Chapter 64:

The flames of dragon flame caterwaul jutsu burned the surroundings. Even in the rainy weather like the Land of Rain, the flames did not seem to be extinguished. This is because of the Yang Chakra mixed in the jutsu, which make it burn more ferociously.

"Very good, the power of dragon flame caterwaul jutsu is far better than before, the power of this ninjutsu has already exceeded B rank ninjutsu" The sage said with satisfaction.

Akira name the jutsu after dragon flame caterwaul jutsu mixed with Yang chakra, 'Yang style, dragon flame caterwaul jutsu'. The jutsu power has far surpassed before and its destructive power is also even more powerful. Moreover, there is a trace of golden yang chakra in the flame, which help in making the jutsu appearance more beautiful. More importantly, in the ever raining country of rain, this dragon flame caterwaul jutsu is also not affected by the rain too much, which is entirely because of the yang chakra mixed in it.

"Yang release is really powerful and cool, it actually mixed the golden yang chakra with flame..." Akira said.

"Brat, when your Yang chakra become stronger, your flame will gradually become completely golden due to Yang nature transformation and its power will be even stronger." The sage said.

Akira's eyes lit up, he is surprise that Yang nature transformation would actually bring such an effect. Akira remember that in the original story, during Sasuke and Naruto battle in the Valley of the End, Sasuke chidori undergo nature transfomation and turned black in color due to the curse seal and Akira is in the same situation now.

Akira is satisfied with this.

Yang release has now become another trump card for Akira.

However, although Yang release is strong, it also has shortcomings. Yang release consumes a lot of chakra and Akira cannot used it often. Nevertheless, Akira was still satisfied.

After finishing his training, Akira returned back to the base.

There is a decrease in ninja at the base, because Tsunade and Jiraiya formed ninja teams to support Orochimaru. It is estimated that they will not be able to return for a while.

"Akira!" At this time, Akira heard a familiar voice and when he looked up, it was Minato.

"It's Minato, what's the matter?" Akira couldn't help asking.

Minato walked in with a gentle smile and said: "Akira, we are bored and have nothing to do in the base, so do you want to do a mission together?"

"What mission?" Akira shrugged and asked, feeling a little interested in his heart. After learning Yang release, Akira want to test it out in actual combat.

Minato said: "The mission is to kill a Ame elite jonin. This elite jonin is one of Hanzo's powerful subordinates. His nicknamed is 'Ghost Blade'. His strength is very good and is the leader of the nearby Rain Country Ninja force."

So this is the mission.

Akira's eyes lit up, a elite jonin, just nice for him to test his own strength after learning Yang release.

"Isn't it a bit too much for you to actually aimed for a the Ame elite jonin." Akira laughed.

Minato shook his head: "I will give you ghost blade to deal with while I will deal with the jonin around him." During this period of time, Minato has also benn working hard to train but he knows that he is still far from reach elite jonin level and dealing with normal jonin is already his limit.

"No problem." Akira readily agreed.

Akira and Minato were wanted by Ame, so they had no scruples to offend Ame. The two of them agreed with the mission and set out to kill the elite jonin.

After preparing the necessities such as ninja tools and food pills, Minato excitedly pulled Akira and said, "let's go find 'Ghost Blade'!"

"Don't worry, I will look at the information of this 'Ghost Blade' first. Akira smiled and then took a closer look, only to realize that Ghost Blade is also a rather extraordinary character in Ame. 'Ghost Blade' is his nickname, because his weapon is a huge scythe. This ghost blade is especially good at taijutsu and water ninjutsu. He is very strong and also a famous ninja among Ame.

"Minato, you have chosen good opponent. This Ghost Blade is strong." Akira squinted his eyes.

"Let's go quickly, I've already inquired about it. Ghost Blade is in a town in the Country of Rain. There should also be a few jonin guards beside him and we will escape once we get rid of him." Minato said.

"Okay."

Akira immediately agreed and set off with Minato.

Both Akira and Minato knew that they had make the fastest growth and progress in actual combat. During this period of war, their progress can only be described by lightning speed. This is also the reason why Minato took the initiative to take this mission and he also intend to use it to sharpen himself.

The two traveled swiftly and finally arrived at the town where 'Ghost Blade' was last spotted.

The rain in the sky never stop as it drizzle on the ground, stirring up a series of splashes.

In order to hide their identities, Akira and Minato were cautious along the way and deliberately disguised themselves as refugees from the Country of Rain. Currently, Akira and Minato were all dirty, with some mud on their faces and pretending to be refugees, not catching anyone attention.

"There are a lot of refugees in this small town. It just si happens to be a good cover for us." Akira looked around. There were refugees everywhere in the small town, mostly women and children, and everywhere you go there will be crying.

"Well, Ghost Blade should be in the casino in front. The mission information shows that Ghost Blade loves gambling. Every day, he will bring his subordinates to the casino in this small town to gamble." Minato whispered.

"Like gambling?" Akira's face turned a bit weird and he couldn't help but think that this ghost blade and Tsunade had the same hobbies, with both of them liking gambling.

There is a casino ahead. It may be due to the war, thus the casino looks a bit dilapidated, but it is still lively inside. There are many people gambling inside. The noisy and lively yelling of bets is in sharp contrast with the cry of refugees outside.

"Well, ghost blade should appear soon." Minato nodded.

Akira squinted his eyes and found a figure.

It was a man with several ugly scars on his face. He was holding a scythe in his hand and wearing a Ame forehead protector. He looked arrogant and Everywhere he went, people respectfully made way for him. This man is the target of their mission ghost blade.

Perhaps because he is out for gambling, Ghost Blade didn't bring too many subordinates with him, with only two Ame ninja following him and behaving respectfully.

"The mission target appeared, ready to do take action." Akira narrowed his eyes and said.

"Ready."

Ghost Blade walked into the casino staggeringly without realizing that he has been targeted.

"Good opportunity, attack!" Akira command was concise, as he quickly handsealed, chakra surged as he took the lead: "Chidori!"

Minato also did not hesitate and immediately launched an attack.

Exclamation occurred among the refugees, all of them watching stupidly, as Akira and Minato appear suddenly and ambush the Ame ninjas.
