Naruto: Nawaki was already dead, how could you bring him back to life?

Swish!

Seeing this, Chiba decisively abandoned his sword and retreated to avoid being attacked from both sides by Tessai and Kurotsuchi.

Thus ended the first round of clashes between the two sides. Chiba not only failed to gain any advantage, but was also subtly suppressed by the two.

"These two guys are tough, and they're fast too!" Chiba thought to himself as he moved his numb arms.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Apart from idiots like Ryohei, most of the people who dared to participate in this assessment were quite capable.

These two Iwa ninjas are highly skilled in both ninjutsu and taijutsu, possessing at least the strength of "Special Jonin." No wonder they dared to hunt him and Kosuke; they are truly formidable opponents.

pat.

Tessai casually tossed his katana to the ground, looked at the silent Chiba, and sneered.

"Kid from Konoha, did you skip a meal? How come you can't even cut someone down? Your arms are as limp as noodles?"

"Ah."

Chiba sneered and retorted, "Are you two wasting your chakra like this because you think you've got me cornered? Aren't you afraid of getting strung up on a skewer later?"

"Hahahahaha!"

The two Iwa ninja exchanged a glance and burst into laughter: "Who? You think you can beat a brat like you who hasn't even grown his hair yet?"

"Softie, is your bottom as soft as your top? You can't get hard, can you?"

"Exactly! My eighty-year-old grandma is stronger than you, you softie!"

While spewing trash talk, Kurotsuchi and Tessai quietly approached Chiba, intending to take his head in one fell swoop.

At such close range, using ninjutsu is both energy-consuming and prone to accidentally injuring teammates. In a two-on-one situation, taijutsu is the best option.

"Ha, you two bastards, do you really think you've got me cornered?"

Chiba sneered. Even though he knew the other party was deliberately trying to provoke him, he still felt a surge of anger.

Damn it, what man could stand this kind of mockery?!

Chiba decided to reveal his trump card and kill these two bastards in front of him, just in time to bring glory to the village, since he was only missing one scroll from Iwagakure.

"You call me weak? Then I'll show you what a real man is!"

Chiba crossed his arms in front of him, and the chakra within his body surged like a great river, instantly breaking through the first barrier of his body.

"Eight Gates Formation - Open the Gate, Open!"

Chapter 47 Counterattack, the Strange Phenomenon Targeting Chiba

Zizzi~

As the "door" opened, faint white smoke rose from Chiba's body; it was the sweat evaporating from his body.

"Earth Release·Rock Fist Technique!"

The moment Chiba opened the door, Kurotsuchi had already rushed to his side, raising his rock-encased fist to try and kill Chiba, but unfortunately, he was too late.

After the limitations of the brain were removed, Chiba was able to unleash 100% of his body's potential, with both his strength and speed greatly improved.

"Strike!"

After dodging Kurotsuchi's rock fist, Chiba twisted his waist and threw a punch at Tessai who was attacking from behind.

Clang!

Chiba's fist collided with Tessai's hardened body, producing a metallic clang, and Tessai's expression immediately changed.

"That force...!!!"

It is no exaggeration to say that, apart from the son of the Tsuchikage, Tessai has never encountered anyone who could stand up to him.

But now the force coming from this kid's fist is no less than that of Master Huangtu, and may even be greater.

Tie Zhai felt his blood and qi surging within him, and his body uncontrollably retreated several steps.

Swish!

Chiba's body moved like a ghost, clinging tightly to the side of the unbalanced Tessai, causing Kurotsuchi, who was frantically turning back to attack, to jump up and down.

"Damn it, Tiezhai, get out of the way!" Hongtu cursed under his breath.

However, Tessai couldn't pay any attention to Kyoudo at the moment, because Chiba's fist was coming again, this time aimed straight at his face.

Clang!

Tessai raised his arms to block Chiba's punch. Although Chiba's strength was great, it was not enough to break through his "hardening".

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Chiba's fist suddenly turned white, and several sheets of white paper flew out of his hand as if peeling off skin, instantly shooting towards Tessai's eyes.

puff.

Tessai never expected Chiba to pull such a move. At such close range, there was no time to dodge. The paper, as sharp as a blade, sliced ​​across his eyes, tearing off a chunk of flesh.

"Ugh, my eyes...!"

Tessai instinctively covered his eyes. In pain, he could no longer maintain the stability of his chakra, and the "hardening" naturally collapsed.

As Chiba used the Shiki no Mai (Paper Dance), her other hand transformed into a scalpel, which was now viciously stabbing towards Tessai's throat.

"Just because Chang Wei doesn't show his power doesn't mean I'm a saint!"

"Do not!!!"

Hongtu roared angrily, his eyes blazing with fury, but all of this happened in the blink of an eye, and he was completely unable to save Tessai from Chiba's grasp.

No, it should be said that he never expected that Chiba, who had just been suppressed by them, could kill Tessai in a single, brief exchange.

"Tetsuzai! Tessai!!"

When Hongtu arrived at Tiezhai's side, there was already a bloody hole in Tiezhai's neck, with blood gushing out. He was clearly not going to survive.

"Um, your friend is beyond saving. I'm a medical ninja, you have to trust me."

Seeing Kurotsuchi embracing Tessai's body with a face full of grief, Chiba kindly offered a reminder.

As he spoke, Chiba had already deactivated the Eight Gates Formation. After all, he was in an overloaded state, and maintaining it indefinitely would have taken a toll on him.

Now that one of the enemy's men has died, the roles of offense and defense have reversed, and the battle is now under his control.

"This is the effect I wanted."

Chiba was very satisfied with his smooth and skillful maneuver just now.

Just as he envisioned, in a situation where the forces are evenly matched, the side with the ability to suddenly unleash their power can often achieve a surprising victory.

If he kills both of them, he can use this smooth little combo again next time.

"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"

While Kurotsuchi was grieving, Chiba secretly formed hand seals, and the ground beneath Kurotsuchi and Tessai's feet instantly turned into a muddy swamp, threatening to completely engulf the two.

Earth Release: Solid Rock!

With bloodshot eyes, Hongtu slapped the mud. In the next instant, the soft swamp was covered by hard rocks, and Hongtu leaped up, rushing straight towards Chiba.

"Earth Release·Rock Fist Technique!"

Enraged, Kurotsuchi disregarded the consumption of chakra, simultaneously attaching both fists to the rocks and swung them swiftly and fiercely toward Chiba's cheek.

"Shadow Dance Steps!"

Since Hongtu was eager to attack, Chiba was not in a hurry. He moved nimbly like a snake, letting Hongtu's punches miss their mark and wearing down his opponent's energy.

"You little brat, didn't you want to fight me head-on?"

Seeing that Chiba wasn't taking the hits, Kurotsuchi yelled angrily, "Why are you dodging, you coward? Come and attack me! Does your woman know you're a virgin?!"

Chiba wasn't angry because he was really tall, and besides, he didn't have a woman.

So, while dodging, he said with a grin, "Hey, you seem so angry. Is that Tiezhai your husband?"

"Who usually does the upstairs position, or do you take turns?"

Anyone can insult people. Chiba was an artist in his past life, always playing the piano in Zaun (a Chinese online forum).

"Baka yarou! Give me your shine aaaaaah!"

Enraged by Chiba, Hongtu broke through Chiba's defenses and increased the speed of his punches by three points, but he still couldn't even touch the hem of Chiba's clothes.

The outcome of this battle was already decided the moment the clay court lost its composure.

Chiba dodged Kurotsuchi's fist with a quick movement, and taking advantage of Kurotsuchi's wide-open attack before he could generate new power, he slashed Kurotsuchi's thigh with a scalpel.

The reason he didn't use the poking technique was because he was afraid that the red clay would trap his arm and cause him to punch the clay back.

"Ugh!"

Blood splattered, and Kurotsuchi's left leg buckled, causing him to briefly lose his balance. Seeing this, Chiba seized the opportunity to deliver another stab to Kurotsuchi's waist.

"You're not even as strong as my eighty-year-old grandma. You can't possibly be unable to get an erection, can you?"

Seeing Kurotsuchi struggling to get back to his feet, Chiba smiled contemptuously and returned all the trash talk that Kurotsuchi and the other man had just hurled at them.

"Bastard, I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"

Red Earth's eyes were bloodshot as he glared fiercely at Chiba, looking as if he wanted to devour him alive.

In fact, the moment Tessai died, Kōdō realized that he should evacuate as soon as possible.

But he couldn't bring himself to run away like a coward after his childhood friend died so tragically right before his eyes!

Even if it means death, he will tear a piece of flesh from the other person's body!

"Earth Release: Multiple Earth Flows!"

Hongtu roared and slammed his fists heavily onto the ground.

Spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread to a distance of more than ten meters, and the shattered earth and rocks transformed into roaring earth dragons, ferociously crashing into Chiba who was trying to dodge backward.

"Ha, a desperate struggle, huh?"

Chiba smiled as he watched the earth dragon coil and pounce towards him like a net from heaven and earth.
