Chapter 115: MSIN: Chapter 114

"So you just ran away from Sasori?" Kushina's eyes seemed to hold a hint of displeasure.
Her tone also carried a sense of impending eruption.
Although this was top-secret information, Kushina was clearly not within the scope of confidentiality for Haori.
He appeared calm and collected on the surface, but he had subtly shifted his butt away from Kushina…
He had to avoid getting punched.
He picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip before saying slowly, "What else could I do?"
"What do you mean what else? Kill him! Kill him! He was practically begging to be beaten. And that Yashamaru earlier, you were about to take her down, why did you give up?"
"Cough…"
Haori almost choked on his own saliva. He looked at Kushina with a sidelong glance. It was easy to say, but was it really that simple? That was Sasori.
Could you talk him to death?
Yashamaru, well, you could probably take her down with some effort. But Sasori, not to mention the outcome of the battle, if you really wanted to take him down, Haori would have to go all out.
"Kushina-sensei, that's Sasori, the puppet master, an S-rank missing-nin, a proper Kage-level powerhouse. Me?" Haori said, pointing a finger at his head, "Just a Chunin, a fresh one at that. Can I even compare to him? Considering I'm alive, I should be awarded the Best Escape of the Year award."
Be reasonable, okay? And do you know how violent you're being, Minato?
"Tsk, if I were there, I could take down two Sasoris." Kushina said with a pout.
Although her tone seemed dismissive, she also knew that she was just talking big. She did have confidence in fighting Sasori, but as for playing one-on-two against two Sasoris? That was impossible.
Although Haori explained the situation at the time lightly, Kushina could feel the danger of the battle.
Indeed, it was good enough to escape.
"That's right, if we teamed up, master and disciple, not to mention Sasori, we could take down Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, without a problem."
Haori's flattery was a bit shameless.
Even Kushina was embarrassed to pick up on that. Take down Sunagakure? Release the Nine-Tails?
"And according to the mission you gave me earlier, I've already told Sasori your name."
There's actually an explanation for Haori's previous act of revealing his identity.
Kushina has a small goal, which is to make her name known throughout the ninja world, at least surpassing the Golden Flash.
It's her own name, not her identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki. The latter was something that had already been achieved.
But she couldn't participate in the war herself, so this mission fell to Haori, her disciple.
This was actually just a joke. Ninjas should be stealthy. Being famous in the ninja world is technically a debuff, but Haori took it seriously.
Not to mention acting in the name of Kushina's disciple. For him, directly impersonating Kushina would be fine.
"Really?"
This question is worth exploring, but before Kushina could speak, a call for Haori came from outside.
Haori obviously expected this.
"Teacher, I'm leaving now. I'll probably be in Konoha for a few days. I have something I need to take care of right now."
The person outside looking for Haori was Might Guy.
Haori bid farewell to Kushina, went outside, and greeted Guy.
Then, the two of them chatted as they walked in a certain direction.
They were talking about the battlefield, of course.
Haori had been active on the Western Front, while Guy had been in a team with his father, active on the Kirigakure front line. After graduation, the two of them rarely saw each other, at least much less often than they saw Obito.
As for Guy and Dai returning to Konoha together during a break from their mission, there was a good reason.
Two father and son, both in the same… same Chunin exam.
Yes, it was Chunin Exam season again.
Logically, it's wartime now. You can actually determine whether a ninja can be promoted based on their performance on the battlefield. The battlefield is more proof of a ninja than the exam hall.
For example, Haori was directly promoted by the Third Hokage.
But considering certain factors, this kind of exam-based Chunin selection was still retained, although it was only once a year.
Might Dai was a Genin, and Might Guy was also a Genin, so it's not contradictory for them to take the exam together.
But even with the exam, the priority is still on the missions of front-line ninjas. For example, Yugao was on a mission with Team Haori, so she didn't receive a notice for the exam.
As dusk approached, Haori and Guy stopped at a training ground.
"Guy, you need to think carefully. Since the Chunin Exam is about to start, if you choose to spar with me now, it will definitely affect your exam performance no matter what."
"Besides, isn't Kakashi your eternal rival?"
Haori gave his final persuasion.
"The Chunin Exam is certainly important, but testing whether my technique can work on a ninja like you is equally important. Kakashi is my eternal rival, and Haori, you are a wall in front of me."
"As for the Chunin Exam, what I'm going to use is a technique that's been sealed. I can't use it in the exam under any circumstances."
Guy spoke with a serious expression. Although he occasionally… cough, frequently, has the behavior of a rare animal, it doesn't mean he's really stupid.
Guy's father had always been a Genin, and Dai himself and Guy had been ridiculed for this for a long time. But Guy, after spending some time on the battlefield, had matured significantly. He had come to understand his father.
Guy's view of the Chunin rank was no longer the same. So, this exam was both important and unimportant to him.
The last time he fought Haori was in the graduation exam. He lost without a chance to fight back. But did he accept his loss?
He accepted it. The victory and defeat were clear. He naturally accepted it.
But did he accept it willingly?
Who would accept a loss willingly?
So, he said that Haori was a wall in front of him.
So, he wanted Haori to test his new technique.
And Haori agreed.
The two stood about ten meters apart, and Guy began to unwrap the bandages on his body.
"My father once taught me that this is a forbidden technique that cannot be used on comrades. But I think, Haori, you should be able to withstand this technique."
Guy's strength at this time was incomparable to his strength during the graduation exam.
He had grown rapidly in this period of time.
But he still felt that Haori could withstand his technique. It was just a hunch.
What was Guy's new technique? It goes without saying.
"Boom!"
Guy threw his weights to the ground.
"First Gate, Open!"
"Second Gate, Rest Gate!"
"Third Gate, Life Gate!"
"Fourth Gate, Injury Gate!"
To deal with Haori, Might Guy opened the first four gates of the Eight Inner Gates!
The Life Gate is the last safe zone of the Eight Inner Gates. From the fourth gate, the Injury Gate, the ninja's body will suffer damage. Because from the fourth gate onwards, the Eight Inner Gates are truly the Eight Inner Gates.
That's when they unleash their fundamental power.
Would Haori take such a technique lightly?
No. Almost at the same time that Guy began using the Eight Inner Gates, lightning began to flicker around Haori's body.
The iron sand behind him began to scatter around in clumps.
"A new technique? It seems that it's not just my strength that has improved."
Guy said with a hint of emotion. Of course, he wouldn't think that Haori would stand still. Only with mutual progress would this match have any anticipation.
"It's a new technique, sort of. It's called Iron Sand…"
Haori paused. Iron Sand Sword didn't sound right.
"It's called Raiden Yui"
"My new technique, Lightning Release: Raiden Yui."
Wow, this technique's name has a kind of young lady's aura, doesn't it?
Uh, I definitely won't admit that I just thought of it on the spur of the moment.
