Konoha: Sage Body

"Well~, Aoi did a good job."

Sandaime said appreciatively as he watched Aoi make a move to stop Kirito's attack, the slightest hint of worry that had just arisen immediately dissipated.

Even if Chizuru didn't like him, Chizuru was still an outstanding Konoha young sprout that he couldn't afford to lose.

Then, his gaze tightened as he looked at Kirito in the image in the crystal ball, a pleased expression on his face.

Worthy of being the genius that he and Lord Mito had taken a liking to, at only eight years old, he had developed the Blood Succession Limit Magnet Release that Konoha didn't have, it was truly a heavenly talent.

"In that case, Konoha also has a Magnet Release inheritance."

Sandaime thought cheerfully, then his eyes narrowed slightly as he thought of something interesting.

In the next moment, he immediately spoke, " Come here."

As soon as the words left his mouth, a masked ANBU appeared in front of Sandaime on one knee and respectfully said, "Please command, Sandaime-sama."

"Go get Kirito."

Sandaime ordered.

"Ha."

The ANBU obeyed the order and then made an body-flicker jutsu to leave.

...

"The duel is over, the winner, Kirito Tosaka, are you okay with that, Chizuru."

On the other side, after Mikado Aoi managed to stop Kirito's attack, she immediately announced the result of the sparring match.

Chizuru grunted coldly and nodded in acknowledgement.

Although she was competitive, she wasn't someone who couldn't afford to lose, she knew herself that if she hadn't been rescued by Mikado Wasabi just now, she was afraid that she would have been injured badly, and her loss would have been a nail in the coffin.

""Haha, I'm sorry for taking you by surprise."

Kirito lifted his Ninjutsu, carried the iron rod and came over with a smile, then extended his hand ready to receive the Seal of Reconciliation with Chizuru.

Seeing this, Chizuru reluctantly stretched out two fingers to complete the Seal of Reconciliation with Kirito, then quickly drew back her fingers and gave Kirito a fierce glare.

Today's loss, she will definitely get it back in the future.

Is just a magnet release, Uchiha Chizuru is not afraid of it.

"Today when I go back, I have to cultivate the water attribute chakra nature as soon as possible."

Chizuru quietly made up her mind.

The weakness of the Magnet Release was clear to her, it could be restrained with Water Release, the soaked iron sand would drastically increase the chakra consumption of the Magnet Release ninja.

And she knew Kirito's weaknesses better than that.

After completing the Seal of Reconciliation with Kirito, Chizuru came over to Mikado Aoi and said with a slightly red face, "Thank you, sensei."

Although she didn't have much respect for Mikado Aoi, who was only a chunin, it was a fact that the other party had just saved her, and she was still grateful in her heart.

Hearing Chizuru, who usually treated her badly, express her gratitude, Mikado Aoi instantly felt as happy as drinking a cup of delicious iced drink on a hot day, and her pretty face, which had always remained aloof, couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

"Ah, Ms. Aoi is smiling."

Kawaki, who was at the side, immediately noticed this and exclaimed.

As soon as these words came out, all of them immediately focused their gazes on Mikado Aoi, the usually unsmiling iceberg beauty, exposing a surprising expression, and then talked about it, with some girls who liked to gossip even bursting out with the fact that Mikado Aoi didn't have a boyfriend.

"Ha, really yeah, look at that."

"Teacher really will be beautiful when she smiles, but it's a pity that she's usually always fierce."

"That's right, if teacher often smiles, there will definitely be a lot of people chasing after teacher, right, it wouldn't be so hard to be single now ..."

...

Hearing the students' words, Mikado Aoi's old face reddened and punched Kawaki's head, quickly resuming her iceberg beauty stance, she used her icy eyes to re-quell the murmuring students, and then shouted, "Next group, Hyuga Hanare, Senju Kawaki."

"Hooray, it's finally my turn."

Kawaki, who was originally still popping his head and shouting in pain, immediately rejoiced when he heard this.

He quickly came to the open space used for sparring and said to Kirito, who was walking off the field with fighting spirit, "Kirito, use Magnet Release to fight me later as well."

" Yeah, but wait until you win the fight."

Kirito said with a slight smile.

"Just wait, I'll take care of my opponent soon."

Kawaki said with confidence.

His progress in the past two years is very obvious. Although his winning rate against Kirito and Chizuru is still very low, he has always followed Kirito's footsteps and never fallen behind him.

Relying on the various shadow clone tactics he developed and the many earth and water ninjutsu he mastered, he was already able to fight back and forth with the clan's chunin.

As a result, he was convinced that he was second only to Kirito and Chizuru in terms of strength in the class.

"Don't be careless and gullible, idiot, how many times have I told you."

Kirito immediately reminded Kawaki when he saw him drifting a bit.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Kawaki said perfunctorily before his gaze went to a white-eyed girl with a bandage wrapped around her forehead.

After two years of spending time together, Kawaki certainly knew some information about this white-eyed girl.

Hyuga Hanare, a person from the Hyuga branch family, usually looks submissive to everyone, a pretty looking weak girl, although her theoretical class grades are very good and she has always been the second best in the class, her practical class grades are only ranked at the middle level of the class.

So, it was not that Nawaki was arrogant, but the strength of his opponent this time was not good enough.

Although Kawaki couldn't beat a jonin, he could easily deal with a genin.

Seeing that the reminder was ineffective Kirito stopped advising and turned to leave, then looked towards Hyuga Hanare, who was coming out of the crowd, with a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

He was different from the careless Kawaki, and he knew very well that this very weak looking girl was an unmistakable genius.

How could someone who was able to consistently place in the top three of the class in the first two years of the theory classes offered by Konoha be a simple character.

Unfortunately, ever since the other girl was planted with the curse of the Caged Bird shortly after the start of the school year, her entire personality had become inferior and weak, and she had become very withdrawn, choosing to isolate herself.

However, Kirito knew that the other party's weak exterior hid a strong heart, and had never given up on striving for freedom.

This was evident to him from the fact that the other party had been diligently studying the sealing jutsu.

Curse Seal was originally a sealing jutsu.

Kirito used to often see her studying sealing jutsu on her own in the library and even discussed sealing jutsu with her.

It was only after a while that the other party stopped coming to the library, stopped discussing sealing jutsu with him, and avoided him.

The reason for this, Kirito guessed some, but he could only do nothing about it.

How strong the true strength of a genius who kept working hard to unlock the caged bird was, Kirito couldn't even predict, but Kawaki would definitely suffer a big loss if he was careless and light-hearted.

Hinata Hanare came out of the crowd timidly, and she subconsciously put her head down as she passed Kirito, who was looking at her with a smile.

"Cheer up, Hanare."

Kirito whispered as he brushed past Hinata Hanare.

Hyuga Hanare's eyes widened instantly and a happy smile appeared on her small face, her eyes then became determined and her white eyes opened.

For a moment, Hyuga Hanare's aura changed drastically, the weak girl who was originally submissive in Kawaki's eyes began to become strong.

"Hyuga Hanare, please teach me."

After completing the Seal of Confrontation with Kawaki, Hanare then immediately put up a soft fist starting stance, stared at Kawaki with her opened white eyes, and said seriously.
