Naruto: Nawaki was already dead, how could you bring him back to life?

He leaped up and landed in the stream beside him, beginning to form hand seals: "Now I'll show you the power of our Mist Hidden Water Release!"

Water Release: Chaotic Blade Slash!

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Water blades formed from condensed streams of water suddenly materialized, resembling flying scythes. Under the control of the Hidden Mist ninja, they whistled towards Chiba and Kosuke not far away.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

Almost instantly, Kosuke completed the hand seals, and a barrier made of water rose up with a roar. At the same time, Chiba's figure darted out and rushed towards Shunsui.

Wow~~~

The sharp water blades were all blocked by the water array wall, and the chakra contained in the two was barely canceled out, while they turned into water and scattered all over the ground.

"What?! Water Release: Water..."

The Hidden Mist ninja was taken aback. He quickly changed his move and began forming hand seals again, but before he could even begin, Kosuke had already finished.

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"

A water dragon roared as it burst forth from the stream, its body swirling as it viciously bit at the Hidden Mist ninja who was forming hand seals.

"Damn, you're a Konoha genin, and your Water Release techniques are better than our Kirigakure's?!"

The Hidden Mist ninja's expression changed drastically. He quickly dodged, but he was still a beat too slow. He was swept into the air by the incoming water dragon and lost control.

Don't ask, the answer is that I've been captured.

"Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to that kid Chunshui! Following that idiot and kicking a hornet's nest!"

This was the Hidden Mist Ninja's last thought. The next moment, Kosuke's willow-leaf-shaped sword slashed through his neck.

puff.

The corpse of the Hidden Mist ninja fell heavily into the water, and the gushing blood quickly turned the stream red.

"How can this be?!"

Shunsui was shocked when he fought Chiba. He never expected that Kosuke, who looked unremarkable, would kill his companion in just two rounds.

The key question is... what on earth was that incredible water escaping technique they used?!

"Now you know whose home turf this is, right?"

Chiba sneered and pointed to the ground, saying, "This is where you'll all die!"

clap clap.

Chiba and Shunsui ran across the stream, using various water-based techniques as they ran, countering each other's moves and splashing water everywhere.

Water Release: Water Blade!

"Water Release: Water Cannon!"

Chunshui raised her hand and waved, sending water blades flying towards Qianye. Qianye simply stepped on the water, and several water cannons shot up, completely scattering the incoming water blades.

"Water Release·Exploding Water Wave!"

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

As the spring water roared, waves of water burst forth and crashed towards Chiba, but Chiba remained calm and easily blocked them with a water barrier.

No matter what moves Shunsui used, Chiba could always neutralize them with the simplest Water Release technique. His control over Water Release chakra secretly alarmed Shunsui.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Chunshui's mentality collapsed. He never expected that his Water Release technique, which he was so proud of, was not as good as a kid from Konoha.

...Is this some kind of joke? Which of us is actually from Kirigakure?!

"Impossible! I absolutely refuse to accept dying at the hands of a brat!"

With a roar, Chunshui leaped out of the stream, his body suspended in mid-air, his hands forming a hand seal, his chest bulging, and he spat out a series of water bullets at Qianye.

"Water Release: Exploding Water Barrage!"

After spitting out the water bullet, Chunshui landed and her figure swayed. She turned around and fled into the distance without looking back.

In a one-on-one fight, he couldn't even defeat Chiba. Now that Kosuke has freed up his hands and is rushing over here, is he just waiting to die if he doesn't run?!

"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"

Faced with the incoming water bullets, Chiba neither dodged nor evaded, but instead took the initiative to meet the water bullets head-on, slapping his hands on the ground by the stream and using Earth Release, a technique he had never used before.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Just as the water bullet was about to hit Chiba, Kosuke appeared in front of Chiba and swung his sword to deflect the incoming water bullet for him.

At the same time, the earth-attribute chakra that Chiba poured into the ground also spread to the feet of Shunsui.

pat!

The ground beneath Chunshui's feet instantly turned into a huge swamp. Chunshui never expected that Chiba could unleash such a large-scale earth-escape technique. His legs went weak, and half of his body sank into it.

"asshole!"

Chunshui cursed angrily and struggled desperately to steady himself, but trapped in the swamp, he had nowhere to grab onto and the more he struggled, the deeper he sank.

Chapter 44: Acquires swordsmanship, experiments with Ryohei.

"Damn it, how come you, a Konoha ninja, are so skilled in Water Release and Earth Release?!"

In the swamp, Chunshui struggled and cursed, "Are all the ninjas of Konoha this lazy and irresponsible?!"

"Hmm, if I knew Wood Release, wouldn't you die even faster?" Chiba pondered for a moment before answering seriously.

Chunshui: "..."

Damn, what this kid said makes so much sense that he couldn't refute it for a moment.

"I never imagined that I would die not at the hands of Guruguru, but at the hands of a mere brat from Konoha!"

Before being completely swallowed by the swamp, Shunsui's eyes, the only thing remaining above the swamp, stared intently at Chiba, as if he were going to hell with his memories of him.

pat.

The next moment, Chunshui was completely swallowed by the swamp.

A few bubbles that rise from the swamp and quickly dissipate are the last traces of spring water in this world.

After dealing with the two Hidden Mist ninjas, the two quickly arrived at Uzuki Yuhi's side.

"So, is there any hope for this girl?"

Looking at the almost lifeless Uzuki Utsuki, Kosuke asked worriedly as he surveyed the surroundings.

"It's hard to say. That bastard's knife swing was too brutal. We can only try to salvage it."

Chiba examined the wound on Uzuki Yuhi's chest, his expression grim. A piercing wound like that would be fatal to an ordinary person.

Swish!

Chiba carried Uzuki Yuhi on his back, and the two quickly moved away to avoid attracting the attention of other ninja village examinees.

They found a secluded spot, and Gu Jie hid at a distance to keep watch.

Chiba used Earth Release to temporarily carve out a space, took off Uzuki Yuhi's clothes, and began to treat the injury on her chest.

The Uzuki clan is a family with a long history in Konoha, so the reward shouldn't be too shabby. Besides, it's a C-rank... old classmate. Chiba thinks he should try to help... if he can, he should.

"Phew, it's okay."

After receiving treatment, Chiba secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Uzuki Yuhi's will to live was strong, and her life was saved.

[Ding! Healing successful! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Konoha-style swordsmanship "Oborozuki Yoru"!]

【"Oborozukiyo": A graceful swordsmanship that, like a dance, draws countless moon-like afterimages with the blade, blurring the line between reality and illusion!】

"First it was Shadow Dance Steps, then it was Obscure Moon Night. Is the system trying to make me come back to cross-dress and seduce Shisui Obito?"

Chiba shook his head somewhat helplessly, but he was still very satisfied with the reward, "Oborozuki Yoru".

Although Chiba is proficient in physical skills and hidden weapons, he knows nothing about weapons such as swords. Sometimes when he encounters enemies who are skilled in swordsmanship, he is at a disadvantage because he does not know how to use weapons.

In the 21st century, what is most lacking is well-rounded talent, and Chiba does not allow himself to have any shortcomings.

...Sigh, I wonder if he'll ever have a chance to return to Earth in this lifetime. He hasn't even deleted his browsing history yet.

"Senior Kosuke, then I'll leave her to you. I'm going to kill that disgusting guy!"

Chiba finished bandaging Uzuki Yuhi's wounds and getting dressed before getting up to leave. He rushed to Kosuke's side and whispered something to him.

In his hand, he still held Uzuki Yuhi's samurai sword.

“Okay.” Kosuke knew that Chiba was holding back his anger, so he didn’t say anything more and simply agreed.

……

In the woods, a one-armed figure, clutching his other arm, ran desperately toward the edge of the forest.

"That bitch Uzuki Yuhi! She definitely knows the inside story of this Chunin Exams, but she didn't tell me and tried to use me as a shield!"

Needless to say, the figure was none other than Ryohei. Even though he had personally "killed" Uzuki Yuhi, he was still not satisfied.

"Damn it, you bitch, you made me lose an arm, you deserve to die, who else should die if not you!"

Ryohei gritted his teeth in hatred, wondering if his arm could ever be reattached.

It's all that damned bastard, Uzuki Yuhi,'s fault for ruining his promising future!

call out!call out!call out!

Just then, several shuriken shot through the air. Ryohei hurriedly dodged, but with one arm missing, he lost his balance and was still stabbed in the thigh by a shuriken.

"Hey, who is it? Get out here, Mr. Ryohei!"

Ryohei could hardly feel pain anymore; the excessive dopamine in his brain was stimulating his nerves, making him extremely agitated.

"It's you! How could you possibly escape from those two Mist Ninja?!"

Chiba's figure emerged from the woods. Ryohei was stunned in disbelief at first, and then burst into maniacal laughter.

"I know, you killed your companion too, that's how you escaped with your life, hahahaha!"

Ryohei was met with Chiba's cold voice.
