NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6: Kakashi
Muzan is in a state of panic!
Even though it is known that Kakashi's life was not in danger during the Third Ninja War, no one can guarantee the war's outcome.
For a little brat like Kakashi, Muzan will not go easy on him.
"Bam!"
How to relieve anger? Only through violent beating!
He punched Kakashi on the head with his fist. Kakashi screamed in pain on the ground, covered his head, and rushed to Muzan, shouting angrily:
"Brother, why did you hit me suddenly?"
"Do I need a reason to hit you?"
With a raised brow, Muzan stretched out his hand to gesture and then gave Kakashi another punch.
"If you can beat me, you can hit me back!"
"I will fight you, no hesitation!"
In the end, Kakashi surrenders to Muzan's wishes, but he has to take the exam tomorrow and he must pass it perfectly.
"It's really worrying..."
Relying on Kakashi's strength, becoming a genin is inevitable.
The next day, a sensational event happened at the Ninja Academy.
Kakashi applied for early graduation and has been approved.
"Damn Kakashi, he actually applied for early graduation. After I awaken my Sharingan, I must challenge him!"
"It seems that my youth is not burning fiercely enough, Kakashi! I will definitely catch up with you!"
"As expected of Lord Sakumo's child, with such devilish talent!"
Early in the morning, a large number of students came to the training ground behind the academy, all to witness Kakashi's graduation test.
"Kakashi, are you ready for the next battle?"
"You may encounter danger. It's not too late for you to give up now!"
Ordinary students need to take the Three Body Technique test to graduate, but students who graduate early have a special test, which requires them to survive 10 minutes against a chūnin to prove their genin strength.
At this time, Kakashi was ready to go. He had prepared for today's exam for a long time, how could he give up now?
"I'm ready."
Taking out the kunai with both hands, Kakashi stood ready, looking far away at the chūnin approaching him. There was a ferocious scar on the other person's face, and his smile had an unnatural twist.
"Boy, a real ninja battle is not a game played at the Ninja Academy. I will not show mercy in our battle."
In addition to the students present, there was also an old man watching the graduation.
"I didn't expect that the new generation would be led by Kakashi. But who should be his team leader?"
A good young man needs to be absorbed into the Hokage's lineage. Unfortunately, none of his three disciples are suitable to lead apprentices. In addition, there are hostile forces around Konoha, and powerful ninjas all have tasks. Regarding the teacher who leads the team, the Third Hokage needs to think carefully.
Shouya is a chūnin who has performed battlefield missions. He is considered the best among chūnin in terms of combat ability and quality.
It's not easy to survive against him for 10 minutes.
"I didn't expect that bastard Kakashi has already applied for graduation."
Looking at Obito who had depressed look on his face, Muzan looked back and saw that most of the classmates in the class had the same expression.
"Why are you depressed?"
Muzan laughed, of course, this was not to mock them; it was because Kakashi's strength was recognized by everyone.
"In one year, you should graduate. By then you can catch up with Kakashi!"
The shocked Asuma raised his eyebrows slightly, hearing the meaning in the other party's tone.
"Asshole, what do you mean?"
"You'll find out later."
Shouya is already qualified to be promoted to jōnin. For kids still studying at the Ninja Academy, he feels from the bottom of his heart that the battlefield is not suitable for them, so he must give Kakashi a lesson.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."
Three kunai joined together in the air, while Kakashi on the other side fought with shurikens.
He accurately hit the three kunai that were flying towards him.
Taking advantage of the gap between the collisions, Kakashi jumped forward.
"Bam!"
A kick hit Shouya's arm, and the powerful impact made him take a step back.
Kakashi seized the opportunity and launched another counterattack. This move already had the foundation of the Lotus.
Guy outside the arena looked surprised, watching Kakashi's actions and couldn't help but exclaim.
"When did he learn my moves!"
"Kakashi is not an idiot. He often spars with you, so he naturally picked up some habits in his movements, and he is quick to learn."
Muzan looked at the two people on the field with interest. The two consecutive attacks at this time put Shouya at a disadvantage.
"That's enough brat!"
When Kakashi's third kick was about to land, Shouya quickly formed seals with his hands.
"Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu!"
A fireball washed his face, and Kakashi was forced to give up the third attack.
The chakra content of a chūnin was not much, and they relied more on taijutsu. After putting some distance between himself and Kakashi, Shouya pulled out a staff from his back.
Suddenly hitting the ground, a pillar of earth appeared where Kakashi was standing, and Kakashi rushed up.
"Oops, Kakashi is in danger!"
"Is it possible that Kakashi will fail this graduation exam? If you fail, I will never forgive you!"
Looking at Obito and Rin's surprised reactions, Muzan in front of them was lowering his head in thought. This kind of fighting personality was not Kakashi's habit.
So far, Kakashi has only used taijutsu and kunai, not even the Three Body Techniques.
"He will not be defeated that easily. What Kakashi wants is not to last for 10 minutes, but to defeat his opponent."
After Muzan finished speaking, Shouya's attack fell on Kakashi. Just when everyone thought the battle was over, they saw Kakashi in the air turning into smoke.
"What!"
Suddenly, Shouya felt pain in his ankle. He looked down and saw a pair of hands grabbing him.
"Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique!"
He directly dragged Shouya into the ground, leaving only Shouya's head above the ground. Only then did Shouya realize that he had failed because of his carelessness.
At the moment Shouya launched his attack, Kakashi had already reacted and used the Substitution Technique and the dust generated by the opponent's attack to complete a perfect change of position.
The reason why Kakashi didn't use ninjutsu during the battle was firstly to save chakra, and secondly so that Shouya would not know the ninjutsu he was good at.
The ability to master intelligence is also an indispensable part of ninja battles.
Shouya thought that Kakashi was a child and underestimated his opponent, leading to his own downfall.
