Chapter 307
Even the strongest person can crash and burn if they're not careful.
"Yes, what we lack now is real combat experience."
Ringo Ameyuri nodded.
They believe that the Chunin Ninja Exams are a great opportunity for honing their skills.
At this moment, Hizashi Hyuga was also standing in the crowd watching the battle between Akito and Hotaru.
He looked gloomy, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"Missing your son again?" asked Juzo Biwa.
Hizashi Hyuga is the son of Neji Hyuga.
He has been unaware of his son's situation since leaving Konoha.
Upon hearing that Akito wanted Hide to participate in the Chunin Ninja Exams soon, she realized...
He... showed a certain degree of longing.
Just as the group was talking...
Another loud bang echoed across the training ground.
Ying, whose Natural Energy had been shattered, knelt on one knee, panting heavily.
On the other side.
The Akito stood there calmly, as if he hadn't just been fighting.
"Lord Akito... how much power did you use...?" Ying raised her head and asked.
This type of questioning helps determine the difference in ability between the two individuals.
"In terms of Taijutsu alone, it's roughly equivalent to the power of the Fourth Gate of the Eight Gates Released Formation."
The reason it's called "Taijutsu" is...
That's because Ying's weakness lies here.
Based on the Natural Energy output of light, if Ying were to unleash a wave, her attack range could easily surpass that of the Majestic Destroyer Flame, comparable to Jiraiya's Gamabunta "Toad Oil Flame Bullet."
After all, the original purpose of this secret technique was to cause widespread destruction and wipe out villages.
In terms of damage output, or DPS, the concentrated Natural Energy attack is comparable to Crown Prince Naruto's "Super Big Ball Rasengan".
If it spreads out and causes widespread damage, it's roughly equivalent to a "normal Rasengan".
It has a wide attack range and decent destructive power.
Therefore, Ying's weakness should be improving her Taijutsu.
A gun emplacement is a gun emplacement that can stand upright.
Being killed in one blow means there's no point in it.
"Still a long way off..."
Ying was somewhat frustrated.
If his strength is equivalent to the Fourth Gate of the Eight Gates Released Formation, then according to what the master said, he wouldn't be able to defeat powerful figures like the One-Tail Jinchuriki of Sunagakure.
So... is it really okay not to practice the Eight Gates Released Formation?
Ying then thought of the "Dark Chakra Formula" possessed by the Ajisai group.
My goal... has always been this.
If I possessed Dark Chakra...
Ying has been working very hard lately.
However, the gap between them and the Akito is widening.
It's not that she's too weak.
Rather... the strength of the Akito has become increasingly terrifying.
"But that's already pretty impressive, isn't it?"
Ringo Ameyuri said from the side.
"Not to mention that none of us were as good at fighting as her when we were kids... In the entire Amegakure, no... in the Land of Rain, there's probably no child more outstanding than her."
An objective evaluation of Ringo Ameyuri.
It gained unanimous approval from Asuka and others.
On the limits of the "ordinary people, without blood ties" younger generation.
Ying is one of the best among them.
"Since you refuse to accept those with Kekkei Genkai as disciples, isn't it only natural that you choose Ying?"
Ringo Ameyuri added.
During this period of time.
There are many other promising young talents with Kekkei Genkai emerging.
For example... "Swift Release".
Yes, he is a bloodline limit holder just like Ryu back then.
However, these were all ignored by the Akito.
Because the Akito themselves were ordinary people, they also recruited those without blood ties.
Although Akito doesn't discriminate against ninjas with Kekkei Genkai.
Like Pakura... who has already risen to the position of the third-in-command of Amegakure.
Hizashi Hyuga was also entrusted with an important task.
This clearly shows that the Akito were not biased.
However... when it came to accepting disciples, Akito displayed unusual caution.
"Lord Akito..."
Ying raised her head and looked at Akito with a pitiful expression.
She has already tried her best.
But...
Still not meeting the requirements?
"I never said that."
Seeing everyone's concerns, Akito shook his head.
"Ying, from today onwards, you are my disciple. But... can you bear the various hellish hardships that lie ahead?"
"..."
Ying was slightly taken aback.
Immediately, he nodded excitedly.
For her, this was no less than the greatest meaning of her life.
Even if there are mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, I will not stop!
"Good."
The Akito nodded.
With everyone present as witnesses, Ying was accepted as his disciple.
The master-disciple relationship is just the beginning...
232. You... are mine now.
Congratulations!
Congratulations rang out.
Pakura was nowhere to be seen in the crowd.
"She must have sensed the crisis; after all, the theory of bloodline... has its limits."
Ringo Ameyuri shrugged.
During this time, Pakura had been training frantically.
However.
Not all bloodlines can reach the level of the Six Paths.
As one of countless differentiated bloodlines.
The Scorch Release... has already shown its limits.
Even though Pakura was a brilliant and talented person like Minato Namikaze back then.
But when faced with a true cheater...
I still feel somewhat powerless.
As the Akito's power and fame grew, so too did the Ming people's influence increase.
The seed of "ordinary people can overcome the theory of bloodline" has already blossomed and borne fruit in the Land of Rain...
This conclusion and the facts.
It has deeply resonated with the people and influenced countless individuals...
As a result, discrimination against ordinary people based on bloodline no longer exists within Amegakure.
Instead, it has become a kind of "relative equality".
The theory of bloodline.
Just like the Akito in its previous life.
It has become a concept similar to categories like "I'm good at music," "I'm good at cooking," "I'm good at cycling," and so on.
A ninja with the Swift Release ability is simply fast in movement.
A ninja with Steel Release only has high defense.
Have...
Ordinary people are no longer ashamed, and those of noble birth are no longer arrogant.
For the people of the Land of Rain, this is the best of times, but certainly not the worst of times...
For the Akito...
Before completely defeating Crown Prince Naruto.
It cannot be considered a complete success for the revolution.
The road ahead is long.
The shaping and transformation of the Land of Rain is just the beginning...
The crowd dispersed.
Only Ying remained in the training room.
"Ying, are you ready? To receive the Dark Chakra Formula."
The Akito raised his palm, and a dark flame burned in his hand.
Because he needed to perform a spell, Akito approached Ying.
The close observation and contact caused Ying to pause slightly.
She looked up, gazing at the tall, handsome figure before her, her cheeks flushing slightly.
"Yes... sir, no, master!"
"Very good."
