Flying Thunder God Technique

The main group all had Grade 1 strength. Only Kugisaki was somewhat mediocre, but even she was a little stronger than Grade 2.

Their opponents went without saying.

But Yue Liusi's strength had now risen another level.

One Kakashi's worth of chakra, and the B-rank Water Dragon Bullet Technique.

That was already enough for Grade 1.

"There isn't enough room here. Let's go outside."

Yue Liusi said nothing more, turning and walking outside.

He couldn't be bothered to waste words. One fight would be enough.

Shoko Ieiri smiled slightly at the sight and followed with interest.

Masamichi Yaga followed close behind.

A short while later.

"After all that, I still end up having to do the work..."

Shoko Ieiri sighed softly, maintaining her Reverse Cursed Technique.

The few bruises on Yue Liusi's body were healing rapidly.

His face was a little pale. Clearly, he had expended quite a bit.

With his current chakra reserves, he could use the Water Dragon Bullet Technique roughly four times. If he needed to spend chakra elsewhere, that number would drop further.

He took back what he had said earlier. Kakashi really did have mana problems.

Meanwhile, Masamichi Yaga was in even worse shape.

He was soaked through, his clothes were tattered, and he had burns on his body. The immensely powerful Water Dragon Bullet Technique, the hard-to-guard-against Phoenix Flower Jutsu, and the "Vaporization" Yue Liusi had deliberately triggered-a wide expanse of scalding steam-had all given him considerable trouble.

He possessed Special Grade capabilities and Grade 1 strength, but that did not mean he would go all out against someone who appeared to be an ally.

Wouldn't it hurt to have his cursed corpses destroyed?

This had only been a test to begin with.

Had he known this fellow was this strong, he would not have fought him.

Just as Masamichi Yaga was about to submit an application through special channels, Yue Liusi suddenly added,

"I want the title of Semi-Grade 2."

The strength he had shown Masamichi Yaga was undoubtedly Grade 1, but who knew whether this Chunin mission would recognize a Grade 1 title?

To be safe, Semi-Grade 2 it was.

"You really are a strange one."

Masamichi Yaga shook his head but did not refuse. After learning how strong Yue Liusi was, his attitude had changed considerably.

That was how Jujutsu Society worked. Strength reigned supreme.

Another source of strength meant another chance of victory in Shibuya.

His comrades were all in there, so he very much welcomed Yue Liusi's involvement.

Beside them, Yue Liusi felt the effects of Reverse Cursed Technique on his body and instinctively activated his Sharingan. The flow of cursed energy was laid bare.

As his gaze moved upward, the flow of cursed energy became finer and more complex.

The brain, the core of Reverse Cursed Technique.

Glancing at Yue Liusi's slightly furrowed brows, Shoko Ieiri paused mid-exhale. She casually stubbed out her cigarette and said with a soft laugh,

"Little guy, hasn't anyone told you it's rude to keep staring at a girl?"

At Shoko Ieiri's current age, there was nothing particularly inappropriate about calling Yue Liusi a little guy.

A sharp sting came from his eyes, and Yue Liusi withdrew his gaze.

"Big sis, you're a little full of yourself."

"I was just curious about Reverse Cursed Technique."

Shoko Ieiri merely smiled slightly, and Yue Liusi said nothing more either.

He could not yet master Innate Techniques. After all, they were imprints engraved at the level of the soul. Like kekkei genkai, they were beyond the Sharingan's capabilities.

But Reverse Cursed Technique was different.

However intricate and complex it was, it was still a skill within the brain, something that could be understood and learned later in life. It merely required exceptional talent and the right opportunity, and the Sharingan happened to make up for that.

It was just that the ocular power required and the drain on his mental energy were too great.

One tomoe was not enough yet.

But he could try later.

Having a system did not mean he would disregard his own potential for growth.

Although his special "chakra" possessed all the properties of cursed energy and looked no different to others, it was not fundamentally negative energy, so Cursed Technique Reversal would not work on it.

Still, Reverse Cursed Technique alone was enough. In terms of healing, it was equivalent to the Strength of a Hundred Technique without the side effects, arguably the best means of medical treatment.

Being able to master it would be worthwhile no matter what.

And if he combined it with Medical Ninjutsu...

[Mission two completed]

Masamichi Yaga was thoroughly dependable in getting things done. Yue Liusi had already been registered as a Semi-Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerer, and the system notification followed.

Lava Release!

A kekkei genkai!

Yue Liusi already had a plan for what to do next.

In short, he did not intend to act rashly before possessing absolute strength. Teacher Gojo was one thing, but Sukuna was another. Having finally transmigrated, only to be casually kicked to death by Sukuna like some roadside nobody, would be a terrible loss.

He would prioritize completing system missions and take a wait-and-see approach toward the top combatants.

With that thought, Yue Liusi brought up the newly refreshed missions.

[Mission one: eliminate five Chunin. Reward: Two-Tomoe Sharingan]

[Mission two: engage the S-rank Tailed Beast Mahito in combat. Reward: Ame-no-Murakumo Sword]

[Mission three: bully the Ryomen Otsutsuki Vessel. Reward: Flying Thunder God Technique]

No mission to advance to Jonin?

Yue Liusi was a little surprised. He had originally thought he could complete two missions in succession right here.

After all, his strength was already Grade 1, so getting Masamichi Yaga to apply for a Semi-Grade 1 title would not be difficult either.

Now it seemed that would not work.

The five Chunin in mission one meant five cursed spirits of at least Grade 2. Jujutsu sorcerers would also work, but since the mission required elimination, cursed spirits would be more convenient.

The reward for mission two was actually a weapon?

The Ame-no-Murakumo Sword had another, more famous name-the Kusanagi Sword.

Like Kusanagi Sword, Ame-no-Murakumo Sword was a general designation for weapons rather than a reference to one specific sword.

According to the description, this Ame-no-Murakumo Sword should be Sasuke Uchiha's sword, which was said to be made of an extremely hard material.

Although Mahito was very dangerous and he currently had no means of defending against Idle Transfiguration, he did not need to defeat him, only engage him in combat. It was not out of the question to try.

As for mission three, that was the one that stirred Yue Liusi the most.

The S-rank ninjutsu, Flying Thunder God Technique!

The Fourth Hokage's signature technique!

It could well be called the ninjutsu best suited to his current circumstances.

If used only in normal combat rather than to transport himself over vast distances or move large quantities of objects, this technique did not consume much mana.

What was more, receiving it meant perfect mastery, further lowering its mana consumption and the requirements for casting it.

With the Flying Thunder God Technique, Yue Liusi would have the means to contend with Special Grades, and his ability to stay alive would undergo a qualitative leap.

But this bullying mission...

Naturally, he knew who this so-called Ryomen Otsutsuki Vessel was.

It was just that Yue Liusi really did find it a headache.

Bullying?

Was this some ninja tradition?

Yue Liusi did not linger at the toll station. Masamichi Yaga had told him to move freely within Shibuya and provide support, which suited him perfectly.

After Yue Liusi left, a voice quietly broke the silence.

"I saw traces of those two in him."

Shoko Ieiri spoke softly, and Masamichi Yaga immediately understood. After all, who she meant by those two went without saying.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded and raised an eyebrow.

"As calculating as Geto, yet as unruly as Satoru..."

Had he combined both their shortcomings? After all, Geto had originally been thoughtful, while Satoru had merely been free-spirited.

Being calculating and unruly had come later.

"If he had Satoru's talent, Jujutsu Society would probably be a lot more interesting. A pity, though..."

Masamichi Yaga shook his head, his expression calm.

In Jujutsu Society, hard work could not bridge the gap in talent.
