Chapter 60: Direct Student

Start from the beginning
                                    

Indeed, it had been over two years since he arrived in this world. Imperceptibly, Yu had already considered Yakushi Nonou and all the companions in the Konoha Orphanage as his family.

"But, Yu... you're only six years old."

Staring blankly at Yu, who, at the age of six, had already become a Special Jonin, Yakushi Nonou realized she couldn't fathom what kind of ninja this young boy would become in the future.

"Spe... Special Jonin..."
"What kind of concept is that?!"

Seeing Yu, who was the same age as them, becoming a Special Jonin and being recognized by Lord Third Hokage as a student, left them all in awe.

The gazes from the group of companions at the Konoha Orphanage towards Yu were indescribable.

Especially Urushi, who stared fixedly at Yu, said, "Yu, don't lie to me. You must be the reincarnation of the Six Paths Sage, right?!"

The reincarnation of the Six Paths Sage... Upon hearing this, Yu couldn't help but chuckle and rubbed his nose. It seemed that this wasn't the first time someone had described him this way.

"Yu, after you move out, will you still come back to see us?"

At this moment, Mai and Momoka, the two girls beside him, looked at Yu with somewhat timid gazes. Inevitably, Yu's outstanding performance had created a sense of distance between them.

"Momoka, come here."

Looking at Momoka, who had written all her concerns on her face, Yu suddenly became serious and waved at her.

"What are you... Ouch!"

Having just walked over with some curiosity, Momoka suddenly cried out in pain, covering her forehead.

"I just said that we are one family..."
"How could I not come back to see you guys?"

Yu, imitating Uchiha Itachi's habit of flicking Sasuke's forehead from the original work, lightly flicked Momoka's forehead.

"Ouch... it hurts every time!"

Momoka, still holding her forehead, couldn't help but smile.

Yu's affectionate gesture undoubtedly brought them closer once again.

"Special Jonin... a student of Lord Hokage..."

Standing in the corner, silently watching Yu being surrounded by everyone, Kabuto's gaze couldn't hide his envy.

Monstrous talent, perfect appearance, the admiration of the people, and now, the prestigious identity of Lord Third's student.

Clearly the same age, the same background, both orphans picked up by Yakushi Nonou from the battlefield.

But now, Yu had unwittingly acquired so much that they could only dream of.

Perhaps from the beginning, they were people from different worlds.
...
Time flies, and years pass by.

After Yu became a Special Jonin of Konoha and a student of Lord Third, more than a year has passed. The Third Great Ninja War finally had new results, with the Hidden Sand Village of the Wind Country being defeated and showing a tendency to propose peace with Konoha.

On this day, at Sarutobi Hiruzen's residence.

The courtyard was connected to the surrounding woods, with a wide open space in the middle.

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet Jutsu!"

Accompanied by a deep, commanding shout, three enormous, scorching flames transformed into raging flame dragons, relentlessly attacking Yu from three directions: front, left, and right.

This was a B-rank Fire Release Ninjutsu, immensely powerful, like rampaging dragons.

It was very difficult to control the dragons and make them follow the caster's intentions; only a skilled ninja could master it.

But when executed by the "Ninjutsu Professor" Sarutobi Hiruzen, these three flame dragons, seemingly possessing a life of their own, could turn the enemy into ashes in an instant.

"A B-rank Fire Release with such power..."
"Sarutobi-sensei, truly worthy of being called the 'God of Shinobi.'"

Facing the formidable Fire Release Ninjutsu unleashed by Lord Third, Yu exclaimed in admiration, but his hands had already swiftly formed seals.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu!"

A vast amount of water materialized out of thin air, rapidly shaping into a massive water dragon that roared as it collided with Lord Third's unleashed Fire Dragon Flame Bullet.
