aokiji looked at Minato Namikaze, who was clutching his stomach, and said softly, "Although I'm just a genin, I do have some knowledge of what Asuma just mentioned I know..."
