Konoha's Hextech Ninja

However, Yagami Yoruichi's mastery of this ninjutsu is far from that of Senju Tobirama; it requires at least two hand seals.

This is one of the ninjutsu that a ninja who is proficient in water-style techniques like to use to change the terrain.

Once this area is completely submerged, it will become Yoruichi Yagami's home turf.

If a taijutsu-type ninja like Tsunade were to fall into the water, it would be extremely difficult for her to deal with Yoruichi Yagami's relentless attacks.

Fortunately, while the Water Release: Great Exploding Water Wave is very powerful in changing terrain, it also has a significant drawback: the process of forming the ninjutsu takes a certain amount of time.

"Painful Heavenly Kick!"

Tsunade slammed her foot heavily on the ground, and huge rocks rose from the ground, blocking the wave.

Meanwhile, more boulders emerged from the seabed and rose to the surface.

Tsunade leaped into the air, stepping on giant rocks, and quickly approached Yagami Yoruichi.

Just by glancing at Tsunade's speed, Yagami Yoruichi immediately realized that if she continued to maintain the Great Water Burst Wave, she would be caught up by Tsunade in less than a second and then be forced into close combat.

Although Yagami Yoruichi considered herself to be quite capable in close combat, she was not so arrogant as to think she could fight against a veteran Kage-level ninja like Tsunade, whose fighting style was closer to taijutsu.

Only by using long-range ninjutsu bombardment can we have a chance of winning.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yagami Yoruichi immediately stopped the Great Explosion Water Burst Wave.

However, the water that was created earlier is still flowing in the training field and has not disappeared.

As long as the chakra in the water doesn't completely dissipate, this water can remain for a very long time.

"Although it's not quite there yet, it still has a geographical advantage."

Yagami Yoruichi withdrew the chakra she had used to tread water, and with a splash, she fell into the water, using the 'Water Release: Water Body Flicker Technique' to move quickly.

Its speed was several times faster than Tsunade's when she was running at high speed.

The only drawback is that the Water Instantaneous Movement Technique can only be performed in the presence of water, which severely limits the applicability of this ninjutsu.

However, this moment was just right to help Yagami Yoruichi quickly create distance between herself and Tsunade.

"Want to escape?!"

Tsunade has incredibly rich combat experience, and she has even personally fought Hanzo of the Salamander, so she naturally knows how troublesome the Water Instantaneous Body Technique is.

Without hesitation, she punched the water, trying to use the current to transmit her strange strength to a distance.

Boom!

A terrifying giant wave rose again, almost forming a tsunami in size.

Swoosh~ Swoosh~ Swoosh~!

Several figures emerged from the water and rushed into the air.

It was clearly a clone.

Which one is the original body?

Tsunade quickly began to observe.

Five Yagami Yoruichis simultaneously formed various hand seals in different locations.

At most one of them is the original body, or they may all be clones.

In a short time, Tsunade was unable to distinguish between her main body and her clone, and could only subconsciously rush towards the nearest clone.

The short distance of a hundred meters passed in the blink of an eye. The shadow clone didn't have time to dive back into the water, and before it could finish releasing its ninjutsu, it was blasted apart by Tsunade's punch.

However, in the short time that was wasted, Yagami Yoruichi's main body and her three clones had already completed their respective ninjutsu.

"Water Release: Water Chaos Wave!"

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Severing Wave!"

"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"

Three water-style ninjutsu and one wind-style ninjutsu were activated simultaneously, attacking Tsunade from different directions.

Although those three water-style ninjutsu were powerful, they were merely a pretext to distract Tsunade.

The Wind Release: Vacuum Jewel, which is completely transparent and leaves almost no trace, is the trump card.

To make the disguise more convincing, when Yagami Yoruichi's main body used "Water Release: Water Chaos Wave," she even deliberately separated a portion of her chakra to shoot out two water pillars from the shadow clone who was using "Wind Release: Vacuum Ball," making it appear as if four water jutsu attacks simultaneously.

However, such tricks can be effective against ordinary ninjas, and even most elite Jonin.

However, Tsunade's combat experience was incredibly rich, and her perception was exceptionally sharp, allowing her to accurately detect Yoruichi Yagami's hidden killing intent.

Her response was even simpler.

No matter what kind of ninjutsu it is, a single punch with superhuman strength will smash it to pieces.

All of Yagami Yoruichi's attacks failed to get close to Tsunade and pose no real threat to her.

……

On the tower in the distance.

The two little girls stared in disbelief at the battle.

"Yoru... Is Yoruichi really the same age as us?" Nohara Rin stared blankly at the terrifying scene in the distance.

The terrain was drastically altered, and the scale of each ninjutsu was beyond her reach, no matter how hard she tried.

Its power was so great that even a mere aftershock could easily kill her.

Such terrifying strength, and this is a newly promoted genin who's not even eight years old?!

"Lady Tsunade is amazing! She didn't even use ninjutsu, she just used taijutsu to deal with Yoruichi's attack!" Kurenai Yuhi exclaimed with admiration.

She didn't understand the principle behind Tsunade's "Super Strength Fist" at all, thinking it was just a pure physical technique.

But this did not diminish her admiration and amazement at the two in the battle: "And Yoruichi-kun, he actually managed to fight Tsunade-sama like this, and it seems he even has the upper hand."

"Perhaps Lady Tsunade wasn't taking it too seriously?" Rin Nohara guessed. "Just like when she tested us earlier?"

The strength that Yagami Yoruichi has shown is terrifying.

However, the education she received from a young age instilled in Rin Nohara a deeply ingrained 'ranking of Konoha Village's strength' in her mind.

Excluding those powerful figures who have passed away, the number one spot undoubtedly belongs to the 'Strongest Hokage,' the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Below the Hokage are the legendary 'Sannin of Konoha,' each of whom possesses strength second only to the Third Hokage.

Further down are the other ninjas.

Even if a 'genius' like Yoruichi Yagami displayed incredible fighting power, in Rin Nohara's mind, she still couldn't compare to those established veteran powerhouses.

After all, those veteran powerhouses were all brilliant geniuses in their youth.

Nohara Rin's idea is certainly not wrong.

However, this set of standards can only be applied to ordinary geniuses like Kakashi Hatake and Inaho Uchiha.

Clearly, Yoruichi Yagami is not this kind of 'ordinary genius'.

The battle between Yagami Yoruichi and Tsunade was not so much 'world-destroying'.

They didn't even unleash their full power.

Tsunade did not use the chakra from the Yin Seal, nor did she summon a slug.

Yagami Yoruichi controls the power of her ninjutsu. Even with the largest-scale ninjutsu, she never uses more than a thousand points of her maximum chakra at a time, so as not to accidentally destroy the Senju clan's territory.

—If the injection of chakra were truly allowed to increase the scale of ninjutsu, Yagami Yoruichi's ninjutsu would cover a much wider area than just the training ground.

The Senju clan's training ground, though larger than Konoha Village's public training ground, is still an irregular oval shape with a diameter of only two or three kilometers.

It's nothing compared to the super-large training grounds that can easily span tens of kilometers in radius.

It's just a casual sparring match, not a life-or-death struggle, so there's no need to make a big fuss about it.

If Yagami Yoruichi were to truly unleash her chakra, the Senju clan's territory would likely be completely destroyed.

However, even this scene alone terrified the two little girls.

The legendary powerful ninjas who could destroy the world were actually real!

But amidst her fear, Kurenai was also secretly pleased, a sense of pride welling up within her: "Hehe, I have such good taste, I picked the most powerful one right away!"

These words slipped out unconsciously, and Nohara Rin couldn't help but look at Yuhi Kurenai.

Seeing the smile on her face, Nohara Rin immediately understood what she meant and said with envy, "Yes, Kurenai, you have such good taste. Yoruichi-kun is so amazing, no one will dare to bully you anymore!"

"Yoruichi-kun will protect Rin too, we're teammates!" Kurenai Yuhi, oblivious to the odd tone in Rin's voice, hugged her arm and said with a grin, "Tsunade-sama is amazing, we're so lucky. But the pressure is immense, we have to work hard and not let Tsunade-sensei and Yoruichi-kun down."

"Yes, I need to work hard!" Nohara Rin felt immense pressure.

She's the weakest in this team.

Looking at the terrifying battle scene in the distance, Nohara Rin couldn't imagine what kind of effort she would have to make to qualify as a member of the squad and not be a burden.

Remembering Yagami Yoruichi's previous instructions, Nohara Rin secretly made up her mind to study medical ninjutsu diligently.

If she takes the path of a combat ninja, she could never catch up with Kurenai Yuhi, let alone compare with a genius like Yoruichi Yagami.

Only by becoming a medical ninja can one have enough value to remain in the team.

Despite being young, their horizons were not very broad.

But Nohara Rin knew that for a commoner ninja like her, joining a powerful ninja squad was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Once you miss it, there will never be a second chance.

We must stay, no matter the cost.

……

Even though Yagami Yoruichi was trying her best to control the range of the ninjutsu, the terrifying tremor of the ninjutsu was detected by Konoha's protective barrier early on.

After tracing the source of the signal, the barrier team dared not delay and immediately reported it to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Looking through the 'telescope technique' into the crystal ball, Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent as he watched Yagami Yoruichi freely unleash her ninjutsu, forcing Tsunade to unleash her full strength with every move.

What kind of monster is this kid?

"No wonder Danzo wanted him."
