Konoha: The Gu Master Creates the Hokage.

Chapter 179 The Battle of Taijutsu Ninjas (First and Second Updates)

"Zhihui-kun!"

Karin and Yamanaka Ino shouted at the same time.

Before You Nu Zhihui could answer, the two exchanged a glance, then both snorted coldly and turned away.

Hinata Hyuga opened her mouth.

Why is there suddenly another competitor?

She hadn't really paid much attention to Karin.

All we know is that he was a temporary member of Team 7, used to replace Naruto Uzumaki when he went out for training.

Hinata Hyuga glanced at Shiki Aburame.

The doubt turned into sudden realization.

It's normal for Karin to like him.

But this situation is getting more and more complicated... I don't know if I can outmaneuver them.

Hinata Hyuga clutched the hem of her clothes, somewhat uneasy.

"It's time for you to go on stage."

"That's what Yu Nu Zhihui said calmly."

"Shiki-kun, I'll definitely beat her!"

Karin clenched her fist and said with great enthusiasm.

"Don't cry if you lose later."

Yamanaka Ino retorted sharply.

The two distanced themselves, forming a bond of antagonism.

"start."

"That's what Genma Shiranui said."

Yamanaka Ino retreated without hesitation.

She had already investigated Karin beforehand and knew that she was a ninja from the Uzumaki clan who was skilled in sealing techniques.

Sealing techniques are essentially a type of auxiliary ninjutsu used in combat, and are actually more difficult than ordinary ninjutsu.

As long as they are not caught, the sealing technique will not be triggered.

Yamanaka Ino casually waved his hand.

Six kunai were suddenly thrown out.

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

Karin stood still.

A golden chain flew out of her body without warning.

It snaked through the air like a long serpent.

After six consecutive sounds, the six kunai fell to the ground.

At the same time, two Yamanaka Ino appeared on either side of Yamanaka Ino; these were shadow clones.

Karin took a step forward, quickly closing the distance to her speed.

Her body trembled slightly, and four more golden chains extended out.

Six chains struck the three mountain dwellers.

With a bang.

Yamanaka Ino threw a smoke bomb.

Karin lost her sight, but remained completely calm.

The six chains intersect to form a net.

They enveloped the smoke and contracted.

"Gotcha! Ino!"

Karin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.

The smoke dissipated.

All three mountain dwellers were bound.

But the next second, they turned into wisps of white smoke.

Karin's smile froze.

Are these all shadow clones?

Just then, a mental shockwave struck her.

"I caught you."

Ino Yamanaka's voice echoed in Karin's mind.

"hateful!"

Karin felt her body was losing control.

She fought back.

A large amount of chakra surged out, forming waves around her.

Her hair flew up.

Yamanaka Ino was startled.

Karin's willpower was stronger than she had imagined.

Of course, the most important thing is that she has too much chakra, which gives her the possibility to struggle.

Without Ido, Yamanaka Ino would definitely have given up.

But she has it now.

To the onlookers, the fight between the two suddenly stopped.

After losing control of her Adamantine Lock, Karin fell helplessly to the ground.

But soon, her chakra began to flow out as if it were free.

Just as everyone was surprised, a huge amount of chakra also emerged from Yamanaka Ino's body.

It just gives people a completely different feeling.

If Karin represents passion and vitality, then she represents coldness and death.

"Yang Release and Yin Release."

Oil Girl Zhihui raised an eyebrow.

That's quite a strange coincidence.

Hinata Hyuga clenched her fists instinctively.

Judging from their aura alone, the two of them already possessed more chakra than most Jonin.

But she won't admit defeat when it comes to Yu Nu Zhihui.

"When did Ino become so strong?"

Sakura Haruno, sitting in the audience, stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.

How did my best friend, who was once my equal, suddenly develop to this extent?

"It's because of Zhihui."

Nara Shikamaru yawned and said.

"No!"

After a few seconds of silence, Sakura Haruno said, "I'll catch up with Ino as soon as possible!"

"..."

Nara Shikamaru glanced at her, knowing she had misunderstood.

This isn't the magic of love; it's a cheat code given to me by Aburame Shiki.

"You guys are really lucky."

Nara Shikaku said with a sigh.

Today is the Chunin Exams, and he has a rare day off, so he doesn't have to deal with Konoha's administrative affairs anymore.

"What kind of luck?"

Yamanaka Inoichi coughed and said, "This is because my daughter has a discerning eye."

Pigs, deer, and butterflies have always been one.

Moreover, Yamanaka Ino's strength increased dramatically after obtaining Ido, which could no longer be concealed.

They all know the reason.

"I feel like I've seen this little guy somewhere before."

"I'm going to talk to you," said Choza Akimichi, stroking his chin.

"Isn't it too late to start building a relationship now?"

Yamanaka Inoichi remarked.

Just as Akimichi Choza was about to explain, the tug-of-war between Yamanaka Ino and Karin was coming to an end.

Although Karin has a lot of chakra, it is still not as much as Ido's.

After being nearly exhausted, she could not resist Yamanaka Ino's mental invasion and was forced to admit defeat.

"Next time it won't be so easy!"

Karin said unwillingly.

"I know."

Yamanaka Ino extended her hand and said sincerely, "You're amazing."

She won, but only because of Ido, not because of her true strength.

"The really bad stuff is yet to come."

Karin gave a soft hum and took her hand, saying...

"Me too."

Yamanaka Ino smiled and said, "We'll have another match sometime."

She was referring to the time after she had completely absorbed Idu.

Karin's gaze sharpened.

Sparks seemed to fly between their eyes.

"Please, both of you, leave the stage."

Genma Shiranui reminded them, "Give the court to the next player."

"Oh? I'm sorry."

Yamanaka Ino and Karin immediately lost all their momentum.

After giving a slight bow, he jogged away.

"Hyuga Neji vs. Sen."

After drawing his lot, Genma Shiranui shouted loudly.

Hyuga Neji and Sen walked to the center of the field, but less than half a minute later, they came back down.

"Neji Hyuga wins!"

Genma Shiranui announced.

"This was a battle with absolutely no suspense."

Violet couldn't help but sigh as she watched her teammate disappear in an instant.

In the ninja world, taijutsu ninjas are often discriminated against due to various restrictions.

But there are exceptions.

That is the Hyuga clan.

The combination of Byakugan and Gentle Fist is often invincible among ordinary ninjas.

However, Violet was more interested in Rock Lee.

He had heard of Might Guy back in Sunagakure.

Especially after Gaara told him about Naruto's Eight Gates technique, he developed the idea of ​​fighting him.

Unfortunately, he didn't meet the protagonist of the story.

But Rock Lee is the same.

"There are three people left, the probability is very high."

Violet looked at Rock Lee.

He returned the look with a fierce, fighting gaze.

Shino Aburame adjusted her glasses.

He was perfectly ignored once again.

When will he be able to show off his parasitic insects so as to restore the prestige of the Aburame clan?

Although Shiki Aburame is ridiculously strong, few people associate him with the Aburame clan.

Everyone considered this an exception.

Normal oil-loving women wouldn't go to this extent.

"Violet vs. Rock Lee"

Genma Shiranui paused for a moment and then said, "The remaining person will automatically have a bye and will move on to the next round."

Gaara, standing on the high platform, instinctively sat up straight.

Yoru and Sen's failure was not beyond his expectations.

Both of them were at the normal Genin level.

But their opponents are not.

Gaara couldn't help but marvel at how many talented people Konoha Village had to offer.

For now, we can only rely on Violet.

In his view, his Seven-Day Breathing Technique was no weaker than the Eight Gates Formation.

Tsunade glanced at him, then looked at Violet and Rock Lee on the field.

But her gaze quickly fell on Zhihui, the oil lady, who was not far away.

"Little Li."

Violet clasped her hands in a fist and said, "Please enlighten me!"

"good!"

Rock Lee, looking incredibly excited, declared, "Let them see what a true taijutsu ninja is like!"

As he spoke, he took off his weights, and when he landed on the ground, there were two loud thuds.

"You are indeed a formidable opponent."

Zi Luo's gaze turned serious as she spoke.

He assumed a fighting stance, and his chakra silently surged forth.

"Leaf Whirlwind!"

Rock Lee shouted and shot out like a green lightning bolt.

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

His roundhouse kick reached Violet in an instant.

Zi Luo calmly crossed her arms and braced his right leg.

A loud bang.

The impact of the two collisions created a shockwave.

"Again!"

Lee Rock said excitedly.

The two men became entangled, exchanging blows and kicks so fast that only two afterimages remained.

"The Sand Village actually has such a skilled taijutsu ninja?"

Kakashi Hatake was somewhat surprised.

"To be able to fight Li to this extent, that's pretty impressive."

Kurenai nodded slightly and said.

"No, Xiao Li is at a disadvantage."

Matt Kay's eyes flickered as he spoke.

"what?"

Kurenai asked with a surprised look, "Why do you say that?"

Have you noticed any problems?

Matt Kay pointed at Violet, "His palm strikes are silent."

There was indeed no sound.

After observing for a moment, Kakashi Hatake said in surprise.

"How is this possible?"

Kurenai asked, puzzled.

"His chakra spread out like a feather, eliminating the vibration of his punch."

Sarutobi Asuma exclaimed.

"He also knows acupressure."

Kakashi Hatake raised an eyebrow and said, "Lee is in trouble."

"Little Li!"

Matt Kay shouted, "Don't let your youth be filled with regrets!"

With a loud bang!

A large amount of chakra surged from Rock Lee's body.

The third gate of the Eight Gates Formation, the Gate of Life, opens!

His hair stood on end, and waves of chakra enveloped his body, making him look menacing.

Zi Luo quickly retreated.

He stared intently at Lee Locke and took a deep breath.

"Is this the Eight Gates Formation?"

Violet's breathing began to quicken.

"Exactly!"

Rock Lee looked at Violet and said, "This is my way of showing you respect!"

In the battle just now, he had already experienced the power of Violet.

Putting aside the Eight Gates Formation, the two are evenly matched.

Such an opponent is enough to make him give it his all.

"It truly lives up to its reputation!"

Violet laughed heartily and shouted, "Seven-Day Breathing Technique - First Activity!"

In an instant, the wind and clouds surged.

An incredibly powerful surge of chakra erupted from his body.

His imposing presence was in no way inferior to Rock Lee's.

"This is so exciting!"

After a slight pause, Lee Locke felt a surge of excitement.

He understood the difficulties faced by taijutsu ninjas, so he was quite surprised by Violet's appearance.

I am not alone on this path!

The two figures collided.

In an instant, the ground cracked and dust flew everywhere.

The onlookers were stunned.

They never imagined that battles between taijutsu ninjas could reach such an intense level.

"What kind of martial arts technique is this?"

Tsunade asked slowly.

"Seven-Day Breathing Method".

Gaara replied, "This is a martial art created by Violet herself."

"Original creation?"

Tsunade praised, "To be able to create such a taijutsu, he possesses unimaginable talent in taijutsu."

"Little Li is not bad either."

Gaara said modestly.

Tsunade watched the battle unfold, her gaze narrowing slightly.

Whether it's the Eight Gates Formation or the Seven-Day Breathing Technique, both place a tremendous burden on the body.

They can't last long, so a winner will soon be decided.

"Violet!"

Rock Lee roared, "This is the final blow!"

Open the wound gate!

The gate is closed, but it's open!

A massive wave of chakra surged into the sky.

His physical abilities are inferior to Naruto's, so he must finish the battle quickly.

"good!"

Violet's face was full of determination, and he was also very excited, inspired by Rock Lee.

Seven-Day Breathing Method - Third Activity!

Golden chakra enveloped him.

His black hair stood on end, his muscles bulged, and shockwaves kicked up rubble that swirled around him.

"This is what youth is all about!"

The bandages on Rock Lee's body were removed.

He arrived in front of Zi Luo in an instant.

Li Lianhua!

Bandages fluttered everywhere and wrapped around Zi Luo.

But his reaction speed is also quite fast.

The air currents surged in layers, as if a tsunami had appeared out of nowhere.

Wherever it passed, the ground twisted and the gravel turned into dust.

"As expected of Naruto's junior brother, Lee's strength is by no means weak."

Yamanaka Ino was dumbfounded.

"Naruto is stronger."

Uchiha Sasuke said, his Sharingan gleaming with three tomoe.

Rock Lee and Violet were too fast; without activating his Sharingan, he couldn't see what was happening at all.

"The fifth door?"

Hyuga Neji looked serious.

This was the first time he had seen Rock Lee after he opened the fifth door.

While not quite as good as Naruto Uzumaki, he's not far off.

Lee Locke in this state made him feel extremely troubled.

The only solution he could think of was to strike first and prevent him from opening the Eight Gates.

"Zhihui-kun, did Xiao Li win?"

Yamanaka Ino looked at Aburame Shiki.

"We won."

Yu Nu Zhihui nodded.

A few seconds later, two figures appeared in front of everyone.

Violet took a step forward, but stumbled and fell to the ground.

Lee Rock, struggling to stay upright and panting heavily, stared intently at him.

"I...I give up."

Violet raised her right hand.

Upon hearing this, Rock Lee relaxed and collapsed to the ground.

The two looked at each other and both smiled.

The medical team outside the scene rushed forward and carried the two people away.

"pity."

Gaara said regretfully as he saw Violet lose.

"There's nothing to regret."

Tsunade smiled faintly and said, "When it comes to taijutsu ninjas in the future, we will definitely have to mention these two."

Gaara thought for a moment and understood what she meant.

There are many skilled ninjas, but skilled taijutsu ninjas are few and far between.

At least the goal of making Sunagakure famous has been achieved.

"Lady Tsunade."

Suddenly, Shizune appeared and said, "Rock Lee's body is too weak to fight due to the Eight Gates technique, so he requests to withdraw."

"His health is the most important thing; let him rest and recuperate."

"That's what Tsunade replied."

"Hinata Hyuga, Shiki Aburame, Sasuke Uchiha, Ino Yamanaka, Neji Hyuga, and Shino Aburame."

Upon receiving news of Rock Lee's withdrawal from the tournament, Genma Shiranui announced, "These six will advance to the next round."

Two-in-one.
