Chapter 38 The Pressure of the Three-Tomoe Jewel
"Mikoto-sensei, I'm coming!" Shinzuki Seiun reminded him, and then rushed forward.
"Clang clang clang!!!" Sparks flew again.
The two figures clashed rapidly in the training ground. Shingetsu Seiun constantly changed his form, while Uchiha Mikoto waited patiently in place.
Outwardly, it seemed no different from the fight with Sarutobi Asuma just now. In fact, Shingetsu Seiun's aura was not as strong as Sarutobi Asuma's when he was burning with anger.
Only Uchiha Mikoto could perceive the difference.
The power of the Divine Moon Nebula is very strong.
It is at least heavier than Sarutobi Asuma's power.
Not only her strength, but also her changes in techniques and reactions when weapons clashed exceeded Uchiha Mikoto's expectations. The strength she displayed was clearly greater than her performance as cannon fodder during yesterday's assessment.
"Didn't I use my full strength before?" Mikoto Uchiha wondered to herself.
Feeling the force transmitted from Shenyue Xingyun's swinging kunai, she made a silent assessment.
Good physical skills!
In terms of close-combat taijutsu alone, the opponent's performance is enough to deal with most genin.
With such strength, in an environment like a ninja academy, aside from rare prodigies, there should be no rivals.
How could they be rated as the worst performer? Are all school teachers useless?
During her contemplation, her attention momentarily relaxed.
Shenyue Xingyun's eyes lit up instantly!
He gripped the kunai tightly and lunged forward in an instant!
Mikoto Uchiha reacted instantly. Instead of panicking, she crossed her arms and slashed horizontally to both sides.
"Clang! Clang!" Two crisp sounds rang out almost simultaneously as the hands opened wide, knocking the kunai out of Shen Yue Xing Yun's hands.
She thought the battle was over, but Shenyue Xingyun didn't think so.
All those previous attacks were just waiting for this opportunity! Taking advantage of Uchiha Mikoto's wide-open neck, he channeled his chakra, and the Lv1 "Great Kabuto" was suddenly activated, bursting forth with power once again under the enhancement of Lv1 taijutsu.
"Swoosh!" Her hands flashed out in a blur, rushing towards Uchiha Mikoto's shoulders.
She didn't slap him in the face, because that would damage Mikoto Uchiha's image. She didn't hit him in the center, because that would damage his image.
Hitting his shoulder, though not a vital spot, would achieve his goal—to demonstrate his strength and value to the fullest extent, thus making Uchiha Mikoto realize that he was not a dispensable scapegoat.
Therefore, it receives attention in subsequent guidance, teaching, and task execution.
As for our trump cards... I don't have any concerns about that for now.
Firstly, he's too weak right now, and secondly... as long as he continues to date, the system will keep dealing him cards.
"Snap!" A crisp sound.
However, it was not Shingetsu Seiun's attack that was effective. Just as her hands were about to strike his shoulders, Uchiha Mikoto's eyes suddenly sharpened, and then she withdrew her hands. With a speed that Shingetsu Seiun was amazed by, she struck first and quickly locked Shingetsu Seiun's hands.
A sense of foreboding suddenly rose in Shenyue Xingyun's heart.
He looked up and met Uchiha Mikoto's gaze. At that moment, the sharpness in the beautiful woman's eyes crumbled.
A flash of surprise crossed his eyes, followed by a sharp contraction in his pupils! Shenyue Xingyun was able to observe the change in the other party's eyes up close. Then, his pupils turned deep red, and three jet-black tomoe appeared, spinning rapidly within them.
Shingetsu Nebula: "!!"
Scared.
The moment the three-tomoe Sharingan appeared, a tremendous sense of danger rose from the bottom of his heart, as if what was in front of him was not a person, but a terrifying beast.
One thought from the other party could cost me my life.
The hairs on my back stood on end.
For the first time, he faced the undisguised power and pressure of the formidable Jonin and felt his own insignificance and vulnerability.
The stronger the friction, the stronger the passive effect of the succubus's hand. Uchiha Mikoto's hand was locked tightly, so Shingetsu Seiun could clearly see the three tomoe trembling slightly. Under the gaze of the Sharingan, Shingetsu Seiun suddenly had a thought: he should insist on wearing gloves.
While he was marveling at the overwhelming power of the three-tomoe Sharingan, Mikoto Uchiha's heart was far from at peace.
panic.
doubt.
The moment I locked the other person's hands in my grasp, a strange sensation came from my hands.
It's crispy and tingly.
It's somewhat like touching an electric shock, but not quite.
The electric current traveled from my fingertips straight to my heart.
A strange, unprecedented feeling caused her, who had been calm for so long, to suddenly lose control of her power.
The chakra seemed to be cheering, and the power of the eyes seemed to be singing.
She almost blurted out a murmur, but thankfully, at the crucial moment, her strong willpower and rationality as a Jonin allowed her to control her embarrassing behavior.
Only a soft, trembling breath escaped from his nose.
"Whoosh~"
Release your grip and quickly take two steps back!
She suppressed the signals of despair emanating from her body, shut down the Sharingan that had automatically activated in her eyes, and then looked at Shingetsu Seiun in front of her with extreme vigilance.
"What is that?!"
Seeing the red light fade from Mikoto Uchiha's eyes, Shingetsu Seiun breathed a sigh of relief and answered honestly.
"Mikoto-sensei".
"This is... a matter of physical constitution, and it's not convenient to go into details."
"A physical constitution issue?" Mikoto Uchiha wondered, her mind filled with doubt. "A strange bloodline limit?"
"No way! There's no such absurd bloodline limit in the ninja world!"
She stared intently into Shenyue Xingyun's eyes, and after realizing that he didn't seem to be lying, she struggled with her thoughts for a while before finally giving up the idea of getting to the bottom of things.
After all, the other party had planned to wear gloves, so it wasn't intentional. If it were a physical issue like a bloodline limit, she, as a teacher who had only recently joined the team, couldn't ask for details unless she reported it to the Hokage beforehand.
There are two students staring at each other in disbelief.
She took two deep breaths, suppressing her complicated feelings, and transformed back into the dignified Jonin leading the team.
"Your close-combat skills are quite good."
"Work harder in the future."
After the actual battle, Mikoto Uchiha had a general assessment of the three genin in the team.
Sarutobi Asuma has good talent, but her temperament is average. She looks mature, but she is impulsive and unruly. Her strength is not as good as she initially expected, and she is at the level of a normal genin.
The Japanese-style red character possesses decent illusion magic skills. She is quiet and intelligent, but lacks courage and close-combat ability. When used properly, she can be effective, but is easily targeted by surprise attacks.
Shingetsu Seiun, hmm... his taijutsu and assault skills are among the best of the genin, even comparable to some lackluster chunin. His Healing Palm Technique is also extremely valuable.
That face of his would probably be the target of enemy fire on the battlefield!
"Everyone's here." A familiar voice suddenly came from afar, interrupting Uchiha Mikoto's thoughts.
Shen Yuexingyun and the others turned to look, and at the doorway stood a tall man with a square face and a kind smile on his face.
"Did I disturb you?" the man said, walking into the courtyard on his own.
Behind him, a servant was carrying a tray with cut drinks and fruit.
