"Let's use so simple ninjutsu."
Kiyoshi said, taking out a sword from the sealing scroll.
Powerful ninjutsu would damage the nearby buildings.
This area is relatively prosperous, so a slight mishap would cost an astronomical figure.
Kakashi nodded and slowly drew the short sword from his back.
Since only a simple ninjutsu is in play, it is best to use so auxiliary ninjutsu.
Such as Body Flicker Technique and Substitution Technique.
Kakashi nodded slowly, and then instantly mobilized chakra to the soles of his feet. Then, he rushed towards Kiyoshi.
Bang!
The two swords collided violently in the air.
The sound of tal colliding sounded in the sky above the rooftop, sparks flying everywhere.
"Your sword is too long." Kakashi said lightly.
The sword Kiyoshi was using was more than twice the length of the short sword in his hand.
"I like to use longer weapons."
Kiyoshi smiled slightly.
He suddenly exerted force with his wrist, and his sword flashed with a cold light and swept out.
He did not use Chakra Flow: Fire Release, just his sword.
The advantage of a long weapon is that it covers a wide range.
Although it consus more energy, Kiyoshi can support it with his physical talent and constantly exercised body.
If other ninjas of the sa age were to imitate Kiyoshi's fighting style, they would be panting after just a few swings.
Perhaps because Kakashi was focused on developing lightning ninjutsu, he had neglected his swordsmanship.
He gradually began to be suppressed by Kiyoshi.
Even with just hus normal vision, Kiyoshi could see Kakashi's movents clearly.
'His speed of growth is so fast.'
Kakashi was secretly startled, and his eyes widened a bit.
He had sparred with Kiyoshi before. Back then, Kiyoshi was not as strong as he is now.
Kakashi felt that Kiyoshi's speed and reaction had beco much faster.
Kiyoshi could quickly see through his movents.
Crack!
A trace of electric arc erged. But it was not from Kiyoshi, but from Kakashi.
While trying to develop a new technique, Kakashi had also learned so lightning release ninjutsu.
He knew how to activate his body's cells in the most basic way.
The blades of the two constantly intersected in the air, causing sparks to fly.
Minato arrived with Kurenai, Rin, Asuma, and Obito and witnessed the two's swift offensive.
"As expected of Sakumo-senpai's son."
Minato sighed, and then focused his attention on Kiyoshi.
Whether it is athletic ability or reflexes, it can be seen that Kiyoshi is very talented.
Rin and Kurenai were both watching Kakashi and Kiyoshi.
Obito and Asuma were secretly wondering how they could handle Kiyoshi's speed if they were in Kakashi's position.
Before long, Kiyoshi caught a flaw.
With an upward pick, he knocked Kakashi's short sword away.
Kiyoshi said, "Kakashi, you have beco unfamiliar with many of the things that Sakumo-sama had taught you."
Kiyoshi stopped continuing to swing his sword.
Kakashi had only used lightning chakra to activate a little bit of his body.
This was because Chakra Flow and so other techniques were not used.
White Fang's short sword emits a white light.
Of course, whether Kakashi can do that as of now is another question.
"I have beco a little unfamiliar with it."
Kakashi shook his head, secretly thinking that he was too focused on lightning release ninjutsu and had neglected swordsmanship.
He bent down to pick up the short sword, but there was no look of loss on his face.
Winning and losing is normal. He had wins and losses when he had sparred with Kiyoshi in swordsmanship before.
This is not a real life-and-death duel, and both of them had not used their best ninjutsu.
"You have acquired the trait: [Skilled Fingers (White)]"
[Skilled Fingers (White)]
[Requirent: Have a faster hand speed than the current Kakashi.]
[Progress: Completed]
[Effect: Your hand gestures for forming hand seals are like works of art. Hand speed is increased by 10% on the original basis.]
[Note: Can be upgraded.]
Listening to the trait system's prompt, Kiyoshi closed it.
Improving the speed of forming hand seals...
This trait is not bad.
Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique requires 44 hand seals.
With this trait, while the enemy is at the 40th hand seal, Kiyoshi will have already completed the hand seals. (Assuming their base hand seal speed is sa.)
The ti required to make even one hand seal can decide life and death.
Moreover, this is a percentage bonus. Kiyoshi's hand seal speed is already very fast.
Now, he is one of the best among Chunins in terms of hand seal speed.
"Minato-sensei, why are you here?"
Kakashi asked, looking at the people who had co here.
"It's nothing. I just ca to take a look." Minato said.
Kakashi nodded, and then went down.
Kiyoshi also followed. When he passed Rin, Kiyoshi's right eye twitched.
Kakashi is indeed going astray, so he will help correct Kakashi.
It's just that in the process, Rin needs to pay a little fee.
This is essentially an equal exchange.
...
The next day
The group gathered at the village entrance, checked their supplies, and embarked on the road to the Land of Demons.
Most ninjas walk on foot for travel, because the outside of Konoha is full of rugged mountain roads.
Only ninjas can step on the tree trunks and constantly shuttle through.
The Land of Demons is in an extrely remote location, and many ninjas do not even know where this place is.
Since it was their first ti performing a long-range mission, both Minato and Yuki were very careful.
This is not just a simple mission within the Land of Fire.
To reach the Land of Demons, one needs to cross the borders of several countries.
In the current tis, the situation has beco increasingly tense and constant frictions are happening in the ninja world.
So, encountering attacks from so rogue, wandering ninjas, and even from other ninja villages is very likely.
Each village has a list of geniuses from other villages in their hands.
If their ninjas et these geniuses, they will try their best to kill them in the cradle.
If the ninja has a Kekkei genkai, they will take advantage of the fact that they do not have protection, and directly kidnap them.
Kiyoshi and his party were lucky and did not encounter any danger along the way.
But Rin's expression was not quite right, and she kept talking to Kakashi.
Kakashi seed to be stimulated by Kiyoshi, and did not pay much attention to Rin.
Not only did he not give up practicing lightning release ninjutsu, but he also focused on honing his swordsmanship.
Except for when travelling, Kakashi was putting all his efforts to training his swordsmanship. So, Kakashi beca even busier.
"It's getting dark, let's rest here for now." Minato said.
After a whole day of travel, continuing to travel at night without rest will be dangerous.
"Obito, quickly take out a pot." Minato glanced at Obito and said.
When performing missions, ninjas carry Military Ration pills and so basic dry food.
But when there are no enemies, they can make a fire to cook and make so instant food.
This will relieve the ninja's ntal fatigue.
After all, constant missions take a tool on the ninja.
With the accumulation of psychological pressure, a ninja may face a severe ntal problem.
