in the audience.
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Jiraiya stared at the scene of Konoha Village's training ground on the screen.
Naruto looked closely and realized that the blond youth in the picture was none other than his father, Minato Namikaze!
His eyes lit up immediately, and he excitedly pointed at the screen, shouting, "Ah! It's my father!"
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
Sakura immediately realized what was happening and her eyes widened: "Was today's dream about when Kakashi-sensei's class was formed?!"
Sasuke subconsciously touched his chin, his gaze fixed on a black-haired boy wearing goggles standing next to Kakashi on the screen, his brows furrowed slightly: "That guy with goggles—he looks kind of familiar."
Although it was just a dream image, for some reason, Sasuke felt that the boy's appearance seemed familiar.
Jiraiya sat to the side, and seeing the spirited young Minato, a look of nostalgia appeared on his face.
Compared to the middle-aged Minato in Naruto's previous dream, this young Minato is the one I remember most vividly.
In his memory, the young and spirited Minato Namikaze in front of him was the very disciple he had personally trained back then.
on the screen.
Three figures stood in the center of the field, seemingly waiting for something.
Suddenly, a golden figure appeared at the edge of the arena.
A blond-haired, blue-eyed young ninja was walking towards the three genin.
A few strands of golden hair fell across his forehead, and a gentle, cheerful smile graced his handsome face.
He looked exceptionally smart in his standard Konoha Jonin uniform, with a light green vest draped over it.
"I am Minato Namikaze, who will be your Jonin instructor starting today. Please take good care of me!"
The voice was clear and bright, like the morning light, refreshing and soothing.
Obito and Kakashi stared at the handsome young Jonin who had just made his appearance, momentarily lost in thought.
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
Obito's expression became complicated.
Seeing his teacher standing before him again in such a youthful manner after so long, his pupils contracted slightly, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
An indescribable emotion surged in his chest, but ultimately it turned into a feeling of awkwardness and dissatisfaction.
Standing next to them, Nohara Rin was oblivious to the unusual emotions of her two companions; she was completely absorbed by the newly appointed teacher.
Lin's eyes sparkled, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she exclaimed, "What a handsome teacher! He seems so reliable!"
Obito rolled his eyes, scoffed, and then quietly leaned close to Rin's ear, whispering, "He's the most unreliable person. Rin, you absolutely mustn't trust him!"
"Talk?" Rin looked at Obito with some surprise and a puzzled expression. "Obito, do you have a problem with our teacher?"
Obito was hostile towards his teacher from their first meeting, leaving Rin completely baffled.
Obito was speechless when Rin asked him that question. He pursed his lips, turned his head away, and muttered in a low voice, "N-no! Just don't believe him!"
Kakashi frowned slightly upon hearing this, glanced at him warily, knowing that Obito still harbored resentment towards their teacher, but said nothing.
Minato Namikaze naturally heard Obito's vague mutterings and couldn't help but look at the kid with goggles with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
Even though it was our first meeting, this child seemed to have a strong prejudice against me?
Minato scratched his head, momentarily confused, but he didn't press for details. Instead, he maintained his warm smile and said, "Next, the three of you, why don't you introduce yourselves?"
"Okay!" Lin raised her hand vigorously, smiling sweetly as she was the first to speak: "My name is Nohara Lin, I'm 12 years old."
I'm skilled in medical ninjutsu, please take good care of me!
She introduced herself in a natural and graceful manner.
After Rin finished speaking, Kakashi and Obito each briefly introduced themselves.
Minato Namikaze nodded in satisfaction after the three students finished their self-introductions: "Very good. Now, let's begin with our first exercise!"
"exercise?!"
Upon hearing those two words, Kakashi and Obito both involuntarily shuddered, their nerves immediately tensing: They're here! They exchanged a glance, both seeing a gleam of excitement in each other's eyes.
Obito couldn't help but chuckle coldly, lowering his voice to excitedly mutter to himself, "The interesting part is coming!"
A hint of anticipation flashed in Kakashi's eyes, and he unusually curled the corners of his mouth to agree, "That's right, the interesting part is coming."
Their eyes met, and they exchanged a knowing, sly glance.
There aren't many opportunities for Minato Namikaze to get a chance to win.
The two were very familiar with the content of the exercise that Minato Namikaze had mentioned.
Sure enough, the next second, Minato Namikaze pulled two small bells from his ninja tool pouch, gave them a gentle shake, and announced with a smile, "The exercise is this—snatching bells one by one!"
in the audience.
Seeing Minato take out the bell, Sakura immediately exclaimed from her seat, "Ah, it's this test! So Kakashi-sensei learned it from the Fourth Hokage!"
No wonder Kakashi-sensei used to make them compete for bells during their graduation test; it turns out this tradition can be traced back to the Fourth Hokage!
Jiraiya chuckled upon hearing this, then shook his head meaningfully: "The history of this exercise is quite extensive."
As he spoke, his gaze became distant. "Back then, when Tsunade, Orochimaru, and I first met the old man—the Third Hokage—we were also fighting over bells!"
Jiraiya wore a nostalgic expression, as if recalling events from many years ago.
"Perverted Sage!" Naruto suddenly looked up with great interest upon hearing this, leaned close to Jiraiya, and asked curiously, "So, which of the three of you ended up being tied to the stake?"
Naruto's question hit the nail on the head.
Upon hearing this, Sakura and Sasuke also turned their curious gazes to Jiraiya, waiting for him to reveal the answer.
"Um, this—" Jiraiya felt extremely uncomfortable under her gaze, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead, and he inwardly groaned.
[Ding! Jiraiya's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
He never expected Naruto to ask such an awkward question.
In an instant, Jiraiya recalled being teased by the old man with a bell, and then shamefully tied to a wooden stake and left to starve.
How could he possibly tell Naruto and the others the truth about something so shameful?
Jiraiya coughed a few times, feigning nonchalance: "Cough cough cough! Is there even a need to think about it?"
He put on a serious face and said in a straight face, "It must be Orochimaru! He's the weakest of the three of us!"
"Oh~" Naruto nodded as if he suddenly understood, stroking his chin in agreement, "Indeed! Granny Tsunade and the Perverted Sage are both very powerful, but Orochimaru couldn't even beat Sasuke's brother."
Sasuke, unusually, nodded in agreement, snorted, and sneered, "That Orochimaru tried to trick me into going with him! He's just an idiot like Naruto—"
Naruto immediately jumped up, clenching his fists. "Damn it, Sasuke, you're the idiot!"
"You are."
"Who are you!"
"Which road to drag!"
"Sass, give it your all!"
"Which road to drag!"
"Sass, give it your all!"
When Jiraiya saw that the two kids actually believed his lies, he couldn't help but blush. Fortunately, Sasuke and Naruto's attention was no longer on him.
In the scene, just as the exercise was about to begin, Obito suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
He recalled that Kakashi seemed to have shown off during this exercise.
Obito's eyes darted around, and he subtly alerted Rin, who was standing to the side with a serious expression. He couldn't miss this opportunity to show off in front of Rin!
He quickly cleared his throat and shouted in a deep voice, "Kakashi! Rin! Use the first formation you learned at school!"
Kakashi and Rin were taken aback for a moment, but they still reflexively did as instructed.
Kakashi flashed to the left; Rin immediately retreated to the right.
The three spread out in a triangular formation, partially surrounding Minato Namikaze in the center.
Caught off guard by his teammate giving him orders first, Kakashi was filled with questions: Wasn't that his line?
Rin was also taken aback by Obito's sudden burst of energy, her eyes widening in surprise: "Obito seems unusually motivated today!"
Obito noticed the admiring look Rin was giving him, and felt secretly pleased, almost bursting out laughing: Hmph, this time it's Obito who's stealing the spotlight!
He noticed that Kakashi was looking at him with a speechless expression.
What's wrong? You're allowed to steal my lines, Kakashi, but now that it's my turn, you're not happy?
Joking aside, Kakashi and Obito quickly suppressed their smiles, their expressions turning serious again.
They knew better than anyone else about Minato Namikaze's immense strength.
That was a legendary Jonin, the "Yellow Flash of Konoha," with numerous battle achievements and a far-reaching reputation. Don't be fooled by Minato Namikaze's gentle and kind appearance; Kakashi and Obito both knew very well how terrifying his true strength was. Moreover, this teacher was quite "unethical in his martial arts."
Obito still remembers it clearly: when he first tried to steal the bell in real life, Minato Namikaze ended up using the Flying Thunder God Technique!
The "Yellow Flash" of Konoha Village actually used this secret technique during a training exercise against three rookie ninja students.
Minato Namikaze is a terrible teacher!
Kakashi and Obito understood perfectly well that a direct confrontation was virtually impossible; they only had one chance.
That is to take advantage of the fact that Minato-sensei still thinks they are just harmless genin rookies, and go all out to give him a good scare and catch him off guard!
If this attack fails, and Minato Namikaze gets serious, they will have no chance of winning.
The two exchanged a glance and nodded in unison, both seeing the same seriousness and determination in each other's eyes.
The next moment, Obito, without hesitation, rushed out first!
"Go!" Obito shouted and charged forward first.
His hands moved in a blur, rapidly forming a series of complex hand seals. He took a deep breath, puffed out his chest, and then roared, "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
In an instant, a huge, blazing fireball burst forth from his mouth!
A blazing fireball swept across the open space, instantly burning the grass along its path until it curled and turned yellow. A wave of heat swept over us, and even the air itself seemed to distort and ripple from the heat.
Minato Namikaze raised an eyebrow slightly upon seeing this.
How could a newly graduated genin unleash a fireball of such speed and scale?
However, this level of threat is not enough to pose a threat to him.
With a light tap of his foot, his golden figure left a blurry afterimage as he instantly shifted several meters to the side, easily dodging the fireball's direct attack. At the same time, he casually chuckled and commented, "Not bad Fire Release!"
With a deafening roar, a blazing fireball slammed into the ground, sending up a cloud of dust that enveloped the area where Minato Namikaze had been standing.
At the same time, two smoke grenades that had been hidden in the grass were ignited by the high temperature and exploded with a bang, instantly spreading thick white smoke and enveloping the entire training ground in a white haze.
Minato Namikaze narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly through the smoke: "You can actually use ninja tools skillfully, not bad!"
Before he finished speaking, he flashed and quickly leaped onto the trunk of a large tree to the side, watching the scene warily from his elevated position.
Kakashi and Obito's continuous, fluid attacks left Rin unable to intervene for a while. She could only nervously grip her kunai and watch the battle unfold from the sidelines.
Below, smoke filled the air, obscuring all visibility.
Just then, a strange red light flashed through the smoke, and the pupils of two Sharingan eyes clearly appeared behind the mist!
Obito showed no mercy, unleashing his full Sharingan power and directly launching a Sharingan genjutsu at Minato!
Minato Namikaze was startled, but before he could react, Obito's Sharingan began to spin wildly.
His pupil power surged forth, and an invisible spiritual shock surged toward Minato Namikaze.
Obito was secretly delighted: His genjutsu had worked!
Despite only having two tomoe Sharingan, Obito's genjutsu talent is extraordinary.
He wasn't much older than he is now when he used illusions to control the Mizukage of Kirigakure, let alone now that he has much more experience and skills.
Even if we can't control Minato Namikaze for long by going all out now, we'll have more than enough time to create a momentary opening!
Sure enough, Minato Namikaze felt a momentary daze as the scene before him blurred, his brain felt as if it had been struck, and his consciousness involuntarily froze for a fraction of a second.
However, relying on his rich combat experience, he instantly mobilized all his chakra and suddenly broke free from this brief restraint.
opportunity!
Obito's pupils narrowed, and he suddenly roared at his companion beside him, "Kakashi!"
"Perfect timing!" Kakashi shouted, and a piercing thunderous sound suddenly erupted from his palm, which was held together by his five fingers.
His Thousand Birds were already poised for battle!
The dazzling lightning bolts shot out like a thunderclap, illuminating Kakashi's face beneath his mask with an unusually cold and stern expression.
He seemed to transform into a blinding streak of silver-white lightning, charging towards Minato Namikaze from the flank.
It was so fast that it was almost impossible to catch!
The strong winds along the way sent grass, leaves, and pebbles flying everywhere, making a whooshing sound.
However, at the critical moment, a soft "whoosh" was heard, and Minato Namikaze's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!
Instead of being surprised, Obito smiled and said: Here they come!
He was very familiar with the Flying Thunder God; he had been searching for its whereabouts for a long time.
He had noticed earlier that Minato Namikaze had quietly thrown out a special three-pronged kunai while dodging the fire jutsu, which was now stuck in a tree trunk not far away.
As Kakashi launched his attack, Obito had already slipped behind the tree, waiting to ambush him.
As Obito watched Minato Namikaze disappear from the spot, he immediately prepared to snatch the bell at any moment.
Obito had already planned what he would do after he snatched the bell.
Lina had an admiring look in her eyes.
Sure enough, the next second, a dazzling golden light flashed before Obito's eyes, and Minato Namikaze's figure appeared in front of him like a ghost.
Obito was overjoyed: Damn it!
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
However, what greeted him was not the bell that Obito had hoped for, but a fierce spinning kick!
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, Minato Namikaze's right leg struck Obito squarely in the side.
Obito grunted and flew out like a kite with a broken string, tumbling several times in mid-air before finally crashing into the grass with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust!
Lin turned pale with fright upon seeing this.
"Obito!"
