Yeyu's Terrifying Power

He could not believe it.

He could not believe that anyone would refuse such an offer from him.

And the other party was just a 12-year-old child.

"Why would you be unwilling? There are many benefits; don't you want to learn ninjutsu?"

For a ninja, ninjutsu is the most important thing.

Guy, who was not skilled in ninjutsu, had almost failed to graduate back in the day.

Yet Yeyu was actually unwilling.

He completely refused to believe what he had just heard.

Yeyu was very clear that he already possessed all the power of Akainu.

Those ninjutsu would provide him no enhancement; instead, they would only be a waste of his time.

Yeyu did not explain.

He simply said, "I'm not interested."

The Third Hokage's mouth twitched. "Fine, what a straightforward reason."

He didn't even know what to say.

This was the first time the Third Hokage had encountered such a setback.

He had personally come to offer to teach someone ninjutsu, only to be rejected by them.

If it weren't for the fact that only he and Yeyu were here, he would have died of embarrassment.

After a moment of silence, having adjusted his mindset, the Third Hokage smiled and asked, "Then, have you ever tested what level your strength has reached?"

Yeyu's expression finally changed, and the Third Hokage thought to himself, There's a chance.

"Does the Hokage intend to test it with me?"

The Third Hokage smiled and said, "You have a lot of courage, daring to challenge the Hokage. But it has been a long time since I've stretched my limbs."

Everything Iruka had said previously was just his own description; the Third Hokage had not seen it with his own eyes.

Even if he did not doubt what Iruka said, he still needed to verify exactly how strong Yeyu was.

The two soon arrived deep in the forest.

The place where Yeyu lived was already on the edge of Konoha, right in the middle of the forest.

It was quite suitable for the two of them to spar.

Yeyu had just obtained the full power of Akainu and was eager to test it out.

Beside a lake in the forest, the two stood facing each other.

A breeze blew across the grass.

The Third Hokage looked at Yeyu opposite him, and in an instant, he finally felt the aura of a powerhouse emanating from Yeyu.

At that moment, he knew that Yeyu was indeed very strong. Even if he didn't know exactly how strong, it was certain that he was powerful.

The Third Hokage took off his Hokage robe, revealing the ninja combat suit underneath.

The Third Hokage always wore his ninja combat suit.

Yeyu nodded at the Third Hokage. "Hokage, we can begin."

The Third Hokage was speechless; Yeyu was actually the one calling for the start.

Facing him, Yeyu truly showed not a shred of fear.

He didn't know if this was a good thing.

"Yeyu, be careful. I won't be holding back."

"Boom!"

"Hum."

No sooner had the Third Hokage finished speaking than Yeyu vanished from his spot, appearing right in front of the Third Hokage in almost the same instant.

The Third Hokage was shocked. "So fast!"

It was truly fast, so fast that the Third Hokage hadn't even been able to react.

It was so fast that the air had produced a sonic boom.

Although Akainu's taijutsu might not be on par with a taijutsu specialist like Garp, his taijutsu was still at the level of a Marine Admiral.

The Marine's taijutsu training in the early stages was extremely brutal.

Akainu and Kizaru were known as the monsters of that generation.

Furthermore, Devil Fruit abilities are sustained by physical stamina.

How could his taijutsu be anything but exceptional? It was simply that he frequently combined his taijutsu with his Devil Fruit powers, leading people to overlook his physical skills and focus solely on the astonishing destructive power of his fruit.

The moment Yeyu appeared before the Third Hokage, the Third Hokage didn't even have time to react.

However, Yeyu did not strike.

"Lord Hokage, please focus. Don't let your guard down just because I'm young."

The Third Hokage immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to put some distance between himself and Yeyu.

At this moment, the Third Hokage's heart was filled with shock. His speed is so fast. How could pure physical strength reach such a level?

He had heard that sonic boom clearly just a moment ago.

Yeyu's speed had already far exceeded the speed of sound.

What was most terrifying was that his body had actually withstood such immense speed.

He seemed completely unscathed, and he hadn't even used chakra to protect his body.

It was too exaggerated.

Is this child's physical strength even more terrifying than that of the Third Raikage?

The Third Hokage had no choice; in terms of pure taijutsu, he was definitely no match for Yeyu.

Just from that single instant, he immediately understood the gap in their taijutsu.

The Third Hokage bit his finger and began to weave hand signs. "Summoning Jutsu!"

"Poof."

A cloud of white smoke appeared.

From within the smoke, an ape clad in armor stepped out.

"Third, why have you summoned me?"

This was the Third Hokage's summoning animal, Enma.

The Third Hokage said seriously, "I want to spar with the child over there. His taijutsu is very strong."

Enma looked at Yeyu, who was standing opposite them.

He also looked at the terrifying footprints on the ground in the distance, which had been left behind when Yeyu moved at high speed.

Around the footprints, dozens of cracks extended for over ten meters.

Enma's gaze narrowed, and his expression turned serious. "This child's taijutsu is indeed strong."

"If he weren't strong, why would I have summoned you?"

Enma said nothing more and immediately transformed into a staff.

The Third Hokage gripped the Adamantine Staff.

"Yeyu, I assume you don't know ninjutsu, so I shall test you in taijutsu instead."

Yeyu was speechless. "Lord Hokage, are you sure about that?"
