Chapter 115 Obito: Is the "Acting Method" really useful?

To be fair, the Transformation Technique cannot be used for decapitation operations, mainly because it is just a simple illusion. At first glance, it may look fine, but anyone who knows the character can see the flaws by observing the chakra aura, habitual movements, tone of voice, and so on.

but----

For Yu Mikami, these problems almost never exist.

Because his [Transformation Technique: Lifelike], like White Zetsu's "Wood Release: Transformation" in the original story, can imitate other people's chakra aura and even personal habits, thus deceiving everyone.

However, such an assassination attempt is still somewhat risky.

More importantly, it would expose Mikami Yu's unique transformation technique, which wasn't worth it. In his opinion, it was better to save this special trump card for crucial moments.

Seeing that Mikami Yu said that, Kakashi stopped the topic and waved to signal the others to go back.

soon.

The group found a sheltered rocky hollow nearby and quickly set up their temporary campsite for the night. They then took turns keeping watch and resting, with Kakashi, as the team leader, taking the first shift.

Obito had barely lain down when he couldn't help but turn over again, lowering his voice to ask Yu Mikami, who had already closed his eyes beside him, "Hey, Yu, that acting method you mentioned earlier, does it really work?"

"If it really works—then if I become Madara Hōchiha, the former head of the Hōchiha clan, wouldn't I be able to awaken the Sharingan immediately?"

,

Yu Mikami's lips twitched slightly, a hint of suspicion in his voice that Obito might have read the script and knew he would meet that old man in the future.

However, at this moment, he dared not show anything unusual, and simply continued following Obito's words: "Uchiha Madara—"

"Wasn't that person killed by the First Hokage at the Valley of the End? So many years have passed, do you even know what he looks like? And you change your mind?"

"That's true!"

Obito slapped his thigh, realizing the blind spot, but quickly realized, "It's okay, the elders in the clan definitely know, maybe they even have portraits or something. I'll go ask them when I get back to the village this time."

"—Then I wish you all the best."

Yu Mikami said casually.

After exchanging a few perfunctory words, he was too lazy to argue with Obito any further. He yawned, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep accompanied by the chirping of insects in the distance.

When Obito saw that Kakashi was no longer responding, he tried to chat with him, but was scolded by the latter in a very impatient manner. He could only lie back down in his original spot, thinking about the "acting method" while gradually falling asleep.

Silent all night.

The next morning.

The mist in the forest had not yet completely dissipated, and the sound of clashing metal could already be heard in the woods. It was Mikami Yu and Kakashi, who had gotten up early, each holding a short sword and practicing their swordsmanship.

Both sides moved quickly. From the observer's perspective, all that could be seen were two dazzling silver lights, wielded by two white-haired men. Each strike carried a sharp, whistling sound as it cut through the air, leaving blurry trails in the dim morning light. The sounds of ping-pong balls colliding were incessant.

After this period of practical training, Mikami Yu's understanding of the "Heart Blade Domain" has improved significantly since he first left the village. His "Hatake Sword Technique" is quite proficient, and he is not at a disadvantage even when facing Kakashi, a true successor of the Hatake family.

In some ways, he is even more like the successor of "Hatake Sword Technique" than Kakashi.

It is expected that after a few more days, once the "Hatake Sword Technique" affinity level reaches 50 and the second stage "Intimacy" characteristic is unlocked, his strength will be able to improve further and surpass Kakashi's current level.

Kakashi was actually a little worried about this.

He had formally studied swordsmanship under Hatake Sakumo, though he hadn't learned everything due to Sakumo's untimely death. He knew the difficulty of mastering a swordsmanship from beginner to expert. But he couldn't understand how Mikami Yu had managed to learn "Hatake swordsmanship" and reach such a level.

Even though the other person doesn't have the Sharingan, how can you learn this thing so easily?

Hmm—maybe that's what "genius" is like—

Kakashi, who had been a genius since childhood, rarely experienced a sense of frustration similar to that of Obito from Yu Mikami.

the other side.

Rin Nohara was squatting by the campfire, busily arranging rice balls filled with vegetables and meat on clean banana leaves, and peeling a few fresh hard-boiled eggs. As she did this, the girl's fingertips, glistening with dewdrops, shone brightly in the morning light.

"Yu, Kakashi, stop fighting, it's time to eat! And Obito, you come over here too, stop thinking about that acting method!"

"Okay!"

Mikami Yu responded and, along with Kakashi, sheathed their swords.

Soon, the four members of the team sat down casually on the rocks and grass by the campfire, took rice balls and boiled eggs from Nohara Rin, and stuffed them into their mouths.

After finishing their simple breakfast, they cleaned up the campsite, extinguished the campfire, and then set off on their reconnaissance patrol again.

Because Minato Namikaze was absent today, the team's overall strength was somewhat reduced. Therefore, Yu Mikami and the others did not split into two groups, but instead acted together in a four-person team, keeping a close distance between each other and maintaining a vigilant formation.

During this process, Yu Mikami multitasked, keeping an eye on the surroundings while also monitoring the corner system.

[Superhuman Strength: (Sitting casually at the gambling table, one foot on a stool, shuffling a deck of cards with a loud clatter)]

Hey! Little White Hair! Are you awake? If you are, hurry up! I'm going to avenge myself today and win back everything I lost yesterday, plus interest!

"----Oh."

Yu Mikami curled the corners of his lips and chuckled softly.

He likes the confident look on the face of "Super Strength Technique," which is comparable to "Sunny Sasuke."

But after each gambling session—

[Super Strength: Aaaaaah! Damn it! Just a little bit more! You turned the tables on me—No, no! Let's try again!]

[Super Strength Skill Affection +2! Current Affection: 22/100 (Unfamiliar)]

Such easy favorability gains are rare in other ninjutsu, so Mikami Yu could only accept them with a smile.

In fact, besides "superhuman strength".

There's another technique whose affinity is quietly increasing day by day: "Neural Activation Technique".

So far, Mikami Yu has never practiced this technique, mainly because the manual is incomplete and he doesn't know how to practice it. However, he still engages in daily conversations, and although the latter remains inactive and doesn't respond to him, his favorability rating increases slightly from time to time.

Yu Mikami was very curious about what kind of features this "Pinhao Girl," which was not yet fully developed, could unlock.
