Chapter 314 The Three Ninja Swordsmen Questioning Their Lives
Upon hearing this incredibly cheesy line, Sarutobi Asuma, Genma Shiranui, and Ebisu all fell silent and instinctively covered their faces.
"Are we really going to use that move? We were hoping to hide it until the next round." Genma was really hesitant. "In front of everyone? And wearing this outfit?"
"I'll give it my all! If I don't get through this round, there's no point in talking about the next one!" Asuma gritted his teeth.
"Ebisu, make your move!"
"Okay!" Ebisu took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
next second.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A dull thud was heard.
Asuma, Genma, and Ebisu suddenly untied the wrist guards and leg wraps that were tied to their wrists and ankles.
Those seemingly unremarkable pieces of equipment landed on the ground and surprisingly created several deep mud pits!
"What is that weight?!"
The Sand Village genin, who was preparing to release a wind-style cover nearby, nearly popped his eyes out. He had just witnessed these three guys carrying such heavy things and running faster than rabbits!
Asuma straightened up, and his steps, which had been somewhat heavy due to the weight, instantly became incredibly light.
He imitated Kai, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"Eight Gates Formation - Open the Gate, Open!"
"Open the door!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three streams of pure chakra energy erupted simultaneously from the three individuals.
Although there wasn't the exaggerated scene of Kai opening the third door with a burst of green light, the three of them underwent a qualitative change in their previously unremarkable aura at this moment.
"This works?!"
The Cloud Village genin was stunned. He had always thought that the guy with the thick eyebrows was an exception, but he never expected that these three seemingly normal Konoha genin would also know such life-threatening taijutsu!
"Go for it! This is the resonance of youth!"
Kai let out an excited roar, and the pressure suddenly lessened.
"Konoha's Great Barrage!"
Asuma, Genma, and Ebisu transformed into three green afterimages and instantly entered the battlefield.
With the enhancement of the Shūmon, Asuma's chakra blade unleashed a net of blades so thick it was almost invisible to the naked eye, managing to forcefully suppress the mechanical arm of the Silver Moon as it attempted to retaliate.
Genma used his extreme speed after unloading the weights to frantically weave through the blind spots of Silver Moon's vision. Although the kunai in his hand could not pierce the armor, he specifically targeted the gaps in the joints.
As for Ebisu, he even abandoned ninjutsu and directly used taijutsu to deal with Ginjutsu. Although his movements were not as fierce as Guy's, they were extremely tricky.
These four lush green figures tightly bound Silver Moon, preventing her from focusing on dealing with others.
……
Konoha Dome, somewhere in the stands.
"Achoo!"
Might Day, who was sitting in the audience, suddenly sneezed loudly.
But he didn't care at all. Instead, he waved his hands excitedly and cheered wildly at the four green figures on the big screen.
"Great! Well done! This is the power of youth!"
"Water the flowers of victory with your sweat!"
Matt Day's deafening voice seemed out of place in this relatively quiet area.
And in another row of seats less than ten meters away from him.
Three people dressed in wide cloaks and straw hats, trying to hide themselves completely in the shadows, sat there stiffly.
The remnants of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who came to Konoha with the Fourth Mizukage: Juzo Biwa, Hozuki Suigetsu, and Raiga Kurosuki.
When the familiar green bodysuit and the Eight Gates stance appeared on the screen.
These three ninjas, who were ruthless killers and incredibly powerful, all trembled uncontrollably at the same time.
"It's...it's that technique..."
The chubby face of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon, which was originally covered with thick, fleshy muscles, was now as pale as paper, and cold sweat poured down his forehead in a flash.
He remembered the man who descended like a red demon in the mist at the border of the Land of Fire.
That terrifying being who shattered Kusanagi with a single kick and blasted Kushimaru with a single punch.
"Shut up! Don't mention that technique!"
Pipa Juzo gritted his teeth, pressing hard on the hilt of the guillotine beside him, which was trembling slightly, his face extremely grim.
He had thought that few people in Konoha knew this kind of life-or-death technique, but four people had appeared today, three of whom were children who had escaped from their clutches.
Raiga Kurosuki swallowed hard, his voice trembling: "If there had been someone else who knew this technique back then... would we still be alive?"
Just as these three members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were engulfed in terrifying memories and breaking out in a cold sweat...
"Hahaha! See that? That's my son! That's my disciple!"
Might Guy excitedly pointed at the screen, slammed his cane on the ground, and shouted triumphantly, "Burn! Let the entire ninja world see our might!"
"..."
Juzo Biwa, Hoshizan Hozuki, and Raiga Kurosuki all turned around at the same time, looking at the loudly shouting man as if he were a ghost.
Those signature thick eyebrows, that familiar watermelon head hairstyle, and that green bodysuit that gave you nightmares.
"It's...it's him?!"
The three fierce-looking elite warriors from the Mist Village, at this moment, uniformly stretched out their hands and covered their faces tightly, wishing they could bury their heads in their crotches.
"How embarrassing...so embarrassing..." Suigetsu Hobutsu muttered under his breath.
"We, the mighty Seven Ninja Swordsmen, were actually crippled by this... this seemingly mentally unstable idiot?!"
"Stop talking, I want to go back to the village." Pipa Juzo covered his face, looking utterly hopeless.
"Now I finally understand why the Mizukage didn't let us bring swords into the arena." Raiga Kurosuki closed his eyes in pain. "If others recognize that we were driven away by people like this... how are we supposed to survive in the ninja world?"
……
right.
Class 7 then faced off against Cang Yue, who was wielding a lightsaber.
"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
Obito's Sharingan locked onto Sogetsu's movement, and a huge fire dragon roared as it charged toward the puppet.
With an extremely elegant sidestep, Cang Yue casually swung her lightsaber, cleaving the fire dragon in two.
However, just as the flames faded...
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bite!"
Accompanied by a clear yet powerful shout.
Rin Nohara's hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals. With the amplification of the Three-Tails' chakra, this B-rank water-style ninjutsu, which originally required a huge amount of chakra, was formed in an instant.
A deep blue water dragon, twice the size of an ordinary water dragon and with extremely compressed water flow, roared out, opened its blood-red maw, and fiercely bit Cang Yue's waist from the side.
"What?!"
Inside the VIP box, the Third Hokage and all the other Kage were captivated by this scene.
A medical genin can unleash such a powerful water-style technique in an instant?!
Cang Yue, caught in the water dragon's bite, paused, attempting to cut the water flow with her lightsaber. However, the water jutsu, enhanced by the Three-Tails' chakra, was incredibly dense, and the lightsaber could only make a shallow cut on it.
"Now! Red!" Obito shouted.
"Explosive Rune Array - Explode!"
Kurenai Yuhi forms hand seals.
It turns out that Obito's Fire Release and Rin's Water Release were just to force Sogetsu to move. The real killing move was the explosive tag trap that Kurenai set up under Sogetsu's feet during the chaos.
"Boom—!!!"
A violent explosion engulfed the Azure Moon.
Before the dust had even settled, a petite figure shot in like an arrow.
It's Nohara Rin!
Unlike other medical ninjas who hid in the back, she used the physical enhancement brought by the Three-Tails' chakra and the taijutsu techniques personally taught by Tsunade to instantly close the distance.
Lin leaped high into the air, her right leg slashing down like a battle axe.
Although it doesn't possess the monstrous strength of Tsunade, the power of this kick, amplified by the power of the tailed beast, is still considerable.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, Cang Yue's head, which was charred black from the explosion, took the brunt of the blow, and his massive body was forced to kneel on one knee, causing the ground to crack instantly.
……
VIP seating.
The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, looked at the brown-haired girl on the screen who was unleashing astonishing water-style taijutsu, a hint of seriousness flashing in his purple eyes.
"That feeling of chakra... it can't be wrong."
He turned to look at the Third Hokage, his tone slightly probing: "Hokage-sama, it seems that Konoha's medical ninja training has a rather 'unique' direction."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag on his pipe, exhaling thick white smoke. A satisfied and proud smile appeared on his wrinkled old face as he subtly deflected Yagura's probing.
"You flatter me, Lord Mizukage. On the battlefield, only by protecting yourself can you protect your comrades. The children of Konoha are simply a little bit more driven to survive than others."
Onoki and Ai watched the group of young people on the screen, working together seamlessly and risking their lives, and fell silent. These kids were all good kids, it was just a pity they were from Konoha.
On the screen, the battle has reached a fever pitch.
