Chapter 435 Promotion

Several disciples looked at each other, trying to figure out each other's thoughts from each other's expressions.

“I’ll go back too.” Kakashi said after a moment of silence.

He needs to recover for too long. If the battlefield suddenly changes drastically and he fails to fully recover at that time, he may become a liability.

Kakashi believes that it is better to go back to Konoha to recuperate while staying on a tense battlefield. A good environment will allow him to recover faster. By then, he will be able to continue to perform tasks on the battlefield after fully recovering.

"Ah? Kakashi, you have to go back too." Obito grabbed his hair with both hands.

He wanted to stay on the battlefield, but if Kakashi returned to Konoha, it would be meaningless for him to stay on the battlefield.

Because he wanted to compete with Kakashi on the battlefield and outperform Kakashi.

If Kakashi leaves, who will he compete with?

At that time, even if he performs well, Kakashi can still say that he can do better.

"I need to recuperate for three weeks. It would be more comfortable to go back to Konoha. Recuperating on the battlefield will even restrict my movement." Kakashi replied calmly.

Although Eight Gate Dunjia is very strong, it is also very dangerous, and Metkai will also use Rock Breath superimposed on it.

So Shisui wanted to hone himself through this war and make up for the lack of actual combat.

“No problem.” Mu Yue nodded and agreed.

Except for Metkai who was forced to return to Konoha, others would not stop Mu Yue from staying on the battlefield.

As for Metkai, Mu Yue was mainly worried that something would happen that forced him to fight, causing Metkai to force his injured body to fight and leave incurable sequelae.

After the ten-day recuperation period, Shisui will take the initiative and ask Muyue to go out to perform tasks.

In addition to tempering himself, Shisui also had another idea, which was to complete more war missions to increase his qualifications.

“I’ll ask her later.” Mu Yue replied.

Since Kakashi is no longer prepared to stay on the battlefield, Obito has lost most of his interest in the battlefield. After all, he cannot end the war with his current strength, and there is not much difference between him and him.

Because of her gender, Nohara Lin did not rest in the same camp as Obito and the others. Since there were more disciples here, Mu Yue came to ask Obito and the others first.

The breathing method does not cause harm to the body under normal circumstances, but in extreme cases it is very dangerous to overdraw your strength.

Kakashi glanced at Obito and felt speechless. This was too unassertive.

“Teacher Muyue, is Xiaolin going back?” Obito asked Muyue after thinking about it.

For some, it would definitely be better to go back to Konoha. War is no joke.

Zhi Shui was very unwilling. He didn't want to be defeated in the civil war among his disciples. He wanted to regain the title of Mu Yue's strongest disciple.

Now he is only a chuunin, and a genius chuunin is also a chuunin. Chunin cannot make waves among Uchiha. If he wants his words to have more weight after the clan meeting, then he has to upgrade his ninja level. , and the battlefield is a good place to make achievements.

If Nohara Lin also leaves, it will be really meaningless for him to stay on this battlefield.

“If Xiaolin goes back too, I will go back.” Obito nodded.

He used to be the leader among his disciples for a long time, but as Obito and the others experienced various practical combats and their strength improved by leaps and bounds after the internship, Shisui was surpassed silently.

 Obito is going to decide whether to stay or go based on Nohara Lin’s choice. If Nohara Lin decides to stay, he will also stay on the battlefield to protect Nohara Lin. If Nohara Lin returns to Konoha, then Obito will also choose to return to Konoha.

"I want to stay on the battlefield." Shisui thought about it for a while and expressed his thoughts.

Then Mu Yue went to Nohara Lin and asked the same question.

“Are Kakashi and the others going back?” Nohara Lin did not answer Mu Yue’s question immediately and asked Kakashi and the others about their situation.

After Mu Yue told the truth, Nohara Lin thought for a moment and gave the answer, "I want to go back to Konoha."

Nohara Lin's idea is very simple. Kakashi must be seriously injured if it takes so long to recover. If she goes back with him, she may be able to use her treatment to help Kakashi recover better. At the same time, she can also use this time to sort herself out. Recent Gains Learning something new from Tsunade.

After asking all the disciples, Mu Yue did not arrange for them to go back immediately. She planned to let them rest for a few days before arranging shadow clones to send them back.

After all, they were too seriously injured just after coming off the battlefield. If they set out now, they can only arrange for people to carry them all the way back, at least to allow them to regain a certain degree of mobility.

Mu Yue was not busy with his disciples for too long, and soon he went to complete the task assigned to him by Orochimaru.

Yamanaka Kaiichi checked the memories of the dead Minazuki Han and the five Ninja Sword Seven people. Kirigakure's arrangement was basically exposed. Even if Kirigakure reacted quickly enough, it would not be possible to complete all the adjustments in an instant.

 Mu Yue and the others’ mission was to compete with Kirigakure in speed and overturn all the areas where Kirigakure had no time to adjust.

However, in this battle, Mu Yue did not use the methods he was really good at. Instead, he transformed into Shui Wuyuehan and used Ice Escape.

“Ice Escape·Violent Pheasant Mouth!”

With a wave of his hand, Mu Yue created a huge ice bird and flew out. The ice bird rushed towards Mu Yue not far away, freezing all Kirigakure on the path. The Ice Escape he is performing now is not his own Ice Escape with a proficiency level of 1,000 points, but the Ice Escape of Shuimu Yuehan with a proficiency level of 3,600 points.

The gap between the two is much greater than the level of proficiency from entry level to proficiency.

“Ice Escape·Freezing Light!”

For those who dodge the ice bird's attack, Mu Yue added another shot of freezing light to freeze them.

Although he transformed into Minazuki Han, Mu Yue tried not to use the opponent's ice escape ninjutsu. He did not have a Sharingan, so it would be a bit beyond common sense to directly copy ninjutsu based on pure talent.

"Such a strong ice escape, how could there be such a powerful ice escape ninja among the Konoha ninjas!" The Kirigakure ninjas who were attacked were dumbfounded.

There is no saying that the blood succession limit belongs to each ninja village. For example, there are magnetic ninjas Sunagakure and Kumogakure, but they have never heard that there are ice ninjas besides Kirigakure, and they are so powerful.

The Kirigakure ninja swallowed his saliva as he looked at his companions who were quickly frozen, "Why does it feel like this person's ice escape is stronger than Master Han?"

In a sense, what he said is correct, because Mu Yue has more chakra than Mizuna Yuehan, and Mu Yue will be stronger even with the same proficiency in changing properties.

The ice attack skill is indeed pretty good. Mu Yue quickly froze all the Kirigakure he was responsible for.

When Mu Yue went to the next location but failed to catch Kirigakure, Kirigakure shrank rapidly.

"Goju Yagura, he is a good opponent." Orochimaru raised the corner of his mouth slightly after coordinating everyone's results.

Although Gouju Yagura reacted quickly enough, this was still a successful operation, effectively attacking Kirigakure's power on the east coast of the Land of Fire.

If there is no external influence next, Gouju Yagura will definitely lose due to the ebb and flow of the situation, and it is only a matter of time before Orochimaru wins.

Other Jonin in the conference room also showed excited expressions. Winning the battle would also be of great benefit to them.

"Mu Yuejun will serve as the deputy commander of the army from now on." At the end of the meeting, Orochimaru announced Mu Yue's new position in the army.

This is the decision made after the reply from Konoha's top management.

However, this does not mean that Nara Shikaku’s deputy commander will be withdrawn, but that they will all serve as deputy commanders.

This is a relatively common thing in Konoha, one full-time job with multiple deputy positions.

“Jounin Muyue, congratulations.” A jounin who knew Muyue congratulated Muyue.

Although the commander of the ninja force is a temporary war position, it has an unusual status, which shows that Mu Yue is valued by Konoha's senior officials.

Mu Yueyi responded humbly with a smile, without any fluctuation in her heart.

In his opinion, this is not an important thing, it only represents a signal that he will not be able to return to Konoha in the near future.

At least Kirigakure had to retreat before he could return to Konoha with the ninja troops.

Mu Yue actually had no position before taking on the role of deputy commander. There were multiple reasons why he was able to attend the small meeting held by Orochimaru, unlike others who held important positions in the ninja army.

Mu Yue believes that there are two reasons for the change in position. One is that he has made great contributions, and the other is the change in Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts.

Sarutobi Hiruzen may have initially prepared him to recall him to Konoha when the situation on the battlefield improved, but now Sarutobi Hiruzen's expectation of him is to solve the Kirigakure problem.

Orochimaru called Mu Yue as before and walked with Mu Yue near the camp.

However, Orochimaru did not talk to Muyue about personal matters this time, but instead informed Muyue of the reward for this encounter from the top management of Konoha.

“If your three disciples pass the inspection, then they can become the youngest Jonin in Konoha’s history.” Orochimaru looked at Mu Yue and said with a smile.

Konoha's requirements for jounin are too strict. No matter how talented they are, no one is promoted to jounin at the age of ten.

Some people have sufficient strength but insufficient merit, and a very small number of people meet both conditions but are worse in other aspects.

Mu Yue's eyes flashed, curious about whether there would be any rewards for disciples becoming jounin. There are genin and chūnin, so it stands to reason that there should be rewards for jounin as well.

“Based on my understanding of the inspection, it shouldn’t be difficult for your three disciples, Muyue-kun, to pass the inspection.” Orochimaru said, thinking that Muyue was worried that his disciples would not be able to pass the inspection.

 Obito and Kakashi both have the ability to block a group of seven ninja swordsmen. Metkai can even defeat one against three with an explosion. After inspection, it is basically a certainty.

“Orochimaru-kun, you think highly of them. Only one of them should be able to pass the test.” Mu Yue smiled and shook her head.

In terms of strength, Obito and the others don't have to worry, but being promoted to Jonin is not just based on strength.

When looking at other content, Obito and Metkai are not necessarily as good as experienced Chunin.

The only person who can safely pass the Jonin inspection is Kakashi. Kakashi is a true hexagonal warrior. He can do everything, but he is not long enough to fight.

PS: There will be another chapter later, but it will be relatively late, probably between 2:30 and 3:00. I recommend reading it tomorrow. It’s not good to stay up late.
