The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

The sword danced and twirled in Erzhuzi's hands, occasionally flashing a swordplay that drew cheers from the audience in the stands.

But Kazama Kaoru felt a little scared. If this silly kid accidentally ran into him, the Iron Sand Sword wouldn't recognize him as its master.

Fortunately, probably due to the protection of Indra Otsutsuki's chakra, Sasuke didn't accidentally hurt himself throughout the entire process.

On the contrary, it was the opponent's timid and defensive red copper armor that allowed them to show off their power.

"Even if you keep dodging, it's useless, because this sword can also be used like this."

Erzhuzi, who had already formed a huge electromagnetic field on the stands, smirked. Although his control was not yet comparable to Kazama Kaoru's, he could improve over time.

By imbuing these iron filings with a strong magnetism, they become much easier to control.

With a gentle wave of his hand, the iron sand sword that had been thrusting straight at the red copper armor suddenly extended and bent, transforming into an iron sand whip.

Crimson Copper Armor, caught completely off guard, took the full force of the blow.

However, since his spirit was not corrupted by the cursed seal, Sasuke can still be considered a true inheritor of the Will of Fire. Although it is permissible to go all out in the arena, he will not excessively abuse his opponent.

Just as the iron whip was about to strike the opponent, the frequency of the vibration was reduced, and the direction in his hand was also controlled.

The Iron Sand Whip only managed to open a large gash in the opponent's chest.

Otherwise, the copper armor would probably have been cut in half.

This is a rather bloody scene, and it will probably scare away a lot of viewers.

Erzhuzi is here to show off, not to stage a bloody butcher scene.

"It seems the outcome is obvious. Save your breath, Uchiha Sasuke."

Genma Shiranui watched the battle end, then stepped forward and lifted the mask of the red copper armor to take a look. A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of the opponent's mouth, and there was a large gash in his chest. The opponent was also unconscious.

Erzhuzi was still standing there, full of energy, clearly indicating that he had won.

So he walked straight up to Erzhuzi, raised his arm, and announced that he was the victor.

The crowd erupted in cheers, almost deafeningly loud.

I don't know how Erzhuzi gained so many casual fans in just ten minutes.

It seems that the art of pretending to be something you're not is quite popular in the Naruto world, after all, the cultural backgrounds are different and there's no comparison.

"Idiot Sasuke, I didn't expect you to actually be capable."

In the original story, Sasuke, who was supposed to be sealed with the Cursed Seal by Kakashi, was actually not affected by the Cursed Seal, so he was leisurely chatting with his teammates with his hands in his pockets.

However, to be precise, it should be about enjoying the sense of superiority that comes from defeating one's opponent.

"Looks like it's time to teach him that move."

I remember that in the final one-on-one battle, Sasuke's opponent was Gaara, who was considered the strongest genin at that time.

The opponent possesses the Shukaku Shield, which claims to be the strongest defense. Although it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Shukaku, its defensive capabilities are indeed quite robust.

During his battle with Kimimaro, he was pierced by the opponent's supposedly hardest bone, but only a small part of it was pierced through.

Of course, this was also largely due to Kimimaro's near-death state at the time.

However, it does prove that the Shukaku Shield is quite effective in defense.

The principle seems to be that the hardest minerals in sand are combined with high-intensity chakra to form it.

Furthermore, spikes will appear on it to hinder the opponent's movements.

The fact that Sasuke was able to use Chidori Thrust without being affected by the spikes was largely due to the Sharingan's dynamic vision.

And because this move was released too suddenly, Gaara was unable to place an eye outside Shukaku's Shield.

Otherwise, Erzhuzi would have been strung together like a skewer.

In light of this, Kaoru Kazama felt it was better to leave the necessary piercing techniques to others.

An opponent like this should be defeated from a distance using a railgun.

As for the 50-meter range limit, the entire arena is only about 20 meters wide, which is enough even if Erzhuzi's power isn't that strong.

Little did Erzhuzi know that Kaoru Kazama was busy finding a successor for the Railgun, and was still watching the other people's battles with great interest.

Following him into the match was Shino Aburame, who usually had little presence in the game.

However, as it turns out, his strength is far more than it appears. Coupled with a considerable level of combat intelligence, he can be considered an official candidate to play dumb and outsmart others.

His opponent was Zaku, a ninja from the Sound Village who had previously fought against Erzhuzi in the Forest of Death.

The special move seems to be blowing a considerable amount of wind through a small hole in the palm of the hand.

When fully powered, it's comparable to a C-rank Wind Release ninjutsu.

Although the effect was good, it was a bit too monotonous.

It's just a human-shaped electric fan with a relatively high power output.

When facing Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Claw Crimson, he simply extinguished the flames attached to the shuriken, but he still had to endure countless attacks from the shuriken.

That's about the limit of this move; it seems to be an unfinished experimental product of Orochimaru.

Software modification, chakra absorption, the nascent sound ninjutsu, and even a human electric fan.

Although they have a wide variety of uses, in terms of overall strength, they might not be able to defeat even one of the Sound Four, let alone Kimimaro.

He was destined to be a stepping stone for the Konoha Twelve to achieve fame.

However, despite saying that, Kaoru Kazama still admired Orochimaru's ingenious ideas.

At the same time, I gained some understanding of Snake's obsession.

Anyone who painstakingly researches so many ninjutsu techniques would feel a sense of resentment if they were still defeated by a single Sharingan.

If this resentment cannot be resolved through the core technology he excels in, then it can only be transformed into an obsession with the Sharingan that defeated him.

Just as Newton, after studying mechanics to its utmost extent, discovered that there were still many unsolved mysteries that could not be explained, he could only seek answers from an omnipotent God.

(In fact, Newton was always a theologian who firmly believed in the existence of God, not someone who turned to theology because his classical mechanics system was not progressing, as later generations have misinterpreted. After all, in those days, knowledge was in the hands of the church, and a large portion of intellectuals, especially highly educated ones, were believers.)

Chapter 617 The Blood Mystery of the Kaguya Clan

However, Kazama Kaoru didn't keep watching the restroom during the later matches. Instead, he took the opportunity to go to the restroom and had a female Uchiha replace him, sitting in a different spot than before.

He himself went to the underground laboratory of Training Ground No. 3.

Anyway, we can watch the broadcast through the eyes of our sisters and won't miss any details of the Chunin Exams.

I need to culture the Kimimaro cells and blood I just got from Orochimaru as soon as possible.

It looks like we're going to be playing all day today.

To select the final group for the final competition.

However, the finals don't determine whether you become a Chunin based on whether you win or not; rather, it depends on your performance during the match.

In other words, even if you fail, you might still become a Chunin.

However, perhaps because this year's Chunin Exams tested combat intelligence, only Nara Shikamaru became a Chunin throughout the entire exam.

Although he lost his battle against Temari due to exhaustion of chakra, his terrifying intelligence, which allowed him to calculate every single detail of the battle, still enabled him to successfully advance to the rank of Chunin.

Losing the exam but still getting promoted to Chunin, and even winning the heart of a beauty, wow, what a pro!

Looks like I'll have to teach Sasuke a lesson when I get back, so he doesn't learn from Naruto how to recklessly charge in without thinking.

Otherwise, even if they won, it would be difficult for them to become Chunin.

Naruto successfully defeated Hyuga Neji, and he even used a very clever strategy.

However, it is estimated that the Konoha leadership believes that if Naruto becomes a Chunin and leads a Genin squad on a mission, it might lead to the complete annihilation of the entire team.

After all, not everyone can have the protagonist's halo like Naruto.

The plan to destroy Konoha is probably only a few days away.

The one-on-one battles in the Chunin Exams will probably continue for a few more days.

Temari and Shikamaru spent the entire afternoon fighting.

At this pace, and with the genin engaging in hand-to-hand combat, if the preliminary rounds have 21 people and they need to select 8, it will probably take at least two days to finish.

So there should still be enough time, and she can try to make her debut under a pseudonym.

After all, given the chaotic state of the Konoha Crush plan, his identity might be blocked by that old codger Danzo.

He himself witnessed his old teammate, the Third Hokage, die in battle, so how could he let others cause trouble?

"Welcome back, Mom."

As soon as I entered the laboratory, I heard Christia's voice.

They even thoughtfully turned on the screen next to them, which was showing the Chunin Exams.

It can switch between different angles, which is quite user-friendly.

However, this also means that there are probably more than two Uchiha sisters in the entire arena.

And their positions are all better than his own; it's truly a sad story.

After changing into a white lab coat, Kaoru Kazama took out Kimimaro's blood and tissue, which he had obtained from Orochimaru, from his system space.

First, divide it in two, put one part in a culture medium, and put the other part directly under a microscope.

Then, the Kimimaro tissue cells were placed in a culture chamber, with a base quantity limited to three copies.

She now wanted to see what was so special about the blood of a user of the Corpse Bone Pulse.

Despite possessing formidable physical prowess, capable of easily defeating martial arts genius Lee, his body remains remarkably fragile.

Isn't physical skill all about having strong physical abilities?

Under an electron microscope magnified dozens of times, every minute detail in Kimimaro's blood can be clearly seen.

The red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are exactly the same as those of a normal person; there is nothing special about them.

But the serum is quite different.

After Kaoru Kazama purified it, she was surprised to find that the color was slightly grayish.

It has a cloudy feel to it, as if it has been seeped into by cement dust.
