Naruto: Start by Unlocking the Power of Death

It was as if he was reborn, and his progress was extremely rapid. When Yoruichi said that he had mastered the A-level ninjutsu Chidori, no one would doubt it!

"Is it...?" Even Kakashi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, he also didn't think that Yoruichi was deceiving them for the sake of dignity.

But it counts, what does that mean?

Kakashi looked at Yoruichi and could indeed feel that the current Yoruichi had changed a lot. She was like two completely different people from the Yoruichi in the Ninjutsu School...

"Okay, don't worry about this, let's eat first! Hong, this is for you to try..." Asuma glanced at Yoruichi and Kakashi, couldn't help but curled his lips, and then invited everyone to eat, and more importantly, he was trying to be attentive to Yuhi Kurenai...

Chapter 10: Selection of Special Jonin

One morning a few days later.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the trees, casting mottled traces, which is magnificent.

As usual, Ye Yi woke up very early, washed up quickly, had breakfast, and headed towards a place.

"What exactly is the mission? Is there something wrong at the border again?" Ye Yi frowned slightly and thought as he walked.

Just yesterday, he received a mission, requiring him to meet up at a training ground in Konoha today. Yoruichi had no idea what the mission was.

Border frictions are not very serious now, and all major countries are very restrained towards each other, so it should not be a problem over there.

I didn't think too much about it. As long as I arrived at the assembly point, I would know what the mission was.

"There are quite a lot of people..." At this time, many people have gathered at the gathering point. Ye Yichu took a quick look and saw that there were dozens of people, and more people were coming in one after another. There should be more people.

Ye Yi didn’t recognize many of the people, and their ages varied, some were even over 20 years old.

Of course, there are also classmates that Yoruichi is familiar with, such as Might Guy, Kurenai Yuhi, Anko Mitarashi, Genma Shiranui, Asuma, Hayate Gekkou, Yugao Uzumaki... and others are all there.

Daisei and Nami, who were on Yoruichi's previous team, were also there.

They also saw Yoruichi and greeted him.

Yoruichi walked towards his classmate and after a brief greeting, he said, "Why are so many people gathered here? Is there some big move in the village?"

Just now, Yoruichi's perception had spread out, and she found that almost all those who came here were Chunins, which gave Yoruichi some more guesses in her mind.

As the son of the Third Hokage, Asuma was the most informed. He explained, "What's the big move? The village just wants to select some special Jonin."

"Special jonin?" Several classmates were surprised.

Although the Special Jonin is not a real Jonin, he can lead a ninja team in wartime.

He is a ninja with a little bit of power.

Asuma looked around and then whispered mysteriously, "Of course, being a special jonin is just an excuse. There are actually other reasons."

The others were all curious and looked at Asuma: "What's the reason?"

Asuma seemed to like the feeling of being noticed by others. He boasted in a low voice: "Didn't the Fourth Hokage just take office? Every Hokage must have his own Shadow Guard. Originally, the Shadow Guards were either selected from the Anbu or from the village's Jonin. However, the Fourth Hokage intends to personally select and train the Shadow Guards from the young people. This time, there must be this reason..."

Perhaps he felt that what he said was too much, so he added: "Well, it's probably like this..."

The Hokage's Shadow Guards may not be the strongest ninjas in the village, but they are definitely one of the better treated ninjas.

In some ways, they are even higher than other jonin. After all, as the Shadow Guards of the Hokage, in some ways, they represent the Hokage!

Their positions and treatment are much higher than those of ordinary jonin!

After hearing Asuma's words, several classmates nodded: "I see."

Because of the war, the number of junin in the village has decreased sharply, and the village has to promote people to supplement the number of junin, so there is a special selection of junin this time!

By the way, this also allows the Fourth Generation to prepare for selecting the Shadow Guards, so it kills two birds with one stone!

Shiranui Genma said: "In this way, the Fourth Hokage-sama should watch this selection?"

Asuma was not sure: "Probably. The selection was mentioned by the Fourth-Hai. Even if the Fourth-Hai did not come in person, the selection process would definitely be sent to the Fourth-Hai's desk."

And Yoruichi's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself: "If I remember correctly, in the original work, there seemed to be only three of the Fourth Generation's Shadow Guards, and they also learned Flying Thunder God... Shiranui Genma seemed to be one of the Shadow Guards..."

Yoruichi glanced at Shiranui Genma beside him without leaving a trace, and speculated in his heart: "The Fourth Hokage's Shadow Guard is a good job. I even have the opportunity to learn the space-time ninjutsu of Flying Thunder God. If I can learn it... But there are some disadvantages. That is, I have to follow the Fourth Hokage's side to guard him all the time. For me, it's not free enough..."

Thinking of this, Yoruichi shook his head slightly. Flying Thunder God is good, but if the price is to lose some freedom, Yoruichi doesn't want it...

"The Shadow Guard, they're even more impressive than the Jonin!" Mitarashi Anko pursed her lips, her face full of longing.

Asuma also said at the right time: "I just know that the Fourth Generation has this idea. As for whether the Shadow Guard will be selected this time, I am not sure..."

"Tsk... I thought you knew everything!" Hongdou looked at Asuma and pouted: "You just know how to brag."

Asuma choked and stole a glance at Yuhi Kurenai. Seeing that she didn't show any strange expression, he breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Hongdou: "Anyway, I definitely know more than you guys!"

"Let alone the Shadow Guards, even the fight for the special jonin is very difficult. Are you sure?" Shiranui Genjian came out to smooth things over, holding a toothpick in his mouth, and his tone was not very confident: "Just now, I saw people from the Uchiha clan, and a Hyuga clan like Yoruichi. People from the two blood-stained noble families are here..."

"The Uchiha clan? I heard that there is a Uchiha Shisui who opened the three-magatama Sharingan when he was about ten years old? He even has a record of killing jonin. He is a genius who is not inferior to Kakashi!" Gekkou Gale is not a tuberculosis patient yet. He looked in one direction of the crowd, where there were people from the Uchiha clan.

"Uchiha, Sharingan..." Kai also looked over. He considered himself to be Kakashi's lifelong enemy, and Kakashi also had a Sharingan at this time, so Kai was more or less concerned about the Uchiha clan who possessed the Sharingan.

"Uchiha Shisui..." When Yoruichi heard the name, he looked over and saw a not very tall boy among the Uchiha clan.

That person was none other than Uchiha Shisui!

Yoruichi knew about Uchiha Shisui. After all, he had read the original work and knew that Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan ability - Kotoamatsukami, was simply a BUG-level illusion.

I just wonder if Uchiha Shisui has already opened the Mangekyō Sharingan?

However, thinking of Uchiha Shisui's current age, Yoruichi shook his head slightly. Uchiha Shisui is only about eleven years old now, how is it possible for him to open the Mangekyō Sharingan?

However, just when his observation Haki swept over Uchiha Shisui, Yoruichi narrowed his eyes slightly. In his perception, there was an extremely strong power hidden in Uchiha Shisui's body!

It even gave Ye Yi a feeling that if he exploded, no one present would be able to defeat him...

"Has the Mangekyo been activated?" Yoruichi whispered, feeling somewhat surprised. This feeling was not false. Uchiha Shisui definitely possessed a very strong power!

It's not even something he can contend with now!

And just when Yoruichi's perception fell on Uchiha Shisui, Shisui seemed to have noticed something, turned his head to look at Yoruichi, and looked at Yoruichi.

"Sharp perception... can it even detect the perception of observation?" Yoruichi was slightly startled, and his evaluation of the Mangekyo improved a little...

Seeing Shisui looking over, Yoruichi just nodded slightly at him.

Shisui nodded and turned back, but he was talking to himself: "Hyuga clan, was that spying just now byakugan? But that person didn't seem to have his byakugan turned on..."

Just now, his keen perception did indeed allow him to sense that he was being spied on by someone. Of course, that spying was not malicious, so he did not take it seriously.

I just thought that Yoruichi was observing the surroundings and happened to fall on me, but my perception was too sharp and I noticed Yoruichi's gaze.

This is just an episode.

As time went by, more and more people gathered here, almost a hundred people.

Chapter 11 Assessment

There were quite a few people coming, but they were basically all Chunin-level ninjas.

This time, the gathering should be consistent with Asuma's judgment. The main purpose is to select special jonin. The fourth generation's shadow guards may also be selected and trained from this selection...

Yoruichi's observation Haki is very good. After all the Chunins arrived here, she vaguely sensed that someone was spying on this place.

"Are they the two Kages of the village?" Yoruichi guessed in his heart, and looked around. No one else showed any strange expressions. Only Uchiha Shisui himself could vaguely sense a hint of spying.

The other Chunins didn't even know that this place had been spied on...

But think about it, most of the people here are Chunins, and their abilities in various aspects are not outstanding, so it is normal that they did not notice the Kage-level snooping.

At this time, several ninjas wearing Anbu masks came from a distance.

Their arrival made everyone present quiet down for a moment.

"Who is that? Kakashi?" Kai looked at one of the Anbu ninjas who was wearing a fox mask and had two swords behind his back.

He probably had a special way to identify Kakashi, and he recognized him immediately by judging by his footsteps.

That Anbu ninja was none other than their classmate Kakashi!

"Anbu jonin? Are they testing us to become special jonin?" Shiranui Genma bit a toothpick and pouted slightly as he looked at several masked ANBU members.

The others shook their heads; they didn't know either.

"Do you know what the assessment for special jonin is like?" Kurenai Yuhi looked at the people around her.

However, when Asuma heard Yuhi Kurenai's question, he was instantly inspired. He was well-informed and knew some inside information, so he explained: "Special jonin are not real jonin. As long as they are outstanding in some aspects, they may be selected. The specific assessment this time should be comprehensive strength, and there are other considerations."

Special jonin are not real jonin. As long as they are unique in some aspects, they will be promoted to special jonin.

The requirements for becoming a jonin are still very high, and one must meet the standards in all aspects. Among this group of people of similar age, only Kakashi became a jonin.

I have to say, Kakashi's talent is really strong. He has broken countless records and even made a name for himself on the battlefield!

"Comprehensive strength... then I have no hope..." Hongdou lowered her head, feeling that she had no hope.

Seeing Hongdou's look, the other classmates were speechless. You gave up before the fight even started?

Shiranui Genma even said directly: "Red Bean, as a disciple of Lord Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, don't you even have this little confidence?"

"That's because the teacher is strong, not me. Besides, I'm younger than all of you. It's not fair at all!" Hongdou looked as if she had lost her parents.

"If it doesn't work this time, there's always next time. My overall combat capability is just average..." Xihi Hong also comforted her. In fact, she herself didn't have much confidence...

Asuma immediately flattered him: "Hong, your illusion is still very strong. There is great hope!"

"Illusion? Look over there..." Hong nodded slightly, indicating that there were still people from the Uchiha clan over there.

"Uh..." Asuma was speechless for a while.

As we all know, almost all the Uchiha clan's Sharingan are experts in illusion. Although Kurenai's illusion is not weak either, it pales in comparison with the Uchiha clan's.

Asuma smiled awkwardly, "That's different. They are cheating! Cheating!"

After hearing this, everyone looked at Asuma speechlessly.

……

Over there, several ANBU jonin didn't waste any time talking. One of them shouted directly to everyone, "Everyone, assemble!"

'Wow...'

Within ten seconds, the originally chaotic scene became orderly.

One of the ANBU Jounin stood up, and swept over everyone present with an aggressive gaze from behind the mask. His chakra suddenly burst out, and a murderous intent was released along with wind pressure, making many people present feel a sense of pressure.

Some people were caught off guard by the sudden pressure and fell to the ground.

Some could not bear the pressure and knelt on one knee with beads of sweat pouring down their foreheads.

Glancing at those who had fallen to the ground or who could not bear the pressure, the jonin said coldly, "You all should know the purpose of gathering here this time, right? All those who are careless and cannot bear the oppression will be eliminated!"

After hearing this, the faces of those who were eliminated turned pale, as if they had lost their parents. They had never thought that they would be eliminated because of their carelessness...

Without paying any more attention to the eliminated people, the jonin continued, "You are all ninjas who have experienced the baptism of war and survived the difficult war. No matter who you are, whether you are a civilian or a ninja, today is your chance!"

"Special Jonin is the only way to become a Jonin. Many Jonins are promoted from Special Jonin. I am one of them, not to mention others!"

"The Fourth Hokage has just taken office and is in need of manpower! Work hard, and I hope you can seize this opportunity and become the new pillar of Konoha Village!"

After a few words of encouragement, the jonin announced the content of the test.

Assessment is nothing more than a battle.

Combat is the best way to measure a ninja's overall quality.

Combat power, experience, and the use of ninjutsu can all be seen in battle!

Because it is an assessment for special jonin, the requirements are not as difficult as those for jonin. As long as you have enough combat power or outstanding performance in certain aspects, you still have the opportunity to become a special jonin even if you lose in the battle.

Although all the standards were up to these ANBU jonin, many of them still breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that they would not be eliminated if they lost.

This means that those of them who are not very powerful still have a chance to become special jonin!

Soon, the assessment began.

One of the Anbu ninjas directly pressed the ground with his hands, and several platforms appeared directly on the field.

The assessment was conducted by drawing lots, and unfortunately, Ye Yi was one of the first people to take the stage.

His opponent was an unknown Chunin, who was a few years older than Yoruichi and looked to be close to twenty.

However, after seeing Yoruichi's pair of pure white eyes, the Chunin's face fell. It was really unlucky that he encountered a member of the Hyuga clan in the first game...

The Byakugan bloodstains of the Hyuga clan are extremely advantageous in a battle at the Chunin level. Almost any attack you make will not escape the Byakugan's detection, and if you get close you will be hit by the soft fist. If possible, he doesn't want to encounter these perverted bloodstain ninjas...
