Maples held Kakashi's fist and chuckled, saying: "You've grown taller in just a few months … Is this the effect of Cell Activation Technique?"
Although he only used Four Times Speed and didn't open the Hachimon Tonkou, Kakashi was barely able to react, indicating that Kakashi's current strength has gradually surpassed the Chunin category.
Under normal circumstances, Kakashi would become a Jonin at the age of 12.
But now, with the guidance of his brother, Maples, he has practiced Cell Activation Technique and Chidori from Maples. It can be said that he almost has the strength of a Jonin, but his combat experience and other aspects are still not up to the standard of a Jonin.
"Maybe."
Kakashi tilted his head, showing no vitality in his eyes, and said: "But the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger."
It seems that he dodged Maples' attack, but in fact, it was an attack launched by Maples from a distance, and he had the time to react.
And the most important thing is that Maples killed a large number of Jonins in the battlefield of the Kusanagi Country, and there is a qualitative difference between their strength.
"You're growing, and I'm also practicing. It's not easy to be on par with me." Maples released Kakashi's fist and laughed.
Not far away.
Namikaze Minato looked at Feng Ye with slight surprise.
Although Maples didn't use Hachimon Tonkou, his speed was indeed a bit amazing. No wonder he could kill so many people in the battlefield of the Kusanagi Country.
"…"
Belt Soil was a bit unhappy.
Originally, he came out to carry out the mission and suddenly encountered an accident. He wanted to show off his skills, but he suddenly encountered Maples, and the attention of the whole audience was focused on Maples.
He walked towards the two corpses of the Sand Ninjas, and after a little inspection, he was a little surprised: "Looking at the traces of Chakra, they should be Jonins of the Sand Village. Did you kill them all in an instant, Minato-sensei?"
From the time they noticed the battle, to the time Minato used Body Flicker Jutsu to check it out, and then to the time they rushed over, the interval was at most ten seconds.
To be able to deal with two Jonins in such a short period of time, although as a disciple of Namikaze Minato, he was already somewhat familiar with the strength of this sensei, but he was still somewhat amazed.
"No."
Minato shook his head and said: "I didn't do it …"
At this point, he turned to look at Feng Ye.
With only a few Genin with him, it shouldn't be easy for him to deal with two Sand Jonins. Moreover, from the time he heard the commotion to the time he arrived, plus the fact that Maples arrived earlier than him, it should be the work of Maples.
To be able to deal with two Sand Jonins, Maples's strength is really outstanding, and looking at the traces left behind, if it was as he guessed, the battle ended in an instant, then Maples's strength is on another level.
Of course.
Such strength wasn't enough to move him, because he could do the same. What really moved him was that Maples was much younger than him, and at this age, he was far from reaching his peak.
"It was really incredible, Maples, what was that Jutsu you used?" Kurenai looked at Maples and couldn't help but ask.
Maples smiled and said: "Are you talking about that state? It should be a secret Jutsu that combines Lightning Release and Taijutsu. I call it Hachimon Lightning Release. "
Having said that, he couldn't help but glance at Minato.
Hachimon Lightning Release was something he came up with on the spot, in case Minato saw it and suddenly called it Silver Flash Super Roar Dance Style.
The Belt Soil was a little stiff at this time.
They didn't expect that the two Sand Jonins were killed by Maples. Minato arrived a little late, and he obviously wanted to divert everyone's attention.
They didn't continue to chat here, and after dealing with the corpses and cutting off the heads and sealing them in scrolls, the group returned to Konoha's camp together.
While walking, Kurenai asked Maples: "Hokage-sama sent you here, does that mean you'll be working with us from now on?"
"I'm not sure."
Maples shook his head and said: "It depends on Hokage-sama's orders and Jiraiya -sama's command, but it's more likely that I'll be acting alone."
Speaking of this, Maple looked at Minato's direction, and Minato also looked at him. The two men's eyes met in the void for a moment, and then they both retracted their gazes.
Minato showed a smile.
From Konoha's point of view, Maples coming to this battlefield was a good thing for the overall war situation. After all, Maples' achievements in the battlefield of the Kusanagi Country were enough to prove his strength.
As for Maples, as Orochimaru's disciple, coming to this battlefield gave him a feeling of competition, but he didn't care much.
If he was on the battlefield of the Kusanagi Country, he believed that he could do better with the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
And his goal was to become the Hokage.
Those who had the qualifications to become the Hokage were his targets, such as Orochimaru, Tsunade, and others. Maples was only a competitor of the next generation, so he didn't need to care too much.
… …
Two hours later.
Maples, Minato, and the others returned to Konoha's frontline camp, and together they went to the largest tent in the center of the camp, and reported to the commander Jiraiya here.
"… Got it, I'll leave the matter of obtaining information to Inoichi."
After listening to their description, Jiraiya nodded and took the scroll with the Sand Jonin's head sealed in it from Kurenai Shinku's hand.
Then he looked at Maples.
Maples was Orochimaru's disciple, he was his nephew, but the relationship between him and Orochimaru was not only companions, but also competitors. Now that Sarutobi sent Maples to this battlefield, he felt a little helpless.
Originally, Orochimaru and Maples solved the battle of the Kusanagi Country, and he and Minato solved the battle of the Kusanagi Country.
But now that Maples was sent to this battlefield, it gave him a feeling that he and Minato weren't good enough, and they needed Orochimaru to send a disciple to help.
There was something strange about it.
But it was impossible to stop it now.
Because Maples had already interfered in this battlefield … When the news of Maples destroying the Sand Ninja Army reached him, he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
If the other side really carried out the plan and attacked the rear camp, even if Konoha didn't collapse, they would suffer heavy losses!
But what shocked him the most was that.
Maple had single-handedly taken care of nearly a hundred Sand Ninjas!
