Konoha: On the night of the massacre, I summoned Inuyasha.

The instant Neji stopped his retreat, he slammed a kick imbued with astonishing chakra into the ground.

boom!

In an instant, Neji blasted a huge crater into the ground beneath their feet.

"Um?

No?!"

Neji's expression suddenly changed.

"Do you think I'm taking advantage of your eye-rolling perspective?"

Sasuke's sneer suddenly echoed from the crater he had just crashed into.

Then, Sasuke spun into a thunderous hurricane, hurtling towards Neji at incredible speed.

This is a variant of the Leaf Dragon God.

Sasuke lacked Rock Lee's absolute loyalty to taijutsu and never truly mastered the secrets of the Leaf Village Dragon God. However, he referenced the mystery of the Leaf Village Dragon God's infusion of lightning into the Moon God and developed a lower-budget version of the Moon God version of the Leaf Village Dragon God.

Its power even surpasses that of the Fang Wolf Fang!

The Byakugan's field of vision is naturally 360 degrees without any blind spots, but as a member of the branch family, Neji's Byakugan has a visual blind spot that extends 1° backward from the spine.

Having a general understanding of Sasuke's strength, Neji, after defeating Sasuke's attack with the Rotation Technique, naturally assumed that what had just been killed was merely a shadow clone of Sasuke.

The real Sasuke is definitely hiding in your blind spot, waiting for your weakness.

Surprisingly, Sasuke exploited Neji's defenses against his own weaknesses, creating an opportunity that was the opposite of what Neji had anticipated.

This wasn't a particularly clever tactic, but it exploited Neji's strange and subtle feelings about being a member of the Hyuga branch family and about the Byakugan.

"Damn bastard!"

Seeing Sasuke rapidly approaching, Neji cursed angrily.

However, Neji himself didn't know whether he was cursing Sasuke, himself, or even his own eyes...

Even more so, the main branch of the Hyuga clan.

"My weakness, my tragedy, the source of everything that Sasuke used against me!"

The main branch of the Hyuga clan!

Neji roared inwardly as he spun around again.

Then, the Thunder Hurricane collided directly with the Reverse Defense.

With a deafening roar, the hastily attempted "Return to Heaven" shattered, and Neji was sent flying, falling to the ground and temporarily unable to get up.

Soon, Sasuke landed in front of Neji, a faint smile on his face.

"Hmph, I won't be so careless next time."

Neji snorted coldly.

"hope so."

Sasuke sneered, but then extended a hand toward Neji.

Neji pursed his lips but did not refuse. He took Sasuke's hand and stood up.

In any case, the two have been friends for many years, so they would not turn against each other because of a single defeat in battle.

"The victor is Uchiha Sasuke!"

Kakashi called out lazily.

Soon, an Earth Release ninja arrived on the arena.

After a few Earth Release ninjutsu techniques, the arena was completely transformed.

"The second match: Uchiha Tsukuyomi vs. Gaara!"

Kakashi glanced at the battle schedule and read it aloud.

"This is the ultimate battle between Konoha and Sunagakure!"

A murmur quickly broke out in the stands.

"I know Uchiha Tsuki, he is one of the last survivors of the Uchiha clan."

I heard he's known as a hero of Konoha, and his strength is far greater than that of Uchiha Sasuke from before!

Some people proudly showed off their knowledge.

"Humph!

Gaara of the Sandfall of the Land of Wind is no pushover either; that's the Kazekage's...

son!"

Another well-informed spectator from the Land of Wind snorted coldly.

Although he didn't like monsters like Gaara, he naturally couldn't lose face when facing other nations.

On the stage, Yue had already leaped down from the high stands.

His dashing posture immediately drew screams from a group of middle-aged women and young girls.

Gaara, on the other hand, crossed his arms and slowly floated down from the sky, stepping on the sand. His style was far superior to Yue's.

However, with his gloomy expression and appearance that was far less handsome than Yue's, this brat was naturally no match for Yue's popularity.

"Go, Moon Lord!"

"Lord Yue will surely win!"

"Your Highness Moon is the number one ninja in the world!"

The instant the moon fell into the arena, countless young girls and lolis rose up in the audience, waving their flags and shouting themselves hoarse.

The banner was covered with phrases like "I love Yuejun" and "Yuejun is the most handsome," which was incredibly irritating to the eyes of the male members of the group.

Clearly, these young girls had been preparing for a long time.

In particular, outgoing girls like Ino and Hana jumped directly to the edge of the audience stands and shouted loudly.

This made Naruto, who had originally planned to cheer for Yue, sit back down with a look of utter dejection.

He began to curse angrily, his face full of resentment.

"Damn it, even Sakura is like that."

Does being handsome mean you can do whatever you want?!

Naruto looked at Sakura, who was shouting and yelling. The pink-haired little girl was completely inconspicuous among the group of girls.

However, this made the pale-faced youth even more heartbroken, and for a moment he didn't even want to watch the battle.

"Being handsome means you can do whatever you want!"

"It's Kiba's older sister, Inuzuka Hana, who's standing next to her. She said it casually, and then quickly cheered for Tsuki.

Beside her, a group of dogs barked loudly, especially Akamaru, who barked at the top of his lungs.

For a moment, the barking of dogs even drowned out the cheers of the girls in this area.

"Damn it, Moon!"

Naruto looked up at the sky and sighed, feeling incredibly envious. This guy doesn't even spare dogs!

In the arena, Gaara was looking at Yue with a gloomy expression, especially at the little Devimon on Yue's shoulder who looked bored.

As a ninja beast, it can naturally fight alongside its master.

"I will defeat you all, including your ninja beast!"

Gaara stared intently at Devimon, his tone cold and menacing.

"Okay, keep it up!"

Yue simply rolled her eyes at Gaara and said something completely insincere.

"However, compared to the battle between us."

Actually, you and Naruto are a better match.

Suddenly, Yue seemed to remember something and glanced at Naruto, who looked utterly dejected in the stands.

Then Yue, with a smile on her face, waved to the audience in the stands.

Immediately, an even louder cheer resounded throughout the stands, prompting a group of male spectators to reveal expressions of envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"It seems that Yue-kun is quite popular?"

In the stands, behind the Third Hokage, Jiraiya watched the cheers from the crowd with envy.

"Yes, it reminds me of Minato."

The third generation nodded somewhat sadly, but his tone carried a hint of relief.

"Watergate..."

"That guy was kept under Kushina's watchful eye, but he was nowhere near as promiscuous as that brat Uchiha Tsuki."

Jiraiya felt a little disappointed, but he quickly laughed, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Go, Moon Lord!"

Suddenly, Jiraiya seemed to hear something. He subconsciously glanced at the source of the sound, where the Fifth Mizukage was sitting upright, as if the sound was not coming from there at all.

Jiraiya couldn't help but roll his eyes, feeling even more envious and jealous.

"Enough with the nonsense."

I'll defeat you, I'll even kill you!

This will probably make that guy in the stands happy..."

Gaara's voice sounded somewhat distorted and resentful. The next moment, he waved his hand, and a huge wave of sand immediately rose from the earth, sweeping towards the moon.

"Mother……

You'll be happy too!

Ha, ahahahaha…
