Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage

Chapter 51 My junior brother is too strong!

In the village of Yugakure, a rare light drizzle fell at night.

Yahiko stood at the entrance of the cave, gazing at the rain outside, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

"When I was in the Land of Rain, I hated the weather that was always raining, but when I went outside and suddenly saw a rainy day like this, I felt a bit nostalgic."

Xiao Nan looked outside, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "After all, it is our country."

No matter how bad their motherland is, they still hope to make it better, rather than abandon it.

"Yahiko, Konan, I'm back."

Kyusuke's voice came from outside.

In the rain, he ran quickly towards the scene wearing a raincoat. After observing him for a while, Xiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's Kyusuke."

"Although we came with other Amegakure ninja, Kyusuke came through legitimate channels, so no one was following him."

Yahiko sat down to warm himself by the fire.

Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Nan's gaze suddenly sharpened, and she formed a hand seal with both hands.

"Who is it?"

"I searched for a long time. Luckily you needed to go out to buy food, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome."

Kyohiko's voice came from outside.

Kyusuke turned around abruptly, his face showing surprise.

"You...you're the person from the daytime?"

"During the day, in the peaceful village, I don't want to take action. This time, I think we can have a proper talk about why you're following the people of Konoha."

As Jingyan spoke, he formed a hand seal.

One is divided into two, two are divided into eight.

The eight figures were all so real that it was impossible to tell what was real and what was fake.

Xiao Nan immediately changed her hand seals, and then sheets of paper flew out from the surrounding mountain walls, transforming into shuriken that attacked the eight Jingyans.

however.

Amidst the flashing blades and swirling swords in the darkness, the eight figures dodged or shattered all the numerous shuriken.

"Misunderstand!"

Doji shouted.

but.

Seeing the enemy charging towards them...

He could only draw his knife.

Kyusuke swung his sword at the person in front of him, only to see the figure vanish and reappear in the cave behind him.

What?

How is that possible?

This……

too fast!

He couldn't believe it, and it was too late to stop him.

Yahiko observed for a while, then formed hand seals and unleashed a barrage of water needles towards the left, but the ninjutsu quickly passed through the opponent.

when!

From his right side, he pulled out a kunai from his sleeve, grasped it in his hand, and instantly blocked the knife coming from his right.

Yahiko kicked Kyohiko with a backhand kick.

but.

The figure in front disappeared in the next instant.

Whoosh!

Konan transformed into pieces of paper, flying in all directions before finally gathering around Yahiko.

Yahiko took a deep breath.

He understood.

Of the eight people, only two were in physical form, but the opponent's teleportation technique was too fast, and combined with their deceptively realistic clone technique, it became extremely difficult to deal with.

Each one could be a physical entity, but each one could also be a virtual entity.

Unless one can limit its speed with ninjutsu or possess extremely strong perception, it is very difficult to break through this terrifying combination of ninjutsu techniques.

of course.

There's another way...

Just be faster than the other person!

"You are very fast, but you are too young. If you grow a few more years, this kind of fighting style may really be unstoppable."

Standing by the fire, Yahiko exclaimed in amazement, "You have such incredible talent. If you continue to grow, you might just become the next White Fang of Konoha."

His performance greatly surprised Yahiko and Konan.

too strong!

Previously, he also felt...

The rumor that Iwagakure sent elites to deal with a child might seem exaggerated, but now it seems that's not the case; in fact, it may have underestimated the situation.

With Yoshimine Kyohiko's strength and talent, no ninja village that is hostile to Konoha could suppress their desires.

The teacher is so lucky!

Yahiko sighed inwardly.

First it was Nagato, then Minato Namikaze of Konoha, and now it's Yoshimine Kyohiko.

They're all geniuses!

Sure enough, the teacher has good fortune.

Peace in the ninja world depends on our teacher.

After composing himself, Yahiko said, "Konoha and Amegakure did have a grudge in the past, but that's all in the past now that the war is over. Besides, I can sense that you don't have any killing intent, so you probably didn't come here to kill us."

Upon hearing this, Kyusuke immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The opponent is too fast!

If their opponents are here to kill them, even if Yahiko and Konan are fearless, he might not be able to defeat them in his current state.

"Are you so sure I won't actually kill him?"

Jingyan countered with a question.

"Since you didn't harm Kyusuke, we both had ways to avoid it."

Yahiko answered truthfully.

Jingyan is young, and he can still keep up with the speed.

Konan's origami skills are enough to evade attacks like those using swords.

Jingyan pondered, reflecting on the shortcomings.

"Kyohiko, your technique is fine, but currently you are limited by your own ability and age. If your opponent is faster than you and can see your trajectory, this tactic will have flaws."

The sound came from outside, interrupting his thoughts.

Xiao Nan's eyes widened, and then a look of wild joy appeared on her face.

"Teacher, is that you?"

"teacher!"

Yahiko and Konan were overjoyed.

Braving the rain, the two rushed out of the cave and saw Jiraiya quietly jumping down from a tree not far away under the rain curtain.

It was Jiraiya.

"Yahiko, Konan, you've both improved a lot. You're now at the level of a Jonin from a major ninja village. That's great! Where's Nagato? Why isn't he here? Or...?"

Jiraiya's tone gradually became hesitant and serious.

Nagato's talent and Rinnegan make him an easy target for others to covet...

"No, no, Nagato is fine. It's just that we have a lot of companions now. Some are like-minded friends like Kyusuke, and some are orphans who have lost their parents and are being raised and cared for by us."

Xiao Nan quickly explained.

Jiraiya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

fine……

That's good.

Jingyan sheathed his sword and stood in the cave.

"Teacher, let's come inside and talk. Although the rain isn't heavy, there's no need to chat in the rain."

"Alright."

Hearing that his disciples were all safe and sound and doing well in Amegakure, Jiraiya felt happy and his steps became lighter.

He was truly afraid that Yahiko and Minami would bring news he didn't want to hear.

……

Inside the cave, Yahiko recounted his actions and situation over the past two or three years.

"Yahiko, thank you for all these years!"

Jiraiya was deeply moved upon hearing this.

Yahiko was the one who planned and orchestrated Yahiko's work, while Konan and Nagato were more like executors.

As a high-ranking member of Konoha who had commanded battles, Jiraiya knew all too well the feeling of a group of people bearing the weight of responsibility on their shoulders.

"It's not too difficult, but I'm very confused about the future. I heard that this time, Teacher, you led the various countries to force the Land of Water to make concessions so that the Land of Waves could be spared from war and return to peace. I thought about it and mustered up my courage to come here to ask you for advice."

As Yahiko spoke, he stood up and apologized to Kyohiko.

He followed the Konoha ninjas, but he really didn't know where to look for Jiraiya.

"I was thinking that since you only started learning from the teacher this year, Kyusuke's abilities should be able to keep it from you. We could wait until the teacher appeared before giving him the message, so as not to put the teacher in a difficult position."

"He's hidden it very well, but I've had some special training in this area."

Jingyan waved his hand to indicate that it was alright.

As a ninja from Amegakure, Kyusuke had already gone back, and he spoke frankly.

It's not that Kyusuke is too bad; it's just that he happens to be quite good at this.

Neither Kurenai nor Aoba Yamashiro noticed the other's location. Kyohiko only realized someone was following him after hearing the strange noise of the other climbing the tree, and his probing confirmed it was true.

Yahiko and Konan exchanged a glance and sighed softly.

Kyusuke was already one of the best in every aspect, second only to the three of them, but he was constantly hampered by Kyohiko's speed.

The genin of Konoha are too strong!

I wonder how many people like Kyohiko are left in Konoha...
