Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Yagami Yoruichi was referring to the idea behind a series of 'Chidori Stream' ninjutsu developed by Uchiha Sasuke in the future.

As for improving reaction speed, that's very difficult to achieve.

Reaction speed is largely determined by genetics, and training can have very limited effect.

As for using ninjutsu, at least among the ninjutsu that Yagami Yoruichi knew, there were no techniques that could significantly improve reaction speed.

"Change the form of ninjutsu?" Kakashi Hatake pondered.

He was aware of the problem with his reaction speed, but he was more concerned about how to improve it.

After listening to Yagami Yoruichi's words, he realized that since the biggest fear when using 'Chidori' is that he can't react in time when the enemy counterattacks, he could simply start from another angle and make it difficult for the enemy's counterattack to threaten him.

One method is to dodge by reacting.

But why not improve your defense and withstand the enemy's counterattack?

Alternatively, if Chidori were modified into a mid-to-long-range ninjutsu for long-range attacks, wouldn't that provide greater room for maneuver?

In an instant, countless ideas popped into Kakashi Hatake's head, and he couldn't wait to verify them.

Coming to his senses, he realized that he was still sparring with Yagami Yoruichi. He paused for a moment before quickly saying, "I lost this time."

Although Yagami Yoruichi's ninjutsu did not actually hit him, Hatake Kakashi knew that Yagami Yoruichi had deliberately dispelled the ninjutsu.

Kakashi Hatake would never deliberately find an excuse to be stubborn and refuse to admit defeat at this point.

Given his pride, he believes that to win, one must win honorably and fairly.

If you lose, just admit defeat gracefully.

"Since I lost to you, it means I still have a lot to learn at the Ninja Academy. I will postpone my graduation application." Kakashi Hatake looked at Yoruichi Yagami and said, "You'd better train hard, or I'll surpass you."

"Haha, I'll try my best." Yagami Yoruichi laughed and changed the subject, taking the initiative to invite, "How about we train together during the holidays? I have to work during winter break, but I'm free during the day."

"Shall we train together?" Kakashi Hatake nodded and said, "I'll be there on time."

He doesn't think much of his classmates.

However, Kakashi Hatake is quite interested in training with Yoruichi Yagami and sparring with her from time to time.

……

On the other side.

Inside the Hokage's office.

"Kakashi really lost." Maruboshi Kosuke wasn't surprised by the result at all, but he was quite surprised by Yagami Yoruichi's performance: "Yoruichi, this kid, has actually started researching the 'forward' hand seal? Last time, she didn't show it. To be able to perform three transformations of a ninjutsu, even some special Jonin who are proficient in a single attribute can only do that in their most proficient ninjutsu, right?"

Special Jonin, although not officially Jonin, still have the title of 'Jonin' and are considered to be of a relatively high rank in the village.

They even had the right to participate in the Kainin Conference, which meant they possessed a certain amount of power.

Such a status would naturally be taken seriously by the village, and they would be very careful in both allocating quotas and conducting assessments.

For a student at a ninja academy, especially a first-year student, to reach this level is unprecedented in the history of Konoha.

"Kakashi Hatake is pretty good too. To be able to create his own ninjutsu at this age, even though it's just a prototype, has great potential if it continues to be perfected," Minato Namikaze commented.

Although he also believed that Yagami Yoruichi was a genius, he preferred Kakashi Hatake, who was a 'speed type', based on his own characteristics. Kakashi's style was similar to his own, and he was more suitable to be his student.

Both Kosuke Mimaru and Minato Namikaze had high hopes for Yoruichi Yagami and Kakashi Hatake. Hiruzen Sarutobi pressed his advantage, advising, "How about it? Why don't you two consider taking these two disciples as your disciples?"

“I quite like Kakashi, but at my age, isn’t it a bit too early to take him on as a disciple?” Minato Namikaze hesitated. “If I were to train a disciple, my own training time would be reduced, and I don’t know when I would be able to master the Flying Thunder God Technique.”

Minato Namikaze has acquired the Flying Thunder God Technique, but he hasn't fully mastered it yet and needs a lot of time.

Even if Minato Namikaze was a top genius, he couldn't master forbidden techniques at the space-time level in a short period of time.

"We can finalize this first, and then he can take on apprentices after he graduates," Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

Minato Namikaze hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "In that case, as long as Sakumo-senpai agrees, I will become Kakashi's mentor after he graduates."

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in satisfaction, looked at Kosuke Maruhoshi, and asked, "Kosuke, what do you say? You're entrusting Yoruichi Yagami to me?"

Given Maruhoshi Kosuke's experience, even Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't force him to take on a disciple. He could only offer a subtle suggestion: "Danzo has also taken a liking to this child. You know him well. I can keep him in check for a while, but I can't keep an eye on him all the time..."

Danzo Shimura?

How could any genius who falls into his hands possibly be any good?

Maruhoshi Kosuke was still hesitant, but upon hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, he immediately said, "Give this child to me! Such an outstanding genius cannot be allowed to be ruined by Danzo!"

Chapter 35 [The Embrace of the Blazing Angel], Strength Surges!

Gain 22 gold coins and 1 Spirit attribute.

A new day begins, and a system notification pops up.

Yagami Yoruichi opened the system shop, glanced at the remaining balance of over 1300 gold coins, and directly bought the last piece of the [Archangel's Staff], [Grimoire of Evil], and then chose to combine the three pieces of equipment in her equipment slot, [Tears of the Goddess], [Lost Chapters], and [Grimoire of Evil], into the [Archangel's Staff].

The passive effect of [Tears of the Goddess] was already fully stacked. The moment it was combined, [Archangel's Staff] directly evolved into [Embrace of the Seraphim].

【熾天使之擁：+70法術強度、1000查克拉上限、25技能急速。‘敬畏’：被動，獲得相當於2%查克拉上限的法術強度。‘救主靈刃’：被動，在生命值跌下30%時，獲得持續3秒、相當於查克拉上限18%的護盾值（冷卻時間一個自然日）。】

After equipping the [Embrace of the Seraph], Yoruichi Yagami could clearly feel that her physical attributes and chakra limit had increased significantly.

Furthermore, with the activation of the Hextech [Mind Over Matter] and the passive [Arcane Specialization], all attributes continued to slowly increase, taking more than an hour to gradually stabilize.

Sensing that her physical enhancement had stopped, Yagami Yoruichi opened the system interface to check her attributes.

……

Embrace of the Blazing Angel

……

"His physical abilities have reached the Jonin level, and his chakra reserves are even more abnormal, equivalent to three times that of the most ordinary Jonin."

"It's just that the mental attribute is a bit weak, which makes it somewhat vulnerable to illusions."

Yagami Yoruichi nodded in satisfaction as she looked at the stats that had increased dramatically.

Thanks to the blessing of the 'Rui Tian Di Template', the left foot steps on the right foot, and all attributes are improved in a cycle.

The boost that a piece of equipment brings to Yoruichi Yagami far exceeds the base stats of the equipment itself.

This is only one item: [Embrace of the Scorching Angel].

Each subsequent piece of equipment collected will cause Yoruichi Yagami's stats to increase even further.

That's the charm of numerical monsters.

There is no mechanism; it all comes down to numerical crushing.

The only thing that troubled Yoruichi Yagami was the [Spirit] attribute.

Due to the different rules of the world, the 'life points' in the original Rui Tian Di numerical cycle became the 'constitution' attribute in the Naruto world, making up for the shortcomings of the body.

However, the 'spirit' attribute did not improve in sync, and could only grow naturally with the help of Yoruichi Yagami and the small amount of attribute provided occasionally by the [red envelope], resulting in an extremely slow growth rate.

This has little impact in ordinary battles, but it would undoubtedly be a very troublesome thing if facing an opponent who is good at illusions.

During the winter break, Kurenai Yuhi has learned two illusion techniques: 'Magic - Naraku's Sight Technique' and 'Kasumi Servant Technique'.

Although they were only D-rank illusions, combined with Kurenai Yuhi's extremely strong Yin Release talent, they still made Yoruichi Yagami feel quite troubled.

Even with Kurenai Yuhi's help, Yoruichi Yagami put a lot of effort into resisting and breaking the illusion, but it still took her a second or two to break Kurenai Yuhi's illusion.

This was just a D-rank illusion cast by Kurenai Yuhi when she was a child.

If she were to encounter a Jonin from the Uchiha clan who is skilled in genjutsu, or even one of the future genjutsu masters with the Mangekyou Sharingan, there is no doubt that Yagami Yoruichi's current ability to resist genjutsu would be absolutely insufficient.

However, Yoruichi Yagami had no clue how to improve her 'spirit' attribute and enhance her resistance to illusions, so she could only put the matter aside for the time being.

Anyway, I still have a long way to go before graduating from the ninja academy, so I have plenty of time to improve myself.

Once the six divine items are acquired, the 'Emperor Ruitian Template' will grow into its complete form. Perhaps, relying solely on its massive chakra, it will naturally possess extremely powerful genjutsu resistance.

"In another ten days or so, I'll be able to buy the second Goddess Tear. For the next Tear equipment, I'll get the Ice Armor (Doomsday Winter). The Ice Armor can convert chakra into physical strength, which is much better than the Demon Cutter in terms of improving survivability."

A thought flashed through Yagami Yoruichi's mind. He closed the system interface, got up, washed up, changed his clothes, and headed straight for the market on the edge of the village.

After purchasing all the ingredients needed for the day at Ichiraku Ramen, I pushed the heavy cart to the ramen shop.

When we arrived at the ramen shop, it was still dark, and it was only a little past three in the morning.

Inside the ramen shop, the still very young Teuchi Ichiraku was already busy simmering broth and preparing sauces.

Hearing the commotion outside the door, Shouda Yile hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Hey, Yoruichi, you're on time again today." Teda Ichiraku didn't just stand by and watch Yoruichi work alone, taking advantage of his position as the employer. Instead, he worked together with Yoruichi to carry hundreds of pounds of various ingredients into the store.

Of course, Teuchi is just an ordinary person after all. Although he often does physical labor, his strength, endurance and so on are far inferior to that of Yagami Yoruichi, the 'ninja'. Most of the work is still done by Yagami Yoruichi.

This is also the meaning of employing ninjas.

Even for the most basic, unskilled manual labor, a ninja's work efficiency can match that of dozens of ordinary people, saving a great deal of time.

"These are today's purchase invoices and receipts." Yagami Yoruichi handed the invoices and receipts to Teuchi Ichiraku for inspection.

"Is the advance I gave you for purchasing almost gone?" Teuchi Ichiraku glanced at the invoices a few times, estimated the prices of the ingredients in his mind, and, finding them roughly inexpensive, put them away, returned the ledger to Yagami Yoruichi, and said, "Wait a moment, the broth will be ready soon. Eat at the shop before you leave, and pick up this week's pay and next week's purchasing funds while you're at it."

Yagami Yoruichi's job is to help her partner buy ingredients and steal food from others every day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

In the morning, fresh vegetables, meat, seafood, and other fresh ingredients that need to be processed on the same day are delivered. In the evening, noodles for making ramen and ingredients for broth are delivered, making it convenient for Teuchi Ichiraku to prepare noodles, broth, and other ingredients for the next day after the ramen shop closes.

The cost of the purchases was naturally paid from the ramen shop's account. Teuchi Ichiraku knew about Yagami Yoruichi's situation and wouldn't let her pay out of her own pocket first.

Despite being open for less than a month, Ichiraku Ramen has won over Konoha with its excellent taste and affordable prices. Business is booming, and it doesn't lack working capital.

Upon hearing that Teji Ichiraku was going to treat her to a meal, Yagami Yoruichi smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite. Teji-san's ramen is definitely the best ramen I've ever had."

I'm very happy to be a chef. Besides making money, the happiest thing for me is to gain the genuine recognition of my customers.

Upon hearing Yagami Yoruichi's words, Teuichi Ichiraku proudly declared, "Of course! I have a secret recipe! When it comes to ramen, no one in the entire Land of Fire can surpass my skills!"

Chapter 36 Kakashi: Are you sure you're not a Senju clansman?

To say that Ichiraku Ramen is so delicious that it's like something out of a food anime, making it irresistible, is a bit of an exaggeration.

However, in the Naruto world, it is indeed a very cost-effective delicacy at a relatively low and affordable price.

The soup is delicious and rich, the noodles are dry and chewy, and even the side dishes are impeccable.

No wonder so many ninjas in the original work loved Ichiraku Ramen the most.

Yagami Yoruichi quickly finished the 'Super Deluxe Special Edition Tonkotsu Ramen' that Teuchi Ichiraku had specially prepared for her, hurriedly said goodbye to Teuchi Ichiraku, and prepared to leave: "Uncle Teuchi, I'm going to train. I'll come back to deliver the goods for you tonight. Is the order still the same as before?"

"Wait a minute." Tetsuichi called out to Yagami Yoruichi, took out a stack of banknotes from under the counter, counted them, and handed them to Yagami Yoruichi, saying, "Fifteen hundred ryo is your salary from last week, and the rest is for this week's purchasing expenses. As for the list, keep it the same as before."

"1,500 taels?" Yagami Yoruichi paused as she took the money, and asked in confusion, "Wasn't it supposed to be 1,200 taels? Uncle Tetsuji, you've already taken good care of me by providing me with two meals a day."

The agreed-upon reward was 1,200 taels of silver, but meals were not included.
