Konoha teaches, then stands in the sky

"Until this year, he was still getting stronger at an astonishing rate." Ohnoki continued in a deep voice.

"His Ice Release was only revealed during the battle with Kirigakure last year. Now he can freeze Jinchūriki in ice. The most powerful Ice Release can kill more than a dozen Jonin in an instant."

"Old Zi, who has not yet fully transformed into a tailed beast, has almost no ability to fight back against his water jutsu."

As they got to know Mu Yue better, the top leaders of Yanyin found it more and more outrageous.

It's not like they haven't seen strong young men before, such as Minato Namikaze of Konoha.

However, compared to Mu Yue, Namikaze Minato is undoubtedly much more normal. Before he killed so many people on the battlefield, Namikaze Minato was already a well-known senior ninja.

Every time Mu Yue appeared, his strength increased dramatically, as if he had just entered a period of rapid growth, which was very scary.

"He seldom used Fire Style in the battles with our troops this year, but you have to know one thing, he earned the title of Blazing Sun on the battlefield of Kirigakure, and Fire Style was his best ninjutsu before."

"I have no doubt that he can become a ninja who is proficient in all attributes like the Third Hokage. If he reaches the level of the Third Hokage, he will be stronger than the Third Hokage because he also masters Ice Release and Flying Thunder God Technique."

When Ōnoki described Mu Yue in this way, the Iwagakure leaders instantly broke out in a sweat.

The Third Hokage was already extremely strong, and now no ninja in the ninja world dares to say that he can definitely defeat the Third Hokage.

If Mu Yue can become an enhanced version of the Third Hokage, then there is a high probability that Mu Yue will become the recognized number one in the ninja world.

Looking at the expressions of the senior executives, Ohnoki nodded slightly in his heart.

If he said this and the top leaders still fail to realize the harm of Mu Yue and only regard Mu Yue as a character similar to Namikaze Minato, then Iwagakure will be doomed.

"If there is a chance to kill Hanyu Muyue, it will be worth it even if it means sacrificing a ninja army of 2,000 people!" Oonoki said seriously.

If there really is an enhanced version of the Third Hokage, it would be no less important to the current ninja world than the resurrection of Hashirama Senju or Madara Uchiha.

The Iwagakure leaders all nodded in agreement.

A troop of 2,000 people can be trained over time, but a genius with such a high upper limit like Mu Yue may only appear once in a hundred years.

Not to mention a ninja army of two thousand people, they even felt that even if a ninja army of three thousand people were used in exchange for Mu Yue's life, it would not be a loss.

On this day, Mu Yue topped the Yanyin Kill List.

Chapter 579 The First is Today

The land of grass.

Around the Konoha Ninja Army camp, Mu Yue is teaching the Observation Haki.

In addition to Obito, Shisui and others, Minato Namikaze was also learning Observation Haki from Mu Yue.

This was brought up by Mu Yue on his own initiative, with the reason being that it would be tiring for him alone to identify the Iwagakure spies, so he needed Minato Namikaze's help.

Mu Yue knew very well that once the information about the Land of Grass was passed back, no matter how much Sarutobi Hiruzen thought highly of him, he would find a way to make him hand over his Observation Haki.

Even if the person who possessed this ninjutsu was not him, Hanyu Mugetsu, but Namikaze Minato, the grandson of Sarutobi Hiruzen, or Jiraiya, the disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the result would be the same.

This kind of ninjutsu that can play a huge role in war must be handed over to Konoha no matter who possesses it. Otherwise, it means that he does not have the will of fire and does not love Konoha.

Since it has to be handed in sooner or later anyway, Mu Yue would of course give priority to teaching Minato Namikaze, with whom he has a better relationship.

Mu Yue was not very concerned about the Observation Haki Gaiden. After being localized, the threshold of Observation Haki was much higher than that of Armament Haki. The perception talent alone stopped a large number of people.

Moreover, having the talent for perception does not necessarily mean that one can learn the ability to observe and hear, which stops a large number of people.

Even if you can practice, it does not mean you can master it. After screening out a group of people, even if you can master it in the end, it does not mean you will have the special ability of observation and hearing.

There are only a few thousand ninjas in Konoha, and after multiple rounds of screening, I'm afraid that in the past few years, there are only a handful of ninjas who can improve their combat effectiveness by learning Observation Haki.

After a few years, Mu Yue may become invincible, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about these things.

If he really doesn't want to reveal his Observation Haki, there are actually many ways to do it.

The first one is the simplest and most brutal, and it is to find the reason why White Zetsu is found without using the Observation Haki to sense the malicious intent.

The second is not to teach Minato Namikaze the Observation Haki, so that Mu Yue can modify a castrated version of the Observation Haki and hand it in.

"In the early stages of cultivation, try not to use your eyes to observe, and avoid the opponent's attacks by feeling the opponent's breath." Mu Yue said the key points of the early stage of practicing Observation Haki.

Since there were no powerful beasts here, Mu Yue asked them to create shadow clones to practice with each other.

For example, let Shisui's shadow clone attack Obito, and let Obito's shadow clone attack Shisui, so they can exchange training with each other.

Since Minato Namikaze is of a different generation than Obito and the others, Minato Namikaze is assisted in his training by Mu Yue's shadow clone.

This brings up a problem. Without Minato Namikaze, who is in charge of Mu Yue, the number of ninjutsu of the Observation Haki training team becomes an odd number, and someone will be left alone.

Because Might Guy and Kakashi did not participate in the training of Observation Haki.

"Damn it, is Kakashi going to create a shadow clone to practice with Xiaolin?" Obito felt uncomfortable at the thought.

Mu Yue wanted to say that a person can create more than just one shadow clone.

However, in order to allow the disciples to interact harmoniously and friendly, Mu Yue did not remind them.

The final result was that Obito gave up training with Shisui and teamed up with Kakashi's shadow clone with the attitude of "if I don't go to hell, who will?"

Perhaps because it was an important training session, Kakashi and Obito did not quarrel.

"Mu Yue's talent in developing ninjutsu is not inferior to his talent in learning ninjutsu. He can actually develop such a perception ninjutsu." Namikaze Minato sighed in his heart during the break.

Minato Namikaze has a strong talent for perception and can also perceive ninjutsu, so his perception of observation Haki is deeper than that of Obito and the others.

In terms of difficulty, Mu Yue's observation Haki is the most difficult perception ninjutsu that Namikaze Minato has ever seen. Even someone like him who has some perception talent can clearly feel the difficulty.

According to Konoha's classification of ninjutsu levels, Observation Haki is a definite S-level ninjutsu.

What surprised Minato Namikaze the most was the possibility of observation Haki.

Although he had not started practicing for long, Namikaze Minato could feel from his own practice and Mu Yue's explanation that this was a ninjutsu that could be developed in depth in all directions.

Observation Haki can sense chakra over a large range like ordinary perception ninjutsu, and it can also be used more in combat to predict enemy attacks. It can also sense kindness and malice based on the depth of perception.

If it weren't for the perception talent and high difficulty threshold of Observation Haki, Namikaze Minato felt that some members of the Hyuga clan would be unemployed.

In addition, the value of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan will also decrease.

"Mu Yue, there is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" At this time, Jiraiya suddenly walked over, looked at Mu Yue and said with a smile.

Everyone present looked at Jiraiya. How could there be bad news after such a great victory?

Could it be that the intelligence team discovered that Iwagakure has sent more reinforcements into the Land of Grass?

"Good news." Mu Yue thought for a moment and replied.

He felt that whether it was good news or bad news, it should not be a big deal, otherwise Zilai would not have been so slow in letting him choose.

"The good news is that the higher-ups will reward you greatly. You'll probably get a lot of money, and if you want, you may even be given an important position in a certain department," Jiraiya replied.

If a ninja wants to become stronger, money is indispensable. Not to mention the various training resources, the consumption of various ninja tools alone is not a small amount of money. It is quite normal in Konoha to reward ninjas with large amounts of money for their meritorious service.

With salary increases, there will naturally be promotions.

However, due to the special nature of ninjas, not every ninja is willing to sit in an office to handle official business, so this depends on personal preference.

Take Jiraiya himself for example. Although he is one of the three most famous ninjas in the ninja world, if it is not a war period, he has no other identity in Konoha except that of a jonin.

Because Jiraiya had to travel around the ninja world looking for the child of prophecy to teach, it was certainly impossible for him to work in a department in Konoha.

Tsunade used to hold an important position in the medical department, but she resigned voluntarily after entering the open state.

"So what's the bad news?" Obito asked curiously.

"The higher-ups asked Mu Yue to bring some ninjas back to Konoha, and they have to set off tomorrow." Jiraiya said with a sigh.

"This should be considered good news, right?" Namikaze Minato said puzzledly.

It would certainly be more comfortable to return to Konoha than to be on a dangerous battlefield.

"If Mu Yue goes back, where can we go to eat such delicious food?" Jiraiya patted Minato Namikaze's shoulder with annoyance.

They look similar, but why is there such a big difference in their skills? If only they could be half as good as Mu Yue, that would be enough.

Minato Namikaze scratched his hair and had to admit that Jiraiya's words were correct. Mu Yue's return was indeed bad news for them.

Not only were the levels of the three meals greatly reduced, but there was also one less force capable of suppressing the Jinchūriki.

"It's noon now. I'll go prepare lunch." Mu Yue said with a faint smile.

Jiraiya wasn't just hinting, he almost had the words "I want to eat for free" written on his face.

"You guys don't practice for now. Rest for a while after dinner before practicing again." Mu Yue turned and said to the disciples.

Shisui and the others stopped obediently. Those who could help went to help, and those who couldn't help just waited quietly for dinner time.

When the meal officially started, the atmosphere became quieter.

When eating Mu Yue’s food, only newcomers would chat. Acquaintances knew to talk less and eat more. It would be a waste to eat less just to say a few words.

"It feels comfortable." Jiraiya expressed his feelings after finishing his meal.

Although Mu Yue has to leave tomorrow, he is happy at this moment.

Everyone around had a look of approval on their faces.

"You've made such a great contribution this time. The new issue of Konoha Newspaper will definitely have you as the protagonist. Now you've truly become the number one person of the new generation in Konoha." Jiraiya said while picking his teeth.

Minato Namikaze appeared in many Konoha newspapers, but usually as a supporting role.

As soon as the latest issue of Konoha News is released, Mu Yue's popularity will definitely surpass that of Minato Namikaze.

By then, the remarks like "the two strongest people in Konoha in the new era" will disappear. There will be no Nan Muyue and Bei Shuimen. Muyue will become the strongest of the new generation without a doubt.

Of course, if Minato also wins a big victory in a short period of time and defeats a famous and powerful ninja, the wind direction will change back.

But from a practical point of view, it is difficult to achieve.

"It's just a meaningless reputation." Mu Yue shook her head slightly.

He really didn't care about any of that, having a reputation as famous as Minato was actually enough, and having a higher reputation wouldn't do him much good.

After all, Mu Yue doesn’t have the dream of becoming a Hokage.

If he was in the Konoha prosperity system, it would be necessary for him to become the Hokage and hold greater power, but for him, who is the owner of a teacher system, becoming the Hokage would be purely asking for trouble.

After all, Mu Yue is a time traveler, and a time traveler who has only traveled through time for more than three years.

Mu Yue doesn't care about Konoha itself. There are many reasons why he goes to the battlefield, but fighting purely to protect Konoha is not one of them.

Compared to the power of Konoha, Mu Yue cares more about the people in Konoha, those who are familiar to him.

Students who affectionately call him teacher, disciples who trust him, and friends who help each other.

"It's not that they are meaningless. These are still very useful for becoming Hokage." Jiraiya explained.

Konoha selects Hokage based on seniority, but if one's reputation and contribution are high enough, then seniority or other restrictions can be ignored to a certain extent.

In other words, Mu Yue is not a true descendant of Hokage, and has no master-disciple relationship with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya.

Otherwise, with Mu Yue's current momentum, as long as he has an idea, he can almost secure a position as a Hokage, either the Fifth or the Fourth.

"So Minato, you have to work harder, otherwise you may not be able to compete with Mu Yue for the Fifth Hokage in the future." Jiraiya looked at Minato Namikaze and encouraged him.

Jiraiya knew that Minato Namikaze had been working hard to become Hokage.

"Well, although Mu Yue is very outstanding, I will not give up." Namikaze Minato nodded seriously.

He admitted that he was not as good as Mu Yue now, both in strength and in the ability to lead the ninja troops in combat.

However, Minato Namikaze is not someone who will give up easily. Just because he is not as good as Mu Yue now does not mean he will not be as good in the future.

If he still can't win after trying his best, Minato Namikaze will accept it.

It is always more comfortable to lose honorably after trying hard than to regret not trying hard enough after losing.

Obito scratched his hair, feeling a little complicated.

According to the information given by Future Yamato and Naruto, Namikaze Minato became the Hokage, and not the Fifth Hokage, but the Fourth Hokage.

If they succeeded in changing the future and Mu Yue did not die, would it result in Minato Namikaze not being able to compete with Mu Yue and become the Fourth Hokage?

Obito had no doubt that Minato Namikaze would lose to Mugetsu.

After all, no matter how powerful Minato Namikaze is, he is still a mortal, and his opponent is the omnipotent Immortal Mu Yue.

"For the sake of Mu Yue-sensei, Minato-sensei will have to suffer." Obito thought with a little regret in his heart.
