Hiroshi stepped forward, positioning himself in front of the group.

  —Alright, it's time to get this started, —he murmured, exhaling slowly as he focused his chakra.

  With fluid movements, he drew a kunai and formed a hand seal with precision. In an instant, the weapon became wrapped in a thin yer of electricity, crackling with intensity. He swung the kunai with force, releasing a bolt of lightning that shot off the bde, slicing through the air in a straight line and extending several meters in front of him. The impact left a faint burnt smell in the air.

  Without stopping, Hiroshi let go of the kunai, but the lightning connecting it to him remained active. With a slight motion of his hand, he was able to manipute the weapon's trajectory at short range, making it spin in the air for a few seconds.

  —Not bad at all, —Miyuki commented calmly, evaluating her student's performance. —It's quite useful in combat.

  —Do you have anything else to show? —she asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. It was hard to believe that was all he had up his sleeve.

  Hiroshi shook his head silently, letting the kunai fall to the ground with a soft clink. Without wasting any time, he brought his hands together and began forming a series of seals with precision. Once the sequence was complete, he inhaled deeply, filling his lungs with air.

  —Fire Style: Fire Dragon Jutsu —he said to himself, focusing his chakra.

  As he exhaled, the air he expelled became enveloped in a fierce current of bzing chakra, which quickly transformed into an imposing fire dragon. The fiery creature roared as it charged forward, lighting up the surroundings with its glow and filling the air with the intense heat of its fmes.

  The fire dragon roared loudly and ferociously charged toward the nearby trees. As it advanced, the fmes wrapped around the trunks and branches, devouring them with relentless intensity. In just a few seconds, everything was reduced to a bnket of ashes fading into the air, while the residual heat vibrated in the atmosphere.

  —Impressive, —Miyuki praised, cpping with a small smile. —You've made great progress with your offensive jutsus, but you still need to improve on utility and defensive ones.

  Hiroshi panted, trying to catch his breath. The effort had drained a considerable amount of his chakra, but he wasn’t ready to stop yet.

  —Give me a moment... —he said with a breathless voice. —I have one st jutsu I want to show you.

  Miyuki nodded, giving him a moment to recover his breath.

  Hiroshi closed his eyes and took a few minutes, breathing slowly to regain his strength. When he felt ready, he inhaled deeply and said with determination:

  —I'm ready.

  —Perfect, we're waiting for you, —Miyuki replied, with a serene but attentive expression.

  Hiroshi nodded and made several hand seals. —Lightning Jutsu, Thunderbolt! —he excimed, and instantly, his body began to vibrate with the electrical energy accumuted within.

  He felt his body become light for a moment. As he took a step, the sensation was so intense that he thought he had covered miles in a single movement. Keeping his composure, he maintained control and proceeded cautiously, aware of every step he took.

  Immediately, he approached a tree and struck it with a punch charged with a rge amount of lightning chakra. As soon as he touched it, the chakra was released in an explosion, creating a small shockwave that completely destroyed the affected area.

  Akihiro watched the scene, impressed, and couldn't help but think of the Raikage. The jutsu was simir, though considerably weaker, but still impressive.

  Hiroshi fell to the ground, exhausted, and Miyuki quickly approached to assess his condition. Upon noticing there were no visible or internal injuries, she responded:

  —The jutsu is incredibly powerful, although its instability is a critical factor. For individual combat, it's extremely effective, but in group situations, it leaves something to be desired. Still, it's a very solid jutsu. Good job.

  Hiroshi colpsed to the ground, exhausted, but smiling with satisfaction. He was happy to see that all the effort he had put into perfecting this jutsu had not been in vain.

  Akihiro gently took him by the arms and carefully guided him to the resting area. Miyuki, seeing that Hiroshi was safe, turned to Akihiro.

  —Alright, now it's your turn, —she said firmly.

  Akihiro nodded without hesitation and stepped forward.
