Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

"A medical intern ninja? So you're still a student at the ninja academy?"

Minato immediately noticed the loophole in Aoba's words and also noticed that he was not wearing a ninja headband.

"Um...yes, I am a student at the Ninja Academy, but I am actually an intern ninja at Konoha Hospital."

After saying that, he took out his internship certificate from Konoha Hospital. Seeing the two still looking at him with suspicion, Aoba used a medical ninjutsu.

Seeing the green light emanating from Aoba's palm, Jiraiya couldn't help but marvel.

"So she really is a medical ninja."

He even knows medical ninjutsu, so graduating from medical ninjutsu would definitely mean going to Konoha Hospital. Therefore, it's not wrong for Aoba to say that he is a medical ninja.

"These kids are really amazing these days, mastering medical ninjutsu at such a young age."

Jiraiya lamented that when he was Aoba's age, he hadn't even mastered the art of throwing.

"That's right, we were taught by Lady Tsunade."

"Oh? Tsunade taught you that?"

Upon hearing Tsunade's name, Jiraiya immediately became interested.

"Yes, it was Lady Tsunade who taught us in the medical experimental class at the Ninja Academy. Besides medical ninjutsu, Tsunade also taught me another very powerful ninjutsu!"

As he spoke, Aoba raised his right hand as if presenting a treasure, and his chakra gathered precisely.

"ha!"

With a low shout, a small fist landed on the ground, seemingly lightly.

boom!!!

The ground first cracked open like a spider web, then crumbled into countless fragments of rock, accompanied by a deafening roar, and dust rose into the sky like a giant wave.

However, before the ground cracked open, Minato and Jiraiya had already jumped out of the attack range.

After landing, both of them stopped smiling.

A hint of surprise flashed in Minato's eyes.

Jiraiya's playful smile vanished completely, replaced by a serious expression, and his hand unconsciously reached for his ribs.

This is Tsunade's superhuman strength.

No one understands Tsunade's monstrous strength better than him.

It's amazing that that arrogant woman would pass on her skills to a little brat.

This kid named Yamashiro Aoba is no ordinary person.

Not only did he learn medical ninjutsu, but he also mastered Tsunade's superhuman strength; he was truly a genius.

"Hey, hey, hey, that woman actually taught such a dangerous technique to a brat, it's outrageous!"

Jiraiya dusted himself off and pointed an accusation at someone.

"Thank you for your suggestion, Jiraiya-sama. I will write it down and pass it on to Tsunade-sensei."

After saying that, Aoba actually took out a notebook to write it down.

"Wait, wait."

Jiraiya was shocked and quickly pressed down on Aoba's notebook. "Ahem, well... Tsunade's judgment is still pretty good. She can still take good care of outstanding juniors."

"Oh, is that so?"

Aoba closed the notebook and looked at Jiraiya with a sincere expression.

"Then, Lord Jiraiya, what kind of care do you have for me, your outstanding junior?"

Jiraiya: "..."

Aoba climbed up the pole, leaving Jiraiya speechless.

Why aren't all kids cute these days?

Seeing his teacher stumped by a child's question, Minato smiled and stepped forward to smooth things over.

"That's impressive taijutsu, Aoba-kun. However, you shouldn't use it carelessly without preparation in the future; it's very dangerous."

His words were filled with genuine concern, and he did not mention Aoba's peeping again.

Since he learned Tsunade's superhuman strength, he can no longer be considered an outsider.

Similarly, the two of them no longer treated Aoba as a child. Since he had learned the ninjutsu of super strength, they would not treat him as an ordinary kid.

Since Aoba wants to see it, let him see it.

Jiraiya waved his hand, tacitly acknowledging Aoba's presence, only instructing him: "Just stay there and observe, don't wander off, and don't tell anyone about what's happening here."

"clear."

Aoba nodded, tactfully stepped aside, and found a rock that wouldn't get in the way to sit down.

The development of the water gate was actually in its final stages.

The chakra ball in his palm had become stable and no longer as violent and chaotic as it was at the beginning.

It was a rapidly spinning blue sphere, brimming with astonishing energy, emitting a buzzing sound.

The problem is that Watergate doesn't seem to be satisfied with that.

His idea seemed to be to launch this technique like a Tailed Beast Ball.

He took a deep breath and shoved the blue chakra ball in his hand forward!

However, the chakra ball, freed from the hand's restraint, instantly lost its stability. Its originally perfect spherical shape suddenly twisted and expanded, transforming into a chaotic chakra storm that swept in all directions! Boom!

The raging chakra, now unrestrained, exploded in mid-air, the resulting shockwave carrying debris that swept outwards like a shotgun blast.

"Ninja Art: Lion's Mane Technique!"

Jiraiya reacted quickly; his long white hair instantly grew out of shape, like living steel needles, weaving into a thick white barrier that blocked all the flying debris.

Aoba sat in the back, watching the long, flowing white hair that seemed to move freely, and the flash of inspiration from before returned to his mind.

"I see."

"So that's how it is..."

As the dust settled, Jiraiya withdrew his ninjutsu, leaving another large, irregular crater in the center of the arena.

"Looks like it's still not working."

Minato sat on the ground, looking somewhat disheveled, staring blankly at the clouds in the sky.

"Take a break, Minato."

Jiraiya shook his hair to restore it to its original state, then conjured two double popsicle sticks from somewhere. "Here, kid, you can have one too."

Jiraiya walked up to Aoba, casually broke off a piece, and handed him half.

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sama."

Aoba accepted it with both hands; the cool touch invigorated him on the hot afternoon.

The sweetness melts on the tip of the tongue, with a hint of milky aroma.

The three sat under the shade of a tree, popsicles dangling from their mouths, enjoying the rare coolness.

Aoba remembered that he also liked to eat this in the summer of his previous life. Back then, his biggest worry was whether or not to work overtime. Unlike now, he had to figure out how to survive the Ninja World War.

"Minato-senpai."

Aoba suddenly spoke, breaking the brief silence, "Are you planning to launch this chakra ball like a Tailed Beast Ball?"

Minato and Jiraiya were both taken aback and turned to look at Aoba, who was licking an ice pop.

"You know about the Tailed Beasts?" Minato asked in surprise.

Even Jiraiya's expression turned serious. Tailed beasts were not information that ordinary ninja academy students could access.

"Yes, I saw some records in the archives of Konoha Hospital."

Aoba answered naturally, "It's very old information. It says that before they were used as tools of war by ninjas, they were called 'demonic beasts,' evil beasts that brought disaster. Later, the ninjas called them 'tailed beasts,' and it describes how they used a high-density chakra attack..."

Aoba wasn't lying; the archive room containing the expired files did indeed have them, and he could even point out where the files describing the Tailed Beasts were kept.
