"You should be the one surrendering. Come on, you couldn't beat me before, and it's only been three days. Your strength can't have improved that much."
Looking at Yue Yan's concerned expression, Mei Terumī gritted her teeth in annoyance. She really wanted to rush forward and give him a good punch on his delicate face.
But considering their difference in strength, Mei Terumī temporarily gave up the idea.
Taking a deep breath to calm her mood and adjust her state, Mei Terumī assumed a combat stance.
Seeing this, Yue Yan sighed. It seemed a fight was inevitable.
"Let me make it clear. If I mess up your face, don't blame me, okay?"
Hearing this, Mei Terumī snorted.
"If you mess up my face, you'll spend the rest of your life running from me."
After saying that, Mei Terumī began to form hand seals. Facing Yue Yan, who was stronger than her, she didn't try to hide her abilities. She immediately spat out two blobs of 'thick phlegm'.
Lava Release: Lava Monster Technique!
While Yue Yan was dodging the strong acid, Mei Terumī used the Water Stream Whip to quickly close the distance to a point where she could attack Yue Yan but he couldn't easily get close to her.
Seeing that Mei Terumī planned to attack from medium to long range with the Water Stream Whip, Yue Yan curled the corner of his mouth.
Although Yue Yan was most proficient in the skills brought by the Pikachu Template and the derived ninjutsu, he had opened many green treasure chests during previous missions. Although he hadn't obtained any Pokémon templates, he had gotten many skills. This was a good opportunity to practice them.
Unlike Pokémon templates, these skills don't enhance the Pokémon's understanding of the skills. They are just simple skills, and it's difficult to derive and develop them even after learning.
Just like before, Yue Yan pretended to form a few random hand seals.
Water Release: Water Gun!
The Water Gun was a skill from Squirtle among the Pokémon.
Yue Yan spat out a high - speed water stream towards Mei Terumī.
During previous battles and the Chunin Exams, Yue Yan had only used Lightning Release, Gitai, and at most the Mystical Palm Technique. Mei Terumī had no idea he could use other elemental releases.
However, Mei Terumī quickly stopped caring. After all, while there were ninjas who specialized in a single elemental release, they were relatively rare. Most ninjas had two or three elemental releases. Considering Yue Yan's talent, it was normal for him to know some other elemental releases.
However, after some time, Mei Terumī changed her mind.
Water Release: Water Cannon!
Fire Release: Flame Ejection!
Wind Release: Air Slash!
Earth Release: Earthquake!
Lightning Release: Thunderbolt!
...
Yue Yan was like an indefatigable war machine. He kept releasing ninjutsu non - stop. In fact, he basically went through all five elemental releases, and what's more, the speed of his releases was very fast.
The pressure he exerted even made Mei Terumī start to doubt her life.
Although ninjas are born with one or two types of chakra attributes, they are not limited to using only their innate chakra attributes for ninjutsu and can acquire other types through post - natal learning.
However, compared to the chakra attributes obtained through postnatal training, the innate ones are more suitable for a ninja. Therefore, many ninjas specialize only in the ninjutsu of their own innate chakra attributes.
Someone like Yue Yan, who can easily use ninjutsu of all five chakra attributes, is extremely rare. In the ninja world, the most famous one with such ability is the Third kage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, known as the "Ninjutsu Doctor."
His proficient combination ninjutsu earned him the reputation of being the strongest Hokage of Konoha. As for how much of this reputation was exaggerated for the sake of his Hokage prestige, only he knows.
Tobirama: I'll just watch and keep my mouth shut.
Hashirama: I'm dying of laughter.
Back to the topic, as for Yue Yan, there's no need to worry about his chakra amount. It seems to be an endless supply. Moreover, he only forms hand seals casually to avoid trouble.
Yue Yan doesn't only know ninjutsu of the five attributes - wind, Lightning Release, earth, water, and fire. After all, Pokémon have far more attributes than the Hokage world. Yue Yan can even use grass - type skills to imitate Wood Release.
But it's just a thought. He clearly knows how obsessed the sly Tanzō is with Wood Release. Even if what he uses are just things like Seed Machine Gun and Razor Leaf, the sly Tanzō won't care.
Tanzō says, just tell me if what you used are plants, even if the vines and seeds are far from real Wood Release.
Although Yue Yan keeps using skills non - stop, their power is inferior to the skills he created based on the Pikachu Template. So he rarely used them before, and only did so today on a whim.
Of course, it's also possible that the skills he unlocked come from weak sources.
After all, for the same Water Gun skill, a Squirtle - like Pokémon can't compare to Kyogre.
If Yue Yan can unlock skills from powerful Pokémon in the treasure chest, he might change his battle style. For now, he can just have fun with it.
On Mei Terumī's side, after using Water Release to defend several times, she also noticed that compared to Lightning Release and close - combat, Yue Yan's other ninjutsu are just so - so.
Although she thought so, just taking the attacks passively was not a good solution, and it was definitely not feasible to rush up and take a hit head - on.
Mei Terumī glanced at the water left by Yue Yan's water - based skills around her. An idea came to her mind.
The plan was simple. Since you've given up your proficient close - combat and Lightning Release to fight me with ninjutsu, then I'll use ninjutsu too.
Mei Terumī formed hand seals, created two kage clones, and used Water Release with her clones.
"Water Release: Water Violent Wave!"
"Water Release: Water Fang Bullet!"
"Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
Seeing the incoming Water Release, Yue Yan quickly used his skills to respond.
He took a deep breath, and his chest swelled like a balloon. The next second, without caring about the chakra consumption, Yue Yan spat out a deluge of flames from his mouth.
Flame Jet, from the Charmander, was just the simplest form of flame, but with Yue Yan using a large and continuous amount of chakra, it was quite powerful.
When the towering water waves met the continuous flames, the only outcome was... water vapor...
Before the water vapor obscured his vision, Yue Yan suddenly noticed Mei Terumī curling the corner of her mouth. Right after that, he heard a loud shout.
"Water Release: Lightning Water Dragon Bullet!"
The roaring Karyū leaped out of the water, thrashed and roared, opened its huge mouth, and the sharp water - made fangs cut through the air with a whistling sound, trying to swallow Yue Yan in one bite.
This was not an ordinary Water Dragon Bullet, but a Lightning Water Dragon Bullet with chakra attributes of lightning added by Mei Terumī. Not only does it require fewer hand seals than the original Water Dragon Bullet, but it also has the same strong impact force as the original and is imbued with Lightning Bolt.
This ninjutsu was what Mei Terumī had practiced for a long time and was her ultimate trump - card, the most powerful ninjutsu. Even if it were a Chunin who was hit by this move, they would either die or be severely injured.
However, in Mei Terumī's surprised gaze, Yue Yan, who had been swallowed by the Lightning Water Dragon Bullet, transformed into a wooden stake.
"Shifting Body Technique!? When!?"
Just as Mei Terumī couldn't believe it, Yue Yan had teleported to her side and pressed a Kunai against her neck, just like the result of their previous battle.
"Surrender? But even if you surrender, there won't be any strawberry ice cream this time."
