In Konoha, My Attributes Double Every Day!

The one who was late was Hankuang, so why are you calling me childish?

Shouldn't you be saying that to Hankuang?

Faced with Obito, who was practically exploding, Kakashi didn't even glance at him, remaining as aloof as ever.

"Kakashi! I've put up with you long enough, I challenge you to a duel!"

"Ahem~~"

Hankuang coughed at just the right moment, offering a reminder.

"Forget it, I'll let you off the hook today!" Obito, catching the signal, found himself another excuse to back down.

In the middle of the field.

Minato Namikaze held his forehead, his head buzzing.

He could see it now—the team needed a mediator, and that person was Hankuang.

Without him, Team 9 probably wouldn't last long before disbanding.

With the farce over, Minato began announcing today's mission.

"Today's only mission is for each of you to demonstrate your taijutsu and ninjutsu!"

"Only by understanding each other can you coordinate more effectively."

"This is crucial for when you eventually go to the battlefield!"

Having made that point, Minato looked at Kakashi and gave a slight nod.

After all, Kakashi was the acknowledged genius; starting with him would stir the fighting spirit of the others.

Under everyone's gaze.

Kakashi stepped out of formation.

Beneath his silver hair, his face was stern as he slowly raised his right hand.

"Sword Technique!"

As those two words left his mouth, the short sword on his back was already in his hand.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, his figure vanished, reappearing several meters away.

A tree trunk slid apart, cleanly severed by the short sword.

The cross-section was pitch black.

By the time Kakashi returned to the formation, Obito's eyes were wide.

Nohara Rin's face was full of admiration.

Hankuang yawned.

"That's it? What about ninjutsu?" Obito asked, confused.

Weren't they supposed to demonstrate taijutsu and ninjutsu? Why did Kakashi only show off his Wood-Chopping Sword Style? What about the other two?

"That wasn't just a sword technique—it also had Lightning Release applied to it!"

Minato couldn't stand it anymore and corrected him.

To avoid another farce, he directly signaled Obito to demonstrate.

Compared to Kakashi's brief single slash, Obito's display was much flashier.

He first went through a set of Uchiha Taijutsu, then began forming hand seals and spat out a small fireball.

Hankuang estimated its diameter—it was a respectable thirty centimeters.

Next was Nohara Rin, who threw a kunai and hit a tree three meters away with perfect accuracy.

Finally.

It was Hankuang's turn.

Under the collective gaze of the four.

Hankuang leisurely stepped out of formation, tilted his head, and thought for a moment.

"Taijutsu, hmm..."

"Ninjutsu, hmm..."

"Demonstration complete!"

With that.

He stepped back into formation.

The four of them stood there, dumbfounded.

Chapter 6: Because of Hankuang, Minato Is Forced to Develop a New Ninjutsu!

Hankuang's demonstration redefined the term 'Dead Last' and pushed it to a whole new level.

"This... this is way too embarrassing!" Obito covered his face, unable to bear watching.

The teacher asked them to demonstrate strength, not text, for crying out loud.

"He's definitely going to get punished, right?" Rin thought to herself.

She could kind of understand why Hankuang did this.

After all, Hankuang didn't know any taijutsu or ninjutsu at all, so that's why he did this, right?

"What a talent!"

Even Kakashi, who was always aloof, couldn't help but comment.

Clearly, this was a backhanded compliment.

In the middle of the field.

Minato Namikaze took a deep breath, trying hard to keep his composure.

As a jonin, what big scenes hadn't he seen?

But he almost—

Almost got broken by this student, Hankuang.

"Hankuang, has your kunai throwing improved?" Minato tried to salvage the situation.

"Oh, I'm not great with directions." Hankuang replied seriously.

"And your Three Body Technique?"

"I've been working hard on it, but I still haven't learned it."

"Then what have you mastered since graduating from the academy?"

"Hmm..."

Hankuang thought for a moment, 'hmm'-ing for a while, but nothing came out.

"I refuse to believe this."

Minato wouldn't accept it.

He figured, even if someone was the Dead Last, they couldn't have zero redeeming qualities, right?

If he could just grab onto one thing and encourage it, even the Dead Last could be filled with fighting spirit.

With that thought, a Chakra Sensing Paper appeared in his hand.

"Here, let's test your chakra nature."

"Oh."

Taking the sensing paper, Hankuang gathered his chakra and channeled it into the paper.

Then.

The Chakra Sensing Paper showed no reaction at all.

"Huh?"

Seeing this, Minato was dumbfounded.

No nature?

This!

No wonder.

No wonder Hankuang couldn't learn the Three Body Technique.

Chakra nature was crucial for a ninja. Chakra without a nature meant you couldn't practice any ninjutsu at all.

Because the ninjutsu of the Ninja World were basically divided into five major categories.
