Dragon Ball, simultaneously traversing countless worlds

Naruto was no exception; after asking around among his classmates, he quickly found out who the other number 14 was.

Choji Akimichi will be Naruto's opponent this time.

Choji Akimichi was very low-key in class, and no one had ever heard of his abilities.

But since all 12 Konoha 12 have been given special advantages, Naruto naturally won't look down on Choji Akimichi.

Maybe this fat guy is hiding some amazing methods.

The lottery for the ninety students ended quickly.

Teacher Shuimu said from the podium: "The two students who drew number one, please stand in front of me."

Sasuke and a buck-toothed man stepped forward.

"Very good. Uchiha Sasuke, Toumichi Itsuki, you two form hand seals and prepare to fight."

Facing Sasuke, Fuyumichi Kazuki nervously formed the opposing hand seals and bowed slightly.

Sasuke kept a straight face and a cold expression, but he still carefully completed the opposing hand seals.

After both sides completed their opposing hand seals, the battle was about to begin.

Sasuke rushed towards his opponent like lightning, and before Toumichi Kazuki could react, he knocked him unconscious with a chop to the neck.

As expected, Sasuke won the battle.

The girls watching erupted in cheers, their eyes sparkling with hearts as they gazed at Sasuke with adoration.

"Sasuke is amazing, he's so cool!"

It's clear that even though Sasuke is different from the original character, he's still very popular with girls in this world.

Sasuke coldly tossed his hair and returned to Naruto's side without saying a word.

"Congratulations on winning the match so easily," Naruto said with a smile.

"Hmph! This kind of nobody is easy to defeat, isn't he? What's so great about him?" Sasuke curled his lip in disdain.

Teacher Mizuki, holding the list, said, "Toumichi Itsuki has failed and is now in the group awaiting advancement. Sasuke has passed the assessment and is graduating. Please collect your genin headband and graduation certificate from Teacher Iruka after the assessment."

"Alright, please come up on stage, second group of opponents."

Naruto looked at the podium and saw that the second group's opponents were two familiar faces.

Yamanaka Ino and Inuzuka Kiba.

Sasuke, standing to the side, showed an interested expression: "It's the two of them! This is going to be a spectacular swordsmanship duel."

Naruto asked curiously, "Swordsmanship? Do these two fight with swords? Isn't Yamanaka Ino's family's ninjutsu a kind of mind-based ninjutsu? Kiba Inuzuka seems to fight with ninja dogs too!"

Sasuke nodded: "You're right, but besides their family's ninjutsu, these two have other trump cards. Just keep an eye on them."

In front of the podium, Yamanaka Ino and Inuzuka Kiba formed opposing hand seals, and the next second, Yamanaka Ino collapsed to the ground.

Some people who didn't know Ino Yamanaka were very surprised by her unconsciousness, thinking that she was too nervous and had already lost the match.

However, teachers like Kiba Inuzuka and Mizuki, who are familiar with Ino, do not think so.

They all knew about the Ino-Shika-Cho clan's secret ninjutsu, and assumed that Ino was using the Mind Transfer Technique.

So the instant Ino collapsed, Kiba Inuzuka immediately activated the Inuzuka-ryu Human-Beast Hybrid Transformation Technique.

Kiba Inuzuka entered the fray with his ninja dog Akamaru. After activating his ninjutsu, he immediately fused with his dog.

Unlike the original work, Kiba Inuzuka's fusion form is not a two-headed giant wolf, but a human with dog ears and a dog tail.

“Ino, my mind and the ninja dog’s mind have merged, so your Mind Transfer Technique is useless against me.”

Ino's body was still unconscious on the ground, but her voice could be heard all around her: "Who said I was going to use the Mind Transfer Technique? Of course I knew that kind of ninjutsu wouldn't work on you, so let's settle this with swordsmanship this time!"

Without warning, the air was torn apart, and a streak of light, like a bolt of lightning, slashed towards Kiba Inuzuka.

Kiba Inuzuka's nerve reflexes were enhanced after merging with the ninja dog. He quickly dodged the sudden attack, but his clothes were still torn in front of him.

"What's going on? Did Ino launch an attack? Wasn't she lying on the ground without moving?"

Some students who were confused raised questions.

The answer was found in exceptionally talented individuals like Sasuke and Naruto.

In Sasuke's Sharingan and Naruto's spiritual perspective, a spirit form of Ino is standing opposite Kiba Inuzuka.

Ino Yamanaka was dressed in a Shinigami outfit, holding a slender ninja sword, and exuding a strong spiritual pressure.

Knew it!

Ino Yamanaka also got a power-up, a Shinigami power-up, gaining spiritual pressure and the power of her Zanpakuto.

Naruto looked at Kiba Inuzuka, wondering what kind of strength Ino would display in her spirit form.

Judging from Kiba Inuzuka's fearless demeanor, he probably has some kind of cheat code.

Chapter 343 Initial Release of the Wind Wound

Sasuke's Sharingan can see Yamanaka Ino in her spirit form.

Because Ino's spirit form also contains chakra, the Sharingan can't see a pure soul, but it can clearly see the flow of chakra.

Therefore, in Sasuke's vision, Ino's spirit was a hazy human figure outlined by lines, holding a long sword whose specific shape was unclear.

After Naruto cultivated the Great Celestial Immortal Technique and broke through the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation realm, he gained a primordial spirit. From the perspective of his primordial spirit, the spirit body of Ino he saw was exactly the same as Ino's.

Therefore, Naruto could clearly see that Ino was wearing a Shinigami outfit and could guess that she was wielding a Zanpakuto.

However, the Zanpakuto that Ino was holding was too ordinary in shape, just like a regular ninja sword with a rectangular hilt. Naruto couldn't tell the origin or name of this Zanpakuto for the time being.

He continued to watch the game.

The spirit Ino, wielding her Zanpakuto, leaped high into the air and slashed at Kiba Inuzuka's shoulder.

Kiba Inuzuka's nose twitched slightly, and without relying on his eyes, he detected Ino's attack solely by the 'scent' of the spirit.

He turned slightly to the side, his right fingernails grew longer, and his fingers were wrapped in a strong demonic aura as he clawed at Ino.

"How is it possible that you can actually see my spirit?"

Ino was taken aback by Kiba Inuzuka's counterattack. She had thought that Kiba had dodged her attack by instinct.

But now, from Kiba Inuzuka's slight sidestep to avoid the blade aimed at her shoulder, Ino could tell that Kiba Inuzuka could truly 'see' her.

"I saw it, no, I smelled it."

Kiba Inuzuka explained with great pride, "After I merged with Akamaru, I gained a completely new kind of chakra. With this chakra, I can sense your soul."

Naruto, listening from the side, was quite certain that the special chakra Kiba Inuzuka mentioned was actually demonic energy.

After Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru merged, Kiba Inuzuka became a half-demon and no longer used the power of a ninja.

The claws, covered in demonic energy, clashed with Ino's Zanpakuto, producing a metallic clang.

Ino suddenly pointed at Kiba Inuzuka's abdomen and whispered, "Hado Ichi-kyuu."

In an instant, a weak shockwave struck Kiba Inuzuka.

Caught off guard, Kiba's center of gravity was disrupted, and Ino slashed her Zanpakuto downwards, easily breaking through Kiba's defense, the tip of the blade piercing Kiba's shoulder.

Kiba Inuzuka retreated, wounded, with wisps of white smoke rising from his stabbed shoulder. The half-finger-long wound only bled slightly before healing completely.

"Such amazing recovery ability, it's comparable to Tsunade's."

In the Hokage's office, the old man Sarutobi was staring at a crystal ball, watching the graduation exams of this batch of young ninjas.

Sarutobi couldn't see Ino's spirit, but he could roughly guess that it was a secret technique similar to Kato Dan's spiritification technique, so he wasn't surprised.

The Third Hokage wasn't surprised that Kiba Inuzuka could fuse with Akamaru. The Inuzuka clan could fuse with ninja dogs to become a giant three-headed wolf. Kiba's half-human, half-dog form made the Third Hokage think that Kiba hadn't mastered his training.

Kiba Inuzuka was only slightly surprised when he demonstrated his ability to heal wounds quickly.

Kiba Inuzuka stepped back to create distance between himself and Ino, saying, "So, besides being able to attack with swords, your spirit can also use ranged attacks. I underestimated you."

Kiba Inuzuka warned, "I'm about to get serious, Ino, watch out."

Kiba Inuzuka suddenly swung his right hand and shouted, "Soul-Scattering Iron Claw!"

Intense demonic energy formed five streams of demonic energy in his palm, sharper than blades, which plowed deep furrows into the ground and approached Xiang Jingye.

Ino was taken aback and hurriedly used the blade of her Zanpakuto to block the demonic energy.

The violent demonic energy pushed Ino's spirit backward until her arms trembled and she took more than ten steps back, at which point she completely dispelled the demonic energy.

Ino tripped over something and looked down to find it was her own body. She immediately sensed something was wrong.

Kiba Inuzuka laughed loudly, "Ino, you've lost. Once I've got your defenseless body, you're finished."

"Don't even think about it!" Ino gritted her teeth, no longer holding back, and loudly chanted the release phrase of her Zanpakuto.

"Whisper, gray cat!"

As Ino chanted loudly, her Zanpakuto immediately released intense spiritual pressure, and the blade turned into gray mist as if it had rusted.

Naruto, who was watching the battle, suddenly realized: "It's Matsumoto Rangiku's Zanpakuto! This is really beyond my expectations!"

With the release of the gray cat, Kiba Inuzuka's perception of Ino also became confused.

The gray mist released by the War Soul Blade carries Ino's spiritual pressure, which can obscure Kiba Inuzuka's perception of demonic energy.

At this moment, Kiba Inuzuka could only feel the scent of Ino's spirit all around him, and he couldn't pinpoint her exact location at all.

But it doesn't matter. The spiritual pressure and gray mist can't cover Ino's flesh and blood. Her body is still lying on the ground. As long as Kiba Inuzuka grabs Ino's real body, the battle will be decided.

Just as Kiba Inuzuka was about to reach for Ino's physical form with his claws, Ino's spirit called out, "Neko Rondo!"

Ino swung her Zanpakuto, which transformed into smoke, and the billowing mist instantly coalesced into a tornado, enveloping Kiba Inuzuka at incredible speed and sending him flying backward.

The tornadoes formed by the fog also have a cutting effect.

Kiba Inuzuka was enveloped in gray mist, immediately covered in wounds, and cried out in pain.

Iruka was shocked and worried when he saw Kiba Inuzuka fly backwards for no apparent reason and then bleed profusely from his body.

"Ino, stop! You've won this battle. Stop attacking!"

Kiba Inuzuka shouted, "No, I haven't lost yet!"
