Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

Day two.

Bai yawned and walked out of the room, just in time to meet Zabuza.

"Good morning, Zabuza, eh?!"

His eyes widened when he saw Zabuza's appearance.

"What are you..."

There is a small bump on Zabuza's forehead, which is particularly noticeable.

"Did you get bit by a mosquito?"

Bai was a little confused.

What kind of mosquito is so poisonous that a bump can swell like this...

"Do not ask."

Zabuza's face darkened and he didn't want to talk about it.

It was now the dawn, and the sun was shining through the thick fog and into the corridor through the bright windows.

The distance between the two is very close.

Zabuza was dressed in a simple and neat ninja outfit, while Haku was wearing plain and loose clothes. Although the style was simple and the material was ordinary, it set off his elegant appearance very well.

Even Zabuza's anger instantly disappeared when he saw Bai's appearance.

This kid...

It really feels strange.

Zabuza looked at Bai and felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

He felt that he was a ninja as hard as steel, and there was no way he could get along with a ninja like Bai who had a soft personality like cotton.

But, at least for now.

He sensed something else in Bai's eyes.

That is something different from other people's fears.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

After a brief silence, Zabuza suddenly asked.

"Eh?"

Bai was a little surprised that Zabuza would take the initiative to talk to him, but he still answered honestly: "I'm not afraid."

"Why aren't you afraid?"

"You are not the same as the rumors say."

"Even if I could kill you at any time, aren't you afraid?"

A cool breeze blew by.

A dagger appeared in Zabuza's hand at some point and he gently placed it on Bai's neck.

The sharp tip of the dagger was so chilling that Bai Qing couldn't help but shiver, and the hairs on his back stood up.

Killing intent!

This is genuine murderous intent!

At this time, Zabuza only needs to lightly slash the dagger and Bai's throat will be cut.

"It's so cold." However, he just exhaled a breath of white air and a smile appeared on his face.

"You won't kill me, Zabuza."

"..."

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

After a long silence, Zabuza put away the dagger.

"Just won't kill now."

"If you can't satisfy me in two days, I might really kill you."

"Don't put your hopes on those two Konoha ninjas. They will leave eventually."

"If there comes a day when Zabuza wants to kill me, I will not surrender."

Bai said calmly: "I will not die like this before I repay Mr. Ito's kindness."

Hearing him say this, Zabuza frowned and his tone began to become unfriendly.

"In your eyes, that ninja from Konoha is more important than your life?"

He didn't know why he was suddenly so unhappy.

It's like something important has been stamped with someone else's stamp.

"Yes."

Bai answered without any hesitation.

At the same time he looked at Zabuza with clear eyes.

"Teacher Ito is a different person from us. I trust and respect him."

"...For him to make you say such a thing, even I have to admit that he does have some ability."

Zabuza snorted coldly: "But victory or defeat is not determined by words."

He felt that he had said enough, so he stopped talking and walked to the end of the corridor.

When Zabuza's figure disappeared, Bai still stood there with his fists clenched tightly.

can i do it?

He asked himself this question in his heart.

When Zabuza put the dagger on his neck just now, he didn't notice it at all.

The gap in strength between the two sides is like a natural chasm!

Not to mention winning the battle, whether or not you can survive is another matter...

“I have to do it.”

Bai took a deep breath.

Another door opened, and Ito Toru walked out lazily from behind it, yawning.

"Hey, good morning, Bai, what are you daydreaming about?"

"Good morning, Mr. Ito. I was wondering... if I can really defeat Zabuza." Bai first saluted respectfully before expressing his concerns.

"Winning or losing is not that important, you just need to practice." Ito Toru smiled faintly, then patted his shoulder: "Let's go and have breakfast. Don't think about these things. It's useless except making you anxious."

"Yes……"

Bai still had some worries in his heart, but since Toru Ito said so, he could only choose to believe it.

Looking at his gloomy expression, Ito Toru shook his head slightly.

But he wasn't worried, because after today's training, Shiro wouldn't have any doubts about whether he could win.

It didn't take long before Yukina also walked out of the room.

The three of them started eating breakfast again.

This time's breakfast was the meat porridge that Toru Ito was known for, and Bai still ate it in small, polite bites.

At first, Yuina tried to pay attention to her image, but she soon threw away her useless reserve and started slurping the drink.

So, after a hearty breakfast, Toru Ito, with Bai's slightly bulging belly, once again came to the beach.

The fog is a little light today.

The waves gently brushed across the beach, and the scene was very peaceful.

"Shiro, what do you think is the most important thing for a ninja?"

"The most important thing... is strength?"

"That's right, then what is the most important thing that makes up a ninja's strength?"

"Chakra?"

"..."

Toru Ito was so confused that he just gave the correct answer directly.

"It's ninjutsu!"

"Ninjutsu!"

Bai suddenly realized: "So that's how it is?"

"So, what I will teach you today is Ninjutsu!"

After yesterday's training, Bai has been able to initially control his chakra.

The next step is to use these chakras reasonably.

The most basic way to use chakra is ninjutsu.

And Toru Ito didn't even need to specifically test Bai's chakra properties.

Because there is no other chakra that can produce ice jutsu except wind jutsu and water jutsu.

There is an abundance of water here and plenty of sea breeze, which is perfect for practicing these two types of ninjutsu.

Of course, it is still a fantasy to want to defeat Zabuza by practicing ninjutsu.

You must have a trick!

For example, Bai’s ice escape!

It's time to inspire.

……

While Bai was training hard with Toru Ito.

Zabuza had just walked out of the mission hall of the Hidden Mist Village.

There was an extra mission scroll on his waist.

This is the task he took on today.

People who were coming towards him also avoided him.

But after Zabuza left, a man wearing sunglasses and a suit stood up and walked out in the darkness.

Not long after, a spiritual beast carrying information ran out of the alley a few times and then disappeared.
