Battle Power Test

Nick Fury nodded upon hearing the question posed by Hit.

This person who introduced Yakushi Kabuto to S.H.I.E.L.D..'s Rules and operating procedures is extremely important. In fact, such a person has groundbreaking significance for how S.H.I.E.L.D.. will recruit ninjas in the future.

Nick Fury pondered for a moment, and before Yakushi Kabuto arrived at the sparring area, he asked, "What are your thoughts?"

Hit thought for a moment, then said, "He needs a disciplined supervisor."

"I think Agent Grant Ward is pretty good; he's a very disciplined agent."

Hill, standing nearby, nodded and said, "Agent Grant Ward is a Level 6 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.., with outstanding combat skills. He is the strongest combat agent after Romanoff."

"However, his interpersonal skills are extremely poor, and I don't think he's suitable to be a ninja supervisor."

"After all, no matter how strong his fighting ability is, it can't surpass that of a ninja. I think we need to assign him a special agent with excellent interpersonal skills."

"This way, they can more quickly accept S.H.I.E.L.D.. and integrate into our organization."

When Hill expressed differing opinions about the personnel he had proposed, Sitwell didn't seem to care. He picked up his coffee cup, took a sip, and then looked at the other man.

"Does Agent Hill have any recommendations?"

Hill glanced at Sitwell, then said to Nick Fury, "In terms of interpersonal skills, I think Agent Coulson is the best in our department. What do you think, Director?"

Upon hearing Hill mention his subordinate Coulson, Nick Fury nodded in agreement. "Indeed, Coulson excels at handling interpersonal relationships."

"However, Coulson is currently mainly responsible for liaison work with the ninjas, so he may not be able to act as a supervisor."

"After all, it's not very appropriate to bring ninjas on such a mission directly."

"As for the regulators of Yakushi Kabuto, I'll think about that some more."

As Nick Fury spoke, Yakushi Kabuto appeared in the sparring arena.

The three stopped their discussion and began watching the electronic screen in front of them, waiting for the two to spar.

······

At this moment, the agent brought Yakushi Kabuto to the sparring arena. As soon as Yakushi Kabuto entered the arena, he saw Barton standing on the opposite side.

"Before you stands Barton, a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent known as Hawkeye. He will be in charge of your combat assessment today."

Yakushi Kabuto glanced at the empty scene except for Barton, and said to the agent beside him, "I understand."

Seeing that the Yakushi Kabuto in understanding, the agent didn't linger in the room and immediately turned and ran out.

At this moment, only Yakushi Kabuto and Barton were in the entire venue.

The two stood at opposite corners of the venue, more than sixty meters apart.

Barton looked at Yakushi Kabuto in front of him, and saw that the other person's young face seemed to be that of a naive child.

"I will now be in charge of testing your combat skills. Are you ready?"

"Ready!"

"Start!"

At Barton's command to begin, Barton drew his Bow and Arrow from behind him and immediately nocked and shot.

A Secondary Adamantium- plated arrow was launched by Barton with lightning speed.

"Whoosh!"

However, Barton's body had been enhanced, making him even stronger, and the arrows he fired were faster than bullets.

Yakushi Kabuto watched the incoming arrows but made no attempt to dodge; he simply stood still.

If Barton hadn't known the ninja's strength, he would have thought the other party was just terrified.

Yakushi Kabuto casually took a Kunai from his Ninja Tool Pouch and slashed directly at the arrowhead.

However, the instant the Kunai and the arrow made contact, Yakushi Kabuto sensed something was wrong.

"Clang!"

With a crisp clang, the Kunai in Yakushi Kabuto's hand snapped in two, but the arrow also changed direction due to the impact, passing right past his ear.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow, which had been deflected, struck the wall directly, embedding itself completely at the base and leaving only a hole.

Looking at the broken Kunai in his hand, Yakushi Kabuto immediately realized that the material the other party used to forge the arrow was probably not simple; it might be similar to the Adamantium he had obtained, or a similar material.

Yakushi Kabuto threw down the broken Kunai in his hand, took out the adamantium-forged Kunai from his Adamantium Ninja Tool Pouch, grabbed it in his right hand, and assumed an attacking stance.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Hawkeye, after firing a probing arrow, saw that the opponent was ready to fight again, so he no longer held back.

Barton pressed a button on the bow, the quiver behind him spun, and three arrows immediately shot up.

Barton drew all three arrows, Bow and Arrow them, and immediately aimed at Yakushi Kabuto.

"Triple Star Shot!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The three arrows, like three shooting stars, flew towards Yakushi Kabuto one after another.

Because of the extremely close distance, Barton's three arrows, amplified by his power, broke the sound barrier.

Barton, however, held nothing back, unleashing his full power. With the aid of a specially made bowstring, the arrow he fired even produced a sonic boom.

Yakushi Kabuto held Kunai made of Adamantium, and poured his Chakra into it, instantly transforming it into a short sword.

Despite the incoming arrows, Yakushi Kabuto did not move an inch, Kunai.

"Boom!"

A blade of light flew out and collided directly with the first arrow.

The blade and the arrow collided, and the arrow was immediately blasted upwards, spinning before falling to the ground nearby.

However, although Yakushi Kabuto's sword strike dealt with the first arrow, a second arrow had already appeared before them.

Yakushi Kabuto swung his Kunai short sword and slashed directly at the target, the arrow and Kunai making a metallic clanging sound.

Kabuto felt the force of the arrow coming at him, but he was still Yakushi Kabuto. Facing the third arrow, Yakushi Kabuto prepared to use the same trick again and try to knock his opponent away.

Seeing Yakushi Kabuto's actions, Barton's lips curled up slightly.

But at the instant the Kunai and the arrow made contact, a red light suddenly flashed at the arrowhead, and the next second...

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sent Yakushi Kabuto flying.

However, these were the three arrows used by Barton, two of which were crafted by the Secondary Adamantium, and the third was Explosive Arrowhead.

The sudden explosion caught Yakushi Kabuto off guard.
