Naruto: What do you mean you're from the Head-Touching Village?

"That kid, Akira Shun, he never tells anyone when he creates a ninjutsu. What if he gets hurt? He's such a worry."

When Hiruzen Sarutobi saw this, he shook his head, his expression seemingly accusing.

"hehe..."

The Third Kazekage could only chuckle twice, ignoring Hiruzen Sarutobi's words.

To prevent Hiruzen Sarutobi from continuing to ramble on about this topic.

On the dueling field.

Kakashi quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!"

It is also a C-rank ninjutsu, but unlike the single-hit attack of the Great Fireball Technique, the Dragon Fire Technique is a continuous, linear flame. The terrifying high temperature distorts the air and blasts towards Akihi Shun, who has just landed on the ground and has no time to dodge.

"Water Release: Water Shield"

Hmm, this name sounds so repetitive, it doesn't get exciting at all when you call it out.

As he released the water shield, Akihi Shun silently made a mental remark.

A circular water shield appeared in front of Akihi Shun.

The terrifying flames crashed into the circular water shield. The flames raged and spewed out from both sides of the water shield, almost engulfing the figure behind it. Akira Shun clearly felt the scorching heat burning his skin, but the water shield stood firmly in front of him, successfully blocking all the attacks.

While blocking the Dragonfire Technique, Akira Shun pulled out another secret scroll.

"Earth Release·Yanluo!"

The boulder condensed from the sky and fell, rolling towards Kakashi. Kakashi immediately jumped to dodge, his hands rapidly forming hand seals as he did so.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"

Kakashi's lungs expanded as he took a deep breath and then exhaled sharply, sending several transparent wind-style chakra beams like bullets towards Akihito!

The first Vacuum Jade struck the water shield, creating ripples. At this point, the water shield could no longer withstand any more attacks and completely disappeared.

However, as the water shield disappeared, Akihi Shun's next attack was already prepared.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

A giant flame dragon head was spat out from Akihi Shun's mouth. Several Vacuum Balls that were originally shot at Akihi Shun collided with the flame dragon head, but they couldn't even make a ripple before being easily crushed by the Great Dragon Fire Technique!

The scorching heat tore through the air, and the ferocious fire dragon rushed straight towards Kakashi!

When Kakashi saw the fire dragon, he was not only not panicked, but a hint of joy even flashed in his eyes. His preparations had not been in vain!

"Water Release! Water Wave!"

A water tornado appeared around Kakashi's body. Under Kakashi's control, the water tornado detached from Kakashi's body and crashed into the Great Dragon Fire Technique!

The moment the water surge collided with the dragon fire, a frantic "sizzling" sound of evaporation erupted!

Immediately afterwards, a violent explosion erupted, and a massive cloud of water instantly engulfed the entire dueling arena, leaving only a hazy blur in sight.

The advantages of the five elemental chakras were fully demonstrated in the two of them!

In the audience, everyone was dumbfounded. Even some Jonin had never expected that such a thing would happen during a Chunin Exam.

"Is this still the Chunin Exams? What have I done here?"

"These two guys possess at least four elemental chakra natures!"

"It's awesome to see such a spectacular clash of ninjutsu during the Chunin Exams!"

"It seems that Shun Akihito is stronger. Even with Water Release being the counter to Fire Release, Kakashi could only manage to take on Shun Akihito in a draw."

In the dueling arena.

Kakashi seized the opportunity, drew his White Fang Blade, and quickly closed in!

We must engage in close combat!

It takes time for Akiga Shun to summon his ninja tools. He can take advantage of having an extra White Fang Blade and use taijutsu to suppress Akiga Shun!

If he can successfully suppress Akihi Shun and not give him any chance to use ninjutsu, then he may be able to defeat Akihi Shun through close combat!

Victory is beckoning to him!

Kakashi's figure flashed across the dueling arena, his White Fang Blade cutting through the air with a whooshing sound, heading straight for Shun's waist.

However, just when Kakashi felt he had the upper hand, Shun Akihito's fist moved.

Superhuman strength activated!

A punch faster than the White Fang Blade struck Kakashi first, before the White Fang Blade could hit Akira Shun.

"Bang!"

A dull thud exploded as the punch landed squarely on Kakashi, even creating a transparent ripple in the air.

Kakashi, struck by the punch, arched his body like a shrimp, his pupils turning blood red, before flying backward and crashing into the wall of the dueling arena with a loud bang, creating spiderweb-like cracks!

Kakashi's body slid down naturally, and he knelt on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood that stained his mask red.

He has broken ribs, at least three.

With just one punch, Kakashi was brought back to his senses.

Never engage in close combat!

Damn it! I should have thought of that sooner!

Akiga Shun learns things so quickly, and his teacher is none other than Lady Tsunade. He must have already mastered Lady Tsunade's signature ninjutsu, Super Strength!

On the high platform.

Tsunade, who was watching, smiled slightly upon seeing this scene.

Seeing her apprentice use her ninjutsu to inflict heavy damage on her opponent and display her prowess on the field gives her a strange sense of satisfaction.

The Third Kazekage glanced at Tsunade subtly before looking away.

Is Akatsuki Shun's relationship with the Sannin a little too good?

Based on the intelligence, it seems that Shun Akihime is Tsunade's student, which is quite normal; a genius needs a great teacher.

The problem is that information has been circulating in the past few days that Jiraiya calls Akihito Shun "teacher".

Wouldn't that mean that Akihito Shun would be both the teacher and student of the Sannin at the same time?

It's really strange. Even if Akihito Shun is a genius, he really can't imagine what a child this age could teach someone like Jiraiya.

Moreover, aren't the relationships in Konoha Village a bit too complicated?

......

Inside the dueling arena.

Supporting himself on the ground, Kakashi stood up shakily.

After removing his mask and carelessly tossing it on the ground, he spat out the blood from his mouth, quickly composed himself, and sheathed his White Fang Blade to prepare for the second round of attack.

It's just a few broken ribs; medical ninjutsu can easily heal them. The battle is more important right now.

He had been training so hard lately to deal with Akihi Shun, learning ninjutsu of every element, all to prepare for today!

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Spear!"

Kakashi stood up again.

Akira Shun didn't say much, but simply began to mobilize the chakra within his body.

However, this time the chakra attribute was different, not belonging to any of the five elemental chakra types, and a chill began to emanate from Akatsuki Shun's body.

It's time to end the battle.

Akira Shun clearly remembered the effect of the Earth Stream Gun: it controlled the soil on the ground to form spikes that attacked upwards.

So, all we need to do is freeze the soil to prevent the spikes from forming!

"Ice Release: Ice Pillar Swallow!"
