The Sharingan with three tomoe is far more powerful than the Sharingan with two tomoe, and it can see through the enemy's movements and copy them. In the original work, the Copy Ninja Kakashi used the three tomoe and could see through the enemy's next move during the battle and copy ninjutsu and taijutsu on the spot.

Of course, Uchiha Kin is no match for Kakashi, but he is much stronger than before. Now, Kakashi's movements and strength are completely exposed to him.

"Mere martial arts? Watch me break them with a flick of my wrist," Uchiha Kin said confidently, but the next moment he was stunned.

He clearly saw through Kakashi's attack and knew how to counter it, but he couldn't do it. The reason was simple: his body couldn't keep up with his mind, and he made the same mistake Sasuke made with Rock Lee in the original story.

"Teacher, you're too kind."

Kakashi pressed his fist against Uchiha Kin's Adam's apple; with just a little force, Uchiha Kin would die.

Uchiha Kin's face turned ashen; he couldn't accept the fact that he had been defeated by a kid who hadn't even graduated yet, and even the joy of his Sharingan turning into three tomoe had vanished.

The onlookers were dumbfounded. A Jonin of the Uchiha clan, and one who had even activated the three-tomoe form, had been defeated by Kakashi. Even those who witnessed it firsthand couldn't believe it.

That's no ordinary Jonin, and the Sharingan isn't just any ordinary bloodstain!

In fact, Uchiha Kin was really strong, and his Sharingan was also very powerful. However, he encountered Kakashi, a freak who had grown up prematurely because of the hot spring. In addition, he was careless and thought that he could win by seeing through Kakashi's movements, which led to his defeat.

However, if Uchiha Kin were to be more careful and use the genjutsu of the three-tomoe Sharingan, the outcome would be uncertain.

Uchiha Kin left dejectedly, while Kakashi officially entered the eyes of Konoha's upper echelons. The Third Hokage looked at Kakashi with admiration, clearly showing his great appreciation for him.

The graduation test wasn't over yet, and Might Guy was next. Because of Uchiha Kin's departure, Might Guy stood in the center looking somewhat lost.

"The Uchiha clan members are too presumptuous. They just left suddenly. How can the graduation test continue like this?"

The third generation's expression was also somewhat unpleasant, but the most important thing now was to get Might Guy to take the graduation test.

"Alright, let Kakashi and Might Guy fight once. If Might Guy can last 3 minutes against Kakashi, he will pass."

"That's not a good idea. Kakashi has already fought and probably hasn't recovered yet. Besides, they were good friends and often sparred together."

Some suggested that Kakashi fight Might Guy, since Kakashi's strength is undeniable, having defeated a Jonin. Others objected, and their arguments had some merit.

“Dai, why don’t you go and be an examiner?” Yi Shuihan suggested to Matt Dai from below.

Might Day shook his head upon hearing this, and instead said, "If it were the boss, I don't think Kay would object."

"What?!" Yi Shuihan glanced at Matt Dai in surprise, wanting to see if he was joking, but what he saw was a serious face.

"Alright! You said it, so I'll give it a try." Yi Shuihan hadn't originally planned to agree, but then she thought, "Isn't this a good time to promote traditional Chinese martial arts?" So she changed her mind.

With a leap, Yi Shuihan landed in front of Might Guy. Everyone present, whether they knew him or not, looked at Yi Shuihan with puzzled expressions, wondering what he meant.

"Lord Hokage, what do you think of me being the examiner?"

Yi Shuihan stated his purpose directly.

The Third Hokage was stunned, wondering what had gotten into Yi Shuihan that he wanted to be an examiner. In terms of strength, Yi Shuihan was certainly qualified to be an examiner, and it would even be a waste of his talents. But the key issue was that there were many people present who did not know Yi Shuihan's strength, and Yi Shuihan was not a Konoha ninja, which was unreasonable according to the rules.

The Third Generation couldn't bring himself to refuse, after all, Yi Shuihan was involved in too many things. If he didn't give Yi Shuihan face, he was afraid that Yi Shuihan would make things difficult for him, such as not allowing the Dark Guard to enter the hot spring resort.

"Okay." In the end, the third generation nodded in agreement.

"So that's it. Are you ready? It's the same as before, three minutes. So, do you agree or not?"

Yi Shuihan looked at the somewhat excited Might Guy and said.

"I've wanted to have a fight with Brother Yi for a long time."

Might Guy roared, his body growing much larger than Kakashi's before, and then he squatted down and took off the bag tied to his trouser leg.

"boom"

Everyone stared in disbelief at the several large craters in the ground; they were from a heavy load, and it looked like they weighed at least a hundred pounds.

"Watch out, Leaf Whirlwind!"

He spun his body, suddenly exerted force from his waist, and delivered a powerful kick.

Without the weights, Might Guy looks much wilder than Kakashi did before.

"Is he Might Guy, the one who often fights alongside Kakashi? He's really something else, seeing is believing. He's incredibly strong."

"Who is the man fighting Might Guy? He parried Might Guy's attacks so easily."

Might Guy is not proficient in ninjutsu or genjutsu, so he naturally uses taijutsu, or Chinese martial arts, in battle. Yi Shuihan also uses Chinese martial arts for some purpose.

To achieve a better effect, Yi Shuihan did not use his full strength to defeat Might Guy directly. Instead, he acted as a sparring partner, allowing Might Guy to fully demonstrate his strength.

"Wow, amazing! Is this Chinese martial arts? It looks even more powerful than ninjutsu."

Some people exclaimed in amazement that when a person with chakra activated the martial art, a majestic tiger could be faintly seen behind Might Guy, enveloping him like a tailed beast cloak.

"This is... a Tailed Beast Cloak? No, it's far inferior to a Tailed Beast Cloak. But if we take it a step further, could it possibly produce the effects of a Tailed Beast Cloak?"

The three generations were all somewhat stunned. They had always valued martial arts, and now they valued it even more.

Chapter 329, The Deal for 20 Spots

The thing that appeared on Might Guy had absolutely nothing to do with the Tailed Beast Cloak; it just looked better and had a more imposing aura.

But if this continues to develop, once the phantom solidifies into a physical form, its power will probably be no weaker than that of the Tailed Beast Cloak.

In order to let everyone see the power of Chinese martial arts, Yi Shuihan went to great lengths. He thought that if the two of them fought, how would everyone know the power of Chinese martial arts if they didn't reveal a little bit of their strength? Therefore, he used a special method to guide the power transmitted from Might Guy to the side.

As a result, each attack left a small crater in the ground. Yi Shuihan deliberately guided Might Guy's attack route, and the two fought in the nearby woods, which resulted in the direct collapse of many large trees.

Those who understood the situation naturally noticed something amiss and were both amused and exasperated by Yi Shuihan's actions, while those who remained unmoved were increasingly amazed by the power of traditional Chinese martial arts.

"Stop, three minutes are up, you've passed."

Mighty got more and more excited as he got older, completely forgetting about time, while Yi Shuihan didn't forget that even if it was for advertising, there had to be a limit! So when the time was up, he called a halt.

"What? The time is up."

Matt Kai stopped, looking dejected, like a punctured balloon.

"You little rascal, you're getting the benefits and then acting innocent."

Yi Shuihan said irritably, what he said was true. After being trained by him, Might Guy had improved a lot, and many hidden dangers that were not usually noticed had been exposed.

"From today onwards, you are both proud Konoha genin. From now on, the peace of the village will depend on you." The Third Hokage smiled as he presented Kakashi and Might Guy with their ninja headbands.

The two little ones, despite their strength, were still excited as they held their ninja headbands. Hearing the Third Hokage's words, they puffed out their chests, looking very proud of becoming ninjas!

It has to be said that the Third Hokage was quite good at persuasion. After just a few words, Kakashi and Might Guy were completely bewildered, acting as if they were willing to sacrifice themselves for Konoha at any time.

"Your son has become a genin, what do you think about that?" Yi Shuihan said to Might Guy with a hint of sarcasm.

"Uh! Is there really no need to react so strongly?"

Mitekai's eyes were already filled with tears, which finally flowed down his cheeks, causing Yi Shuihan to break out in a cold sweat.

"Kai... Kai has finally grown up! This is youth! I have to work hard too, let's do 10,000 push-ups quickly!"

Without warning, Might Guy started doing push-ups on the spot, oblivious to everyone else. This reminded Yi Shuihan that this was Might Guy's father, and that Might Guy's constant chanting of youthful slogans was inherited from him.

Sakumo Hatake, standing to the side, glanced at Might Guy with surprise, then silently moved away.

Sensing the gazes around him, Yi Shuihan made the same choice as Hatake Sakumo, silently moving away from Might Guy.

"I'll go with you to see the Hokage."

Sakumo Hatake found Yi Shuihan and said...

"Actually, I can handle it by myself."

Yi Shuihan was also doing this for Hatake Sakumo's own good; if the two of them went, Hatake Sakumo would feel very awkward.

A hint of emotion flashed in Hatake Sakumo's eyes upon hearing this, but his attitude remained resolute.

"There's no other way, so let's do it together."

Originally, Yi Shuihan planned to talk about it at another time, since he needed to prepare his lines a bit! Now, he had no choice but to comply with Hatake Sakumo.

"Hmm? Is something the matter? Sakumo, and..."

"Could we speak in private?"

"All right!"

Together with the Third Generation, they arrived at a secluded place not far away. Before Yi Shuihan could speak, Hatake Sakumo explained their purpose first.

"My lord, I intend to retire. I hope you will grant my request."

The Third Hokage was slightly taken aback, then sighed. He was aware of the situation of his general, and to be honest, he hadn't expected Sakumo Hatake to make such a decision. But after Sakumo Hatake explained it, the Third Hokage felt he could understand.

"Aren't you going to reconsider?" I understand, but it's impossible to just let them go like that.

"The village still needs you! I know the village has let you down, and I apologize to you on their behalf."

The third generation spoke sincerely, and if it were the original Hatake Sakumo, he might have immediately wavered and hesitated. However, Yi Shuihan was also present.

"It's just a retirement from the military, not a permanent ninja. It's not like he'll never leave Konoha again. If Konoha really needs help, wouldn't he help?" Yi Shuihan knew it was time for him to show his worth.

"Ok?"

The Third Generation looked at Yi Shuihan with some surprise, only then realizing that something was wrong! He had originally thought that the two of them had come to find him by chance, but now that he heard what Yi Shuihan said, he knew that they were both here for the same reason.

When the matter involved Yi Shuihan, the Third Generation felt something was amiss. He knew that Yi Shuihan was not someone who would compromise easily!

"It's settled then. From today onwards, Sakumo will no longer be a ninja but an employee of my hot spring resort. So, do you agree or not?" Yi Shuihan made his intentions clear.

“This…” The Third Generation hesitated.

That old fox, it seems we still need to give him some benefits!

Yi Shuihan held up one finger and said, "Ten extra spots every day."

"100?" The Third Hokage's eyes lit up. Hatake Sakumo hadn't been in good shape lately, so it would be perfect if he could exchange him for a spot at Yi Shuihan's hot springs.

"Twenty, or forget it."

"Deal!" Ten third-generation members were already enough; saying 100 was just a test. Unexpectedly, ten more were added, so he happily agreed, fearing that Yi Shuihan might change his mind.

Watching Yi Shuihan and the Third Hokage's conversation from the sidelines, Hatake Sakumo felt as if he were something in a vegetable market, and a strange feeling welled up inside him.

Seeing the happy look on the third generation's face, Yi Shuihan was also delighted. Exchanging 20 spots for one Hatake Sakumo was truly a worthwhile deal.

Chapter 330, Desiring to Judge Yi Shuihan

Fengzhen, an inconspicuous town in the Land of Fire.

Fengzhen, which was originally a stagnant town, has become lively today because of the opening of a martial arts school.

The National Martial Arts Academy moved into Fengzhen a month ago, occupying the best location in Fengzhen. The academy was built in just one month. The academy is not big, about the size of a football field. The reason it took a month to complete is that it was mostly built by ordinary people.

This isn't Konoha; there aren't that many ninjas here. Besides, ninjas generally disdain building things. After all, in this world, a ninja is completely above the ordinary class, equivalent to a noble. In some remote areas, even a genin can rule as a king.

"I heard that this place teaches martial arts? Martial arts can make you as powerful as a ninja."

"What? What exactly is this Chinese martial art? It can actually turn people into ninja-like powerhouses."

"do not know?"

"You do not know?"

"I heard about it from the news. I was just about to go to the National Martial Arts Academy to give it a try. I heard that you can get the training methods for National Martial Arts for free! And if you have good aptitude, you can stay and become a student of the academy. The academy will take care of your food and accommodation from then on."

"That's great! What are we waiting for? Let's go!"

"..."

The promise of becoming stronger, coupled with the provision of food and lodging for those with talent, was an immense temptation for ordinary people. As a result, everyone who heard the news flocked to the National Martial Arts Academy to see if it was true. Even some ordinary ninjas were drawn to it.

And this was indeed true. When copies of the basic training methods for traditional Chinese martial arts were distributed to everyone, and someone even demonstrated the strength of a Ming Jin martial artist, everyone went crazy.

Martial arts schools have sprung up everywhere in a short period of time, and basically every slightly larger area now has one.

For the first time, "national martial arts" became an important national term, not only in the Land of Fire but also in several major countries. Nowadays, when people meet, they often ask each other, "Have you studied national martial arts? Have you reached the Ming Jin level?"

A revolution was unfolding at a speed that people could not even imagine. By the time the major ninja villages received the news, the training methods of the national martial arts had already spread to every household, making it impossible to stop their leakage.

All the major ninja villages dispatched their ANBU to investigate the origin of all this, but in the end they could only trace the source back to Konoha.

After screening, the final target was finally identified as Yi Shuihan.

So Yi Shuihan was summoned by the third generation for tea.

"What do you want from me? I'm very busy. Besides, I'm not a ninja from Konoha." Yi Shuihan looked impatient. Actually, he hadn't planned to come, but he couldn't resist Tsunade's persuasion.

The Third Generation was initially furious and wanted to question Yi Shuihan about who had come, but after Yi Shuihan finished speaking, the Third Generation was shocked to realize that he really had no right to question Yi Shuihan.

Yes, the other side has spread the national martial arts, causing great turmoil in the country. It's not obvious yet, but in the long run, it will have a certain impact on ninjas.

When people have power, they inevitably think more, and it would be bad if things happened that were detrimental to social stability.
