"Hum..."

Accompanied by the output of chakra within his body, Uchiha Yue used his vast spiritual energy to control it, gradually forming a circular trajectory of chakra flow in his palm!

That's right, the ninjutsu Uchiha Yue was currently using was the Rasengan, which he had been painstakingly cultivating for the past two months.

He would not speak until he made a sound, but once he did, he would stun everyone!

What Uchiha Yue wanted to do now was to demonstrate his advantages in front of peerless powerhouses like Tsunade and Jiraiya, making even the top figures in the ninja world marvel at his talent!

Although Uchiha Yue had not yet completed his training in the Rasengan—at the very least, he could not yet use such a powerful ninjutsu with one hand—under the control of both hands, the prototype of the Rasengan had already begun to take shape. The Rasengan in Uchiha Yue's palm was completing itself bit by bit, accompanied by terrifying power, leaving Tsunade and Jiraiya, who were watching from the sidelines, sighing in admiration.

"He... he actually finished that ninjutsu!"

The moment she noticed Uchiha Yue gathering chakra in his palm, Tsunade had guessed what he was doing, but she never imagined that Uchiha Yue would truly complete the new ninjutsu he was researching within just two months. Moreover, with her extensive experience, Tsunade could see the power of this technique at a glance, and even more so, its terrifying potential.

Therefore, even Tsunade, as one of the Sannin of Konoha, could not help but sigh inwardly; Uchiha Yue's talent was truly at a monstrous level!

However, the person even more shocked than Tsunade was Jiraiya, who stood beside her.

When Uchiha Yue fought Hatake Kakashi, Jiraiya had been watching the battle alongside the Third Hokage. At that time, Jiraiya had been somewhat surprised by Uchiha Yue's potential, but he never expected that after only a few months of not seeing him, Uchiha Yue would have developed yet another new ninjutsu.

Shifting his gaze to Minato Namikaze beside him, Jiraiya looked at his student while the image of Uchiha Yue's thin, frail figure surfaced in his mind. In his heart, Jiraiya was comparing the talent of his beloved student with that of Uchiha Yue, and after a careful comparison, he felt that Uchiha Yue's talent might be a cut above his own student's!

"Tsunade, you really have picked up a treasure!"

Before the battle in the training ground had even concluded, Jiraiya let out a deep sigh and said, "I never expected that Teacher Sarutobi would actually hand such an outstanding genius over to you to cultivate. The ninjutsu Uchiha Yue is using now must be the one you mentioned, right? It's truly hard to believe that a ninjutsu of this caliber was created by a Genin, and it only took him two months! Setting aside Uchiha Yue's other talents, just his aptitude for techniques is something no one in the entire ninja world can compare to!"

Hearing Jiraiya's words, although Tsunade had not yet taken Uchiha Yue as her disciple, a faint smile still appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze, standing beside Tsunade and Jiraiya, had not heard a word of what his master and Tsunade were saying; his attention was entirely focused on Uchiha Yue. For some reason, the moment Minato saw the ninjutsu Uchiha Yue was using, a strange gleam appeared in his eyes, and his focus was involuntarily locked onto the technique.

However, while everyone in the training ground was amazed by Uchiha Yue's new ninjutsu, Hatake Dansui and Hyuga Anihiko had no time to be surprised; they were busy trying to suppress the fear rising within them. Upon seeing the ninjutsu Uchiha Yue unleashed, both Hatake Dansui and Hyuga Anihiko felt a very ominous sensation; clearly, they could sense the power contained within the technique in Uchiha Yue's hand.

Unfortunately...

The arrow was on the string and had to be fired!

Seeing Uchiha Yue's new ninjutsu, Hatake Dansui had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue using the Hatake Sword Style to close the distance.

But who would have thought that just as Hatake Dansui reached Uchiha Yue and swung his blade down at the very moment he was in front of him...

Uchiha Yue's figure vanished in an instant, leaving behind nothing but an afterimage!

"Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist!"

Without a doubt, the ninjutsu Uchiha Yue was using now was the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist that he had developed himself!

Even Hatake Dansui found it inconceivable how Uchiha Yue could manage to use the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist while simultaneously controlling the Rasengan with both hands. However, Uchiha Yue, deep in the heat of battle, gave Hatake Dansui no time to think, and in the next moment, his figure had already appeared before Hyuga Anihiko!

Clearly, the target Uchiha Yue had locked onto at the start of the battle was Hyuga Anihiko, who had been waiting for an opening on the sidelines!

Looking at the terrified expression in Hyuga Anihiko's eyes, Uchiha Yue curled his lips into a smile and unleashed the ninjutsu in his hand directly at him!

"Rasengan!"

In an instant, a brilliant azure light of chakra flashed in Uchiha Yue's hand, and the Rasengan, brimming with terrifying power, gradually bore down on Hyuga Anihiko.

Facing Uchiha Yue's overwhelming offensive, Hyuga Anihiko felt as if all his paths of retreat had been sealed; he had no choice but to take the hit head-on!

Hyuga Anihiko was worthy of being a genius of the Hyuga Clan; seeing that he could not dodge Uchiha Yue's attack, he immediately circulated all the chakra in his body and unleashed the ultimate technique of the Hyuga Clan!

"Rotation!"

Having nearly exhausted all the chakra in his body, Hyuga Anihiko prepared to use his Rotation to decide the outcome of the battle against Uchiha Yue.

Immediately following...

The Rasengan in Uchiha Yue's hand collided head-on with the Rotation used by Hyuga Anihiko!

"Boom..."

Accompanied by a deafening roar, countless clouds of dust and debris were kicked up throughout the training ground by the violent collision between Uchiha Yue and Hyuga Anihiko.

When the smoke gradually cleared, Uchiha Yue's figure had vanished from everyone's sight, leaving only the disheveled figure of Hyuga Anihiko kneeling within their line of vision!

"Anihiko, he actually lost!"

Seeing Hyuga Anihiko kneeling there in such a wretched state, with his clothes torn to varying degrees, how could Hatake Dansui not know that Hyuga Anihiko had been defeated by Uchiha Yue?

Moreover, the moment Hatake Dansui's pupils constricted in shock at Hyuga Anihiko's defeat, Uchiha Yue's figure appeared right before him!

What made Hatake Dansui feel even more uneasy was that the light of the Rasengan had once again appeared in Uchiha Yue's palm!

After defeating Hyuga Anihiko with the Rasengan, Uchiha Yue was actually using it again to attack Hatake Dansui!

Such terrifying strength caused even powerhouses like Tsunade and Jiraiya to glance over in surprise; clearly, the strength Uchiha Yue was displaying now was already far greater than that of the vast majority of Genin.

Subsequently, as Uchiha Yue controlled the Rasengan and arrived before Hatake Dansui, Hatake Dansui still wanted to use the short blade in his hand to resist. However, before Uchiha Yue could bring the Rasengan to bear on Hatake Dansui, Tsunade's figure appeared in front of him, grabbing Uchiha Yue's right hand in one motion, causing the chakra in his palm to dissipate instantly.

Seeing Tsunade step in to end the battle, Uchiha Yue showed no signs of discouragement, a faint smile instead playing on his lips.

Afterward, Tsunade looked at Uchiha Yue before her and nodded slightly. Then, shifting her gaze to Hatake Dansui, she spoke: "Little brat of the Hatake family, you are no match for Yue. Take your companion and go back to heal your wounds. Also, I have something I need you to do for me!"

"In a while, take your companion back to the Ninja Academy and tell that guy Sarutobi Shinsuke..."

"Uchiha Yue, I have taken him as my disciple!"
