Chapter 648

After learning that Anko was Orochimaru's disciple, Kakashi lost interest.

After reporting to Maple about the situation in Lou Lan, he returned to his room by himself. However, he purposely described the situation to Lin so that she understood that the relationship between Maple and the Queen of Lou Lan wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface.

And so …

For the next few days, all the housework became Kakashi's responsibility.

"In that case …"

"In the future, if you have any questions, you can come here and ask me."

After Kakashi left, Maple continued to speak to Anko, "However, there are a few requirements for you to follow me in cultivation. First, you have to control your diet. You're not allowed to eat snacks …"

Anko widened her eyes and said, "Eh?! Why? "

[Of course, it's because you don't pay attention to your diet. In the future, you'll become a Mitarai Peanut.]

Maple inwardly ridiculed her, but on the surface, he said calmly, "Because eating too many snacks will be a burden on the body's growth. An excellent ninja must have a regular diet."

"This …"

Anko hesitated for a while.

Maple glanced at her and said, "What's the matter? Is it very difficult?! "

"No, it's not difficult!"

Anko hurriedly shook her head, frightened by Maple's imposing manner.

Seeing Anko's expression as if she had lost something, Lin couldn't help but smile sweetly and said, "It's indeed not good to eat too many snacks. Listening to Maple is the right choice."

"Got it …"

Anko lowered her head and said dejectedly.

In her heart, she was thinking that it shouldn't be a problem to secretly eat some snacks.

In the end, she heard Maple speak in a flat tone, "If I catch you secretly eating snacks, that will be disobeying my orders, and you will be punished."

While saying that.

Maple snapped his fingers, causing chakra to explode on his fingertips with a cracking sound, just like the sound of a whip striking the air.

* Gulp! *

Anko couldn't help but gulp as she looked at Maple with a bit of fear. She had the feeling that Maple was much stricter than Orochimaru.

"Secondly, you have to keep a regular schedule."

Maple took a sip of tea and said, "Next, I will apply to transfer you to Kakashi's Squad, and you will temporarily follow Kakashi to carry out missions. During the mission period, you can change your schedule according to the mission, and during the non-mission period, you will come here at 1 PM every day to train."

"That's too tiring … I don't want it."

Anko's face collapsed, and she collapsed on the table, as if she had lost her dream.

Maple smiled lightly, and said, "Tiring? How can you become stronger if you don't work hard? With your current strength, you can't even defeat a five-year-old child. "

"Impossible!"

Anko immediately retorted.

She knew that she wasn't strong, and there was a huge gap between her and the current Maple, but it was absolutely impossible for her to lose to a five-year-old child.

"You don't believe me?"

Maple smiled faintly, and said, "Then come with me."

Saying so, Feng Ye stood up and walked outside.

Anko puffed up her cheeks. She would admit that Maple was stronger than her, and she could also admit that Lin was stronger than her. However, saying that a five-year-old child was stronger than her was simply nonsense.

A moment later.

Maple led Anko around two small courtyards, and arrived at a spacious backyard.

"Sensei."

Uchiha Itachi, who was cultivating in the small courtyard, stopped what he was doing and lightly gasped for breath. He immediately bowed to Maple who walked in.

Maple smiled faintly, and said, "While I was away, you didn't slack off in your cultivation, did you?"

Itachi said with a serious expression, "I've been cultivating according to Sensei's plan."

"Good, then let me see the results of your cultivation."

Maple nodded, and looked at Anko, who was beside him, and said, "He's my disciple, Itachi. He's currently five years old, and if you can defeat him, then you can decide how long he cultivates from now on."

"Really?!"

Anko revealed an expression that said, "Don't joke around."

Feng Ye calmly replied, "Really."

"That's good then …"

Anko grinned, took out a kunai, and flicked it twice with her fingertips. She walked in front of Itachi, and said, "Are you Senior Brother Maple's disciple? I'm a generation older than you, so I'll let you make the first move. "

Itachi turned to look at Maple.

Maple walked over and placed his finger on Kuroto's body, and a wisp of chakra rippled out, clearing away the fatigue from his previous cultivation. Maple nodded at Kuroto, and said, "Use your full strength, with me here, there's no need to hold back, don't lose."

"Yes."

Itachi respectfully responded, and then looked at Anko again, his eyes had calmed down.

Maple walked to the side, sat down, and leisurely looked at the two people in the field.

Five years old Uchiha Itachi.

Ten years old Mitarashi Anko.

In fact, although Itachi already has the strength of a Genin, but in terms of strength, agility, and chakra, he should be weaker than Anko, who is five years older than him.

But Maple believes that Itachi has a higher chance of winning.

There's no other reason.

Just because he is Uchiha Itachi.

Wouch! Wouch!

After staring at Anko for a few seconds, Itachi suddenly moved, he threw a Shuriken, and the Shuriken accurately blocked all directions of Anko.

Seeing this scene, Anko's expression changed slightly. This was because even if she threw the shuriken with such speed and accuracy, it would be very difficult for her to throw it.

Wouch!

Without hesitation, she retreated, and the Kunai in her hand flew up and down, blocking part of the Shuriken, and the rest was dodged.

And in the next moment, Itachi rushed towards her, and the Kunai in his hand directly stabbed towards her.

"Close combat …"

Anko showed a confident smile, and held the Kunai in her hand.

Ding Ding Dong Dong!

The two fought for a while, and sparks constantly burst between the Kunai.

After fighting for about a minute, Uchiha Itachi jumped back and landed not far away.

"What's wrong, are you out of strength? I'm still far from it. "

The corner of Anko's mouth slightly raised.

But Itachi looked at her calmly.

"You have already lost."

"Huh?"

Anko was slightly startled, and then suddenly found that several detonation talismans fell on the ground around her, and one of them was right under her feet.

When?!

Anko showed a trace of shock.

Maple stood up, clapped his hands, looked at Itachi, and said with a trace of praise: "Very good, continue training."

"Yes, Sensei."

Itachi replied respectfully and continued to the place where he previously trained.

Anko was still looking at the detonation talisman under her feet in a daze. She recalled every move she made during the close combat battle with Itachi, and there seemed to be some problems with it.

Wouch!

Feng Ye walked over, and his finger fell down with an arc of light. The detonation talisman stuck to the soles of her feet was instantly cut off by the arc of light.

"Let's go."

Anko followed Maple, unable to accept it.

Anko followed Maple, unable to accept it.

"What, you're still a little unconvinced?"

Maple looked at Anko and smiled.

Anko puffed up her cheeks and said: "I... I was careless just now!"

Maple said calmly: "In a real battle, a single moment of carelessness will cost you your life. Being careless means that you're not strong enough.

"How about this, I'll give you one more chance. I'll only use a single finger of my left hand, and neither my body nor my right hand will move. As long as you can take this shuriken away from me, I'll consider it your victory. How about it?"

Maple said as he placed a shuriken in the palm of his right hand.

"You said it yourself …"

When Anko heard Maple's words, she judged for a moment before revealing a smile.

* Whoosh! *

The next instant, her figure flashed, and she passed in front of Maple, reaching out to grab the shuriken in his hand.

Maple's expression was calm as his left index finger moved like a blur and instantly tapped on the center of her forehead, stopping her from taking the shuriken.

"Er … ah …"

Anko tilted her head backwards and bent her entire body, displaying the incredible flexibility of a young girl. At the same time, she hooked the little finger of her left hand towards the shuriken in Maple's hand.

Maple's index finger flickered and disappeared from her forehead. Instead, it landed on her waist and flicked upwards.

Anko's entire body was instantly sent flying upwards. She spun twice in the air before falling behind Maple and landing on her feet in a rather sorry state.

* Whoosh!! *

She was unwilling to give up and pounced on Maple from behind. She wrapped her arms around him and prepared to steal the shuriken in his hand from both sides.

Maple still didn't move. His left hand passed under her right armpit and tapped on the center of her chest. His fingertip pushed forward, and Anko was unable to move forward. She was sent flying backwards and landed several meters away.

"Isn't this speed a little abnormal …?"

Anko had an expression of having a headache, but her eyes immediately lit up and she said, "As long as I can force you to move, it counts as my victory."

As soon as she finished speaking, her hands rapidly formed hand seals.

Fire Release! Dragon Fire Technique!

* Hum! *

A scorching flame suddenly burst forth and attacked Feng Ye's back.

Maple's expression remained calm. He didn't even turn around. Instead, a flash of lightning appeared on the tip of his left hand's index finger, and he lightly flicked his finger.

* Chi!! *

A silver waterfall flew out and instantly tore through the flames, flying straight forward until it reached the Hokage Rock of Konoha and flew over it.

Anko stiffened in place and slowly turned her head to look. She saw that in the distance, on top of the Hokage Rock statue, a corner of Sandaime Hokage's hair was silently falling off.

It was falling down.

Her eyes widened.

With his back facing Konoha, he only flicked his finger lightly … This place was at least several dozen streets away from the Hokage Rock statue!

Just how strong did he have to be to be able to do such a thing!?

"Maple … Maple …"

Anko's imposing manner completely disappeared. She looked at Maple and weakly said, "That, the Hokage Rock …"

"Is it the statue of Sandaime Hokage? Don't worry about that. Do you still want to continue?"

Maple calmly said.

Anko: "…"

After feeling Maple's strength, she accepted her fate!
