After Kiyoshi went out, he took out the swordsmanship scroll and looked at it a few times.
It was called Kumogakure Style Swordsmanship : Swift Bird.
It's principle is very simple. It uses Lightning Release to activate the cells, so that the user's speed can temporarily increase.
"I have to prepare a sword."
Kiyoshi retracted the scroll and thought to himself.
He is not an official ninja yet, and he cannot get remunerations from missions.
At most, he can secretly get some scrolls from Kumogakure to enhance his strength.
Don't even think about ninja tools and money.
Anything beyond Kiyoshi's ability will immediately attract the attention of interested people, who will suspect where Kiyoshi got the things from.
Ninja tools need to be paid for by ninjas out of their own pockets.
Ninjas earn money by gambling with their lives, and they have to pay for the things they have to use during missions themselves.
Only kunai and shuriken, these relatively low-cost ninja tools, are the mainstream for normal ninjas.
Even the Uchiha clan, a large clan, won't provide everything to their ninjas.
In Itachi Shinden, Shisui's father's leg was broken during a mission.
At that time, the young Shisui had to earn money to support his family.
This shows how big the expenses of ninjas are.
And then there's Kiyoshi.
The living expenses given by the Uchiha clan every month can only guarantee Kiyoshi's most basic needs.
Saving some small money to eat snacks is okay, but buying expensive ninja tools like a sword is impossible.
'If I can't get my hands on a real sword, I'll have to make do with a wooden sword.' Kiyoshi thought to himself.
Anyway, before graduating from Ninja School, using a wooden sword is enough.
After becoming a Genin, he can take on missions and buy a real iron sword.
"Kiyoshi!"
Just as Kiyoshi was worried about money, a voice called his name came from a distance.
Kiyoshi looked back and saw that it was Kurenai.
"What's the matter?" Kiyoshi said lightly.
He had a preference for mature women. Kurenai was too young.
"Last time...last time didn't you say that you would like to test genjutsus with me when you had time?"
Kurenai's red eyes stared at Kiyoshi, and her red lips slightly opened.
Kiyoshi tried to recall, and remembered that there was indeed such a thing.
During this period of time, in order to get the Trait [Strong Physique] as soon as possible, he had been practicing Lightning Release: Iron Skin.
So, he had forgotten this unimportant matter.
"Eh, could it be that you had forgotten?" Kurenai frowned slightly.
She had attached great importance to this matter, and had reviewed a lot of information.
But Kiyoshi didn't pay the slightest heed to this?
"...Okay."
Kiyoshi nodded.
At Ninja School, he had no chance to use genjutsu.
The teachers only taught very basic genjutsu.
Kiyoshi then agreed to Kurenai's request and followed her to a less crowded training ground.
"Isn't that Kiyoshi?"
Obito, who was helping an old lady, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
That dark blue robe, and that height, which is only a little greater than his...
Obito could no longer forget Kiyoshi's back.
Every time he saw Kiyoshi and Rin discussing some ninjutsu insights, he couldn't get a word in.
He regretted not studying when he needed to. Obito could only sulkily listen to them talk while standing behind them.
He didn't understand.
How could a person be good in taijutsu and theoretical knowledge at the same time?
Is this really someone from the Land of Lightning?
Obito was a little suspicious that this was false information.
Since Kiyoshi had come to school, he had been making rapid progress.
For Obito, who has always been at the bottom in his class, Kiyoshi was more like a genuine Uchiha than him.
Because most of the ninjas of the Uchiha clan are... elites.
"When did he get to know Kurenai?"
Obito thought for a while, but couldn't figure out how Kiyoshi had gotten involved with the eldest daughter of the Yuhi clan.
"Obito, thank you so much."
The old lady's trembling voice sounded.
"Ah, it's okay."
Obito waved his hand with a smile, indicating that these were all just small things.
In fact, he liked the feeling of being recognized and praised.
"Still helping an old lady?"
Asuma put his hands in his pockets, wearing a brown jacket, with a candy stick sticking out of his mouth.
Whenever there wasn't something in his mouth, Asuma felt uncomfortable.
(T/N: Pause)
"By the way, have you seen Kurenai?" Asuma added before Obito could answer.
"She went to that small forest with Kiyoshi." Obito pointed in a direction and said.
"With Kiyoshi?" Asuma raised his voice.
That's not right.
How did Kiyoshi get to know Kurenai?
"Anyway, they went over there."
Obito hurriedly said, and helped the old lady leave.
He looked down on Asuma, this kind of dandy prince.
He follows around Kurenai every day.
He's just a simp.
That could never be him.
Asuma immediately ran in the direction Obito had pointed.
...
After arriving in a secluded forest, Kurenai turned to look at Kiyoshi.
Kurenai asked, "Are you ready?"
"Ready."
Kiyoshi nodded.
"Okay."
Kurenai made a hand seal, and then took out three shurikens from the bag behind her waist.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The shurikens sped towards Kiyoshi.
Kiyoshi's black pupils quickly turned a few times, and then he took out a kunai to deflect the shurikens.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three shurikens fell to the ground, stuck in the mud.
This was just the beginning of the battle, or in other words a warm up.
Since they had decided to test each other's genjutsu, the battle won't be limited to these.
The next moment, Kurenai waved her kunai and came towards Kiyoshi.
Kiyoshi used his kunai to block her attack.
The two black kunais stayed in a deadlocked for some time.
'So strong...'
Kurenai thought to herself.
It seems that Kiyoshi has practiced a lot of taijutsu in private.
He was so strong that her wrist felt a little painful.
It seems that she has to use that technique...
Taking advantage of the kunai stalemate, a clone suddenly emerged from behind Kurenai.
The clone looked exactly like Kurenai, but with pink cherry blossoms around her.
Hell Viewing Technique!
Kurenai's clone waved her kunai and stabbed at Kiyoshi.
"This technique..."
Kiyoshi recognized the genjutsu Kurenai was using.
This is the genjutus passed down from the Yuhi clan.
This move had even appeared in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm.
Hell Viewing Technique has attack functions on the basis of the clone technique.
It can make the target feel real pain.
'Why isn't he trying to dodge?' Kurenai wondered in her heart.
She had already launched an offensive, but Kiyoshi seemed to be stunned.
He was just standing there, still blocking in a kunai confrontation with Kurenai.
No other measures were taken.
In the blink of an eye, Kurenai became more and more puzzled.
When the clone's kunai was about to stab Kiyoshi, Kurenai immediately prepared to release the genjutsu.
"This genjutsu is good, but it's level doesn't seem to be very high."
Kurenai felt a warm breath behind her neck.
Kurenai's pupils shrank.
Kiyoshi is behind her!
