Negative Master of Konoha

Chapter 194 "Youth" Worth Remembering (4000 words)
"Red beans, Iruka, you guys go out with me."

Xia Shu found Hongdou and Iruka who were chatting in the camp, and after bringing them to an open space outside the camp, he said to the two people who didn't know why: "I came here to test your strength. You put all your strength together and join forces to fight against me."

"Okay, just let you see my progress these days, it will definitely surprise you."

Hongdou said proudly, pretending to be casual, and suddenly launched a sneak attack with the hidden shadow snake hand, which kicked off the prelude to this test.

"Shh!"

Although the Hidden Shadow Snake Hand has strong binding power, the premise is to hit the target. Although Xia Shu didn't expect her to do this, with Xia Shu's strength, he still reacted immediately. With a stomp, he flew back and avoided the attack of the Hidden Shadow Snake Hand.

Although Hongdou launched a sneak attack, he also expected that this move might not produce the expected effect, so he continued to make seals without stopping at all, and at the same time shouted to Iruka behind him: "Iruka!"

"Understood! Look at me, the water escapes and the water flows!"

After cooperating with Hongdou for so long, Iruka has already understood her intentions, quickly formed seals with both hands, and a water whip wound towards Xia Shu.

After finally acquiring new ninjutsu, Iruka practiced hard every day. Until the last few days, he has been able to fully perform the two water escape ninjutsu of water whip and water dragon whip.

Natsuki knew the ninjutsu he taught Iruka like the back of his hand. When he saw the water whip coming, he didn't panic at all. He made mudras with his hands and stepped heavily on the ground with his right foot.

"Earth Dungeon Pumice Stone Charge!"

The land under Natsuki's feet split into many thin rock fragments. Under the control of ninjutsu, they were like pieces of flying knives. While chopping up the water whip, they also blocked the red beans that came rushing.

"Psychic rock python!"

Seeing that he couldn't get close to Xia Shu, Hongdou immediately bit his finger, formed a handprint and pressed it on the ground. After a puff of thick smoke, a rock python with skin color similar to that of a rock appeared in the field.

The eight-meter-long rock python hovered above the ground, let out a murderous roar, and bit Xia Shu with its bloody mouth, ready to swallow him into its belly.

"Not bad, Hongdou, I didn't expect you to be able to summon a psychic beast of this level."

Seeing the rock python with elite Chunin strength, Xia Shu's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he used Tulugui to resist the rock python. Before the stone slab shattered, he jumped out of the rock python's attack range and pressed his hands to the ground superior.

"Earth escape from Huangquan Swamp! Earth escape from the slate coffin!"

Under Xia Shu's control, the ground under the rock python's body turned into a soft and muddy swamp, causing its bulky body to sink continuously. Then, two huge stone walls rose up and smashed towards the rock python trying to struggle out. Trapped it in the swamp.

While Xia Shu was dealing with the rock python, Hongdou and Iruka were also making preparations, completing the seal at the same time, and immediately released it to Xia Shu.

"Water escape water dragon whip!"

"Secret Snake Cave!"

Several streams of water, like high-pressure water knives, rushed towards Xia Shu, plowing several deep ravines on the ground, splitting all objects blocking the path in two.

Xia Shu was about to evade, but suddenly his feet were empty, the ground below him collapsed, and he fell into the deep pit full of poisonous snakes below.

Xia Shu, who had no way to rely on his strength, dodged with a stand-in technique, and appeared in an open space not far away.

Seeing that the two were about to continue attacking him, Xia Shu, who already knew the strength of the two, stopped them immediately and shouted: "Okay, the test is over."

"Oh!"

After hearing Xia Shu's words, Hongdou released the psychic technique, walked to his side, and hummed unwillingly: "Why is it over, I still want to defeat you with the spiral pill you taught me."

"clatter!"

Xia Shu stretched out his hand and flicked her head, and said angrily: "Even if you use Helix Pill, you are not my opponent."

"Captain, what about me?"

Iruka came over and looked at Xia Shu expectantly, waiting for his answer.

Xia Shu was very pleased with Iruka's improvement, and pointed out his shortcomings: "Iruka, you performed very well, and you have mastered these two ninjutsu skills well, but the water dragon whip needs to be strengthened, and the speed needs to be faster , so that the enemy cannot escape."

"Yes, Captain, I will continue to work hard." After getting Xia Shu's approval, Iruka said energetically.

"Okay, you have passed my test, so I will tell you the reason for the test."

Xia Shuqing coughed, took out two application forms from his bosom, and explained: "After half a month, a Chunin exam will be held in the capital, do you want to take it?"

"Chunin Exam?!"

After hearing Natsuki's words, Hongdou's eyes lit up, and she immediately snatched an application form from Natsuki's hand, and said excitedly: "Great, the Chunin exam is finally held again, and I want to take it, so that I can Become a Chunin."

Natsuki has been promoted to the top ninja, but he has always been worried about the fact that he is still a low ninja, and often complains to everyone. Now that he has the opportunity to be promoted, he is naturally overjoyed.

"Iruka, what about you?" Natsuki asked Iruka holding the remaining form.

"I will also participate." Iruka took the application form, and then asked Xia Shu with some doubts: "Captain, why is the Chunin exam held in the capital?"

The excited red bean at the side also reacted, casting doubtful eyes on Xia Shu.

"This time is different from the past. The participants are all ninjas who have performed well on the battlefield. The purpose is to show the power of Konoha's new generation to the outside world and convey to the outside world the signal that Konoha is still strong. Therefore, the base is arranged in the capital."

The political significance of this Chunin exam is far greater than its own role. In order to better reflect the strength of Konoha, it is necessary to ensure the pass rate of the exam, so the difficulty of the exam will definitely be reduced. The participants are all Konoha ninjas, and naturally there is not much danger to their lives, so Natsuki recommended Iruka, who is of average strength, to participate.

The two are not idiots with low EQ, so they naturally understood the meaning of Xia Shu's words, and after looking at each other, the smiles on their faces became even brighter.

It was getting late, Xia Shu looked at the two people who were giggling and urged: "Okay, please fill it out quickly, and you have to hand it in later."

"Yes."

The two agreed, took out a pen and paper and quickly filled it out. After checking it was correct, it was immediately handed over to Xia Shu.

Holding the two application forms, Xia Shu returned to the camp and handed them over to the person in charge of hosting the Chunin Exam, recommending them to participate in the Chunin Exam in his own name.

After dealing with this matter, before Xia Shu had time to go back to the camp to rest, he found a ninja hurriedly running past him and plunged into the command post not far away.

Feeling a little strange, Natsuki immediately turned around and walked to the command post. After pushing the door and entering the command post, he found that Uchiha Fuqiu was talking with the ninja.

Uchiha Tomiga, who was sitting on the seat above, looked at him cautiously, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure? The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Mist Ninja have really come to the front line?"

The ninja who knelt on one knee to report the situation heard the words, nodded heavily, and replied in an unquestionable tone: "Yes, Lord Fuqiu, a patrol of 20 ninjas met them, except for the one who returned to report Except for one ninja, everyone else has died."

"I see, let's go."

After waving his hand to signal the ninja to retreat, Uchiha Tomigao's eyes became more and more gloomy. Looking at Natsuki who walked in, he asked, "Natsuki Natsuki, what are you doing here?"

"Master Fuqiu, I'm here to ask if there is any suitable task for me to perform."

Naturally, Xia Shu would not admit that he came to have a look out of curiosity, so he quickly found an excuse to cover up.

An elite jonin like Natsuki has the right to come to the command post to meet the person in charge, and in order to complete his achievements, Natsuki often came here to ask Uchiha Tomigaoka and Hyuga Nichizu if there were any S-level tasks. So Uchiha Fuqiu didn't doubt him, shook his head and said: "Not yet, if there is a task, I will send someone to inform you."

"Yes, then I'll go back first." Xia Shu bowed his hands, left the command post, and returned to his camp.

After closing the door, Natsuki sat on a chair, recalling the conversation between the ninja and Uchiha Tomioka just now.

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen... are finally here!"

Xia Shu scratched his head in annoyance, poured out a glass of spiritual liquid and drank it down, thinking about the difficult choice back then.

Thinking about it, Xia Shu suddenly recalled a past event.

……

It was a very ordinary evening, and Xia Shu followed Maitedai ​​to practice physical skills outside the village.

After a battle, Xia Shu collapsed on the ground exhausted, looked at Matt Dai who didn't even fluctuate in breath, and asked in puzzlement: "Mr. Dai, your real strength even exceeds that of Jonin. Why, you Why don’t you prove it to everyone by defeating a Jōnin? In this case, the village will definitely promote you to Jōnin, and no one will despise you anymore.”

"Hahaha, that kind of thing is completely unnecessary. Even if I am a ninja, I can do a lot for Konoha."

Matt Dai smiled heartily, his eyes were as bright as torches, amazingly bright, looking at the sunset in the sky, he said with emotion: "The real strong is not the ability to defeat others, but the ability to protect oneself until death." of things' of this belief."

"If one day, I bloom my 'youth' in order to protect the things I cherish, then Natsuki, you must not be sad because this is my way of ninja!"

……

Time is too long, and Xia Shu also forgot how he answered Matt Dai's words at that time, but at this moment, Xia Shu has already made a decision in his heart.

Wiping away the tears that overflowed his eyes at some point, Xia Shu finally showed a relaxed smile on his face. After drinking a few cups of spiritual liquid again, he gave up today's training and study plan and came to the barren mountain near the camp alone on the top of the hill.

Empty your mind, don't think about anything, don't do anything, just lie there, looking at the gradually dimming sky, looking at the stars on the night that don't know when to appear, watching the shooting stars that occasionally cross the night sky...

Looking at it, before I knew it, I had already fallen asleep.

Early the next morning, Natsuki returned to the camp full of energy, no longer thinking about this matter, and began a week of special assault training for Hongdou and Iruka.

Red Bean's special training is very simple, it is the exercise of chakra control.

The reason why she was asked to undergo such special training was because Natsuki was going to teach Hongdou the spiral shuriken as well. In this way, even in the future, she would be able to deal a fatal blow to enemies of the Jonin level .

As for Iruka, Natsuki did not teach him the new water escape, but continued to use ninjutsu to conduct actual combat training with him to enhance his ability to deal with ninjutsu-type ninjas.

After a week of high-intensity training, although the chakra control power of the red bean did not meet the requirements of the spiral shuriken, it also made the spiral pill cast more smoothly, and its power was increased by half compared to before.

In the battle with Natsuki, Iruka changed from passively responding at the beginning to now occasionally using some of Natsuki's ninjutsu effects to launch several counterattacks, and his vision has greatly improved , the progress is very obvious.

A week later, Hongdou and Iruka left with the other ninjas who participated in the Zhongnin test, and went to the capital of the country of fire to participate in the test.

After the two left, Xia Shu started a mission-practice-study-task cycle life without incident. Although he had not received S-level missions, the rewards for A-level missions had already made Xia Shu rich. stand up.

On this day, Xia Shu came back from a mission outside, and heard the news that Matt Dai used the seven ninja swords of the Wunin of the Eight Dunjia Formation to fight against seven ninjas in order to protect his son, and beheaded four of them.

Although he had already prepared, Xia Shu still felt very painful in his heart. No one can be ruthless than grass and trees. Xia Shu both respected and admired Maitedai ​​who taught him without reservation, and chose to respect his wishes and did not interfere. Him, let him bloom his 'youth'.

Although Maitedai ​​sacrificed, his way of life is the same as Konoha's will of fire, and it will be passed on from generation to generation.

Not only that, this incident also had a great impact on Mist Ninja.

As the most famous combination of Mist Ninja, Seven Ninja Blades have always been worshiped by ordinary Mist Ninja, and can be regarded as one of the symbols of Mist Ninja.

Under the blow of Matt Dai, the death and injury of seven ninja swordsmen of this generation caused a huge blow to the morale of Mist Ninja for a while, making Mist Ninja who could not achieve results on the battlefield They were shaken about whether the war could be won, and the senior management of Mist Ninja also began to discuss whether to end the war as soon as possible.

However, as the fourth generation of Mizukage, Kutachi Yakura, naturally couldn't be reconciled, took revenge on Konoha, and prepared to launch a large-scale battle, hoping to improve the situation.

However, before he had time to act, a ninja wearing a red cloud uniform with a black background quietly appeared in his room. In his blood-colored eyes, three hook jades twirled crazily.
