After carefully studying the information given to him by the Three Generations, Hyōjin's face gradually sank.
There is no doubt that the Mist Village is no different from a powder keg at this time. No matter who it is, as long as a little spark is thrown into it, it will immediately ignite a monstrous fire.
Hyōjin thinks that with his current strength, sneaking into the Mist Village to gather information is not a difficult task, but if he brings the newly formed Team-7 with him, it will be hard to say.
Although Kurenai, Hayashi, and Suiyan are the best of the new generation in the village, but after all, they only have the strength of a Tokubetsu Jonin. Once their whereabouts are exposed in the Mist Village, it will be very difficult for them to escape the siege of the Mist Ninjas.
"The Three Generations really gave me a difficult problem!"
After putting away the document bag, Hyōjin sighed softly.
Early the next morning, the newly formed Class 7 gathered in a training field.
Hyōjin's eyes swept from Kurenai, Hayashi, and Suiyan one by one, and immediately said, "Naruto Sama assigned a task to our Team-7, but this task is very difficult, so before carrying out the task, I need to conduct an assessment on you."
Kurenai asked anxiously, "What task?"
Hayashi and Suiyan asked in unison, "What assessment?"
"We will talk about the task later, today we will conduct the assessment." After a pause, Hyōjin slowly said, "The content of the assessment is very simple, the three of you join forces to fight against me, I want to see your true strength!"
Kurenai snorted lightly, "Humph, even if you are stronger than me, it is impossible for you to fight against the three of us, right?"
"Ahem …" After coughing twice, Hayashi also said, "Captain, this kind of competition is not fair to you!"
Suiyan put her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, "You underestimate us too much, we are all qualified Anbu ninjas!"
Hyōjin glanced at them and said lightly, "You know nothing about power, it seems that it is necessary to wake you up."
In the Great Shinobi Village, the young shinobi of the Noble Shinobi Clan or Secret Technique Family often have a kind of self-confidence.
In the original timeline, Hong knew that the Uchiha Clan was proficient in illusions, and Itachi was an S-class wanted criminal who wiped out the entire clan, but she still chose to duel with Itachi in illusions. After discovering the conspiracy of Sand Crypsis and Orochi Maru, Hayate did not decisively choose to retreat and report the information, but after being exposed, he chose to confront the elite Jonin of Sand Crypsis head-on, and as a result, he lost his life in his village.
Confidence and arrogance were only separated by a single thought.
In order for these guys to be more disciplined when carrying out missions in the future, Hyōjin had to let them understand that there was always someone better out there.
Seeing that Kuroto didn't change his mind and insisted on fighting the three of them alone, Kurenai, Kage, and Xiyan didn't say anything and immediately retreated in a fan-shaped formation, each of them occupied an advantageous position and surrounded Kuroto in the center.
At this time, the three of them all had an eager expression on their faces.
Red's gorgeous eyes stared at Hyōjin. Her previous defeat has always been on her mind. Even in her dreams, she wants to defeat Hyōjin once and restore the prestige of the Shimura Clan's Genjutsu.
Gale and Xiyan both drew their swords and took the stance of Muye Flow Sword Technique.
Both of them are extremely talented in swordsmanship, and they have mastered many high-level sword techniques at a young age. Moreover, the two of them are childhood sweethearts and have been practicing together since childhood. Their cooperation with each other is extremely tacit, and the two of them can exert the power of one plus one is greater than two.
"You must have the determination to kill me, don't hesitate, I don't have time to play with you!"
Hyōjin stood quietly in the same place, his expression was calm, and his tone was flat.
The three of them looked at each other when they heard Kuroto's words, and a touch of anger appeared on their faces.
Red said angrily, "Alright, anyway, Lady Tsunade is also in the village. Even if you are injured by us, you won't die so easily, right?"
The corners of Hyōjin's lips curled up slightly, forming an arc. "If you can really injure me, I'll give you the position of leader."
After being provoked by Hyōjin, Red immediately replied, "Alright!"
After saying that, Red pounced towards Hyōjin, took out a few kunai from the storage bag at her waist, and threw them at Hyōjin.
At the same time, Gale and Xiyan leaped up high and shouted in unison, "Dance of the Three Suns and Moons!"
In an instant, a few afterimages appeared on their bodies, as if they were clones. One was divided into three, and the two of them transformed into six figures, slashing at Hyōjin from different directions and angles.
With just a glance, Hyōjin could tell that the Muye Flow Sword Technique that Gale and Xiyan used was a kind of ninja technique that contained ninjutsu. There was no distinction between real and fake. No matter which of the six figures hit him, he would be injured all the same.
However, the two's swordsmanship was still not beyond the scope of sword attack, and it could be blocked by hard objects. In the original space-time, the elite Superior Ninja Maki of the Sand Crypsis had forcefully resisted Gale's sword, and then easily killed Gale.
Swish …
Naturally, Hyōjin would not resist forcefully. He immediately performed the teleportation technique, and in the sharp sound of wind breaking, he disappeared into thin air.
Red was shocked. "This …"
"So fast!"
Gale and Xiyan, who had missed their attacks, were also shocked when they landed.
At this moment, Hyōjin's figure flashed, and he appeared behind Gale. He held a short sword in a reverse grip, and with the back of the short sword, he slashed at the back of Gale's neck.
Xiyan, who was at the side, was shocked. She could not care less, and quickly swung her sword at Hyōjin, wanting to save Gale.
Bang …
With a flash of sword light, Hyōjin's figure, which was penetrated by the sword light, exploded into a cloud of white smoke.
"Shadow Clone!? Oh no … "
Just as this thought appeared in her mind, Xiyan's vision went black, and she was knocked out from behind.
At this moment, Red and Gale finally reacted, and they retreated in a flustered manner.
They had originally planned to use Red as bait to lure Hyōjin to attack, and then Gale and Xiyan would join forces to perform the Muye Flow Sword Technique to defeat Hyōjin in one blow. However, they did not expect that not only did Hyōjin not fall for the trick, but he also pretended to attack Gale, causing Xiyan to reveal an opening. In front of the two of them, he easily subdued Xiyan, who was not weak.
Red reminded Gale with a serious expression, "Be careful, his teleportation technique is very fast!"
Swish …
Before she finished speaking, Red felt darkness in front of her, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
As a qualified Tokubetsu Ninja, she instinctively wanted to retreat, but before her body could react, she was hit by several palms. The meridians in her body were blocked by Chakra, and she instantly lost the ability to refine and use Chakra.
At this moment, a long sword struck, slashing at the figure who had attacked Red.
The person holding the sword was naturally Gale. The angle of his long sword was very tricky, and it was extremely fast. As long as the figure hesitated for a moment, the long sword would definitely hit him.
However, in the face of the sudden longsword, the figure only took half a step back. As if he had foresight, he narrowly dodged the longsword that was slashing at him. Then, he turned around and sent Gale flying with a kick.
Clapping his hands, Hyōjin said emotionlessly, "You have failed the test, and I am very disappointed with your performance. We will continue the test tomorrow, and I hope you can perform a little better."
After saying this, Hyōjin's figure flashed, and he disappeared from the training field.
Red and Gale, who had fallen to the ground, looked at each other, and saw shock and shame in each other's eyes.
There is no doubt that Kurenai, Gale, and Xiyan didn't show their full strength, especially Kurenai, because her Genjutsu was restrained by Suijin, she didn't have much to show and was easily defeated.
Bang …
Red punched the ground heavily, and said unwillingly, "Damn it, why didn't the gap between me and him shrink? Instead, it's getting bigger!"
Gale stood up and said, "Ahem … Captain's strength is more powerful than we thought. It seems that we have to study our tactics, or else tomorrow's test …"
…
After leaving the training field, Hyōjin did not stop to rest. He activated his teleportation technique and rushed to an izakaya in the village.
Arriving at a single room on the second floor, Hyōjin smiled, "You're here so early. I'm not late, am I?"
In the single room, a female ninja with short black hair stood up and said, "Why did you ask me out? I have a lot of things to do!"
This female ninja with short black hair was Hyōjin's contemporaries and also the disciple of Tsunade, Mute.
Hyōjin and Tsunade had nothing to do with each other, so he had to ask Tsunade's disciple, Mute, out first. He wanted to test Tsunade's attitude through Mute and see if Tsunade was willing to accept her as a disciple.
After sitting down, Hyōjin immediately said, "We are contemporaries. Do I need any reason to ask you out?"
Mute stared at Hyōjin suspiciously. "You don't like to talk to people in the ninja school. Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden? Tell me, you must have something to ask of me."
Hyōjin smiled, "You are indeed the disciple of Tsunade. I do have something to ask of you."
"What is it?"
Kuroto said, "Yui wants to become a disciple of Tsunade -sama and learn medical ninjutsu, but I don't know if Tsunade -sama has any plans to accept apprentices in the near future, so I want to ask you."
"Ling …" After thinking for a moment, Mute said, "I'm afraid Ling will be disappointed. Tsunade has no plans to accept disciples. Although she has returned to the village, she doesn't want to manage the affairs of the village at all."
Hyōjin's face darkened. "Is there no way at all?"
Mute shook his head. "No one can force Tsunade to do something she doesn't want."
Kuroto said indifferently, "Even if it is Tsunade -sama, there will always be things she wants or things she wants to do but can't do, right?"
Mute smiled and said, "If even Tsunade can't do it, what can you do?"
Hyōjin stretched out his finger and shook it in front of Mute. "Just because Tsunade can't do it doesn't mean that the Hyuga Clan can't do it. I heard that Tsunade owes a lot of debts outside!"
Mute waved his hand again and again. "You … you … don't talk nonsense. How can Tsunade owe debts?"
Seeing Mute like this, Hyōjin's face darkened. "Hey, Tsunade didn't really return to the village to avoid debts this time, did she?"
"Haha …" After laughing awkwardly, Mute said, "You really like to joke more and more. Tsunade is a famous Sanin in the ninja world. Avoiding debts? That's impossible! "
Hyōjin rubbed his chin and murmured, "Is the legend of Fat Sheep true?"
Mute said helplessly, "Okay, okay, I'll help you ask, but Medical Ninjutsu is not so easy to learn. I've been with Tsunade -sama for so many years, but I've only learned a little bit."
Mute is telling the truth. In terms of learning difficulty, Medical Ninjutsu is on the same level as Sealing Jutsu.
And the most important thing is that Medical Ninjutsu is very demanding on the control of Chakra. It requires at least the control of Jonin level Chakra.
Although Mute is Tsunade's first disciple, compared to Haruno Chakra who has better control of Chakra, Mute didn't learn much from Tsunade. For example, Yin Seal and Monstrous Strength, which are Tsunade's specialty. On the contrary, Sakura, who became Tsunade's disciple later, has mastered all of them.
Although this is due to personality, it's more because Mute's control of Chakra is obviously inferior to Sakura.
Hyōjin doesn't want Yue to only learn a little bit from Tsunade, so he tapped his fingers on the table and whispered, "Name a price?"
Mute asked, "What?"
Hyōjin said, "Yue has the Byakugan Kekkei Limit. Her talent may not be excellent, but she can see through the meridians of the human body. She can constantly correct mistakes in the control of Chakra, so I believe that as long as she is willing to work hard, the problem of talent should not be an obstacle. But I don't want her to only learn a little bit from Tsunade -sama. She can also learn a little bit of Medical Ninjutsu in the medical class, so name a price! "
Mute asked curiously, "Is your Hyuga family very rich?"
Hyōjin leaned on the sofa and asked, "Is the Hyuga family rich?! How can you ask such a stupid question? You can go outside and ask about the price of a Byakugan in the black market! "
Hyōjin is naturally talking nonsense, but it is also a fact that Byakugan is priceless in the black market.
Mute secretly took out a small book. While he was carrying Hyōjin, he wrote and drew in the small book as if he was calculating something.
Hyōjin glanced at the small book in Mute's hand and thought to himself, Is this an account book used to record debts? How much money does Tsunade owe outside? Does she need such a thick book to record debts?
Looking at Mute's posture, Hyōjin was already convinced that Tsunade came back this time to avoid debts. Moreover, it was said that it was Jiraiya who persuaded Tsunade to come back this time, so Hyōjin suspected that Jiraiya's method of persuading Tsunade to come back might also be related to money.
Hyōjin was secretly delighted. It seems that as long as I take the right medicine, it won't be as difficult as I thought …
