My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 69: Frustrated Again
in the hotel.

[There’s a fight upstairs——]

After hearing the unusual noise, Nara Yano held the kunai but did not take any action. Then he saw Maki not far away blocking the corridor leading to the stairs.

[A test for Link? ]

This is really an action that does not conceal the intention at all. They have the Chunin Exam as a platform, but they still use such a trick in the mission...

He looked at Maki. Last time in River Country, they almost had a fight. If the other party had not been afraid of Link's technique, he could have killed them all in River Country.

Don't think that there is no killing between allies. After all, ninja is a profession that walks in darkness.

The Chunin Exams are all participated by allies, and they don't care if they die. The missions are different, and when they meet each other, it is impossible to trust anyone except companions from the same village.

[However, this shows that the other party is a very cautious traditional ninja.]

Nara Yanshui thought quickly in his head.

Traditional ninjas focus on using intelligence to kill with one blow and never prolong the battle. Once they actually start fighting, they will do their best to fight for the opportunity to end the battle, even if it costs a little.

"Crack!"

The sound of breaking glass was heard.

[Did Kasumi fight with that female ninja?] Nara Yui was a little worried. He didn't know much about the growth of his three subordinates during this period of time. Judging from the normal growth rate of only two months, they should be defeated soon.

Since two of the three subordinates are taking action, Iris downstairs will probably not be an exception.

By then, no matter how unexpected Link is, he will still be under great pressure facing the three people without being able to use large-scale secret techniques.

Unfortunately, king against king, general against general, he couldn't move even a step away at this moment.
-
"sand!"

Shadow's kick hit its target and sank directly into a ball of sand.

[Sand Clone]

"Crack~" The sand that the boy with the gourd on his back turned into quickly clenched, and the shadow made a cracking sound, and most of the body was shattered -

The strength of the shadow also depends on the main body. It can be seen that Link's body at this time is still unable to withstand the damage of this ninjutsu.

The shattered shadow fell to the ground and became an incomplete two-dimensional object, then turned into an abstract black line on the ground and quickly returned to the feet of the original body.

In mid-air, the young man with a gourd on his back, standing on the sand, had already stretched out his hand and pointed it at Link.

"sand!"

The scattered sand on the ground quickly gathered together and tried to wrap up the target.

However, the next second, the shadow of the boy carrying the gourd on his back, which was stretched to the ground by the moonlight, shrank back, and he stood up and kicked towards the original body.

Because half of his physical strength was taken away the moment the shadow took shape, he showed a surprised expression and was kicked directly onto the sand and fell out of the building.

"sand!"

The sand that gathered around Link trembled and scattered all over the ground.

The feeling of having a large amount of physical strength drained away all at once was extremely uncomfortable. With Gaara's fragile mentality that went berserk after seeing blood, and being attacked by his own shadow without warning, it was impossible for him to continue to maintain the technique.

Of course, he also had a plan B. If the Shadow Clone Technique could not interrupt the capture of the sand, he could also choose to try to kick the sand and then leave instantly, or throw his head out and reassemble his body.

Now his physical fitness is no longer what it used to be, and he can play a lot of cards.

In his opinion, a ninjutsu-type opponent like Gaara should be the easiest guy to deal with.

The reason for choosing the Shadow Clone Technique is mainly due to intelligence considerations. The opponent already knows that he can manipulate shadows. Further exposing the ability to manipulate the opponent's shadow is better than exposing other techniques.

"Swallow" Link swallowed a soldier pill. The loss of half of his physical strength was still bearable for him. After his body became stronger, his physical strength recovered faster. As long as he replenished it in time, throwing a shadow clone before the battle would not affect the battle.

The boy carrying the gourd downstairs was still struggling with his own shadow and had not come up yet.

The opponent's shadow is often very familiar with the real body, so it is difficult for anyone who does not have the kind of close combat quick cutting and other lethal means to quickly deal with the shadow.

It is rare to find someone as skilled in medical ninjutsu as Kabuto Yakushi. Most people lack the means to cut off their opponent's limbs with one blow, and need to use ninja tools such as kunai and shuriken.

Especially the shadow formed by the Jinchūriki whose body has extremely large amount of chakra. The shadow with sufficient physical support can repeatedly repair the damage caused by blunt attacks, which is extremely difficult to deal with.

"clatter!"

Looking a little embarrassed, Kasumi jumped onto the rooftop, and on the other side, Temari also jumped up with a fan in her hand.

"Sha!" The gourd-carrying boy Sha, whose cheeks and neck were covered with cracks, instantly returned to the rooftop. His face had a ferocious expression and he was making seals with his hands.

"Shh!"

Maki appeared behind him, holding down his men, and said in a deep voice, "Gaara."

No matter what, in this contest, large-scale ninjutsu cannot be used, because there is a mission client downstairs.

It's fine for a few Genin and Chunin to have a little friction, as long as no one is killed, it can be treated as if it never happened. However, if they ignore their clients and launch large-scale ninjutsu attacks on each other in the hotel, it will seriously damage the reputation of the Sand Village.

The Sand Village was too weak to afford the cost of openly killing the wealthy businessman from the Fire Country whom they had invited on their own territory.

Gaara's chest heaved a few times, and he stared at Link intently, and his hand that was forming a seal fell down.

He is a neurotic Jinchūriki, not a real lunatic. He has been trained as a ninja for so many years, and even if he is disobedient occasionally, he can still control himself as long as he is not hurt.

"Shh!"

Nara Yushiro came carrying the unconscious Iris, glanced at his safe and sound subordinates, and just looked at Maki silently.

It is time for the other side to make a decision whether to fight or make peace.

We can all imagine what the painted man who never shows up is doing with his butt. He won't have any chance to fight back against the Jonin.

Ultimately, it was the competition upstairs that affected the balance.

If the jonin from the Sand Village acts first, they will definitely be at a disadvantage, and the contest between the four genin will be dispensable.

"..."

Maki stared at the spotless Link very seriously for a long time, and remembered deeply this Konoha Village Chunin who had defeated him twice, and then decisively evacuated the rooftop with his two subordinates.

If I don't leave, are we really going to have a fight?

As the opponent left, the five blue-white chakra flames of [gold, wood, water, fire, and earth] that appeared on the five fingers of Link's lowered palm went out.

With a calm expression, he took the iris that Nara Yuito had thrown to him before he left, and asked Xia, "Are you okay?"

Xia shook her head and said worriedly: "Iris, he..."

Link sensed it and found that his chakra was stable and his vital signs were normal. Apart from being unconscious, there was nothing abnormal. He shook his head to indicate that everything was fine.

"Bang!" A head collapsed.

"Ouch!" Iris woke up in pain.

Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
