Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

A burst of white smoke erupted, and a tiny, granular Rasengan suddenly appeared behind Shinki.

"boom!"

"Squeak..."

The wind blades kept tearing through the shield formed by the iron sand, and at that moment, another miniature Rasengan suddenly appeared from another direction.

"Whoosh!"

The iron sand covered everything, just like Gaara's absolute defense back then, blocking all attacks.

"I told you, if you had kept this kind of unsealable ninjutsu hidden until now, I might have been caught off guard and fallen into its trap. But now... do you think I'll give you that chance again?"

Shinji didn't move an inch, but as soon as he finished speaking, the iron sand suddenly formed two giant hands, which directly shattered all the miniature Rasengans with a single slap.

The next moment, the giant hand clenched into a fist and slammed down towards Boruto.

"puff!"

Another puff of white smoke appeared. Shinki frowned. When did this happen?

If the initial shadow clones were created by forming hand seals during a flash of lightning, then now...

"boom!!"

Another giant hand blocked Boruto, then withdrew and retreated in the next moment.

Another surprise attack failed, and Boruto said helplessly, "It really is like a tortoise shell..."

Shinki: "No, it will be over soon. The moment you came into close contact with my iron sand, it already meant it was almost over."

Boruto frowned: "What are you talking about that I don't understand? Are you bragging again?"

……

Chapter 470: Why Can't I Lose?

"This generation of Sunagakure has produced an extraordinary little fellow."

In the stands, Kurotsuchi teased Gaara.

Chojuro asked in confusion, "As far as I know, the last person to possess the power of Magnet Release was the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure, right?"

Naruto looked directly at Gaara: "Isn't he your son? How is he involved with the Third Kazekage?"

Gaara glanced at Naruto: "Shinki is an orphan, and I don't know the specifics. But I gave him everything I had, and now it seems he has inherited my will."

Kurotsuchi smiled: "The Hokage doesn't seem worried about his son at all. That kid with Magnet Release has already completed his tactics."

Naruto shook his head slightly and replied calmly, "After the opponent comes into contact with the iron sand, transfer the fine iron sand into the opponent's body, and use magnetic force to control the next attack to ensure that it will hit and cannot be dodged."

“We can all see that. He’s a very intelligent child, and he has indeed inherited the Kazekage’s will. But… so what?”

“I think failing once is actually a good thing for him. I also want to see how he will react to failure now.”

As soon as the words were spoken, the offensive and defensive dynamics on the field shifted.

……

"Next, you can't escape it."

After Shinki finished speaking, the iron sand around him scattered and then coalesced, forming feather-like iron sands that became the sharpest blades.

The sharp direction felt as if it sensed the magnetism within Boruto's body.

"Your defeat is inevitable."

"Shhhhh..."

The feathers flew swiftly, making a sound like tearing through the air.

In the stands, Hinata and Himawari clenched their fists nervously. Hinata had even activated her Tenseigan, ready to rush in and save her son at the slightest provocation.

Although she's always disobedient, we've raised her for so many years, and Hinata is ready to take action at any time.

"Mommy, Mommy! Look at my brother!"

"boom!!!"

In an instant, a burst of crimson chakra erupted within Boruto's body.

Each grain of iron sand was expelled from the body by this chakra, and in an instant, all the surrounding iron sand feathers were attracted to these particles.

The crisis was averted, but Boruto's body was under considerable pressure.

However, he did not pause at all, because the chakra he had bought with money was not much, and unlike his father, he had become accustomed to the Nine-Tails after living with it for many years.

"Om..."

Amidst the buzzing sound, crimson chakra suddenly coalesced on his palm.

This is a Rasengan formed by borrowing the Nine-Tails' chakra within him, and it is also the strongest display of his power right now.

"Shh!"

Instead of throwing it, it gathered in his hand like Naruto's Rasengan and sped towards the enemy!

Strands of iron sand gathered in front of Shinki, but under the sudden attack, they were too late to coalesce into the best defensive form.

"Squeak..."

The Rasengan formed from chakra collided with the iron sand, and the intense cutting sound made everyone in the venue hear a piercing noise.

"Who would be foolish enough to reveal their trump card right from the start? You bragging bastard! How about this move?!"

Boruto roared, and the chakra stored within his body exploded forth in an instant.

The size of the Rasengan increased dramatically, and the condensed iron sand gradually burst open.

"So this was your hidden trump card. But having inherited my father's will, I don't want to lose yet!"

Shinji also unleashed his inner power, sending layers of iron sand surging towards Boruto like ocean waves.

This was the opponent's final blow; after this duel comes tomorrow's final.

The adult his father always mentioned, the one who pulled him out of the darkness, was his true target!

"boom!!!"

A loud bang was followed by a cloud of dust.

Immediately, most people in the hall stood up, wanting to see the situation of the two people clearly.

"Who's winning?"

"The power that the Hokage's son just unleashed was so terrifying, he must have won, right?"

"Bullshit! Our Kazekage's adopted son is just as powerful!"

……

Center of the stands.

Chojuro asked with a serious expression, "That chakra just now was from the Nine-Tails, wasn't it?"

Heitu, standing nearby, chimed in, "Is that alright?"

Naruto and Gaara remained silent, but Shikamaru behind them said, "The rules don't prohibit Jinchuriki from participating. Storing the Tailed Beast's chakra within one's body can be considered a form of Jinchuriki, right..."

As he spoke, Shikamaru looked at his brother-in-law: "Just like Araya from Sunagakure before, since the rules do not state that examinees must enter the examination room in their original form at the beginning, this is also within the scope of the rules."

Gaara remained silent for a moment before nodding.

Borrowing the chakra of a tailed beast is not something anyone can do.

Gaining the approval of a Tailed Beast is inherently difficult. Furthermore, considering the compatibility between the Tailed Beast's chakra and one's own, even Boruto hasn't stored much, and his body wouldn't be able to handle it.

Most importantly... Shinki won, didn't he?

Looking at the venue again, everything had already settled down.

Shinki was panting but did not collapse, but the iron sand in front of him could no longer be condensed into a solid shape.

Boruto, on the other hand, was blasted away by that attack, the wall behind him cracked, and he himself fell to the ground.

"You lost."

"what."

Boruto agreed, sat up with some difficulty, and slowly raised his hand, saying, "I lost."

Shinji was somewhat surprised by his calm expression: "You... as the son of the Fifth Hokage, aren't you frustrated about losing the match?"

Boruto braced himself with his hands behind his back, looking up at Shinji: "Why be discouraged? If you lost this time, just train hard and win next time, right? I'm not just Dad's son, I'm myself, Uzumaki Boruto..."

Boruto sighed, "Seeing you like this reminds me of myself when I was in school. Although we expressed it differently, we both desperately wanted our father's approval and to be recognized by everyone."

Images flashed through my mind.

At that time...

After becoming the Fifth Hokage, my father was incredibly busy. From as far back as I can remember, because the entire ninja world was undergoing a complete reform, my father rarely had the chance to have a meal with his family.

The closest relatives gradually became estranged, and after entering school, the voices around him always mentioned his father who was never home.

And he was also given another title besides Boruto: the son of the Fifth Hokage.

He hated this nickname.

But later...

In the world of illusion, she has lost her parents, and the Nine Ramas inside her tempts her to take over her body every day.

The way the villagers looked at him changed; they treated him as if he were a plague, and even getting close to him would be met with disgust.

Every day when I come home, there are no delicious meals prepared by my mother, only buckets of instant noodles that are about to expire, or expired milk.

He wanted to train to become stronger, but apart from the Three Body Techniques and shuriken and kunai throwing taught at the Ninja Academy, he had no other opportunities to learn other ninjutsu.

He wanted to gain the approval of the Nine-Tailed Fox, but he almost got his body possessed by this stinky fox.

After the graduation exam, everything was unremarkable; his teammates were unremarkable; and his instructors, the Jonin, were equally unremarkable.

One Wind Release: Wind Blade is all that can be learned.

Soon, the Ninja World War broke out.
