"The three of you, form a swastika formation. Leave the rest to me," Jiraiya shouted to Minato and the other two, then charged towards Ichiro Watanabe.
Hearing this, Minato and the other two immediately stood back-to-back to prevent a surprise attack from the ninjas.
"Haha, Jiraiya, do you think three newly graduated Genin can defeat my subordinates? They have one Jonin, one elite Chunin, and three Chunin. Guess how many breaths your students will last."
Ichiro Watanabe laughed wildly, even revealing the strength of his side. He didn't care at all; they had an absolute advantage.
Hearing this, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief. So that was all their strength. Then there was nothing to be afraid of. He could now fight Ichiro Watanabe with peace of mind.
After hearing Ichiro Watanabe's words, Minato began to plan. He decided to take the initiative and launch a surprise attack on one of them. As long as he killed that elite Chunin, the pressure on their side would be greatly reduced.
Then, he would take on the Jonin alone, and it wouldn't be too difficult for Mikoto Uchiha and Hayate Gekko to face the remaining three.
The new ability he had acquired a few days ago could finally be put to use. It was a skill rewarded by the system after his spirit development reached 60%.
"System, check the levels of the people on the other side."
Name: Saburo Watanabe
Age: 29
Ninjutsu: Lightning Release
Overall Strength: Jonin
...
Name: Passerby A
Age: 25
Ninjutsu: Lightning Release
Overall Strength: Elite Chunin
Not bad. The skill rewarded by the system was called Eye of Insight, which could be used to investigate the strength of others.
He hadn't used it before, and now it came in handy.
After confirming who the elite Chunin was, Minato didn't continue to investigate. Next, he just needed to take him out by surprise.
Minato then began to ponder, thinking of a countermeasure. How could he achieve a one-hit kill?
He could use the Flying Thunder God Technique combined with the Rasengan for a surprise attack, but he didn't know the Flying Thunder God: Level Two yet, which was very passive.
He could only increase his space development as soon as possible and strive to unlock the Flying Thunder God: Level Two.
After pondering for a long time, a flash of inspiration appeared in Minato's mind. That's it! Since he couldn't carve a Flying Thunder God formula on a kunai to use the Level Two Flying Thunder God, then he could have a shadow clone run over, carve a Flying Thunder God formula on the ground near that elite Chunin, and then launch a surprise attack. That should work.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Minato immediately created four shadow clones and then charged towards those ninjas.
Three of the shadow clones served as decoys, while the remaining one rushed towards that elite Chunin.
"Poof! Poof! Poof!"
The three shadow clones that served as decoys were destroyed one by one by that Jonin, but Minato didn't care. Instead, he showed a smile.
Because his real goal had been achieved. Before the last shadow clone was destroyed, it touched the ground with its hand and left a Flying Thunder God formula.
With a thought, Minato disappeared from his spot and then instantly appeared beside that elite Chunin.
"Rasengan!"
Under the stunned gaze of that elite Chunin, the Rasengan hit his heart head-on.
The powerful cutting force of the wind attribute instantly shattered the elite Chunin's heart.
"Gah!"
As his heart shattered, the elite Chunin spat out a large mouthful of blood, his eyes wide as he looked at Minato Namikaze, who was right in front of him. He didn't even know how he died.
In the end, because there was no warning at all, the elite Chunin fell with deep unwillingness, his eyes not closing even in death. It could be said that he died with a grievance.
After the one-hit kill, Minato quickly retreated and went to Mikoto Uchiha and Hayate Gekko's side.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for killing one elite Chunin. Random reward: Sealing Jutsu development +2%."
"Leave that Jonin to me. The remaining three Chunin are yours. With your elite Chunin strength, it shouldn't be a problem, right?" Ignoring the system prompt, Minato pointed at Saburo Watanabe.
"Although I can't compare to you, if I can't even handle three people, then I'm not qualified to be your teammate," Hayate Gekko said confidently.
Then, without waiting for Minato to continue, he called out to Mikoto Uchiha and charged towards those three Chunin.
Seeing this, Minato smiled faintly, then faced the Jonin with a solemn expression.
If he knew the Flying Thunder God: Level Two now, with his strength, he would definitely not take this Jonin seriously. Unfortunately, he didn't know it now and could only fight head-on with ninjutsu.
The opponent was a Lightning Release ninja. Using Wind Release was just right to counter him. The power of the A-rank ninjutsu, Rasengan, was also strong enough.
As long as he could seize the opportunity, he could win with a one-hit kill.
But he had just exposed the method of suddenly appearing with the Flying Thunder God. Saburo Watanabe would definitely be on guard. Now, he could only slowly create an opportunity.
"Kid, how dare you! You dare to block me alone? Killing a genius as young as you is the most satisfying. Killing you will definitely make Konoha heartache for a long time."
Saburo Watanabe looked at Minato with a ferocious smile. This bastard kid, he killed his fellow villager in front of him. I will definitely not let you go.
