I rely on myself

Chapter 722 Testing each other
"It's so easy."

Jun said this in a puzzled tone, and in front of him was Lie who was completely frozen.

Because they are teammates, Jun is very clear about Lie's strength. Because of this, even now when he sees Lie being frozen in the ice with his own eyes, he still has a very unreal feeling, and he trusts this feeling very much.

'Could it be that……'

With suspicion, Jun naturally thought of something quickly, but it was too late.

"Bah!"

Along with the piercing sound, Jun was stabbed in the heart from behind, and the sharp tip of the kunai even pierced out of his chest.

Looking down at the kunai that pierced his heart, Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Did you fall for the trick?"

"Just each other."

A voice came from behind Jun, it was Rei, who at this moment was holding a kunai and pierced Jun's heart from the back. Seeing this scene, the audience around were obviously startled.

Although fighting between ninjas does involve a lot of killing, that only happens between different villages. The two people competing now are obviously from the same country, yet someone died. How could this not surprise the spectators around them?

But only ordinary people were surprised. Some ninja viewers had already noticed something, and some sharp-eyed ones had even seen through the trick long ago.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the frozen Lie exploded into a puff of smoke like a punctured balloon. It was obvious that this was just a clone.

"Sure enough, when I saw how easy it was to catch you, I felt strange. It turned out to be just a clone. I was fooled by you."

Looking at this scene, Jun completely ignored the fatal wound on his chest and said with a smile, and at this time Lie also said: "So what are you talking about? Aren't you the same as me?"

As he spoke, Lie turned his wrist and the kunai was pulled out in an instant. However, because of this rough action, no blood flowed from the wound on Jun's body. Only some tiny ice cubes splashed as the kunai was pulled out.

"I felt something was wrong when I pierced it. Didn't you also use your clone to test it like me?"

Although he was questioning, Rei's tone was very certain. Hearing this, Jun smiled and said, "So you have never considered that I might be the real one? How sad."

Although he said sad words, Jun's face did not show any sadness. Instead, he was smiling, and his body gradually faded in color and turned into an ice sculpture. Then, starting from the wound on his chest, a large number of cracks quickly spread out. The next moment, the ice sculpture instantly broke into a large number of small ice cubes that scattered all over the ground.

It is obvious that this Jun is also a clone, and he is using the ice clone technique that can only be used by the Mizunotsuki clan's bloodline limit. Compared with ordinary clones, it is more practical and can even be used as a medium to perform ninjutsu.

Looking at the dissipating ice clone, Lie quickly shifted his gaze and looked at the surrounding ice mirrors, only to see that Jun's figure had reappeared in these ice mirrors at some point, and after a fight, the battle situation returned to the previous confrontation.

"Why, you're not going to attack?"

Lie suddenly started to challenge, and Jun was not to be outdone in this regard and fought back: "Forget it, there is no need to make such a simple provocation. If nothing unexpected happens, the one on the field now is also your clone, right? You are just waiting for me to make a move, and then observe where my real body is, right?" "" "Have you been seen through?"

Lie was not surprised at all about being seen through as a clone. After all, as mentioned before, the two of them were teammates and had worked together many times in missions. Naturally, they were very familiar with each other's fighting styles, so there was nothing he could do about being seen through.

But because of this, both sides were in a difficult situation. Both of them were testing each other. If they were not 100% sure, neither of them would attack in person. Therefore, both sides began to compete in endurance.

If such a confrontation falls into the eyes of an expert, he will naturally be able to see the mystery, but the current situation is that more of the outsiders are ordinary villagers, wealthy businessmen and nobles.

Seeing the two people on the field confronting each other without taking any action, he was naturally unhappy.

After all, they came all the way here not to watch this, but to witness all kinds of exciting ninjutsu duels, so after a short while, waves of dissatisfied urging voices came from the surrounding audience seats.

Neither Lie nor Jun paid much attention to this. It would be better to say that even these external factors were part of the two people's competition of patience. Whoever couldn't sit still and took action first would fall into a passive position.

Lie was on guard cautiously. Although the one on the field was just a clone and it didn't matter much if it was destroyed, Lie certainly hoped that this clone could gain more advantages if possible, so he didn't remove it even if it had been discovered.

"Well!"

Soon, Lie suddenly felt that the temperature around him seemed to drop too quickly. At the same time, although the air around him was very dark, some white mist rose to a greater or lesser extent, and there was also some frost on the ground.

"Something is wrong! Even if the temperature on the field has dropped due to the magic mirror ice crystal, it shouldn't be this low. It's more like another, more hidden technique."

Thinking of this, Lie suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart. He felt that if he didn't do something, the game would end directly and he would lose.

Without any hesitation, Lie's clone suddenly formed seals quickly. Jun, who had been paying attention, naturally did not notice this action. When he saw this scene, Jun looked as if he had expected it.

From the beginning, Jun didn't think that his little action would go unnoticed. It was just a matter of time, and now it was just coming true.

However, having said that, Jun would naturally not just watch Lie act without stopping him, so he formed seals with his hands.

"Water Style: Thousand Waters Shosha!"

Dense thousands of swords burst out from the surrounding ice mirrors again, completely surrounding the space around Lie's clone, leaving no gaps, and instantly blew it into smoke.

However, before Jun could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly discovered that the smoke from the exploded clone not only did not dissipate, but became more condensed and quickly spread around. In the moment before Jun could react, the surrounding area was completely covered by smoke, and he could not see the surrounding situation at all.

"Is this... a smoke bomb? The seal is just a bait, the real action is the smoke bomb, are you trying to take advantage of it?!"

Thinking of this, Jun didn't care about consumption and directly launched the ninjutsu: "Ice Release Freeze the Earth!"
