Chapter 50: Fame in One Battle! [Seeking Recommendation Tickets]

The young man who was blasted away was utterly confused.

He couldn't understand what was happening.

His first thought was that he'd actually been beaten up by someone? Besides that red-haired kid, who else dared to hit him in the Ninja Academy?

His second thought was that this short-looking guy had such incredible strength?

It wasn't just him who was confused; the onlookers watching Toneri's actions were also stunned.

This person was from the Uchiha Clan!

In Konoha, apart from the fallen Senju Clan, the Uchiha Clan was the greatest power in the entire village, possessing the largest clan compound, like a village within the village. Furthermore, the Uchiha Clan controlled the entire Konoha Police Force, handling all disputes within Konoha.

To most people, these were the manifestations of the Uchiha Clan's power in Konoha.

Not just outsiders, but even most members of the Uchiha Clan believed this.

If you asked who was the most arrogant clan in Konoha, everyone in the village would answer unanimously: the Uchiha!

But if you asked Toneri, he'd say he beat up Uchiha members to show off his handsomeness... cough, his strength, and to demonstrate his teacher Orochimaru's status.

More importantly, how else could he show his loyalty to the few old guys at the top of Konoha?

Others might not know the Uchiha Clan's situation, but he did.

Despite the Uchiha Clan having a large compound located in the center of Konoha and controlling the Konoha Police Force, which seemed like a position of great power, it actually kept them far from the true center of Konoha's power.

At the same time, the Konoha leadership was strongly supporting the Hyuga Clan. When people talked about Konoha's prominent clans, besides the Uchiha Clan, they would also think of another prominent clan: the Hyuga Clan!

Therefore, Toneri wasn't very afraid of the Uchiha Clan. With Orochimaru, Danzo, and Hiruzen Sarutobi behind him, what was there to fear?

They were just a bunch of people with red eyes, and what's more, red eyes that couldn't bloom!

Since he had initiated the attack, he couldn't hold back.

He suddenly exerted force with both legs, moving swiftly to stay beside the Uchiha Clan youth who was flying backward, intending to press his advantage.

However, although the opponent was sent flying by Toneri's punch, it was because he was caught off guard. As a member of the Uchiha Clan, his potential was undeniable, and he was considered a well-known young genius in the Ninja Academy.

He was also a sixth-year student, just not in the same class as Toneri and Kushina.

Mid-air, he twisted his body and launched a spinning kick straight at Toneri's face.

At this moment, the effect of his armor came into play. He crossed his arms to block the spinning kick and taunted, "Hmph, is that all the strength you have? Didn't you eat breakfast?"

Hearing this, the Uchiha Clan youth's eyes widened. He wanted to attack again but found that Toneri had already disappeared from his sight.

Was Toneri the type of person who just spewed trash talk? He wasn't a powerful resident of Zaun!

The taunt just now was meant to attract the opponent's attention and, incidentally, make him fall into a state of anger.

Controlling an opponent's emotions during a fight was his specialty. If you asked Shikaku about it, he'd have plenty to say.

So, where did Toneri go at this moment?

That's right, right behind the opponent!

He crouched down.

He brought his index and middle fingers of both hands together, extending them straight!

Tiger Seal, also known as the Tiger Seal.

The surrounding onlookers who saw Toneri's movement finally reacted.

"This is... No! It's the Tiger Seal! Yoshinari, dodge quickly!" someone exclaimed.

As students nearing graduation from the Ninja Academy, they were quite familiar with the twelve basic Seals of ninjas. Ninjutsu that ended with the Tiger Seal, also known as the Tiger Seal, could very well be a ninjutsu with extremely high explosive power.

Although he didn't know why this kid knew such a ninjutsu, he immediately offered a warning.

Hearing his comrade's shout, Yoshinari Uchiha's expression changed drastically. He flashed to the side, intending to escape, but would Toneri let him off so easily?

"Hmph! Too late! Let me taste my ultimate move... Konoha Secret Technique: Taijutsu Ogi - The Thousand Years of Death!" Toneri's expression turned cold as he shouted.

Just hearing the awesome name, Yoshinari Uchiha was terrified. He immediately channeled all his chakra to his back, hoping to provide some defense.

The surrounding onlookers were also intimidated by the name, and Kushina was no exception.

She knew how hard Toneri had been working lately. Although his overall strength might not be as good as hers, when it came to taijutsu, he was definitely a genuine Genin.

And listen to the name: this was a secret Konoha taijutsu, and it was an Ogi (ultimate technique). Very few ninjutsu and taijutsu ended with the word "Ogi."

Also, listen to the actual name of this taijutsu Ogi: The Thousand Years of Death!

Those hit by this technique would experience pain akin to a thousand years of death!

How domineering!

It was simply the model for all taijutsu names, capable of intimidating many people just by its name.

Some people could already foresee Yoshinari Uchiha's tragic fate. This time, he had truly kicked a steel plate!

Then, a bloody scene unfolded...

As Toneri's tensed body became like a fully drawn bowstring, his muscles exerted force, his hands thrust forward with power, and his body rapidly lunged.

The way the body was operated so coordinately further illustrated the immense power of this Taijutsu!

Hm? Why is the direction a bit off? It seems to be veering downwards a bit?

Could it be that this Taijutsu is too difficult to execute, causing the direction to deviate?

Hmm!

That must be it. Yoshinari Uchiha is truly in for it this time...

Immediately after...

Pfft—

Toneri's finger plunged directly into Yoshinari Uchiha's soft spot on his back, right between his legs... the position where his Chakra was weakest.

For a moment, the entire noisy square at the school entrance fell silent.

Yoshinari Uchiha felt a searing pain, a torment that pierced his very soul.

But clearly, the Thousand Years of Death wasn't over yet. Toneri put more force into his body, launching Yoshinari Uchiha towards the sky.

As the saying goes, Armstrong Jet-Powered Spinning Ride to Heaven...

Kushina: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Their expressions all turned into: d(?д??)

And Yoshinari Uchiha's expression in mid-air was... well, indescribable...

However, it was probably a feeling of ecstasy mixed with agony.

Watching Yoshinari Uchiha fly through the air, Toneri nodded with satisfaction. Although no one taught him the Thousand Years of Death, the Taijutsu itself wasn't difficult to understand.

The weakest point on the opponent's back had no Chakra defense, and the Tiger Seal was the Seal for the strongest Chakra burst. His Chakra reserves were already considerable, and with a sudden burst, it could achieve this effect.

In fact, the more Chakra that erupted, the stronger it was, and the pain the opponent could feel might truly rival the agony of a Thousand Years of Death.

Toneri had completely mastered the profound meaning of the Thousand Years of Death and was just looking for someone to try it out on.

He felt it was time for him to officially claim the title of Konoha's Taijutsu Master.

Turning his head, he looked at the person who had just warned Yoshinari Uchiha.

The person, who had been acting like an arrogant lackey, instinctively clenched his legs when he noticed Toneri's gaze.

It wasn't just him; anyone Toneri's gaze swept over subconsciously clenched their legs.

What does it mean to become famous overnight?!

This is what it means to become famous overnight!

From now on, Toneri's "fearsome reputation" in the Ninja Academy would likely be unmatched.

The light of righteousness shines upon the land! Those who don't want to experience the Taijutsu "pain like Thousand Years of Death" should quickly hand over your recommendation tickets! Otherwise, hmph hmph--

Thanks to the reader, Mahayu, for the reward!

Regarding the new gossip from Qidian, we won't be partaking. After all, it has nothing to do with an author like me, who is in the lower-middle tier. And besides, that gossip isn't ripe yet, let's eat the ripe gossip first!
