The Condition Set by the Waterfall Kage

"The Light of the Shinobi World! It's said he became a Jonin Konoha at the tender age of five!"

Five years old? A five-year-old Jonin? Is Konoha joking? Or are you kidding me?!

"Nobody's joking! A five-year-old Jonin, and his strength is at least at the elite Jonin! This is the youngest Jonin in history! Furthermore, he's the last disciple of the Third Hokage of Konoha! It's said he even possesses the Divine Pull ability!"

"The Divine Pull? What is that?"

"Divine Pull!? What kind of ability is that?" Shiyu was also completely bewildered, and looked at Mei, who also looked helpless.

"It's an incredibly powerful ability to unleash the potential within another person! It's like a divine pull, which is why everyone calls it the Divine Pull Ability!"

"Alright, alright. Shut up." The Jonin from Jonin stopped the discussion and then said, "Mr. Shiyu? How about you help me stir things up? Let me confirm?"

"The power of the Divine Pull is more than just standing up; it's not that simple." Shiyu directly rejected the Jonin's behalf.

"In that case, there's no other way. Everyone must absolutely prevent them from getting close to Lord Takikage!" The Jonin of Takikage Jonin, displaying a shameless attitude.

Shiyu shook her head and said, "Do you want to be our enemies?"

"Our duty is to defend this place; everything else is none of our concern," the Jonin of Jonin said. "Since you are the Light of the Shinobi World, you should be able to defeat us easily, right? Can I see for myself?"

"We don't need to waste time here. Let's try another way in," Ming suggested, since the two of them didn't have any advantage.

"Ming won't waste any time; we have an absolute advantage." Shiyu also appeared calm and composed.

"Even if you're Jonin, you're too arrogant! We are all elite Jonin Takigakure! How can you two kids possibly deal with us?" The Jonin made some simple gestures, and the Takigakure ninja surrounded Shiyu and Mei.

Ming immediately gathered his chakra and asked warily, "It seems we have no choice but to fight!"

Shiyu shook his head and said self-deprecatingly, "It seems that although I am very famous, I have not fought enough ninjas from other countries, and no one knows my actual combat abilities."

Shiyu gently grasped Ming's hand, put it down, and then made a YES gesture.

"What's the meaning?"

"Shiyu, what time is it? Why are you still acting cool!" Ming didn't understand Shiyu meant.

"Who's being cool? I mean, can you count to two for me?" Shiyu said awkwardly.

"Count?" Ming was also very puzzled. "Count to two seconds?"

"Yes, believe me, say it out loud!" Shiyu then clasped his hands together and began to extract chakra.

"One!"

With Shiyu vanished completely, and when he reappeared, the Dragon Fang Blade was already drawn in his hand. It seemed to have been fused with wind-attribute chakra, Shiyu began to swing the Dragon Fang Blade. Shiyu's speed was simply unprecedented.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" The Dragon Fang flashed, Shiyu reappeared, he had already slowly sheathed the Dragon Fang Blade in his hand, but left two inches of it unsheathed.

"Two!" Ming had just reached the second tone.

"Huh? What happened?" Mei was also very puzzled. The Jonin from Jonin were still standing in the same spot, seemingly without any damage.

"This is really interesting! Although you're very fast, it seems your swordsmanship and sword itself aren't very good!" The Jonin laughed as well.

"So the Light of the Shinobi World' is just an empty name? It's our turn now!"

"Hahaha!" The Jonin from Jonin were about to attack Shiyu and Mei.

"It's over." Mei was also somewhat desperate. Surrounded by so many elite Jonin, it seemed that Shiyu and he were doomed.

But just then, Shiyu spoke up, "Let's go see Takikage."

"What?" Mei looked at Shiyu with great confusion, and then heard a "whoosh" Shiyu completely sheathed the Dragon Fang Blade in his hand.

"No, impossible." The Jonin Takigakure collapsed to the ground in disbelief, his entire body paralyzed and unable to move. The other Jonin also collapsed at the same time; they were all still alive, but unable to move.

Ming was also completely shocked.

"What's going on!? Why are they like this? Did you just... snap them with your weapon?" Ming asked, both surprised and puzzled.

"That's right, my blade just severed the meridians in their limbs. The reason they can still laugh and joke is because my blade struck too fast."

"Because the swordsmanship is extremely fast, the enemy won't feel it for several seconds after the strike, and by the time they do, we've already moved far away," Shiyu explained simply.

"Two seconds. You Jonin dozens of elite Jonin with consecutive Body Flicker Technique and sword techniques within two seconds? I never imagined you were this strong, Shiyu."

Ming was somewhat dumbfounded; compared to Shiyu, he really was nothing.

"Don't underestimate yourself. You're very strong. Actually, they weren't elite Jonin. They were just barely Jonin. And the reason I defeated them just now was because of your help."

"Me? What did I do to help you?" Ming asked.

"You counted the seconds for me, which gave me a rough idea of my current strength," Shiyu said.

Ming thought to himself, somewhat speechlessly, "This guy has absolutely no knack for conversation, and it's a little awkward!"

After easily dispatching the guards under Takigakure's command, Shiyu naturally entered the area where Takikage was located and saw him Takikage heavily.

Takikage was an old man, and it was clear that he was physically exhausted at this moment.

"You? You're Konoha Ninja? What are you doing here? I should have told you I wasn't feeling well."

"Where are the guards?" Takikage in pain, clearly seriously injured.

However, the guards had no way of getting in.

"Your injuries seem quite severe? Your body also appears to be paralyzed? Is it because of the Seven-Tails' Scale Powder Concealment Technique? It seems the Seven-Tails has gone berserk?" Shiyu quickly realized the problem.

Takikage was also taken aback. "Who are you?! How do you know so much?"

"I am Konoha Ninja, Uchiha Shigure. I came here to investigate the location of the underground gold exchange, hoping to find out if you have the information I need. Forcibly entering this place was a last resort," Shiyu quickly explained.

"I see. So you are the last disciple of the Third Hokage. Sarutobi seems there is still a chance. I do have some information about the underground gold exchange."

"Do you mean you want me to help you suppress the rampaging Seven-Tails?" Shiyu immediately understood.

"Haha! What a clever fellow!"
