(Uchiha Yue thanks you!)

"Good! A truly good Sunflower Pointing Hand!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, the fire of rage in the Anbu operative's pupils intensified, and her voice trembled slightly as she said, "As expected of a genius of the Uchiha Clan, your talent for jutsu truly exceeds that of ordinary people by far. No wonder... no wonder that guy Minato forgot even such an important matter just to discuss ninjutsu with you!"

"Uchiha Yue! Today, I am going to give you a proper thrashing!"

At this moment, Uchiha Yue's mental energy suddenly sensed a surge of chakra fluctuations coming from the figure of the Anbu operative before him!

It must be known that Uchiha Yue had already used his Falling Moon Style: Sunflower Pointing Hand to strike the opponent's pressure points; logically, she should have been unable to utilize chakra. Yet, unexpectedly, while her points were sealed, the Anbu operative had relied on her own formidable chakra to forcefully break through the seal, instantly regaining the ability to use chakra.

Seeing this happen, Uchiha Yue's pupils constricted slightly, and he simultaneously realized the flaws in his newly developed taijutsu!

That's right, Uchiha Yue's Falling Moon Style: Sunflower Pointing Hand was still in its infancy. While it could indeed seal an enemy's pressure points and prevent them from using chakra in combat for a short time, its defect lay in the fact that if an enemy's chakra was powerful enough, they could rely on their own vast reserves to force the points open.

Here, one could see that Uchiha Yue's new style of pressure-point taijutsu still had a certain gap compared to the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist.

After all, if a member of the Hyuga Clan used the Gentle Fist to seal an enemy's points, even if the enemy possessed formidable chakra, they would not be able to break through so easily and recover their chakra usage. Thus, the road for Uchiha Yue to perfect this new taijutsu was still long; at the very least, he would need to accumulate experience through long-term actual combat before this new technique could truly be mentioned in the same breath as the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist.

However, Uchiha Yue had no way to test his new taijutsu while fighting this particular Anbu operative.

After all, the Anbu operative's strength far exceeded his own; if he were to experiment with new techniques in such a battle, Uchiha Yue would not be far from defeat.

Following that...

Once the Anbu operative used her vast chakra to forcibly break through the sealed points, her figure arrived in front of Uchiha Yue in an instant.

Overall, Uchiha Yue's taijutsu remained his weak point; at least when facing this powerful Anbu operative, the flaws in his taijutsu were magnified infinitely. Watching helplessly as the Anbu operative reached him, Uchiha Yue wanted to put some distance between them, but she gave him absolutely no opportunity.

Then, within Uchiha Yue's dilating pupils, the Anbu operative's right hand landed squarely on his abdomen!

"Four Symbols Seal: Seal!"

In Uchiha Yue's mental perception, he felt vast chakra condensed on the operative's fingers. As her five fingers pressed against his abdomen, he felt the chakra within his own body suddenly cease its flow. Clearly, the Anbu operative was using a sealing jutsu, intending to lock the flow of chakra inside Uchiha Yue.

However, the Anbu operative likely never imagined that the trajectory of chakra flow within Uchiha Yue's body was different from that of an ordinary person!

Long ago, Uchiha Yue had expanded the meridians within his body, making his own chakra flow trajectory unique. With such an unconventional flow, even the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist could not seal his points, let alone the sealing jutsu used by the Anbu operative before him.

Therefore, the chakra in Uchiha Yue's body only stagnated for a single second before he formed hand seals and utilized the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist!

The Anbu operative had not expected Uchiha Yue to still be able to use chakra, so she stood stunned for a brief second as she looked at his afterimage. This short second was exactly the opportunity Uchiha Yue needed; he condensed chakra into his right hand and, with a single hand, unleashed his strongest offensive ninjutsu!

"Rasengan!"

Azure light shimmered on Uchiha Yue's right hand. He instantly appeared before the Anbu operative and thrust the Rasengan toward her abdomen. Who would have thought that the Anbu operative had been observing his movements the entire time? To her, Uchiha Yue's speed was simply too slow.

Consequently, Uchiha Yue's attack missed, and the opponent arrived behind him, preparing to knock him down with a single blow.

But...

Just as the Anbu operative was full of confidence that she would strike Uchiha Yue to the ground, he suddenly performed an astonishing maneuver!

The Rasengan condensed in Uchiha Yue's right hand was released at this very moment, flying straight toward the Anbu operative's face!

"Falling Moon Style: Rasengan Manipulation Technique!"

Without a doubt, in order to defeat the Anbu operative before him, Uchiha Yue had revealed another hidden trump card!

It turned out that once Uchiha Yue discovered he could condense a Rasengan with one hand, he began to enhance its offensive capabilities. Now, he was using chakra threads to control the Rasengan, allowing it to be launched for an attack so that he didn't need to be in close quarters to use it.

Only...

Uchiha Yue's current chakra control was not yet sufficient to maintain the Rasengan's form with a single chakra thread.

Therefore, the moment the projectile Rasengan struck the Anbu operative's mask, it dissipated.

However, because the Rasengan had made contact, the Anbu operative's mask shattered completely.

And at that same moment, the Anbu operative's true face was exposed before Uchiha Yue...

"It... it's her!"

Just as Uchiha Yue destroyed the Anbu operative's mask with his Falling Moon Style: Rasengan Manipulation Technique, two figures hidden in the darkness were watching the battle. Furthermore, the two people hidden in the shadows were both individuals Uchiha Yue had encountered: his master, Tsunade, and Jiraiya, who was also one of the Sannin.

"Truly remarkable!"

Watching Uchiha Yue maintain the Rasengan with a single chakra thread, Jiraiya couldn't help but exclaim, "Tsunade, you really have taken in a good disciple. It seems you have only taught him once, yet his strength has progressed so much—it's truly unimaginable! Moreover, the taijutsu he just used was also very interesting; it resembles the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist. His talent for jutsu is indeed very high!"

"Hmph, it's just child's play."

Although Tsunade said this, her heart was filled with joy; after all, Uchiha Yue was her disciple.

However, seeing that the Anbu operative was about to launch a counterattack, Tsunade sighed softly and said quite helplessly, "Sigh, although Yue's talent is extremely high, his current strength is still too weak. Tell me, Jiraiya, how did Yue provoke that troublesome person? It seems they have never even had any contact before, right?"

"Actually... I do know some of the inside story."

Hearing Tsunade's question, Jiraiya shook his head with a bitter smile and said slowly, "Sigh, it's truly pitiful for Uchiha Yue to have provoked her for no reason. Originally, today was the day Minato was supposed to go on a date with her, but who would have thought that Minato would forget the date just to discuss new ninjutsu with Uchiha Yue."

"So..."

"She shifted her anger over Minato standing her up onto Uchiha Yue, intending to give him a good thrashing."

"After all... she is Kushina Uzumaki!"
