Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird

Chapter 128 The battle begins

Uchiha Obito paused silently. The one-eyed man under the mask did not have much emotion. He spread his hands and exaggerated in a naughty tone like A Fei: "What are you talking about?"

At this moment, Danzo, whose brain was even more twisted than that of the Second Tsuchikage, just let out a low laugh.

"Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Madara. Afei, you have so many identities."

Danzo's voice made Obito fall into silence. The one eye under his mask narrowed slightly and looked at the other party sharply. Danzo's one eye, which was exposed outside the bandages wrapped around his face, just stared at him coldly.

Obito just chanted softly in a complicated voice that contained murderous intent.

"Danzo."

Danzo just laughed, looked at him with a mocking look, and said, "What? You don't plan to continue pretending?"

Although he didn't know where the other party had verified his identity, just from the fact that the other party was with Pein at the moment, Obito had already realized many problems. He was silent for a moment, looking at Pein with calm eyes in front of Danzo, and smiled leisurely: "So. Why did you come to see me?"

Payne stared at him indifferently and said calmly, "I need to find out what your real purpose is, that's all."

Pain, or rather Nagato, actually doesn't care about Obito's true identity or what his purpose is - there is only one thing he needs to focus on, and that is whether his plan can be fulfilled. Expand.

Just like Danzo standing next to him, although he wanted to kill the other party at the moment, as long as the other party was still helpful to his plan, then there was no harm in sparing the other party's life.

"My purpose?" Uchiha Obito's laughter under the mask vaguely revealed a hint of mockery and madness. He stretched out his hand, gently stroked the mask on his cheek, and laughed in a teasing voice: "Aren't our purposes the same?"

Payne's eyes were still calm. He just looked at Uchiha Obito quietly and said in a cold voice: "Then continue to act according to the original plan and don't create any complications."

Although he didn't say a word of threat, his pair of Samsara eyes stared at Uchiha Obito's single eye like a cone. Uchiha Obito narrowed his eyes, turned his head to look at Danzo, and sneered: "No problem, I will lead Hinata Yuzuru away according to the original plan, you take this opportunity to collect the tailed beasts."

As it happened, Obito and Pain were on the same page.

In any case, the top priority this time is to take this opportunity to collect the tailed beasts.

And Payne suddenly said: "Next, you and Danzo will act together - if possible, kill Hyuga Yuzuru.

His growth has already hindered the plan. Even if we can't kill him, we must hold him back."

Obito glanced at Danzo. For some reason, he felt that something was not right with the man wrapped in bandages. But he couldn't tell what was wrong. He just nodded and said, "Okay."

If any problems arise, it would be great if Danzo could cover our retreat.

Since the last time he fought against Hyuga Yuzuru, Obito has been unable to successfully collect more information about Hyuga Yuzuru. What kind of power does the opponent have now? Has he made any new breakthroughs? Does the strange white eye appear again now? New changes are all unknown.

When Pain heard Obito's agreement, he turned around and left cleanly. He didn't seem to be curious at all about why Obito hid his identity in Akatsuki, or why Danzo became what he is now.

At this moment, only Obito and Danzo were left staring at each other. The corners of Obito's mouth curled up coldly under his mask, but he didn't care at all about what the other person was thinking or what plans he had.

Danzo said in a hoarse voice: "Why? It seems that you have a lot of questions?"

"No, not at all." Uchiha Obito turned his head and slowly walked in another direction: "I'm just a little curious, a guy like you actually dared to take the initiative to provoke Hinata Yuzuru."

Danzo just heard Hyuga Yuzuru's name, and the twisted murderous intent in his eyes could not be suppressed. He let out a strange and vague low laugh. He didn't explain much, but just said: "You just need to follow the plan and lure Hyuga Yuzuru out."

Obito didn't ask any more questions.

No matter how many doubts there are, they will all be answered when the plan is implemented, no matter what secrets Danzo is hiding at the moment.

But after this incident, I'm afraid I won't be as comfortable as before when I move around in the Akatsuki organization.

Uchiha Obito's eyes were deep in thought, but in the end, the Sharingan in his eyes just turned calmly.

But no matter what, I can collect a tailed beast this time without saying a word.

Just collect all the tailed beasts.

As long as the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan can be activated, everything that is bothering me right now will be meaningless.

The cold wind blew out, and the leaves in the forest rustled. Under the cold moonlight, the figures gradually disappeared.

On the other hand, even though Uchiha Obito, the fun-loving person, caused some trouble for Hinata Yuzuru, the Chuunin Examination still had to proceed at the original pace.

On June 16, the first round of one-on-one competition was held as scheduled.

The opponents in the competition are randomly selected by drawing lots. The five shadows take turns to draw lots, which ensures the fairness and randomness of the draw. The results of the draw are also quite interesting.

In Konoha, the Twelve Young Warriors were all lucky enough to avoid a situation where their own people fought against each other, and the most noteworthy ones, Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine-Tails' helper, and Gaara, the One-Tailed Jinchuriki, also encountered quite weak opponents and did not encounter any waves. The first day of the competition came to an end.

However, the draw for the second round of the competition did arouse some interest.

Hyuga Neji and Lee, Uzumaki Naruto and Hinata, Uchiha Sasuke and Gaara.

Although the first two games were the civil war in Konoha, which was unlucky for most Konoha ninjas, Hyuga Yuzuru found it very interesting.

At this time, inside the arena, five shadows sat at the highest point of the stands in the corner, wearing their own costumes and shadow hats, sitting side by side, quietly watching the progress of the game.

"The Fifth Hokage, it seems that I have to apologize to you in advance."

Luo Sha said in a joking voice - the three lots just now were all drawn by him. It can be said that from Fengying's perspective, this is simply extremely lucky.

Hinata Yuzuru said leisurely: "Good and bad things go hand in hand. Before the results come out, the Fourth Kazekage should not be too happy."

Luo Sha let out a low laugh and stared at Gaara who was sitting below the arena. His eyes were filled with both expectation and a bit of complexity.

Gaara.
Don't let me down.
Hinata Yuzuru glanced at Rasa casually, then looked at Gaara, who was waiting for his turn with an expressionless face. He had only a slight disdain for Rasa in his heart.

The scum who trained his own son to be a killing weapon is not worthy of his attention, no matter his ability or character.

He turned his head and looked behind him. At this moment, there was only Uchiha Shisui behind him. Seeing Hyuga Yuzuru looking back, he nodded calmly with a mask on, indicating that everything was ready. Hyuga Yuzuru then stretched out his hand and waved gently to the referee in the distance.

The referee of this competition is Konoha's Jonin Sarutobi Asuma.

As a veteran jounin of Konoha, he is responsible for serving as a referee for a group of genin, or chuunin, and his level is more than adequate.

The chuunin exams began. Among the Konoha Twelve Young Masters, Shikamaru took the lead in the battle against his future wife Temari, and once again played the famous "I surrender" scene, which caused Rasa's face to darken, and she snorted coldly, leaving her speechless. .

Afterwards, Kankuro faced Omoi of Kumogakure, and the opponent used superb swordsmanship to cut off the chakra lines that controlled the puppet, and used electricity to move away, and used lightning to hit the iron puppet that was protecting it, directly paralyzed it, and turned pale.

When facing ordinary opponents, the strong men like Akimichi Chouji, who possessed their own unique secret techniques, fought hard, suffered minor injuries, and won the final victory of the Chunin Exam with joy on their faces.

And at the end of the game, the highlight of today's game finally arrived.

First up, it’s Neji versus Rock Lee.

Although Might Guy was unable to arrive at the scene because he was responsible for the mission of Konoha's Guard Department at the moment, he had reminded Lee before he left - if the opponent is an excellent ninja like Neji, he should take off the weights and give full play to his passion and youth.

However, even Kai did not expect that the opponent that Rock Lee faced was actually Neci.

The two teammates who usually support each other stepped onto the arena at this moment, but before Sarutobi Asuma announced the start of the game, they glanced at each other in unison. Above the stands, the Godaime was calmly watching the two of them. Naruto, Hinata Yuzuru.

Hinata Yuzuru smiled at them and waved his hands, and loudly said without any Hokage airs: "Come on, Neji, Xiao Li."

Facing the Hokage's "loud support", even Naruto, who hadn't played yet, couldn't help but feel his blood boiling. He grinned, looked at Hinata, who was looking down at him, and said carelessly: "Don't worry, don't worry! Hinata is also very strong!"

His words did not elicit any reaction from Hinata. This usually taciturn girl just nodded slightly, while Naruto scratched his head in distress, completely at a loss as to what to do.

He never thought about fighting Hinata. Wouldn't it be better to learn from Shikamaru and choose to admit defeat?

Just when they were in distress, Ningji and Rock Lee in the field had already formed the seal of opposition.

Xiao Li took a stance, put one hand in front of him, and grinned. His bright white teeth shone brightly in the afternoon sun. "Ningji! Come on! This time, I will try my best to prove to the Hokage and everyone that hard work can defeat genius!"

Neji also took a grim stance, with his hands in front of him, and said seriously, "Really? Unfortunately, under the gaze of the Godaime, I never thought of losing."

哥.
I won't let you down again.

He closed his eyes, and the moment he opened them again, the veins at the corners of his eyes were exposed.

"Konoha Tornado!"

Xiao Li shouted loudly, and his whole body flew out, with his leg muscles bulging as if they were expanding. The biting cold wind stirred up by his sudden flight and kick alone could be heard clearly by the audience below.

The other genin of the ninja village couldn't help but let out a low cry.

But what is even more exaggerated than Xiao Li's speed and strength is Neji's movements at this moment.

He did not dodge, but stretched out one hand, his left hand wrapped with blue chakra, and pinched Xiao Li's right leg in the air with great precision.

"Drink!"

Xiao Li was not surprised at all. As one of his legs was pinched, he fell down directly, with one hand on the ground and the other leg kicking upward diagonally.

Ningji raised his head and kicked hard, hitting Lee in the abdomen. Lee groaned and rolled on the ground several times before he got up, with shock in his eyes.

'So fast! '

"Aren't they comrades? I remember they were in the same team, right? They were really cruel."

‘Idiot, if you and I were fighting, would you choose to surrender directly? ’

"What an amazing taijutsu!"

The genin below let out sighs. Just one round of attack and defense had already initially demonstrated the physical skills of both sides.

"If you continue to attack me with this attitude, next time, I will finish you off without hesitation."

Neji stood still without pursuing, a hint of anger in his eyes: "Come on!"

Xiao Li was silent for a moment, grinned, reached out and untied the weight.

He reached out his hand, picked up the weights on his legs, and threw them aside.

"boom!"

The smoke rose up so much that it was impossible to look directly at it.

Xiao Li took a deep breath, and the exclamations of the audience in his ears were blocked by him. At this time, he only had Neji in his eyes.

"You know what? The Fifth Hokage once told me that even if you only know physical skills, you can become a very good ninja as long as you work hard enough."

His figure suddenly disappeared.

Neji's face remained calm, he lowered his horse stance steadily, and beside him, a Bagua formation seemed to emerge. In the area around him, Rock Lee's figure, which was originally so blurry that it was impossible to detect, became clearly visible.

Bagua·Sixty-Four Palms!

He suddenly struck out with his palm.

Xiao Li Fei's kick hit him, making a dull sound that made people's teeth ache, but this was just a prelude. The next moment, a series of collisions that were so intense that it was unbelievable began to sound wildly, and the dust was flying. Most of the Genin couldn't even catch the movements of their fight at the moment. They could only stare with wide eyes, watching the continuous collisions that seemed like afterimages intertwining with each other.

"You're kidding!?"

"Is this a Genin?"

"Can physical skills be done to this extent?"

Beside Hinata Yuzuru, the expressions of the four Kages could not help but change slightly.

Raikage Ai even exclaimed in praise: "What a wonderful Taijutsu duel. The boy with the watermelon hair, judging from the Taijutsu alone, is probably the strongest among this generation of Genin."

"Unfortunately, his opponent is the younger brother of the Fifth Hokage." Luo Sha looked at Xiao Li with a mocking expression, and said disdainfully: "Facing the soft fists and white eyes of the Hyuga clan, it is only a matter of time for a physical ninja like him to be defeated."

Ai just raised the corner of his mouth, feeling a little regretful - it would be great if this guy named Xiao Li was Kumogakure's ninja.

If the opponent can master the Thunder Chakra Mode of Cloud Hidden Village, his physical strength may be able to soar. If a body of such strength can be supplemented by the Thunder Chakra Mode, it will even be enough to have destructive power at the Jonin level.

If he could master the Lightning Release Chakra mode, he could even become a candidate for the Raikage.

The simple and crude fighting mode of Yunyin Village really needs such a talented physical superman.

unfortunately
In Konoha, this guy's limit is probably this.

After just a few words, the situation in the field had already come to an obvious conclusion.

Xiao Li was knocked away by the bright blue Kaiten. Neji glanced at him with a calm expression, and then turned to look at Asuma, waiting for the other party's verdict.

During the process of fists and feet touching each other just now, he had already used the soft fist chakra to penetrate into the opponent's body. At this moment, Xiao Li's hands and feet were probably numb to the point of being unable to move.

However, Sarutobi Asuma's expression remained unchanged. Instead, he smiled faintly at him, as if to say - you are still too young.

Neji frowned slightly.

In the distance, Xiao Li was kneeling on one knee, and at this moment, he was slowly raising his head.

The blood from being scratched by Huitian made him look a little embarrassed, but at this moment, Xiao Li's face was full of a smile that refused to admit defeat.

"I haven't fallen yet!"

Xiao Li's bright smile made Neji sigh softly. He lowered his eyes and raised his head again, his face only showing a stern expression.

I can't lose.

Ningji's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, with blue chakra wrapped around his hand, and he hit Lee's chest with his soft fist without hesitation.

However, to Neji's surprise, it was Xiao Li, who was about the same speed as him before, who used only one hand to grab his wrist first.

Chakra reaction. Become stronger?
It's the Eight Gates! ?
Ningji immediately realized what Lee was doing. At this moment, Lee was grinning, his aura rising, and the fighting spirit in his eyes continued to rise: "I said it's not over yet!"

"Back to the days!"

Ningji opened his arms and a blue cyclone exploded. Rock Lee was blown away again, but this time, what appeared in front of the audience was Rock Lee who regained his balance in the air. At this moment, he was rushed to the wall by inertia, but his feet stepped on the wall, his hands clamped on his sides, and he let out a loud shout.

"Boom!"

The wall of the arena condensed by Earth Escape was cracked by his kick, and it collapsed with a rumbling sound.

And the whole person rushed towards Neji's side like a missile.

Neji gritted his teeth. Even though the opponent was in his Bagua field, the extremely fast speed was still beyond his ability at the moment.

I saw it.

But
My body can’t move!
He had obviously seen Xiao Li's kick flying towards his chest, but all Neji could do was fold his hands in front of him.

"boom!"

There was another crackling sound, and Neji was kicked out directly. He was directly rushed to the wall on the other side, and he knelt down on one knee in a somewhat embarrassed state.

The moment I raised my head, Xiao Li was in front of me again.

He was running wildly all the way, his skin color had turned faintly red, and every step he took on the ground would make a loud bang, and pieces of broken soil would splash everywhere. He looked like a terrifying beast running wildly.

Yes. The gate of life.

Has this guy already opened the third gate of the Eight Gates in an instant!?
No, now, it's already the fourth level, the level of injury!

Although he did not successfully practice the Eight Gates, Ningji was fully aware of the power of the Eight Gates.

He once heard Hinata Yuzuru say that any ninja who could open four gates or more would have the physical ability of a Jonin or even higher.

The further you advance, the more terrifying your strength will be. If you can open the eight gates, that means you are at the pinnacle of physical ninja.

Neji didn't need to turn his head, with a 360-degree view, he could see Hinata Yuzuru watching him from behind.

哥.
"Ningji!
I!
To win! "

When the first word sounded, it was still far away.

But when the last words fell.

Xiao Li has arrived in front of him.

The surging waves of chakra in his body made it difficult for Neji to see his movements clearly with his Byakugan. Every move he made was like a huge chakra torch in action.

The so-called genius
A hint of a smile flashed across Neji's face.

Xiao Li clearly saw the smile on his face, but at this moment, he had made up his mind. With just one kick, Neji was kicked directly into the air.

Ningci!

This is me, the result of my hard work!
The tingling muscles and meridians all over Xiao Li's body were reminding him to fight quickly and decisively.

However, these pains made Xiao Li feel very clearly the burning passion of youth.

"Biao Lianhua!"

Ningji was kicked into the air by Rock Lee. The tremendous force even caused his brain to short-circuit for a moment, but before the dizziness completely disappeared, he managed to raise his hands.

At this moment, the expressions of the Kages in the stands have changed slightly, especially Goju Yagura from Kirigakure Village and Terumi Mei behind him. Both sides looked at Hinata Yuzuru in unison. The destructive power of this taijutsu, this The terrifying chakra aura has reminded them of some bad memories.

"Aren't you going to stop the competition? The Fifth Hokage?"

The Fourth Raikage suddenly spoke up. He really valued his talent.

Hinata Yuzuru just watched the scene calmly, and when he saw Neji being kicked high into the air, his lips curled up slightly.

"Ningci.
I haven’t lost yet.”

As soon as the words fell, several shadows had already seen some clues.

Xiao Li, who was on the field, took off boldly, kicked in the air, and went straight towards Ningji, who was being knocked into the air at this moment.

Neji's white eyes captured Xiao Li's movements without any blind spots, but there was no doubt that his body could not keep up with such speed.

only.
He stretched out his hand reluctantly.

Under Xiao Li's shocked gaze, a small blue cyclone in Neji's palm suddenly expanded into half a spiral air mask.

Back to the days!

He could actually use part of his body to release a small Kaiten! ?
“Is this the power of genius?”

Xiao Li's mumbling voice sounded at the moment of collision with him.

Huitian took the attack head-on, then shook and exploded, but it was enough.

Xiao Li was rushed to the ground by the reaction force, but the next moment, he flew up again.

He continued to attack Hyuga Neji from various angles, and Neji was completely unable to keep up with the opponent's speed, but he was able to predict and release a small Kaiten to resist each time.

It seemed that it was on the verge of collapse, was knocked into the air, and was even frozen in mid-air by Xiao Li's continuous attacks and stopped falling.

But surprisingly, he didn't suffer any more serious injuries.

This kind of move was mastered by my brother when he was younger than me!
Xiao Li
Actually, I am not a genius at all.
And to surpass true genius.

No, for the pursuit, for the ability to fight alongside such a genius
Have you really seen my efforts?
The obstruction of Xiao Li's continuous attacks made him realize that if he continued like this, he would only end up being dragged down first. He hesitated in his heart, gritted his teeth, and made a decision.

I. Want to win.

The fifth door, injury.
His action is not yet complete.

A hand had appeared in front of him.

With just a light flick of his finger, a soft fist chakra invaded his body. The chakra in his body suddenly became paralyzed, and his whole body stiffened, stopping his movements.

Xiao Li looked at Hinata Yuzuru who suddenly appeared in front of him, and said in surprise: "Godaime-sama"

“If you open the fifth door, your body will suffer irreversible damage.

For you now, the world after the fifth gate is still too early."

Hinata Yuzuru said softly, smiled slightly, and a bright green chakra light appeared in his hand.

He turned to look at Neji, who fell to the ground awkwardly due to inertia. The continuous release of Kaitian had already made Neji a little exhausted, but after taking a deep breath at this moment, he still stood up straight.

“No one wins or loses.”

Hinata Yuzuru made a verdict.

Neji remained silent, and so did Rock Lee. For them, it was hard to accept if the battle ended like this.

Neji believed that even if Xiao Li opened the fifth gate, he would have a chance to turn defeat into victory, and Xiao Li even believed that as long as he opened the fifth gate and used the Rirenhua to hit Ningji hard, he would almost be able to make Neji lose his ability to resist. Able.

Xiao Li untied the Eight Gates, and his knees went weak and he was about to fall to the ground. Hinata Yuzuru checked and confirmed that only his meridians were damaged and he just needed to rest for a while, so he directly asked the medical team to carry them to the hospital for treatment.

"It's not time for you to fight to the death yet."

He gave each of them a blow on the head.

The two genin covered their heads, looked at each other, and lost interest in fighting. Neji forced himself to go to the audience, while Xiao Li also wanted to be tougher, but in the end he was beaten by the medical class. Ninja put him on a stretcher and carried him away.

How could Hinata Yuzuru sit idly by and watch his family be destroyed like this?

After opening the fifth door, Xiao Li, even if he gets the best treatment at the first time, it is likely to affect his talent foundation.

Judging from the original work, Xiao Li definitely has the potential to open seven or even eight gates in the Fourth Ninja World War. However, after being seriously injured in a chuunin exam, he has never had any famous scenes. played.

Apart from the reasons that old thief Kishimoto could not describe, the most likely possibility is that the act of opening the five doors this time had a great impact on his body, causing his body to be unable to keep up in the future growth period.

He is still young, far from being as physically mature as Akai.

He still has a lot of potential to tap.

As for Neji, there was no need to fight any longer.

Li Lianhua took a hit from the fifth gate. Even if he had some way to turn the defeat into victory, in the end both sides would be injured. Staying in the hospital for half a year or a year would be a very bad thing for his growth.

At this moment, until the two Genin had left the field, bursts of applause rang out from the sidelines.

Hinata Yuzuru returned to his seat in an instant, and the shadows beside him made some sour sounds of congratulations.

"It looks like Konoha will have two more Chunins."

Hyuga Yuzuru smiled and seemed to be modest and kept saying things like being a child was still far behind, but everyone could see that the Fifth Hokage was in a happy mood and was very satisfied with his cub.

The next contestants finally appeared on stage after the Konoha ninjas repaired the examination room.

Naruto walked into the examination room and stared at Hinata Yuzuru in the distance eagerly. When Hinata Yuzuru saw his eyes, he knew what he was thinking, and smiled and raised his hand like before.

"Naruto, Hinata, come on!"

Uzumaki Naruto received support from his brother Yuzuru, and immediately raised his hand with full of enthusiasm and gave him a thumbs up: "Oh!!"

Hinata just lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed and bowed to Hinata Yuzuru in the distance.

Originally, Hyuga Yuzuru was quite looking forward to the showdown between Naruto and Hinata.

But I didn't expect that the competition process would be so boring and tedious.

Facing Naruto Uzumaki's massive crowd of shadow clone tactics, coupled with one Rasengan after another, Hinata barely managed to perform well before being beaten to the ground by Naruto.

Moreover, the injury was not that serious, so Hinata gave up struggling and waited for the referee's decision.

Hyuga Yuzuru lowered his eyes and looked at Hyuga Hinata who was climbing up in the distance with her head still lowered. He reached out and gently pinched the bridge of his nose. He was silent for a moment and did not say anything for the time being.

She became weaker.

This is not to say that there is no improvement compared to the level of previous years, but if it is to the extent that she can fight back and forth against Neji in previous years, her progress is obviously much slower.

The fighting spirit is also somewhat weak.

This has nothing to do with the fact that the opponent is Naruto, Hinata Yuzuru can see that.

Probably some psychological problem.

Naruto didn't realize what was wrong with Hinata at all. He happily helped Hinata up. Seeing that the other person was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief and grinned at Hinata Yuzuru, who nodded slightly to him. , Naruto left the game satisfied.

The last battle after that was the one that all the Kage were looking forward to, the battle between the Uchiha clan and the One-Tailed Jinchuriki Gaara.

Gaara stepped onto the arena with an expressionless face. His opponent, Uchiha Sasuke, also had a stern expression and did not seem to have any emotion at all. But just when they were facing each other, one could feel the faint auras of both sides touching each other.

"Why don't you need the Godaime Hokage to cheer you up?"

Gaara looked at Uchiha Sasuke in front of him with mockery in his words.

Uchiha Sasuke's expression was indifferent: "There is no need to deal with you."

When it comes to speaking, Uchiha Sasuke has always been as good as anyone in his life.

A bit of crazy murderous intent appeared on Gaara's face. He raised the corners of his mouth and said in a tone that seemed to be somewhat expectant: "Really?"

"I really want to see if that hypocritical guy will shed tears when he sees your corpse."

As soon as Gaara finished his words, a steady stream of sand came out of the gourd behind him.

Seeing this, Asuma Sarutobi didn't waste any time and directly announced the start of the game. He stepped back, but his mind was already concentrated. He subconsciously glanced at Hinata Yuzuru first, and seeing that the other party was still sitting there, he felt relieved.

If nothing unexpected happened in this game.
"Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"

Sasuke was the first to attack.

A dense burst of flames flew towards Gaara. He just stared at the flames with an indifferent expression, his hands still clasped in front of him, looking extremely confident.

The sand behind him formed a barrier in front of him. At the same time, a small sand eyeball flew high into the sky.

As expected, Sasuke's figure was approaching at high speed with the help of flames. A trace of boredom flashed across Gaara's face. He turned his head quietly and looked towards the stands. The Fourth Kazekage Rasa on the stands was staring at him expressionlessly.

Isn't it time yet?
Gaara was somewhat impatiently suppressing the murderous intent in his heart - if he had a choice, he really hoped that the person he would kill now would be the so-called father in the stands.

Sasuke's figure passed through the sand, and a sharp kunai flashed out from the shadow. Gaara did not dodge, allowing the kunai to fall on his body, making a crisp ding sound, and was bounced off by the sand armor on his body.

Two rows of sand formed an arm, and the moment it swept across its side, the end of the arm made of sand broke away and turned into a sharp kunai, shooting across the field.

While Sasuke was moving at high speed, the three magatama in his eyes were flashing, and his expression remained unchanged.

Several kunai flew out from his hands, colliding in the air and changing their trajectories many times, then passed through the sand and landed close to Gaara.

Do you look down on me?
"burst!"

There was a sudden low shout, and the next moment, Gaara's face changed slightly. He looked at the ordinary kunai and found that it had been equipped with a detonating tag without him noticing.

The huge explosion instantly kicked up a cloud of dust, and Gaara flew backwards for a distance. The sand behind him couldn't catch up with the speed at which he was blown away. He fell to the ground, rolled around a few times, and was slowly lifted up by the sand. Some cracks appeared on the body.

"It's noisy."

Rather than the damage caused by the explosion, the sound of the explosion at close range became the reason for Gaara's anger.

He stretched out his hand and the sand surged.

"Sand-bound coffin!"

The sand that was left on the ground suddenly rushed towards Uchiha Sasuke, tightly wrapping around his legs, and then more sand fixed him in place.

A bloodthirsty look appeared on Gaara's face. During the entire Chunin Exam, due to the interference of Konoha's Anbu, he did not kill a single person. Although he was not a cruel monster who had to kill people, he still felt unhappy from the bottom of his heart when ants that he could easily kill were rescued every time.

Well, this time, no one can interfere with my movements.

"Sand Waterfall Funeral!"

The sand was suddenly wrapped in huge pressure, but there was no explosion of blood inside as Gaara expected. Only a faint smoke floated out.

Shadow clone! ?

"Rachel!"

The huge lightning came rushing towards him at a speed that was enough to cut off thunder. Gaara only had time to stretch out his hand and create a small shield. The next moment, he was hit directly by Raikiri and was blown away like a cannonball. The sand armor on his shoulder was torn, and blood was surging, shining with his red hair.

It hit the wall heavily, and the terrible impact force directly destroyed a section of the wall that had just been reinforced. Gaara's face showed a ferocious look. At this time, he no longer wanted to think about the trivial matters he had been reminded of before. There was only one thought in his mind, to kill the guy in front of him!
And at this moment, Hinata Yuzuru in the stands suddenly frowned.

It only took him a second to think briefly, and then he suddenly said to Shisui behind him: "Prioritize the protection of students."

He formed seals with his hands to first release the seal on his body, and then, he quickly formed seals with his hands again. Under the surprised gazes of the other shadows, he slapped the ground at the moment, and two wooden coffins rose up behind him.

Everyone was subconsciously prepared for battle.

However, Hyuga Yuzuru just whispered to Ai and Onoki: "Please take care of your students."

Almost as soon as the words fell, Oonoki and Ai realized what was happening.

Two figures flashed, and the next moment, the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village quickly began to evacuate the scene. Even the students who didn't understand what was happening listened to the instructions of the teacher in charge and left before the chaos broke out.

Asuma, who was acting as the referee on the field, also immediately realized the situation. Without waiting for the reaction of the two people who were still fighting on the field, he rushed directly to Sasuke and took Sasuke away in an instant.

"Whoosh!"

Fireworks exploded in the air as the ANBU released them.

And some sand appeared around Luosha, sneering: "Godaime, what are you doing?"

"It depends on what you want to do, doesn't it?"

The moment Hinata Yuzuru's calm voice fell.

The two coffins behind him suddenly popped open.

The figures of Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama emerged from it, and the faces of everyone present changed.

A person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. Even though the two Filthy Earthmen had just appeared and had not done anything, they were enough to make everyone feel tremendous pressure.

"Shodaime, Nidaime, the command here is temporarily handed over to you."

Without waiting for the first and second generation to ask what happened.

Hinata Yuzuru sighed and said, "I'll be back soon."

The next moment, the whole person suddenly disappeared along with Flying Thunder God.

Senju Hashirama looked around, smiled awkwardly and scratched his head: "It's really strange to be summoned by my own juniors for emergency. Anyway, no matter what happens, if you are not an enemy of Konoha, please don't attack the people of Konoha. Sorry."

Senju Tobirama had a stern expression, looked around, and snorted: "I told you, brother, your plan back then was really unreliable. If the tailed beasts had stayed in Konoha, there wouldn't have been so many problems."

"Well." Senju Hashirama let out a long sigh.

The conversation between the two made Rasa and Karuta Yagura look at each other. Both sides looked at Hinata Yuzuru who disappeared at this moment, and they didn't know whether they should take action under such circumstances.

What happened to Hinata Yuzuru?

Luo Sha vaguely remembered something, her face changed slightly, and the next moment, she realized the problem.

Could it be those eyes?
Predict future! ?
That is
The next moment, a huge explosion suddenly sounded around the arena.

Several terrifying giant psychic beasts suddenly appeared around the arena at a height exceeding the arena.

The orange-haired woman standing on a multi-headed hellhound, staring at everyone in the field with an expressionless face. She was the Animal Path among Pain's Six Paths.

Luo Sha looked at Karuju Yagura: "Your people?"

Goji Yagura glanced at Luo Sha expressionlessly, stretched out his hand to form a seal: "Water Release: Water Dragon Technique!"

At this moment, the targets of his water-style ninjutsu were several Konoha jonin present.

Seeing that Goju Yagura had already taken action, Luo Sha no longer hesitated and stood up brazenly.

Since Hinata Yuzuru has been lured away, it means that the time has come.

"Kill Konoha!"

At his roar, the Sand Village and the Mist Village tore off their disguises at the same time and rushed towards the Konoha ninjas present.

Gaara in the field looked coldly at the people below the field, and was carried by the senior ninja Maki, ready to head towards Konoha.

Although this place is dozens of kilometers away from Konoha, for a ninja, it is only a matter of an hour or so of rapid rush.

"Sorry if that's the case."

Senju Hashirama spoke slowly.

"Please just stay here until the Godaime comes back."
