Chapter 108: Sparring with Kurenai Yuhi
Kitazawa followed the Anbu ninja, Haru, to the ninjutsu storage room.
After a brief thought, he decided on the three ninjutsu.
Water-style: Water Wave, Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, and Fire-style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, which he had a task for but hadn't obtained yet.
For ordinary ninja, there are three types of ninjutsu that are difficult to obtain.
The first is forbidden jutsu, such as Reanimation.
The second is ninjutsu with strategic significance, such as the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
The third is secret techniques or Kekkei Genkai passed down by ninja clans, such as the Multi-Size Technique and the Gentle Fist.
Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique and Fire-style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, although they are signature ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan, are not among the three above.
After Kitazawa chose the three ninjutsu, he basically laundered the ninjutsu rewarded by the system.
But this was limited to the present; he would think of ways for future ninjutsu later.
Kitazawa put away the three ninjutsu scrolls and returned home.
"Teacher Kitazawa."
Yakumo Kurama, who was sitting on the sofa, stood up to greet him.
She was holding the Truth-Telling Jutsu scroll, clearly already starting to learn it.
"Continue your studies."
Kitazawa looked left and right, not finding Kurenai Yuhi.
She was mostly likely sleeping in the room.
Kitazawa thought for a moment and went to the open space behind the house.
He practiced ninjutsu in a showy manner.
Time passed slowly, and by noon, Kurenai Yuhi woke up.
She sat up, stretched, and then noticed a scorching chakra fluctuation.
"Who is practicing Fire-style? Kitazawa?"
Kurenai Yuhi walked to the window and looked out.
As expected, it was Kitazawa.
Under his control, a large amount of chakra turned into clusters of flames, scattering like the fruits of a phoenix flower.
This was Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique.
Kurenai Yuhi recognized it at a glance.
She knew that many ninja could perform this Fire-style ninjutsu, but Kitazawa seemed very proficient.
These clusters of flames seemed to come alive in his hands, hitting whatever he pointed at.
In Kurenai Yuhi’s impression, Kitazawa was a normal Chunin.
But now, he seemed somewhat unfathomable.
Kurenai Yuhi remembered what Kitazawa had said before, that she could call him when the mission was short-handed.
She rubbed her chin, curiosity appearing in her eyes.
Kurenai Yuhi left the room, put on her shoes, and went outside.
"Awake? Did you sleep well?"
Kitazawa dissipated his chakra and asked.
"I slept very well."
Kurenai Yuhi said with a smile: "I feel like I have endless energy now."
"Lord Hokage rewarded three ninjutsu."
Kitazawa reminded her: "Go to the Hokage building when you have time."
"As expected of Lord Hokage, very generous."
Kurenai Yuhi paused and asked again: "Is the Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique you just practiced one of the ninjutsu rewarded by Lord Hokage?"
"Mm."
Kitazawa nodded.
"You hadn't learned Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique before?"
Kurenai Yuhi’s expression changed slightly, and she asked.
"No."
Kitazawa guessed what she was thinking, but he didn't explain, because this was exactly what he wanted.
"You learned Fire-style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique in one morning? Your talent in Fire-style ninjutsu is amazing."
Kurenai Yuhi sighed: "Going to be a teacher at the Ninja Academy is a waste of your talent."
Normal ninja can have a team leader, and can often go out to perform missions, not lacking opportunities for training.
But teachers at the Ninja Academy cannot have these.
In Kurenai Yuhi’s view, it was precisely because of this that Kitazawa’s talent hadn't been realized.
"Want to spar?"
