Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 320 Shadow, Shadow Clone?
"start!"

Almost the instant she finished speaking, Hinata Hyuga formed hand seals, and the veins around her eyes bulged instantly.

Her once pure white eyes became sharp and oppressive. She shifted her feet and adopted the starting stance of a soft fist.

Soft Fist Techniques - Bagua Thirty-Two Palms.

The next moment, her figure shot towards Uchiha Sasuke like an arrow released from a bow, her speed so fast that it brought with it a sharp gust of wind!

Sensing the overwhelming malevolent aura, Sasuke Uchiha's eyes suddenly narrowed, his black pupils instantly turning crimson, and three tomoe clearly appeared.

One palm!
Four palms!

Eight palm strikes!

Hinata's attack was like a storm, her palms carrying chakra that could penetrate defenses and directly attack the meridians, turning into a dazzling array of palm shadows.

Ruthless and swift, completely devoid of the weakness and hesitation of the past, instead filled with a resolute ruthlessness, attacking Sasuke's pressure points from all sorts of tricky angles!

Ten blows!

Fourteen palm strikes!
Nineteen palm strikes!
"We can't let her hit us, otherwise this shadow clone..."

As he thought this, Sasuke's brows furrowed, and his Sharingan began to swirl.

With the Sharingan's powerful perception, he moved like a ghost amidst the dense palm shadows, his movements concise and efficient, always narrowly avoiding fatal palm strikes.

Hinata's attacks grew increasingly fierce, her eyes fixed solely on Sasuke.

The students on the sidelines had already held their breath, stunned by the intensity of the match, which far exceeded their usual level.

"Hinata..." Iruka's palms were sweating as he watched the situation closely, ready to intervene at any moment.

Sasuke calmly dodged the palm strikes while analyzing and anticipating Hinata's movements.

Finally, he caught a fleeting opening.

In the instant Hinata's palm strike missed, her old power exhausted and new power yet to be generated, Sasuke spun and soared into the air.

Not only did he evade the pursuit, but in the instant his body was in the air, he exerted force from his waist and abdomen, and a fierce whip kick swept towards Hinata's side like a steel whip!
boom!
Hinata Hyuga reacted quickly, bending her other arm swiftly to barely block the powerful whip kick, producing a muffled thud!
However, the tremendous impact still caused her a sharp pain in her arm, and the veins around her eyes became even more prominent and ferocious due to the pain and anger!
The pain did not deter her; instead, it ignited her long-suppressed rage, causing her to stare intently at Uchiha Sasuke in the air.

The figure before him overlapped with that of the one who betrayed his family, whose hands were stained with the blood of his loved ones, and the other's cold, piercing mockery echoed in his ears once more.

"You're still so timid and weak, you haven't improved at all, it's truly pathetic..."

“Even when faced with your father’s tragic death, and with me standing right in front of you, you are nothing but a powerless piece of trash who can only cry and tremble!” he said.

In an instant, the pent-up anger and pain erupted uncontrollably.

Hinata's Byakugan veins bulged, and all her chakra converged into her palms.

Raise your palm, bring your five fingers together, concentrate your highly compressed chakra into a single point, and suddenly swing it out at Sasuke in the air in front of you!

Hmph!

With a piercing whistling sound, an invisible yet terrifyingly powerful chakra tore through the air like a cannonball and blasted towards Sasuke's chest!

Bagua Empty Palm!

Upon seeing this, Sasuke Uchiha, who was still in the air and had nowhere to grab hold of, immediately changed his expression.

I can't dodge, I have to block it, otherwise the students behind me...

With this in mind, he quickly formed hand seals, moving so fast that they left afterimages. He took a deep breath, his cheeks puffing out.

Fire Release chakra condensed deep in his throat, then he forcefully exhaled it forward.

Art fire escape ho fireball!
"This distance!"

Having already sensed that Hinata was in bad shape, and with his eyes fixed on Naruto on the field, his pupils suddenly narrowed.

Although Sasuke instinctively held back, at such close range, it was inevitable that the two would be affected...

Kaka!

Without the slightest hesitation, Naruto's chakra surged, and two golden beams shot out from behind him, accompanied by a crisp metallic clang. "Stop!" At that moment, Iruka's stern shout rang out, his figure instantly disappearing from the sidelines and rushing onto the field.

The next moment, a fireball collided violently with the invisible wind pressure!
boom! !

The collision between the two triggered a deafening explosion.

The blazing flames and the wind tore at each other, creating a powerful shockwave that spread outwards, stirring up clouds of dust that made it almost impossible for the students around to open their eyes, and causing screams to erupt!
puff!puff!
Hinata Hyuga and Sasuke Uchiha were pulled out of the smoke and dust from the blast radius.

As the smoke and dust dissipated slightly, Iruka was half-squatting on the ground, his face still showing shock and anger, with Uchiha Sasuke tucked under his arm.

He looked down at Sasuke, but then saw the golden chain wrapped around his arm and paused for a moment.

Then, subconsciously, he looked up at Hinata Hyuga in the distance and saw the same chain tied around Hinata Hyuga's waist.

Just now, Iruka made a decision almost instantly, realizing that the explosion would be closer to Sasuke, while Hinata would only suffer some impact at most, so he prioritized saving Sasuke.

Surprisingly, Hinata was also unharmed.

Iruka followed the two golden chains and saw Naruto Uzumaki standing in the distance at the end of his line of sight. It was clearly Naruto who had used the chains.

"Naruto……"

Iruka instinctively opened his mouth, but before he could finish speaking, he was still speaking.

boom!
A soft sound rang out, and "Uchiha Sasuke," who was being held under Iruka's arm, suddenly turned into a wisp of white smoke and dissipated into the air.

Iruka's arm suddenly went limp, and he remained in a half-squatting position, staring blankly at his empty arm. He was completely stunned, his mind unable to process what was happening for a moment.

This...this is a shadow clone?

After a brief moment of stunned silence, a surge of anger and lingering fear welled up in Iruka's heart.

These two students, one used such dangerous martial arts in a classroom battle, and the other even used shadow clones to attend class!

Nonsense!

This is just nonsense!
Several veins bulged on his forehead, his teeth clenched so tightly they cracked, and he abruptly stood up, roaring, "Hinata Hyuga! And Sasuke Uchiha! You two..."

Meanwhile, deep within a secluded, quiet forest near a river on the edge of Konoha.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Strike Spear!"

With a low shout, a blinding white streak of light, like lightning tearing through the air, shot out from the shadows of the forest!

Its speed is so fast that its trajectory is almost impossible to catch with the naked eye. Wherever it goes, it leaves a trail of afterimages, piercing through leaves and tree trunks.

Sizzle! Bang!

The white light shot precisely into the center of the river and exploded instantly!

The surging lightning, carrying rampant electricity, spread rapidly through the water, emitting a teeth-grinding hissing sound, and suddenly blasted the river water apart, forming a brief depression.

The high temperature generated by the lightning release vaporized a large amount of river water, causing a white mist to rise, within which tiny arcs of electricity occasionally crackled.

Several unfortunate fish floated to the surface, belly up.

"Success!"

With a joyful shout, two figures leaped lightly from the woods and landed on the riverbank.

It was Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto who should have been in school.

Clearly, the two of them had skipped class using the "Shadow Clone Technique" and come here for more advanced ninjutsu development and training.

(I wrote 10,000 words today, and I originally wanted to post them all, but when I looked at the calendar, I realized I had to go to the hospital for a follow-up appointment today, and I don't know when I'll be back.)
(I'll leave 4,000 words as a reserve for now. If I get back early tomorrow, I'll continue writing 10,000 words a day QAQ)

　Also, although the concept of a daimyo is not very logical, it's something you can't avoid when writing Naruto fanfiction.

　　However, there's no need to dwell on whether it's reasonable or not; after all, the Daimyo of the five great nations are all left for Naruto to kill.

　　Naruto is currently staying in Konoha. Although he has book knowledge, his horizons are still not broadened, and he doesn't realize where the problem lies. He should find out later.
