Konoha's Clow Magician

A month later, outside the Konoha Martial Arts Competition.

"Shu, hurry up. The game will start in half an hour. If you don't hurry up, what if it's your turn in the first game."

Listening to the deafening sound next to him, Senju Hideki looked tired, covered his mouth and yawned, and said nonchalantly, "Isn't there still half an hour left? Kai, you have the wrong mentality. You will arrive early and arrive late." What difference does it make, strength is the most important thing, not to mention the protagonist is always the last one to appear."

Although he said that, he didn't arrive late on purpose, he was really tired.

The battle in the Country of Grass exposed two of his own flaws, chakra capacity and physical skills.

The amount of chakra of ordinary ninjas usually increases naturally as their bodies mature, but Hideki Senju is different. His maximum amount of chakra is determined by the number of fused cards.

This gives him a great advantage, but also limits him.

By merging water cards and flower cards before, his chakra size expanded from a first-time chuunin to even more than an ordinary special jounin.

It was as if the money he had saved for a long time was withdrawn all at once, and the money was not a one-time use, it directly raised the upper limit of the money he could automatically recover.

He still has sixteen cards like this. God knows to what extent the chakra will increase after the fusion. I'm afraid he can go to the moon and stand side by side with Princess Kaguya.

Of course, this way of saving money is not without its drawbacks, and you have to deposit it fully before you can withdraw it.

Senju Hideki had planned to continue activating the light card. If he guessed correctly, the light card corresponds to the Yang Escape attribute of the ninja world.

After obtaining Yang Escape, the immortal human body inherited from Asura by the Thousand Hands clan may be able to fully awaken in him.

Unlike now, it was just a small hole in the abdomen and almost burped. It was really embarrassing for the Thousand Hands clan.

The chakra required to activate the light card is still above the element card. He roughly estimated that it would take almost two years to save enough chakra.

In other words, if the plan remains unchanged, in the two years since the light card was activated, his chakra amount can only be maintained at the level of a special jounin.

During this period, no matter how powerful the ninjutsu he mastered, he could only shoot a few times and be empty of blue like in the previous battle.

What's the difference between this and Kakashi? Even because of his physical skills and less combat awareness, his combat power is not as good as Kakashi's.

Therefore, he temporarily gave up on activating light cards, and instead turned to cards that may have a smaller increase in strength, but can be activated as quickly as possible to increase the upper limit of chakra.

The improvement of physical skills cannot be achieved overnight. He can only try his best to accumulate experience by competing with physical skills masters like Kai.

……

After entering the venue, the venue was filled with people and the sky was filled with excitement.

This special Jonin test can be regarded as an unprecedented event in Konoha.

There are as many as 300 ninjas who sign up for the special Jonin selection, and a separate area in the auditorium is even needed for the players to rest.

When Senju Hideki and the others arrived, the contestants' bench was almost full of people.

After a rough glance, the composition of the ninjas participating in the selection this time is also a bit complicated. There are civilian ninjas, such as Shiranui Genma, Mizudashi, Yamashiro Aoba, etc., as well as secret ninjas like the Aburame clan, Akimichi clan, and Nara clan. The martial arts family, even the two major blood-stained pupil martial arts masters...

what happened?Senju Hideki frowned. He did see a few ninjas from the Hyuga family, but he didn't see any ninjas wearing fan costumes from the Uchiha clan.

The Uchiha clan has always been the backbone of Konoha, and this generation has an Uchiha Shisui, who was promoted to special jounin early due to his military exploits.

Even if the Uchiha clan was suspected of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, how could they be excluded in such a fair and just way? Three generations of old people were confused.

Or maybe it was the Uchiha chuunin who was angry because of the rumors in the village and spontaneously refused to participate in the special jounin assessment.

It would be interesting if it were the latter.

What should I say about doing such a thankless thing? He is worthy of being an Uchiha!

The more Senju Hideki thought about it, the more he felt that the latter resembled Uchiha's style of painting, arrogant and awkward...

At this time, a cry interrupted his thinking.

"Kai, Shu, this way, this way." Sarutobi Asuma shouted loudly, "Why did you come here this time...Wow, Shu, why are the dark circles under your eyes so heavy."

After hearing Asuma's words, the people around him such as Kurenai, Genma, Hayate, etc. also looked over. It was obvious that they were also very interested in this matter.

Ignoring the eyes of everyone around him, Senju Hideki said calmly, "This is not a dark circle, it is a symbol of hard work."

"What a symbol of hard work." Asuma murmured in a low voice, "Hayate also has such big dark circles, but we all know that he has a fiancée, so what do you mean, oh... I remembered, your last mission After saving a woman, could it be that..."

Moonlight Hayate next to him turned pale when he heard this. Senju Hideki also wanted to blow Asuma's head off on the spot, and smiled sinisterly, "Asuma, pray now, and pray that you will win the exam. Don’t let me meet you.”

Asuma smiled and said confidently, "It's you who should pray, Shu. You don't know my strength yet."

There is a saying that Asuma is so arrogant, and it is not just because his father is the third Hokage that he can survive to this day.

Senju Hideki shook his head, stopped talking to him, and fell asleep against his seat.

Seeing that Senju Hideki didn't reply, Asuma glanced around and felt even more proud.

Not long after, Sandai appeared with the cheers of the crowd on the field.

Since this was the first time a special jounin assessment was held in public, and there were many spectators unfamiliar with the selection method, the third generation explained the rules of the assessment in detail.

Different from previous assessments, the comprehensive strength of ninjas is valued. As long as they have specialties that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve in a certain aspect, they may pass the assessment. For example, Morino Hihi is not strong in combat, but in the last assessment, she relied on her Only through torture can one be promoted to special jounin.

There is only one requirement for the selection of special jonin in this assessment, and that is combat prowess. As long as you show strong enough combat prowess in battle, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to a special jounin.

The rules of the assessment were random drawing of lots. Perhaps Asuma was causing trouble. Senju Hideki's opponent in the first round was Gekko Hayate.

Field No. 4.

Senju Hideki looked at the young man in a fighting posture in front of him, and all the information about Moonlight Hayate came to mind - he was good at Konoha swordsmanship, strong in physical skills but weak in constitution.

Are you weak...?

Senju Hideki glanced at the opponent's eyes inadvertently and chuckled, "Hayate, take action. Let me see the secret of your Konoha-style swordsmanship."

Moonlight Hayate seemed to feel Senju Hideki's contempt, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes, he pulled out the sword with his left hand, formed a seal with his right hand, and rushed towards Senju Hideki.
