Hiruzen vs Mizuki

No matter, Hiruzen's problem will be considered a while later, he was in the middle of something more urgent, a fight with the Hokage, his attention cannot be diverted right now.

Mizuki took his stance as well, as he reached out towards the back of his flack jacket, and tapped the red Uzumaki symbol at the centre.

* Poof *

With a puff of smoke two fuma shuriken were unsealed on his back, they remained snugly attached there, ready for taking.

Reaching behind, Mizuki grabbed one fuma shuriken with his right hand and the other immediately with his left.

* Swiiiiish *

* Swiiiiish *

Both fuma shuriken started spinning slow at first but as Mizuki increased the rotation speed of chakra attached to it, it started speeding up until it was but a blur.

Putting one infront of him like a spinning shield, Mizuki gave the Hokage a smile, as he, in one smooth motion threw the fast spinning fuma shuriken at Hiruzen.

Hiruzen looked on with concentration as the massive four pointed shuriken flew on, taking a bending tilt on it's path to him.

' It's coming towards my torso, it's basic shurikenjutsu but masterfully done '

But Hiruzen wasn't about to take it head on like some sort of elder who thought himself so above everyone he gotta sneer at every opportunity and tank everything because everyone was but an insect.

No he simply, got out of the way!

But neither Mizuki nor Hiruzen were surprised, this was but an opening act, a test of speed and ability for both.

As the shuriken followed it's path and flew without hitting anyone, it flew towards the crowd of students.

Who were beginning to panic!

As a bunch of screaming and oh shits were beginning to be thrown around. Mizuki smiled as he vanished, appearing infront of the group of students like a spectre.

" Hyaaaa Mizuki sensei is so coool! "

Ignoring the mind numbing sound, Mizuki in a quick motion reached towards the high speed spinning Hunk of sharp metal, as if not even a concern, he easily reached his hand in the centre of the spinning shuriken.

As soon as his hand slid in, Mizuki tilted and spun on his heels.

Using the momentum of the shuriken, he threw it right back at Hiruzen who had appeared on the ground once more.

Power adding up the shuriken whizzed twice as fast towards it's intended target.

Hiruzen this time around simply jumped over the shuriken with his hands behind his back. Giving Mizuki a look of want to continue?

Mizuki gave him a look of of course as he vanished from his spot once more.

This time around the shuriken was going towards Anko, and Mizuki was beginning to suspect The third was positioning himself like that on purpose, so that Mizuki ' saves ' them and gets some hero points.

Which further confused Mizuki, this was the sort of thing he could see Iruka or Naruto doing, not the dastardly third. Mizuki's doubts only grew but he went towards the next location anyway.

He had to, because Anko didn't even attempt to dodge, even when she was fully capable. She was instead looking on with glee on her face as if she was about to receive some of the best dango around.

" YEAAAAH- ... Sorry sorry sorry..!"

Anko quickly apologized for letting out her prize winning scream when Mizuki flickered infront of her.

' I am being saved! Just like a princess! '

Anko giggled out loud as she watched Mizuki step on the tree trunk, sticking horizontally, he once again spun on his heels as he used the momentum to throw the fuma shuriken back again, once more adding to the force and speed behind it.

* Wizzzzz *

While Anko was content being happy about stupid things, Hiruzen was more amazed about another thing. Even as he was dodging around the danger filled ground.

' He's not just spinning around, he is timing it right everytime he grabs on to the shuriken, and he is doing it as soon as he flickers infront of it, wasting no time, most have to find their sense of balance in space back. He acts as if he is a natural. Minato... He is just like you in so many ways! '

Mizuki of course was no natural or had Minato's amazing spatial awareness, this was all due to the absurd sensing capability enhancement of sage mode and Mizuki's intelligent mind working in tandem. He was more Shisui than he was Minato in more than one ways. But Hokage wasn't seeing it like that.

* Wizzz *

Hiruzen crouched down as the shuriken whizzed past him, Hokage had long since caught on with what Mizuki was doing, the speed of his giant fuma shuriken would continue to increase as will it's destructive power, but this will make catching it much harder as time went on, Mizuki would be having trouble taming the shuriken the faster it gets and more deadlier it acts.

* Wiiiizzzz *

Quickly getting out of the way Hiruzen kept tracking it, the shuriken took a few strands of his hair this time around, Hiruzen himself was now having trouble dodging it, even one mistake and it takes out a chunk of his flesh along with it.

Now that Mizuki has set up his shuriken trap, there were few options infront of Hiruzen.

Easiest one was he takes the shuriken head on and breaks it with monkey King Emma, Mizuki's fuma shuriken might have been pumped with chakra but the material itself was neither chakra metal nor as strong as his adamantine staff.

But this carried the risk of the fragments blowing up on his face and Mizuki had one more Fuma shuriken ready for that very moment.

Hiruzen bent backwards as Mizuki throws his fuma shuriken from a tricky angle, he still had the leisure to think clearly. Why won't he, Mizuki was after all fighting in his base form, not his sage mode. Nor was Mizuki using his super strength. He was here to pass the Jonin exam, not impress audience in one fell swoop or something like that.

He won't be revealing anything major until he at least figures out what's the deal with the Third Hokage, he was totally unnatural in many ways.

* Zoooom *

Hiruzen dodged once more, albeit barely. He was finding it harder and harder to do so, but still continued with his approach, he too was testing Mizuki and how good of a spatial awareness he had. And Mizuki was scoring marks every second. Even if Mizuki didn't have what it takes. Hiruzen had made a decision of his own.

' He can do it. This speed, this sharpness of mind.. He can do what you once did Minato..! After so many years, there is finally another potential candidate who can learn the it! Sensei's flying raijin will see the sun once again! And he will perform it just like you did. Splendid. '

Having dodged his final shuriken, Hiruzen decided to put an end to this. The shuriken was but a blur even to him now, he cannot dodge the next attack.

Hiruzen raised his hand and he quickly formed his seals, jumping up on the spot, he decided to go with the best option currently, now that he couldn't see the shuriken anymore.

" Wind style great breakthrough! "

* Fooooooossssssh *

Strong gusts were blown by Hiruzen, he was a man who had done the unthinkable and mastered all 5 nature releases. Powering up a jutsu to epic proportions was but a piece of cake to him.

* Clang *

* Boooom *

The fuma shuriken was swept out of it's planned path as it went full speed and crashed into a rock formation nearby. Thoroughly destroying it and breaking apart itself soon after.

Mizuki smilingly flickered back infront of Hiruzen as he gave a nod and took his stance once more, this time around his left hand was holding onto a kunai as the remaining fuma shuriken spun infront of him as his right held onto it, it was acting as a shield infront of him. A sharp spinning bladed shield.

" Sorry about that, I'll get you a new pair afterwards. "

As a smiling Hiruzen said this in a sorry tone of voice, Mizuki's eyes slightly twitched.

' Got time to worry about your opponents weapon during a fight.. How impolite. '

Mizuki's teeth clenched, he wasn't willing to show off, but that didn't mean he was about to hear Hiruzen talk tash.
