Chapter 72 - Chapter 72: Flash of Light!

At this moment, what was reflected in Minato's azure eyes was an overwhelming black afterimage. The dense shurikens formed a net that blocked his retreat.

Although he couldn't see through it, he could tell that Uchiha Yoruki was not shooting randomly. Hundreds of shurikens were in staggered positions, making it impossible to determine the specific direction from which they would attack.

The range covered by these shurikens was probably impossible to dodge even with the Body Flicker Jutsu.

He never knew that shurikenjutsu could reach this level. Compared to this Jutsu, the shurikenjutsus he had seen before were like fireflies compared to the bright moon.

It was worthy of being the shurikenjutsu of the Uchiha clan, one of the two major clans that established Konoha in the war-torn era. Uchiha Yoruki was able to practice this kind of shurikenjutsu at his current age. This talent was truly amazing.

"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!" On the second-floor stand, Kushina made a cross seal with both hands, but then a figure so fast that no one could see clearly appeared in front of her, and her hands were restrained by one hand. The person who made the move was Sakumo Hatake.

"What are you doing?" Kushina used all her strength, but Sakumo's hand was like an iron clamp, preventing her from making a seal or performing a ninjutsu.

"This is a fight between the two of them. You'd better not interfere," Sakumo Hatake said.

But out of concern for Minato, Kushina didn't care about Sakumo's identity at all, and there was anger on her young face. "This is just a trial. Those are real shurikens! With that number, he could die!"

The only difference between Kushina and the students of the ninja school is that she has seen real death. Although it is a very vague memory, she is sure that it is real. When a person dies, everything is gone.

"It seems that you still don't know enough about Minato Namikaze," Sakumo smiled faintly upon hearing this, and said, "Let's not talk about the fact that I'm here and will never let him get hurt. Look at the boy's expression; does he look like he can't handle it?"

Around Kushina, everyone was stunned when Uchiha Yoruki performed such a shurikenjutsu. Mikoto on the side clenched her hands tightly, and her palms were soaked with sweat.

Nawaki on the side was also ready to jump in, but the battle with Sarutobi Ao had exhausted his physical strength just now, so he couldn't use wind release jutsu, and his speed was less than half of his usual speed, so he was simply too late.

After Sakumo's reminder, everyone cast their eyes over. The first shuriken was less than 30 centimeters away from Minato, but at this time, there was no panic on his face. Instead, there was a kind of calmness that none of them could understand.

Minato himself knew that the more critical the moment, the more he had to remain calm. This was the most basic accomplishment of a ninja, but due to human nature, there were too few people who could do it. He didn't know why he had such calmness.

Even Sakumo was puzzled by this. Even if he was an outstanding genius, Minato Namikaze was just a child after all.

Mentality has nothing to do with talent; it is accumulated through experience. In Minato's subconscious, he seemed to have been accustomed to this feeling of being in danger.

At the last moment when the shuriken arrived, Minato took out a piece of black string from his shirt pocket. No one could understand his behavior, even Sakumo couldn't figure out what he was going to do.

"Are you scared?" Uchiha Yoruki's eyes flashed slightly, and then he sneered. At this moment, he found that Minato was also smiling at him.

Swish! The next moment, Minato's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and with his yellow hair, it was like a flash of light.

"Want to escape with the Body Flicker Jutsu?" Uchiha Yoruki sneered again. He had also practiced the Body Flicker Jutsu, so he naturally understood the principle of this Jutsu.

Whether it was the Taijutsu instant body or the ninjutsu instant body, it was ultimately an explosion of power. The former used the hidden power of his extremely strong physical fitness, while the latter used the burst of chakra.

Since it was a burst, it was destined not to last too long, so the distance of each Body Flicker Jutsu was extremely limited.

The straight-line distance between him and Minato was within the Body Flicker Jutsu, but using Body Flicker Jutsu in this direction was undoubtedly courting death.

If he used a roundabout distance, both the difficulty and distance of Body Flicker Jutsu would be a big problem. He had expected this situation early on, and Minato would not be able to escape.

Just as he was about to lock on to Minato after the Body Flicker Jutsu with the situation he had expected in advance, something unexpected happened.

The yellow flash did not disappear in a short time but maintained a speed that no one's eyes could follow at all. Uchiha Yoruki's pupils shrank. At this speed, his shurikens had no time to keep up!

However, he immediately adjusted the direction and continued to throw shurikens, but even his super-high-speed shuriken throwing could not keep up with the yellow flash.

Swish! There was a sound of breaking wind in his ears, and Uchiha Yoruki only felt a flash of yellow light in front of his eyes, and his arms were suddenly forced to stop moving.

Uchiha Yoruki suddenly lowered his head, and his arms were tied by a piece of black string at the elbow. If it were normal, with his strength, he could naturally use his strength to break the string.

However, the consequence of being forced to stop the high-speed shuriken would cause his arms to feel intermittent weakness, and he couldn't do that.

When everyone, including Uchiha Yoruki, couldn't react, Minato went around him again, and the black string was tightly wrapped around the latter's arms twice, and the string end was tightly wrapped around his left hand by Minato.

Uchiha Yoruki had previously consumed a lot of physical strength and was unable to make a corresponding response. Minato's right hand was a palm and slapped his chest, and the chakra mark broke.

The whole audience was silent, and no one understood what had happened. Even the shurikens that didn't find their target in the sky continued to maintain their trajectory in the air and didn't fall to the ground.

"This kid, what a fast speed!" Even Sakumo was surprised by Minato's speed. He could naturally keep up with all of Minato's actions, but even so, he couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

Ding ding ding! When the crisp sound of countless shurikens falling to the ground slowly reached their ears, the people in the stands gradually came back to their senses and reacted, but the shock on their faces did not diminish at all. Takenouchi Rin's eyes widened, and he blurted out subconsciously, "It's... a yellow flash!"
