Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space

Aside from the Flying Thunder God Technique, Kazuki's overall strength was also improving at a visible pace.

His age was naturally a period of rapid growth for humans, where physical development inherently boosts strength.

Moreover, Kazuki had been diligently training during this time.

Even if he only practiced Sealing Jutsu and the Flying Thunder God Technique, such improvements were immense, not to mention Kazuki's other training.

At the same time, over the past six months, he had also gained significant benefits in the combat arena.

For example, defeating Itachi from his Chunin period granted him Itachi's combat wisdom.

Defeating Izumi from the night of the Uchiha clan massacre granted him her ocular power.

Defeating Queen Sāra granted him control over the Ryūmyaku.

Defeating Sasuke from the first Valley of the End battle granted him Sasuke's Lightning Release talent.

Defeating young Yahiko granted him Water Release Chakra.

Defeating Senju Kawarama granted him his physique.

Defeating Ebisu granted him Ebisu's basic Ninjutsu knowledge.

Thanks to Kazuki's own efforts and the achievements he racked up in the combat arena, his strength had reached the Jonin level, even subtly reaching the Elite Jonin level.

If such a thing were to be revealed, countless people would likely collapse.

After all, Kazuki was merely a seven-year-old child.

A seven-year-old Jonin was simply too shocking. Even Madara would probably suspect it was fake news if he heard it, as neither Madara nor Hashirama were anywhere near Kazuki's level at that age.

In fact, Mito had previously worried about Kazuki's situation, especially when she saw that Kazuki's Sharingan had unknowingly awakened to the Three Tomoe state, which stunned her.

Kazuki was not a normal Uchiha, how could a Sharingan evolve just like that?

Sometimes Mito couldn't help but wonder if Tobirama's analysis of the Sharingan was flawed.

However, Tobirama's arguments were based on extensive data, and even Madara could not escape this reasoning, yet Kazuki's Sharingan evolved just like that.

The Sharingan is only supposed to awaken when stimulated, and upgrade from one tomoe to two tomoe, and then to three tomoe, when stimulated.

However, Kazuki hadn't experienced any stimulation, his Sharingan just evolved.

Kazuki's mental state was also very normal.

Because of this, they could only conclude that Kazuki might be a special Uchiha, not to be judged by conventional standards.

This day, after completing the day's weeding mission, Kushina looked at Tsunade with a disgruntled expression.

"Tsunade-neesan, when are we going to do other missions? I'm sick of these tasks."

"Every day it's either cleaning, or finding people, catching dogs and cats, helping to pick fruit and such."

"When will these days end? We're here to train!"

Kushina's dissatisfaction drew glances from Kazuki and Rinka.

In reality, they too had long grown tired of such missions.

Although Tsunade and Mito had given them considerable guidance during this period, and their strength had rapidly improved, they weren't here to do manual labor.

Tsunade crossed her arms and looked at Kazuki. "What? You think so too? So what kind of missions do you want to do?"

"This squad has an Uzumaki orphan, a Hyuga young lady, and an Uchiha genius."

"If you leave the village, other villages and bounty hunters will all come swarming."

"Wouldn't that be even better?" Kushina eagerly swung her fist. "We're not weak, you know."

Rinka's eyes also flashed with excitement. She desperately wanted to fight strong opponents. Sparring with Kazuki offered little sense of accomplishment, as his strength was far above hers.

She was already no weaker than a Chunin. Kazuki was simply too monstrous.

"We can try taking on a mission." Kazuki mused for a moment before speaking, "No matter what, we can't hide in the village forever."

"Hmph!" Tsunade snorted softly, then looked at the others.

Seeing Kushina and Rinka's eager expressions, a smile appeared on her lips.

"Alright then, go back and prepare. Tomorrow, we'll leave the village for a mission."

"Really?" Kushina asked expectantly.

Tsunade said with a mischievous look at the three, "I hadn't intended to take you out on missions so soon, but since you all insist, then I'll take you out to see some blood."

"Yay!" Kushina instantly started dancing with joy.

Six months!

Who knew how she had endured these past six months?

Almost every day she had to perform a tiring activity, either exhausting or dirty.

Some missions were both dirty and tiring.

Every day after returning home, she also had to study Sealing Jutsu with Grandma Mito.

Kushina really couldn't take it anymore. Fortunately, those hard days were finally over.

Watching Kushina's reaction, a playful glint flashed in Tsunade's eyes.

Recently, neither inside nor outside the village had been very peaceful. This was a good opportunity to bait some fish.

One thing Tsunade didn't mention was that she was even more sought after in the black market than Kushina and the others.

Their squad going out on a mission was practically like writing "Come and hunt us down" on their team's name.

...

"Monkey, are you really going to let Tsunade's squad go out on a mission?"

Danzo looked at Hiruzen, who was puffing on his pipe, and questioned him with dissatisfaction.

The continuous failures of the Wood Release experiments had made him uncertain, and he once again turned his attention to Kushina.

She was their last resort,bhow could she leave Konoha?

"There are too many rats in the village lately. I need you to do something."

Hiruzen gazed at Danzo and said, "I trust you'll protect them, right, Danzo?"

"You want me to protect them?"

Danzo frowned and said, "I'm very busy, and my people are all investigating intelligence in other countries, especially the Land of Rain."

"Hanzō could declare war on us at any moment. How would I have time for this?"
