Kakashi found it hard to believe that the other party was a self-taught puppeteer, as he had such a high level of puppetry at the age of no more than eighteen.
For a ninjutsu school that has only been around a short time, the teacher's level is very important.
Of course, since there is no evidence, it is impossible for Kakashi to report the sand crab. At most, he should pay more attention to the other party.
Under Xie's superb puppetry, Shi Xiong was quickly forced into a desperate situation and lost the battle.
"The sand crab wins and advances to the knockout round!"
After the referee announced the result of the battle, Xie quickly put away the puppet, ignored everyone and walked directly outside.
He is not interested in anything here. The reason why Scorpion came here is just because the fourth one has a chakra knife worth tens of millions of taels.
He wanted to melt the chakra knife and use it for puppet making.
Xie didn't care about other players and had no intention of gathering intelligence. His goal was only fourth place.
In fact, Scorpion felt that if he used all his strength, it would be easy to take first place. After all, he was one of the few people in the ninja world who had killed Kage.
However, Xie didn't have this idea at all. First, the reward he needed was the fourth place reward, and second, he might not be able to receive the award even if he used all his strength.
Scorpion can only participate in the competition using the identity of other people.
Although he is not wanted by Sunagakure yet, there are Sunagakure ninjas at the martial arts conference. If he takes out the human puppet of the Third Kazekage, Sunagakure will definitely summon ninjas to hunt him down immediately.
Scorpio doesn't want to be exposed before the goal is achieved.
……
Since the shadow clone finished watching Scorpion's battle, Kakashi's main body went directly to the competition area where Nagato was.
Nagato's fighting style is still so simple and unpretentious, with powerful ninjutsu bombings forcing his opponents to surrender.
"Nagato, let's go. Yahiko's side should be almost over." Konan said to Nagato.
She and Nagato are players in the same division, but her number is very high.
Nagato nodded and went to the competition area where Yahiko was with Konan.
Kakashi showed a thoughtful expression when he saw this. This powerful female ninja should also be a member of the Akatsuki organization.
Because the Akatsuki organization was still harmless, Kakashi didn't think too much and went to find several other companions who had successfully advanced.
"The qualifiers have ended successfully." Nohara Lin put her hands together and smiled softly.
Before the fight, Nohara Lin was actually worried that she would not advance to the knockout rounds.
After staying with Kakashi and the others for a long time, Nohara Rin always felt that she was weak and just a powerless nanny.
After playing four rounds in the qualifying round, Nohara Lin's confidence suddenly returned.
She only felt that those opponents were extremely weak. Even the opponents in the fourth round could not withstand her explosive punch.
"Hey, Xiaolin, you performed very well. Many players were surprised."
Obito couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Nohara Rin's punch that cracked the ground and the onlookers were stunned.
Obito felt that this could not be blamed on the other players' lack of experience. Who would have thought that Nohara Lin, a cute-looking girl, could have such strange powers.
"It's okay. I'm still a long way from you guys. I need to keep working hard." Nohara Lin waved her hand and smiled. She didn't get cocky because of her performance in the preliminaries.
Nohara Lin felt that the day when other disciples would not subconsciously exclude her during the civil war, then her strength would be something to be proud of.
Since the qualifying rounds were over, ninjas from the same ninja village started communicating one after another, and the same was true in Konoha.
"This youth martial arts association has many good ninjas. It's normal to be unlucky and not advance." Asuma comforted Yuhi Kurenai who was eliminated in the fourth round.
Only one person from their team, Asuma, advanced, and the remaining two were eliminated.
"Indeed." Bing Zu Lei sighed.
He was a typical unlucky person to meet a pervert like Nagato.
"I'm afraid only Kakashi and the others have a chance to defeat Nagato." Namashi Rai thought in his heart.
In the heart of Amaizu Raido, only the abnormal can defeat the abnormal. Although Asuma is still a genius, he is obviously not Nagato's opponent.
"Asuma, Aburame Shimi... In this way, ten ninjas have advanced to Konoha, occupying almost one-third of the positions in the knockout rounds." Kakashi listened silently and calculated in his mind the total number of people in Konoha to advance.
Kakashi estimated that someone would encounter ninjas from the same village in the first round of the knockout round. There were too many ninjas in Konoha who advanced.
When the Konoha ninja group returned to the hotel, Kakashi conducted a wave of information exchanges with other Konoha ninjas and told the other Konoha ninjas the information they collected.
After all, this is a competition within the ninja world, and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Daimyo of the Land of Rain will be watching. The more Konoha ninjas advance, the more face Konoha will have, and it will also be easier to get the Daimyo's gold coins.
At the same time, Nagato and the others were also listening to information.
"There are many talented ninjas from Konoha, including Hatake Kakashi, who is good at lightning sword techniques. Throughout the preliminaries, all opponents were killed instantly by Hatake Kakashi."
"In addition, there is Uchiha Shisui who is good at illusion fire escape, and Might Guy who is good at physical skills..." Kakuzu said the information collected by the Ninja Clan referee.
"Minister Kakuzu, isn't it good for us to do this?" Yahiko said, scratching his head.
Although gathering information can be considered a part of ninja combat, using the referee's information always feels like cheating.
"What's wrong? It's all about gathering intelligence. What difference can there be? That Hatake Kakashi did very well in this regard. He ran around as soon as the battle was over. He completely watched all of Nagato's battles." Kakuzu said. They all replied with indifferent expressions.
Nagato's expression remained unchanged. The intensity of the qualifying battle was too low. He didn't use any of his Rinnegan abilities. It didn't matter if Kakashi saw him.
"Nagato, you should feel free to do it. As for Yahiko and Konan, in addition to the Konoha ninjas I mentioned, you also have to be careful of Kirigakure's Terumi Mei and Oniden Mangetsu, as well as the dried persimmon Kisame, the explosive Feldspar, and the sand who uses the puppet technique. Crab..." Kakuzu continued.
Although Yahiko and Konan are good in strength, there are indeed many ruthless ninjas entering the knockout rounds. Kakuzu estimates that Konan and Yahiko may have a hard time even reaching the top eight.
"It's true that there are people outside the world and there is a world outside the world." Yahiko said with emotion.
Before the competition started, he felt that he would definitely get a good ranking.
But now after listening to Kakuzu's information, Yahiko feels that even if the top eight are successful, the top 16 are still okay. If they can't make it to the first round, it means they are not lucky.
"I will take action to win the first place." Nagato said solemnly.
Even if the opponent is Mu Yue's other disciples, Nagato will never give up the first place to him.
The more talented ninjas come, the more it proves the gold content of the Youth Budokai. Not only must he win the first place, but he must also win the first place with a strong attitude and let the ninja village ninja organizations know that Ninja Master Sosuke is not the only one in the Ninja Sect. , and his disciples are also excellent.
If you want to cause trouble in the Land of Rain in the future, you should first weigh your own strength to see if you can withstand the alliance between the Ninja Sect and the Rain Ninja.
……
The morning after the qualifying rounds ended, the Youth Budokai knockout rounds officially began.
This time is very different from the qualifiers.
The knockout battle takes place at the martial arts venue specially built by the Ninja Sect for the Youth Martial Arts Association.
The martial arts venue is a circular venue that can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.
However, due to the short construction period, the style is relatively rough, and exposed rock walls and mud walls can be seen everywhere.
Fortunately, house decoration in the ninja world is not very developed at present, which can be explained as the characteristic architectural style of the Land of Earth.
In a sense, that's true. It was indeed built with the help of the Iwagakure ninjas.
A large number of spectators entered the venue one by one with tickets purchased in advance, including ninjas and nobles and wealthy businessmen.
When the general audience entered, the Daimyo of the Country of Rain and the Daimyo of the Country of Fire, surrounded by a group of noble officials and ninjas, reached the best seats in the front row, and Mu Yue's shadow clone was also among them.
At the same time, Mu Yue and Hanzo also started to enter.
However, their position was not in the audience seats, but at a high point where they could observe the entire venue.
It’s not that the daimyo is not worthy of sitting there, but if the daimyo sits there, he can basically only pick his fingers and can’t see the game clearly.
"Teacher Soyousuke!" A ninja who had attended the class before greeted Mu Yue loudly.
Many ninjas who passed the class came to the martial arts meeting, just to support Mu Yue for no other reason.
"But these front row seats are really expensive." A ninja sighed.
"It's like paying for a course from the top ninja master, and it also comes with a ticket to a ninja-level event." The ninja next to him replied.
The ninja who complained about expensive things really thought about it carefully, and when he thought about it, the money was not wasted.
Mu Yue smiled in response to the ninja who greeted him.
"Hanzo-sama." Some rain ninjas thought that their leader could not lose his popularity and shouted.
Hanzo said nothing with a sullen face. He just wanted to quickly walk to where he was sitting and watch the game until the end.
He didn't want to hear anyone discussing him being defeated by the First Prize or anything.
At this time, the battle has not yet started, and the contestants are also at the venue. When they heard that the ninja master Sosuke Sosuke and the demigod Hanzo arrived, they all looked towards Mu Yue.
"This is the ninja master. He looks older than Mu Yue-sensei, but Mu Yue-sensei is indeed stronger." Obito opened his Sharingan and looked at it carefully for a few times before coming to the conclusion.
Kakashi's initial focus of observation was also on Soyousuke, until he noticed the expressions of Nagato Yahiko and others not far away.
Kakashi found that Nagato, Yahiko and the others looked at Soyousuke with extraordinary respect, just like Obito looked at Mugetsu.
"Could it be that the Ninja sect has some connection with the Akatsuki organization?" Kakashi had a suspicion in his mind.
Kakashi has always wondered why the peaceful and seemingly positive Akatsuki organization would turn into an evil terrorist organization in the future.
He felt that the ninja sect might have played some unknown role in it.
"The information we have is still too little. Yamato should be asked to write out everything in the future." Kakashi wanted to deduce, but found that the amount of information was not enough.
He didn't know how the Ninja Sect would end, nor what would become of Soyousuke, the Ninja Master, in the future. Naturally, he couldn't infer the relationship between the Ninja Sect and the Akatsuki organization.
Kakashi decided to train Yamato after returning to Konoha. He was so ignorant that he unconsciously wrote out all the futures.
After looking at Yahiko and then at Obito, Kakashi thought of a way.
Kakashi secretly poked Obito with his finger, who was chatting eloquently with Nohara Rin.
Obito, who was interrupted, looked at Kakashi with an unhappy expression.
Kakashi glanced at Yahiko, then at Soyousuke on the high platform, and finally looked at Obito.
"You are really good at summoning people, why don't you ask yourself." Obito couldn't help but complain.
Kakashi's intention was obvious, asking him to ask Yahiko about his relationship with the leader of the Ninja Sect, Soyousuke.
But now that Kakashi does not have the status of vice-captain, how could Obito listen to Kakashi's orders? Obito likes to say no to the self-righteous Kakashi.
Kakashi didn't speak, but silently took out a photo from his ninja bag.
Obito's expression suddenly changed, he grabbed Kakashi's hand and pressed it back. There were so many people present. If word spread, wouldn't it be embarrassing to the ninja world?
"I'll go, I like asking questions to people the most." Obito could only curse Kakashi in his heart and then agreed.
Kakashi then put the photo back into his ninja bag.
Fools have their uses, and Obito's innocence can sometimes work wonders. Once in the Land of Rain, Yahiko had a pleasant conversation with Obito.

"Ahem, um... Yahiko, long time no see." Obito walked up reluctantly and said hello.
Yahiko looked back when he heard someone calling his name.
"Long time no see, Obito." Yahiko responded with a smile.
Although he only met Obito once, Yahiko had a deep impression of Obito because Obito said that he would become Hokage and end the war.
And Obito is also a ninja who needs to pay attention to Kakuzu's intelligence.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet him here." Obito walked up to Yahiko and said.
"Yeah." Yahiko nodded and couldn't help laughing when he thought of something.
"Haha, but it seems a bit early for us to meet again. Neither of us is famous in the ninja world."
At that meeting, Yahiko and Obito agreed that the next time they heard news about each other, they would already be famous in the ninja world. In this situation, it obviously failed.
Both Yahiko and Obito are only famous in their own circles and have not been out of the ninja world.
"Isn't this on the way to becoming famous in the ninja world? If we all enter the finals, our fame will be great." Obito replied with a smile.
The Youth Budokai is different from the Ninja Village's Joint Chuunin Exam. This has really attracted huge attention in the Ninja world. If you can get the first place, purely in terms of spread, it will definitely be famous in the Ninja world. .
"It's true." Yahiko thought it was true. With the popularity of the Youth Martial Arts Club, the top two would definitely gain huge attention.
"Xiao Lin, have you seen my photo? You won't lose it, right?" Kakashi deliberately raised his voice and asked Nohara Lin.
