Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Unless one can use shadow clones to cheat, learning too many things at once will inevitably lead to insufficient specialization, thus preventing one from fully utilizing their potential.

In addition, there's the 'Water Release - Water Chaos Wave' technique, which still needs continuous improvement.

These three ninjutsu techniques are enough for Yagami Yoruichi to study for quite some time.

As Yagami Yoruichi was pondering this, she suddenly realized something: "Wait a minute, I can learn Shadow Clone Technique!"

When a shadow clone dissipates, it transmits its memories back to the original body.

It has a great auxiliary effect on cultivation.

Ordinary ninjas can't use it because their chakra reserves are insufficient. In addition, when the shadow clones dissipate, not only do they bring back the memories of their training, but also fatigue and other factors are transmitted back to the original body.

If too much fatigue accumulates in an instant, there is a possibility of sudden death.

However, given Yagami Yoruichi's chakra reserves and physique, as long as she controls the number of shadow clones, the risk is not too great.

Even if you only create one shadow clone, your cultivation efficiency can double.

However, since Kosuke Maruboshi didn't teach him Shadow Clone Technique, perhaps there were other considerations?

Yagami Yoruichi hesitated for a moment, then decided to put the problem aside for the time being and learn the two ninjutsu left behind by Maruboshi Kosuke first.

But not today.

Yagami Yoru carefully put the scroll away, looked at Kurenai Yuhi, and said, "You're here early today, so I'll practice shuriken throwing with you first. We'll practice genjutsu this afternoon."

Previously, Kurenai Yuhi would only come in the afternoon, and the two of them mainly practiced illusion techniques.

With Yagami Yoruichi as the 'target,' Kurenai Yuhi casts an illusion on him, and Yoruichi tries every possible way to break free from the illusion as quickly as possible.

This method can improve Kurenai Yuhi's proficiency in illusions and also enhance Yoruichi Yagami's ability to resist and break illusions, which is a win-win situation.

However, if Kurenai were to practice genjutsu all day, her chakra reserves would be insufficient, so Yoruichi Yagami immediately adjusted her training plan.

"You two..." Kakashi Hatake's voice was weak and listless, "Have you forgotten there's someone else here? If I'm disturbing your date, I can leave now."

"Huh?! A date or something..." Kurenai's face turned bright red instantly, and she was at a loss for words.

"Stop messing around," Yagami Yoruichi said, somewhat exasperated.

I did forget that Kakashi Hatake was still around, but there was a reason for that.

First, she showed Maruboshi Kosuke her training results, then accepted his guidance, and then Kurenai Yuhi arrived.

Kakashi Hatake perfectly concealed his presence, making him completely invisible, so it's normal that I didn't remember him for a moment.

Now, however, he uses these words to make fun of himself and Kurenai Yuhi.

But for some reason, when she heard Kakashi Hatake say that the two of them were on a 'date', Yoruichi Yagami felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

But at this age, isn't it a bit too early to talk about dating?

Yoruichi Yagami's thoughts couldn't help but wander, and she almost came up with a name for her child.

"Everyone in the school knows you two are a couple." Kakashi Hatake stared at Yoruichi Yagami and Kurenai Yuhi with dead fish eyes and teased, "I wouldn't be surprised if you got married right after graduation."

Yoruichi Yagami knew that Kakashi Hatake was joking on purpose, so she didn't think anything of it.

However, Kurenai was extremely shy and was already showing signs of transforming into a 'steam princess'.

"That's enough," Yagami Yoruichi said irritably. "Do you still want to train?"

"So what's the next project? Shuriken throwing?" When the topic of training came up, Kakashi Hatake stopped joking with the two of them and instantly became serious.

Yagami Yoru nodded and said, "Let's practice shuriken throwing. School starts in a few days, and shuriken throwing will be included in the practical assessment next semester. It's better to practice in advance."

Shuriken throwing is one of Kakashi Hatake's strengths.

However, Yoruichi Yagami is not weak either.

When I hired Ikkaku Umino as a sparring partner, he taught Yoruichi Yagami some shuriken throwing techniques.

Later, he became friends with Kakashi Hatake and learned some unique skills from him.

Although she is still not as skilled as Kakashi Hatake, Yoruichi Yagami's superior physical abilities and powerful shuriken make her more threatening than Kakashi Hatake.

Kurenai, on the other hand, is too young and physically weak, with her physical skills and shuriken throwing being her weaknesses.

Yoruichi Yagami specifically suggested extra shuriken throwing practice, also with the intention of helping Kurenai Yuhi improve her strength.

Chapter 39 "Who invites a girl to eat ramen?!"

"Magic Illusion - The Technique of Seeing the Abyss!"

The surrounding environment changed rapidly, turning into a battlefield.

Towering trees filled the entire field of vision, and in the night sky above, the moon's surface glowed with a blinding crimson, with nine black tomoe intertwined in swirling ripples.

It was a scene from when 'Infinite Tsukuyomi' was activated.

The 'Magic - Naraku's Appearance Technique' will evoke the strongest fear in people's hearts.

For Yagami Yoruichi, the thing she fears most is encountering an invincible opponent, such as the Otsutsuki clan, before she has enough strength.

Although it wasn't the first time she had faced this illusion, Yagami Yoruichi was still slightly stunned by the realistic scene.

Startled for a moment, Yagami Yoruichi came to her senses and formed the 'Ren' hand seal, disrupting the flow of chakra within her body.

As the chakra flow was disrupted, the scene created by the illusion quickly dissipated, and Yagami Yoruichi's consciousness returned to reality.

“It’s much faster than before, Yoruichi-kun.” Seeing that Yoruichi had regained consciousness, Kurenai Yuhi stopped the timer in her hand and showed the time to Yoruichi: “It only took 0.6 seconds to break free from the genjutsu.”

At first, when Kurenai Yuhi had just learned the 'Magic - Naraku's Appearance Technique', it took Yoruichi Yagami about two seconds to break free.

After intensive training over most of the winter break, Yoruichi Yagami is now able to break free from the control of illusions in a fraction of a second, which is a significant improvement.

"It's still a bit slow," Yagami Yoruichi sighed. "Kurenai, your control over illusions has improved again."

Yoruichi Yagami is improving, but so is Kurenai Yuhi.

Her physical talent was relatively average, but her talent in Yin Release was second only to the Uchiha and Kurama clans, who were skilled in Yin Release.

His progress, especially in illusion magic, has been rapid.

At first, the illusion created by Kurenai Yuhi was quite crude.

But now, the illusion has become so realistic that even Yoruichi Yagami has difficulty distinguishing between reality and illusion in an instant.

If it weren't for the unique nature of the 'Naraku-sight Technique,' if it were a more subtle illusion technique, Yagami Yoruichi might not have been able to realize she was trapped in it immediately.

Although Kurenai Yuhi only learned two D-rank illusions.

However, with just these two genjutsu, and with the cooperation of her teammates, she can play a role that is no less than that of an ordinary Chunin.

The downside is that a pure illusionist ninja has too few tricks up their sleeve, and it becomes dangerous if their illusions fail to produce immediate results.

However, as a first-year student at the Ninja Academy, Kurenai Yuhi still has enough time to continue improving her skills and making up for her weaknesses.

"That's enough for today." Yagami Yoruichi could tell that Kurenai Yuhi's chakra was almost depleted.

Her chakra level was quite good by the standards of a ninja academy student, but it couldn't compare to that freak, Yoruichi Yagami.

After practicing shurikenjutsu and taijutsu all day and genjutsu all night, Kurenai Yuhi's chakra was already completely depleted.

"Let's take a break." Yagami Yoruichi took out a water glass and handed it to Yuhi Kurenai. The two sat down side by side on a rock.

“Your genjutsu is already very powerful. You just need to continue to improve your proficiency.” Yagami Yoruichi thought for a moment and then said, “Also, pure genjutsu-type ninjas are too easy to be countered. You need to put more effort into taijutsu and shuriken, so that you won’t be unable to fight when your genjutsu is no longer effective.”

"Okay!" Kurenai looked tired, but was still in a great mood, smiling as she said to Yoruichi, "With Yoruichi-kun training with me, I feel like my strength is improving very quickly. Even my dad says I'm a genius!"

"Your strength has indeed improved very quickly." Yagami Yoruichi nodded with a smile.

Compared to herself, Kurenai Yuhi's improvement in strength was almost negligible.

However, compared to other students, Kurenai Yuhi's improvement during this winter break can only be described as astonishing.

She'll definitely give everyone a huge surprise when school starts.

Yagami Yoruichi was thinking to herself.

After resting for a while, the two got up and prepared to leave.

Kakashi Hatake had already been called home by Sakumo Hatake around dinner time, so he didn't need to worry about this 'third wheel'.

As they passed through Konoha's commercial street, the aromas wafting from the restaurants and snack shops on both sides of the street made Yagami Yoruichi feel a little hungry. He turned to Kurenai Yuhi and asked, "Are you hungry? Let me treat you to a meal."

Yagami Yoruichi remembered clearly that Kurenai Yuhi had said that morning that her father had gone on a mission and was not at home.

It was already late, and if she went home and cooked by herself, who knew how long it would take.

We might as well just eat out together.

Upon hearing Yagami Yoruichi's words, Kurenai Yuhi blushed slightly, as if she had thought of something, but quickly recovered and said generously, "Okay, I want to eat that!"

Yagami Yoruichi looked in the direction Kurenai Yuhi was pointing and saw a snack shop selling takoyaki.

Yoruichi Yagami remembers that in the Naruto setting, Kurenai Yuhi's favorite food is wasabi octopus, which is similar to the main ingredients of takoyaki.

However, wasabi octopus is more suitable as a snack with drinks, and it's normal for Kurenai Yuhi to prefer takoyaki at her age.

Since Kurenai wanted to eat, Yoruichi Yagami didn't say much. He simply pulled her to the snack stall and said, "Boss, two servings of takoyaki, please."

"Alright, two orders of takoyaki." The owner quickly made the takoyaki while asking, "What kind of sauce do you want? We have salad dressing, ketchup, hot sauce, and wasabi."

"I want wasabi!" Kurenai Yuhi said impatiently.

Yagami Yoruichi glanced at it a few times before saying, "I want hot sauce."

The snacks were prepared quickly; after only a few minutes, two servings of takoyaki were packed into a small paper box and handed to the two people.

Yagami Yoruichi paid the money, skewered a takoyaki on a bamboo stick, and stuffed it into his mouth.

The umami flavor and the sweet and spicy sauce made Yagami Yoruichi's appetite soar, and she finished a serving of takoyaki in no time.

"This doesn't seem like enough." Yagami Yoruichi rubbed his stomach, looked at Yuhi Kurenai who was still taking small bites of takoyaki, and asked, "How about we get some more staple food? Ramen?"

"Hey!" Kurenai couldn't help but frown and say speechlessly, "Who invites a girl out for ramen on their first date?"

"Can't I treat a girl to ramen?" Yagami Yoruichi scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

However, considering that the customs of the ninja world were different from those of Yagami Yoruichi's previous life, Yagami Yoruichi didn't dwell on it and directly asked, "Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

Kurenai Yuhi's gaze swept over the restaurant signs along the street, and she couldn't help but hesitate.

Yagami Yoruichi could tell that she wasn't hesitating because of what to eat, because her gaze had lingered on a particular sign for a long time, clearly indicating that she wanted to eat at this restaurant.
