Shh..."
After the figures around them became relatively still!
The atmosphere on the training ground gradually quieted down!
Just as everyone was patiently waiting!
Several more figures appeared in the distance!
Two Hokage advisors! Koharu Utatane! Homura Mitokado!
And another thing! The Dark Side of Konoha! Shimura Danzo!
"What a lively day!"
After briefly greeting several familiar ninjas,
Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, and Danzo Shimura rightfully occupy the spots, aside from Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya!
The location with the widest view!
"They're here!"
The subsequent wait didn't last long!
A few minutes later!
Hiruzen Sarutobi led four people, including Tetsuya Fujiwara and Shinga Yuhi!
They walked over, chatting and laughing!
That intimate smile immediately drew the attention of many people!
"Hehe! We've all arrived!"
At this moment! The Konoha ninjas have gathered at the training ground!
There are definitely over a hundred people!
"Lord Hokage!"
Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's laughter!
Everyone restrained their thoughts and responded respectfully in unison.
"Hiruzen! You were reckless this time!"
"As the Hokage of Konoha, your every word and action represents the face of Konoha!"
"To spar with a brat! It's beneath the dignity of the Shadow of Konoha!"
How dare you use such an infuriating tone in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi!
It's Koharu Tsutomu, of course!
The matter between the Katatane clan and the Fujiwara, Tanaka, and Uesugi clans!
Although it's still over!
But the past events are like thorns stuck in the hearts of both sides!
As the strongest member of the Tōtō clan!
Xiaochun's attitude towards switching dorms is naturally biased towards those who switch dorms!
What's with all this talk about separating public and private matters!
Such things, in any dynasty, always have prerequisites!
"Xiaochun! I just did it on a whim!"
"It's rare to see someone in such high spirits!"
"Don't stop me!"
Meeting Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze!
Shimura Danzo and Mitokado Homura immediately turned their heads away!
Only the stubborn Koharu Utatane remains!
After feeling the increasing pressure in that gaze!
I just stepped aside!
"Tetsuya!"
"This sparring match! It's the same format as the Chunin Exams!"
"You can use any ninjutsu you know! Taijutsu! Genjutsu! Including all kinds of ninja tools!"
"Don't worry about hurting me!"
"Unleash your full power! Let me see just how far you can go!"
"Does he/she possess the talent to become a Kage-level powerhouse?!"
Arrive at the center of the training ground!
Hiruzen Sarutobi's straight figure!
It just slowly turned around!
In an instant, they entered battle mode!
"Yes! Lord Hokage!"
"I will give it my all!"
After a few seconds of silence, Fujiwara Tetsuya slowly drew the small katana from his back.
He had just borrowed this small katana from Uchiha Mikoto!
The sword's name is Cicada's Cry!
Although it's a little inconvenient!
But its strength lies in its sturdiness and sharpness! It won't be crushed by Hiruzen Sarutobi in the blink of an eye.
"So!"
"The Seal of Opposition!"
In the instant of Indian transformation!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's body lunged downwards, but instead of advancing, he retreated!
He rushed towards Hiruzen Sarutobi at an extremely fast speed!
Under Tetsuya Fujiwara's manipulation, the cicadas' chirping emitted sharp, piercing sounds as they cut through the air!
"Such speed!"
"Sharp combat awareness!"
"But Tetsuya! You used your Leaf-style swordsmanship as the first move!"
"That was a miscalculation!"
Ding! A terrifying shockwave unleashed endless waves!
It was just a simple, casual strike!
Hiruzen Sarutobi deflected Tetsuya Fujiwara's sword light by exploiting an opening in Fujiwara's swordsmanship!
"As expected of the Third Hokage!"
"So your understanding of swordsmanship has reached this level?"
"Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Sky Slash!"
"Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Fall!"
"good!"
"Tetsuya! Has your swordsmanship improved to this level?!"
"But that's not enough!"
Through a brief encounter with Tetsuya Fujiwara!
This also allowed Hiruzen Sarutobi to assess Tetsuya Fujiwara's swordsmanship level!
With his Konoha-style swordsmanship, Fujiwara Tetsuya is qualified to fight against elite Chunin!
To reach this level at such a young age!
It's truly stunning!
"Lord Hokage, thank you for your guidance!"
"However! I did tell you this when we were in the Hokage's office!"
"I have gained new insights into swordsmanship!"
"Next! Please witness my growth with your own eyes!"
After Fujiwara Tetsuya raised his proficiency in Konoha-ryu swordsmanship to the mastery level!
Fujiwara Tetsuya is already able to use the Konoha-ryu swordsmanship!
Those secret techniques that only Jonin are qualified to master!
"Konoha Style Swordsmanship - Secret Sword - Moon Shadow"
With the aid of the Body Flicker Technique!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's figure gradually transformed into afterimages!
A series of deep, cold glints!
He kept stabbing at Hiruzen Sarutobi!
Act swiftly now!
The sight of the many ninjas watching from the sidelines caused their pupils to shrink in surprise!
"Oh! Moon Shadow!"
"Tetsuya! I never imagined you could master the Body Flicker Technique and swordsmanship to this extent!"
Faced with that sharp glint of the blade!
Hiruzen Sarutobi's steps never faltered!
Finally, they retreated!
However! Under the high-frequency vibration of the kunai in the right hand!
The secret techniques of the Konoha-ryu swordsmanship! He still managed to block them all!
"Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Dance of the Crescent Moon"
Dance of the Crescent Moon!
One of the absolute killing moves in Konoha-ryu swordsmanship!
However, this swordsmanship has extremely demanding requirements for the ability to create clones!
An ordinary Konoha Jonin!
They wouldn't painstakingly cultivate this secret technique!
Only Konoha's Anbu! Because they frequently carry out assassination missions!
That's why they chose to practice this secret technique!
"Hey! Hey! Hey!"
"You must be kidding!"
"This kid is not even nine years old!"
"He actually mastered such advanced swordsmanship!"
Looking at the three figures that attacked almost simultaneously!
A cacophony of sounds gradually rose from all around!
Many of Konoha Jonin had already cried out in alarm!
"teacher!"
"When did you teach Tetsuya these two secret techniques?"
"How come I didn't know?"
Just as the sunset was in a daze!
Uchiha Mikoto! Aburame Kido is coming right up to her!
His eyes held a hint of curiosity!
For the past few months, they've either been on missions or on their way back!
Opportunities to get special treatment are rare!
"I...I don't know either!"
Meeting those two clear gazes!
As the sun sets, I feel myself starting to slur my words!
Because the Sunset Clan possesses a secret technique called Illusionary Speed!
Therefore! After becoming a Jonin! His training in swordsmanship!
So it was gradually put on hold!
Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Secret Sword: Moon Shadow!
Leaf Style Swordsmanship: Dance of the Crescent Moon!
He hasn't even learned it himself! How can he possibly teach it to Fujiwara Tetsuya?
Could it be a deceased Jonin from the Fujiwara, Tanaka, or Uesugi clans?
Did you leave behind records of your spiritual practice?
A moment of silence followed! Then, through imagination!
As the sun set, I felt I had seen through everything!
