Naruto: Releasing Chakra Limits at the Start

However, Ye Yu's strength improved far too quickly.

Even though Kakashi previously thought Yoru's talent was very strong and that he had the potential to catch up with the Fourth Hokage in the future.

I didn't expect Ye Yu's strength to improve so quickly.

Now, Yoru only needs a few more highly lethal ninjutsu.

He also possessed an exceptional talent for learning ninjutsu.

It's likely that before long, Ye Yu will truly possess the strength of a Jonin, or even an elite Jonin.

Shaking his head, Kakashi formed hand seals: "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall Technique"

Instantly, several earthen walls appeared around the two ninja corpses, burying them inside.

After dealing with things here, Kakashi emerged from the woods.

Along the way, I saw trees that had been broken by the crash.

Even Kakashi was shocked.

"Just how strong must this kid be to break these big trees?"

"It was just the aftershock, yet it broke so many trees. I'm afraid even ordinary ninjutsu couldn't do that."

They came to Ye Yu and the others.

Looking at Ye Yu standing there calmly.

Upon seeing Kakashi appear, Yoru asked, "How are those two ninjas?"

Kakashi sighed: "They're all dead."

Do you know who they are?

Although Yoru knew that the two were ninjas from Kirigakure, he still asked.

"Two Chunin from Kirigakure, their target must be Mr. Tazuna, right?"

Kakashi scrutinized Tazna.

He knew that Dazner must have been hiding the difficulty of the mission from them.

There are ninjas, two Chunin at that. This is definitely not a C-rank mission, but a B-rank mission. Kakashi even thinks that these two Chunin are not the strongest ninjas they have encountered in this mission.

It's obvious that these two Chunin were sent to scout ahead.

This mission might even involve Jonin, making it an A-rank mission.

The difference between a Rank A mission and a Rank C mission is significant.

The hiring costs alone differ greatly; a C-level mission costs at most 5 taels, while an A-level mission costs at least 15 taels.

Yoru also looked at Tazuna.

Tazner felt nervous as two pairs of eyes stared at him.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Although he was very nervous, Tazner still tried to remain calm and asked.

Kakashi said coldly, "Mr. Tazuna, those two ninjas came for you."

Tazner vehemently denied it, saying, "How could that be? We're clearly here for you."

Kakashi frowned.

Seeing that Kakashi was somewhat unhappy, Yoru reminded him, "Mr. Tazuna, if you don't explain the specifics of this mission clearly, we can't guarantee that we will continue to carry it out."

"You don't need to hide anything. I think these two ninjas are definitely not the last batch. What will happen to you if we abandon this mission?"

Yoru felt that if he didn't force Tazuna to explain himself, Kakashi would have to give up on the mission.

Tazuna initially wanted to keep it a secret, but after seeing Yoru's serious gaze, he sighed and told the truth.

After Tazuna finished speaking, he looked at Yoru and Kakashi: "Our Land of Waves really needs that bridge. I know I've been hiding the difficulty of this mission from you two, but our Land of Waves is very poor, we don't even have any ninjas."

"We also cannot afford the commission for A-level missions. Please, both of you, help our Land of Waves."

"please!"

As he spoke, Tazna knelt down.

Yoru looked at Kakashi.

He didn't say anything.

He was waiting for Kakashi to make a decision, since he was the one who could decide whether to continue the mission.

After Kakashi helped Tazuna up, he asked Yoru and the others, "Do you think we should continue this mission, or give up and return to the village?"

Kakashi ultimately left the decision to Yoru and the others.

Ye Yu did not express any opinion.

Sasuke's eyes remained fixed on Yoru.

He was still reeling from the shock Ye Yu had given him.

Sakura saw that Sasuke didn't speak, so she didn't speak either.

Naruto was so frightened that he was still standing there dumbfounded.

No one spoke, and Tazner was very nervous.

If Kakashi and the others were unwilling to protect him, then the bridge to the Land of Waves would never have been built.

Gato hired a Jonin; only a Jonin like Kakashi could possibly protect him.

Moreover, the strength that Yoru had just displayed had already earned Tazuna's trust.

In his view, as long as Kakashi and Yoru were there, the Jonin hired by Gato shouldn't be able to kill him.

Kakashi looked at Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura, and shook his head.

The three of them were still inexperienced and were completely terrified by what had just happened.

He could only turn his gaze to Ye Yu.

Ye Yu was also speechless.

He originally didn't want to say anything.

After all, he wasn't a member of Class 7. This mission belonged to Class 7, not him.

However, Yoru felt that if he didn't say something, Kakashi would really lead the team back.

"Kakashi-sensei, I think we should continue with this mission. I'm willing to believe what Mr. Tazuna said."

Kakashi nodded: "Since you've said so, let's continue with this mission."

“But Mr. Tazuna, you must tell us which ninjas the person who wants to kill you has hired, so we can take precautions.”

Kakashi's willingness to continue this mission naturally pleased Tazuna.

He quickly told the others about Gato's situation, adding, "Gato hired a Jonin from Kirigakure, and it seems he's a very powerful one."

Kakashi muttered to himself, "Just as I expected, there really is a Jonin."

Kakashi's expression was solemn.

He brought four genin with him this time; it would have been fine if he had come alone.

Ye Yu wasn't worried.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura are truly genuine genin.

The three of them had no chance of survival when facing a Jonin.

Kakashi looked at Yoru and said, "Yoru, I'm entrusting Mr. Tazuna to you. No matter what happens from now on, you must ensure his safety."

"Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura, the three of you must stick close to Yoru. If you get separated, it will be easy for the enemy to pick you off one by one."

Although Sasuke was very unhappy, Kakashi meant that Yoru was stronger than them.

Thinking of the strength that Yoru had just displayed, Sasuke reluctantly nodded, though unwilling.

Sakura naturally had no emotions.

If it weren't for Ye Yu, she would have been killed.

Yoru saved her life, and since Sasuke had already agreed, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

Naruto was still staring blankly at the group.

Kakashi looked at Naruto and sighed, "Naruto, what about you?"

Kakashi's words brought Naruto back to his senses.

"Huh? I, I have no objection."

At that moment, he felt the gap between himself and Yoru and Sasuke.

Although Sasuke's performance wasn't as good as Yoru's, he was definitely the best among the three in the team.

He did nothing the whole time, just stood there completely still.

Naruto gritted his teeth, ashamed of his earlier cowardice.

"Next time, I will definitely stand in front of Sasuke and Yoru, and I will definitely surpass them."

After saying that, Naruto drew his kunai and stabbed his own palm through it.

"Ah~"

Everyone was stunned.

Naruto's self-harming behavior surprised everyone.

Kakashi quickly nodded: "Although your performance wasn't ideal just now, it's good that you feel ashamed."

Actually, Kakashi wasn't very satisfied with Naruto's performance just now.

However, this was his first time leaving the village to carry out a mission, and his first time encountering a scene of killing, so it's understandable that he performed poorly.

Now that Naruto knows how to reflect on himself, he's not beyond redemption.

Ye Yu didn't actually want to get involved in this crisis.

This is because it's Team 7's mission, and it's also a training exercise for Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura.

If he intervenes, he will fail to achieve his goal of training them.

But when the two ninjas were about to kill Sakura, Kakashi was still hiding in the woods and wouldn't show up, so he had no choice but to take action.

Yoru knew that Kakashi definitely wanted him to fight so he could test Yoru's combat skills.
