Around her neck was a somewhat faded red scarf. The clothes on her body were also worn out or even faded. The entire left leg was covered with a black cloth belt, but the right leg was bare. There was a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth. At this time, a faint burning sensation appeared on the back of Saigoji Youmu's left hand.
"Um?" Saigoji Youmu looked down and saw that the second sword of the seven swords on the back of his hand had changed from hollow to solid. At the same time, information about her—the red taidao—appeared in Saigoji Youmu's mind.
The taidao's name was Hongying. The owner of this knife was named Lucia. To be precise, it was the Lucia-Crimson Abyss model. Lucia-Crimson Abyss was a character in a game called Zhanshuang-Pamish. The faction she belonged to was an Ascender. Lucia-Crimson Abyss was known as a superpower on the surface, and her strength was extremely terrifying. She was a ceiling-level powerhouse among the characters featured in the game plot at that time. They were also one of the only two who had not lost, or even been deflated.
She excelled in melee and long-range attack and defense speed, having almost no weaknesses. What was even more exaggerated was that Lucia-Crimson Abyss was portrayed in the game as only a small part of her strength. Lucia-Crimson Abyss once claimed that even dust could not touch her body.
Saigoji Youmu closed his eyes, carefully feeling the extra force in his body. After a while, he murmured, "Although it's not as exaggerated as in the game, it's enough." Saigoji Youmu opened his eyes again and muttered to himself.
…
The next day, in a certain classroom in Konoha School, all the graduating students of this year were gathered. The eyes of most of the students were filled with curiosity and expectation. Classes were about to start, and they would officially leave the Ninja School and become real ninjas. In addition to their ninja careers, what intrigued them most was who the ninja leading the team would be.
A few minutes later, a teacher walked into the classroom and came to the podium. "First of all, congratulations. From today onwards, you will be ninjas on your own."
"Okay, Master Tsunade." Konan responded and left with Tsunade.
"That's Namikaze Minato, isn't it?" Jiraiya scratched his face. "Starting today, you will follow me."
"Yes, Master Jiraiya." Namikaze Minato ran quickly to Jiraiya and bowed respectfully.
Swish! Tsunade, Konan, Jiraiya, and Namikaze Minato left, and Uzumaki Kushina and the little girl from the Uchiha clan turned their eyes to Saigoji Youmu at the same time.
"Senior Saigoji, you…" Uzumaki Kushina hesitated to speak.
"You guessed it right, Kushina." Saigoji Youmu pointed to Uzumaki Kushina and the little girl from the Uchiha clan. "You and her, I'm both your teacher."
"Yeah, great!" Uzumaki Kushina cheered, happiness written all over her cute little face.
"Is he great?" The little girl from the Uchiha clan looked at Saigoji Youmu suspiciously. In Konoha, young and powerful people like Saigoji Youmu were all famous, but she was sure she had no impression of him at all.
