Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Omoi was stunned by Shino's sudden move and jumped back.

And Yu Ming changed back to normal.

Several shadow clones also turned into wisps of smoke.

After Yu Ming had fully recovered, Samui looked at the four of them and frowned, "You guys~".

Karui and Omoi were also stunned: "You guys weren't caught?"

The Chunin from Kirigakure, with Samui's knife to their necks, were stunned. "How is this possible? You weren't captured before."

Ino laughed and said, "You're the one who got captured. You underestimate us Konoha ninjas."

Samui's gaze remained fixed on Yu Ming. "Are you a Jonin from Konoha?"

Samui was somewhat skeptical because Yu Ming looked very young, although he appeared to be around sixteen years old.

However, Samui did not have any information on Yu Ming. Logically speaking, Kumogakure should have had information on such a young Jonin as Yu Ming.

Yu Ming smiled and said, "Yu Ming, a special Jonin of Konoha, I have yet to ask for your guidance."

Samyi heard the name and, as expected, she had never heard of it before.

Samui, though somewhat puzzled, still said, "Samui, a Jonin from Kumogakure."

"My transit point is 3717Aomo291191."

"I am Karui."

When Samui said his name, Karui and Omoi also said their names.

Currently, Kumogakure and Konoha are not enemies, so there is actually no enmity between them.

Yu Ming said, "We want to know where this group's hideout is."

Sam said, "But that's also my task."

Yu Ming looked at Samui and said, "We can actually do it together."

Karui frowned and said, "Why should we? The person is in our hands."

Yu Ming wasn't angry, but Ino said angrily, "But we're the ones who found this person. If it weren't for you, we would already know where their hideout is. And you guys, from the beginning, weren't even sure that the izakaya owner was the person who made the handover to this group, were you?"

Hearing Ino's words, Karui waited for her to say, "But they're in our hands now. If you're so capable, why don't you take them back?"

Karui and Omoi are currently at the Chunin level, or even close to the Jonin level.

The two were considered genius ninjas, even though they were only about a year older than Ino and the others.

However, their strength is much greater.

Ino, in particular, is the weakest among them.

Hinata and Shino are at least not too much worse than Karui and Omoi.

As for Yu Ming, there's no need to say anything more.

Yu Ming and Samui remained silent, watching Ino and Karui exchange insults.

A moment later, Yu Ming patted Ino on the shoulder because Karui had gotten impatient with what he was saying.

Clearly, when it comes to verbal sparring, she's not as good as Ino.

Seeing Yu Ming intervene, Samui calmly said, "Alright, Karui, stop talking."

The most painful thing for a Chunin from Kirigakure was having Samui's sword held to their neck.

He could lose his life if he wasn't careful. Even though he had become a rogue ninja, he still valued his life.

Yu Ming looked at Samui and said, "We have a way to get this guy to tell us where their hideout is."

Samui pondered for a moment, then looked at Yuming and asked a question completely unrelated to the mission: "How old are you?"

Yu Ming was stunned for a moment, then he understood. Samui was trying to find out how old Yu Ming was so as to determine his talent and status in Konoha.

The younger Yu Ming is, the more important his position and importance are to Konoha.

The more natural a person's words carry, the more weight they become.

Before Yu Ming could speak, Ino said, "Yu Ming is only thirteen years old. Hmph, are you scared?"

　0.7 Yu Ming looked at Ino with some helplessness.

Karui, who had been arguing with Ino, also stopped talking and looked at Yu Ming with disbelief.

"Only thirteen years old and already a Special Jonin? Is Konoha's selection standard too lenient, or are you just too strong?"

Since Yu Ming hadn't made a move yet, Karui was somewhat skeptical that Yu Ming was already a Special Jonin at only thirteen years old.

Samui knew that Yu Ming was very strong.

Because neither Karui nor Omoi noticed it just now.

Yu Ming's four shadow clones used a transformation technique.

Four shadow clones—that's something a Chunin can't do.

It's something that most Chunin can't do, except for Jinchuriki like Naruto.

Yu Ming is clearly not that kind of person, which means that Yu Ming's strength must be at the level of a Jonin.

This is true at least in terms of chakra and mental strength.

Chapter 162

Samui looked at Yu Ming calmly and said, "Although your name is not in the records of Kumogakure, I think that given your age, you must have recently been promoted to Jonin."

Ino and Hinata were startled, wondering why Samui knew.

Shino, on the other hand, stood calmly to the side, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

Yu Ming looked at Samui calmly and said, "It's rare to see such a calm Jonin from Kumogakure."

The Hidden Cloud Village is indeed steeped in martial spirit, and it's rare to find such a calm ninja among a group of muscular men.

Upon hearing Yu Ming's words, Karui and Omoi were furious. Wasn't this an insult to their Cloud Village?

"Kid, are you looking for death?"

Karui immediately started cursing.

Yu Ming completely ignored her, and instead looked at Samui, smiling as he said, "I have a way to find out the location of their leader. How about we complete this mission together?"

Before Samui could answer, Karui said, "Dream on, this person is ours~".

"Boom!"

Before Karui could speak, Yu Ming exuded an extremely strong aura, causing the surrounding air to vibrate violently.

The ground beneath Yu Ming's feet instantly shattered, with cracks spreading for over ten meters.

The wood throughout the room developed cracks.

9. Karui's voice suddenly stopped.

Looking at Yu Ming, his face was filled with fear.

"Wow, what a terrifying chakra burst! This guy, this guy seems really strong."

Omoi, gripping his katana, stood in front of Samui and Karui, though he was drenched in sweat.

"Nonsense, do you even need to tell me that?"

After Yu Ming unleashed his chakra, even Samui became wary, and sweat appeared on her forehead.

She had thought Yu Ming must have some strength, but she never expected him to be this terrifying. She had only ever seen this kind of chakra burst before, in the Fourth Raikage.

Moreover, it's a rare sight, and the Fourth Raikage's appearance was due to the explosion of Lightning Release chakra.

Yu Ming's destruction was purely caused by the eruption of chakra.

"This guy is even stronger than I imagined. He's so young, yet his strength is unfathomable. He's terrifying."

Samui also made a defensive move.

Meanwhile, the rogue ninja from Kirigakure was already kneeling on the ground. He had knelt down the moment Yu Ming unleashed his chakra; this chakra was truly terrifying, something he had never seen before.

The strongest ninja he had ever seen was their leader, but their leader's chakra was on a completely different level from the chakra that Yu Ming had just unleashed.

Meanwhile, Ino, Hinata, and Shino were also stunned by the chakra that Yu Ming unleashed.

Hinata thought to herself, "So Yu Ming-kun's strength has grown this much."

Ino looked at Yu Ming with shining eyes, "I didn't expect Yu Ming to be so powerful. He's so cool. The way he unleashed his chakra just now was like a god."

The moment Shino unleashed his chakra, he felt all his insects shrink back.

"As expected, Yu Ming became a Jonin entirely because of his strength. It's terrifying. His strength is even much greater than that of Kurenai Yuhi and my father."

Yu Ming looked at Samui calmly and said, "Now, can we have a proper talk?"

In Yu Ming's eyes, Samui and he were equals, while the others were subordinates of both sides.

After Yu Ming finished speaking, Samui did not answer immediately. She looked at Yu Ming calmly, and after a long time, she said, "It's possible, but it's not impossible to cooperate."

After Samui agreed, Yu Ming walked over to her. Although Samui was more than ten years older than Yu Ming, she was shorter than him, but not by much. She was 1.68 meters tall, which was considered quite tall for a girl, much taller than Tsunade's 1.63 meters.

"Let's get information about Akita from this guy first."

Samui nodded, tacitly agreeing with Yu Ming's words.

Karui and Omoi dared not be disrespectful to Yu Ming at this point.

This guy could probably kill the two of them easily, and they even felt that the aura that Yu Ming had just unleashed was something that even their master couldn't achieve.

Their master was Killer Bee.

Although he was strong enough to easily defeat these people, Yu Ming preferred to do things according to the rules. Strictly speaking, Samui was a level above Yu Ming.

Of course, the two are not from the same village, so there is no need to worry about that.

After getting Samui's consent, Yu Ming looked at Ino and smiled, "Ino, now it's up to you."

Seeing Yu Ming smile at her, Ino blushed slightly with embarrassment.

However, this is what their mountain tribe originally did.
