Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

I never expected Bai Yu's fighting style to be so open, powerful and domineering. I never expected that his disciple would be so delicate-looking and use such a small weapon.

As expected, when the shuriken collided with the senbon, although the shuriken's flight direction was changed, the force was obviously insufficient. Four of the shuriken, after being deflected by the senbon, still shot towards Shiro, but judging from the trajectory, they could not hit Shiro.

Ding Ding Ding Ding!

Just as the four shuriken flew to the position behind Shiro, the shuriken collided in pairs and then changed their trajectory, flying towards Shiro's back.

At close range, Bai seemed completely oblivious.

To be precise, it was too late to react.

puff!

Two shuriken struck Bai in the back.

"what?!"

"How is this possible?!"

"Is this the Uchiha clan's shurikenjutsu?"

"it's over?!"

The examinees were incredulous. They had expected a fierce battle, but Itachi Uchiha had ended the fight with a single move.

"wrong!"

The Jonin were the first to react.

Click!

Bai's body suddenly turned into ice, then quickly shattered into tiny icicles that fell to the ground.

"Water clone?"

"This is Ice Release?!"

"Isn't this the Snow Clan's bloodline limit? Could it be...?"

At this moment, Bai's figure emerged from the broken ice.

Whoosh whoosh!

Immediately afterwards, all the ice shards on the ground floated up and shot towards Itachi, creating a sharp whooshing sound.

Since Bai Yu also learned the Uchiha clan's special ninja tool throwing technique from Chiho, he naturally taught it to Bai and Kimimaro as well. Whether the two of them mastered it or not was secondary; what mattered was that they needed to understand this unexpected attack method.

Itachi's pupils contracted, and he retreated rapidly. At the same time, he finally stopped his probing attacks and activated his Sharingan with two tomoe. He quickly formed hand seals, puffed out his cheeks, and spewed out a large ball of scorching flames.

Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!

A massive fireball, over six meters in diameter, hurtled towards the oncoming ice shards with a violent, scorching current.

呲呲呲!

The high temperature caused the ice to melt rapidly, and a large amount of mist rose up. Some large pieces of ice also turned into water, wetting the area.

"These two... are terrifying!"

"They're not even in the same league."

The examinees watching from the second floor stared wide-eyed. The Great Fireball Technique, a C-rank ninjutsu, is generally only usable by Chunin, and it's absolutely impossible for it to be cast almost instantly like the Uchiha. This kind of fire jutsu is not something an ordinary Chunin can release.

Especially after Itachi used the Great Fireball Technique, he still acted nonchalantly, clearly indicating that he hadn't used his full strength yet.

Seeing the ice melt, Itachi did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he observed the water marks left behind after the ice melted. Suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply. These seemingly random water marks completely blocked his path of attack, forming a semi-circle.

Thinking of this, Itachi observed Haku's expression but could not glean any information from it.

Whoosh whoosh!

Haku kept shooting senbon needles and ice shards from afar. Itachi, relying on the Sharingan's powerful dynamic vision, seemed to be in grave danger, but he managed to dodge all the attacks unscathed.

After discovering that Haku was attacking from a distance and not engaging in close combat, Itachi had an idea and decided to take the risk.

He rushed towards Bai's direction, constantly deflecting the incoming kunai with his kunai.

'Secret Technique: Magic Mirror Ice Crystals!'

When Haku saw Itachi walk into the trap, he immediately stretched out his left hand to form a hand seal, while his right hand continuously threw out senbon needles to block Itachi's progress.

"One-handed hand seal?!"

"That brat actually..."

"As expected, it's the Snow Clan's Ice Release technique!"

The Konoha Jonin watching the battle changed their expressions.

At this moment, the water around Itachi quickly rose up and formed smooth, mirror-like ice crystals in front of him, completely enveloping his body.

"What kind of secret technique is this?"

"so cold!"

The examinees were stunned by the chill emanating from the ice crystals. Could this kid who looked to be only ** years old really be a genin?

They actually have to compete against such an opponent.

"As expected!" Itachi's eyes changed slightly as he looked at the ice crystals that suddenly appeared around him. The nearest ice crystal was less than a meter away from him. Thinking of this, he looked at the white figure whose body had merged into the ice crystal and quickly retreated, while using the blind spot to form hand seals.

Noticing Itachi's imminent escape, Haku's eyes flickered slightly. Just as he was about to form a hand seal with his right hand, he hesitated for a moment, then his figure moved through the ice crystals and attacked Itachi.

At that moment, Itachi suddenly turned around, and terrifying fire chakra spewed from his mouth.

'Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!'

A massive dragon-head-shaped flame shot out with a roar. Bai's eyes changed, and he reversed his body, returning to the ice crystal. However, the next second, the fire dragon struck the ice crystal.

Click!

With a crisp sound, the ice crystals that Bai Cangshen was covered in shattered by the high temperature and the huge impact. His body flew backward and rolled several times on the ground before coming to a stop.

Other ice crystals also disintegrated.

"This child can actually use a B-rank Fire Release technique?!"

The Konoha Jonin were once again shocked. A 10-year-old Genin was able to use a B-rank Fire Release ninjutsu that many Jonin could not use. Is this the Uchiha clan?

"I lost." Bai got up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile.

Itachi nodded with difficulty, his breathing somewhat disordered. Using a B-rank Fire Release technique was still too much for him; one Great Fireball and one Great Dragon Fire had almost depleted his chakra.

"The victor is Uchiha Itachi!" Oshima Shuichi arrived at the arena, his gaze sweeping over the two boys, a sense of melancholy creeping into his heart.

"Sigh..." Kimimaro, who was watching from the second floor, sighed when he saw Shiro admit defeat and pounded the railing.

"Bai is a kind child." Bai Yu chuckled lightly, not angry about Bai's defeat.

It's clear that Bai subconsciously held back just now.

Of course, Itachi's strength also surprised him somewhat; he was indeed very strong.

It's just unknown what the outcome will be when they encounter Kimimaro and Meteorite, who might not hold back in battle.

'This Chunin Selection Exam is getting more and more interesting.' Bai Yu chuckled to himself as he looked at the Third Hokage and Fugaku Uchiha, who were both smiling.

Bai returned to the second floor, went to Bai Yu's side, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Teacher Bai Yu, I..."

"It's alright. The outcome of an exam isn't important. Just remember, you can't always hold back."

Bai Yu said gently.

[Chapter 192 Crushing Strike]

Hiruzen Sarutobi: ? ? ?

Fugaku Uchiha: ? ? ?

The two people next to Bai Yu looked rather unpleasant, as Bai Yu had already said everything.

If we win, it means Konoha is inferior to the Uzumaki clan; if we lose, it doesn't matter whether we win or lose, right?

If that's the case, why did they initially have Kimimaro, Haku, and Meteorite snipe Itachi?

Despite feeling some disdain, neither of them said anything to Bai Yu's face, only feeling that Bai Yu was a sore loser.

"The second match begins!"

As Haku and Itachi left, the giant electronic screen on the wall started scrolling again, and everyone's attention was drawn to Shuichi Oshima's voice.

Unfortunately, neither of the two combatants in the second battle were any well-known clan juniors. Compared to the battle between Haku and Itachi, it seemed rather childish. The battle between the two sides was basically limited to taijutsu and ninja tool throwing. The ninjutsu they occasionally used were the most basic and relatively weak.

This is the level of a genin who is close to chunin strength.

The competition continued, and the battles between genin of similar skill levels were the slowest, as both sides tried to deplete each other's chakra and win by virtue of their physical strength.

However, there aren't many such genin. Those who remain to participate in the preliminaries are mostly genin from ninja clans who have undergone intensive training, except for a few who are just trying their luck.

Soon, the battle was halfway through, and the names of the two sides in the tenth match stopped scrolling on the electronic screen.

—Yuto Akimichi vs. Meteorite—

"Youren! Keep it up!"

"A beautiful win!"

When Yuto Akimichi took the stage, his two teammates cheered him on from the second floor, seemingly very confident in his abilities.

"The tenth match begins!" Hideichi Oshima gave the order, then stepped back again.

Yuto Akimichi is tall and strong with a handsome face, but his slightly overweight figure ruins his overall image.

Members of this family are generally large in size because this is related to a secret technique passed down through generations. The Akimichi clan has the special ability to convert fat into a large amount of chakra, so they must store a large amount of fat in their bodies.

In terms of destructive power of taijutsu alone, the Akimichi clan is the strongest among all the clans in Konoha.

Compared to Akimichi Yuto, Meteorite appeared rather short and thin. After all, he was a newcomer in the Star Village who had mastered the Peacock Technique to a relatively high level. Despite Shiraha's treatment, the radiation still had some effect on his body, causing him to look rather emaciated.

Meteorite has a rather ordinary appearance and a somewhat dull expression. He's the kind of person who would be hard to spot in a crowd. The only thing that stands out is his short, dark green hair.

"Please take good care of me," Akimichi Yuto said seriously, appearing very polite.
