Hinata: I'm in charge of Konoha.

Chapter 107 Final List

The Eight Gates Formation.

It was started by Matt Daly, passed to Matt Kay, and then to Rock Lee.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as the ultimate secret of martial arts.

When the Gate of Death opens, even Madara Uchiha, who has already reached the Six Paths level, has to retreat.

At present, Rock Lee has only opened the fifth gate, the Gate of Extinction.

But at this point, Rock Lee had almost reached the limit of his peers.

With a punch, Rock Lee shattered the puppet blocking his way and charged toward the Hermit at lightning speed.

The Eight Gates Formation is a powerful combat ability obtained by pushing the body to its limits.

This means that if the physical strength is not high enough, the duration of the effect is quite limited.

Therefore, Rock Lee must eliminate the Toneri as quickly as possible!

Sherman was naturally aware of Lee Locke's purpose.

The remaining dozen or so puppets gathered around the man, trying to slow down Rock Lee.

The servant wanted to use the time the puppet had bought him to prepare a new technique.

If it weren't for Hinata, Toneri would have already given up at this point.

but----

Forget it, let's keep playing.

Sheren remained silent, clasped his hands together, and a bluish-green light once again appeared before him.

Although Toneri, a member of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon, had lived on Earth since he was five years old, after Otsutsuki Kaneki fought a life-or-death battle with Uchiha Obito, he was given all the secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon by a secret method.

In other words, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe Sheren as a walking library!

A bluish-green light shone from his palm and returned to his body.

All of this happened so fast that even Kakashi only saw a flash of light before it disappeared.

But in that short moment, Xiao Li had already broken through the puppet's blockade and suddenly attacked Sheren!

but----

Under Hinata's Byakugan gaze, the chakra in Toneri's entire body had changed from blue to cyan.

The speed of chakra flow has increased by more than double!

Furthermore, that bluish-green chakra was continuously permeating his entire body through his meridians!

This applies not only to the surface of the body, but also to the internal organs!

This is!

Tenseigan Chakra Mode?!

No, it's not the Tenseigan Chakra Mode!

Rather, it's a similar state!

Rather than calling it the Tenseigan chakra mode, it's more accurate to say it's the prototype of that mode!

At that moment, Rock Lee had already rushed up to the man in front of him!

A transparent, bluish-green flame swirled around Sheren as he slowly raised his palm in response to Rock Lee's attack.

Then----

One punch!

Their fists collided, and a violent shockwave erupted between Xiao Li and Sheren!

Sheren actually managed to block Lee's opening of the Du Gate using his least favorite martial arts skills!

This scene shocked everyone.

Li, who has opened five gates, is already strong enough. I didn’t expect that this puppeteer could actually withstand it with his bare body!

Seeing this, Xiao Li felt a chill and lifted one leg, attempting to kick the servant.

But he was blocked by the servant's leg as well!

Just as Xiao Li was in shock, Sheren raised his other hand and punched Xiao Li in the chest!

In an instant, Xiao Li vanished and retreated rapidly backward!

The arena beneath Sheren's feet shattered, transforming into a streak of green light that chased after Xiao Li!

Shiren, who has never been known for his physical prowess, actually caught up with Lee in terms of speed!

Seeing this, Xiao Li stopped retreating and launched an attack on Sheren!

In an instant, the clash of fists and feet between the two sides generated a series of chakra shockwaves!

Fist and palm, leg and foot, elbow and knee!

The two men made full use of every part of the human body!

In a very short time, the entire arena was filled with the figures of two people!

The ground beneath their feet groaned in pain, and in a short while, the once smooth arena was riddled with holes!

Each clash represents a break in the ring; no previous duel had caused as much damage as these two!

"Are they... like us, genin?"

Someone in the stands couldn't help but mutter to themselves.

Hinata calmly looked at the two people below the stage.

Rock Lee is about to collapse.

The Eight Gates Formation is a secret technique for quick and decisive battles.

Now that Toneri has used the secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon to improve his least favorite physical skills to such an extent, even the Fifth Gate's strength cannot guarantee a quick victory.

Xiao Li's defeat is already obvious to the naked eye.

And what Shiren meant by not being good at physical skills—

That's only relative to other people.

Toneri's taijutsu is enough to hang up and beat people like Kiba Inuzuka and Naruto Uzumaki.

Just as Hinata thought, Rock Lee, who was fighting against Toneri, became increasingly powerless as time went by.

The side effects of the Eight Gates technique began to take effect, and the blazing green chakra flames on his body started to dim, causing his speed to slow down noticeably.

After barely managing to force Sheren back with a single punch, Xiao Li stood there panting heavily, his body staggering and nearly falling to the ground.

Seeing this, the attendant did not press his advantage but calmly watched Li.

The green flames of the human form slowly receded into his body, as if nothing had happened.

"Shall we continue?"

Sheren spoke calmly.

The voice wasn't loud, but it pierced Xiao Li's heart like a needle.

Xiao Li was somewhat unwilling, but the current situation was clear to him.

He lost.

Even with the Eight Gates activated and all techniques employed, he was still suppressed by his opponent from beginning to end.

"I----"

"I admit defeat."

Li took a deep breath and raised his arm under the pitying gaze of Matt Kai in the stands.

He has already given it his all.

Even if I lose, I will have no regrets.

"The victor is Hyuga Toneri!"

With Hayate Gekko announcing the results of the competition, the Chunin Exams finally came to an end.

"We will now begin randomly selecting the matchups for the third Chunin Exam!"

"All the winners will come down and draw lots."

"The third match will begin in one month!"

Moonlight Gale is always concise and to the point, never wasting words. As soon as the match ended, he immediately began preparing for the next one.

The lottery results came out quickly, and the list was announced accordingly.

Hinata Hyuga VS Naruto Uzumaki.

Nara Shikamaru VS Hyuga Toneri.

Uchiha Sasuke VS Chojuro.

Aburame Shino VS Akimichi Choji.

Everyone looked at the opponents listed on the slips of paper in their hands, their hearts filled with mixed emotions.

Should I just admit defeat?

Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at the note in his hand listing his opponent.

Sheren's battle had just ended; that level of combat power was simply not something he could possibly bluff against.

Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but glance at the blond man not far away again.

Compared to himself, this guy is much more—

"Hinata Hyuga!"

"I will utterly defeat you in this battle!"

"I'm going to prove that the so-called predetermined fate is utter nonsense!"

"People should take their own destiny into their own hands!"

Just as everyone was having different thoughts, a blond guy suddenly jumped out and shouted at Hinata.

"Ha, you think you can take it?"

Hinata looked at the blond-haired man and sneered, then stepped on the note with Naruto Uzumaki written on it.
