"I don't believe you're this strong now. I want to have a fight with you."
Upon receiving Obito Uchiha's Duel Invitation, Yue Yan shrugged.
"I don't really care. It's just that Senior Brother Minato Namikaze and I are waiting for our teammates."
"It's okay, Yue Yan." Minato Namikaze stepped forward and stood beside Obito Uchiha. "The others should take some time to arrive. You can just train Obito Uchiha in actual combat."
Minato Namikaze looked at Obito Uchiha, patted his head, and showed a somewhat helpless smile.
"Obito Uchiha has the strength, but his hot - bloodedness of rushing at the enemy at the sight of them will easily get him into trouble."
Minato Namikaze was being pretty diplomatic about it, and Yue Yan understood that Minato Namikaze wanted him to teach Obito Uchiha a lesson.
In the original story, Obito Uchiha had been on the battlefield several times. But with Minato Namikaze always by his side, he couldn't shake off his impulsive nature.
Suddenly having an idea, Yue Yan showed a mischievous smile and agreed to Minato Namikaze's request.
"Sure."
Hearing this, Obito Uchiha felt as if he was enveloped by some kind of Malice, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable all over. But with his simple mind, he obviously couldn't figure out why, and he didn't need to.
After Obito Uchiha and Yue Yan finished forming the opposing hand - seals, Yue Yan instantly activated his Thunder Beast transformation.
Obito Uchiha only had time to see Yue Yan's figure suddenly grow, and then he turned into a flash of golden light and disappeared from sight. All he could hear were a series of Lightning Bolt explosions and Yue Yan's loud roar.
Konoha Gitai Ultimate Technique! One Thousand Years of Death!
The moment it hit the target, Obito Uchiha felt an indescribable, terrifying pain. He let out a howl and flew out, kneeling on the ground in a slumped, defeated pose. Thanks to the Lightning Bolts from the Thunder Beast, Obito Uchiha couldn't stop twitching.
This was already the result of Yue Yan being afraid of really hurting Obito Uchiha and not manifesting the Thunder Beast's claws. Otherwise, Obito Uchiha wouldn't just have flown out; he would have been stabbed through.
At this time, Yue Yan deactivated the Thunder Beast form, came in front of Obito Uchiha, squatted down, and patted his face.
"Understood? This is the gap between us now. Don't rush at anyone you see in the future. After all, you don't know the enemy's information. Otherwise, this is what will happen if you rush up rashly."
Hearing this, Obito Uchiha wanted to say "Damn it", but the numbness caused by the Lightning Bolts made his lips tremble uncontrollably, and he couldn't say a single word.
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze was a bit helpless.
"Yue Yan, did you go a bit too far?"
Hearing this, Yue Yan shrugged indifferently.
"Senior Brother Minato Namikaze still doesn't understand Obito Uchiha. If I don't be tough on him, he won't have a deep impression."
In response, Minato Namikaze could only smile awkwardly and then changed the subject, saying, "By the way, that was the rumored Thunder Beast just now, right? It's really a powerful ninjutsu. Just now, your burst speed was almost as fast as when I use the Flying Thunder God Technique."
"Rumor?"
Noticing Yue Yan's confused expression, Minato Namikaze explained, "It spread from the Mist Ninja Village before. They said there was a beast in our Konoha, bathed in golden Lightning Bolt. Then they gave you the title of Thunder Beast."
Beside them, Kakashi, who was listening to the conversation between Minato Namikaze and Yue Yan, couldn't help clenching his fists.
When Obito Uchiha said he wanted to have a match with Yue Yan before, Kakashi also wanted to give it a try. After all, he had long wanted to see whether Yue Yan was more of a genius or he himself was.
But just now, Kakashi could only catch a glimpse of the golden electric light left in mid - air. Even with his self - developed Chidori, he was still slower than Yue Yan.
If they fought on the battlefield, Kakashi could at most block one move. Then, Yue Yan would kill him with his speed.
"Damn it. Has Yue Yan become so strong? He was so ordinary before. What on earth was the point of my applying for early graduation and joining the Anbu?"
Out of the corner of his eye, seeing Kakashi walking aside silently to practice, Yue Yan didn't care and continued chatting with Minato Namikaze.
About ten minutes later, the other members of the team arrived. They were Shibi Aburame and Chōza Akimichi.
The two had cooperated with Minato Namikaze on many occasions before, so they were very familiar with each other. Then they turned their eyes to Yue Yan, the only one they didn't know in the group.
Before Yue Yan could say anything, Minato Namikaze put his hand on Yue Yan's shoulder and introduced him to the two.
"This is the new member of our team, Hongchi Yue Yan. He is also my junior brother."
Hearing this, Shibi and Chōza were stunned. They never thought that Yue Yan was also a disciple of Jiraiya. Maybe he would be a genius like Minato Namikaze.
However, considering the difficulty of the mission and Yue Yan's age, Shibi still asked about Yue Yan's strength.
In response, Minato Namikaze gave his signature smile.
"Don't worry about Yue Yan's strength. After all, he is the Thunder Beast who single - handedly killed hundreds of enemies on the Mist Ninja battlefield."
This really shocked Shibi and Chōza. They originally thought that the Thunder Beast was a Jonin in the village who was good at Lightning Release, but they never expected it to be such a young boy.
In the ninja world, strength is respected. Shibi and Chōza didn't act like senior ninjas. They reached out their hands to show their friendliness.
"Chōza Akimichi. I'm good at the Multi - Size Technique and Mystical Palm Technique. I'm responsible for breaking through the enemy's defenses and attracting firepower."
"Shibi Aburame. I'm good at the Insect - Manipulation Technique. I'm in charge of reconnaissance and tracking."
"Hongchi Yue Yan. I'm good at Lightning Release and Mystical Palm Technique. I think I'm more suitable for fighting at the front and treating the wounded."
Hearing this, Chōza blinked in confusion. He never thought that Yue Yan, who had earned the reputation of the Thunder Beast, could also use the Mystical Palm Technique. Well, it was a good thing. If someone got injured, the pressure of treating the comrades would be much less.
"Alright! Let's exchange tips on the Mystical Palm Technique when we get the chance."
Just then, Minato Namikaze patted Chōza on the shoulder and said jokingly, "Chōza, your Mystical Palm Technique might not be as good as Yue Yan's. After all, on the battlefield against the Sand Ninjas, thanks to Yue Yan cracking Chiyo's highly poisonous substance, we were able to win."
Hearing this, Chōza's small eyes widened in disbelief.
Meanwhile, Shibi suddenly realized and said, "There was a rumor in Konoha Hospital before. It said that there was a medical ninja with extremely powerful abilities, and his name seemed to be Yue Yan."
"It's all thanks to Aunt Natsuki and the others who taught me well," Yue Yan said modestly.
Hearing this, Chōza was a bit speechless.
"Being able to crack Chiyo's highly poisonous substance is not just about being taught well. You've already become a medical ninja who can handle things independently."
After chatting for a few more words, seeing that the team members had gotten familiar with each other, Minato Namikaze, as the team leader, set off for the battlefield in the Land of Lightning.
When they reached the edge of the battlefield, Yue Yan and the others found a Cloud Ninjas team ahead.
Shibi, who was in charge of sensing, used hand gestures to convey the information that there were no Jonin among the enemy.
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze looked at Yue Yan.
"Yue Yan, do you want to have a competition?"
Hearing this, Yue Yan was stunned for a moment and then realized that Minato Namikaze, after seeing the Thunder Beast Mode, wanted to see his real strength.
"They're just a bunch of useless guys. It's too wasteful to use the Thunder Beast Mode. However, since Senior Minato Namikaze wants to have a competition, of course it's okay."
After saying that, Lightning Flash crackled around Yue Yan's body. He instantly activated the Gale Lightning Mode and charged forward like a bolt of lightning.
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze also threw out several Kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Just as the sounds of "swish swish swish swish swish!" and the crackling of Lightning Flash rang out, this Cloud Ninjas team was taken care of.
This scene left Shibi and Chōza dumbfounded.
