Cautious Brave Archery

"Wearing such flashy battle suits on the battlefield is a death wish!"

Pursing his lips in displeasure, Hiashi Hyuga, despite his own envy for such cool battle suits, strongly disagreed.

The more concealed a ninja's combat, the better. Especially on the battlefield, wearing such gaudy and eye-catching battle suits would definitely make them a target for countless enemies, making it difficult to survive.

Those good-looking toys could only be worn within the village; they were useless otherwise.

In his opinion, Shimura Kentei was a complete spendthrift. He couldn't understand why the Shimura Clan would allow that guy to spend a fortune building such a flashy but impractical battle suit.

"Father, is it really okay to entrust Suzune to Senior Tsunade?"

Hyuga Hizashi, standing nearby, looked worried. After all, Hyuga Suzune was the granddaughter of the Great Elder of the Main Family and a member of the Main Family. Once she left the village on a mission, she would inevitably be targeted by enemies.

"Hizashi, you should spend more time with Suzune from now on. If you want to secure your position as the head of the Main Family in the future, you must gain the support of the Great Elder. Suzune is the key to winning over the Great Elder's faction."

Ignoring his second son Hyuga Hizashi's question, Tokugawa Hyuga indifferently instructed his eldest son, Hiashi Hyuga.

He had already decided that Hyuga Suzune would be his eldest son's future wife. Only by doing so could he gain the Great Elder's support and allow his eldest son to firmly hold the position of family head.

"Yes, Father. I will take good care of Sister Suzune from now on!"

Nodding in agreement, Hiashi Hyuga stared intently at Hyuga Suzune on the training ground, very satisfied with his fiancée.

Although her personality was a bit gentle and introverted, this was perfect for a wife. He didn't like women with strong personalities.

Meanwhile, Hyuga Hizashi clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves, filled with resentment.

His father knew he liked Suzune, yet he introduced her to his elder brother.

Was it just because he was born a few minutes later?

Not to mention the situation with the Hyuga clan, Tsunade on the training ground stretched her limbs, preparing to begin the assessment of that kid.

"You have ten minutes to discuss tactics. I'll make my move in ten minutes. Remember to attack with the mindset of killing me. I won't hold back."

Instructing Senju Nawaki and Hyuga Suzune behind her, Tsunade Hime crossed her arms, further intensifying the ferocious and terrifying pressure emanating from the foremost of the Seven Deadly Weapons she possessed.

The two youngsters behind her said nothing and quickly rushed towards Shimura Kentei on the opposite side.

"My teammate is you?"

Looking at the rapidly approaching Senju Nawaki, Shimura Kentei felt an urge to switch teammates. Senju Nawaki's performance yesterday had been too poor.

That little loli from the Hyuga clan was fine, but this Senju Nawaki was really not good enough!

"You bastard, I was just careless yesterday!"

The undisguised contempt made Senju Nawaki, who was running over, jump with anger. If he hadn't known he couldn't beat this guy, he would have definitely let him know why the flowers were so red.

"Even if you weren't careless, could you block one of my punches!"

Glancing over, before Senju Nawaki could speak, Shimura Kentei turned his attention to Hyuga Suzune on the other side.

"Can your Byakugan do X-ray vision now? What's the range? If it's the ground, how deep can you see?"

He needed the assistance of the Hyuga's Byakugan. If this girl's Byakugan had developed well, it would reduce quite a bit of pressure.

"I... I can see within a range of thirty meters. If it's underground, I can see five meters deep."

Hyuga Suzune replied, sounding a little nervous.

"Alright, then you keep a close eye on Teacher Tsunade. Whether it's with Clone Jutsu or any other means, keep a close eye on her, especially don't let her use Earth Style Ninjutsu to sneak up from underground."

"Yes, Kentei-kun, I'll keep a close eye on Teacher Tsunade!"

Quickly agreeing, Hyuga Suzune didn't object to Shimura Kentei's arrangements. She knew very well that her own strength was no match for Teacher Tsunade. It was good enough to provide assistance with her Byakugan.

"Hey, you haven't told me my mission yet!"

Seeing that Shimura Kentei had stopped talking, Senju Nawaki became unhappy.

Although he didn't want to admit it, this guy was indeed stronger than him, and much stronger. Obeying the arrangements of the strong was a major rule for ninjas.

It was just that why wasn't this guy arranging a combat mission for him, Nawaki the Great?

"What do you say you can do?"

Glancing over, Shimura Kentei wasn't looking down on this guy this time, but he genuinely didn't know how to arrange for this kid.

Based on yesterday's situation, this kid didn't seem to know much Ninjutsu. Although his physical fitness was good, it was useless against that violent woman Tsunade. He was no different from an ordinary person, easily killed with one punch.

Without powerful Ninjutsu, his physical fitness and Taijutsu were also crushed by Tsunade. Most importantly, Tsunade was very familiar with this kid and understood all his weaknesses. If he were to go up, it would just be sending him to his death.

"I..."

He opened his mouth indignantly but couldn't say anything. After thinking about it carefully, he realized he really couldn't do anything against that older sister.

Although he had practiced Taijutsu diligently, his Taijutsu skills were not even worthy of carrying her shoes compared to that violent older sister.

This made him feel even more gloomy, and he squatted down, drawing circles on the ground.

"Tell me about your sister's information. This is the only chance you have to show your value in this battle!"

Looking at the fierce opponent opposite him, who was conserving energy and showing a ferocious expression, Shimura Kentei asked.

Although he had undergone targeted training and made many arrangements, he was still quite apprehensive about Tsunade.

That woman was not easy to deal with!

After a moment of silence, Senju Nawaki felt this was indeed an opportunity.

Although he really disliked that bastard, compared to the consequences of failing this assessment, it was better to let that bastard lead them to pass.

"My sister likes drinking and gambling, has a bad temper, and likes to hit people. That's why she's this old and still doesn't have a boyfriend. Grandma Mito has been very worried about it..."

Senju Nawaki threw caution to the wind and revealed detailed information about his sister, but this information made Shimura Kentei glance over.

Young man, are you serious?

"Bang!"

Before Senju Nawaki could finish speaking, a muffled sound was heard. Looking up, he saw the ground beneath Tsunade Hime's feet shatter, and the ferocity in her eyes intensified.

However, this ferocity was no longer aimed at Shimura Kentei, but at Senju Nawaki, who had apparently overheard his words.

The ferocity from his own sister made Senju Nawaki's heart skip a beat, and his small face instantly turned as pale as paper.

"Get to the point, don't babble about useless things!"

Rubbing his forehead, Shimura Kentei felt that this teammate's brain was definitely flawed, and life would be difficult from now on.

"Gulp!"

Swallowing hard, Senju Nawaki quickly hid behind Shimura Kentei before thinking and continuing, "My sister seems to be cultivating the Yin Seal under Grandma Mito recently, so she can't use much chakra. Yesterday, after hearing about your Battle Suit from Uncle Orangeswater, I went to the clan's treasury. I don't know what I took."

"She's cultivating the Yin Seal!"

With a gleam in his eyes, Shimura Kentei realized this was a good opportunity.

Cultivating the Yin Seal, especially the initial stage, requires a large amount of chakra to be infused internally, which greatly reduces one's combat power.

One only needed to look at Sakura's state when she was cultivating the Yin Seal in the original work to understand this. Although Tsunade's strength was greater than Sakura's at that time in the original work, the chakra required for cultivating the Yin Seal would be even more.

Now, she definitely wouldn't have much chakra at her disposal, making it impossible for her to unleash Quasi-Kage Level combat power.

This was a very important piece of information and great news.

As for her going to the Senju Clan's treasury, it was certainly to select weapons and ninja tools to counter his Battle Suit, which was within his expectations.

"If your sister creates clones later, you deal with them. Within ten meters, I will assist you with Chakra Threads."

After thinking, Shimura Kentei assigned Senju Nawaki a task.

Unlike yesterday's act, today was a real battle. In the future, Senju Nawaki would also be his teammate, so there was no need to make their relationship too strained. It was necessary to let him perform well in this squad assessment battle.

"I can handle one clone!"

Puffing out his chest confidently, Senju Nawaki stated that he could handle this task.

He indeed couldn't deal with his own sister, but if it was just a clone, it wouldn't be a problem.

"Kid, I won't hold back!"

Ten minutes later, Tsunade didn't waste any words. She used the Body Flicker Technique to charge forward rapidly. At the same time, Shimura Kentei's reaction was not slow. He picked up the prepared golden Battle Bow, drew it, and nocked an arrow.

"Whoosh!"

The steel arrow shot out with a piercing whistle, its speed extremely fast, carrying an astonishing impact force.

"Clang!"

Out of curiosity, Tsunade did not dodge. She met the arrow with a Kunai, and the immense force made her rapidly charging body pause.

And it was this pause that gave Shimura Kentei an opportunity. He used Chakra Threads to retrieve arrows from the quiver one after another, his arm continuously drawing the bow. He could shoot three arrows almost every second, practically transforming into a human machine gun.

To compensate for his lack of long-range attack methods due to not knowing Ninjutsu, he had been practicing archery diligently for the past few years. Coupled with his developed dynamic vision, he was a hundred percent accurate within a hundred meters, especially in terms of shooting speed, which was astonishing.

Although he couldn't reach the shooting speed of hundreds of rounds per second like that cautious brave hero, he was not weak either.

"This lecherous brat!"

Muttering a curse, Tsunade could only wave her Kunai with both hands to block the incoming arrows.

Shimura Kentei's shooting frequency was too fast, making it impossible for her to use the Body Flicker Technique to charge forward quickly. She could only rely on her own speed to dodge.

Suddenly, an arrow was dodged by Tsunade as she sidestepped. It flew out rapidly and shot towards the observation area of the second-year elite class students.

The jonin in charge quickly took out a Kunai to intercept, but the immense force carried by the arrow pushed his entire body away, knocking him back. While still in mid-air, he spat out a mouthful of blood, which splattered onto many students.

"I feel like this place might not be very safe!"

Wiping the blood from his cheek, Shikaku Nara said in horror. Inoichi Yamanaka and Choza Akimichi beside him nodded in agreement.

They knew that their jonin instructor was an elite jonin. Although he was caught off guard just now, being directly hit by an arrow and spitting blood was excessive. This showed how ferocious the force carried by those arrows was.

If they were to be hit by one of those arrows, they would definitely die.

Fortunately, Anbu ninjas quickly arrived using the Body Flicker Technique to provide protection for the students of each year's elite class.

This battle continued for half a minute. Tsunade suddenly retreated and raised her hand to form hand seals.

"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Ten figures appeared beside her and quickly dispersed, surrounding the three of them. Then, holding Kunai, they charged forward rapidly. As for her main body, she remained in place and raised her hand to form hand seals again.

"Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!"

A dragon's head made of flames rushed out, and the scorching heat caused the surrounding air to distort violently.

Shimura Kentei glanced at the Shadow Clones rapidly charging at him from the surroundings and instructed the two behind him.

"You two, deal with the two Shadow Clones behind us. Don't stray more than ten meters from me."

Senju Nawaki and the other didn't say a word, each gripping a kunai as they faced the Tsunade Shadow Clones charging from behind.

As for Shimura Kentei, he once again drew his bow and nocked an arrow, firing at the eight Shadow Clones to his sides and front. His gaze remained fixed on the fire dragon ahead and the figure behind it.

There was no way to block fire ninjutsu with a bow and arrow; he could only deal with it once it got closer.

When the fire dragon came within one meter of him, Shimura Kentei used Chakra Threads to control the left wing behind him, fanning it out. With the principle of leverage, a force of three tons erupted. Combined with the influence of the Sealing Crystal, he forcefully extinguished that Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique.

As the flames dissipated, Shimura Kentei continued to stare intently at Tsunade opposite him. However, he saw a hint of a playful smile curve her lips. Immediately after, her figure exploded into a puff of mist and dispersed.
