Under the hazy moonlight, the dark clouds that had been accumulating all day were finally no longer restrained. Heavy snow fell like dandruff, and in the blink of an eye, the Wood Leaf was covered with a layer of white.
In the backyard, Moonlight Haki held his sword in his right hand, his expression was cold and serious, his eyes were bright and sharp, his short hair and shoulders were covered with snow, but he was motionless looking at the figure five meters away.
Cold Wind was dragged out of the bedroom by his little brother, and he understood what he was going to face.
Prejudice is a big mountain.
If Cold Wind has always been a person with poor talent in the eyes of others, and suddenly one day he becomes a Jonin, has a huge amount of Chakra, and has mastered the Wood Leaf Sword Style, it is bound to arouse suspicion!
But if Cold Wind changes people's impression of him little by little, and let everyone recognize him as a 'hard-working genius', then the mountain of prejudice will naturally disappear.
If the prejudice disappears, then in the future, even if Cold Wind takes out Wood Release, Sharingan, Byakugan, and so on, people will think that it is the result of Cold Wind's hard work!
Of course, there is no lack of people in this world, and those who have different opinions can all be dissected for research.
Well, there is nothing wrong with it!
As for change, it will start from small things.
Cold Wind took out the kunai that Waterstop gave him and quietly looked at Moonlight Haki opposite him.
In the corridor, Moonlight Well, Moonlight Pine, Keiko, and Gale, four people stared at the two people. After a while … Moonlight Haki and Cold Wind turned into snowmen.
When his little brother couldn't help but complain, Cold Wind and Moonlight Haki finally made their move, and rushed at each other at the same time.
Whoosh!!
In the harsh sound of metal friction, Cold Wind's kunai and Moonlight Haki's sword tightly collided, and in an instant, sparks flew.
Cold Wind kicked Moonlight Haki's legs without saying anything.
Moonlight Haki's face didn't change, and he took out a kunai and wiped it three inches below Cold Wind's navel.
Cold Wind was shocked, and with the help of Moonlight Haki's sword rebounded back.
So ruthless!
Cold Wind's forehead overflowed with cold sweat.
Shameless!
Moonlight Smoke glared at Cold Wind with a pale face. His eyes became sharper and brighter.
After another half a minute of confrontation, the two of them charged at each other again.
Clang!
Amidst the crisp sound of metal clashing, the two figures were on the verge of exploding on the snowy ground. Then, they charged at each other again!
The snowflakes that were falling from the sky also changed their trajectories as the two figures moved horizontally and vertically, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right.
Keiko, who was in the corridor, was extremely nervous. With her eyesight, she could only vaguely see the two figures. She could not help but ask the old man beside her, "Uncle Inoue, Uncle Matsushita, how is it?"
"Hmm … How should I put this?" Moonlight Well looked at Cold Wind's figure in shock. For a moment, he did not know what to say.
Fortunately, there was still old man Matsushita beside him. He said, "Little Cold Wind's strength is a little beyond our expectations."
"Big brother, reflect on your mistakes!!"
Gale was yelling at the side.
Clang!
Amidst another ear-piercing sound of metal clashing, Moonlight Smoke did not intend to waste time with Cold Wind anymore.
She quietly formed a seal. "Body Flicker Technique!"
In the next instant, Moonlight Smoke's figure turned into a gust of wind and disappeared.
There was a suffocating sound of wind in the air. In the eyes of ordinary people, Keiko had already lost sight of Moonlight Smoke's figure. However, in the eyes of Moonlight Well and Moonlight Matsushita, they could capture Moonlight Smoke's movements.
Moonlight Matsushita's muscles tensed. Under the effect of the Body Flicker Technique, even the slightest mistake would be magnified due to the explosive speed. If Moonlight Smoke made a mistake, Moonlight Matsushita would have to stop her in advance.
However …
"What?"
"How is this possible?"
Cold Wind, who had been standing there just a moment ago, formed a seal with both hands and disappeared in an instant.
Clang!
Amidst the violent, dull, and ear-piercing sound of metal clashing, Cold Wind and Moonlight Smoke had exchanged positions.
"Body Flicker Technique, it's the Body Flicker Technique!"
Gale was so excited that he couldn't control himself. "Big brother needs to reflect on his mistakes!"
However, Moonlight Smoke didn't show any exaggerated expressions like 'The Moonlight Clan's Young Clan Leader has shown great talent' or 'I can't believe that the Moonlight Clan's Young Clan Leader who has been hiding for so many years is actually a legendary genius' just because Cold Wind used the Body Flicker Technique. She just silently turned around and continued to attack with the Body Flicker Technique!
What could Cold Wind do? He could only brace himself.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang! Cold Wind continued to use the Body Flicker Technique, and Chakra's consumption was increasing. On the other hand, Moonlight Smoke was getting stronger and stronger. Under the effect of the Body Flicker Technique, her sword gradually became slippery and tricky. When Cold Wind's kunai blocked her sword, he saw her sword cut through the kunai like a willow catkin. Amidst a series of sparks, the sword cut through Cold Wind's jacket as if it was light, leaving a hideous and ugly scratch. Cold Wind could even feel the piercing pain of the cold sword cutting through his skin.
"So strong …"
Cold Wind was helpless. His dynamic vision clearly captured the trajectory of Moonlight Smoke's sword, but his limbs were always a beat slower, and he couldn't keep up with Moonlight Smoke's movements.
This feeling, Cold Wind only felt when he fought Waterstop.
Moonlight Smoke graduated two years ago and was preparing to take the Chunin Exam. Waterstop, on the other hand, was still a second-year student. As expected of Waterstop!
Cold Wind was distracted, and Moonlight Smoke immediately seized the opportunity. With one blow, she knocked away Cold Wind's kunai and placed her sword on his neck.
In the next moment, Moonlight Smoke retracted her sword and retreated.
"I lost."
Cold Wind looked down at the scratch on his jacket, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why is Moonlight Smoke the same as Waterstop? They both like to scratch other people's clothes.
"Cold Wind, to be able to master the Body Flicker Technique at your age, you are a genius." Moonlight Smoke whispered.
"I prefer you to call me a hard-working genius!" Cold Wind corrected.
Moonlight Smoke smiled and didn't speak again.
"Little Smoke's swordsmanship is getting better and better." Moonlight Smoke stared at Cold Wind and praised.
"No, no, it's still far from enough." Moonlight Smoke looked at Cold Wind, and her expression couldn't calm down for a long time. "Wait until Little Smoke masters the Wood Leaf Sword Style, then you can praise her."
Although the two old men were praising Moonlight Smoke, their eyes never left Cold Wind.
In the battle just now, there was no doubt that Moonlight Smoke crushed Cold Wind, but the strength shown by Cold Wind made the two old men …
Shocked, the young clan leader of Moonlight Smoke Clan showed great strength!
They couldn't believe that the young clan leader with mediocre talent could master the Body Flicker Technique!
The two old men had already joined the UC Shock Department.
"Wind-chan, are you okay?"
Seeing that the battle was over, Keiko hurriedly ran down to check on Cold Wind. Seeing that there were so many scratches on his coat, she was even more alarmed. Fortunately, he wasn't bleeding, so she was a bit relieved.
"I'm fine." Cold Wind smiled and put away his kunai.
"Brother, reflect on your mistakes!!" Gale also ran down. "Brother, I also want to graduate early and learn the Body Flicker Technique."
"I said I can't skip grades." Cold Wind said seriously.
"But brother himself is … so cunning." His little brother wasn't happy. He urgently wanted to learn the Body Flicker Technique and then fight people like his brother.
"Little Cold Wind, I didn't expect that we'd all misjudged you."
Moonlight Smoke laughed. "Although your talent in swordsmanship is poor, you're very talented in other aspects!"
"Body Flicker Technique is hard to master even for a Genin. Little Cold Wind, Daddy Godfather!" Moonlight Smoke encouraged.
Cold Wind quickly modestly said, "Actually, I haven't completely mastered the Body Flicker Technique. My body can't withstand that kind of speed for a long time."
"It's good to recognize your own shortcomings. Little Cold Wind, you have to work harder to exercise your body. You can't relax!" Moonlight Smoke seriously said, "Even if you can't inherit the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship, you will definitely become an excellent ninja in the future!"
"I know my talent is not good, but I believe that hard work can make up for it. As long as I keep practicing the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship, one day in the future, I will inherit the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship!" Cold Wind said with a determined expression.
The two old men looked at each other with gratification and some helplessness in their eyes. If the Wood Leaf -Ryu Swordsmanship could be mastered by hard work, then the name of Moonlight Smoke would have already spread throughout the ninja world.
But since Cold Wind was so thoughtful, the two old men didn't want to pour cold water on him. They vaguely said a few words and left with Moonlight Smoke.
