Chapter 517 A Strong Person Worthy of Attention (Asking for Monthly Votes)
After the facilities needed for the martial arts competition were completed, Mu Yue announced the news of Hanzo's watching the game and various matters of the Youth Martial Arts Competition.
The Youth Martial Arts Competition has undergone many rounds of publicity. Interested people have been waiting for the specific news of the event. Once the news was released, people who wanted to participate in the competition or watch the game rushed to the Land of Rain.
In Konoha, in addition to the genius who Sarutobi Hiruzen took the initiative to ask about his intentions, there were also some young ninjas who wanted to participate in the martial arts competition to gain experience.
After all, the registration fee is only 68,900 taels, which is just a small amount of money for ninjas. Even if they can't get the ranking reward, they can also see the legendary ninja master Sosuke.
Thinking that leading one team is leading, leading two teams is also leading, Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned other ninjas who wanted to participate and let Mu Yue lead the team to the Land of Rain.
"Your ninja level is rising so fast, even Shisui has become a jonin." Asuma, who is still a chunin, couldn't help but sigh.
When he graduated, it was when Shisui entered school, but Shisui became a jonin and he was only a chunin. This promotion speed is really outrageous.
"Hehe, let me tell you the secret of our promotion." Obito laughed.
Asuma instantly became interested, and Yuhi Kurenai also turned her ear towards Obito.
"First, fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and then complete some S-level tasks." Obito replied.
Asuma team: ...
If they meet the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, they will be promoted to Jonin, and there will be no people, and now there are no Seven Ninja Swordsmen in Kirigakure, only Two Ninja Swordsmen.
Kirigakure has no intention of seeking peace, so Konoha certainly cannot return the ninja swords. In order to prevent Kirigakure from using special means to retrieve them, the several ninja swords seized have been in a sealed state.
Without ninja swords, there will be no new members, so Kirigakure may only have two people for a long time, unless Kirigakure is willing to create new ninja swords.
"The secret is very good, but it's a bit useless." Asuma couldn't help but pat Obito on the back.
"But with you guys participating, the rewards may all go to us in Konoha. I don't know if the people of the Ninja Clan will mind."
Asuma knew how perverted Obito and his friends were. He had practiced so hard, but the gap was getting bigger and bigger.
When he and Obito participated in special training together, Obito was only slightly better than him. By the time of the Chunin Exam, Obito could already crush him.
Although Asuma has never seen Obito take action now, the fact that Obito assisted Kakashi in killing the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish in the battle of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was enough to prove his strength.
"As long as we are not unlucky and meet our own people, we will definitely rank high." Obito said confidently.
Various missions and experiences on the battlefield gave Obito enough confidence.
"Don't underestimate other ninjas in the ninja world. The restriction of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament is that you cannot participate if you are over 18 years old, not 12 or 11 years old." Kakashi reminded.
Although Kakashi is not conceited, he will not belittle himself. He never denies that he is a genius among ninjas.
But Kakashi didn't think he could kill everyone except Mu Yue's disciples at the Youth Martial Arts Conference, because he was too young, only eleven years old.
Other contestants might not be as talented as him, but they had practiced for seven more years than him, so it was hard to say who was stronger and who was weaker.
"Kakashi, do you have relevant information?" Obito asked curiously.
Obito also knew about the age, so he didn't say too much, just said high ranking, didn't say that he would definitely take the top two or top four.
"A little bit, but not much." Kakashi shook his head and replied.
There are very few ninjas who can become famous in the ninja world at the age of about eighteen, and the last batch of ninjas who became famous at the age of eighteen are already over eighteen, such as Namikaze Minato.
"So you don't know, then you still pretend to know a lot." Obito complained.
He couldn't stand Kakashi's comparison the most, especially in front of Nohara Lin.
Kakashi laughed and said nothing.
Because the distance between the Shinobi Clan's headquarters and Konoha was not particularly far, Mu Yue chose to leave at a later time.
When Mu Yue led the team to Liudao City, Liudao City was already very lively. There were many ninjas on the streets, with forehead protectors of various forms.
However, the ninjas who came here all had their own purposes. Only a few idiots would go up and cause trouble, but they were also dealt with quickly by the ninjas of the Ninja Sect, which looked quite harmonious.
"There are so many people, and there are ninjas from the enemy village." Obito exclaimed.
It was the first time he saw so many ninjas from different ninja villages at the same time. He saw many different forehead protectors at a glance.
In terms of the number of ninjas, the ninjas of the ninja army are more and more spectacular than here, but the ninja army is a forehead protector, which is a different scene.
"It shows that the ability of the Ninja Sect is not bad." Kakashi commented.
For the current situation in the ninja world, it is not easy to make so many ninjas from ninja villages calm and not fight.
Even if there are only one or two teams of ninjas, it is normal to have a collision.
After handling the accommodation, Kakashi and others formed a team to sign up.
The Ninja Clan did a good job in guiding Kakashi and his friends to the registration office, and they were able to find the registration office for the Youth Martial Arts Tournament easily.
However, looking at the crowd gathered together, Kakashi felt that he could easily find it without guidance. There were too many people gathered here, not only the contestants who wanted to register, but also the accompanying personnel of the contestants.
"It's Hoshigaki Kamon from Kirigakure." Might Guy saw a Kirigakure ninja who had a slight impression in the crowd.
Hoshigaki Kamon had forced Kakashi and others into a desperate situation in the Death Forest section of the Chunin Exam, and he had announced his name, so Might Guy remembered him.
"Are you talking about Hoshigaki Kisame?" Kakashi was stunned by Might Guy's call of Hoshigaki Kamon, and recalled carefully before remembering his real name.
"Ah, isn't it Hoshigaki Kamon? I should be right. I remember that we exchanged a sentence in the third exam." Might Guy recalled again and felt that he was right.
Might Guy's confident look made Kakashi a little unconfident. Could it be that he remembered the name wrong?
"The Kirigakure ninjas are here to participate in the competition. We will beat them hard again like we are on the battlefield." Obito saw the Kirigakure ninja who had won him once by chance in the Chunin Exam.
Although he had already completed his revenge in the third round of the Chunin Exam, winning again would prove his strength.
"Such strong chakra, which ninja village is this ninja from?" Kakashi, who opened the transparent world, suddenly felt a strong chakra.
He just thought that since so many players gathered here, there might be strong opponents, but he didn't expect that there would be masters he didn't know when he opened the transparent world.
Kakashi calmly changed his position to close the transparent world, but found that the ninja with strong chakra didn't have a forehead protector on his head.
"No forehead protector or is he a ninja from a non-ninja village?" Kakashi speculated in his heart.
It's not that there are no strong ninjas from non-ninja villages, but they are too rare. If there is one under 18 years old, it will be even rarer.
"Thunder Fang Kakashi, Green Beast Might Guy, Instant Body Shisui, Konoha's geniuses are here." Some ninjas noticed the arrival of Kakashi and his friends.
Although Kakashi and his friends have not yet become well-known in the entire ninja world, they are still famous in several surrounding countries.
Obito looked around for the person who was talking. He called Kakashi and his friends but not him. He looked down on him, right?
Unfortunately, there were so many ninjas here, and many of them were chatting. Obito looked hard but couldn't find who was talking.
Mei Terumi and Mangetsu Kizuki and his group looked back when they heard these familiar names.
"It's really them. The competition pressure is so great." Mei Terumi frowned slightly.
Except for Obito, who was restrained by her, Mei Terumi fought a little, Kakashi, Might Guy, Shisui, and Mei Terumi felt that they were all doomed to fail.
"Might Guy." Hoshigaki Kisame stared at Might Guy.
Hoshigaki Kisame still can't forget the disastrous defeat that Might Guy gave him in the Chunin Exam.
"Are they the Konoha geniuses who once defeated the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" Mangetsu Kizuki showed an interested look.
He thought that if Kirigakure still had ninja swords, he could directly become one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, so he regarded Obito and the others as equals.
"It's Maki from Sand Village."
At this time, a ninja from a small ninja village recognized the new Sand Village in the Sand Village team.
"There are so many talented ninjas from big ninja villages." Some ninjas from small ninja villages had the idea of retreating.
Originally, they thought that there might not be many people participating during the war and wanted to come and pick up the leaks, but after thinking carefully, sending a few young ninja teams would not affect the situation.
Although they were not going to participate in the competition, the ninjas who were not participating were also prepared to watch the competition before leaving because they were already here.
...
On June 25th, the preliminaries of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament began.
Spectators were not allowed to watch the preliminaries. For the audience, the knockout rounds after the preliminaries were the official start of the competition.
Since the number of participating ninjas exceeded 200, Mu Yue divided the participating ninjas into eight divisions, and each division had four places to enter the knockout rounds. The preliminaries fought round by round until only four players were left.
After drawing lots, Obito and the others gathered together to communicate.
"I am number one in the second division, how about you?" Obito raised the number in his hand and said first.
"Number 15 in the eighth division!" Might Guy smiled with shining white teeth.
The others all breathed a sigh of relief. If they were in the same division as Might Guy, it would be a bit of luck.
"I am number one in the first division." Kakashi continued to answer.
"I am number ten in the fifth division." Shisui said.
"I am number 10 in the fifth division." Shisui said.
"I am number 10 in the fourth division, and everyone is in a different division." Nohara Lin said with a smile.
According to the competition system of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament, it is a good thing to be in different divisions. Otherwise, if they meet in the first game in the same division, one of them must not enter the knockout round.
However, Nohara Lin's worries were unnecessary, because the division of the competition area was manually arranged by Mu Yue.
The existence of the preliminaries is to ensure the excitement of the knockout rounds. Mu Yue separated the stronger ninjas, so that geniuses would not fail to enter the knockout rounds due to luck.
"Kakashi, Obito, hurry to the battle field of the second division. You are all in the first match." Nohara Lin reminded gently.
The eight divisions will be held at the same time, rather than one division finishing first and then proceeding in order.
"Well, Xiaolin, you have to cheer up. When you fight, Xiaolin, I will go over to cheer you up." Obito encouraged Nohara Lin before leaving.
"Obito, you too, never underestimate your opponent. Even if the ninja is not as strong as you, you must go all out." Nohara Lin nodded and said seriously.
"After the battle, you can collect information about other ninjas." Leaving this sentence, Kakashi left for the battle field of the first division.
Because Kakashi moved faster, Kakashi stood for a while after he arrived before the game began.
"In the first round, the first contestant, Hatake Kakashi, will compete against the second contestant, Kamioka Daisuke." The referee quickly read out the list in his hand.
Whoosh!
After hearing his name, Kakashi used the instant body technique to reach the battle field.
Ueka Daisuke was stunned when he heard that his opponent was Raiga Kakashi. The referee read out his name for the second time before he walked to the battle field in a panic.
"What a bad draw, I was asked to fight Raiga." Ueka Daisuke cursed in his heart.
"The battle begins!" The referee shouted after seeing that the players were ready.
Swish, swish, swish! !
Ueka Daisuke quickly took out the shuriken from his ninja tool bag and threw it at Kakashi.
Although Raiga Kakashi had a record of killing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Ueka Daisuke could not just admit defeat since he was already standing on the battle field.
Dangdang! !
Kakashi chopped off all the shuriken with his white fangs, and then concentrated his breath to burst out at an extremely fast speed.
Ueka Daisuke only felt that Kakashi suddenly accelerated, and before he could make too many moves, the next moment the white fang short blade was against his neck.
"The gap is so big..." Ueka Daisuke stared at this scene with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
He knew he couldn't beat Kakashi, but he didn't expect to lose just by throwing a shuriken. He thought it would take at least two or three rounds.
"Number one Hatake Kakashi wins." The referee immediately announced Kakashi's victory.
Kakashi put away his sword and walked out of the battle field. He first entered the transparent world state and took a look at the ninjas in the first division. After finding no ninjas worth recording, he left and went to the second division.
"Number one Uchiha Obito wins."
Kakashi just walked into the second division when he heard the referee's announcement of Obito's victory.
Obito, who won the battle, left the battle field happily and happened to see Kakashi coming.
Obito's smile instantly faded a little. He just thought about winning the game and going to Kakashi to "cheer" for Kakashi, but Kakashi was faster.
"I'm going to the third, sixth, and seventh divisions to take a look. Do you want to come with me?" Kakashi invited.
These are the zones where Mu Yue's disciples are not present. Kakashi wants to go over and observe to see if there are any ninjas worth noting.
In fact, there is no need to observe too much in the zones where there are disciples. You can get information by exchanging ideas with each other at night.
"No, I want to go to the fourth zone." Obito refused.
Kakashi felt that he might have to observe the second zone occasionally. It was not like Obito could collect information like this.
"That Mist Ninja." When Kakashi walked to the third zone, he saw Mangetsu Kizuki fighting.
Kakashi stopped and prepared to watch Mangetsu Kizuki's performance. Mangetsu Kizuki's chakra was not weak either.
"Fall down!" The ninja dressed as Iwagakure waved his long sword and stabbed Mangetsu Kizuki.
But Mangetsu Kizuki did not dodge and smiled at the Iwagakure rushing towards him, allowing him to pierce his body with the sharp sword.
"Turn into water?" The Iwagakure ninja was surprised to find that Mangetsu Kizuki had turned into a water man.
The Iwagakure ninja quickly pulled out his sword, and the position where Manzuki Hozuki had just been stabbed quickly recovered, as if nothing had happened.
The Iwagakure ninja wanted to continue to chop Manzuki Hozuki, but Manzuki Hozuki pointed his hand like a pistol at the Iwagakure ninja.
"Water Cannon Technique!"
Bang!
A liquid like a bullet shot out and knocked the Iwagakure ninja to the ground.
"Manzuki Hozuki wins!"
Manzuki Hozuki noticed Kakashi after leaving the battlefield. In the Youth Martial Arts Conference, there were only a few ninjas with Kakashi's figure, and with his sparse white hair, he could be easily spotted.
"You seem to be a disciple of Lieyang Muyue?" Manzuki Hozuki asked Kakashi.
"Yes." Kakashi nodded in acknowledgement.
Muyue's disciple was a proud identity for Kakashi, and there was no need to lie.
"Then I'm not mistaken. Don't lose before the elimination round, Hatake Kakashi." Manzuki Hozuki said provocatively.
Kakashi looked calm. One of Kirigakure's Jinchuriki had been killed by Konoha, so it was normal for Kirigakure ninjas to hate him.
And if Kakashi remembered correctly, Mu Yue had killed a strong man named Kizuna Zangetsu on the East Coast battlefield, so maybe he had some relationship with Kizuna Mangetsu.
"You must be confused in your heart. I'm not a stingy person. I'll tell you straight. Mangetsu Kizuki is my uncle." Mangetsu Kizuki replied with emotion.
"Although we haven't met many times, he is indeed my uncle."
Kakashi was a little speechless. Why was he confused? Mangetsu Kizuki looked like a normal person, but his actual performance was similar to that of Obito.
Kakashi, who was bothered by the trouble, didn't say anything else and quickly rushed to the sixth competition area.
"Player No. 3 Sand Crab vs. Player No. 4 Ueda Hisashi!"
The first battle in the sixth competition area was a little slower. When Kakashi arrived at the sixth competition area, it was only the second game of the first round.
"So his name is Sand Crab." Kakashi stopped and prepared to watch the game.
This ninja named Sand Crab was the ninja he noticed when he used the transparent world before, and he had a powerful chakra in his body.
"The battle begins!"
As soon as the referee finished speaking, Ueda Hisashi took action and rushed towards his opponent with his sword.
Facing the attacking Ueda Hisashi, Sand Crab calmly took out a kunai to deal with it.
Due to the large gap in strength, Ueda was quickly caught by the Sand Crab and kicked to the ground.
Just when Ueda wanted to get up quickly and continue fighting, he was suddenly surprised to find that his body moved by itself.
"What's going on!" Ueda was shocked and watched himself stab the knife into his abdomen.
The other spectators were also surprised, not knowing why Ueda suddenly hurt himself.
"Sand Crab wins!" In order to prevent the players from getting into trouble, the referee directly announced the end of the fight.
At the moment the referee shouted, Ueda found that the control of his body was back, and he quickly pulled out the knife and covered the wound.
"Chakra line, is it a puppeteer?" Kakashi, who entered the transparent world state, observed that after Ueda fell to the ground, several thin lines touched Ueda's body.
If you want to say who is the ninja who plays the chakra line best and most colorfully, it is undoubtedly the puppeteer of Sand Village.
A powerful puppeteer can control multiple puppets to attack, which is difficult to resist.
Kakashi was a little uncertain, because the ninja named Sand Crab did not wear a forehead protector from the Sand Village.
The Youth Martial Arts Tournament was very popular, and a large number of ninja villages participated in the competition. Winning the Youth Martial Arts Tournament was good for the ninja village and might attract commissions, so there was no reason for the ninja village ninja not to wear a forehead protector.
"I have to watch it again after the second round of battle." Kakashi thought.
With the current trend, he can deal with the enemy faster and should be able to reach the sixth competition area before the Sand Crab battle begins.
Then Kakashi went to the seventh competition area.
Don't worry if you don't go there, as Kakashi was shocked when he went there.
"What a terrifying chakra." When Kakashi observed Nagato's chakra with the transparent world, he was instantly shocked.
Nagato's chakra is not a question of how much or how little. Except for the Jinchūriki, Kakashi has never seen any ninja with such strong chakra.
Kakashi felt that he should change an adjective. Among the ninjas he had sensed, there was no one as perverted as Nagato.
Because there are so many strong people in Konoha, Kakashi is not a peeping Tom, and he will use the transparent world to see a person.
"It's the member of the Akatsuki organization." Kakashi looked at Nagato's appearance, and gradually recalled some memories in his mind.
Kakashi had a deep impression of the Akatsuki organization, because Naruto said that the Akatsuki organization was a terrorist organization that robbed the tailed beasts, but after they investigated in the Rain Country, they found that the current Akatsuki organization was not only not terrifying, but also very positive.
"Nagato No. 19 vs. Kurosawa No. 20."
Kakashi looked at the battlefield seriously. Kurosawa was the Kirigakure he met in the Chunin Exam. Although he was not as good as Hoshigaki Kisame and Terumi Mei, he was also pretty good.
"Water Style·Kigigakure Technique!"
Kurosawa retreated quickly as soon as he came on the field, and then sprayed thick fog to cover the entire battlefield.
"Wind Style·Suppression!"
Nagato made a seal with a calm face and spit out a high-pressure wind ball.
Whoosh! !
The wind ball turned into a huge storm the moment it landed, and the thick fog that Kurosawa blew away was blown away by the powerful storm in the blink of an eye.
However, the power of the pressure was not limited to this.
The powerful high-pressure wind block raged in the field, and the ground was blown to pieces. Kurosawa did not expect that Nagato would use such a terrifying ninjutsu. He was hit by the high-pressure wind block and vomited blood and flew backwards.
Kakashi: ...
They were very hard during the Chunin Exam, so why are they so bad now, and they were killed in one move.
"The ninjutsu is very strong, but if it is only this level, it can still be dealt with." Kakashi deduced in his mind.
Equivalent to Nagato's exaggerated chakra, Nagato's ninjutsu level did not actually make Kakashi feel particularly surprised.
Obito and Shisui's fire escape, Kakashi's own lightning escape, they can all do this level, and even stronger in the breathing method chakra state.
"Come and see again in the second round." Kakashi planned to stay in the sixth and seventh competition areas except for his own competition area today to study Nagato and the sand crab.
It's hard to say that Sand Crab has shown too little so far, but Nagato is really not to be underestimated just for his chakra and wind escape.
PS: I'm a little stuck, 6k today, but the plot has finally transitioned.
Also, please give me a monthly ticket, double monthly ticket has started.
