Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

Lin Yu laughed and said, "As always, you show-off brat..."

Minato sat down: "Well, as expected of my son."

"Is that the son of Yellow Flash?!"

"Indeed extraordinary!"

"He's already way beyond the level of a genin..."

Referee Ebisu announced: "Neji Hyuga is disqualified due to interference from outside the court. Gaara wins! Rock Lee enters the court!"

Gaara, as if he had discovered a brand new continent, revealed a childlike, wicked smile: "Finally found... the sweetest blood!"

As he passed by, carrying a large gourd on his back, he said to Naruto, "Hurry up and finish this, I can't wait any longer..."

In the waiting area, Locke Lee squatted down, rolled up his trouser leg, placed the leg wraps with the word 'Rooted' written on them on the ground, and disappeared in a flash.

“Training with weight? How incredibly boring!” Sasuke said coldly, but he couldn’t resist his curiosity and went over to pick it up to test its weight.

"!" But just as Sasuke picked it up, the leg wraps slammed to the ground, nearly straining his back. His eyes widened in disbelief as he recalled the scene on the stairs that day when Lee did a handstand upside down on one finger. He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine: "Does he always wear this thing?! Damn it! This is outrageous!"

Standing before Naruto, Lee said in a resounding voice, "Naruto, I never expected to face the strongest of this generation here. Your courageous act just now is a model for us all!"

Naruto laughed and said, "It's not as exaggerated as you say. How could I just stand by and watch my comrades get killed?"

"Therefore, I, Locke Lee, will challenge you here, using my only skill honed through countless trials, my only true mastery of martial arts..."

"Ah! I accept your challenge!"

Ebisu stepped back to a distance and shouted, "Begin!"

A prelude to a powerful performance!

Whoosh! Lee launched a flying kick from the front with astonishing speed. Naruto crossed his arms to block and took a step back.

Lee stepped forward, pretending to sweep his leg, but taking advantage of Naruto's focus on his lower body, he suddenly changed his move and delivered a low kick that struck Naruto's chin.

"Ugh!!" Naruto was kicked into the air, with Lee following closely behind.

"Shadow Dance Leaf... Amazing!" Naruto exclaimed.

Lotus Flower!

Whoosh! Lee untied the bandages from his hands, bound Naruto's body, and spun him at high speed, causing him to crash violently to the ground upside down!

Dust flew everywhere, and potholes appeared on the ground!

Hokage's seating area: "That move definitely doesn't seem like something a normal movement could produce. Guy, you really did teach him those reckless techniques..."

Naruto sat up, feeling as if his body was falling apart with pain.

Lee, already ten meters away, said earnestly, "Naruto, you've been on the defensive ever since that started! Please take this duel with me seriously!"

Naruto laughed and said, "I understand. From now on, I'll get serious!"

Ninja Art: Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!

Boom! Boom! From within the smoke, Naruto's numerous shadow clones appeared, each conjuring a Rasengan in their hands: "Your speed is too fast. I think you'll easily dodge most ordinary ninjutsu. So, I'll use numbers to expand the attack range, making it impossible for you to dodge. This is a Rasengan. Just one clone hitting you will be enough to incapacitate you. Be careful..."

Naruto left a kind reminder, and all his clones rushed forward.

Seeing this, Xiao Li knew there was no room for jokes. He crossed his arms, green light enveloped his entire body, his skin turned red and burning hot, and his thick black hair stood on end, making him look extremely ferocious: "Teacher Kai, I think now is the time for me to uphold my ninja way..."

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Physical skills require years of honing. At this age, Locke Lee probably won't be able to open the fifth Gate of Death; the fourth Gate of Injury is his limit..."

really.

"Eight Gates Formation - Fourth Gate of Injury - Open!!!!!"

Xiao Li stretched out his arms and let out a thunderous shout.

Whoosh! Then the green storm swept in all directions, and Naruto's shadow clones were blown away by the storm before they could even get close...

The lone figure exclaimed in awe, "Wow, amazing... what kind of move was that?!"

"Naruto, now it's your turn to watch out!" Lee said, and then vanished from the spot in a flash.

"!!" Naruto hadn't even reacted before he received a heavy kick to the stomach: "Whoa!!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

Whoosh!! Lee flew forward, keeping level with Naruto, and then... his fists and feet, like a raging torrent, exploded on Naruto's body. The speed of the punches was so fast that they even created sonic booms!!!

The entire audience gasped in shock!

Sasuke was sweating profusely: "I can't keep up! My Sharingan... I can't keep up with his movements!!"

He knew exactly what this meant: if it weren't Naruto on the field right now, but him, defeat would be inevitable!

This reality dealt another blow to his pride. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, blood dripping onto his feet: "I...I...I don't admit it! I absolutely refuse to acknowledge someone who's only good at hand-to-hand combat!!!"

A series of earth-shattering physical attacks ended with the Lotus Flower, leaving a huge crater in the ground. Xiao Li suffered muscle damage and was half-squatting beside the crater, panting!

"Wow, amazing, such amazing taijutsu! When you were dancing, I had absolutely no chance to fight back..." Naruto, covered in wounds, stood up from the bottom of the pit, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and spoke the truth.

Lee seemed to know that the outcome was already decided, and solemnly said, "Naruto, this Eight Gates taijutsu is something I practiced diligently to break through Hachiman's Lightning Release Armor and Neji's Eight Trigrams Palm!"

Neji, who had already lost his eligibility and was watching from the rest area, felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this: This guy... is planning to use that kind of taijutsu on me!?

"Unfortunately, that was my limit just now, and I couldn't defeat you, Naruto. You really are... very strong!"

Thump! After saying these words, the green light on Xiao Li's body dissipated, and he lay on his back on the ground, unable to move!

Lee is very strong. He didn't lose to Naruto's ninjutsu, but to Naruto's ability to withstand blows!

Naruto stared intently at Lee and said, "But I believe this is not your limit. I look forward to fighting you again in the future!"

Wow!

Thunderous applause erupted from the stands.

Might Guy wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said proudly, "Lee, although you lost today, you will always be my proudest disciple..."

Despite his defeat, Rockley was carried off the field on a stretcher.

The four winners—Sasuke Uchiha, Yuuki Kobayashi, Gaara, and Naruto Uzumaki—were drawn by lot.

After the draw, the pairings were determined as follows!

Kobayashi Yuuki vs. Uchiha Sasuke!

Naruto Uzumaki vs. Gaara!

Ebisu announced loudly, "Kobayashi Yuuki versus Uchiha Sasuke, contestants, step forward!"

Chapter 280 Corrections from the Princess! (5/5)

Uchiha Yuki and Uchiha Sasuke, these two children who bear the name of Uchiha but have completely different backgrounds and experiences, finally face off on the field.

As for Sasuke, Yuki initially felt sympathy, but after witnessing his words and actions, all sympathy vanished. Although she didn't exactly hate him, she always wanted to find an opportunity to teach Sasuke a lesson and make him realize his true position!

Sasuke was unaware that Yuki was the daughter of the Shadow King from the beginning. He only thought that she was relatively outstanding among her peers. It wasn't until Yuki's recent performance that Sasuke truly realized that Yuki was a hidden dark horse with formidable strength.

Sasuke stared aggressively at Yuki: "No, it's not you. Among the genin of Ankaku Village, I am the strongest!"

Xue replied, "Is it really that important who is the strongest?"

Sasuke said decisively, "It's extremely important! This relates to my starting point as a ninja and my ultimate goal!"

Xue said indifferently, "I don't know what your purpose is, but I'm very unhappy with your way of doing things, especially your attitude towards the village and your companions. To be honest, I really want to beat you up and make you realize who's doing you this favor by being able to stand here like this..."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke laughed in fury: "Hahahaha, you mean you can defeat me here?"

"Heh." Xue also smiled, a faint smile, then she raised two fingers and formed a hand seal, like a ninja: "If you are also a disciple of Uzuki Yugao, you should know the etiquette before a ninja duel, right?"

"On the condition that I acknowledge you as a ninja who is on par with me!" Sasuke said coldly, refusing to perform the ninja salute to Yuki.

"I understand." Xue lowered her small hand.

Before the battle even began, the two were already showing signs of being evenly matched.

At that moment, Ebisu stepped back and loudly announced, "Begin!!"

Crack! Crack!

Sasuke could no longer contain himself. He charged forward like a wild horse, his hands rapidly forming hand seals.

Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Fireballs flew out of her mouth, covering not only the spot where Xiaoxue was standing, but also blocking her escape routes in all directions.

Xiaoxue remained calm and composed. She could tell what style Sasuke was using just by looking at his hand seals. The water-style hand seals were already formed the moment Sasuke spat out the first burst of flame.

Water Release: Water Barrier!

Whoosh! A large amount of water rose from the ground, extinguishing the balsam fire!

Sasuke frowned: "During the previous battle, she used Earth Release, Fire Release, and Wind Release... I didn't expect her to even have Water Release?"

How could he possibly know?

Xiaoxue possesses all seven attributes: lightning, earth, fire, wind, water, yin, and yang, but she will only use the most suitable ninjutsu at the most appropriate time.

*Sizzle!* Sasuke activated his Sharingan, rolled up his sleeve to reveal a summoning seal written on his arm, and summoned a large number of kunai and shuriken, hurling them at Yuki in a dazzling display!

This is one of Sasuke's hidden trump cards; his shuriken technique, combined with his Sharingan, is truly exceptional!

"!" This did indeed surprise Xiaoxue slightly. She did a backflip to dodge, and the moment she landed, she threw the kunai out while simultaneously forming hand seals.

Ninja Art: Shuriken Shadow Clone!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

The shuriken multiplied into countless forms, covering the sky and the earth!

"How could this be?!" Sasuke was suddenly horrified. He unleashed a powerful fireball forward to block part of the attack, and while retreating, he drew his ninja sword and swung it wildly. Clang! The sword shadows clashed, and he finally managed to block the torrent of shuriken that was raining down on him!

Crack! A flash of lightning, and Xiaoxue was already behind him.

"This... is Lightning Release: Body Flicker Technique!?" Sasuke exclaimed in shock once again.

Xiaoxue didn't answer him, and punched Sasuke in the face.

"Whoa~!!" Sasuke's facial muscles contorted in pain. "Damn it!!"
