My Ninja Cat Thought I Was Weak, So I Stole Thunder Fruit

Chapter 23 I want to know what your Shinobi is, Hefeng!

Thinking of the task assigned to him by Third Hokage, Shisui suddenly had a whim.

It is better to hit the sun than to choose the day.

Anyway, there are still a few hours before the evening clan meeting.

It is enough for him to test whether Hefeng has the strength of Jōnin here.

certainly……

Shisui has always acted aboveboard.

Even Distinguished Heavenly Gods can easily confess to Konoha's senior management.

Not to mention just evaluating Hefeng.

So, Shisui went straight to the point, "Master Hokage wants me to give you a Jōnin assessment."

"If you can pass this test, you can officially become a Konoha Village Jōnin."

"Served the village."

While speaking, Shisui and Hefeng looked at each other with a frank tone and eyes full of expectation.

In his opinion, this is a rare opportunity for Hefeng.

But in Hefeng's mind, he had another idea.

"At this juncture, the Jōnin assessment is being conducted on me..."

Hefeng raised his eyebrows.

Today's me has a record of destroying the Cloud Shinobi team and counter-killing Aburame Ryoma.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see whether they have Jōnin strength.

Moreover, the turmoil between Konoha and Cloud Shinobi Village has not subsided.

Promote yourself as Jōnin at this time.

It is tantamount to announcing to other people in Konoha's senior management.

Hiruzen didn't intend to hand over himself as the murderer.

At the same time, Hiruzen can also use Shisui to test his true strength.

Hefeng thought to himself.

The Shisui in front of him naturally became a gun of Third Hokage.

"However, this is a good opportunity for me."

Hefeng took a deep look at the anticipation in Shisui's eyes.

The so-called temptation has never been a one-sided thing.

Since Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to use Shisui to test his strength, he can also take this opportunity.

See how big the gap is between yourself and Shisui.

"OK."

Thinking of this, the corners of Hefeng's mouth rose, and a ray of light shot out from his eyes.

boom!

In the next second, blue lightning visible to the naked eye burst out from Hefeng's body, continuously wandering on his feathers.

"Here it is, Shisui."

While speaking, Hefeng took a step forward and approached Shisui.

In an instant, Shisui's pupils shrank rapidly, and the muscles on his body tensed up.

Just a moment ago, he felt that Hefeng standing there was harmless.

But in the blink of an eye, the aura emanating from Hefeng's body was like a ferocious beast.

An astonishing sense of oppression swept in all directions.

Startled the birds in the forest and fled in a hurry!

"What a terrifying aura..."

Shisui gasped slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Looking back at the time when I participated in the third Ninja World War, there were not a few master ninjas I met.

But few people can make themselves feel such a strong sense of oppression.

"Hefeng's Lightning Style, is it so scary?"

at the same time……

In Hokage's office in Konoha Center in the distance.

Since Shisui left the Hokage Building, Sarutobi Hiruzen used the Telescope Technique.

Secretly observe the conversation between Shisui and Fugaku.

And became interested in the clan association mentioned by Fugaku.

He simply put aside his daily work and concentrated on observing Shisui's movements at the Uchiha station.

What he didn't expect was that...

Shisui actually met Hefeng at the training ground near the Nanhe River, and directly asked Hefeng for the Jōnin assessment.

And the latter is more than happy to accept.

Burst out of his own Lightning Style...

"When did this Uchiha Hefeng master such a powerful Lightning Style?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen squinted his eyes half-closed, carefully looking at Hefeng who appeared in the center of the crystal ball.

Especially after the troubled night of Nine Tails.

He and Danzo reached a consensus to monitor the Uchiha clan.

Not only did he convince Shisui to act as a double agent, he also sent Anbu ninjas.

Danzo also dispatched some root ninjas.

It stands to reason that Hefeng, who has mastered such an exquisite Lightning Style ninjutsu, should have been exposed to their sight long ago.

But neither Anbu nor Root had noticed Hefeng's true strength in advance!

"If you think about it this way, this brat, Hefeng, is really powerful."

However……

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not the only one who hid in the dark and observed the contest between Hefeng and Shisui.

In the forest near the Nanhe River, there are several root ninjas hiding, watching Hefeng closely.

When they saw Hefeng showing off his own Lightning Style, their eyes couldn't help but be horrified.

Because no one has seen Hefeng raise his hand or seal his seal.

From the looks of it, Hefeng seemed to use an idea to produce such shocking power!

If it was any closer to Hefeng, even normal breathing would be affected.

It's just that what these root ninjas don't know is...

The moves Hefeng uses are not Lightning Style at all.

Rather, it is Thunder Fruit's ability.

As he entered this state, his radio characteristics also came into play.

In just a split second, Hefeng noticed someone hiding in the grove.

"Is it from Danzo?"

Hefeng guessed in his heart.

If it were the rest of the Uchiha clan, they wouldn't be so sneaky.

And since Third Hokage asked Shisui to test himself.

Then there is really no need to send Anbu ninjas.

Instead, Danzo's roots, most likely.

But Hefeng didn't bother to expose the opponent's tricks.

"Are you ready, Brother Shisui?"

Hefeng faced Shisui head-on, ready to strike at any time.

"Hefeng, your Lightning Style is really different."

Shisui spoke slowly, not in a hurry to make a move.

"Among the Lightning Style ninjas I've met, I've never met an opponent like you."

"but……"

"Before the official fight, I have one more question."

"I want to ask you."

Shisui drooped his hands naturally, and said with a slightly condensed gaze.

Hefeng nodded, indicating that Shisui doesn't mind asking.

As long as the question is not too outrageous, I can answer him.

After seeing Hefeng's acquiescence, Shisui finally asked what he was confused about.

"I want to know, what is your ninja way?"

The so-called ninjutsu is actually the spiritual sustenance produced by ninjas when they practice ninjutsu.

It can also be understood as a kind of belief.

Any excellent ninjutsu has its own way of ninjutsu.

Shisui spread his hands, and there was no confusion in his eyes, "Ninjas are nameless people who support peace in the dark, but using weapons to force people into submission and maintaining order by violence is not peace at all."

"This is my ninja way."

In fact, what Shisui said was to show Hefeng his position and awareness.

It is also a rebuttal to Hefeng's previous sentence "Peace through struggle will lead to peaceful existence, and peace through compromise will lead to peaceful death".

Peace gained through armed struggle is not true peace.

And this is why Shisui has never recognized Uchiha's nationalism.
