Chapter 139: Kajiyama’s Ninjutsu (Ch 703584488)

Chiko Hui and Kawakita were successfully promoted to Chunin after the first competition. Only Kajiyama Satoshi, although he also won the competition, still needed to continue to participate in the assessment.

On the contrary, Jun Maruyama, who lost the competition to Kawakita, was also considered by Ikura to have the strength of a Chunin and was promoted as well.

In addition, more than a dozen people including Kaminozuko were also promoted. Ikura promoted them based on only one reason, that is, their demonstrated strength had reached the level of Chunin.

If you are unlucky and the opponent you meet is too weak and falls before you can show your strength, then, sorry, you will have to continue tomorrow.

This is the case with Huagang Future. His strength is definitely enough, but his opponent is not strong enough and he is defeated before he can even expand.

So in addition to the dozen or so people who have demonstrated the strength of a Chunin, there are also some people whose strength has reached the Chunin level, but they have not yet been promoted.

Kajiyama Satoshi can barely be counted as one of the few who have slipped through the net. His strength had only just reached the Chunin level. Without an equally matched opponent, it would be difficult for him to exert his full strength.

After the competition was over, Kajiyama Satoshi, Kawakita and the sisters Chikoe were about to leave the training ground when they were stopped by an examiner.

The examiner came to invite Chikoe at Ikura’s request, and did not invite anyone else. So Chikoe, who had originally planned to have a meal together, had to leave her sister Kotake and two companions to look after her while she went to see Ikura first.

Chi Zihui knew that she had performed well today and was the focus of everyone’s attention, so she was not too surprised by Ikura’s summons.

But when Chikoe heard Ikura say that Tsuchikage Ohnoki wanted to see her, she couldn’t help but exclaim.

That’s the Tsuchikage, the leader of the Iwagakure, the strongest being in the entire ninja world. Yes, that’s right, that’s what the Iwagakure promotes. After all, Ohnoki has mastered the only bloodline-eliminating Dust Release, and his level is indeed the best in the ninja world. Yes, pictures speak louder than words.

Unlike Yi Chen, the strange ninja, the ordinary ninjas of Iwagakure have hardly ever seen this Tsuchikage-sama except in some public occasions where Ōnoki’s presence is required.

In their eyes, Ōnoki is powerful and mysterious.

Now this god-like figure actually wants to see her, and Zhi Zihui is so excited that she is unable to calm down for a moment.

Ikura understood Chikoe’s thoughts, so on the way to the Tsuchikage Building, Ikura explained to Chikoe the reason and also explained the process of a ninja breaking through to the rank of Jonin.

The little girl, who was just excited about becoming a Chunin, suddenly felt a little dizzy when she heard that her path to becoming a Jonin had become smooth sailing.

The dazed Chikoe followed Ikura all the way to the Tsuchikage Building and met Oonoki smoothly.

Oonoki observed Chikoe for a while, and then said, “Chikoe, you are as good as your teacher. You have both made this crucial leap at such a young age.”

“Now is a time of war. I need to boost everyone’s morale, so I will slowly inform everyone of your strength. I hope you can understand.”

Chi Zihui nodded subconsciously, not knowing whether she had heard it or not. Anyway, what the Tsuchikage said was right.

“As compensation, you can receive a B-rank ninjutsu for free.”

This favorable condition is not available to others. Neither Yi Chen nor Yi Cang had such treatment back then.

However, although Ohnoki said that this was compensation for using Chikoe for publicity, it was actually also compensation for the village’s lack of attention to her over the years.

Ōnoki also didn’t want a genius to feel dissatisfied with the village, even though Chikoe now seemed to have a sense of belonging to the village.

This time, Chi Zihui heard it clearly. When she heard that she could get a B-level ninjutsu for free, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

She encountered difficulties in developing her ninjutsu, and in this regard, Kajiyama was more successful than her because Yichen knew a lot of A-level and B-level water-style ninjutsu and had helped Kajiyama experience it.

But Yi Chen himself does not know wind jutsu, and Zhi Zihui does not have enough chakra, so even though Yi Chen has a B-level wind jutsu, he has never passed it to Zhi Zihui.

Therefore, Chi Zihui’s development of ninjutsu was subject to a huge limitation, that is, vision.

Vision is very important for a ninja who wants to develop ninjutsu. For example, Yi Chen drew on the water whip when developing the water cutting technique.

Zhi Zihui has now learned the six C-level wind-style ninjutsu taught to her by Yi Chen, and the development of new ninjutsu is also based on the understanding of these six ninjutsu.

This is basically a joke. Fortunately, although Yi Chen does not know wind ninjutsu, he still has some knowledge about it. He has taught Chi Zihui some wind ninjutsu in the original work many times.

It was because of these that Chiko Hui was able to barely maintain the development of ninjutsu. But after so much progress, it inevitably encountered a bottleneck.

“Now that I have broken through the level of Jonin, according to what Lord Ikura said before, my chakra will grow rapidly in the future.”

“With the chakra amount as a foundation, Teacher Yi Chen should be able to give me that B-level wind jutsu, so that I will have two B-level wind jutsu.”

Thinking of this, Chi Zihui became full of hope for the development of ninjutsu.

Oonoki’s meeting was simple. After a brief chat, he let Ikura take Chikoe away.

After leaving the Tsuchikage Building, Chikoe said goodbye to Ikura and hurried to find her two teammates and sister to share her joy.

On the second day, Kajiyama’s luck was still not very good. The opponent he met was not as strong as his opponent on the first day, Nagano Risa. Kajiyama still did not get promoted.

It wasn’t until the third day that Kajiyama encountered the equally unlucky genius Mikami Aya.

I don’t know if it was Ikura’s deliberate arrangement, but in today’s competition, many powerful ninjas met suitable opponents.

With the precedent of Kawakita and Maruyama Jun being promoted at the same time, everyone understands that it is a good thing to meet an evenly matched opponent, and winning or losing becomes less important.

So when Kajiyama Satoshi and Mikami Aya saw each other, they both breathed a sigh of relief, and then began a serious fight.

Mikami Aya is at the same level as Maruyama Jun, and is one of the two youngest in this assessment. Maruyama Jun’s advantage is that he has awakened his bloodline, while Mikami Aya’s advantage is that he has a ninja beast that is always with him.

There are not many Ninja Beast families in the Iwagakure Village, and among these few families, there are not many Ninja Beasts either. That is why the White Cat’s Ninja Beast Dango is valued by the village.

Aya Mikami comes from this kind of ninja beast family, and his ninja beast is a pangolin.

Although this pangolin is also in its growth stage, it has extremely fast speed and stabbing ability, and ordinary Genin can’t withstand several waves of attacks. What’s more, the pangolin is not fighting alone, Mikami Aya herself is also a powerful Genin.

Kajiyama also saw Mikami Aya’s battle a few days ago, and he was very impressed by this pangolin.

Although his overall strength is slightly inferior to that of a Chunin, his speed and attack are no worse than that of a Chunin.

And these two are exactly what a ninjutsu-type ninja like himself is most afraid of encountering.

So when the battle started, Kajiyama adopted a defensive counterattack strategy.

First there was a water wave that changed the terrain in a small area. The suitable battlefield for the pangolin is a dry rocky environment, so after Kajiyama blocked the attacks of Mikami Aya and the pangolin with the water wave, he also changed the environment to be suitable for the pangolin to fight.

Although she avoided the attack of the water wave, Mikami Aya now understood Kajiyama’s intention when she saw the pangolin’s speed being affected after being wetted by the water.

“Damn it, I fell into a trap.”

Kajiyama, who took the initiative, did not rush to attack, but instead used a water clone.

Mikami Aya, who thought that Kajiyama would take advantage of the situation to attack, secretly cursed herself for being so stupid. How could she just watch a ninjutsu ninja perform it at will.

Without any hesitation, Mikami Aya and Pangolin began to detour from both sides, one on the left and one on the right.

Originally, Mikami Aya thought that Kajiyama created a clone in order to make up for the difference in numbers and would adopt a one-on-one tactic.

But Mikami Aya didn’t do that. His water clone directly formed a seal and used the Water Flow Wall. Then, under Mikami Aya’s stunned gaze, a circular water wall directly surrounded Kajiyama and his water clone.

However, after the previous failure, Mikami Aya has become serious. She immediately understood that Kajiyama Riku wanted to use this relatively safe environment to calmly perform offensive ninjutsu.

Not wanting to let Kajiyama succeed, Mikami Aya and Pangolin first tried to attack from the left and right, and found that the water wall could recover on its own after being destroyed.

This can be considered as a small gain in Kajiyama’s development of ninjutsu, a circular water wall that can be repaired.

Unless it encounters an attack that exceeds the upper limit of the water wall’s tolerance at one time, as long as there is enough chakra, theoretically this water wall can be maintained.

Does Mikami Aya have such a powerful attack method? The answer is yes.

Neither Mikami Aya herself nor Pangolin can do it. Mikami Aya is a physical ninja who is good at close combat and protracted battles, and does not have instantaneous explosive attacks.

Although the pangolin’s attack power is strong, it is a targeted attack. The pangolin can easily pass through the water wall, but cannot break through the water wall.

However, Mikami Aya has another combination skill.

After seeing that the attack alone was ineffective, Mikami Aya joined the pangolin, and then the pangolin climbed onto Mikami Aya’s back. Then Mikami Aya first retreated to create some distance, and then rushed forward. Halfway through the rush, the whole person curled up into a ball, and the pangolin just wrapped Mikami Aya’s outer layer.

Finally, a high-speed rotating sphere smashed into the water wall.

Since the outermost layer of the sphere is the hard shell of a pangolin with the chakra of a human and an animal attached, this move is very effective for attacking tough targets.

When the sphere encountered the water wall, the water wall was quickly worn away from the outside to the inside by the huge force of rotation.

Then with a loud bang, the entire wall of water scattered.

After breaking through the water wall, Mikami Aya and Pangolin also stopped spinning. Looking around, they found that there was water vapor all around them, thinking that it was not good. Mikami Aya was about to separate with Pangolin and leave this area where the line of sight was blocked.

But it was too late. A line of water rose from under his feet at an extremely fast speed, instantly binding him and the pangolin together like a dumpling.

When the steam cleared, the examiner next to him could see the situation clearly. Seeing that both of them were safe, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he announced, “Kajiyama wins.”

After hearing the examiner’s voice, Kajiyama let go of the water line and breathed a sigh of relief. He was under a lot of pressure in this battle. Both of his teammates passed the test in one try, and he, the temporary captain, became the one who held them back.

Now it’s finally over. My performance today should be good enough to advance.
