Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 443 The Rival for Upgrading

Seeing that Kotetsu had once again dodged his water-style attack, Izumo Kamizuki gave up on his pointless ranged attacks.

At this point, both of them had used up all their shuriken and kunai, and their chakra was almost depleted. The only 'weapons' they had left were their fists.

Faced with this situation, the two of them shouted and rushed forward at the same time.

"Brother!" x2

"Bang!" x2

Watching the two men in the arena simultaneously roar and punch each other in the cheek.

They were then both blasted away, injured and unconscious, and collapsed to the ground.

The entire examination room fell into a deathly silence.

Followed by.

"Clap clap clap clap~"

A series of soft sounds rang out.

But don't get me wrong, it's not just other people applauding the Konoha duo who are fighting so hard.

But

Most people instinctively put their hands to their foreheads, and because they were so speechless, they couldn't control the force with which they slapped their foreheads, which resulted in a series of "slap slap" sounds.

Kono returned to the field.

Seeing that these two noobs could fight to a standstill, the final result was announced in a speechless manner.

"Konoha's Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Kouki have both lost their fighting ability, resulting in a draw and both being eliminated!"

Surprisingly, not a single person present, including Konoha's own ninjas, objected to the results announced by Kono.

If someone were as strong as Uchiha Shisui or Mitarashi Anko, they would be excluded from the final exam due to the draw.

Others might feel sorry for him.

But the elimination of these two weaklings has actually brought a sigh of relief to everyone.

"Luckily, their match didn't have many spectators!"

Everyone found it hard to believe that a genin of this caliber could even make it into the third exam.

This will make the famous figures and nobles who come to watch the competition have great doubts about the level of this year's candidates.

However, Kono in the arena doesn't seem ready to let Konoha off the hook.

Seeing the two lying on the ground, he thought for a moment, then looked up in the direction of the Konoha group and called out.

"Friends from Konoha, please take these two away and vacate the venue. There is one last match to be played."

The Jonin instructor who led Uchiha Shisui's team was still in the infirmary accompanying the injured Hayate Gekko for treatment.

Only the Jonin leading Mitarashi Anko's team remained, glancing around.

Seeing that no one could help him, he instantly appeared on the arena, his face full of exasperation.

He kept his head down and didn't say a word. He picked up the two clowns in his squad, one in each hand, and jumped back.

Kono glanced around and realized that the previous battle between the two Konoha members didn't seem to have caused much damage to the arena.

Instead of calling on the Chunin Examiners to rebuild the battlefield, he directly announced the start of the final battle.

"The ninth match: Kirikakushi Ringo Ameyuri vs. Sunagakure Gravel!"

Ringo Ameyuri, who had been waiting for a long time, rubbed her hands together and stared at the Sand Village's Gravel opposite her.

"So it's you, you bastard, who likes playing with drugs, isn't that right!"

Having suffered a loss at the hands of the other party before, she had long been looking for an opportunity to teach them a lesson.

Although she couldn't fight her opponent in the final exam, she was still quite satisfied with this opportunity.

Meanwhile, Kabuto quietly slipped two pills into Ringo Ameyuri's hand and whispered something.

"Their team finished the second round only a few hours later than us, and although he seems to be carrying only one puppet right now, given the time spent on the second exam, plus this day and night of rest, his puppet is likely already repaired. Don't let your guard down!"

Upon hearing this, Ringo Amori nodded heavily.

Even Lanzi, who had been quietly watching the game, stepped forward and gently patted Ringo's shoulder.

"Quack! Hehe (ー`ー)"

Seeing this, Ringo turned around and gave Lan a big smile.

"Don't worry, Master Lan, I won't lose to that bastard!"

After saying that, Ringo Ameyuri didn't hesitate any longer and jumped directly onto the arena.

Meanwhile, Gravel, on the other side, slowly removed the bandages from the puppet's back and stood it on the ground.

"I can't believe you survived being poisoned by me last time!"

"Was it that bespectacled guy from your team who cured you? He's actually pretty good at it."

"But your luck ends here. Meeting me means you're destined to miss the final exam!"

Faced with Gravel's mockery, Ringo Ameyuri simply grinned, revealing a row of small, sharp teeth, and smiled sweetly before continuing.

"You talk too much nonsense!"

Seeing that both candidates were ready, Kono did not linger and quickly stepped off the stage as he announced the start.

From the very beginning of the battle, Ringo Ameyuri held nothing back.

He stomped his feet on the ground, instantly unleashing a burst of chakra, and charged towards Gravel.

"Iai*Double Flash!"

With a clang.

The two incredibly sharp blades were drawn simultaneously, swiftly slicing through the air and striking the stone that stood rooted to the spot.

However, Gravel is no mediocre player either.

A few days ago on the small island, Reki had already witnessed the speed of Ringo Ameyuri's slashes.

Gravel was already prepared the moment she launched her attack.

Just as the swords were about to strike, the bandages on the puppet beside Gravel suddenly shattered and instantly unfolded, standing in front of him.

"Clang~"

The metallic clanging sound reverberated violently.

The white shockwave spread rapidly in all directions.

As Ringo Ameyuri unleashed her slash, she noticed that the puppet in front of her was holding up a familiar-looking 'shield'.

The puppet in front of him opened its mouth wide.

Without time to think, Ringo Ameyuri quickly flew to the side to dodge the Thousand Needles attack launched from the opposite side.

After regaining her footing, Ringo Yuri looked closely.

The puppet used by Gravel on the other side was different from the previous two.

"No, this is still that humanoid puppet!"

Having successfully forced Ringo Amori to retreat, Gravel let his puppet float beside him and said with an arrogant sneer.

"It's all thanks to you destroying my sandboat that I was able to come up with the idea of ​​fusing the two puppets into one!"

That's right, the puppet Gravel is using right now is still the relatively ordinary humanoid puppet.

However, its arms were fitted with parts of the hull and weapons left over from the destruction of the previous "Sand Boat".

During the previous battle against Kabuto and the other two, he forcibly used the nearly broken "Sand Boat" to unleash the "Wind Sand Cannon," which resulted in the entire puppet being blown up beyond repair.

The humanoid puppet's arms were also shattered by Ringo Ameyuri and Hozuki Mangetsu.

Gravel then had to use all his spare time over the next few days to merge the two puppets into one.

However, it now seems that this new puppet, which combines the advantages of the two puppets, is even stronger.

In an era where most Sunagakure practitioners are "puppet masters" rather than "puppet makers," Reki's ability to achieve such a transformation in just a few days is indeed something to be proud of.

"That's why I say! Your good luck ends here!"
