Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Kai said angrily, "How many people have these bastards killed? They're beasts!"

Although he had experienced the Third Shinobi World War, he had never seen such a terrifying scene.

The entire city was stained with blood, and the stench of blood in the air was unbearable. One could feel the brutal massacre that the city's residents had endured before they died.

Kakashi was also furious, but he knew very well that the most important thing now was to eliminate Kakashi and his crew and not let them leave.

Otherwise, it won't just be the people of this city who are harmed by them.

If we were to enter the Land of Fire, it would be even more terrifying.

“Kai, we must eliminate them all now, otherwise this situation will repeat itself elsewhere.”

Kai nodded, though he was angry, he was still able to remain rational.

The five continued walking towards the tower and came to a small lake where the two sides met.

A is a fifty-year-old man, but due to a secret technique, he now looks only about thirty years old.

Upon seeing the newcomer, A smiled and said, "I didn't expect Konoha to send you. Hatake Kakashi, Konoha's Copy Ninja."

"And that woman, you got away last time, but I didn't expect you to dare to come back this time. You really aren't afraid of death."

As for the others, A had absolutely no recollection of them.

At this time, among Kakashi's generation in Konoha, Kakashi was the most famous, and almost everyone in the ninja world knew him.

He has a whole bunch of titles, such as Copy Ninja, Konoha Technician, Sharingan Kakashi, and so on.

Kai and Yamato have absolutely no name recognition.

It's normal that Yamato is unknown because he's in the dark side.

Guy is purely a taijutsu ninja with few achievements. In his youth, he was even inferior to Kakashi in taijutsu.

So it's normal that A didn't recognize him at this point; he was far less famous in the ninja world than Kakashi.

Uzuki Yugao and Yumei are even less well-known.

However, after Kakashi finished speaking, A turned his gaze to Yu Ming. He was stunned for a moment. "Genin? Heh, has Konoha really gone mad? They actually sent a genin to carry out this mission. Do they want you to die?"

A found it ridiculous that Konoha would send a genin to carry out this mission. He would have understood if they had sent a chunin, since Konoha is one of the five great ninja villages.

Yu Ming did not respond to Jia's mockery, but simply maintained a smile.

Kakashi looked at the seven people and frowned. "Today we are here on orders to eliminate you. Of course, you can choose to surrender."

Kakashi also harbored great anger towards these people.

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, A laughed arrogantly, "Hahaha, Kakashi, are you crazy? You actually want us to surrender? If we were really afraid of you, we wouldn't have slaughtered all the residents of this city."

"You participated in the Ninja World War, so you should have seen this kind of scene before. Why do you look so angry?"

"Kakashi, your strength is quite impressive. I think your blood should provide me with a lot of chakra. The blood of a Jonin contains far more chakra than the blood of a thousand ordinary people."

Thinking about this, Jia felt that the four people standing in front of him, except for Yu Ming, were all very tempting.

Four Jonin, while unable to help him break through to Kage level, could certainly elevate his strength to a very high level.

"Konoha really sent me a great gift."

Standing behind Jia, Yi and Bing were extremely envious. Those were four Jonin. If they could absorb the blood of four Jonin, they could become stronger.

However, after glancing at Jia, the two abandoned the idea, because they didn't dare to snatch the person from Jia's face.

Although A is a Jonin just like them, he is much stronger than them.

Even without his power unleashed, A already possessed the strength of an elite Jonin, while they were only at the level of ordinary Jonin.

Kakashi frowned. "These people are indeed very strange. Be careful, all of you. Leave the three Jonin to me. Guy and Yamato, Yumei and Yugao, you two go and deal with the four Chunin. With your strength, you should be able to handle them. Yumei, I'm afraid I'll have some trouble with Hope's strength. You look after her."

Yu Ming nodded. "Don't worry, Kakashi-sensei, I will."

Yu Ming suddenly felt agitated for some reason.

"I don't know if I'll be able to use my strongest power to deal with these people this time."

Although Uzuki Yugao really wanted to say that she didn't need protection, based on her previous experience, the strength of those Chunin was already enough to suppress her.

These people are far more skilled in physical combat than she is.

If you're not careful, you might fail and get killed.

Therefore, we cannot be careless in the slightest.

Standing beside Uzuki Yugao, Yu Ming drew the short sword from his waist.

Looking at the four Chunin from the east, west, south, and north, Yu Ming calmly said, "Sister Xi Yan, go ahead and kill them. Don't worry, I'm here for you. I won't let them hurt you."

Yu Ming's words were actually meant to encourage Uzuki Yugao to unleash her full potential without holding back.

Yugao Uzuki was deeply moved and nodded, saying, "Yes, Yuming, I will definitely make them all die."

Seeing that the opposing team was preparing to attack, Yu Ming instructed, "Kakashi-sensei, be careful. Their speed and reaction speed are very strong. You used to deal with Guy-sensei opening the Eight Gates. You should use the same mindset to deal with them."

Kakashi nodded. "I understand. Yugao already told us about their characteristics before."

Yu Ming nodded. "That's good."

However, just as he was about to rush into battle, he suddenly asked a question: "Kakashi-sensei, if I use a special bloodline limit, can you keep it a secret for me?"

Kakashi, Guy, and Yamato, who were preparing to attack, paused for a moment, looking at Yu Ming with a smile, as if they had thought of something.

"You succeeded?"

Because they had previously given Yu Ming a method for fusing bloodline limits, they were not surprised. What surprised them was that Yu Ming actually succeeded.

Yu Ming smiled slightly and said, "You'll see how it goes in a bit."

"But it depends on whether they will allow me to use my bloodline limit."

Uzuki Yugao nodded and said very seriously, "Yu Ming, no matter what bloodline limit you fuse, I will keep it a secret for you."

Kakashi and Guy both nodded and said, "That's right, we will definitely keep it a secret for you and won't tell anyone."

Yamato was actually a bit conflicted. He was now the captain of the Dark Army, directly under the third generation.

But looking at Yu Ming's calm demeanor, he finally made up his mind: "Don't worry, I won't see anything about your bloodline limit today."

Yu Ming smiled slightly and said, "Now let's see if they can force me to use it."

Actually, being exposed doesn't really matter; it's just that Yu Ming doesn't want to become a rogue ninja.

Chapter 55

Kakashi, along with Yamato and Guy, charged towards the three people, A, B, and C.

The battles before the Jonin were not particularly intense at the beginning.

However, this time, their battle was particularly intense from the start because all three of them, A, B, and C, primarily used taijutsu (physical techniques) and secondarily ninjutsu.

The battle between the three was extremely fierce and destructive; the surrounding houses were smashed to pieces by the six people within minutes.

"Boom!"

Meanwhile, the four people from the east, west, south, and north also rushed towards Yu Ming and Uzuki Yugao.

"I never expected our opponent to be a mere genin. How laughable. Since you want to die, we'll grant your wish."

The two men, Dong and west, rushed towards Yu Ming.

The talismans on their bodies began to glow.

This raised their strength to the level of elite Chunin, or even special Jonin.

Uzuki Yugao drew her katana, drew a circle around it, and then charged towards the two of them.

Yu Ming looked at Nan and Bei and smiled slightly, "It seems that my opponents are the two of you."

Nan and Bei had been silent since the beginning, but Yu Ming could tell that they were very strong and seemed to be a team.

A red light flashed in their pupils.

The runes on his body lit up.

The chakra within his body rapidly expanded.

"Oh, your chakra has surged. You now possess the chakra of a Jonin. You're controlling it quite well. You haven't had your consciousness swallowed up by this talisman."

Nan and Bei frowned upon hearing Yu Ming's words, wondering how Yu Ming knew that this talisman would devour their consciousness.

The two men drew two samurai swords.

Yu Ming smiled and said, "It really is a combination."

Just as Yu Ming finished speaking, Nan and Bei suddenly disappeared.

"Ding~".

"Pfft~".

Yu Ming blocked Nan's knife, but not Bei's. Bei stabbed him straight in the heart with great speed.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.

This situation startled Uzuki Yugao, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the two.

"Yu Ming~".

But the next moment, Yu Ming's body suddenly turned into a wisp of white smoke.

"Sizzle~"

A bolt of lightning flashed, and before Bei could react, Yu Ming appeared behind him, piercing through Bei's heart.

Blood splattered everywhere.

Bei's face twitched, completely unable to believe that he had failed. Even more terrifying was that Yu Ming had appeared behind him before he could react.

In the moment before his death, he looked at Nan and said, "Be careful, this guy is weird."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Yu Ming drew his short sword.

Bright red blood flowed down the short knife.

Bei collapsed to her knees at Yu Ming's feet, utterly exhausted.

Yu Ming raised his head, looked at the stunned Nan, and smiled slightly, "Next, it's your turn. Don't underestimate the opponent just because he's a ninja."
