Avengers of the Whirlpool Family.

Chapter 112: The Finals Begins

Of course, this was only the cheers from the common people and the lower-level ninjas. Maki, Kakashi, Asuma, who were scattered around the venue, and Kabuto Yakushi, who was hiding in the shadows, all had their hearts tense.

Especially Maki, his eyes were fixed on Gaara. As the first initiator of Konoha's collapse plan and the most important fighting force of their Sand Village, there must be no problems with him.

"You must follow the plan, Gaara."

Maki muttered to himself.

He subconsciously raised his head and looked towards the area outside the distant Hidden Leaf Village. There, the most elite ninjas of their Hidden Leaf Village had gathered, waiting for the signal to launch the most violent attack directly on the weak side of the Hidden Leaf Village.

The senior ninjas of Konoha had received different orders before entering the venue. Even though Konoha was still unclear about the exact plans of the Sand Village and the Sound Village, the previous clues were enough for Sarutobi Hiruzen to order everyone to be on alert.

But unless it is absolutely necessary, Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally does not want to see the worst situation happen.

This is Konoha after all, and any losses are likely to double or even more. As the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen must hope that everything can go smoothly.

But today's result is destined to not satisfy Sarutobi Hiruzen, and there will be a big surprise waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The curtain has been slowly opening.

Off the field position.

"Yoshi, except for Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji who are staying in the first match, the others should go back to the rest stands first."

Genma Shiranui turned around and looked at Menma, Gaara and the other ten people in the back with a calm expression, and spoke in a calm tone.

The falling words.

Two people looking at each other.

The intense sparks that burst out can be clearly seen.

Just as Sasuke was very satisfied with his first opponent.

Neji was also very happy that his opponent in this battle was Sasuke.

Even though the Uchiha clan has been almost exterminated, this name still has great prestige in the ninja world.

Defeat such an opponent.

Neji would naturally feel his blood boiling.

The other eight people turned around and left.

"Come on, Sasuke, you have to beat that guy!"

"Sasuke-kun, come on."

Naruto and Sakura also cheered for their teammates.

Menma glanced at Sasuke and Neji with a slightly strange look, because if he had to say who among the Twelve Young Warriors of Konoha in the original work was most likely to become his companion, it would only be Sasuke and Neji.

The former has already been proven in the original work.

As for the latter.

All we can say is that the motivation and foundation exist, but whether it can be accomplished remains to be seen in the future. Moreover, Neji is a member of the branch family, and being a bird in a cage is an unavoidable problem.

"However, these are all issues that need to be considered later. Today, we must first perform this big show well."

Before walking into the corridor.

Menma also took a last look at Sarutobi Hiruzen on the high platform. He seemed to be starting to look forward to what was about to unfold.

Two separate people.

Eight people stepped forward.

"The first match, Uchiha Sasuke vs. Hyuga Neji, begins!"

Genma Shiranui also glanced at the platform, and after receiving the signal, he suddenly waved his right hand and shouted loudly.

Compare the signal to start the war.

"boom!"

In the lower side position.

Sasuke's Sharingan opened immediately, reflecting a scarlet color and bursting out chakra.

In the opposite position.

Neji smiled coldly.

"Blind eyes!"

The blue veins on his forehead popped up, and his eyes rolled back at the same time.

An aura far beyond that of an ordinary Genin spread out.

"Ooooh? Sharingan!"

"Is this the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?"

"After so many years, I can finally see this pair of eyes again." "Tsk tsk, Byakugan versus Sharingan, this first match is so exciting."

"It depends on whether the Byakugan is stronger or the Sharingan is better."

The audience in the stands also widened their eyes and looked excited when they saw these two pairs of completely different eyes.

The screams that came one after another added a bit of excitement to this confrontation.

"Haha, Kakashi, this first match is a showdown between our two teams. This is truly youth!"

Might Guy, who was standing side by side with Kakashi, also gave a thumbs up and said with a laugh.

"Uh-huh."

Kakashi responded lazily with a few words, and his only exposed eye casually glanced at Maki who was farther away, with a solemn look emerging in the depths of his pupils.

The showdown begins.

There is no need and no possibility of any verbal communication.

"boom!"

Sasuke in the bottom position.

Almost at the moment when Neci took his stance, he took the initiative and rushed towards him.

The speed of flash.

When it appeared in front of Neji.

The pupils of this Hyuga clan genius also suddenly shrank.

The speed was clearly beyond expectations.

"Gossip!"

All Neji could do was to immediately put on his strongest stance.

These two people collided violently.

"Boom."

A huge cloud of dust also rose above the ground.

"Wow? That's fast. When did Sasuke become so fast?"

In the stands, the faces of several Genin who were watching the match changed slightly, especially Xiao Li, whose expression became very serious.

Naruto even started shouting at this moment.

"The activation of lightning chakra? That can be considered a cheating method."

Menma was the only one who didn't feel any surprise.

In the original work, Sasuke learned this move and Kakashi's exclusive ninjutsu, Chidori, in just one month.

This allowed the second young master of the Uchiha family to experience a leap in growth, but it was a pity that he encountered Gaara, the One-Tailed Jinchuriki in the original work. Although Chidori could break through Gaara's sand barrier at this stage and even injured Gaara, in the subsequent confrontation, after Gaara used the power of Shukaku, Sasuke was no match for him.

But now, facing Hyuga Neji.

Sasuke clearly had the upper hand.

"Peng!"

The physical skills copied from Kakashi using the Sharingan that had just been opened, and the speed that soared to the extreme in a short period of time.

Ningji was completely in a disadvantageous situation.

He can almost only passively defend against Sasuke's powerful attacks.

It's hard to fight back.

Even the gossip posture is difficult to display directly.

It was obvious that the situation could not be sustained any longer, so Neji gritted his teeth and confronted Sasuke with a punch, using the force to create some distance between them.

That desire to reorganize.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

But Sasuke saw through it easily.

He quickly formed seals with both hands.

A huge ball of fire.

"Oh oh oh?"

"Wow!?"

Amid the exclamations of many ordinary spectators in the stands, he pounced fiercely towards where Neji was.
