Chapter 94 Natsuki vs. Kushina (First and Second Updates)

Two days later, at the first training ground.

Unlike the joint Chunin Exams in the original work, this Chunin Exam's third individual battle had very few spectators.

However, there were exceptions, because Hiruzen Sarutobi was present.

With Orochimaru and Tsunade also involved, the audience's quality is quite high.

Many of the genin who participated in the Chunin Exams became excited.

If you perform well in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi, you will definitely be given important responsibilities in the future.

"Unfortunately, Jiraiya is not here either."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with some regret, "If he were here, it would be rare for the four of us, teacher and student, to get together."

"We can reunite naturally after the war ends."

Orochimaru said calmly.

"Too."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, then asked, "Who do you think will be the winner of this individual tournament?"

"Natsuki."

Orochimaru and Tsunade said in unison.

"It seems you all agree."

Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed and said.

"Teacher, do you have different candidates?"

Tsunade countered with a question.

"no."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said, "Unless Minato learns the Flying Thunder God Technique."

"The Flying Thunder God Technique alone is not enough."

Tsunade looked at Minato Namikaze in the distance and said.

The Flying Thunder God Technique only allows for instantaneous teleportation.

To perform a backstab while moving is called the Flying Thunder God Slash.

Tobirama Senju defeated Izuna Uchiha using the Flying Thunder God Slash.

In the original work, Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique Second Stage, which is the Flying Thunder God Technique combined with the Rasengan.

The Flying Thunder God Technique also has another incredible use, called Flying Thunder God Guiding Thunder.

Its effect is to transfer items or people, including Tailed Beast Balls.

This is the key to why the Flying Thunder God Technique became a strategic-level ninjutsu.

"If you can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, you can learn its other uses."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "Natsuki plus Minato makes a perfect second teacher."

After all, Tobirama Senju's greatest strengths were the Flying Thunder God Technique and his self-created ninjutsu.

"They are them, and Second Grandfather is Second Grandfather."

Tsunade shook her head and said.

"I look forward to their future."

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't argue with Tsunade any further and nodded.

Time passed slowly.

It was soon nine o'clock in the morning.

"The third match is an individual battle, and we will most likely become opponents."

Nawaki reminded everyone, "Don't hold back just because you're on good terms with each other. Just give it your all."

"I feel like my youth is boiling over!"

"Let's have a battle full of youthful energy!" Matt Day exclaimed excitedly.

Rope Tree hesitated, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

Do medical ninjas receive special treatment in individual battles?

Kaori Uzumaki glanced at Suzume Inuzuka and said, "I feel that individual battles are very unfair to medical ninjas."

"I heard from my sister that after the Chunin Exams, Konoha will test the medical ninjutsu that the medical ninja has mastered."

""

Nawaki explained, "We will conduct an assessment based on the medical ninjutsu we have at the time."

Kaori Uzumaki felt much relieved after hearing this.

She was worried that Inuyasaku wouldn't be able to become a Chunin through individual combat.

Having spent time together, they have become good friends and naturally don't want a team to have only two people become Chunin.

There's no need to worry too much about Yakushi Nonou.

After all, her teacher was Tsunade.

Just then, Inuya Jaw walked to the center of the field.

He was still the chief examiner for the third round of the Chunin Exams.

"The third match is an individual battle, and the only rule is to stop when the opponent has made a move."

Inuzuka Jaw paused for a moment, then said, "First round, first match: Natsuki vs. Kuwano!"

"come on!"

Kushina Uzumaki, Nawaki, and the others all spoke up.

"Thanks."

Xia Mu stepped onto the stage with a calm expression.

His opponent, Kuwano, had an expression of utter grief.

He encountered Orochimaru's student, the genius among geniuses, the famous Natsuki, in his very first match, and he felt extremely unlucky.

"Battle begins!"

Inuya and the other two formed a seal of opposition and then shouted.

Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!

Without hesitation, Sangye formed a hand seal.

He opened his mouth and exhaled a gust of wind.

Ittō-ryū (One-Sword Style), Iaijutsu (Quick Attack), and Shishi-sō (Lion's Lament)!

Xia Mu's solution was simple.

He drew a wooden sword and faced the raging wind.

The dazzling blade light, like a sharp sword, cleaved the gale in two.

Sangye felt a blur before his eyes, and Xia Mu was right in front of him.

What followed was a burning pain.

He looked down and saw that the wooden knife had already landed on his abdomen.

If it were a real knife, it could easily cut him open.

Most importantly, Kuwano didn't even see Natsuki's strike clearly.

He had just unleashed Wind Release: Great Breakthrough when, before he could react, he was struck by the wooden sword.

The gap in strength is unimaginable.

"I surrender."

Sangye said, completely convinced.

Xia Mu nodded and put away the wooden sword.

"The victor is Xia Mu."

"This is what Inuya Jaw announced."

Neither the participating genin nor the spectators like Hiruzen Sarutobi reacted much to the result.

After all, in their view, this is normal.

The exam continues.

Xia Mu quickly discovered the problem.

Because until the end of the first round, none of the nine players from the three teams were matched with anyone, which can be described as a perfect avoidance.

Xia Mu suspected that there was something fishy going on behind the scenes.

After all, the identities of the nine people in their three teams are all extraordinary.

Apart from Might Guy, they are all from ninja clans or the Hokage lineage.

By the second round, the number of participants had halved, and the remaining genin were the elite among them.

It's no exaggeration to say that many of them possess strength comparable to Chunin.

"Round 2, Match 3: Nawaki vs. Inuzuka Suzume!"

"Inuzuka Jacques shouted loudly."

Because of the sharp decrease in numbers, the three teams will inevitably become rivals.

"Sukume, you're a medical ninja, if you can't win, just admit defeat."

Minato Namikaze, as the captain, immediately offered words of comfort.

He knew very well Nawaki's strength; Inuzuka Suzume was no match for him.

"Just show your abilities."

Kaori Uzumaki followed up with her words.

Upon hearing this, Rope Tree scratched his head.

He felt like some kind of great demon king.

However, this experience is quite enjoyable.

Nawaki entered the arena carrying the greatsword Samehada.

Inuzuka Suzume did not give up right away.

After all, she wasn't just a medical ninja; as a ninja of the Inu clan, she had also learned the clan's secret techniques.

Inuzuka Suzume bent over, placed her hands on the ground, and adopted a posture resembling that of a wild beast.

Her ninja dogs were also baring their teeth, ready to attack at any moment.

Teeth clearing!

Inuzuka Suzume and her ninja dog leaped into the air.

In an instant, two whirlwinds crashed into the rope tree at extremely high speed.

But Rope Tree had anticipated this.

By the time they made their move, the hand seals were already complete.

The water-style chakra transformed into a water dragon and surged outwards.

boom!

Water splashed everywhere.

The two violently spinning whirlwinds and the water dragon reached a stalemate.

The air currents churned and rippled outwards under the influence of chakra.

Seeing this, Rope Tree formed another hand seal.

Water Escape·Water Rush Wave!

He clapped his hands, and a stream of water flowed onto the ground, followed by a water-based tornado.

Under his control, the water spun and flew out.

The stalemate immediately changed.

After the water flow collided with the two whirlwinds, it dispersed like a waterfall.

The terrifying impact overwhelmed the two whirlwinds.

Inujaku and her ninja dog reappeared, struggling in the water.

Upon seeing this, Rope Tree immediately controlled the water flow and retreated.

Inuzuka Suzume and her ninja dog fell to the ground, soaking wet, and passed out.

"The victor is Nawaki!"

Inuzuka Jacques announced.

After he finished speaking, two female medical ninjas stepped forward and took Inuyasaku and her ninja dog away.

"Sorry, I didn't control the power well."

After Nawaki left the field, he spoke to Minato Namikaze and Kaori Uzumaki.

"She's fine."

Minato Namikaze shook his head and said, "Just change your clothes."

"A battle fought with all your might needs no apology!"

Matt Day gave a thumbs up and said, "That's youth!"

"Injuries in battle are inevitable."

Natsuki patted Nawaki on the shoulder and said, "The battles to come will probably be even more intense."

"Round 2, Match 4: Natsuki vs. Suzaku Nara!"

Inuzuka Jacques interrupted their conversation.

"Looks like I'm not having much luck."

Upon hearing Natsuki's name, Suzaku Nara sighed and said, "Well, the sooner he's eliminated, the sooner he can rest."

He had completely given up hope of winning.

"Even if we lose, we want to lose in battle!"

Teammate Matt Day encouraged him enthusiastically, saying, "We must not let our youth go to waste!"

"Thanks."

Suzaku Nara paused for a moment, then walked into the arena.

Xia Mu looked at him, deep in thought.

Did he learn Shadow Assassin and Shadow Space?

Regardless, when dealing with the Nara clan's ninjas, one must always be wary of shadows.

Their high intelligence often leads their targets into traps without them even realizing it.

But if the gap in strength is too large, that's another matter.

After Xia Mu completed the seal of opposition, the sound of wind breaking rang out.

Nara Suzaku flicked his hands, and six kunai shot straight at his vital points.

Water Breathing - Seventh Form - Shizuku Ripple Strike!

Xia Mu took out a wooden sword and disappeared from the spot.

The water flow created circular ripples that sent all the kunai flying.

The wooden sword pierced towards Suzaku Nara in a straight line.

Suzaku Nara immediately felt a sharp pain.

Just as he was about to be hit, his body suddenly flattened and disappeared into his own shadow.

It was the Shadow Assassin.

Xia Mu was not surprised to see this.

He sheathed his wooden sword, raised his left hand, and aimed it at the shadow on the ground.

Unsystematic Magic: Illusionary Rush!

An invisible mental shockwave struck the shadow.

Suzaku Nara, who was in the shadow space, suddenly felt dizzy.

He uncontrollably dispelled the shadow assassin and reappeared in the outside world.

Xia Mu casually raised a wooden knife and held it against his neck.

A moment later, when Nara Suzaku broke free from the systemless magic Illusionary Strike, he opened his eyes and saw the wooden sword in Natsuki's hand.

He steadied himself and realized that he had indeed lost without any power to resist.

"The victor is Xia Mu!"

Inuzuka Jacques then announced.

"As expected of the inventor of the Shadow Assassin, Xia Mu found the weakness in one go."

Minato Namikaze shook his head and said.

"Using the ninjutsu created by its inventor to fight it will naturally be ineffective."

Rope Tree said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, a phrase popped into my mind: "A mere trifle, yet you dare to show off your skills before an expert."

The exam continues.

The second part was coming to an end very quickly.

Apart from Natsuga, Nawaki, Inuzuka Suzaku, and Nara Suzaku, the other five did not encounter each other again and all successfully entered the next world.

"Only one person is left in the second round. There are seven people in the team."

Rope Tree glanced at them and exclaimed excitedly, "You guys are the strongest squad among your peers!"

"Although many genin didn't participate in this Chunin Exams, I agree with what you said!"

Kushina Uzumaki smiled and said with great interest.

"To be able to reach the final round alongside geniuses like you, Zi truly lives up to his youth!"

Matt Day shouted, his voice trembling.

"Don't rush into things. Reaching the first level doesn't mean you can become a Chunin."

Seeing this, Xia Wo quickly stopped him.

Xia, I'm right.

Minato Namikaze changed the subject, saying, "The battles that follow can all be described as fierce."

"No matter what, I have to get into the top three!"

Rope Tree clenched his fist and said.

"In the name of my youth, Uta will become a Chunin!"

Matt Day gave a thumbs up, and Art Gear Flash said.

He had been a genin for seven years, and this was his first time participating in the chunin exams.

No matter what, he must seize this opportunity.

Because he didn't know if this was his only chance in his life.

"Break time is over, let's begin the next step."

Inuzuka Jacques walked into the center of the arena and shouted, "Match #1! Natsume vs. Uzumaki Kushina!"

"What?"

Kushina Uzumaki's eyes widened as she asked, "Why is Suzuka's opponent Natsuga?"

Xia twitched at the corner of her mouth.

What kind of matching mechanism is this?

Or was this arranged by Hiruzen Sarutobi?

"Good luck to both of you!"

Rope Tree blinked and said.

However, this statement sounds somewhat gloating.

Kushina Uzumaki subconsciously looked at Natsume.

"It's a random draw; you could get anyone."

Xia Wo said with a smile, "Zi hasn't seen your true strength yet, so this is a rare opportunity."

"Then let's have a casual exchange of skills."

Kushina Uzumaki waved her hand and said.

She couldn't bring herself to hit Xia Wo.

However, she also knew that her strength was inferior to Xia Ge's.

"Here you are!"

Kushina Uzumaki rushed towards Natsume.

Once he got in front of him, it was just a simple punch.

Xia Wo twisted his body and dodged it.

Golden right foot!

He kicked it out.

Kushina Uzumaki twisted her wrist and threw a straight punch, hitting his right foot.

boom!

A terrifying force suddenly exploded, and visible shockwaves rose into the air at the point of impact.

Xia couldn't help but take two steps back.

"How's Zi's superhuman strength?"

Kushina Uzumaki, having gained a slight advantage, asked with a smile.

"His posture is impressive."

Xia told me the truth.

To reiterate, his current physical skills are not particularly strong.

"Is Kushina that strong?"

Matt Day asked, looking surprised.

He was a taijutsu ninja, so he knew very well how terrifying Kushina Uzumaki's monstrous punch was.

Although he was Kushina Uzumaki's teammate, he was unaware of her true strength.

She had never used superhuman strength with her two previous sons.

"Kushina is Yuzuriha's student!"

Rope Tree raised his chin slightly and said smugly.

"Lady Tsunade is a renowned taijutsu master in my village, Ye Village."

Minato Namikaze echoed.

"It's such an honor to meet so many taijutsu ninjas!"

Matt Day burst into tears and snot, exclaiming, "Zi's youth will surely unleash even more energy!"

Kaori Uzumaki, Minato Namikaze, and the others instinctively took a half-step back.

"I didn't use my full strength, Xia."

"I am Yakushino," Yakushino said softly, watching the battle unfold.

The sounds of banging and crashing continued.

Both Natsuki and Kushina Uzumaki fought using only physical techniques.

However, it is clear that the former is slightly inferior to the former under the attack of superhuman strength.

"When did my reaction time become so fast?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly noticed a blind spot and asked in confusion.

Previously, when Xia Ge used swordsmanship, he didn't have a chance to demonstrate his reaction ability.

However, when he was fighting Kushina Uzumaki, he was in a bad situation and had to use his reflexes to dodge.

This dodge alerted Hiruzen Sarutobi to the problem.

"It's definitely much faster than before."

Orochimaru said thoughtfully, "Perhaps it's because his phlegm body has developed again."

"This reaction speed is comparable to Minato's."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow and asked, "Does he also have the talent to master the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

Minato Namikaze was ultimately Jiraiya's student.

His ability to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique would certainly be of great benefit to my village, but he is Jiraiya's student.

I am different from Xia. I am considered half her student, and I am close to her. I am more representative of Tobirama Senju.

"This is truly a pleasant surprise."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.

"We had a great time playing today."

A few minutes later, Kushina Uzumaki created some distance and said with a smile, "Natsuga, go all out."

She naturally knew that Xia Mu had been playing with her all along.

Xia nodded and took out a knife.

One-Sword Style: Sweep Away Sixteen Troubles!

Xia Mu swung his sword forcefully, and a wave of sword energy exploded in the air.

Kushina Uzumaki immediately felt a sense of crisis she had never experienced before.

She clenched her fist and used her superhuman strength again.

With a loud bang!

Sword Wave was blasted into pieces by the monstrous force.

But this is just the beginning.

Water Breathing - Land Form - Twisting Vortex!

Xia Wo twisted his body and raised his knife upwards.

A large amount of water gushed out, like a water dragon spiraling towards Kushina.

Kushina Uzumaki felt that all she could see was water.

She instinctively raised her right leg and stomped down hard.

The ground suddenly cracked open.

Countless pebbles crashed into the water.

The two collided, creating splashes of water like a light rain.

With a flick of my wrist, Xia deflected the remaining rubble with my knife.

Rasengan!

Kushina Uzumaki seized the opportunity and slammed her right hand towards Natsume.

Seeing this, Xia Ga retreated while simultaneously unleashing a Rasengan with his left hand.

The two Rasengans collided and exploded instantly.

With lightning speed, Natsume grabbed Kushina Uzumaki's wrist and pulled her in front of him.

The Rasengan therefore had no effect on her.

"Thanks."

Kushina Uzumaki paused for a moment, then said, "You're still the best. I concede."

"What kind of ninjutsu is this?"

When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw the Rasengan, he was immediately startled.

This power is at least A-level.

And most importantly, it is actually a ninjutsu without hand seals.

"It's the Rasengan that Natsume created."

Tsunade said with a smile.

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but tug at his beard.

As Xia Ga's strength increased, the level of the ninjutsu he created also became increasingly advanced.

If this continues, he will become just like Tobirama Senju, having an increasingly greater influence on my village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi previously said that Natsuga Kagami and Minato Namikaze would be the next Tobirama Senju.

In retrospect, whether or not he learns the Flying Thunder God Technique will not affect his ability to become the next Tobirama Senju.
