Hokage: What Should I Do If I’m Not A Genius?

One knife is like water, the other knife is like lightning.

Water has no constant state, sometimes like a violent storm, sometimes like rolling waves, one wave after another.

Lightning is like a stream of light, only fast! Ultimate fast!

The cold light intertwined, the two stood firm, as steady as a mountain, just wanting to use the knife in their hands to make the other retreat.

The two knives intertwined, and the dense cold light wrapped the two. A fallen leaf was blown by the wind and was crushed by the cold light the moment it approached the two.

Taiyi's eyes were still firm, but his breathing became heavier. Even though his physique had increased significantly, such a high-frequency fight still made Taiyi unable to continue.

Sakumo's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he did not hide his admiration for Taiyi's swordsmanship.

He was even more excited in his heart. How long has it been! How long has it been!

How long has it been since I encountered such a pure swordsmanship, without the participation of ninjutsu and illusion, only the knife in my hand!

Sakumo became more and more excited, but it was hard for Taiyi. Sakumo was a little bit overwhelmed, and his strength and speed became heavier.

This made Taiyi, who was already unable to hold on, even more passive. Realizing that he couldn't go on like this, Taiyi decided to go all out.

"Ha!"

After being blocked again, Taiyi used up all his remaining strength and swung out a sword with all his strength.

"Come on!"

Sakumo's eyes lit up, and he swung out the wooden sword in his hand, colliding with Taiyi's wooden sword.

"Crack!"

The two swords collided and broke with a sound.

Taiyi sat on his buttocks on the ground, breathing heavily, and his clothes were wet with sweat.

Sakumo threw away the broken wooden sword in his hand, with a satisfied look on his face.

"It really surprised me, Taiyi. You actually have your own way. Although you are still very immature, as long as you stick to it, you can achieve extraordinary achievements."

As he said, he stretched out his hand to pull Taiyi up.

"But there is still a little distance to Kakashi~"

Sakumo gestured with his thumb and index finger, and at the same time, he was a little proud.

Taiyi was a little speechless. He never knew that Sakumo was actually a child show-off demon.

"My training results are not limited to this. Do you want to try other things?"

"Eh? There's more? Is it swordsmanship?"

Sakumo's eyes flashed with surprise. He thought that Taiyi's progress was already amazing, but he didn't expect that it was not all.

Taiyi nodded, walked to the weapon rack, picked up two new wooden swords, and threw one of them to Sakumo.

"Second round, start!"

The wooden sword in Taiyi's hand was wrapped in light blue Chakra. Sakumo was surprised again. He could add Chakra to the wooden sword. This kind of Chakra control was far beyond Taiyi's age.

But it's not over yet. Taiyi placed the wooden sword horizontally in front of his chest, and the Chakra wrapped on the wooden sword gradually changed.

From the original light blue, it gradually became transparent, just like putting a crystal blade on the wooden sword.

Sakumo's eyes widened, and his tone was full of disbelief.

"This is, Nature Transformation! Wind-attribute Nature Transformation?!"

Sakumo was not surprised that Taichi could add Chakra's Nature Transformation to the wooden sword, but that Taichi did this step by himself without any guidance.

This is what shocked Sakumo.

Taichi was still a little proud of Sakumo's shock.

You can't stop talking about Kakashi and show off your good son. You are surprised!

"Be careful, Uncle Sakumo, this is my first time using this technique, and I may not be able to control it well."

Sakumo smiled slightly, raised the wooden sword in his hand and pointed it at Taichi. A more solid Chakra than Taichi appeared on the wooden sword.

"Come on horseback!"

"Uh-huh!"

Taichi left an afterimage on the spot and rushed straight towards Sakumo. This time with the blessing of Chakra, Taichi was faster.

In the blink of an eye, the two knives intersected.

"when"

Thanks to the blessing of Chakra, the intersection of the two wooden knives produced the sound of gold and iron.

The attack was blocked, Taiyi immediately changed his figure and launched an attack from another direction.

This time it was no longer a pure swordsmanship competition, Taichi's figure was getting faster and faster, and afterimages surrounded Sakumo, and sword lights attacked Sakumo every moment.

Sakumo, however, took his time and responded calmly. The wooden sword in his hand flew up and down, blocking all Taichi's attacks.

Suddenly, Taiyi suddenly swung his wooden sword, and a transparent sword energy flew towards Sakumo's neck from a tricky angle.

A trace of surprise flashed in Sakumo's eyes, but his reaction was extremely quick. He swung the wooden sword in his hand and chopped the sword energy into pieces with one blow.

Seeing that the sneak attack had no effect, Taichi immediately stepped back and distanced himself. For a strong man of Sakumo's level, all kinds of attacks can only be effective the first time. Now that the sword energy has no effect, he will use it a few more times. The same goes for Taichi who doesn't want to waste Chakra.

Seeing that Taiyi stopped attacking, Sakumo said: "That wind blade-like attack just now was also the result of your training this time?"

Tai nodded and began to secretly refine a large amount of Chakra.

"I named it Dao Qi."

"Isn't it a ninjutsu?" Sakumo was a little confused.

"No, a special technique."

Sakumo became interested, and after thinking about it carefully, Taiyi did not form any seals in the previous battle, so how did he achieve this sword energy?

Without giving Sakumo time to think, Taichi's Chakra was almost refined and he spoke:

"Uncle Sakumo, what follows is the third achievement of my practice. I call it..."

"Broken! Waterfall!"

Taichi's figure disappeared in an instant, and reappeared above Sakumo's head, raising the wooden sword in both hands. At the same time, the wooden sword shined brightly, and a large amount of Wind Style Chakra was injected in an instant, causing the chakra on the wooden sword's appearance to increase by more than three feet.

Taichi held his hands and slashed at Sakumo with the aura of cutting off everything.

Facing this knife, Sakumo only felt that a waterfall appeared in front of him, and the water sloping down was like a white dragon opening its bloody mouth towards him.

However, Sakumo's expression did not change. He waved the wooden sword in his hand and turned it into a cold light, charging straight up. If you turn into a white dragon, I will be the dragon-slaying blade!

"when!"

The white dragon collided with the sharp blade, and a substantial shock wave spread around the collision point, bringing up dust and smoke.

"Ouch!"

A whine sounded, and the sharp blade passed through the white dragon's body, splitting the white dragon into two.

At the same time, the wooden sword in Taichi's hand broke with a sound, and Sakumo's wooden sword grazed Taichi's forehead protector.

The outcome was decided, and Sakumo was victorious.

Taichi looked at the two-sectioned wooden sword in his hand and was a little disappointed. Although he knew that he could not be Sakumo's opponent, he did not expect that even Sakumo's wooden sword could not be cut off.

When Taiyi was stunned, a warm big hand gently stroked Taiyi's head.

Seemingly sensing Taichi's disappointment, Sakumo said softly:

"You've done a great job, you see."

As he spoke, he handed the wooden knife in his hand to Taiga.

Taiyi took a quick look and saw that there was a deep chip in the middle of the wooden knife, and it was completely broken with only half a finger left.

"It's okay, not too bad."
