Naruto: Fusion of Multiverse Character Templates

The holidays for the Medical Ninja Training Class and the Ninja Academy are not synchronized.

After lunch, Pharmacist Nonou went to class.

Natsuki returned to the Konoha Orphanage and, after confirming with Director Mayu that no Root ninjas had appeared, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Given Danzo Shimura's personality, after learning that he had defeated Minato Namikaze, he would definitely approach him and try to recruit him into Root.

This unusual turn of events can only be explained by one thing: Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped him.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. The current Hiruzen Sarutobi is not the Third Hokage who excessively indulged Danzo Shimura in the original work.

Of course, Danzo Shimura wouldn't give up so easily.

There's not much Xia Mu can do except improve his strength as quickly as possible.

He quickly finalized his training plan for the holiday.

Morning spent doing coding problems, afternoon spent climbing trees.

The next day arrived.

After Natsuki escorted the pharmacist Nono to Konoha Hospital, he went to the nearby training ground.

To his surprise, there was not only Tsunade and Nawaki on the training field, but also a girl.

She looked to be about the same age as Xia Mu, with a slightly round face and bright red hair.

"Natsuki, let me introduce you. This is Kushina Uzumaki."

Tsunade said proactively, "She will be transferring to your class next semester."

Xia Mu thought to himself, "As expected."

He recognized her red hair and immediately knew she was Kushina Uzumaki.

"Hello, I am Kushina Uzumaki."

Kushina Uzumaki said somewhat reservedly.

She's not the fiery, hot-tempered woman she used to be.

In fact, she earned the nickname "Bloody Red Pepper" purely because of her angry retaliation after being bullied by her classmates.

"I'm Xia Mu, nice to meet you."

Xia Mu nodded and said.

"I have prepared wooden ninja tools for you."

Tsunade crouched down, opened a storage summoning scroll, and took out a bunch of ninja tools.

Although she can provide timely treatment for Natsuki and Nawaki, we should try our best to avoid injury if possible.

Xia Mu glanced at it subconsciously.

He was standing close by, and since Tsunade wasn't wearing her ninja vest today, he could see a glimpse of her snow-white figure.

Although it hasn't reached the level of the original work yet, it's already showing signs of progress.

"Natsuki, nice to meet you."

Rope Tree, with a broad smile, formed the seal of opposition and spoke.

"Nawaki-senpai, please have mercy."

Natsuki took a wooden ninja sword from Tsunade's hand.

In the original work, Nawaki's role can be summarized in one sentence: he was killed by an explosive tag at the age of twelve.

How much talent he has, what ninjutsu he knows—all of this is unknown.

But one thing Natsuki is certain of is that he definitely has a lot of chakra.

Both the Senju and Uzumaki clans are known for their large amounts of chakra.

Kushina Uzumaki looked at them, her little face filled with curiosity.

She was new to the place and didn't know Xia Mu well, but she knew a little about Sheng Shu and knew that he was a genius among geniuses.

"Watch out!"

Rope Tree gave a reminder and instantly appeared in front of Natsuki.

He threw a punch that tore through the air.

The words "Instantaneous Movement Technique" flashed through Xia Mu's mind.

He had no time to dodge, so he could only raise his ninja sword and use the blade to block Nawaki's fist.

With a bang.

A tremendous force came.

Xia Mu felt a numbness in his right hand, which was gripping the ninja sword.

He glanced at it and noticed that the ninja sword had developed a crack.

Before Xia Mu could think, his right leg struck Rope Tree like lightning.

Seeing this, Rope Tree also raised his right leg.

Their legs collided, and both of them jolted simultaneously.

Rope Tree involuntarily took a step back, a look of surprise on his face.

He learned taijutsu from Tsunade since childhood and believed that no one of his peers could surpass him in taijutsu.

But Xia Mu's golden right foot caused him a slight loss.

However, that's all there is to it.

Rope Tree lunged forward again, his right fist slamming out with terrifying force.

Enhancement Magic!

A surge of chakra rushed towards Xia Mu's legs.

His speed suddenly increased, and in an instant he widened the distance between himself and Rope Tree.

One-Sword Style: Thirty-Six Troubles of the Phoenix!

Xia Mu's gaze sharpened, and the ninja sword became a blur in his hand.

Rope Tree immediately sensed danger.

He immediately stopped and formed a hand seal.

A wall of water rose up in front of him.

The next second, a visible blue sword wave landed on the water wall.

boom!

A loud noise was produced.

The water wall suddenly broke open with a large hole.

"What kind of swordsmanship is this?"

Rope Tree felt a lingering fear.

Fortunately, he used Water Release: Water Formation Wall in time; otherwise, that sword strike would have left a bloody hole in his body.

Tsunade, who was watching the battle, also showed a look of surprise.

The power displayed by the One-Sword Style: Thirty-Six Troubles Phoenix is ​​no less than that of a regular B-rank ninjutsu.

"Wow...that's amazing!"

Kushina Uzumaki blurted out.

She had seen many geniuses in the Uzumaki clan, but none of them could compare to Xia Mu and Nawaki.

"I call it One-Sword Style Swordsmanship."

Xia Mu took a breath and replied.

He doesn't have Zoro's terrifying physical abilities, so he can only channel his chakra into the Ittō-ryū: Thirty-Six Pleasures Phoenix.

This single sword strike consumed a third of his chakra.

There was no way around it; he was too young, didn't have any special bloodline, and his chakra was extremely limited.

"No wonder Minato lost to you."

Rope Tree exclaimed in amazement.

"With my chakra, I can also use a sword technique."

Natsuki gripped his ninja sword tightly and held it upright in front of him.

Seeing this, Rope Tree's expression turned serious.

He immediately formed hand seals and used the strongest water jutsu he currently possessed.

Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!

A huge water dragon roared and flew out.

A normal Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique requires forty-four hand seals, but Nawaki's Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique only requires four.

Because he learned the Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique, which was improved by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

Just then, the sound of wind breaking rang out.

Ittō-ryū (One-Sword Style), Iaijutsu (Quick Attack), and Shishi-sō (Lion's Lament)!

Xia Mu transformed into a beam of sword light, cleaving the water dragon in the air.

Water splashed everywhere.

Rope Tree's eyes widened.

Although the light had weakened considerably, it had not disappeared and was heading straight for him.

At the critical moment, he raised his arms and crossed them in front of him to block his way.

The light suddenly stopped, revealing Xia Mu's figure.

Rope Tree felt a sharp pain in both arms.

But he ultimately managed to block Xia Mu's sword.

"I surrender."

Xia Mu said decisively.

One reason is that he doesn't have much chakra left.

Secondly, it's because he has already used his two strongest sword techniques.

If he continues to fight, he's bound to lose.

It would be better to take advantage of the current situation, concede defeat, and save face.

"you……"

Rope Tree opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Although he won, it wasn't an easy victory.

Moreover, Xia Mu is two years younger than him.

If they were the same age, Natsuki would likely have lost if he had more chakra and swordsmanship.

"Truly astonishing swordsmanship talent."

Tsunade couldn't help but praise.

At the same time, an idea popped into her mind: Natsuki would be a good teammate for Rope Tree.

It seems I need to find some time to talk to Orochimaru and ask him to be Natsuki and Nawaki's mentor.

If we add Yakushi Nono, we can form a perfect ninja team.
