Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Yu Ming's chakra reserves are now roughly equivalent to Naruto's plus half of the Nine-Tails.

Although he is still far inferior to Hashirama Senju.

However, when using the Wood Release: Wood Human Technique, one can already unleash the power of the First Hokage.

However, even at the level of True Thousand Hands, Yu Minglong 89 still cannot use it at 96.

At the same time, Yu Ming also learned all the ninjutsu he learned from the Book of Sealing, including the Impure World Reincarnation.

However, the Impure World Reincarnation technique he learned was only the version recorded in the Book of Seals, not the perfected version.

In fact, the Impure World Reincarnation technique is neither perfect nor imperfect.

The Second Hokage originally developed this technique to complement his use of the Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags, and his initial idea was completely different from Orochimaru's.

Therefore, Yu Ming's purpose in learning the Impure World Reincarnation was also to use the Mutual Multiplication Explosion Talisman.

After more than three months of learning all the ninjutsu, Yu Ming felt that his current strength should have surpassed that of the Third Hokage at his peak.

Of course, Yu Ming wasn't sure either, but he felt that it should have surpassed it.

After all, he didn't know just how powerful the Third Hokage was at his peak.

He had heard many rumors that the Third Hokage was more powerful than the First and Second Hokage. Yu Ming couldn't really judge how the Second and Third Hokage were at their peak.

However, he felt that with his current strength, he should be able to defeat the Third Hokage at his peak.

Returning from the back mountain, Yu Ming suddenly found himself becoming increasingly calm.

Logically speaking, after a surge in strength, one's mindset should change drastically, but he found that his mindset remained very stable.

Don't know why.

By the time I returned home from the back of the mountain, it was already dark.

Walking down the street, the bustling atmosphere lifted Yu Ming's spirits.

However, just as Yu Ming was walking, he suddenly saw Kakashi leading Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, and his own shadow clones toward them.

The key point is that at this moment, they happened to see Yu Ming.

Kakashi knew that Yu Ming had been using shadow clones to carry out missions.

However, Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura were unaware of this.

This is quite awkward.

Yu Ming didn't actively activate his perception ability at all.

So it was quite an awkward encounter.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Yu Ming shook his head helplessly.

The shadow clone walking beside Kakashi also disappeared helplessly.

Sasuke and Sakura immediately guessed what was going on.

Sasuke clenched his fist, looking at Yu Ming with considerable displeasure. "Has this guy been using shadow clones to carry out missions all this time?"

Kakashi sighed and said helplessly, "Yu Ming, you..."

Kakashi hadn't expected Yu Ming to appear here; it was incredibly awkward.

Naruto took a while to realize what was happening, then pointed at Yu Ming and shouted, "Ah, you, you, Yu Ming, you actually used Shadow Clone Jutsu to slack off!"

"Why didn't I think of that?"

After realizing what was happening, Naruto thought to himself.

Naruto naturally wanted to slack off, but after thinking about it, he realized that while he wanted to slack off, he also wanted to complete missions. How could he level up if he didn't complete missions?

How can you become Hokage without leveling up?

Yu Ming walked over and smiled, saying, "Kakashi-sensei."

Kakashi said helplessly, "Fine, since you're here, let's go."

Yu Ming nodded. After the shadow clone disappeared, Yu Ming learned that Kakashi had treated them to Ichiraku Ramen after completing his mission...

Sasuke kept staring at Yu Ming, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

He had always wanted to challenge Yu Ming and test his true strength.

During this period, their tasks consisted of picking up trash, weeding, or catching cats and dogs.

There were no combat missions at all.

I have never seen Yu Ming make a move.

Therefore, it is impossible to know his true strength.

Sitting in Ichiraku Ramen, Yu Ming remained calm, but Sasuke, Sakura, and Sasuke kept staring at him.

After taking a few bites, Yu Ming looked up and smiled, "What, are you planning to wait for the noodles?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Naruto pouted and said, "I really didn't expect that Yu Ming is such a lazy person."

Sakura nodded in agreement.

Although Sasuke did not agree, his eyes remained fixed on Yu Ming.

Kakashi finished his ramen as quickly as possible, but he didn't interfere at all.

Despite Naruto's words, Yu Ming felt no remorse and calmly replied, "It's the same whether the shadow clones go or I go in person. After all, whatever the shadow clones do, the experience will come back to me."

Naruto thought about it and realized it made sense; he himself knew the Shadow Clone Technique and was quite clear about it.

After chatting with the others for a while, Kakashi said, "Starting tomorrow, Yu Ming, you will personally participate in the missions. I think your studies should be over by now."

Kakashi believed that Yu Ming would definitely not appear at this time until he had fully mastered the ninjutsu he wanted to learn.

Upon hearing the word "study," both Naruto and Sasuke perked up their ears.

Yu Ming nodded. "Although it was quite difficult, I've mastered it all."

Kakashi's gaze sharpened slightly.

"Completely mastered it?!"

Only he knew the weight of those words.

Yu Ming placed his hands on the table and said calmly, "Yes, I've mastered it all."

Kakashi was very excited, but he didn't show it on the surface.

"It seems I underestimated you before. I originally thought you would be good if you mastered one-third of it."

Yu Ming smiled and said, "I didn't expect that either, but it is indeed very difficult."

"I didn't expect it would take me more than three months to fully master it."

Chapter 63

Yu Ming's words left Kakashi speechless.

What does it mean to take three months to fully master something?

It wasn't that he hadn't learned those forbidden techniques; back then, he was a key talent cultivated by the fourth generation, and he had learned a little bit of those forbidden techniques.

But he didn't learn any of them.

Of course, there are also limitations imposed by his own circumstances.

However, Yu Ming learned the Flying Thunder God Technique, all Wood Release ninjutsu, Impure World Reincarnation, Reaper Death Seal, and even the S-rank forbidden technique, Mutual Explosion Tags, all at once.

He actually said it took him three months to learn it.

A normal ninja, let alone three months, might not even be able to learn one of them in a lifetime.

In particular, Kakashi felt that the Flying Thunder God Technique was very suitable for him.

But no matter how hard I try, I can't learn it.

Seeing Kakashi's expression change, Yu Ming smiled awkwardly, "What's the mission for tomorrow, Kakashi-sensei?"

Yu Ming just wanted to change the subject.

Kakashi sighed. "I don't know, but it'll probably be some D-rank missions."

They're still genin, so it's normal for them to do D-rank missions.

Naruto complained, "Kakashi-sensei, I've had enough! Every day it's just picking up trash or catching cats and dogs. When can we get a more challenging mission?"

Kakashi looked at Naruto and said, "You're a genin now, so you can only do D-rank missions, or at most C-rank missions."

Naruto retorted, "But we haven't received a single C-rank mission yet."

Kakashi smiled slightly and said, "That just means we're not strong enough yet."

Sasuke and Sakura were watching Yu Ming the whole time.

They all wanted to know what exactly Yu Ming and Kakashi meant by "mastering".

After talking for only one night, Yu Ming and Kakashi still couldn't explain what exactly they had mastered.

The next morning, Yu Ming followed Kakashi to the Hokage's office.

Naruto is arguing with the Third Hokage; he wants a more difficult mission.

The Third Hokage, smoking a cigarette, calmly watched Naruto.

She would glance at Yu Ming every now and then.

He felt that Yu Ming today was the real him.

"Yu Ming, you've come in person today, haven't you?"

Now, even the Third Hokage can't distinguish Yu Ming's Shadow Clone Technique.

This is enough to show that he is already very strong.

Yu Ming nodded. "Yes."

The Third Hokage laughed and said, "That means you must have mastered that technique."

Yu Ming nodded. "I know how to use it."

Yu Ming was actually being modest. The Third Generation knew that Yu Ming was being modest. Yu Ming clearly had a complete grasp of the situation, otherwise he would never have rejoined the team.
