Chapter 140 Nawaki Nono's Strength (Third and Fourth Updates)

The entrance to Konoha Village.

"Finally, I can go out on missions again!"

Rope Tree said excitedly.

"This mission will take place in the Land of Lightning, so remember not to act rashly."

Xia Mu reminded him.

After giving the energy-restoring potion to Kakuzu, he returned to Konoha Village.

Given Kakuzu's abilities and strength, it would be a waste of his talents to have him sell energy recovery potions.

Xia Mu doesn't need to worry about him getting into any trouble.

"Okay!"

Rope Tree said helplessly, "Don't be like my sister!"

"Thank goodness Tsunade-sensei didn't come."

Xia Mu smiled and said, "Otherwise, you won't be able to leave Konoha today."

"It's not that exaggerated!"

Rope Tree glanced around, raised his voice, and said, "I'm not afraid of her!"

"Nonou".

Natsuki changed the subject and said, "After the mission is over, please pass this message on to Tsunade-sensei."

"etc!"

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree's pupils dilated in shock as he exclaimed, "Why are you spinning around? There's no need. Let's get going and do the mission!"

After saying that, he pulled Xia Mu and ran outside.

Yakushi Nonou smiled slightly and followed them.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

They successfully entered the Land of Thunder.

The Land of Lightning is located in the northeastern part of the ninja world; it is a high-altitude, mountainous region.

The area is shrouded in mist and clouds, and thunder can often be heard, hence the name "Land of Thunder".

The Land of Lightning has many specialties, such as sake and beef.

In the original work, when Naruto Uzumaki got married, the Fourth Raikage sent him a lot of sake.

"It's getting late, let's rest for the night and set off again tomorrow."

Xia Mu stopped and said.

"I'll set up the tent."

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree volunteered.

Xia Mu nodded.

Once the tent was set up, he took out two lunch boxes and handed them to Nawaki and Yakushi Nonou.

"Natsuki."

Suddenly remembering something, Nawaki asked, "Do you think my current strength is enough to pass the Jonin Exams?"

"It feels a bit forced."

Xia Mu thought for a moment and then told the truth.

There is no doubt that Nawaki's strength has surpassed that of a Chunin.

But he's still a bit short of being a Jonin.

"After you've mastered the Ten Forms of Water Breathing and Armament Haki, then apply for the Jonin Exams."

Xia Mu suggested.

Rope Tree has mastered eight forms of Water Breathing.

He had only recently learned Armament Haki.

"Okay then."

Rope Tree nodded upon hearing this.

He trusted Xia Mu completely and knew that he wouldn't lie to him, so he didn't say anything more.

"My teacher said I'm ready to become a medical ninja."

Yakushi Nonou suddenly spoke up, "I've learned the Palm Healing Technique."

"So fast?"

Rope Tree asked with a look of surprise.

Xia Mu was also somewhat surprised, but upon closer reflection, it made sense.

After all, in the original work, Rin Nohara learned the Palm Healing Technique at the age of twelve.

Yakushi Nonou's talent in medical ninjutsu is no less than hers.

It's normal for them to learn the magic of the palm at the same age.

"I'm actually the last one to become a Jonin?"

After her initial surprise, Rope Tree was dejected.

He was at least two years older than Natsuki and Yakushi Nonou, yet he became a Jonin later than them.

"There's not much difference between being a year earlier or a year later."

Xia Mu smiled and said, "It won't hinder the realization of your dream."

Rope Tree paused for a moment, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat strange.

His dream is to become Hokage.

But Xia Mu's dream is also...

"you're right!"

Rope Tree didn't give up, and said with great enthusiasm, "Nobody knows what the future holds. Maybe I'll be even stronger than you by then!"

Yakushi Nonou glanced at him subconsciously.

She couldn't understand why he dared to say such a thing.

In her view, as long as Natsuki wanted to compete for Hokage, no one else had any hope.

After finishing their meal, the three chatted for a while before crawling into their sleeping bags and drifting off to sleep.

Nothing happened overnight, and it was a new day.

In his drowsy state, Xia Mu caught a faint fragrance.

He opened his eyes and saw Yakushi Nonou.

She appeared in front of him without him noticing and untied her sleeping bag.

Although her body was still inside her sleeping bag, she rested her head against his chest.

The faint fragrance came from the ends of her hair.

Xia Mu smiled as he looked at her profile, which was so close to his.

He reached out and pinched her nose.

Yakushi Nonou woke up quickly.

She met Xia Mu's gaze and said softly, "Good morning."

Xia Mu pinched her cheek but didn't expose her.

The two of them sat up and packed away their sleeping bags.

Xia Mu woke up Sheng Shu again, and after breakfast, they continued on their way.

Around noon, they arrived at their mission's destination: a medium-sized city.

"Xia Mu, you still haven't told us what our mission is this time."

Rope Tree turned to look at Natsuki.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Xia Mu entered the city.

He had already looked at the map given to him by the Dark Division, so he quickly found the arena run by Miyajo En.

"There are actually places like this?"

Rope Tree looked at the GG sign at the door and asked in surprise.

The GG card describes how the arena is run.

First, audiences buy tickets to watch the martial arts competition.

Secondly, skilled ninjas can sign up for combat tournaments and earn corresponding monetary rewards by accumulating a certain number of victories.

"Both the Land of Lightning and the Hidden Cloud Village have a martial spirit, so it's not surprising that such a place exists."

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then said, "This mission is very simple: participate in the duel."

"A duel?"

Nawaki's spirits lifted, and he said expectantly, "No problem, I can just experience the strength of the Land of Lightning ninjas for myself!"

"To avoid revealing your identity, do not use the Greatsword Samehada."

Xia Mu reminded him.

"Can."

Nawaki laughed and said, "Using the Greatsword Samehada would be too much of a humiliation for them, so I'll just use a regular ninja sword."

"Don't underestimate the arena; it's possible for a Jonin to appear there."

Xia Mu glanced at him and said.

That's what they say, but the probability of a Jonin appearing is very small.

Xia Mu entered the arena's main hall.

"Welcome, three guests."

A staff member saw them, came up to them, and asked.

"We want to sign up for the fighting competition."

Xia Mu said directly.

The staff member was slightly taken aback and subconsciously began to look them over.

To be honest, Xia Mu and the other two were all too young, and he found it hard to believe that they had the strength to participate in the fighting competition.

"You need to think this through. In the arena, life and death are irrelevant."

The staff member said in a deep voice, "Once something goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it."

97

"We're sure we want to register."

Xia Mu repeated.

"Alright then."

The staff member didn't try to persuade them any further, but took out three registration forms and said, "Please fill out these forms."

"I'm not participating, but the two of them will."

Natsuki handed the registration forms to Pharmacist Nono and Nawaki.

He glanced at it too.

The registration form consists of two parts.

The first part is to fill in your age, abilities, and strengths.

The second part is a waiver of liability, similar to a death waiver, stating that they are not responsible if someone dies in the arena.

"Chunin?"

After reviewing the application form, the staff member looked on with suspicion.

Nawaki is described as a Chunin, skilled in Water Release and swordsmanship.

Yakushi Nonou is a Chunin who excels in taijutsu.

But the staff didn't ask any more questions, since it was none of his business if something happened.

"Come with me."

After collecting the registration forms, the staff led them to the backstage area of ​​the arena.

Here, Natsuki saw all the ninjas participating in the battle.

He quickly identified Chino as the target.

In the original work, Chino says that although she looks like a child, she is actually much older than she appears.

However, she is indeed a teenage girl now, not yet an adult.

Their appearance caught the attention of Chino and the others, but they didn't pay much attention to them.

After all, there are new contestants every day.

Not long after, it was Rope Tree's turn.

Rope Tree entered the arena.

What followed was a lot of noise.

He looked around and couldn't help but gasp; there were an unusually large number of spectators.

"Kid, this isn't a place for you!"

Rope Tree's opponent was a burly man who, upon seeing him, immediately spoke arrogantly.

Xia Mu activated the electromagnetic wave induction.

He immediately became aware of the surrounding situation.

He quickly noticed a young man in the crowd.

Electromagnetic wave induction can roughly determine a person's strength or weakness.

The young man was the strongest among those present.

He was wearing a pair of peculiar square glasses, which most likely belonged to Miyajo En.

Xia Mu glanced at it and then looked away.

He wasn't in a hurry.

Because Oyajo En will come to you on his own.

Just then, gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.

Because Nawaki used Water Breathing - Third Form - Ryuu Dance to instantly defeat his opponent.

The two men were very different in age and size, making his victory all the more surprising.

The duel continued.

Yakushi Nonou makes her appearance.

She also defeated her opponent in the first round in an instant, winning with a single punch.

"Where did these two children come from? I've never seen them before."

Miya Shiro couldn't help but ask.

He was far more knowledgeable than Chino and the others, and he could tell at a glance that the ninjutsu and taijutsu used by Nawaki and Yakushi Nono were extraordinary.

"I'll go and find out what's going on right away."

The middle-aged man standing behind him immediately responded.

Not long after, he returned.

"They registered today."

The middle-aged man then mentioned the names of Nawaki and Yakushi Nonou.

But they used pseudonyms.

After all, as Xia Mu became famous, his teammates also gained considerable fame.

"Never heard of it, maybe it's a pseudonym."

Miyajo En said thoughtfully, "Judging from their age and strength, they are most likely from the Five Great Villages."

"Should we stop it?"

The middle-aged man asked upon hearing this.

"Let's take a look first."

Miyajo En shook his head and said.

He didn't want to offend the five major villages, nor could he afford to.

After leaving the Blood Pond Clan, he went into business, because he didn't want to have too much to do with ninjas.

Time passed slowly.

Fewer and fewer contestants remained, until finally only four were left.

Of these four people, besides Yakushi Nono and Nawaki, there are Kazeshin and Chino.

Kazeshin and Chino are the ace players of the arena.

They were always the ones left until the very end.

But this time, unusually, there were two more people.

The audience was very excited.

Only Miyajo En frowned.

He wasn't sure if Kazeshin and Chino could defeat them.

But now, there's no way to stop it.

If he tries to stop it, the audience will be dissatisfied, which will ruin the reputation of his arena and make it difficult for him to have such good business in the future.

"Rope Tree".

Xia Mu said in a low voice, "Be careful of Feng Xin's Platform Release. It's more powerful than ordinary Wind Release, but it has a weakness."

As for what weaknesses he had, he didn't say.

After all, revealing weaknesses would negate the effect of training the rope tree.

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree nodded seriously.

He walked to the center of the field and looked at Feng Xin.

Is he fleeing to Taiwan?

This was the first time he had ever heard of such a bloodline limit.

But he remained confident.

Furthermore, Xia Mu mentioned that Tai-Dun has weaknesses, and finding them would increase the chances of winning.

"Battle begins!"

The referee shouted loudly when he saw the two players enter the field.

Feng Xin formed hand seals without hesitation.

Taiwan Escape - Strong Wind and Fierce Break!

Centered on him, gusts of wind swirled and flew out.

shave!

Instead of retreating, Rope Tree advanced, reaching the heart of the wind before the gale could blow out.

He gripped a ninja sword and slashed out with force.

Breath of Water - Fourth Form - Tide of Strike!

A stream of water, carrying a blade of light, pierced through the gale and slashed toward the heart of the wind at incredible speed.

Feng Xin's gaze sharpened.

Rope Tree's strength far exceeded his expectations.

At the critical moment, he rolled to the ground and raised his hand.

The wind suddenly surged, swirling and crashing towards the rope tree like ocean waves.

Rope Tree suddenly felt a heavy weight, as if a mountain had crashed into him.

Water Breathing - Land Form - Twisting Vortex!

The rope tree still hasn't retreated.

He turned his body, and a massive amount of water-style chakra transformed into a vortex.

The strong wind hit it, and an explosion occurred immediately.

Countless streams of water splashed everywhere.

The audience screamed with excitement upon seeing this.

They rarely see such intense collisions.

Platform Release: Chakra Blade!

Feng Xin immediately pulled out a short knife from behind her back and threw it out.

The short sword was wrapped in wind-style chakra, making it incredibly fast.

The rope tree had barely touched the ground when it was already within reach.

At the crucial moment, he crossed his arms.

Iron block!

A piercing sound rang out.

To the astonishment of many viewers, Nawaki blocked the ninja sword with his arms.

"What kind of ninjutsu is this?"

Miya Shiro leaned forward instinctively and couldn't help but ask.

The middle-aged man behind him naturally couldn't answer his question.

Feng Xin felt increasingly uneasy.

He knew very well what Miyajo En was capable of; if he lost, he would inevitably suffer torture.

It was precisely because of Miyajo En's overly cruel methods that he and Chino were able to escape together in the original work.

Platform Escape - Great Fierce Break!

Feng Xin's expression darkened, and he unleashed his strongest platform-style ninjutsu.

In an instant, a storm suddenly descended, centered on him.

The terrifying typhoon swept through rapidly, cracking the ground and sending debris flying everywhere it passed.

Rope Tree immediately sensed that something was amiss.

All he could see was the wind; there was nowhere to hide.

But for him, there was still one place to hide.

Moonwalk!

Before the gale could engulf him, he leaped into the air.

"What?"

Feng Xin's face showed a look of astonishment.

"It's flying ninjutsu?"

Upon seeing this, Miyajo En immediately stood up.

His face showed both shock and dismay.

Flying ninjutsu is extremely rare in the five great villages.

The only ninja associated with flying ninjutsu during this period was Natsuki.

Could he be Xia Mu?

The age matches, and the swordsmanship and water-style techniques match, but the strength doesn't.

With Xia Mu's strength, dealing with Feng Xin shouldn't be this difficult.

Just then, Nawaki, who had flown into the air, discovered the weakness of the platform escape technique.

That's the eye of the storm, where it's completely calm and there's no wind.

shave!

Rope Tree went to the eye of the typhoon without hesitation.

He leaped up and took out a kunai to use as a ninja sword.

Water Breathing - Seventh Form - Shizuku Ripple Strike!

His lightning-fast thrust brought him to Feng Xin's side in an instant.

Before he could react, the water gushed out and sent him flying.

Rope Tree stepped forward, aiming his sword at him.

"I—I surrender."

Feng Xin sighed and couldn't help but admit her defeat.

On the stage, Miyajo En did not reprimand Kazeshin as he usually did.

At this moment, he was more concerned about the identities of Nawaki and Yakushi Nonou.

As he pondered, Yakushi Nonou and Chino appeared.

Natsuki also warned the pharmacist Nono to be careful of her Blood Dragon Eyes and illusions.

Water Release: Rain and Scattering!

As soon as the battle began, Chino immediately formed hand seals.

Huge water droplets appeared one after another, flying towards Yakushi Nonou like bullets.

Moonwalk!

Yakushi Nonou flew directly into the air.

"Another one who can fly as a ninja?"

Miyajo En was startled, and a vague guess began to form in his mind.

Flying ninjutsu is an extremely rare ninjutsu, so it's impossible for it to be so common.

The only possibility is that they are related to Xia Mu, perhaps they are Xia Mu's two teammates.

Senno was surprised and quickly formed hand seals again.

Yakushi Nonou descended from the sky and kicked her.

Just then, a wall of water appeared.

Yakushi Nonou kicked the water wall.

Strange power!

She exerted a sudden force, and the water wall shattered into pieces.

But Chino took this opportunity to distance herself.

shave!

Yakushi Nono leaned forward.

Painful feet!

She lifted her leg and stomped down.

boom!

A deep crater appeared in the ground, and countless pieces of rubble rained down on Chino.

A crimson hue flashed.

Chino's eyes immediately turned red.

The lightning-fast pebbles slowed down, and she narrowly avoided them.

Yakushi Nonou, seizing the opportunity, took a step forward, clenching her fist as if about to strike.

Blood Dragon Eye!

Left with no other choice, Chino resorted to illusion magic.

Invisible fluctuations spread.

Yakushi Nonou suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Is this the Blood Dragon Eye?"

Rope Tree's eyes widened.

He also heard the relevant content when Natsuki introduced it to the pharmacist Nono.

He never imagined that there was a Blood Dragon Eye that could rival the Sharingan.

Seeing that Yakushi Nonou was under a genjutsu, Chino immediately took out a kunai and rushed forward.

Without hesitation, she thrust out.

But the next second, Yakushi Nonou raised her left hand and grabbed her wrist.

At the same time, he clenched his right fist and struck Chino squarely in the chest.

Although Yakushi Nonou held back, her strength was still considerable.

Chino's body jolted, she bent over, squatted on the ground, and lost the ability to resist.

"Tsunade's monstrous strength?"

Miyajo En's heart sank.

He had already confirmed the identities of Xia Mu and the other two; they were the kind of people he couldn't afford to offend.

He doesn't know if they've come simply to participate in the arena or if they're after him.

After all, he had a grudge against the Uchiha clan as a member of the Blood Pond clan.

The Uchiha clan has now joined Konoha Village.
