Naruto: Releasing Chakra Limits at the Start

After receiving Kakashi's promise, Sasuke said nothing more.

A week later, the bridge in the Land of Waves was finally completed.

Tazuna originally wanted to name the bridge "Yohane Bridge".

But Ye Yu refused.

Dazner later named the bridge the "Bridge of Hope".

Ye Yu naturally didn't want his reputation to be too high at this time.

If it doesn't benefit him, Ye Yu naturally won't do it.

After more than a month in the Land of Waves, they finally completed their mission.

It was originally just a C-level mission, but who knew it would be upgraded to a B-level mission.

Of course, this mission was very beneficial to Ye Yu.

This allowed his strength to soar from Genin to Kage level in just over a month.

Yoru's strength is now even greater than Kakashi's.

This was Kakashi's assessment; Yoru himself felt that his current strength was at the Jonin level.

He felt that his practical experience was still far from that of a Jonin.

He only managed to reach the level of Jonin by relying on his enormous chakra reserves and his mastery of many practical ninjutsu.

But even he himself didn't believe that someone who barely reached the level of a Jonin could kill an elite Jonin in a short time, especially one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

He also unleashed a ninjutsu that spanned hundreds of meters, suppressing Naruto in his Two-Tails form.

Yoru has always been rather conservative in his self-assessment.

Perhaps because he knew what happened to Kaguya Otsutsuki during the Fourth Shinobi World War, he always calculated his own strength with an extremely conservative estimate.

Kaguya Otsutsuki taught him a terrible lesson, making him extremely cautious.

After the group returned to Konoha.

Then I went to the Hokage Building to submit the mission.

Because Ye Yu participated in this mission, he also needed to come in person.

The Hokage's office.

The Third Hokage looked at the five people standing in front of him.

Especially for Yoru, this was the first time Yoru and the Third Generation had officially met.

The three generations had not noticed Yoru before, and even after they learned about Yoru, the third generation did not have a chance to meet him.

After Kakashi reported the general situation of the mission in the Land of Waves, the Third Hokage nodded.

"This mission was classified as a B-level mission, and you did a good job."

Missions of rank A and above need to be issued by the government, so even if elite Jonin participate in this mission, it can only be considered a rank B mission.

Because this mission was issued by Dazner, and he issued it in his personal capacity.

After chatting with everyone for a few minutes, the Third Hokage said, "Kakashi, Yoru, you two stay here. The rest of you go back and rest."

Kakashi frowned.

Ye Yu didn't seem to feel anything.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura thought that the Third Hokage left Kakashi and Yoru behind to praise them.

After all, Kakashi and Yoru were the most outstanding in this mission, especially Yoru.

This aligns with the image of the three generations in their minds.

Even Sasuke, whose personality became incredibly aloof due to the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, had a great fondness for the Third Hokage.

Because the Third Hokage did take good care of him, whether it was because he valued Sasuke or because of Itachi Uchiha's entrustment.

The Third Hokage's concern for Sasuke meant that Sasuke had no complaints about him.

Naruto and Sakura were even less likely to think that the Third Hokage had any problems.

So when he left, Naruto looked at Yoru with envy, thinking to himself, "I will definitely surpass Yoru."

Despite Naruto's usual pranks on the Third Hokage, he truly regarded the Third Hokage as his grandfather.

Therefore, he really hoped to receive praise from three generations.

After Naruto, Sasuke and the others left, only the Third Hokage, Yoru, and Kakashi remained in the Hokage's office.

After a long while, the Third Hokage finally spoke to Kakashi, "Kakashi, tell me the details of this mission."

Kakashi sighed inwardly. The reason he had only given a general overview of the mission in the Land of Waves was that he didn't want the Third Hokage to think about it too much.

However, because Naruto and the others were there, Kakashi couldn't make up many things to say, so he spoke very briefly.

That's the biggest problem.

The third generation was a cunning old fox; he could naturally tell what the other person was trying to hide.

Yoru also sensed that something was off.

Fortunately, he knew about the third generation and wasn't worried about anything happening.

However, he knew he couldn't keep his affairs in the Land of Waves a secret any longer.

Of course, Ye Yu didn't intend to keep it a secret.

After all, he was a ninja from Konoha, and he didn't have a clan that was always causing trouble behind him, so the Third Hokage wouldn't necessarily have any ill intentions towards him.

However, Yoru really didn't want the Third Hokage to know his current strength.

After all, with greater responsibility comes greater burden.

Who knows if the third generation will treat him like a beast of burden?

Keep in mind that he's currently a genin (lower-ranking ninja), and if he accepts more difficult missions, he won't get much money.

Kakashi thought about it for a moment, and of course he was unwilling to reveal Yoru's matter.

The mission in the Land of Kobo involves not only Kakashi and Yoru, but also Sasuke and the other two.

If Kakashi's statement differs from Sasuke's and the others', it won't benefit Yoru.

Kakashi glanced at Yoru, and had no choice but to recount the events of the Land of Waves in detail.

The third generation was initially calm, but as they listened, they became increasingly alarmed.

Yoru was actually able to kill an elite Jonin, who was none other than Raiga Kurosuki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

And surprisingly, it was able to suppress the rampaging Naruto.

The Third Hokage was naturally very familiar with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

After all, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are an extremely powerful force in Kirigakure.

He was extremely famous during the Third Shinobi World War, although he was reduced to one of the Three Musketeers by Might Guy.

But the third generation is very clear about their strength.

Everyone there is an elite Jonin, and with the help of the ninja sword, some can even reach the Kage level.

Although Matt Day killed all four of them, it was a fight to the death.

If we were to use normal methods, even Kakashi wouldn't dare say he could kill them without a doubt.

What does it mean?

At this point, Yoru's strength had probably reached that of an elite Jonin.

It hasn't been that long.

After Kakashi finished speaking, the Third Hokage looked at Yoru.

"Yoyu, it seems that being a genin is no longer suitable for you."

Ye Yu was stunned for a moment.

I don't know what "third generation" means. Does it mean he's getting a promotion?

But he has only carried out a few missions, and they were all D-level and C-level missions.

Seeing Yoru's expression, the Third Hokage smiled and said, "With your strength and ability, it's time to promote you to Chunin."

Kakashi, standing to the side, wore a delighted expression.

It wasn't because Ye Yu leveled up, but because after Ye Yu leveled up, it would be perfectly legitimate for him to take Ye Yu out of the village to carry out missions.

After becoming a Chunin, one is no longer considered a ninja trainee.

True ninjas don't necessarily need to follow a Jonin instructor.

They are completely independent individuals and can be recalled by Jonin at any time.

Given Kakashi's status, it wouldn't be so strange for him to want to recruit Yoru to go on a mission together.

After all, Kakashi wasn't Yoru's mentor Jonin, and he was often sent out on missions. It's hard to say whether Motoki Ichido had any objections.

It was also very strange to other ninjas.

But if Yoru were a Chunin, it would be a completely different story.

Kakashi can summon Yoru at any time.
