Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Yu Ming also learned a sealing technique from the Book of Seals that seemed to have no effect, but was of great use to him.

To be precise, it's a stealth ninjutsu.

Yu Ming applied this ninjutsu to both of his eyes.

Even if he uses the Sharingan from now on, no one will know.

In fact, with Yu Ming's current strength, he doesn't need to hide anything; it's just that he really doesn't want to become a rogue ninja.

The Sharingan and Wood Release are both forbidden bloodline limits for Konoha.

Therefore, Yu Ming will not use it easily.

The Sharingan can be used now, but it's obviously impossible to use a conspicuous ninjutsu like Susanoo.

Unless Yu Ming doesn't want to stay in Konoha anymore.

Yu Ming had no interest in becoming a rogue ninja.

Moreover, there are no battles that require him to use Susanoo and Wood Release, at least not now.

He has many forbidden techniques at his disposal.

The Third Hokage smiled happily and said, "This ninjutsu has not been mastered since the Fourth Hokage. Now that you have mastered it, I hope you can reach the same level as the Fourth Hokage in the future."

Yu Ming didn't feel anything about what the Third Generation said.

However, Naruto and Sasuke understood one thing: what Kakashi and Yu Ming meant by "mastering" last night was that Yu Ming had mastered a Fourth Hokage ninjutsu.

Naruto, being straightforward, asked directly, "Grandpa Hokage, what ninjutsu has Yu Ming mastered?"

"And it's a ninjutsu from the Fourth Hokage, isn't it powerful? Can I learn it?"

The Third Hokage smiled and said, "This ninjutsu is indeed the Fourth Hokage's, but it's not suitable for you."

The Flying Thunder God Technique requires extremely high talent, which Naruto clearly cannot learn, at least that's what the Third Hokage thought.

Even Kakashi and Orochimaru couldn't learn it.

Naruto is even less likely to be one of them.

Moreover, Naruto is now at least a genin, and his strength is also considerable.

But Naruto was a little annoyed. "Why? You didn't even let me learn it."

The Third Hokage suddenly became serious. "Naruto, this ninjutsu was obtained by Yu Ming at the cost of his life, and it is very dangerous. If you don't master it, you will die. Do you still want to learn it?"

Naruto was terrified; learning this ninjutsu could actually lead to death.

At this point, Naruto was still quite afraid of dying.

Sasuke, however, noticed a problem with the Third Hokage's words: "Yu Ming risked his life for it? What happened?"

Naruto was also stunned for a moment. "Yeah, it was exchanged for Yu Ming's life?"

The Third Hokage looked at Kakashi and smiled, "You can ask Kakashi yourselves when you get back. But since you're so eager to take on a high-difficulty mission, I'll give you a C-rank mission."

Naruto was quickly drawn to the C-rank mission, completely forgetting what had just happened. "C-rank mission? What? Is it to protect the daimyo? Or the princess?"

Most C-rank missions are escort missions, but Naruto was thinking a lot about how escorting a princess and a daimyo could be a C-rank mission.

Kakashi was quite helpless, looking at Naruto like this.

The Third Hokage was quite pleased to see Naruto like this; at least he was full of sunshine, and such a Jinchuriki was beneficial to the village.

The Third Hokage also hoped that Naruto could aspire to the light, which is why he didn't hand Naruto over to Danzo, because if he did, Naruto would definitely be trained into a killing machine.

The third generation laughed and said, "It's to protect someone."

"Mr. Tazner, please come in."

The door to the Hokage's office opened.

Tazner walked in carrying a bottle of Linglong 852 liquor.

He was already somewhat drunk.

Naruto looked expectantly at the door, but the moment Dazuna walked in, he froze. "How could it be someone like this? Are you kidding me? Are we supposed to protect a drunken old man?"

Tazuna was stunned when he saw Kakashi's squad, and said with some dissatisfaction, "What is this? Why would they send me such brats? Especially that shorty."

Naruto didn't realize what was going on and thought it wasn't about him, so he laughed and said, "Hahaha, who's that shorty?"

He glanced at Sasuke, Sakura, Kakashi, and Yu Ming, then snapped, "Damn it, who are you calling a dwarf, you drunkard?"

Tazuna chuckled, and if Naruto still couldn't see the disdain in his eyes, he would be truly stupid.

"Damn it, you bastard, let's fight one-on-one!"

Chapter 64

However, he was held back by Sakura and Sasuke.

Sakura said speechlessly, "Naruto, stop messing around. He's the client. What are you trying to do?"

Actually, Sakura didn't want to protect a drunkard, especially an old man.

Sasuke thought the same thing.

Yu Ming, however, didn't care.

Kakashi reluctantly accepted the request.

He led Yu Ming and the other three, along with Tazna, out.

Although Naruto was somewhat dissatisfied with this mission, it was still a mission outside the village, and it was his first time leaving the village.

So he still prepared a lot of things.

At the entrance to the village, Yu Ming appeared to be unprepared.

Tazuna was also curious, looking at Yu Ming and asking, "Hey bro, why does your team have four people? Aren't ninja teams usually three?"

Yu Ming smiled slightly and said, "Although a team of four is rare, it's not unheard of. Perhaps our team is a bit special."

Kakashi laughed and said, "Because there was one extra person when we divided the classes this year."

Actually, Kakashi just said that casually.

An extra person would usually be sent back to the ninja academy to continue their studies.

It's just that today is a bit special.

Tazner seemed very interested in Yu Ming, and he always felt that Yu Ming was not simple.

"They've all gone back to prepare, why aren't you preparing at all? Are you so confident? Are you very strong?"

Yu Ming smiled but didn't say anything.

The old man asked too many questions, and Yu Ming didn't want to answer them.

Kakashi then smiled and said, "Mr. Tazuna, please rest assured. Even if you are not confident in their strength, you can be completely confident in my strength."

Tazuna didn't actually know who Kakashi was.

After all, it used to be a small country; it was really just a small island.

Yu Ming then added, "My teacher, Kakashi, is a renowned Jonin in the ninja world, so you can rest assured. Moreover, this mission is only a C-rank mission, which can actually be completed by a Genin."

"Your mission this time is led by Kakashi-sensei, which is why there is a Jonin accompanying you. Normally, for such missions, at most a Chunin would lead the team."

Although Yu Ming put it rather bluntly, Tazna understood.

He just knew what the situation was like for this mission.

However, seeing Kakashi put his mind at ease, since at least there was still a Jonin present, who should be able to deal with the ninja that Gato had brought.

Soon, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke arrived carrying a travel bag.

At least three people noticed that Yu Ming and Kakashi hadn't brought anything with them.

Curious, he asked, "Kakashi-sensei, Yu Ming, why didn't you two bring anything?"

Naruto, in particular, was very curious.

Kakashi was speechless.

However, I still explained to the three of them again, "Because we all have space scrolls, and we have put our things in them, we don't need to bring too much stuff."

Kakashi explained it, and Sakura and Sasuke, except for Naruto, understood.

But Naruto didn't know what a spatial scroll was.

"Kakashi-sensei~".

Before he could even ask, Sakura knew what he wanted to ask and quickly explained, "A space scroll is a scroll that can hold things, which is very convenient, but space scrolls are a very expensive piece of equipment."

Naruto nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

But he quickly realized, "Then why does Yu Ming have it?"

It's normal for Kakashi to have it, so why does Yu Ming have it too?

Sasuke and Sakura were also a little curious.

Although Sasuke has a lot of wealth and doesn't have to worry about food or clothing, he can't just buy space scrolls whenever he wants.

A single spatial scroll costs one to two million taels of silver. Not only can a genin not have one, but even a jonin doesn't have one.

Yu Ming is just a genin and comes from a commoner background, so why would he have a spatial scroll?

Yu Ming did not explain.

Sakura and Sasuke were also curious, but they didn't ask.

Kakashi, seeing that Yu Ming didn't want to explain, explained to him, "It was a reward from the Third Hokage for the last mission. Didn't the Third Hokage say in the Hokage's room just now that Yu Ming risked his life to obtain this ninjutsu?"

"This ninjutsu was given to the Third Hokage as a reward for Yu Ming completing an S-rank mission more than three months ago."

Kakashi had just finished speaking.

Sasuke sensed a sense of unease. "This guy actually completed an S-rank mission at such a young age. What a joke! He's just a genin."

Sakura and Naruto were also shocked. "An S-rank mission? Are you kidding me?"

Even Tazuna was shocked. He never expected that this genin in front of him would actually complete an S-rank mission.

This already speaks volumes about his ability.
