After transforming, I became the wife of all Naruto fans.

"Tsk!"

Behind the big tree, Mizuki emerged, his face grim and his head covered in blood, clutching a large shuriken.

Right in the center of his forehead guard, there was a clear, deep cut that revealed the bone!

At the same time, with a bang, just as Qianyu had said, the water and wood in the bushes exploded and turned into a piece of substitute wood.

"Kid, how did you find out?" Mizuki asked with a grim expression. "I thought this time, the stand-in should be flawless!"

His attention was focused on Iruka and Naruto, which led to him being distracted by Chiba's kunai and taking a solid hit. It was definitely his fault.

Whether it was his quick thinking in using his headband to catch the sword and avoid serious injury, or his use of a substitute in mid-air to lure Chiba into pursuit, Mizuki did the best he could.

He couldn't accept that Qianyu could see through this.

As a teacher, if he can't even compare to his students, does that mean he's ruined himself after teaching for so many years?

Of course, Shuimu didn't ruin himself through teaching.

Having taught for so many years, explaining the Three Body Techniques over and over again, Qian Yu believes that Mizuki's Stand is at least an expert-level skill.

Expert level is already quite good for a technique like the Three Bodies Technique, which is easy to learn but difficult to master.

But who can blame Qianyu for being able to add points?

Mizuki's little schemes were as clear as lines on the palm of Chiba's hand, given that the Three Body Technique had reached its peak in the ninja world.

"It's simple, you were too stiff!" Qianyu said dismissively, "You think you can extort money from me with this fake fall?"

"I see!" Mizuki understood.

Ninja schools teach a skill called "falling technique," which involves protecting yourself in the least injury-prone position when you fall.

From this perspective, it does seem a bit fake that his stunt double landed with the back of his head straight down.

That's true, but Qianyu's slash was aimed at his head. Although he blocked it with his headband, Qianyu's strength was insufficient, the slash was not good, and his adult skull was hard.

Therefore, due to a combination of factors, Shuimu did not die on the spot, but there was a possibility that he suffered a concussion from the single blow and was unable to react.

The fact that Qianyu could restrain himself from pursuing under such circumstances shows that he was very calm and had a clear understanding of himself, knowing what kind of effect a single strike would have.

"Tsk!" Mizuki clicked his tongue again, his contempt for Chiyu as a student quietly disappearing.

However, even now, Mizuki is still determined to win, though he anticipates a tough battle.

He took a large shuriken with his right hand and pointed it at Chiba, while his left hand reached behind him and grabbed another large shuriken, assuming a clear fighting stance:

"Phoenix Temple Chiba, I admit I underestimated you. To have mastered swordsmanship to this level at such a young age, you are truly a genius."

"So I'm giving you a chance. Get out of my way, or I'll kill you!"

As he spoke, blood flowed from the wound on Mizuki's forehead, dripping down his cheeks. Combined with his fierce expression and the darkness of the night, he looked both ferocious and terrifying.

Clearly, Shuimu is going all out.

Qianyu did not answer, but silently gripped the long sword in her hand, expressing her attitude through her actions.

"Heh!" Mizuki chuckled coldly, his right hand spinning the large shuriken at high speed!

Then, Mizuki lifted his left leg, took a step forward, and rotated his body, gathering all his strength around his right leg. His whole body was like a fully drawn bow, and the huge shuriken carried the sound of wind and thunder, just like a cannonball being fired!

Faced with such a powerful attack, Qianyu immediately retreated, preparing to dodge.

However, just as Mizuki was halfway through his shuriken, an unexpected incident occurred.

The giant shuriken that was heading straight for Chiyu actually turned in mid-air and flew towards Naruto on the other side, as if it were not a giant shuriken the size of an adult's torso, but a normal shuriken that the Uchiha could use in all sorts of ways!

Clearly, this was a brilliant feint!

Oh no!

Knowing that she had been deceived, Naruto and Iruka would only be in a worse situation. Chiba felt a gust of wind surging around her, and her chakra rushed from her dantian to her feet, as she tried to teleport to their aid.

Since Mizuki designed it this way, there must have been a plan for Chiyu's existence as well.

After Chiyu changed direction, Mizuki simultaneously threw out a large shuriken from his left hand, cutting off Chiyu's rescue trajectory!

Watching Qianyu struggle forward, her pretty face constantly changing color, Mizuki laughed cruelly:

"It's no use, Chiyu. Do you think I earned my Chunin rank through such means? My secret technique, Double Swallow, has even managed to kill a Special Jonin!"

"So, Iruka is doomed. I told you, even the Hokage couldn't save him!"

As for why the giant shuriken was aimed at Naruto, but Iruka was the one who was going to die.

That's because the essence of this move lies in attacking the enemy's defenses!

Mizuki's initial target was Iruka!

It must be said that although Shui Mu's move was insidious, it was indeed effective.

Because Iruka didn't even think twice before spreading his arms and blocking Naruto's way!

But this attack was not the casual toss that Mizuki used to toy with his prey in the original work.

If Iruka were to take the hit with his body, he would really die!

"hateful!"

Qianyu gritted her teeth inwardly.

Mizuki, who was easily defeated by Naruto in the story, actually had this trick up her sleeve. She really didn't expect it. It just goes to show that you shouldn't underestimate anyone.

But if Mizuki thinks that this will exhaust her tricks, he is underestimating her!

A skilled Wind-Controlling Swordsmanship master focuses on shape manipulation, allowing them to unleash gusts of wind, which...

Chiyu's gaze sharpened, and the chakra within his body surged forth like a floodgate being opened, while an increasingly violent wind began to spread from his body to his hands.

As she charged forward, Qianyu unleashed a sword strike!

A pure white wind barrier, formed by a gust of wind, slowly pushed forward, blocking the second giant shuriken!

"Wind Control Sword Technique: Wind Wall!"

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

The rapidly spinning shuriken rubbed against the wall of wind, producing a turbulent sound.

In the ninja world, there are water formation walls and earth formation walls, but never wind formation walls, naturally because the unrestrained wind is simply not suitable for defense.

But today, it happened!

The solid wind wall blocked the advance of Mizuki's Great Shuriken!

"impossible!"

Seeing this, Mizuki's eyes widened suddenly, completely ignoring the stinging sensation of blood flowing into his eyes from his forehead.

The same goes for the third generation, who was monitoring the situation with a crystal ball from beginning to end!

The live stream's changing camera angles and close-up shots vividly showcased the audience's shock.

With the help of the live stream camera, Qianyu's popularity is soaring.

This time, however, Qianyu had no time for joy or excitement.

Because the interference from SMTH is always effective... it's getting too late!

Mizuki's giant shuriken was at most an arm's length away from Iruka!

And the distance between her and Iruka was—five steps!
