Chapter 328 The Amazingly Powerful Thunder Flash (7k)
As the last battle of the second round, and also a battle between Kirigakure and Konoha ninjas, the battle between Kakashi and Zabuza attracted much attention.
If Zabuza wins, then the top four will be half Kirigakure ninjas and half Konoha ninjas. If Kakashi wins, then the top four will only have one Kirigakure ninja, Kisame Kisame, and the rest. All are Konoha ninjas.
Kirigakure naturally wants Zabuza to win, otherwise it will look bad. If Kisame loses in the semi-finals and the final is a civil war in Konoha, it will be even worse. They are both the top five ninjas. Village, they also want to save face.
Of course, in the eyes of those who are familiar with Kakashi and Zabuzaren, or in the eyes of some people with strong eyesight, this is a battle without suspense.
“How could he win? He lost to that guy a month ago.” In Kurosawa’s mind, Zabuza would come up to watch the battle with him in a few minutes at most.
Zabuza didn’t try to guess what the audience was thinking. He had never been the kind of person who catered to others’ expectations.
Looking at Kakashi’s calm and calm look, Zabuza’s thoughts couldn’t help but go back to a month ago.
Facing a powerful enemy like Hideyuki Akumi, Kakashi and his team truly did not abandon or give up, and everyone fought to their own limits.
But Kakashi didn’t even have the strength to run, so he still chose to step forward to help his teammates, and swung a sword that he still couldn’t understand.
Zabuza really doesn’t understand at all. He clearly looks like he has to exert all his strength to even walk. There is a feeling of weakness inside and outside, and it is such a weak Kakashi who kills Akumi Hideyuki with a single blow. Instant kill
Zabuza felt that he might never be able to understand Kakashi’s power, because he really couldn’t think of anyone for whom he would risk his sword.
“The competition between people starts before they are even born. If you were born in Kirigakure, you would probably be similar to me now.” Zabuza said.
He is still a little unwilling to admit defeat, but what he is dissatisfied with is not the strength, but the village.
Zabuza has been in Konoha for a month, and within this month he has fully felt the difference between Konoha and Kirigakure.
To graduate from Konoha’s ninja school, you don’t need to kill your classmates. The atmosphere among ninjas is not so cold and bloody.
When you grow up with your companions in such an environment, your relationship will naturally become better, and you will have the idea of protecting your companions.
Beside him, Beiruhu had some sympathy for Zabuza’s words, but he was not because of the Ninja Village, but because of the gap between people’s talents. This is also determined at birth, such as the Sharingan. It is basically impossible to have things if you were not born in Uchiha.
“There are no ifs in the world. It seems that the previous knife did not completely cut off the dissatisfaction in your heart.” Kakashi replied calmly, his expression did not change because of Zabuza’s words.
In Kakashi’s opinion, this assumption doesn’t make much sense, because he doesn’t even know what Kirigakure’s environment is.
Kakashi admits that the environment can affect people, but this is not absolute. Take Obito, for example. Although Obito was born in Uchiha, his personality is completely different from ordinary Uchiha in all aspects.
“If you think Kirigakure is not as good as Konoha, then try your best to change it instead of imagining that I will become Kirigakure.” Kakashi said.
Learning the history of the ninja world, Kakashi realized a truth. Where they were born is determined by God and cannot be changed, but they can choose what they do in this life.
For example, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, although they were born into rival families, eventually chose to join forces to create Konoha.
Senju Tobirama is a member of the Great Ninja Clan, but in order to strengthen the Ninja Village, he can weaken the Ninja Clan and allow more civilian ninjas to appear.
“That kind of thing can’t be done just by talking about it.” Zabuza sneered. Kakashi said it easily, but the blood mist was the policy decided by the Mizukage.
“Then do you think it’s easy to kill a Jonin?” Kakashi said calmly.
It is difficult to change, but if you don’t try, there will never be a possibility of success. If Kakashi lay down because of the pain and lack of physical strength, then he would not have entered the transparent world to kill Akumi Hideyuki. That’s the knife.
Zabuza was speechless. The one who was killed was his instructor. He naturally knew how exaggerated the difficulty was.
“The battle begins!” Bei Liuhu adjusted his inner emotions slightly and then shouted quickly.
“The Art of Kirigakure!”
In order to prevent being killed directly by Kakashi with extreme speed, Zabuza immediately retreated and formed a seal to create a thick fog on the field, and at the same time used the teleportation technique to quickly change positions.
But to Zabuza’s surprise, Kakashi made no move, causing him to switch positions and dodge a series of times, which turned into a battle of wits with the air.
“What does that guy want to do?” Zabuza frowned and guessed Kakashi’s tactics.
This was completely different from what he imagined. He imagined that the battle scene would be Kakashi rushing directly at top speed, but the reality was that Kakashi was walking slowly without even pulling out his sword.
In fact, Zabuza’s initial guess was not wrong. Before, Kakashi wanted to kill Zabuza in a flash.
But after a conversation, Kakashi gave up this idea. He wanted to completely convince Zabuza and use his newly developed Thunder Flash.
Kakashi operates his thunder breathing to the limit, greatly increasing the strength and speed of his body. At the same time, he gathers a large amount of chakra in his legs and right hand, ready to explode at any time.
Kakashi tried hard to enter that clear and transparent world. He made many attempts over the past month, but they all failed.
This time he failed as expected, but Kakashi keenly noticed that although it failed this time, it was different from before. He could vaguely feel something.
Kakashi felt a little relieved. After a month of hard training, he had made some progress. Sure enough, he still had to fight.
Unable to figure out what Kakashi was thinking, Zabuza created a water body and let the water body attack Kakashi. The main body waited for Kakashi to take action and reveal a flaw.
To intensify that feeling, Kakashi tried closing his eyes.
Shuishui rushed forward upon seeing this.
Whoosh!
Kakashi drew his sword at a very fast speed and slashed, and instantly the water body split into two and burst into water.
Cold sweat broke out on Zabuza’s forehead just as he was about to charge forward. He really couldn’t understand what Kakashi was doing. He closed his eyes so quickly.
Just when Zabuza was thinking about new tactics, Kakashi moved again, this time he was moving in the direction of Zabuza.
Kakashi converted all the gathered chakra into thunder attribute chakra, and a dazzling yellow flash enveloped Kakashi’s legs and right hand.
Yellow lightning was transmitted from Kakashi’s arm to the White Fang short blade in his hand. Under the influence of chakra, the short blade extended a section of the lightning blade and turned into a sword style.
“Thunder and flash!”
Zizzi! !
Boom!
At this moment, the lightning on Kakashi’s body became even more dazzling. Even the thick white mist could not cover its light. The audience could clearly see the yellow light exploding from the white mist, followed by the mighty thunder and lightning. Roar.
Zabuza didn’t know how Kakashi discovered him. The moment the lightning exploded from Kakashi, he wanted to dodge, but as soon as the idea came to his mind, before his body could take action, he His eyes were suddenly filled with yellow lightning.
Kakashi has arrived in front of him and wielded the lightning blade.
“So beautiful.” Looking at the dazzling lightning strike, this thought suddenly appeared in Zabuza’s mind.
Boom! !
With a loud noise, the white fog on the field quickly faded and then dissipated, and the audience finally saw the scene clearly.
Kakashi stood in front of Zabuza, with a sharp blade wrapped in lightning chakra in his hand, with an indifferent look on his face, as if he had done something very ordinary.
Zabuza faced Kakashi and held the hilt of the sword in his hand. Under him were dozens of broken pieces of iron, and there was a large pool of blood and scorched marks on his chest.
The most shocking thing for the audience was that there was a long, scorched black slash mark beside Zabuza. Some people estimated that it was at least six meters long.
The next moment, blood flowed out of Zabuza’s mouth uncontrollably and he fell to the ground.
“What kind of skills has Kakashi practiced? I remember he didn’t fight like this before?” Asuma’s eyes widened as he looked at the marks left by Kakashi’s sword.
He thought that in the past, Kakashi’s sword skills were good, but they were only good at physical skills, which was not the same as now.
Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his mustache and nodded. The Kakashi in front of him was even more dazzling than White Fang of the same age, and although the styles were somewhat similar, Kakashi had found a path that was more suitable for him.
Kakisame Kisame in the lounge looked solemn, and Kakashi felt a huge threat from him.
Kakigami Kisame calmed down and took a look at Metkai. It would be the semi-finals in a moment. He had to defeat Metkai first before he could meet Kakashi in the finals.
“As expected of a close friend, I feel this intense youth!” Metkai clenched his fists, tears of emotion flowed from his eyes, and his desire to fight Kakashi became even higher.
“Kakashi is really good at pretending!” Obito felt that Kakashi did it on purpose. He chose to use the strongest move when there were obviously more labor-saving moves, which was a pointless waste of energy and chakra.
It was even more uncomfortable to think that Nohara Rin might still look at Kakashi Obito like this with shining eyes in the audience, and vowed to give Kakashi a good beating in the semi-finals.
“Are you looking down on me? You actually held back your hand again.” Zabuza, who was lying on the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood and said.
Although he was seriously injured, Zabuza knew that he was only affected by Kakashi’s slash. Kakashi slightly deflected the direction of the slash and did not swing it directly at him.
It was precisely because Zabuza did not take the slash head-on that he understood Kakashi’s power more deeply. Only part of his power could break his new weapon into pieces and injure him at the same time.
If all this power were poured out on him, I’m afraid even Tsunade, known as the Medical Sage, wouldn’t be able to save him.
“I just think you will never be able to defeat me like this.” Kakashi replied as he sheathed the White Fang short blade.
“You haven’t understood what true strength is.”
Zabuza was silent. He looked at the blue sky. Now Kakashi was indeed qualified to say this, because Kakashi really used only part of his slashing power to beat him to the point where he could no longer fight. There is no way to take advantage of the opportunity to counterattack.
“One day, I will stand in front of you again and defeat you.” Zabuza suddenly said.
He is a person who refuses to admit defeat. Kakashi says he can’t do it but he insists on doing it. Whether it’s changing Kirigakure or finding true strength, he has to do it. The worst thing in life is death, because Kirigakure As for his mission, he had passed through the gate of death twice, and he had nothing to fear.
“If you can do it, go ahead.” Kakashi said calmly.
“Kakashi Hatake wins!”
Hairuhu quickly announced the end of the battle after seeing that Zabuza was only talking and not moving.
Soon a medical ninja rushed down and took away the injured Zabuza.
Lying on the stretcher, Zabuza was thinking a lot. He had suffered a lot during this trip to Konoha, but what he regretted most at the moment was the battle with Kakashi just now.
He was defeated without even making a move. He felt that Kakashi would not like this kind of battle, so he felt regretful.
The last game of the second round ended and the venue ushered in the intermission time.
Although players can rest while other players are fighting, the pace of ninja battles is too fast. It’s okay to have more people in the first round, but there are only four games in the second round, so they can’t rest for long.
“Kakashi, what kind of fighting wisdom do you have? It can be solved with less effort…” As soon as Kakashi entered the lounge, Obito started talking about Kakashi’s battle just now.
“It’s for revenge for what happened in the Forest of Death, isn’t it?” Kakashi interrupted.
Obito has nothing to say. There seems to be no problem in being ruthless if he has a personal grudge.
There were only four people in the lounge at the moment. Kakashi, Obito, and Metkai were resting and chatting, while Kisame was sitting in the corner with his eyes closed and waiting for the exam to start.
The audience ate snacks and discussed the strength of the remaining four players.
It can be said that none of the four candidates is weak so far. Every candidate’s performance is extremely strong. Kisame Ingaki can turn the battle field into a field of water, and Metkai’s expressive physical skills are exaggerated.
The Hokage Technology has not yet arrived. If there is an online live broadcast, there will be hundreds or even thousands more posts on the Internet after a short break.
“Kishaki Kisame vs. Metkai! Candidates please enter quickly.” Horiu shouted after the break.
Metkai walked into the battle arena first with a bright smile, and Kisame also opened his eyes and followed.
All the audience looked at the center of the venue seriously. This battle is very important for this joint chunin exam.
If Metkai wins, it means Konoha has won a great victory, and then the Konoha ninja civil war will follow in the finals.
If Inikaki Kisame wins, then even if Kirigakure loses in the final, his face will basically be saved. After all, they are all in the final together and there is no problem at the same level.
The audience in Konoha was cheering for Metkai, and the Kirigakure ninjas were also silently praying for Kisame in their hearts, hoping that Kisame would win the battle.
“Remember me, this time I’m in full strength and I won’t lose again.” Kisame smiled with sharp teeth like a shark.
Metkay looked at Kisame’s face and scratched his head. He vaguely seemed to hear the words Beiliu calling Mikigaki. Combined with similar conversations in his memory before, Metkay came up with the name of his opponent.
“Ganshihuomen, I will win this time too!” Metkai said with confidence.
Kissame looked at Metkai with a question mark on his face, why didn’t he know who Iniki Kamon was?
Kissame was finally convinced by Metkai. Even if he didn’t remember his name in the Forest of Death report, the referee called his name three times today, one of which was just now. This could have been a mistake.
“Are you doing this on purpose to anger me so that my boss will make a mistake?” Kisame thought he had figured out the reason why Metkai did this.
He did not expect that Metkai, who had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and well-developed limbs, would actually use the provoking method before the battle. This changed Metkai’s image in Kisame’s heart.
“The battle begins!” Bei Liuhu announced on time.
“Eight-door Dunjia: Open the door, open! Close the door, open! Open the living door!” Metkai opened three doors in an instant, and the chakra in his body increased sharply.
“The breath of the rock, all concentrated!” At the same time, Metkai changed his breathing and concentrated his breathing to greatly improve his physical ability.
Having fought with Kisame once, he knew the approximate strength of Kisame, so he went all out without testing.
“Water Escape·Exploding Water and Waves!”
Kissame, who knew that Metkai’s physical skills were powerful, did not dare to hesitate at all. As soon as Bei Liuhu finished speaking, he quickly retreated and formed a seal to spit out a large amount of water towards Metkai’s body.
Metkai jumped up to avoid the huge water flow, and then the entire venue turned into a large pond. Metkai could only fight on the water.
“Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!”
After using the explosive water wave, Kisame immediately formed a seal and used his offensive water escape to condense a thick water dragon and smash it towards Metkai.
“Konoha’s powerful whirlwind!”
Metkai concentrated his strength on his feet and kicked out a whirlwind leg that carried heavy leg power. With just one kick, the water dragon bombs were scattered, and the water splashed in all directions.
Metkay, who was only over 1.3 meters tall, was very small in front of the thick water dragon projectile, but due to such a huge size difference, Metkay kicked the water dragon into pieces.
At this moment, the incomparable power of the Breath of the Eight Door Dunjia and the Rock was fully demonstrated. Many ninjas watching the battle took a breath when they saw this scene. This was a head-to-head confrontation between physical skills and ninjutsu.
“Kay!” The old father, Matt Dai, watched as Metkai kicked the water hose to pieces and yelled Metkai’s name loudly. Metkai’s exercise of getting up early and coming home late was not in vain, it was just for this moment.
Shiranui Genma and Ebisu looked at each other and felt that it may have cost them a lot of luck to be divided into classes. It was so cool to have such a big brother in the team, and they felt safe when doing tasks.
Even though he had already fought Metkai once, Kisame’s eyelids twitched when he saw Metkai’s tyrannical taijutsu again.
Faced with Metkai in this state, even Kisame, who was born with strength far beyond ordinary people, did not want to engage in a taijutsu battle with him.
It’s okay to be injured a little, but once he enters Metkai’s offensive rhythm, he may not be able to use his ninjutsu and will lose.
After kicking the water dragon bomb, Metkai rushed straight towards Kisame. Because the speed was so fast, ordinary viewers could only see a green light moving forward.
“Water Release: Big Explosive Water Wave!” Kisame, who originally wanted to use up some of Metkai’s energy, immediately mobilized his whole body’s chakra to release his ultimate move.
Last time, Metkai defeated him with a huge water ball in the big water blast, so this time Kisame wanted to use up more of Metkai’s power before using this move to prevent him from making the same mistake again.
But Metkai’s condition was so frightening that Kisame had to release the big water blast in advance, otherwise the next battle would be very detrimental to him.
The fighting area is large for ordinary people, but it is very small for a physical expert like Metkai.
Kissame converted most of the chakra in his body into water-type chakra and turned it into water, and the amount of water several times more terrifying than before was sprayed out of Kisame’s mouth.
Metkai suddenly thought of the huge water ball in the Death Forest. He stopped running and quickly retreated.
He can’t breathe in the water, and being trapped in the water will make him very passive.
But this month was not in vain for Kisame. He also practiced hard for a month. Although it is not an exaggeration, he is still better than he was a month ago.
Kisame made use of the water flow from the initial blast of water, and soon the water ball of the blast was getting bigger and bigger, tending to cover the entire battle field.
Although there is only one word difference, the water blast and the big water blast are actually different.
The explosive water wave is similar to the water formation pillar, which is to create a large amount of water to create a favorable environment for water escape ninjas, and the large explosive water wave can create a huge solid version of the water prison technique.
Soon Metkai found that he had no way to retreat, because the range of Kisame’s big water blast was too large and could cover the entire battle field.
Maitkai took a deep breath. It was not difficult for him to hold his breath in the water for five minutes, but if he wanted to maintain the power of the breathing method, he had tried it, and it could only last for one minute at most, which meant that he had to be here. Defeat Kisame within one minute, otherwise he may not be the opponent of Kisame in the water without the blessing of breathing method.
Metkai raised his strength to its peak in one breath and then actively allowed the expanding water polo to include him.
Although the limitations of the venue were somewhat disadvantageous to him, there was no such thing as retreat in Metkay’s dictionary.
Kissame’s powerful water escape caused a burst of exclamations from the audience.
Many ordinary people in the audience thought this was very miraculous. Even though there was no container, it was possible to form a water-tight water balloon.
Kakashi stared closely at the battle site. He was also a practitioner of breathing techniques. He understood Metkai’s predicament at this time.
Seeing Metkai finally enter the water polo, Kisame showed a smile on his face. The sharp teeth coupled with his face and swimming figure in the water made him look like he was really a shark.
“Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!”
As Kisame continued to stimulate chakra, five sharks appeared in the water with their mouths wide open, swimming quickly and biting at Metkai.
This is the water escape ninjutsu that Kisame has developed over the past thirty days. It is more suitable for him than water dragon bullets.
Kissame also had the idea of advanced development, combined with some of the special characteristics of his body, but it was not developed because the time was too short.
Faced with the ferocious shark Metkai, he was not afraid at all. He burst out with all his strength and rushed towards Kisame. The powerful chakra forcefully caused the water flow at his feet to retreat briefly.
Bang!
The incoming water shark Metkai directly exploded with a punch, and the terrifying power set off waves in the water.
“It’s stronger than that time.” Kisame’s expression changed slightly.
It only took Metkai nine seconds to eliminate all five water sharks, and he continued to rush towards Kisame.
Kissame quickly consumed chakra again to create a water shark and rushed towards Metkai.
But this still cannot stop Metkai from moving forward. He is approaching Kisame step by step like an invincible **** of war.
“Forty seconds, forty-one seconds.” Metkai silently thought about the time he entered the water polo.
“Ten Shark Bullets!”
Kissame inspired all the chakra in his body to create ten water sharks in one go.
Even though Kisame has deep chakra, he feels like his body is being hollowed out when he uses Water Release continuously like this.
“Noon Leopard!”
When the silent count reached fifty seconds, the powerful eight-door armor chakra on Metkai completely exploded, strengthening Metkai’s whole body and bringing Metkai’s momentum to a new peak.
Shaving’s multiple bursts made this kick unrivaled in power. The impact of Metkai’s kick wiped out the three water sharks at the front.
The extremely violent water waves in the water ball were like the leopard-headed chakra arrogance on Metkai’s body, making a silent roar. When Metkai’s powerful kick came into contact with the sharks, the seven sharks instantly collapsed.
“Fifty-three, fifty-four.” As he thought silently in his mind, Metkai’s flying kicks were getting closer and closer to Kisame.
Kissame swam backward quickly while draining his last chakra, creating a water shark three times larger than an ordinary shark and biting Metkai.
Boom! !
The collision between the leopard head and the giant shark once again caused the giant water ball to fluctuate.
At this moment, the number in Metkai’s heart silently reached sixty.
Kissame could clearly feel that Metkai’s aura suddenly weakened, and the cheetah, who was about to bite the shark into pieces, showed its weakness.
Kissame showed joy on his face, feeling that it was time for him to counterattack.
“No way…” Shiranui Genma and Ebisu looked worried.
“The venue is too small, can’t it be built bigger? This would also be too advantageous for Ninjutsu like Kisaki Kisame.” Obito thought that Metkai suffered a big loss on the venue.
Kakashi’s expression remained unchanged. He would believe in Metkai until the result came out. They had agreed to fight in the final.
Before Kisame could be happy for even half a second, because this place was close to the edge of the water polo, Metkay banged his head out with all his strength and took another breath. Then Metkay immediately exploded the short-lasting power. He came out and defeated the big shark in one fell swoop and kicked Kisame away.
Without Kisame’s support, the giant water ball instantly lost its binding force. Kisame slammed into the wall at the edge of the field. Metkai, who landed smoothly, spat out the water he had accidentally inhaled.
Immediately afterwards, Metkai immediately confirmed Kisame’s condition and felt relieved when he found that Kisame had been seriously injured and had no strength to fight anymore.
“Metkay wins!” Beilihu quickly announced Metkay’s victory.
Maitkai smiled brightly at the people in the audience and gave himself a thumbs up.
Victory over Kisame meant entering the finals, and he was a little closer to his goal of being the strongest in taijutsu.
“My best friend, you are next.” Metkai looked towards the direction of the lounge.
I originally wanted to write a 10,000-word chapter and finish Obito’s chapter, but I was worried that it would be too late, so I posted 7k first. There will be another chapter later
