Civilians in Konoha, forging their own paths

In the Forest of Death, Namikaze Minato, whose kunai was knocked out of his hand, immediately stepped back to create some distance, while performing water escape technique!

I saw him in mid-air, with his hands clasped together, landing on the ground and shouting, "Water escape, iron cannonball!"

Spit out a dark blue water ball and fly towards Mizunoe Bingyu!

Mizunoe Bingyu thought to himself: "This kid, hold back!"

Then he dodged the attack of the iron cannonball, formed a seal and used a water ninjutsu to fight back, "Water ninjutsu, Water Trumpet Jutsu!"

Mizunotsuki Ice Feather spit out a stream of water that was shaped like a trumpet and attacked Namikaze Minato!

"Water escape, water formation wall!"

Namikaze Minato cast a water wall to block the water trumpet! After several water escape techniques and ninjutsu, the surrounding environment was affected and submerged under the water!

The companions of the two men now retreated to the branches of the surrounding trees to avoid being affected by the water escape!

"I didn't expect that the opponent is also a water-style ninja. His level is quite good!" said Megure Jūichi.

Ringo Koizumi nodded, "Since the opponent is a water-style ninja, he must be restrained by Bingyu!"

The two companions of Minato Namikaze not far away had indifferent expressions on their faces. They didn't believe that anyone could defeat Minato Namikaze at all, because this was their absolute trust in Minato after going through countless missions!

"Water Style, Water Impact Wave!" Namikaze Minato launched a counterattack, not on a large scale, but slightly stronger than Mizunoe Hirayama's water trumpet!

Mizunoe used the ice feather seal to perform water escape to break the rushing flow and collide with the water wave!

The surrounding environment was further destroyed by water escape!

"Water needle technique!" Namikaze Minato waved his hand, and countless water needles emerged from the water and shot towards Mizunoe Bingyu!

"Hmm? It's not quite the same as my release method. Instead, it's somewhat similar to Jiraiya's Needle Jizo! It seems that Minato borrowed Jiraiya's method!" Mizunotsuki Hiroha said.

"Water Style, Water Array Wall!" He also used Water Array Wall, but its duration was not as long as Minato Namikaze's water needle firing time!

"Damn, Minato, you're really good, you can last so long! I understand. No wonder you use the method of shooting from the water surface. It turns out that it is to increase the duration of the water needle's launch and reduce consumption to a certain extent! You really deserve to be like this, Minato!" Mizunoe Hiashi thought!

However, his hands were not idle. As the water array wall fell, he formed a seal and performed an ice escape ninjutsu, forming an ice wall in front of him! The defense power was greatly improved!

Seeing that the water needle technique could not break the ice wall head-on, Minato Namikaze immediately adjusted his tactics, increased consumption, and controlled the water needles to completely surround Mizunotsuki Hyoyu from all directions!

Mizunoe Bingyu's eyebrows jumped, "How cruel!"

Immediately form an ice wall and completely wrap yourself up in it!

In an instant, water splashes and ice chips were scattered everywhere!

Outside the giant crystal ball, Sarutobi Hiruzen took two puffs of his pipe. He was very satisfied with Namikaze Minato's current performance. From time to time, he glanced at the Third Mizukage to see his reaction.

However, what disappointed Sarutobi Hiruzen was that the Third Mizukage had no expression on his face, and there was no wonderful expression that he wanted to see!

So, Sarutobi Hiruzen took the initiative to speak: "Mister Mizukage, what is your evaluation of this battle so far?"

"Very good, their true strength exceeds that of Chunin. The technique used by the yellow-haired kid must be the water needle technique of the little water god!"

"Yes, it's water acupuncture!"

"It is said that the little water god can turn raindrops into water needles all over the sky, leaving holes everywhere he passes. Back then, he used this trick to cause my Wuyin to suffer heavy losses on the battlefield!"

"Well, it's all over after all, don't be sad, Mizukage-sama!"

"Humph!"

Inside the ice wall, Mizunotsuki formed ice feather seals again, condensed ice feathers on the outside, and shot towards Namikaze Minato!

Namikaze Minato dodged and the water needle technique was interrupted. Wherever the ice feather hit, it solidified into ice!

As soon as the water needle technique was interrupted, the ice wall around Mizunoe Bingyu exploded under his control, and the water surface around him turned into an ice layer!

"You just ejaculated for a long time! This time, you can also feel mine!" Mizunoe Bingyu said.

Then countless ice feathers condensed and shot towards Minato Namikaze madly!

Namikaze Minato clasped his hands together, not caring about retaining his strength, and the complete water array wall appeared!

"It's appeared, the Water Array Wall in its complete state!" Namikaze Minato's two teammates looked at each other.

"Huh? That's a water wall?! That's too exaggerated!" Ringo Koizumi said.

Megure nodded in agreement, "I didn't expect that the yellow-haired guy from Konoha would have such an accomplishment in water jutsu!"

However, Minato Namikaze could not laugh, because as the ice feathers shot at the wall of the water array, the wall of the water array condensed into ice, and all the places where ice condensed were no longer under his control!

Soon, an ice tornado appeared, replacing the water tornado! At the same time, the cold air approached Minato Namikaze!

The water tornado that originally protected Minato Namikaze turned into a death warrant that could freeze him at any time!

Namikaze Minato's nerves jumped, and finally, he made the most extreme reaction! Before he was frozen, he used the water rush wave with all his strength!

The ice tornado shattered instantly! A large amount of water spread in all directions, sweeping Mizuno Yue Bingyu and the four outsiders watching the battle away! At the same time, a large number of trees were knocked down!

Outside Konoha's giant crystal ball, all the high-level officials watching the battle were stunned!

"The last time I saw a water wave of this magnitude was when Dihuangmaru performed it!" Orochimaru licked his tongue and revealed an evil smile, as if he was reminiscing.

"Hokage, how about giving such an outstanding water-style ninja to me, Kirigakure?" the Third Mizukage said deliberately.

"Hmph, Lord Mizukage, it's not night now, stop dreaming!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En were both silent as they looked at the screen in the crystal ball, but the excitement on their faces showed the uneasiness in their hearts!

The Death Forest, with its huge water waves, spread over a long distance and alarmed many candidates from other teams!

Mizunoe Hiroha and two teammates were rushed to a place. "Minato, this guy, overreacted. He used such a large-scale water wave to break an ice wall! I choked on water twice! I've been playing with water for so many years, but this is the first time I've been choked on water!"

You know, Mizunotsuki Bingyu was hit by this water wave at close range, and now he is soaked all over and looks a bit embarrassed!

Seeing that Mizunotsuki Hiroha was pushed away by him and his teammates were also affected, plus many teams who heard the noise and rushed over to investigate the situation, Namikaze Minato realized that today's battle was over!

After rescuing his teammates, Namikaze Minato heard Mizunotsuki Hiraya's voice, "Namakaze Minato, it looks like today's battle has to end here, so I'll count you as the winner! I look forward to fighting you again in the next exam!"

Mizunotsuki threw the scroll with the word "Earth" in his hand, and Namikaze Minato raised his hand to catch it.

"The outcome of today's battle is undecided, and the result of the bet has not taken effect. You don't have to do this." said Minato Namikaze.

"I, Mizunoe Bingyu, am not someone who cannot afford to lose. Up to now, you have won by one move, so take it! You have used a water wave of that magnitude, so I am afraid it must have consumed a lot of energy! There are more and more people around, so you should leave. I will look for my prey among them!" said Mizunoe Bingyu.

After hearing this, Namikaze Minato said no more, "In that case, I will be very respectful to refuse. After the exam is over, I will treat you to ramen!"

"Okay!"

The two men walked closer, made the seal of reconciliation, and Minato Namikaze led the team away!
