Chapter 23:

Black water ghost know that he is in deep trouble, with the current situation unfavorable for him. He is seriously injured and the kid he is facing is also hard to deal with as Akira strength is not much weaker than him. This made black water ghost both frightened and surprised. Among the younger generations of Konoha, when did such a genius appear?

From the start of the battle, he had already fallen to the trick set by Akira, with no advantage in hand and now he is real danger.

"Black water Ghost, it seems like this will be where you will be buried." Akira said.

Akira said in a definite tone but he still remain cautious and preparing to surprise attack black water ghost when he least expected. Although black water ghost had been injured, he is still a well-known jounin and not to be underestimated with.

"Hmph, kid, you are really good, but it's not that easy to kill me!" Black Water Ghost yelled and used, "Body flicker jutsu"

Body flicker jutsu is a kind of advanced ninjutsu, which can realize instant movement. However, the use of body flicker jutsu can cause great burden on the body and generally requires at least jounin to be able to use it.

And even among jounin, the body flicker jutsu is not very common.

Akira was stunned, he didn't expect that the black water ghost could actually be able to use body flicker jutsu

In an instant, black water ghost body flash through the use of body flicker jutsu and he had escaped dozens of meters away. At the same time, Akira heard Black water ghost said in a vicious voice: "kid, what is your name? Humph, you are lucky this time, just wait, I will surely kill you the next time!"

Akira can only watch as black Water ghost escape and couldn't catch up with him at all. Akira replied: "My name is Namikaze Minato! If you have the ability, come and kill me!"

"Namikaze Minato, I remembered your name!" Black water ghost said this harsh words and quickly fled, his figure quickly disappeared.

"pff."

Choza couldn't help but laugh, seeing Black water ghost escaping and hearing Akira's reply. Akira unexpectedly reported Minato's name without any hesitation!

Minato also looked at Akira helplessly, don't know if he should laugh or cry: "Akira, is it good for you to do that?"

Akira said: "My bad, slip of the tongue."

Minato looked at Akira silently, with an expression of 'Who believes in you'.

"I didn't expect that black water ghost would be able to body flicker. It's a pity for him to escaped. However, he is seriously injured now, even if he can escape, his strength will be greatly weaken. It is not a concern." Akira changed the subject.

"yes." Both Kushina and Choza nodded slightly. This time, thanks to Akira's timely response, Black Water Ghost was injured and escaped. Akira's did not panicked during the battle and perform well. He is also witty and flexible thinking at the critical moment, otherwise this time their four-person team will be the one suffering instead.

Akira saw everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and reminded: "Don't relax yet, this place is near the battlefield. Black water ghost has been famous in Ame for many years and he confirm have other jounin acquaintances, it will be dangerous if he finds comrade to chase after us. So we should leave as soon as possible."

Kushina and others nodded their heads when they heard it as Akira is very thorough in thinking ahead of possible danger. A faint brilliance flashed through Kushina's starry eyes. Kushina felt very secured with Akira by her side and she couldn't help but stare at Akira dreamily.

"Let's leave here first." Akira said.

Akira and others evacuated quickly.

While Akira is hurrying on the road, he also communicate with sage of the six path: "Old man, I am still struggling when I am up against a jounin."

"Brat, you just want me to teach you jutsu again, right?" sage of the six path saw through Akira's thoughts at a glance.

Akira didn't blush at all: "Old man, is there a jutsu similar to the body flicker jutsu? If I mastered the use of body flicker jutsu, black water ghost will definitely not be able to escape next time." Akira wanted a type of body flicker jutsu after seeing it and immediately asked sage of the six path for guidance.

Although Akira's Chidori is powerful enough to kill jounins, but jounins are not fools either, they will not be standing like a target to let you kill. It is evident from black water ghost case, where he evaded the attack from hitting his vital at the last minute.

"Actually, there are. I do know a powerful body flicker jutsu." Sage of the six path deliberately stretched his tone to attract Akira's attention.

"What jutsu?" Akira said with attention

"It's Yang release. There is a variant body flicker jutsu in yang release which is called 'Yang style, body flicker jutsu' "

Akira is surprised: "Old man, didn't you say that I was not strong enough before, and I couldn't learn Yin and Yang release?" Akira is both surprised and confused so couldn't help but ask.

Sage of the six path actually planned to teach him yang release!

"It's should be almost enough. Your current strength is close to that of jounin and you can already learn a small part of ninjutsu of yin and yang style ninjutsu" sage of the six path said: "This Yang style body flicker jutsu is a high-level variant of body flicker jutsu, which is better than normal. The distance travelled and speed are several times more than of the ordinary body flicker jutsu"

Akira's eyes lit up after hearing what sage if the six path said. Akira also knows that there are actually many types of body flicker jutsu and the body flicker jutsu used by the Black Water Ghost is the most common low-level instantaneous movement jutsu.

And this yang escape instant body technique is very powerful according to sage of the six path words.

"Yin-Yang release is one of my best ability I specialize in. The power of yin and yang is also the most miraculous power in the world. It contains thousands of changes and is extremely mysterious. Your sharingan are actually the power of Yin release. Whereas konoha first hokage hashirama senju mokuton, is actually also the power of Yang release…" Sage of the six path eloquently explained.

Akira could not help but nod. In fact, it is also vaguely mentioned in the original story that the Uchiha clan sharingan and the Nara clan shadow manipulation are both the use of the power of Yin releasr. On the other hand ninjutsu such as mokuton is the use of Yang release.

Sage of the six path said: "Yin-Yang release is easy to learn, but it is difficult to master it. However, it is not a big problem for you now to learn one or two Yin-Yang style ninjutsu alone. Next, I will teach you how to use it. Listen..."

Akira listened carefully to the explanation from sage of the six path and kept simulating in his heart.

Fortunately, the hand seals of yang style body flicker jutsu is not complicated as Akira himself is a ninjutsu genius and learned it quickly

"Akira, although the Yang style body flicker jutsu is strong, it has limitations as well. With your current strength, your body can only use the yang style, body flicker jutsu three times a day at most, otherwise your body will be injured." explained sage of the six path.

"Understood." Akira nodded seriously, but couldn't wait in his heart.

Having mastered the yang style body flicker jutsu, Akira wanted to find a jounin to try his hand on the new jutsu and to also verify his current strength.

Once Akira finished communicating sage of the six path, the sky was already completely dark.

The team of four then rushed back to Konoha hut they didn' went too far. The reason is simple, they had just experienced a great battle and the four also consume lots of energy and strength in the battle.

"Let's settle down first and rest for a while." Akira said.

"Well, okay, I'm already too tired!" Choza nodded as he dragged his chubby body while panting. Kushina and Minato are also a little tired.

"We will take a break here and rest!" Akira nodded.

--------------------

In the original story, there is not much mention of Yin and Yang release, so the yang style body flicker jutsu can be said to be a jutsu created in alternate universe. if you are wondering how it look like, the Yang style body flicker jutsu is somewhat similar to the body flicker jutsu used by Naruto in Nine-Tailed Chakra mode.

P.S There is a reason why Akira gave Minato name to the enemy, he got a plan to trick Ame ninja.
