Naruto: Inheriting the Legacy of a Person Who Traveled Through Time

Chapter 44 One of the two main culprits of the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kabuto Yakushi

Unfortunately, he can't openly display his Sharingan yet, otherwise he really wants to have a good showdown with the Byakugan.

With the Byakugan's ability to see through things, Tetsuya would be completely exposed if he activated his Sharingan. Tetsuya wasn't ready to become the center of attention.

However, that day won't be too far away!

If my plan succeeds in the Chunin Exams, I can do whatever I want in Konoha from now on.

To reach the ultimate goal, only one final link remains to be completed.

Seeing Tetsuya standing still, stunned by his Gentle Fist attack, Neji instinctively assumed that Tetsuya couldn't keep up with his speed at all, and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

A loser is a loser, even awakening a bloodline limit can't change that.

Bang!

it's over!

A solid, gentle punch landed on Tetsuya's chest, specifically the Tanzhong acupoint. Tenten's cheers rang in his ears. As Neji's chakra surged from his palm into Tetsuya's body, he suddenly realized that the sensation was slightly off.

The figure before him suddenly vanished into white mist, causing Neji's pupils to shrink in disbelief.

Such a fast hand seal speed! I didn't even notice when Tetsuya finished the hand seals and used a shadow clone to replace my original body.

it's here!

Without turning around, the Byakugan's 360-degree field of vision immediately captured the enemy's position. There, without warning, Tetsuya emerged from under the floor, holding a kunai and attempting to launch a sneak attack from behind.

too naive!

Neji's arms suddenly sank, and any ninja familiar with the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist would immediately recognize it as the starting stance of the Gentle Fist Eight Trigrams Palm.

Once you fall into the Bagua force field of the Soft Fist · Bagua Sixty-Four Palms, you will be hit by continuous soft fist attacks that strike your acupoints, completely losing your ability to resist.

However, the Bagua pattern beneath Neji's feet had only just begun to rise when it abruptly stopped. Neji was horrified to discover that his limbs were now tightly bound by green vines, rendering him completely immobile.

Illusion?

Neji was completely baffled. He had been on guard the whole time and had even activated his Byakugan, so why did he still fall into Tetsuya's genjutsu?

Neji's Byakugan twitched wildly several times. As the owner of a bloodline limit of the eye technique, Neji naturally understood that this was the best way to resist and break the genjutsu.

The surrounding environment suddenly distorted, gradually devouring the vines wrapped around Neji, but Neji's face turned extremely gloomy, and he dared not make any move.

A kunai was already pressed against his throat, a vital spot, and Neji knew that the battle was over.

"I was careless this time. I didn't expect you to have set up an illusion on the shadow clone. Attacking the shadow clone will trigger the illusion..."

Under the Byakugan's vision, Neji realized he was still in the same stance as when he shattered the shadow clone with a single palm strike, and immediately understood why he had fallen into a trap.

"I definitely won't lose to you during the Chunin Exams."

Seeing Tetsuya calmly put away the kunai, as if he had just completed an extremely simple task, Neji spoke slowly and deliberately, expressing his determination.

"Let's wait and see."

Tetsuya remained calm and composed, showing no joy whatsoever at the unexpected rise from underdog to top student. He turned his head and focused his gaze on the battlefield on the other side.

"Did you know that powerful individuals can be divided into genius types and hard-working types? If your Sharingan represents a genius who inherited Uchiha abilities, then I'm the hard-working type who's single-mindedly focused on breaking through the limits of taijutsu!"

As expected, Sasuke, who had activated his "Sunny Day Assist" mode, was utterly defeated. Lee even had the leisure to dodge Sasuke's taijutsu attacks while recounting his past efforts, before suddenly kicking Sasuke in the chin with such speed that Sasuke had no chance to defend himself.

Strictly speaking, Sasuke shouldn't be afraid of taijutsu-type ninjas, given the Sharingan's ability to capture movement. However, Rock Lee completely outpaced Sasuke in terms of speed, leaving the latter in a contradictory state where his eyes could see the body but he couldn't keep up with the pace, making it perfectly reasonable for him to be utterly defeated.

"I will prove that with persistent effort, it is ultimately possible to surpass even genius!"

After crouching down, Lee leaped into the air and appeared behind Sasuke, who was in mid-air, like a shadow. The bandages wrapped around his arms came loose and gradually wrapped around Sasuke's limbs.

Konoha's Secret Body Technique: Shadow Dance Leaf.

"I won!"

When Lee's calm declaration reached his ears, Sasuke's crimson Sharingan trembled rapidly. However, his body was paralyzed and suspended in mid-air due to the skillful force of Lee's kick, making it impossible for him to effectively resist.

Oops!

Just as Sasuke realized something was wrong, a whooshing sound suddenly rang out, and two shuriken shot over in the blink of an eye, severing Lee's two fluttering bandages.

Not only that, the two shuriken collided in mid-air and changed their direction of attack, quickly passing by Xiao Li's ears, cutting off several strands of black hair that slowly drifted down.

What terrifying shuriken manipulation skills!

As a teammate of Tenten, the richest woman in Konoha, Lee naturally knew how difficult it was to manipulate the shuriken for a second attack. If the opponent had been aiming for his vital points, he probably wouldn't have had time to react.

"That's enough sparring. If we don't register now, we'll miss this Chunin Exam."

At Tetsuya's words, Lee hesitated for a moment, then rolled over and landed, stopping his attack. With a gentle pull, he changed the trajectory of Sasuke, whose buttocks were about to be smashed into eight pieces. After sliding a long distance on the floor, Sasuke finally regained his mobility.

"I look forward to your guidance during the Chunin Exams, Tetsuya-kun."

Lee walked up to Cheye, bowed slightly, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

A strong person who can easily defeat the genius Neji must be a worthy opponent to fight with all their might.

"I was careless just now. If we fought again, I definitely wouldn't lose!"

Sasuke's face darkened as he watched the members of Team 3 walk away, and he couldn't help but defend himself.

"He wasn't showing his full speed; he was still wearing at least four heavy iron rings."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke's pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but pound the wall next to him twice.

"Interesting, the Chunin Exams are getting more and more interesting..."

However, being a genius of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke quickly rallied and his face was full of fighting spirit again.

With a troubled Sasuke and a still optimistic Naruto after being beaten up, Tetsuya quickly found Kakashi on the third floor and completed the final application for the Chunin Exams.

As Sasuke pushed open the door to classroom 301, the noisy environment inside was revealed to Team 7.

"You lot, you'd better keep a little quieter. After all, you're fresh graduates from the Ninja Academy. Don't be so rude in front of your seniors!"

Just as Naruto and Sasuke were greeting Shikamaru and Ino, Kabuto Yakushi deliberately walked over and adopted a lecturing tone.

"Who are you?"

Ino, who was just about to get closer to Sasuke, suddenly looked displeased and retorted.

"I am Kabuto Yakushi, a veteran who has participated in the Chunin Exams seven times..."

Upon hearing Kabuto's self-introduction, even Shikamaru, who had been silent all along, was filled with surprise.

To everyone's surprise, Tetsuya suddenly unleashed chakra from his feet, and in a flash, he arrived in front of Kabuto Yakushi, his five fingers forming claws as he reached for Kabuto's neck.

Could it be that something went wrong?

Kabuto instinctively wanted to back away and dodge, but he keenly sensed that Tetsuya had no murderous intent and did not believe that the other party would kill someone in front of everyone. He actually managed to control his body's instinctive reaction and let Tetsuya's five fingers tightly grip his neck.

As Tetsuya felt the projection of Kabuto Yakushi gradually light up, especially when he saw the Sage Kabuto with horns on his forehead and eyeshadow around his eyes, a smile appeared on his face.

One of the two main culprits who will launch the Fourth Shinobi World War in the future, his life or death is entirely in Tetsuya's hands.
