That Man Has Arrived

Given the urgency, if he didn't act now, Anko would likely die.

Orochimaru's newly taken disciple, killed before even getting a chance to go to battle, that would be a disgrace for all of Konoha Village. If anything happened to Anko, putting everything else aside, Orochimaru wouldn't let him off the hook.

"You really know how to cause me trouble..."

Gen'ichi shook his head. He did remember that during the Chunin Exams in the original story, Anko had cut the Prince and stuck her tongue out to lick the blood from his face.

He didn't expect this quirk to show hints of itself already?

Gen'ichi was forced to act.

Nuclear Release: Impurity Absorption Technique!

In an instant, a large amount of nuclear radiation within Anko's body was completely absorbed by Gen'ichi inaudibly, in a way invisible to the naked eye.

This technique was a ninjutsu for controlling nuclear radiation that Gen'ichi had mastered over years of integrating nuclear radiation.

After the last trace of radiation was absorbed by Gen'ichi.

Anko, although severely weakened, especially with a large number of oral cells necrotic and requiring a long time to recover, could at least mostly remain normal.

Aside from her deathly pale face and profuse sweating.

"What did you do?"

Anko turned her head with difficulty, feeling the rapid improvement of her condition within her body, her face full of astonishment.

She was saved.

"It's just a technique of mine, don't mind it..." Gen'ichi stood up, but still dragged Anko with one hand, walking step by step towards the edge of the arena.

How could she not mind? This whole thing was way too weird!

Anko was furiously complaining internally, feeling incredibly depressed at the same time. As a disciple of Lord Orochimaru, she was actually taken down by a single mouthful of blood!

"I'm really an idiot, I really am. I lost without even using the Hidden Shadow Snake Hands that my teacher taught me..." Anko's eyes filled with tears, her confidence shattered.

"Anko, you should look on the bright side. For example, what if you couldn't even successfully use the Hidden Shadow Snake Hands technique at all?"

Gen'ichi kindly reminded her.

Anko flew into a rage: "Gen'ichi, you bastard!!"

The next moment, she was kicked clean out of the arena by Gen'ichi, landing with a thud.

The decisiveness of his action was exactly like a scumbag.

She lost.

A disciple of the Sannin, lost to an underachiever.

However, at this point, it didn't matter anymore.

After controlling nuclear radiation, developing Nuclear Release, and initially establishing a stable connection with the big guy inside him, Gen'ichi no longer needed to hide and be cautious like before.

Countless gasps of astonishment rose up, everyone stared fixedly at Gen'ichi, their faces showing disbelief.

"Impossible, Gen'ichi actually beat a disciple of the Sannin?!"

A loud shout drowned out everyone else.

The guy wearing goggles on his head had a face full of strong unwillingness.

Hmm, the dead last in the entire school, Obito Uchiha.

"He was clearly, he was clearly at the same level as me, why could he beat Anko... How could this happen!"

Obito was completely stunned, clenching his teeth tightly. That huge disparity made it impossible for him to accept.

Why on earth? He hadn't understood the entire process at all!

The dead last of yesterday, actually transformed and made a spectacular turnaround? After the tide went out, was he, Obito, the only clown left behind?!

Obito clenched his fists tightly, trembling all over from excessive excitement.

"As expected of Gen'ichi-san, that's the power of youth!!" In the distance, Might Guy, who was maintaining order in the arena as a genin, looked incredibly excited.

Not only Obito didn't understand, but others didn't understand either.

"He didn't give an antidote, didn't use medical ninjutsu, yet he removed the poison. What was going on with this poison...? And it was actually present in his blood."

"Could it be that Gen'ichi had planned it beforehand and deliberately tampered with his own face?"

The official ninjas watching the match were deep in thought.

At this moment, Shibi Aburame pushed up his sunglasses, a glint of light reflecting off the black lenses: "Not only that, aside from the poison itself, this child's taijutsu is also astonishing."

Being able to take a leg whip from Anko head-on without budging... This level of physical strength far exceeded the average standard for his age group. Furthermore, the angle and speed of his strike to knock down the enraged Anko were also unusual.

Peculiar blood poison, wrapped in bandages year-round, lazy and disliking movement, yet possessing a formidable body. Combining this information... So that's it.

"It's some kind of secret technique, or perhaps a Kekkei Genkai."

Shibi Aburame said.

Many people looked enlightened and nodded repeatedly.

That made sense.

"A secret technique related to poisonous blood, the closest thing would be the Salamander Poison wielded by Hanzo of Amegakure, but there's a fundamental difference between the two. This is more like some unknown Kekkei Genkai."

An Anbu member said.

Shibi nodded slightly. His face, hidden beneath his hood and sunglasses, showed no hint of emotional fluctuation.

He said, "Originally, I intended to observe Anko, but I didn't expect such a pleasant surprise... I will report this to Lord Hokage myself."

After speaking, Shibi left the arena directly. There was no longer any need to watch the remaining matches.

He had already obtained valuable information. Besides the genius Kakashi, this year's students had produced many reliable individuals, capable enough to bear some responsibility.

Gen'ichi Shiranui, in particular, was the biggest surprise.

Hokage Tower.

"You don't need to say anything, I've already seen it. Gen'ichi Shiranui, an unknown Kekkei Genkai, truly an interesting child."

The Third Hokage stopped Shibi mid-sentence, puffing on his pipe and continuously flipping through the documents in his hands.

This was all the information about Gen'ichi, from his birth until now, including details about his parents and grandparents.

However, after flipping through them for a while, the Third Hokage couldn't find any clues.

"It's very strange. The Shiranui clan has never seemed to awaken a similar Kekkei Genkai before."

The Third Hokage stroked his chin, very interested.

Now, the question was the upper limit of this Kekkei Genkai.

If it was like the Clear Release Kekkei Genkai that child Gekko Hayate awakened, that would be the end of it. Clear Release had the ability to turn invisible and erase one's own presence, hailed as the most incredible invisibility technique, but it turned out that this Kekkei Genkai only worked when the user was still; they became visible the moment they moved...

It was simply...

Gekko Hayate's body had also been worn down by this Kekkei Genkai, leaving him sickly and practically ending any possibility of further developing Clear Release.

At this moment, a gloomy voice was heard.

"Hiruzen, I'm about to head to the battlefield, and I need a few capable new generation ninja."

A gloomy-faced individual walked into the room.

Here he comes, here he comes, that legendary man has arrived. He might be late, but he's never absent.

After all, he was the one who had asked for who knows how many thousands of protagonists, only to be rejected thousands of times by the Third Hokage.

Danzo Shimura!
