Naruto: I Use Chakra to Upgrade Bloodline Limit Chapter 45

"But Ancestor, one must plan for a rainy day..."

Hearing Genya say this, Obito's expression stiffened instantly. Fortunately, he was wearing his Tiger-Pattern Mask, or he might have given himself away.

Noticing that Obito was rendered speechless by his retort, Genya shifted the tone of the conversation.

"It's not like I strictly require a high salary; could you perhaps guarantee a four-day work week, nine-to-five hours, or maybe just trade some ninjutsu?"

"Just some casual Sage Arts, the Flying Thunder God, things like that. My requirements aren't high."

After speaking.

Genya looked at Obito with an expectant expression, his eyes sparkling like a little fanboy.

Obito wanted to lose his temper.

But seeing Genya's appearance.

He suddenly felt both annoyed and amused.

He felt as if the boy were nothing but a little money-grubber.

Obito deliberately feigned indifference as he spoke.

"The things you're talking about are all forbidden secret arts of Konoha. Do you think they can be obtained so easily? You may be small, but you are quite greedy."

"However..." Obito left a cliffhanger, but upon realizing he hadn't piqued Genya's interest, he felt deeply disappointed and spoke anyway.

"As long as you pass my assessment, I can reward you with a high-level secret art!"

"Wow, thank you, Ancestor! What kind of assessment is it?" Genya feigned surprise, his mouth agape, his face full of anticipation.

This reaction from Genya left Obito very satisfied, his sense of accomplishment doubling.

Obito spoke indifferently, "Deep in the back mountains of the Uchiha, follow me!"

With that said.

The space rippled like waves.

Obito vanished.

Genya rubbed his chin, contemplating whether or not to follow.

If Obito had wanted to strike, the moment he walked through the door would have been the perfect opportunity for a sneak attack; there would have been no need to waste so much breath on him.

Moreover, Genya did not sense any killing intent from the other party.

Therefore, he had no reason to be timid.

Perhaps he could use Obito to squeeze out some benefits.

Thinking of this, Genya pushed open the door and headed straight for the depths of the Uchiha back mountains.

A moment later.

Genya appeared at the agreed-upon location.

It was a vast, open clearing.

Obito had already arrived; he stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

"I thought you might be too cowardly to come!" Obito turned around and saw Genya.

He knew.

Words alone would not be enough to win over the youth before him.

He had to entice him with profit!

"Use your full strength. If you can last three minutes against me without being defeated, you pass the assessment." Obito stated his conditions.

Only a youth with potential could earn Obito's recognition!

"Understood! I will definitely earn the Ancestor's recognition!" Genya rubbed his palms together, looking as if he were ready for a grand battle.

Genya believed he could hold out for a long time; three minutes would be absolutely no problem.

With his Sage Body, even three hours wouldn't be an issue.

Obito-kun... don't you dare underestimate me!

Suddenly, Genya pointed toward the dark night sky, his voice filled with a hint of surprise.

"Ancestor, look! A shooting star!"

No sooner had he spoken.

Taking advantage of the split second Obito was distracted, Genya lunged forward like a cheetah.

Then, a flurry of fierce, unparalleled punches rained down.

This kid is truly devious! The momentary distraction nearly allowed Genya to land a hit, but Obito's reflexes were fast enough that he didn't panic.

After all, Obito possessed strength beyond the Kage level.

The two clashed, producing a teeth-gritting "bang, bang, bang" sound.

"Stop holding back. Let me see the power of your Sharingan." Obito remained at ease, blocking Genya's attacks with every casual movement.

"Very well, Ancestor, I shall give my all to defeat you!" At this moment, Genya's words were thick with chuunibyou flair.

After all, the "Uchiha Madara" standing before him was Genya's idol.

Speak the language of men when among men.

Speak the language of ghosts when among ghosts.

If one is going to act, one must commit to the full performance!

"Two-Tomoe, activate!"

Once the Sharingan was opened, Genya's presence shifted abruptly, his attacks becoming ferociously aggressive.

Obito did not use the space-time ocular jutsu Kamui, as doing so would render the spar with Genya meaningless; he merely activated his left Sharingan.

The two engaged in a fierce exchange of taijutsu.

Genya realized that when sparring with Shisui, the latter focused on technique and exquisite, precise attacks.

Obito, however, possessed a different style, preferring to resolve battles through raw physical strength and brute force.

After all, Obito's body contained the cells of Hashirama Senju, granting him immense physical toughness, so he chose to break force with force.

Yet, he only possessed the cells of Hashirama Senju.

Whereas Genya possessed a true Sage Body.

In a pure taijutsu clash.

Genya was not afraid in the slightest!

More than half of the three minutes had passed.

Obito found Genya to be incredibly troublesome, unable to subdue him in a short time. After hesitating for a few seconds, he ultimately decided to use his Mangekyo ocular jutsu.

After all, only by defeating the youth could he truly convince him.

"Kamui!"

As Obito's voice fell.

The space in front of him was twisted by Kamui.

This triggered a vortex-like gale.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

The vortex-like gale combined with a massive ball of flame, transforming into a rotating inferno that swept rapidly toward the front.

Not only was the attack range greatly increased.

But its speed was also extremely fast.

"I can perform jutsu fusion too!" Genya immediately unleashed the Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame, combined with Wind Release: Gale, and a sky full of flames surged forward to collide with the incoming attack.

The two surging torrents of fire crashed into each other.

Turning into a sky filled with blazing light.

The two men's attack methods were somewhat similar, both using Fire Style combined with Wind Release to evolve into more powerful techniques!

It was fortunate that they were far from the village, otherwise, they would have been easily discovered by the Uchiha or the Anbu.

The raging fire burned.

A figure rushed directly out from the flames; while parts of his body were scorched black, his eyes were filled with determination and fighting spirit.

Genya leaped into the air and threw a punch at Obito.

Obito sneered, his Sharingan spinning rapidly. After capturing the trajectory of Genya's movement, he easily dodged the latter's attack and immediately struck out with a palm.

"Bang!"

The Genya who had been struck transformed into a puff of smoke.

It was a Shadow Clone!

At the same time.

A hand shot out from the ground in front of Obito, attempting to grab him.

"I am not that brat from the Cloud Village, do not underestimate me!" Obito sneered, grabbing Genya's wrist, yanking him up, and then delivering a heavy knee strike.

"Bang!"

It was another Shadow Clone!

"Ancestor, my apologies!" From a rock to Obito's right, a "bang" sounded as Genya charged out directly.

Genya had just used the Transformation Technique.

Taking advantage of the moment Obito attacked the two Shadow Clones, he had come to ambush him from the side.

When Obito let his guard down.

Genya rushed out to launch a sneak attack.

His combat planning was linked ring by ring, and his battle awareness was formidable!

Obito possessed a powerful ocular technique in Kamui.

Only by catching him off guard would it be possible to land an attack.

Wood Release would be of little use against Obito, and Genya had no intention of revealing that secret.

Just as Obito prepared to activate Kamui.

Genya struck first with the illusion technique, Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique.

Obito was affected for only half a second.

But for Genya, that was enough.

A punch thrown with all his might.

It headed straight for Obito's face.

A flicker of panic flashed through Obito's mind.

At the very last moment.

He managed to evade Genya's assault by relying on Kamui.

When he reappeared.

A faint crack had appeared on the Tiger-Pattern Mask covering Obito's face.

Genya had nearly struck him.

If that punch had landed just now.

Even with the cells of Hashirama, Obito felt he would not have been able to withstand it.

This boy's body was exceptionally powerful!

He possessed infinite potential!
