Pirate: If you are immortal, I will first fill up the overlord color.

Chapter 568 Kimimaro VS Shikamaru
"I surrender!"

Slowly raising her right hand, Aburame Shino said with a sigh.

The opponent's ability was a natural counter to his bugs. The icy cold even made it impossible for the bugs to get close to the opponent and were frozen.

He could even see through his sunglasses that in the air ahead and on the ground, a layer of white frost was spreading rapidly and had already reached his feet.

When he said the words of surrender, the coldness suddenly stopped.

Shiranui Genma appeared in a flash, looked at Bai in surprise, and then waved his hand: "The winner is Bai!"

The battle was quick and short.

Aburame Shino tightened her collar and walked silently to the backstage.

It can be said that the battle ended as soon as it began, which was entirely due to the huge gap in strength between the two.

When Bai returned to the backstage again, the Konoha ninjas looked at him with fear in their eyes.

Then, the third match began soon.

"Jūgo V Kankuro!"

As the host announced the list, two figures walked into the venue.

When they saw clearly the two figures of huge size difference in the center, there were bursts of exclamations from the audience.

“Is this guy also a child?”

"Even stronger and taller than I am!"

"Just looking at the appearance, they all feel oppressive."

"That kid from Sand Village is in trouble!"

Just by looking at the appearance, all the audience can vaguely sense which side will win the duel.

"The duel begins!"

Genma Shiranui waved his hand, stepped back, and revealed the venue to the two of them.

Kankuro looked solemnly at the strong boy who was standing quietly in front of him with no expression on his face.

"This guy looks difficult to deal with."

"The people of the Hidden Rain Village are really not simple!"

"There's no other way, I can only fight hard!"

He gritted his teeth and reached out to pull backwards.

"Carrara!"

In an instant, the puppet behind him quickly split apart, making a creepy sound that made one's scalp tingle.

Then, the next second.

"crow!"

Kankuro shouted.

His figure ran quickly forward, and the crows ran on the ground just as quickly. In a blink of an eye, they came to Shigeo's front, one on the left and one on the right.

"jump!"

Kankuro jumped high, and the crow made a karaoke sound, actively attacking Jūgo.

"Shh!"

The cold blade burst out from the crow's body.

Shigeo looked up at the puppet with three eyes and four arms, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Then he clenched his fists and waved his arms forward.

"boom!"

The punch was direct, fast, powerful, and collided with the crow in the blink of an eye.

At the moment the two sides collided, the crow's whole body shook, and all its parts were almost shaken away. Its entire body flew backwards and rolled on the ground.

"crow?!"

Kankuro's eyes widened and he looked at Jūgo in shock.

The latter also raised his head at this time.

The next second, his knees bent slightly.

"boom!"

The ground collapsed, and Shigeo's huge body moved incredibly fast and was already in front of him.

Kankuro realized the ferocity of the attack and quickly blocked it with his arms in front of him.

"boom!"

The dull sound made the hearts of all the spectators jump.

Kankuro's pupils contracted, and then his body flew backwards like a crow, rolling a long distance on the ground.

The whole audience was speechless and became extremely quiet.

It was a clean and simple offensive method, but the violent force contained in it left everyone speechless.

"What a terrifying taijutsu!"

"His innate advantages are too strong!"

"This guy's physique even exceeds the physical fitness of ordinary jonin."

Shocked voices were heard one after another.

Kai's expression also became serious, staring at the burly young man in the field: "What a pure physical training practitioner!"

"If Xiao Li runs into him, it might not be good either."

Kakashi nodded: "This boy's strength is indeed extraordinary, and I'm afraid he is not just a physical training."

After a pause, he spoke again in a deep voice.

"The ninjas of the Hidden Rain Village are much stronger than those of other villages."

"It's really hard to imagine how a village could be developed to such a level in such a short period of time!"

After saying this, he looked towards the podium.

Uchiha Fugaku was watching the battle calmly at this moment.

"Carrara!"

At this moment, the crow in the field suddenly moved, attracting the attention of everyone present. Its four arms supported the ground and it crawled on the ground like a strange spider.

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

Then, his body suddenly ran wildly, and his four arms bounced quickly on the ground.

Kankuro also jumped up suddenly and swung his right hand.

"Hey~"

The hidden weapon flew out and headed straight for Shigeo in front.

The latter dodged the attack by moving his body to the side.

At this time, the crow had already appeared in front of him, and sharp weapons had emerged from its four arms, stabbing towards Shigeo quickly.

The latter stepped back. Although his body was huge, he was extremely agile and dodged it easily.

After five or six breaths, he raised his right foot, brushed the gap of the opponent's attack, and kneed the crow in the abdomen.

"boom!"

A dull crashing sound was heard, a circle of ripples spread out, and then there was a cracking sound, and the crow's abdomen cracked, and it flew backwards again.

"crow!!"

Kankuro's expression changed drastically, and there was shock in his eyes.

It was the first time he saw someone who could easily deal with him and Crow purely relying on physical skills.

With anger in their hearts, they rushed forward and attacked Shigeo.

Punching, kicking, attacking like a storm.

But Shigeo remained expressionless, and simply put his arms in front of him like a wall, completely blocking all attacks.

Kankuro was shocked and found that his attack had no effect at all. He suddenly pulled out the weapon at his waist and swung it at the opponent's arm.

But Shigeo reacted faster, and with just a flip of his arm, he had already grabbed his wrist.

The enormous force caused Kankuro to feel pain in an instant. He let out a scream, and the kunai in his hand fell out of his hand.

"Admit defeat."

"I don't mean to hurt anyone!"

Shigeo said softly.

"what?"

Kankuro widened his eyes and looked at Jūgo who stopped attacking, feeling incredible.

After a moment, his expression became complicated.

"call!"

After taking a deep breath, he raised his other hand.

"I surrender!"

This battle also ended quickly, and the result was not beyond everyone's expectations.

There is a huge gap between Jūgo's physique and combat proficiency and Kankuro's.

The audience was extremely noisy, with everyone discussing the battle.

"Except for the first game, the Hidden Rain Village has won two games in a row!"

"So strong!"

"Is this really just a genin?"

People were amazed, and even some Konoha Chunin began to doubt themselves, because even if they played in person, they probably wouldn't be able to defeat the Chunin in this match.

"The fourth match, Haruno Sakura VS Yamanaka Ino!"

Soon, the battle began again.

The intensity of this battle was obviously not as strong as the previous two.

Although the fight was equally intense, it was more in line with the combat situation of a Genin and also ended quickly, with the two ending in a draw with no winner.

The fifth match was between Tenten and Temari, and Temari won in the end.

Next, the game entered the sixth game.

"Nara Shikamaru VS Kimimaro!"

When the duel list appeared, everyone's eyes lit up.

In the background.

"It's that guy's turn!"

Naruto and Sasuke were both shocked and looked at the young man with white hair, white robe and indifferent expression not far away.

"It's your turn, Kimimaro!"

Hozuki Said with a smile.

"I'll be back soon!"

Kimimaro said calmly.

Then, he turned around and entered the field.

"Shikamaru, be careful!"

"This guy looks unusual."

Akimichi Choji said worriedly.

"Do not worry."

Shikamaru said with a smile.

Then he turned and walked towards the arena, with a serious look in his eyes.

Soon, the two players arrived at the competition venue and stood face to face.

"Game start!"

Genma Shiranui looked at Kimimaro seriously, waved his hand slowly, and moved away.

But the two people standing face to face did not move, but seemed to be observing each other.

"I heard that the Kaguya clan is a famous fighting clan."

"I am very powerful, but I am also a person who is afraid of trouble."

"So, can you please let me play this round?"

Shikamaru said with a relaxed smile.

These words stunned everyone and made them burst into laughter.

"no!"

Kimimaro shook his head slowly.

He didn't seem to understand the other party's joke to ease the atmosphere, and remained serious and earnest.

"Alas, there is nothing we can do about it!"

Shikamaru sighed.

Then he looked up at the sun above his head, squinted his eyes, and looked at the other person's figure.

As the sun moved, the shadows of the two people slowly lengthened due to the angle.

"Can you please see the power of the Kaguya clan?"

"I heard that your clan has a very scary bloodline limit."

Shikamaru said again, holding the kunai at his waist in his hand, ready for battle.

"can!"

Kimimaro did not refuse.

When these two words were heard, everyone became alert.

They all widened their eyes and looked towards the field.

The Hyuga clan's bone lineage is actually very mysterious. Many people have never seen it. They have only heard that it is very terrifying, but few people know what the specific situation is.

The next second, when Kimimaro slowly raised his hand and reached behind him.

Everyone's expression froze, and then they felt their scalps tingling, a chill rising from their backs, and their throats began to roll.

"Kai, are you kidding me?!"

"He pulled out his own spine?!"

Fearful, trembling voices rang out from the audience, and everyone was watching this scene in shock.

"It's really unexpected!"

Kakashi's pupils contracted as he stared at the young man in white in the field.

"Hey, hey, hey, my scalp just feels tingling!"

Kai's eyelids were trembling as well.

No one expected that the beginning of this battle would be so intense. The young man in white actually pulled out his spine.

Shikamaru's pupils were dizzy at this moment. He stared at the young man in white in front of him and felt greatly shocked.

"Shu~"

Kimimaro pulled out a spine about 1.2 meters long, then swung it diagonally, making a whistling sound in the air.

At the same time, the spine also changes, one end becomes flat and becomes a blade, while the other end has sharp barbs.

A bone blade suddenly took shape and was held firmly in Kimimaro's hand.

"can we start?"

He slowly raised his head and looked calmly at Shikamaru in front of him.

“It’s already started!”

Shikamaru sighed and slowly formed seals with his hands.

Silently, the shadow on the ground suddenly became long and narrow, stretched into a line, and then quickly reached behind Kimimaro.

But just as the shadow suddenly straightened, Kimimaro took a step forward.

Shikamaru's pupils suddenly contracted and he froze in place.

Shadow imitation, failed!!
"Shh!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew from the front and Shikamaru looked up suddenly.

White bone blades, white loose robes, and white hair bloomed in the air at the same time.

Kimimaro had already arrived in front of him, incredibly fast.

The bone blade flew towards him, but Shikamaru tilted his neck back to avoid the attack.

At the same time, he flicked his right hand at his waist.

"Shh!"

The kunai was thrown out and hit Kimimaro who was close at hand.

The latter's eyes wavered, and he swung the bone blade in his hand, chopping it on the kunai.

"when!"

Sparks flew and the kunai was blown away.

But Shikamaru took advantage of this gap to fly backwards and get out of Kimimaro's attack range.

"His taijutsu is extremely oppressive!"

"Even better than that guy named Jūgo!"

Shikamaru thought to himself, his expression becoming extremely solemn in an instant.

"If you want to fight, you have to keep your distance."

"This is really troublesome. We must use our brains in this battle!"

"Otherwise, we will lose miserably!"

While he was thinking, Kimimaro in front of him was like a graceful dancer, but every movement was vague and carried a cold murderous intent.

"Shh!"

The bone blade brushed past his head, causing his hair to fall, and Shikamaru broke out in a cold sweat.

If the knife had been an inch shorter, the top of his head would have been blown off.

Shikamaru quickly retreated with his legs, putting some distance between himself and the other person again, a thin layer of sweat visibly appearing on his forehead.

"so close!"

The next second, Kimimaro's figure rushed over again.

He held the bone blade in one hand, his robe fluttering, and when he swung the blade, it was as if he was dancing, graceful and ethereal.

Shikamaru jumped up and down, totally unaware of his own miserable appearance.

Time goes by.

Everyone was watching this battle nervously.

About dozens of seconds later, the moment Kimimaro's feet landed on the ground, Shikamaru's eyes suddenly focused and he quickly formed seals with his hands.

"it's time!"

"Shadow Mimicry!"

In the shadow where Kimimaro landed, a long and narrow shadow instantly connected with him.

In an instant, Kimimaro's body shook and he stopped there.

"call!"

Shikamaru let out a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Finally, it worked!"

He had been hiding during the long battle, but he was also secretly observing the environment, terrain, and shadows in the venue.

Finally, under the intentional or unintentional guidance, the other party stepped into the shadow and completed the shadow imitation technique.

At this moment, there was a loud roar from the audience.

"so amazing!"

"It's hard to imagine seeing this kind of forbearance here."

"That boy's name is Nara Shikamaru, right? He's from the Nara family, and he's really good at playing with his brain!"

Waves of sound were heard.

A smile also appeared on Shikamaru's face. Completing the shadow imitation technique meant that the victory of this battle had been determined.

However, just as he was about to control the other party, his expression suddenly changed.

Kimimaro was seen holding a bone blade in his right hand and swinging it diagonally downwards.

"Shh!"

The linked shadows on the ground suddenly broke.

The whole place suddenly fell silent.
