Konoha's Hextech Ninja

"Yoruichi-kun!" Seeing Yagami Yoruichi return in his true form, Kurenai Yuhi happily waved to him, "Come here quickly, I brought beef bowl today!"

Beef bowl, also known as beef rice bowl, is a type of common and affordable fast food.

However, if the beef were replaced with high-grade beef from the Land of Lightning, the price would immediately rise to a level that ordinary people could not afford.

Even ninjas couldn't bear to eat it too often.

It's only because Kurenai Yuhi has an elite Jonin-level father who can earn a lot of money from any mission, and because Kurenai Yuhi dotes on her daughter, that she would prepare such an expensive 'bento' for her.

"Yoruichi-kun, your physical training is intense, you need to replenish your nutrition, eat more." Kurenai Yuhi handed the bento box to Yoruichi Yagami like a precious gift, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Let's eat together. I also brought tempura and rice balls." Yagami Yoruichi naturally opened her lunchbox, placed it between the two of them, and picked up a piece of beef with her chopsticks.

The Japanese-style beef preparation didn't quite suit Yoruichi Yagami's taste, but high-quality beef can't be bad no matter how it's cooked.

With one bite, the aroma of beef and fat spreads in your mouth, making you want to eat more.

"It's great, very tender beef. Even though it's been in the lunchbox all morning, the taste hasn't gotten any worse. It's delicious." Yagami Yoruichi praised the little girl as soon as he saw her expectant eyes.

"Hehe." Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile, "Mom made it, and there's still a lot left, enough for the two of us."

"Don't just watch me eat, you eat too. The afternoon's practical class and the evening's training will both consume a lot of energy." Yagami Yoruichi picked up a piece of beef and handed it to Yuhi Kurenai's lips.

When performing this action, Yoruichi Yagami acted very naturally.

Kurenai's face flushed slightly as she opened her mouth and bit into the beef. Her eyes began to glaze over, showing signs of developing into a 'steam princess'.

"It's just feeding you, there's no need to be so shy, right?" Yagami Yoruichi wondered. Before, when the two of them finished training and went to eat in the shopping street, they often fed each other. Why was the reaction so strong today?

Suddenly, Yagami Yoruichi felt a prying gaze. Turning her head, she noticed the stares of her classmates and realized what was going on.

Many students stared with gossipy expressions at their 'interactions' with Kurenai Yuhi.

Although children in the ninja world are precocious, it is relatively rare for them to start dating in their first year.

No wonder Kurenai Yuhi suddenly became so shy.

The two of them should be a little closer in private, and their relationship should be more intimate and harmonious.

Yoruichi Yagami herself didn't care about these things, but Kurenai Yuhi couldn't ignore other people's opinions.

"What are you looking at? Eat your food!" Yagami Yoruichi unleashed her chakra, and an invisible sense of oppression instantly filled the rooftop.

The chakra burst of an elite Jonin-level ninja is not something a group of kids from a ninja academy can easily withstand. They were all terrified, their faces turning pale, and they quickly looked away, not daring to look any longer.

"Damn it, his strength has increased again..." Sarutobi Asuma felt a wave of depression as he experienced this terrifying pressure.

He trained desperately, wanting to surpass Yagami Yoruichi.

However, the gap between the two did not narrow; instead, it widened.

He couldn't wait to take action and teach Yagami Yoruichi a lesson.

However, the difference in strength between the two made Sarutobi Asuma unable to muster the courage to fight.

He couldn't afford to lose face if he got another scolding from Yoruichi Yagami.

Yoruichi Yagami was unaware of Asuma Sarutobi's thoughts.

After 'warning' the others, he quietly comforted Kurenai Yuhi. After saying a few words, Kurenai Yuhi's mood improved a lot, but she was still very shy, keeping her head down and not daring to look at the others. She only occasionally whispered a few words to Yoruichi Yagami before keeping her head down and eating her rice.

Yagami Yoruichi watched with amusement, as it was rare to see Kurenai Yuhi so shy.

Most of the time, she is very bold.

Since they met, this is only the second time that Yagami Yoruichi has seen the two in this state, which is close to that of a 'steam princess'.

Unfortunately, happy times are always short-lived.

By the time the practical class started in the afternoon, Kurenai Yuhi had adjusted her mindset and fully returned to normal.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

A series of crisp sounds rang out as eight shuriken struck the bullseye of eight different targets.

"Well done." Yagami Yoruichi said to Kurenai Yuhi, "Kurenai, you've improved a lot. You can throw eight shuriken in an instant and hit the target with each one. In terms of ninja tool throwing alone, you're already better than many regular ninjas."

When Yagami Yoruichi refers to a 'formal ninja,' she is obviously referring to a genin.

Kurenai Yuhi's talent was good, but her forte was genjutsu. Her ninja tool throwing was only at the level of a normal genius. Even with Yoruichi Yagami's frequent guidance and sparring, she was only slightly better than classmates like Asuma Sarutobi and Obito Uchiha, and not even close to Kakashi Hatake's level.

It's quite remarkable that someone could surpass most genin in their first year at the ninja academy.

"You're just saying nice things. My shuriken skills aren't even half as good as yours." Kurenai rolled her eyes.

She trained with Yagami Yoruichi every day, so she was naturally very clear about Yagami Yoruichi's strength.

Compared to Yoruichi Yagami, she was far from being a genius.

"Your current understanding of the eight shuriken is twofold: first, to continue increasing the number of shuriken thrown at once; second, to employ complex techniques to allow the shuriken to change direction two or even three times after being launched, enhancing their deceptive effect on the enemy." Yagami Yoruichi tactfully changed the subject, saying, "The first approach simply increases the shuriken's range and effect, providing cover for subsequent attacks. The second approach uses the shuriken as one of the core combat methods."

"I want to follow the path of a genjutsu-type ninja. The shuriken is just an auxiliary skill. I'll definitely choose the former." Kurenai Yuhi made her choice without the slightest hesitation.

“Eight shuriken is a threshold. Because a person only has five fingers on one hand, which can just hold four shuriken, the maximum number of shuriken in both hands is eight. If you want to increase the number further, you need to use some more complicated techniques. Let me teach you…” Yagami Yoruichi took out some shuriken from her ninja tool pouch and began to demonstrate to Yuhi Kurenai.

Chapter 64 Meeting the Parents?

After school, several more figures appeared on Konoha's public training ground.

Mitek's father, unusually, received a mission and, instead of accompanying Mitek in his training, naturally went to the training ground to train with Yagami Yoruichi and the others.

With the addition of Uchiha Tekka and Uchiha Inahisa, the number of people in this 'training group' has increased to six.

Yagami Yoruichi created two shadow clones.

The main body sparred with Kurenai Yuhi on genjutsu and how to break genjutsu. One shadow clone studied ninjutsu with the Uchiha brothers and Kakashi Hatake. The last shadow clone trained with Might Guy on chakra control.

This is Mite's weakness. He can't learn ninjutsu or genjutsu. While there are factors related to his talent, his poor chakra control is also a very important reason.

Of course, improving this weakness wouldn't make Metacritic a master of ninjutsu or genjutsu; in fact, due to his poor talent in these two areas, he would still find it very difficult to even begin to learn them.

However, improving chakra control will not be entirely without effect.

Even in taijutsu, the stronger one's chakra control, the better one can ensure that every bit of strength is used where it is needed, thus increasing speed, strength, and so on with the same amount of chakra and stamina.

For a ninja like Yoruichi Yagami who relies on ninjutsu, chakra control is even more important.

Yoruichi Yagami already had good chakra control, but after becoming Tsunade's student, it seemed somewhat insufficient.

Medical ninjutsu demands an almost abnormal level of chakra control. Even though Yoruichi Yagami's chakra control already surpasses that of many Jonin, she still struggles greatly when faced with the extremely high threshold of medical ninjutsu.

Fortunately, Tsunade also taught Yoruichi Yagami some techniques for improving her chakra control. As long as she trained step by step, even if her progress was slow, she would still be able to improve.

Moreover, at least so far, Yagami Yoruichi has not felt any strain.

Yagami Yoruichi had a vague feeling that the 'Rui Tian Di Template' that came with the system when it was activated gave him more than just an extremely overpowered attribute growth mechanism.

At the same time, it seems that he also inherited the magical talent of 'Ryze the Rune Mage'.

Otherwise, there's no way to explain why, when researching ninjutsu-related knowledge, I seem to have divine assistance, easily solving one problem after another and rapidly transforming and progressing.

On the contrary, apart from ninjutsu, Yoruichi Yagami's progress in other areas did not seem so abnormal.

Physical skills are even better, after all, there is a high bonus to 'from the heart to the object'. The value of the constitution attribute is there. Even if the technique is slightly lacking, you can still rely on the force of the brick to fly and have a good physical skills foundation.

However, illusion is a real weakness.

When she first started sparring with Kurenai Yuhi, Yoruichi Yagami was able to quickly find the flaws in the genjutsu and break free by relying on her understanding of ninjutsu and chakra.

However, as Kurenai Yuhi's talent for illusion magic came to fruition, Yoruichi Yagami began to find it increasingly difficult to keep up.

In the short term, they can still maintain a considerable advantage.

However, as Kurenai grows older and her genjutsu becomes stronger, Yoruichi Yagami will only be able to rely on her chakra to withstand it, and will be unable to counter her genjutsu through willpower, skills, or other means.

"Illusion - Dispel!"

Yagami Yoruichi disrupted the flow of chakra within his body, and the illusion before his eyes vanished instantly.

"Not bad, Kurenai." Yagami Yoruichi smiled at the little girl and commented, "Your 'Here Is Not the Right Place Technique' is already quite proficient. However, this technique is not suitable for direct confrontation, but more suitable as a means of ambush. If you want to use this technique in battle in the future, you should pay attention to the timing of its release."

Yoruichi Yagami wasn't particularly skilled in illusion techniques, but his vision was quite broad.

By personally experiencing Kurenai Yuhi's illusion effects, one can easily deduce the appropriate occasions and environments for each illusion.

Of course, the most suitable teacher for Kurenai Yuhi is actually her father, the genjutsu Jonin, Shinku Yuhi.

That was the most outstanding genjutsu master in Konoha Village, besides the Uchiha and Kurama bloodline clans.

Thinking of this, Yagami Yoruichi said to Yuhi Kurenai, "This weekend, which is tomorrow, I'm going to see my teacher. If Uncle Kurenai has time, you can ask him to teach you how to reduce the size of the illusion!"

"You don't have time to train with me on the weekend?" Kurenai Yuhi asked, looking sullen. "Fine, then I'll have Dad train with me."

"The teacher wants to test my learning progress. It should be able to be resolved in a day or half a day." Yagami Yoruichi smiled and patted Yuhi Kurenai's head gently, saying, "I'll come find you after the test. I'll train with you then."

It was only when she reached out her hand that Yagami Yoruichi suddenly noticed.

Last semester, the two were about the same height.

Now, he is more than half a head taller than Kurenai Yuhi.

Logically speaking, girls should develop earlier.

But now it's actually Yagami Yoruichi who started developing earlier and is growing faster.

She's only a few months away from being seven years old, but she's already nearly 1.4 meters tall.

Kurenai Yuhi is considered relatively tall among her peers, but she is only a little over 1.2 meters tall, much shorter than Yoruichi Yagami.

"Is it because of his high physique score?" A thought flashed through Yagami Yoruichi's mind, but he didn't think about it any further.

“By the way, Yoruichi-kun.” Kurenai suddenly looked up at Yoruichi Yagami and said cautiously, “My father said he would like to invite Yoruichi-kun to come to our house when he has time.”

"Huh?" Yagami Yoruichi was taken aback, and subconsciously sensed something was wrong.

Could it be that Kurenai Yuhi heard about their affair and thought her daughter was going to be lured away by this 'blonde' guy, so she set up the Feast at Hongmen?

Seeing that Yagami Yoruichi's expression was different, Kurenai quickly said, "If Yoruichi-kun is not free, it's okay, I'll cancel it for him."

That cautious demeanor seemed to be as if she was afraid of making Yagami Yoruichi feel even the slightest displeasure.

"I'm just a little surprised why Uncle Kurenai suddenly invited me." Yagami Yoruichi came back to his senses, smiled and rubbed Kurenai's little head, and said, "I'm going to the teacher's place this weekend, so how about Sunday night? If that's not possible, next week is fine too."

"Okay, I'll go back and tell Dad!" Kurenai Yuhi's face immediately lit up with a smile when Yoruichi Yagami agreed, and she nodded her little head vigorously.

"Alright, continue your training," Yagami Yoruichi urged. "When you can control me with your genjutsu for more than three seconds, you'll be considered to have passed the initial stage. With your current physical skills, it will take at least three seconds to pose a threat to me. Your current level is far from the limit of your talent."

Chapter 65 Tsunade's Test

Training, dating, working at Ichiraku Ramen, and then going home to sleep.

Yoruichi Yagami's life is so regular that it's like a precise, ergonomic machine.

But with the little girl Kurenai Yuhi by her side, it wasn't boring at all; on the contrary, it made Yoruichi Yagami feel like she was enjoying herself.

The process of her constantly improving strength and transformation gave Yagami Yoruichi a sense of security in this chaotic world.

On Saturday morning, Yagami Yoruichi arrived at the Senju clan's territory as promised.

I knocked on the door, but only silence answered.

"Tsunade-sama is still sleeping..." Shizune knew why Yagami Yoruichi had come, and with an embarrassed expression, explained, "Tsunade-sama went to bed late last night, so..."

The reason is plausible, but as for why you rested late, don't worry about that.

Yoruichi Yagami was not surprised. Given Tsunade's personality, she would either gamble or drink; there was no third option.

"It's alright, I'll just wait a bit." Yagami Yoruichi said with a smile, "Perfect timing, I've been having some difficulties with my studies lately. You started earlier, could you give me some pointers?"

The knowledge related to medicine is not only vast in quantity, but also very difficult.

Tsunade simply dumped a bunch of related books on Yoruichi Yagami, but never inquired about Yoruichi's studies, let alone offered any guidance on her training.

Yoruichi Yagami has good comprehension and self-learning abilities, but there are still some things that she can only memorize temporarily and cannot fully understand.

"Huh? Me? Guidance?" Shizune was stunned, not expecting Yagami Yoruichi to make this request, and stood there dumbfounded.

Seeing that Shizune was silent, Yagami Yoichi realized that she had misunderstood and quickly said, "It's okay if you don't want to."

"No, that's not what I meant..." Shizune came to her senses, blushed, and said, "It's just that my level is limited, and there are many things I don't understand..."

“Consider this a discussion. You started earlier than me, and you've learned more, so your skill level is definitely higher.” Seeing that Shizune was willing to guide him, Yagami Yoruichi didn't give her a chance to argue further. He took out a storage scroll, formed hand seals, and took out several books. He opened one of them, pointed to a section, and asked, “The part about neural structures here…”

"This is indeed very difficult. I didn't understand it at the time either. According to Tsunade-sama's guidance, the key point is this..." When Shizune saw this knowledge point, although it was difficult, it was indeed within her ability. She breathed a sigh of relief and began to guide Yagami Yoruichi.
