Chapter 285 Quasi-Shadow (Ch 728160177)

In the end, perhaps because the opponents who had the ability to defeat Chuanbei’s masters had already competed, the atmosphere was a bit dull for a while.

Yi Chen looked around and thought that Sanchuan was the only one who had not appeared yet. He was thinking about how to get Sanchuan to leave, but Sanchuan took the initiative to step forward.

“I’ll do the last one.”

Yi Chen was surprised, while Chuanbei’s eyes lit up. The failed challenges just now had brought him a lot of gains, but somehow, his body and his knife were telling him that there was still a little bit more to come, just a little bit more.

After Mifune stood up, Kawaichita attacked Mifune with all his strength without saying a word, faster, faster, faster.

Chuanbei swung the sword with the fastest force he had seen in so many battles today.

Yi Chen didn’t feel much from this scene. He just realized that Chuanbei had made some progress. However, many of the swordsmanship masters who had just defeated Chuanbei changed their expressions.

“To this extent?” They all looked at the sword masters of several major schools. Chuanbei had reached the level of these sword masters. You have to know that these sword masters not only defeated Chuanbei, but also prevented Chuanbei from getting hurt. This means that the strength of both sides is actually far behind.

But in the blink of an eye, Chuanbei has crossed that hurdle. Although Chuanbei is still very immature, I believe it will catch up soon after further training.

“What a genius! No wonder he was accepted as a disciple by the Tsuchikage and even went through the trouble to bring him to challenge the masters of the Land of Iron.” These swordsmanship masters were all filled with emotion.

All these flashed through these people’s minds in an instant, and at this time Kawakita had already rushed in front of Mifune.

Kawakita used the most powerful sword move he had ever made since learning swordsmanship, and all his attention was focused on Mifune.

But unfortunately, even so he still couldn’t see Mifune’s movements clearly.

Mifune seemed to have just waved his hand lightly, and seemed not to have moved at all, but after that moment, Kawakita felt as if something in his body had broken.

I looked at the knife in my hand, it was intact. I touched my body, there was still nothing wrong with it. So what was broken?

At this moment, a voice sounded in Chuanbei’s mind: “Why do you learn swordsmanship?”

“For what? Yes, for what?” Kawakita looked confused. “To become an excellent ninja? It doesn’t seem so. To repay the teacher’s teachings? It doesn’t seem so. To protect the companions and the village? It doesn’t seem so either?”

“What’s that for?” Kawakita couldn’t help but recall the first time he came into contact with a long sword when he was young.

Kawakita’s parents were only Genin, and usually didn’t use swords, but kunai. But one day, his father suddenly brought back a short sword, which was said to be the trophy of a wandering ninja killed by his father.

When his parents were out on a mission, Kawaichi picked up the short knife out of curiosity, which was a bit heavy for him at the time.

At that moment, Chuanbei had a feeling that he liked knives. Since then, Chuanbei seemed to have never left knives.

Although the knife in my hand now is no longer the same knife as before, and I have changed many knives, the knife in my heart has never changed.

It turns out that I learned swordsmanship simply because I like it!

“Boom!” At the moment when Chuanbei gave the answer himself, it was as if a thunder exploded in Chuanbei’s ears, and the things that had just been shattered seemed to be reassembled.

“Oh, it turns out that what just shattered was the knife in my heart.” At this moment, Chuanbei was completely awake.

Yi Chen didn’t know what was happening in Chuan Bei’s heart, but he could see that Chuan Bei’s aura was beginning to become restrained. Yi Chen was overjoyed. Good boy, he has become a quasi-shadow?

The swordsmanship masters who had just defeated Kawakita all changed color at this moment. They had only felt this feeling on Mifune.

Could it be that…

No one paid attention to their shock, and Mifune waited for Kawakita to come back to his senses before turning to Yichen and saying, “Tsuchikage, we have done everything we can, so we won’t keep any Tsuchikage.”

Yi Chen nodded, took out a long sword he got from Uchiha Madara, threw the long sword to Mifune, and said: “This sword was originally intended to be a thank-you gift to the senior who taught Kawakita swordsmanship. But I didn’t expect so many people to teach him today, so I only brought one, please forgive me.”

After hearing this, Kawakita immediately bowed to Mifune and the sword masters and said, “Thank you for your guidance, seniors.”

Mifune nodded but said nothing.

Those swordsmanship masters returned the salute with complicated expressions. They felt a little puzzled as they might not be the opponent of Chuanbei, who they had just defeated, the next time they met.

Seeing this, Yi Chen, knowing that he was unwelcome, took the four people and left along the same route.

Watching Yi Chen and the other four leave, Sanchuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was surprised by Chuanbei’s progress, he felt more at ease that he was not involved in the chaos of the five major countries because of this matter.

…

On the way back to the Land of Earth, Yi Chen was very excited, even more excited than Chuanbei himself.

Look at Kawakita, the more I look at him, the more I like him. I guess Oonoki also looked at himself in the same way.

In order to ensure that Yichen could successfully become a quasi-kage, Ohnoki even gave up chasing the fleeing Konoha ninja army.

“Chuanbei, do you want to take a break?” Yi Chen asked.

Chuanbei shook his head and said, “Teacher, I’m fine.”

Yi Chen nodded. He was not clear about how each person would react when they became a quasi-shadow. There were too few templates to refer to.

For example, Yi Chen and I Cang directly learned the property changes of the fifth attribute.

But Chuanbei said that he didn’t have that feeling at all.

“Alas,” Yi Chen felt a little regretful, but then he thought, was he too greedy? “Forget it, this result is already satisfactory.”

Yi Chen, who was in a good mood, treated Uzumaki Riori and the other two more strictly, always feeling that they were not practicing hard enough.

“Hurry up, Akino, hold on, you’ve only been running for a short time; Riori, control your strength, look at what you’ve done to the branch, if you keep doing this, everyone will know that a ninja just passed by here; Jingqing, what’s wrong with you, didn’t I tell you to use water jutsu to cover everyone’s tracks? How come you can’t even do this?”

The three little ones tried their best to do what Yi Chen said while looking towards Chuanbei with resentment.

It is because Kawakita has become a quasi-shadow that, in comparison, it seems that something is wrong with the three of them.

Before, in the eyes of the three people, Chuanbei was a safe and reliable big brother. Why does he seem so hateful now?

Chuanbei felt a little embarrassed when being stared at by the three men, so he slowed down his pace and deliberately fell behind them.

Seeing this, Yi Chen hurriedly said: “Chuanbei, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest? It’s okay. The three of them are tired anyway.”

Kawakita: …

Three people from Class 5: …

The three members of Class 5 actually feel like they are in a dream now. They now know what quasi-shadow is. To put it simply, it is estimated that in another one or two years, Kawakita will be at the same level of strength as their teacher and the third generation.

That’s Ying’s strength. How did Brother Kawakita suddenly reach that level?

Under Yi Chen’s deliberate exploitation, Team 5 traveled without sleep and finally returned to the Iwagakure in agony.

After leaving three exhausted disciples at the entrance of the village, Yi Chen took Chuanbei directly to the Hokage Building.

On the way, Chuanbei asked, “Teacher Yichen, is it okay to put pressure on them like this?”

Chuanbei naturally knew that Yichen’s dislike for the three people was all fake, and the three people probably knew it too. Yichen just wanted to find an excuse to train them.

It’s okay, they are just too relaxed. Think about how you have been practicing since you were a child, you won’t die.

Chuanbei thought about himself, then thought about the three people in Class 5, and stopped talking.

Arriving at the Tsuchikage Building, Yi Chen directly convened the advisory group to share the good news.

The moment Oonoki and Ikura saw Kawakita, they knew something was wrong, and they both exclaimed in unison: “Kawakita has become a quasi-shadow?”

Mei and Saka, who were following Ohnoki and about to enter the Tsuchikage’s office, were also stunned, and then they were delighted. Is the Iwagakure going to produce another Kage-level person?

In the conference room, Yi Chen looked very proud as he watched the four consultants constantly looking at Chuanbei.

Among the four, Ban was the most touched. It seemed as if he was right in front of him when Yichen picked up the list of three disciples for the first class. At that time, Yichen himself was only a jonin, and his strength was not as good as his.

Now only a few years have passed, it seems only seven or eight years. In these seven or eight years, not only Yi Chen became a Shadow early, but even his disciples became Quasi-Shadows.

Saka felt like he was dreaming.

Ohnoki was the first to react and said, “Kawakita, from now on, you will not be on missions outside the village. Don’t leave the village until you become a true Kage. Also, although you mainly learn swordsmanship, the village does not have any S-level ninjutsu related to swordsmanship, but according to convention, you have one chance to choose an S-level ninjutsu, so you should go and see if there is anything suitable in the Sealed Book.”

Chuanbei nodded. Yi Chen had already told him all this before.

Chuanbei said: “When this graduating class graduates, I also plan to accept a few disciples.”

Chuanbei had never thought of taking in a disciple before, but during this period, first on the way to the Rain Country, he acted as a babysitter, and then on the way to the Iron Country, Yi Chen showed off their master-disciple relationship, which made Chuanbei want to take in a disciple.

Since I will be staying in the village for a long time anyway, I might as well accept a few disciples to help me pass the time.

Ohnoki and others now fully support the idea of ​​the Jonin accepting disciples.

If he wasn’t afraid of leaking information, Ohnoki would have asked Yichen to call a meeting of all the jonin in the village to talk to everyone about Kawakita’s situation, in order to encourage everyone’s enthusiasm for accepting disciples.

The next day, Yichen took Chuanbei to see the Book of Seals. Because Yichen had already introduced the catalog of ninjutsu in the Book of Seals to Chuanbei in advance, Chuanbei’s selection process did not take much time.

The ninjutsu that Chuanbei chose was the one that Yichen suspected was derived from the reincarnation eye technique, a ninjutsu that used chakra to condense a giant sword outside the body.

After Kawakita completely memorized the jutsu, Yichen placed a seal on his mind.

When leaving the secret room, Chuanbei suddenly told Yichen: “Teacher Yichen, Zhi Zihui has become an elite jonin.”

Yi Chen was stunned: “Ah?”

Chikoe and Kawakita graduated in the same class. Kawakita has become a quasi-Kage, so it doesn’t seem like a big deal for Chikoe to become an elite jonin.

But Yi Chen was still a little surprised, because Zhi Zihui’s talent was too average and her upper limit was actually very obvious. Yi Chen had always thought that Zhi Zihui could only be a jonin for the rest of her life, but he didn’t expect that she still had room for improvement.

“How did she get promoted?” Yi Chen asked curiously.

Kawakita said, “After returning from Konoha, the village promoted all three of her disciples to Chunin. It was at that moment that she became an elite Jonin.”

“Do the third generation know about it?” Yi Chen asked.

Chuanbei shook his head and said, “Not yet. Zhi Zihui herself is not sure either. She came to me yesterday to confirm it after she knew I was back. We decided to wait until this class of students graduates and then go together to select disciples.”

Yi Chen nodded and said, “I understand. I’ll talk to the third generation and let her get promoted.”

Kawakita left to practice S-level ninjutsu, while Yichen excitedly went to meet Ohnoki and other high-level officials.
