Talent Entry Ninja of Konoha

Chapter 191: Stealing the Scroll of Seals



Ryosuke didn't know how many enemies his shadows had killed.

He only knew that the number of shadows he controlled had grown from a dozen to hundreds.

The numerous shadows centered on him, moving within a radius of 300 meters.

As long as they encountered an enemy, the enemy would be killed in an instant.

Few people could block the attack of his shadows.

In fact, resisting the shadow's attack was very simple, just hide your own shadow.

For example, if you are fast, you can avoid the attack of the shadow.

Your shadow moves with you. That means if you move away, your shadow will dodge, so you won't get hurt.

The other way is to run under a bigger shadow. Then your shadow will disappear.

The shadow controlled by Ryosuke can't enter that area, so naturally it can't hurt you.

But these Sunagakure and Otogakure ninjas didn't know this.

This ability of Ryosuke was unknown to them.

Without information in hand, naturally they didn't know how to resist, and were caught off guard.

As soon as he walked out of the arena, Ryosuke met Hiashi with Hanabi.

At this time, Hiashi was fighting against three Sunagakure ninjas on the opposite side.

The strength of these three Sunagakure ninjas was at least Jōnin, and one of them was even an Elite Jōnin, who was only slightly weaker than Hiashi.

One against three, plus protecting a little girl.

For a while, Hiashi fell into a disadvantage.

"It's father!"

Seeing that her father was in danger, Hinata subconsciously wanted to rush ahead to help him.

"Leave it to me."

Ryosuke put his hand on Hinata's shoulder, and then appeared behind the two Sunagakure Jōnins almost instantly.

Before the two Sunagakure Jōnins could react, they were killed by Ryosuke.

"What?!"

The only remaining Elite Jōnin was taken aback by this scene.

But Ryosuke didn't give him a chance.

In the next second, a sword light flashed in front of the Elite Jōnin's eyes.

He subconsciously wanted to resist, but his mind became confused for a moment.

When he recovered, he was already decapitated.

Genjutsu + Swordsmanship!

This was not the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama's dance of the crescent moon, but a sword move created by Ryosuke.

He abandoned the dance of the crescent moon.

This move emphasizes speed and makes the target enter a momentary trance by genjutsu, giving the enemy a fatal blow.

This move was a swordsmanship move created by Ryosuke after he had obtained the talent entry [Shadow Swordsman].

This swordsmanship by itself was enough to be rated as A-rank.

Coupled with the addition of talent entries, even if Hatake Sakumo was reborn and competed with him in purely swordsmanship, he would still lose.

Nowadays, whether it was ninjutsu, taijutsu, genjutsu, bloodline limits, or swordsmanship, Ryosuke was at least Kage-level in all of them.

Most of them were even above Kage-level.

If he used ninjutsu in Sage Mode, it would reach the quasi-Six Paths level.

He had no shortcomings.

Even his weakest aspect was something that most people wouldn't be able to challenge.

"You..."

Hiashi looked at the ease with which the three Sunagakure ninjas were eliminated, and for a while by Ryosuke.

He didn't know what to say. He only felt that most of his life was in vain.

He was even weaker than a 12-year-old kid?

"Wow~! Brother-in-law, you are so amazing!"

Hiashi was so surprised that he couldn't speak, but Hanabi, who was protected by him behind him, yelled out.

Since Hanabi had called him brother-in-law, Ryosuke's affection for her soared.

"You are Hanabi, right? Your sister often mentions you to me. She says that you are really smart." Ryosuke praised Hanabi with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, you are really amazing!"

Hanabi, who was praised, also said with a happy smile.

"It's nothing, it's just that they are too weak." Ryosuke said.

Hiashi: "???"

No, what do you mean kid?

They are too weak?

Then what am I?

The weakest of the weakest?

But Hiashi was definitely not weak.

The reason why he fell into disadvantage just now was purely because he had to protect his young daughter.

If there are no worries, with his quasi-kage-level strength, it is still no problem to kill the three Sand Shinobi with one enemy and three.

"The village is in chaos now, I'll send you back."

Ryosuke didn't notice that he had accidentally hurt Hiashi, his future father-in-law, and in view of the current situation in the village, he proposed to escort them back by himself.

"Yeah!"

Before Hiashi agreed, Hanabi had already clapped her hands happily.

HHiashi, who wanted to be tough, was embarrassed, but he could only nod in agreement.

Ryosuke didn't care either. He was not a good guy in the eyes of this father-in-law anyway.

After all, it would be strange to like the person who had stolen his daughter away.

"Then let's go." Ryosuke said.

The distance from the venue of the third Chūnin exam to the Hyuga clan's place is not very far.

Along the way, Ryosuke cleared the way.

Those Sunagakure and Otogakure ninjas who had entered the village couldn't get close to them at all.

They arrived at the Hyuga clan's land without any danger along the way.

"Ino, you and Karin will stay here at the Hyuga clan for the time being. I will pick you up when things are over." Ryosuke said to Ino.

Now in Konoha, the safest place should be the clan land of the Hyuga clan.

The Hyuga clan was very large.

They had a large number of Chūnins and Jōnins, enough to resist incoming enemies.

In addition, their Byakugan was good at scouting, so there was no need to worry about being caught off guard by Sunagakure and Otogakure ninjas.

Ryosuke would be relieved if Karin and Ino stayed here.

But even if something goes wrong, Ryosuke was prepared.

One of his Shadow Clone was always keeping watch nearby.

If there is any danger, with Ryosuke's speed, he can get here in an instant.

He had already made foolproof arrangements for his mother's safety.

"Ryosuke-kun, won't you stay?"

Hinata and the others looked at Ryosuke worriedly.

"I still have things to deal with. Don't worry, these things can't hurt me at all."

After Ryosuke finished speaking, he nodded to Hiashi at the side, and then disappeared in an instant.

"Okay, don't worry. With this kid's strength, those intruders can't do anything to him."

Although Hiashi didn't like this prospective son-in-law who had embarrassed him, he had to admit that with the strength shown by Ryosuke just now, these ninjas who had invaded Konoha really couldn't do anything to him.

Even if he was ambushed or something, wouldn't it be easy to leave with the Flying Thunder God Technique?

"Ryosuke will be fine!"

Karin looked at Hinata and Ino beside her, and comforted them.

After all, she had Ryosuke destroy the entire Kusagakure with a single ninjutsu.

Those intruders would all be just sending their heads to Ryosuke if they attacked him.

Hokage building.

When Ryosuke escorted Hinata and the others back to the Hyuga clan, one of his Wood Clone appeared here.

Even when the village was invaded, there were still many ninjas guarding the Hokage building.

After all, many of the village's top secrets were hidden here.

Even treasures like the Scroll of Seals was stored here, so it was naturally impossible for them to be left unattended.

The person in charge of guarding the Hokage building was Sarutobi Asuma, the son of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

At this time, Ryosuke's Wood Clone, dressed as an Anbu ninja, sneaked into the Hokage's office silently.

"I wonder if that old fellow Sarutobi Hiruzen put the Scroll of Seals here?"

The Wood Clone went to open the desk drawer.

In the first drawer was a crystal ball.

It was the crystal ball that Sarutobi Hiruzen usually used to peep.

"Rubbish!"

The Wood Clone threw the crystal ball aside and opened the other drawers.

But these drawers were just filled with documents and the like.

"Is it in these cupboards?"

The Wood Clone opened the cabinet door.

As soon as he opened it, he saw a huge scroll sitting in the cabinet.

Is it just put here?

There are no barriers or the like protecting it?

After becoming stunned for a moment, he immediately took the Scroll of Seals out of the cabinet.

As a result, as soon as it was taken out, he discovered that there was a stack of explosive tags connected to the back of the Scroll of Seals.

"I knew it!"

Next second—

Boom!

An explosion shattered the entire cabinet, and also alarmed the ninjas guarding the Hokage building.

A group of figures arrived towards this side.

In the smoke and dust, the Wood Clone caught the Scroll of Seals woth one hand slapped the ground fiercely with the other hand.

Earth release: Antlion Technique!

Asuma and the others who had just rushed into Hokage's office had not had time to see the appearance of the intruder clearly.

The entire Hokage was torn apart and collapsed towards the ground.

"Be careful!"

Asuma shouted loudly.

He rushed out of Hokage's office quickly and landed on the open space outside the Hokage building.

A large piece of land in front of him was covered by the Wood Clone's Earth release, and it tore apart the Hokage building, causing the entire building to sink into the ground.

Asuma watched this scene with a dark face.

Several ninjas appeared around him.

All of them were from the Sarutobi clan, and each of them was at the Jōnin level, and there were even many ninjas with the strength of an Elite Jōnin.

The group looked at Asuma, waiting for his order.

"Find! We must find this intruder!"

Asuma yelled with a dark face.

His father had given him the task of guarding the Hokage building, which was an easy task in itself.

But he ended up seeing an intruder sink the entire Hokage building into the ground.

How would he face his father?

Wouldn't it prove that he has no ability?

Can he only rely on his father as the Hokage to support him?

So, he had to find the intruder and take back what that guy had taken from the Hokage building.

Asuma still didn't know that the Wood Clone had taken the Scroll of Seals away.

Otherwise, he might be even more anxious.

"I saw him, that person is over there!"

Suddenly, a Jōnin noticed a suspicious figure appearing nearby with a huge scroll on their back.

Asuma quickly looked over there, and immediately shouted, "It's him, grab him!"

As soon as he saw the scroll on the man's back, he recognized that it was the Scroll of Seals.

After all, this thing was kept by Sarutobi Hiruzen all year round, and Asuma, as the son of Sarutobi Hiruzen, could read it whenever he wanted.

Other Konoha ninjas need to make great contributions, or have enough talent, to be able to read the Scroll of Seals, and they can only choose one ninjutsu to learn.

But Asuma, as the son of Hokage, could read any kind of ninjutsu in the Scroll of Seals at will.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was good enough to his son. It's just a pity that Asuma didn't live up to his expectations.

Obviously, he had the best resources in the whole of Konoha, but his ability was extremely limited in comparison.

Asuma's rating in Konoha was Elite Jōnin.

But in fact, his real strength was just at the level of a formal Jōnin.

The reason why he became an Elite Jōnin was completely because of Sarutobi Hiruzen's nepotism.

If it wasn't for him being extremely disappointed in his youngest son, Sarutobi Hiruzen would not think about raising his grandson Konohamaru to be the Hokage.

After all, it would be nice to have his son become the Hokage.

There would no need to wait another ten years. At that time, Konoha would still belong to their Sarutobi clan.

But, Asuma was really not capable enough.
