I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

Time flew by, and soon it was April 2. The date for the joint training between the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu and the Third Hokage’s Anbu.

The drill revolved around infiltration, protection, and confrontation. Both sides would send out a standard Anbu Division.

Infiltration and protection counted as one. In the first round, the Third Hokage’s Anbu would be the defending side, and the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu would be the attacking side.

The attacker ought to sneak into the defender’s base and snatch the secret scroll in the base. If the attacker successfully stole it in four hours, they won. If it exceeded four hours, they lost.

In the second round, their role would be reversed.

As for the confrontation, it was a fight between the two sides.

It was not a one-on-one fight but a confrontation of the entire Division.

The joint training would be held on a large forest training ground.

After deciding to carry out the joint training, Minato ordered a team of Shinobi to quickly build a simple base there and encase it with iron wires.

The Third Hokage’s Anbu would enter first.

They were the defenders, so they were allowed to set up defenses first.

”Good luck.” Nagasawa patted Kakashi on the shoulder and encouraged him.

Because the composition of the training team was different from that of ordinary Anbu, Nagasawa appointed Kakashi as the Commander for this trainng.

”I won’t let you and Minato-sensei down,” Kakashi said in a deep voice, and his usually lazy dead-fish eyes were replaced by serious eyes.

Nagasawa smiled and nodded. Then he left and went to the monitoring room.

In addition to inside two kilometers diameter base surrounded by iron wires, there were also many surveillance cameras outside the iron wires, allowing others to see the attacker’s moves.

When Nagasawa arrived at the monitoring room, there were already several people in the monitoring room.

The Third Hokage, Minato, and the Anbu in charge of the equipment.

In addition to them, Nagasawa also saw an unexpected guess, Danzo.

Noticing Nagasawa’s gaze, Danzo coldly snorted, ”Let’s see how powerful Fourth’s Anbu that disbands my Root is.”

In his heart, the person he hated the most was Minato, and the second was Nagasawa.

Both of them actually disbanded Root, which he had spent so much effort to build.

Nagasawa smiled but didn’t say anything. Dissolving Root? Danzo should be grateful that he didn’t kill him.

The Third Hokage noticed that Nagasawa had come and greeted him with a kind smile, ”Nagasawa-kun.”

Because of Shisui’s evaluation and Nagasawa’s good reputation, Third had a good impression of Nagasawa.

”Third-sama.” Nagasawa nodded and greeted him. Then, he walked to Minato’s side.

Minato also noticed Nagasawa, but he did not say a word and only smiled at him.

Nagasawa looked at the big screen. There were many small footages on it, and from time to time. He could see Kakashi and the rest of the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu and the Third Hokage’s Anbu on the big screen.

The Third Hokage’s Anbu seemed used to this. They had two Anbu squads guarding the iron wire while the remaining Anbu squads were guarding the base.

A base with a diameter of two kilometers was actually not big for Shinobi. After all, they could travel several hundred meters in a few seconds.

In addition, there were only eight Shinobi guarding the iron wires, so each of them was quite far from each other. If they found anything, they would immediately notify the others.

On the other hand, the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu banded together as they moved around as if they were looking for a good place to launch a surprise attack.

Danzo sneered and said, ”Is this all the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu got? Setting aside that the leader is just a young boy, the tactic is so bad. They’re sticking together like glue, how can they sneak in?”

If it were him, he would definitely send two Shinobi to distract somewhere else, and then the rest would use this opportunity to sneak in and snatch the secret scroll.

”Ahem!”

The Third Hokage cleared his throat, indicating that Danzo should stop his cheap insult.

Aside from those who knew, everyone thought that this was a joint training between Root and the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu.

The Third Hokage did not say anything, but Danzo kept talking.

While Danzo was talking, the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu was seen making a move on the monitor.

The Fourth Hokage’s Anbu seemed to find a perfect position, and they all then walked up into the air as if walking up the stairs, entering the base from the sky.

None of the eight guarding Shinobi noticed anything strange.

The original Geppo relied on a powerful kicking strength to walk in the air, and it would produce a loud sound. However, Nagasawa added Chakra usage to this technique, which greatly reduced the noise, making it easier to use. After all, there was a gap in strength between Shinobi and the Pirates in one piece.

It was hard to catch this sound aside from the user.

At this time, Danzo was speechless.

Because the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu went up to the sky, the surveillance camera lost sight of them.

However, everyone knew that the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu had won this round.

A surprise attack from the air was something that ordinary Shinobi could not predict at all.

In addition, half of the Third Hokage’s Anbu’s manpower was defending around the iron net.

With the surprise attack and the overwhelming advantage of in number, there was no need to snatch it, they could just walk and take it.

”What is this Ninjutsu? Why the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu can use it?” Danzo could not help but ask.

Just now, the Fourth Hokage Anbu suddenly walked up into the air , which left him dumbfounded.

If it were a Secret Technique or some sort, he would not care, but judging from how everyone in the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu could use it, he came to believe that wasn’t the case.

”Is this result of the training team? Interesting.” The Third Hokage praised while fiddling with his mustache.

Although he did not know what exactly this move was, he knew more than Danzo.

Minato looked at Nagasawa. Nagasawa thought for a moment and said, ”Yes, this is Geppo, one of the Six Powers that the training team learned. It allowed them to essentially walk in the air.”

He didn’t mind explaining, but giving the method to learn it was another story.

Not long after, the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu was already seen on the monitor that showed the base.

With the advantage of the surprise attack and the number, almost in an instant, several Third Anbu were knocked down, and then Kakashi easily took the scroll and retreated with everyone.

They would only win after bringing the scroll outside the base.

Although the commotion quickly attracted the Anbu that was guarding the iron wire, it was too late. Kakashi and others had already disappeared without a trace.

In the first round, the Fourth Hokage’s Anbu won.
