Chapter 94 Hatake Sakumo: Kiyoha, you are the strongest I have ever seen (First and Second Updates)
As the sun rises and sets, the journey continues.
The Land of Grass is located northwest of the Land of Fire, bordering the Land of Earth.
Its land area is not large, and its terrain is mainly composed of undulating hills and vast grasslands. As far as the eye can see, most of the area is an endless sea of grass.
For this reason, the Land of Grass lacks both natural geographical barriers and abundant mineral resources, and has been struggling to survive in the cracks between the five great nations for many years.
But it was precisely because of its barrenness and lack of defenses that the ninjas of Kusagakure developed the skill of infiltrating and lurking in the grasslands and hilly areas.
They are adept at using the terrain to conceal their movements, using grass and mounds as cover, lurking like venomous snakes, waiting for the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to their prey.
After arriving in the Land of Grass, Qingyu indeed experienced the unique landscape of the place.
"We've arrived in the Land of Grass."
Qingyu looked ahead.
The wind blows from afar, and the grass waves surge in layers, like an endless green ribbon spread across the earth.
Occasionally, you can see a few lonely trees, their branches and leaves tilted in the same direction by the wind.
Qingyu walked in the group, her eyes scanning the surroundings.
Unlike the deserts of the Land of Wind, the temperature difference between day and night is small, and there are endless grasses and occasional rolling hills everywhere.
It's too quiet.
This silence, however, made Qingyu a little wary.
In the Land of Wind, the harsh environment itself is a natural barrier, making it impossible for enemies to hide.
But in the land of grass, anything can be hidden in these waist-high grasses.
Moreover, some places have special environments.
Such as giant bamboo forests, mushroom forests, mountain forests, etc.
Once inside, the ninja can easily conceal themselves.
"This place is truly beautiful."
Hinata Ginka's voice came from the side.
Qingyu nodded.
"It is indeed very beautiful."
This wasn't just a polite remark.
Such scenery is not common in Konoha.
Hinata Ginka turned her head and glanced at Kiyoha.
The light of the setting sun fell on Qingyu's profile, making his already handsome features even more distinct.
At that moment, Hinata Ginka suddenly realized something.
She found that she needed to tilt her head slightly to see Qingyu's eyes clearly.
When did it become like this?
Hinata Ginka quickly recalled the events in her mind.
When they first met at the training ground, Qingyu's head was barely above her eyebrows. She looked down at him and even lectured him in a senior's tone.
Now, his height has caught up with mine, and he's even slightly taller.
Boys grow up fast at this age, but isn't it a bit too fast?
Is this the source of the Senju clan's power?
Hinata Ginka was puzzled.
"There might be danger lurking beneath this beauty."
Hatake Sakumochi.
"Although the Land of Grass claims to be absolutely neutral, that's because they have no choice between the great powers. The ninjas of the Hidden Grass Village are hardly friendly. They are good at hiding, using poison, and ambushing. Fighting them on the grasslands is more troublesome than dealing with the Hidden Sand Village in the desert."
Qingyu nodded.
"That's what I think too."
The Grass Country doesn't have many scenes in the original work, but every time it appears, it's not very good.
The extreme punishment prison of Hozuki Castle, the exploitation of Uzumaki Kaori and her mother by Kusagakure ——————
"The scenery here is so boring."
Tsunade walked at the very back of the group, her arms crossed.
This is the problem with having large breasts; they feel heavy after running for a long time.
Although it's not a big deal for her, she'll still get a little tired eventually.
"It's all grass, grass, grass, nothing but grass. There isn't even a decent mountain. You can't see anything at all. It's not even as interesting as the dice in the casino."
Tsunade's吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments).
Because she had carried out countless missions, she was already tired of the scenery, and it wasn't her first time visiting the Land of Grass.
Qingyu smiled slightly upon hearing this.
Being able to steer any topic towards gambling is indeed Tsunade's style.
Dusk deepened without us even realizing it.
The temperature on the grassland began to drop rapidly, and a chill was carried on the breeze.
Sakumo Hatake stopped at the edge of a sparse grove of trees, looked around, and nodded.
"We'll camp here tonight."
A few unidentified trees were scattered sparsely on the grass in this grove, their dense canopies barely providing some shelter from the night wind.
-
Most importantly, the terrain here is slightly higher than the surrounding grasslands, offering a wide field of vision and making it less likely to be ambushed.
Kakashi and Hyuga Ginka started setting up the tent.
Hyuga Ginka took out the folded tent fabric from her backpack and skillfully unfolded it, while Kakashi used kunai to drive the four corner anchors into the ground.
Qingyu walked around the camp and used the Shadow Clone Technique to create two clones. One clone jumped onto a treetop to keep watch, while the other set up several warning wires around the camp.
A small bell is attached to the end of the wire; the bell will ring whenever someone touches the wire.
The main body then walked into the camp and took out several teapots and water bags from its backpack.
Tsunade leaned against a tree, watching Qingyu bustling around, and sighed inwardly that this kid was becoming more and more responsible.
Although she always called Qingyu "little brat," she knew in her heart that this brat was more reliable than many Chunin or even Jonin.
After the tents were set up and the cordon was laid out, Kiyoha walked up to Hatake Sakumo.
"Senior Sakumo, could you please give me some pointers on swordsmanship?"
Sakumo Hatake was wiping his short sword when he heard this. He looked up, glanced at Kiyoyu, and then nodded.
"it is good."
Sakumo Hatake stood up.
Qingyu also drew the Thunder God's Sword.
The two walked to an open space next to the camp.
Tsunade stood up from under the tree, brushed the grass clippings off her skirt, and looked over with great interest.
Kakashi and Hyuga Ginka also stopped what they were doing and turned their gaze to the two figures in the open space.
"bring it on."
Sakumo Hatake let Kiyoha make the first move.
"Here I come, Lord Sakumo!"
Qingyu didn't stand on ceremony.
He pushed off with his feet and his figure flashed.
Body Flicker Technique!
With the speed boost from "Instantaneous Movement Technique", Qingyu covered the ten-meter distance in the blink of an eye.
He gripped the Thunder God Sword, and as his Fire Release chakra flowed, a layer of flames enveloped the sword.
Uchiha Style: Flame Light Slash!
The flames condensed into a thin line on the sword, which then transformed into a fan-shaped flame blade that shot out into the air with the swinging motion.
Sakumo Hatake's body flickered slightly.
The flaming blade grazed his shoulder, and the scorching heat blew the white hair on his forehead.
"The speed is good, but the trajectory of the slash is too straight."
While dodging, Hatake Sakumo spoke, his tone like that of someone explaining knowledge points to students in class.
"A straight slash is the most powerful, but also the easiest to predict. Try changing the angle at the last moment of the swing to prevent your opponent from reacting in advance."
As he spoke, he dodged Qingyu's second fiery blade that followed closely behind.
Seeing this, Qingyu moved closer and stepped forward.
clang!
Thor's sword and the dagger clashed head-on for the first time.
Dance of the Crescent Moon!
The next moment, Qingyu's figure split into three, with two shadow clones attacking Hatake Sakumo simultaneously.
This is also the Konoha-ryu sword technique that Kiyoyu learned from Maruboshi Kosuke, but this technique is not as high-level as "Konoha-ryu: Willow".
With a swift swing of his short sword, Hatake Sakumo first cleaved the shadow clone on the left, then swept it horizontally to obliterate the shadow clone on the right.
Qingyu's sword had already been blocked by him.
The two swords clashed in mid-air, sparks flying from their blades.
"Lord Sakumo is so strong."
Hinata Ginka stood at the edge of the camp, her white pupils reflecting the figures of the two.
"My father is certainly very strong."
Kakashi's tone was filled with pride.
"Qingyu's ability to persist for so long already demonstrates his astonishing talent in swordsmanship."
Hinata Ginka nodded.
She was well aware of the gap between herself and Qingyu.
If it were her standing in front of Sakumo Hatake right now, she probably wouldn't even last three rounds.
Qingyu not only held on, but was also able to launch a counterattack.
"His swordsmanship is indeed exceptionally talented."
Hinata Ginka said.
The two players on the field began to trade blows.
Kiyoyu could sense that Hatake Sakumo was clearly feeding him a move.
Qingyu then planned to use his strongest swordsmanship.
Konoha Style: Willow!
Qingyu's figure vanished into thin air like willow catkins scattered by the wind.
At the same time, in Sakumo Hatake's eyes, an overwhelming array of sword shadows appeared in the air.
Each sword shadow was incredibly sharp, radiating a chilling killing intent, making it impossible to distinguish which one was the real attack.
Hatake Sakumo was startled; he hadn't expected Kiyoha to possess such a technique.
But with his willpower and experience, he broke free from the illusion in an instant.
But in that moment of distraction, Qingyu had already gained time.
Qingyu slashed forward with his sword.
Sakumo Hatake could only belatedly realize what was happening and chase after him with his sword.
But this was within Qingyu's expectations.
Strange power!
Qingyu suddenly exerted force with his sword-wielding arm, releasing chakra in an instant, and the explosive power was transmitted along the sword.
Hatake Sakumo felt a jolt in his wrist as a brute force far exceeding that of a normal ninja pressed down on his short sword.
The force was so great that it made his hand go numb slightly, and he almost dropped the dagger.
His pupils contracted slightly.
Strange power?
Qingyu has already learned this move?
Sakumo Hatake quickly adjusted the angle of his grip on the knife, using the lever principle to deflect most of the impact.
At the same time, he pushed off with his feet and slid back two steps, completely dissipating the force.
Seeing that Hatake Sakumo had successfully blocked the attack, Qingyu took the initiative to sheathe his sword and retreat.
"That's enough for now, Sakumo-senpai."
Qingyu sheathed the Thunder God Sword and shook his head.
"Konoha Style: Willow" is a surprise attack technique that often catches the opponent off guard on the first use.
If it were to happen again, without the element of surprise and with Sakumo Hatake's vigilance, the effect would be greatly diminished.
Sakumo Hatake sheathed his short sword, walked up to Kiyoha, and gently patted him on the shoulder.
"You're already very capable."
Sakumo Hatake sincerely praised him.
"At your age, you have already managed to blend illusion and swordsmanship so naturally. Your swordsmanship talent is the strongest I have ever seen."
Hearing his father's assessment, Kakashi clenched his fists, realizing something.
He realized he might never be able to surpass Qingyu in swordsmanship, and Qingyu was a towering mountain blocking his path.
Because his father had never given him such high praise before.
However, even if he can't catch up in swordsmanship, he still has other paths to take.
Kakashi thought that even if he couldn't compare to Kiyoyu in swordsmanship, surely he could at least match her in lightning release?
"Lord Sakumo is too modest."
Qingyu shook her head.
Sakumo Hatake's fame surpassed that of the Sannin, and on the battlefield, he personally killed Chiyo's daughter-in-law and son, a feat that few in the entire ninja world could match.
Surprisingly, he remained so humble.
Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo gave a faint smile.
"The way of the sword is boundless; you will surpass me sooner or later."
Hatake Sakumochi.
To be honest, he genuinely felt that Qingyu would surpass him in swordsmanship in the future.
The future is destined to belong to these young people.
[Collectible trait detected: Heart of a Swordsmanship Apprentice]
[Rank D Trait: Heart of a Swordsmanship Apprentice]
[Effect: You will find it easier to learn other people's sword techniques.]
Qingyu looked at the words that appeared before her eyes and understood.
The Heart of a Sword Apprentice makes it easier for him to learn swordsmanship from others.
In other words, this is a trait specifically designed for learning by stealing others' skills.
With this trait, you'll learn more efficiently when sparring with others in the future.
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sakumo."
Qingyu said.
The two of them weren't actually fighting; it was more like they were exchanging blows and learning from each other, allowing Qingyu to improve even faster.
Sakumo Hatake waved his hand and turned to walk towards the camp.
Night was falling.
The chirping of insects rose and fell across the grassland, and occasionally a few calls from unknown animals could be heard in the distance.
-
After the tents were set up, Tsunade arranged for a system of taking turns keeping watch at night.
"Qingyu and I are in the first class."
Tsunade said.
After the arrangements were made, everyone dispersed. Hatake Sakumo crawled into his tent and lay down, while Kakashi and Hyuga Ginka also returned to their own tents.
Qingyu walked to the edge of the camp and sat down against a tree.
Tsunade walked over from behind and sat down next to him.
The starry sky above was clearer than that of Konoha, with the Milky Way stretching across the heavens and stars scattered throughout the night.
"Tsunade-nee, I want to go train for a while."
Qingyu said.
Tsunade nodded.
"Alright, I'll watch over it. Go and cultivate."
Qingyu stood up and walked out of the camp.
"Where are you going?"
"Tsunade asked."
"A place a little further away from the camp so as not to disturb their rest, and I can also keep watch for any noise outside."
"Don't go too far."
"understood."
Qingyu's figure quickly disappeared into the night.
He stopped on a small hill about 300 meters from the camp.
This location offers a wide field of vision, allowing you to see the situation at the camp and monitor the activity on the surrounding grasslands.
Then Qingyu began to refine Wind Release chakra.
The [Darkness of Ninja] trait dropped by Shimura Danzo increased his Wind Release talent by 60% and extended the range of his Wind Release ninjutsu.
It would be a shame to leave such a great boost unused.
Wind Release chakra condensed in his palm, and airflow began to flow between his fingers, emitting a faint whistling sound.
Qingyu compressed his Wind Release chakra into a thin, curved blade of energy, which he then attached to the Thunder God Sword.
