White Fang realized it late and chased after him, and finally caught up with Muramasa's speed!
嗏
With the help of Hatake Sakumo's strength, White Fang's blade was suppressed tightly!
The explosive power from the Thousand Hands increased Qingshui's strength several times with this one sword, and he took the initiative to break through Hatake Sakumo's defense in one breath!
Muramasa suppressed White Fang, and the whole slender samurai sword seemed to become violent, with a bloodthirsty intention, as if it wanted to chop White Fang's short sword and Hatake Sakumo into pieces together!
The chakra in Hatake Sakumo's body was raging, and his speed reached the limit in an instant. With the help of Muramasa's power, he moved as far away from the blade as possible and narrowly avoided the knife!
"How is it possible... Father was actually defeated by Uchiha Qingshui!"
Kakashi was bewildered. This scene was beyond his understanding.
In the past training with his father, no matter how hard Kakashi tried, Hatake Sakumo would always stand there with a smile on his face, not even moving, and easily dispelled his attacks.
For a long time, Kakashi's short-term training goal was to see Hatake Sakumo move when he practiced with him...
Blood flowed from Hatake Sakumo's chest, and a shallow but clearly visible cut pierced through his clothes.
Qingshui let out a long breath slowly. He felt respect from the bottom of his heart for Hatake Sakumo's strength.
This strike can be regarded as the full force of Qingshui swordsmanship.
With the combination of super strength, Sharingan and other first-sight killing moves, Qingshui is confident that he can kill with one strike even against a three-magatama at the level of Uchiha Yashiro.
But even so, Hatake Sakumo still avoided the knife.
"Great, really great, Qing Shui Jun..." Hatake Sakumo casually lowered his head to look at the wound on his chest and said with a smile:
"Fortunately, you are still a child and your body is not yet fully developed. Otherwise, I would have to be rescued."
Qingshui shook his head. Although it was certainly due to his age that his immortal body was unable to unleash its full power.
But so what?
In the ninja world, for a genius to survive to adulthood is a great skill and one of the strongest talents.
When talent cannot be converted into strength, it is just worthless fame.
"Mr. Sakumo, please don't hold back. I want to see the true full strength of a ninja like you!"
Qing Shui looked at Hatake Sakumo seriously and said clearly and forcefully: "I am proficient in some medical ninjutsu, so you don't have to worry about my injuries. Just leave me a breath."
"Compared to Kakashi-kun, the chance to fight a ninja like you is rare for me, so it is especially precious."
Hatake Sakumo looked at the serious Qingshui silently for a long time before he said softly: "Qingshui-kun, you have a sincere heart."
"If that's the case, then if I refuse, it would be my arrogance."
Hatake Sakumo's aura subtly changed after he finished speaking.
The whole person became extremely dangerous and sharp, as if one's eyes would hurt and one's neck would feel cold when one saw him.
Suddenly!
Hatake Sakumo raised his white fangs, and slashing waves several people high roared out from the blade continuously, cutting through the ground in front of him at a speed that was extremely difficult to detect with the naked eye, sealing off the green water on all sides!
He himself turned into an afterimage, but the sharp blade of Bai Ya was restrained and barely detectable, waiting in his hand, staring at Qing Shui's vital points!
Hatake Sakumo, launched an attack in earnest!

"Father…"
After the battle, Kakashi looked at the scorched earth in confusion, "Did you release the water just now?"
Hatake Sakumo shook his head: "On the contrary, I am serious."
"The current Qingshui-kun is indeed unable to fight me head-on."
"But with his illusion and water escape techniques, if Qing Shui doesn't actively fight me, it will be very difficult for me to control him..."
"Come on, Kakashi. You may have met a genius peer."
"But Dad believes in you..."
But there was a hint of pity in Hatake Sakumo's eyes.
He didn't believe that Kakashi would surpass Qingshui one day.
In every generation of the ninja world, there is always a ninja with extraordinary talent who makes his peers feel extremely desperate and becomes the mountain that no one can climb.
Hatake Sakumo, who had the ability to judge people, vaguely felt that Qingshui seemed to be such a ninja.
Chapter 45: Confused Sarutobi Asuma, Courageous Fire II
"Little ghost, what are you thinking about? Why are you so silent?"
Senju Tobirama folded his arms, looked at Qingshui who was healing silently, shook his head and said:
"Your talent is already amazing enough. You don't want to defeat Hatake Sakumo in his prime at your age, do you?"
"A ninja of his level has abilities far beyond those of an ordinary jonin, and has already reached the level of a Kage..."
After Hatake Sakumo treated Qingshui with all his strength.
The terrifying continuous waves of slashing attacks and Hatake Sakumo's lightning-fast speed made Qingshui experience unprecedented pressure.
but.
With the high protection of water escape technique, the dynamic vision and illusion ability of Sharingan...
Although Qingshui found it difficult to launch an active counterattack against Hatake Sakumo, he was able to defend relatively calmly and always keep himself safe.
In Senju Tobirama's opinion, it is already very valuable for Qingshui to be able to achieve this at his age.
But Qingshui remained silent after the battle, looking like his defenses were broken, which made Tobirama a little dissatisfied.
"Tobirama, are you concerned about me?" Qingshui spoke slowly, with a hint of fatigue in his words.
"…I guess so. After all, you are a genius boy of Konoha. As the Second Hokage, it is normal for me to care about you."
Senju Tobirama paused, looking hesitant, but still said so.
Qing Shui's expression instantly changed from dull to funny:
"Then don't worry, Tobirama. I'm just thinking about what to eat tonight."
"I don't care whether I can defeat Hatake Sakumo, what I care about is whether he can hurt me."
"It seems that I am safe now. As long as I have enough survival ability to grow up, I don't think anyone in the ninja world will be my opponent in the future..."
Senju Tobirama's face darkened. He was worthy of being the evil Uchiha Aomi. Not only did he waste his feelings, but his confident look was exactly the same as that of a typical Uchiha clan member.
But in Tobirama's heart, he thought there was nothing wrong with Qingshui's words.
Apart from ninjas of the level of Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, who else can defeat Qingshui, the combination of Uchiha Izuna and him, when he grows up?
And Senju Tobirama didn't know at this moment that Uchiha Madara, whom he feared, also started to explode gold coins like him...
"Kid, you..."
"Qing Shui-kun, can you talk to me for a minute?"
Just as Senju Tobirama was about to counterattack Qingshui, Sarutobi Asuma crawled out from the grass next to him, looked at Qingshui with complicated eyes and pleading tone.
In that look, there was admiration, respect, nervousness, confusion, and even a little longing...
While Qingshui was sparring with Kakashi and Hatake Sakumo, Asuma was practicing the Sarutobi clan's fire escape technique in the training ground next door, using hard training to resolve the confusion in his heart.
But soon, he saw a huge fire burning in the training ground next door, and he was stunned for a moment.
So, Asuma saw Kakashi being killed instantly by Aomizu, and the scene where Aomizu and Hatake Sakumo fought...
He simply couldn't believe that Qing Shui, who was of the same age as him, could actually take on Hatake Sakumo's attack in an orderly manner!
That was Konoha White Fang, the war hero who killed his way through the Sand Village with a single sword for the village during the Second Ninja World War!
What troubles Asuma's heart is the will of fire, which Qingshui is best at.
Qingshui's test paper on the will of fire was widely publicized by the ninja school.
“…When the leaves of Konoha dance, the fire will never cease…”, it was framed on the wall of the ninja school as a conspicuous slogan.
Asuma had wanted to talk to Qingshui for a long time, but today's shock gave him the courage to overcome his inner hesitation.
Although he and Qingshui had no connection, he still came over boldly.
"Asuma-kun, if you want to talk to me, you can..."
Qingshui looked at Asuma, who looked like a rebellious teenager, and smiled gently.
This person is considered to be a very unique existence in the Naruto series.
As the son of the Third Hokage, and the only child after the Nine-Tails Rebellion, unless there is a major chaos, he will at least be a Konoha consultant in this life, and if he works a little harder, he will become the Hokage's assistant.
But Asma is not a person who follows the rules.
After the end of the Third Ninja World War, he once did things based on his own likes and dislikes, left Konoha to wander around, and even thought about the question of who was the real Jade.
In a sense, Asuma once questioned the underlying logic of the Will of Fire.
So, this is a very interesting ninja who tried to betray his own class.
"Where should we go to talk, Asuma-kun? Right here, or somewhere quieter..."
Qing Shui stared at the stunned Asuma and spoke softly.
"Please, please come with me, Qingshui-kun! This is really not a good place to talk!"
Asuma was indeed stunned. He did not expect Qingshui to agree to his request so readily and his words were so gentle.
This is the sense of oppression brought by strength.
In Asuma's mind, Qingshui, who was so powerful as his peer, should be proud and flamboyant. He was ready to beg Qingshui, but he never thought it would go so smoothly. Qingshui agreed to his request...
Asuma led Qingshui around and around until they reached a remote valley outside of Konoha Village. Looking at Qingshui's confused look, he scratched his head and explained awkwardly:
"It's safer here, Qingshui-kun."
"That old man can use ninjutsu to spy on the people in the village. This is the blind spot I found. It's also where I usually smoke, so it's safe here. We can say whatever we want..."
Qingshui laughed in his heart. Is Asuma so filial?
