Yuki Yuichi and Yuhi Kurenai were thinking the same thing.

Looks like he was about to get beaten up.

Still, that was a good thing.

Yuhi Shinku might take the opportunity to teach him a lesson, but he would genuinely teach him as well.

After dinner, Yuki Yuichi and Yuhi Shinku stood in the courtyard.

Yuki Yuichi held a kunai in his hand, while Yuhi Shinku was empty-handed.

"As long as you can blow up my Shadow Clone, you'll pass!" Yuhi Shinku's voice came from nearby.

The courtyard was separated from the house by only a pane of glass, and Yuhi Shinku and Yuhi Kurenai stood there.

(It was similar to Nobita Nobi's yard, except there was no laundry hanging out.)

The one facing Yuki Yuichi was merely his Shadow Clone.

Even as he looked at Yuhi Shinku's Shadow Clone, Yuki Yuichi did not let down his guard.

No matter what, this was still a jōnin's clone. It was not someone he could defeat.

Unless he used traps or launched a surprise attack with Chidori.

"Come on!"

The Shadow Clone possessed Yuhi Shinku's personality and had none of his restraints. Its hostility toward Yuki Yuichi was plain to see.

"Watch me, Crow Sits on a Plane!"

With that, Yuki Yuichi charged straight ahead, gripping the kunai in both hands as he rushed directly at the Shadow Clone.

Seeing this from the side, Yuhi Shinku shook his head.

Charging out so foolishly—wasn't that just seeking death?

Sure enough, upon seeing Yuki Yuichi's movements, the Shadow Clone smiled and charged forward as well, both hands held behind its back.

The moment the two drew close, the Shadow Clone suddenly twisted to the side, evading Yuki Yuichi's kunai. Then it swiped at his wrist with one hand, knocking the kunai from his grasp.
