Naruto: Starting with the Celebrity of Japan

In the following period, Mei Terumi gave Ranshu special training in Water Release techniques.

"Your affinity for water-style chakra is terrible. Here, touch this spot and feel what it's like to have abundant water-style chakra..."

"This posture is wrong! The hand seals need to be formed even faster!"

"That's it, hold on! Once there's enough water, release it all at once!"

"..."

Under Mei Terumi's comprehensive and thorough guidance, Ranshu felt that he was making rapid progress.

In particular, Ranshu's "affinity for water-style chakra," which Mei Terumi mentioned, is a trait that frequently appears in system rewards. Ranshu is rapidly improving in this area.

This is the benefit of the system, in addition to the abilities rewarded by the system.

Despite his shortcomings, Luanxiu is still able to improve his skills through his own learning.

Of course, there are still differences between the two.

Abilities acquired through cultivation are ultimately superficial and ineffective...

As for Luanxiu, he improved step by step with the help of the system's rewards!

Sit down!

……

While Ran Shu was diligently practicing Water Release with Terumi Mei, the other teammates in Minato's team were experiencing different circumstances.

Nohara Rin led Akimichi Tsutomu, and, in accordance with Ran Hide's orders, carried out operations along the central and northern front.

Logically speaking, the intensity of the battle here shouldn't be very high.

—With Ran Shu in charge in the central region and Obito leading the troops in the north, Rin should only have to face a small number of Kirigakure forces.

but……

Since Obito didn't go to the northern route at all, a large number of enemies from the northern route rushed towards Rin's location!

"Hold on, everyone! Once we repel this wave of enemies, we'll get supplies for the central front!"

Xiaolin wiped the sweat from her face and spoke to her subordinate ninjas.

The days of fighting had left her exhausted, but she still forced herself to keep going and managed to arrange everything perfectly.

Although Rin is not a combat-oriented ninja.

But in the last few days, her team has actually made the biggest contribution!

She was unaware that the strength of the enemy she was facing actually included a portion of the forces that Obito should have shared...

"Is it the same with Ranshu's battle situation...? No, they're facing an entire route of enemies, their situation should be much more difficult..."

Lin looked up at the distance and felt somewhat desperate about the current situation.

She felt that no matter how many enemies she killed, they would never be finished...

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Xiaolin took out a red firework signal stick from her pocket.

Before leaving, Ranxiu said that if she was in danger, she should set off red fireworks and Ranxiu would come back to save her...

"I'm... starting to feel the strain..."

Lin murmured with difficulty.

She hesitated, wondering whether she should ask Luanxiu for help right now.

"Sir, please rest for a bit! We'll have the troops retreat a short distance as a buffer!"

On the other side, seeing Lin's exhausted appearance, Akimichi Tsutomu couldn't help but feel sorry for her and offered her words of comfort.

But Xiaolin...

Upon hearing Akimichi Tsutomu's words, his eyes suddenly became even more determined!

"No!"

She decisively put the sparkler back, firmly rejecting Akimichi Tsutomu's suggestion.

"The more we put in, the less pressure they'll feel! I can still do it!"

After saying that, Lin cheered herself up and immediately headed to a more forward position.

Akimichi Tsutomu, who was left behind, had a very complicated look in his eyes!

He really didn't expect that this seemingly frail girl would have such a firm belief and such a strong will!

"Truly worthy of being Lord Minato's disciple... Having someone like him is a blessing for the Konoha ninja!"

Akimichi Tsutomu nodded and sighed sincerely.

……

However, Kakashi encountered a completely different situation in the lower part of the route!

"Sizzle!"

"Clang!"

The piercing crackling of electricity and the clashing of swords filled the air!

All the surrounding ninjas, whether from Konoha or Kirigakure, watched in astonishment as this dazzling battle unfolded.

"This is terrifying... This kid can actually fight... Lord Raiga to a standstill!"

The same thought is on everyone's mind.

That's right, Kakashi, with his strong momentum, has led Konoha's forces to attack the core of the Hidden Mist front!

Here, Kakashi faced one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and one of the three main offensive leaders of Kirigakure—

Black Hoshi Raiga!

"Lightning Release: Chidori!"

During the battle, Kakashi seized the opportunity and unleashed his signature ninjutsu at Raiga Kurosuki with lightning speed!

"It's...it's this thing again! Lightning Release: Lightning Armor!"

With no other choice, the green-haired Raiga Kurosugi crossed his Raiga sword, Fang, in front of him, adopting a defensive stance.

Unlike the original work, Kakashi did not obtain a Sharingan at the Kannabi Bridge.

This is a great weakening of his Thousand Birds.

Without the dynamic vision provided by the Sharingan, the accuracy and efficiency of Chidori's use have decreased significantly!

This also gave Kurozuki Raiga the opportunity to use his defensive stance.

In his Thunder Armor state, even Chidori couldn't touch him in the slightest!

However, correspondingly, without the Sharingan...

Kakashi also no longer suffers from physical weakness and lack of chakra, and is instead able to better utilize his talents!

Most importantly, Kakashi has overcome the inner demons of his father's suicide!

"Now I am like a bird soaring in the sky, a fish swimming in the sea, no longer bound by any constraints..."

Kakashi rushed up to Raiga Kurosuki and said calmly.

"White Fang Blade - Purple Lightning!"

In the next instant, a short sword crackling with purple lightning suddenly appeared!

If Ranxiu were here, it would be immediately obvious...

Kakashi's technique of imbuing his sword with lightning-attribute chakra through nature transformation is exactly the same application method as Akame!

From being unable to condense purple lightning in his hands, to now being able to freely attach purple lightning to his weapons...

Kakashi's progress in developing Shiden is simply terrifying!

White Fang's blade pierced Black Hoshino Raiga's lightning armor as easily as slicing through melons and vegetables.

A tooth-grinding, ear-piercing crackling sound rang out as the White Fang Blade pierced through the lightning defenses and plunged straight into Raiga Kuroe's shoulder!

"What...what is this?!"

Raiga Kurozumi was greatly shocked.

Fortunately, thanks to the defense of the Lightning Armor, Kakashi's blade tip deflected, preventing him from dying on the spot.

But Kakashi's appearance also means that he can no longer "hold a funeral" for Kakashi!

"How is that possible?!"

"Lord Raiga actually... actually..."

An uproar erupted from the Mist Village, their morale plummeting due to Raiga's setback.

Meanwhile, in Konoha...

"As expected of Lord Kakashi, the best in the Land of the Rising Sun!"

"Elbow him away! Lord Kakashi!"

Kurozuki Raiga took a few steps back.

During the attack on Konoha last year, he was almost kicked to death by that guy named Might Guy.

Since then, he has cherished his life even more.

But now, it seems the situation is turning bad again.

"What should I do? Should I push him to his limit?"

Kurozuki Raiga hesitated for a moment.

At this moment, a commotion broke out again in the already somewhat chaotic Kirigakure ninja force, so great that it inevitably attracted the attention of everyone present.

"What happened?"

Without prior arrangement, both Kurosuki Raiga and Kakashi turned warily toward the direction from which the commotion had arisen.

Soon, the source of the commotion was found: a stream of people suddenly parted in the crowd, and out of it walked a...

Half-human, half-fish...

Fishman?

"Whose subordinate is this?"

Kakashi didn't recognize the person who came.

But he clearly saw that the man was also wearing a Kirigakure headband, which meant that he was a member of Kirigakure.

"you?"

Of course, Raiga Kurosuki knew this person.

Shark eyes, shark gills, shark teeth, shark skin...

It was a fierce general under the command of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon—

Kisame Hoshigaki!

Kisame Hoshigaki, a Jonin of Kirigakure, a future S-rank rogue ninja, and a member of Akatsuki, wears the Nanto Ring.

With its unique and powerful Water Release and Kisame Style ninjutsu, it is known as the "Tailless Tailed Beast"!

One of the few true men in Naruto, a man who could force the adult Might Guy to open the Seventh Gate!

"Hmph, who is this? How come he's sweating buckets just from fighting a brat? Raida Kiba is truly unworthy to be with you!"

Kisame walked into the battlefield between Kakashi and Raiga Kurosuki, and sneered at Raiga Kurosuki.

"Get out of here!"

"Black Hoe Raiya cursed."

However, Kisame's appearance made him realize that his own line of combat was ineffective, and he had reached the point where he needed the help of Suigetsu Hobutsu's men to save the day.

"You can go now. I'll deal with this brat over there."

Kisame wasn't angry. Instead, he turned to face Kakashi and continued speaking.

Hei Chu Lei Ya was furious.

He was clearly the leader of this route, yet he was being bossed around by Kisame.

He said indignantly:

"You're going to fight? What am I supposed to do then?!"

Kisame stepped forward a few paces, then replied calmly in a strange accent:

"Wash my ninja shoes."
