Ninja school teacher, I can become stronger by teaching...

This was completely different from what he had imagined. He had imagined the battle scene to be Kakashi rushing towards him at high speed, but the reality was that Kakashi was walking slowly without even drawing his sword.

In fact, Zabuza's initial guess was not wrong. Kakashi had wanted to kill Zabuza instantly with a flash.

But after a conversation, Kakashi gave up this idea. He wanted to completely defeat Zabuza and use his newly developed Thunder Flash.

Kakashi pushed his Thunder Breathing to its limit, greatly increasing his body's strength and speed. At the same time, he gathered a large amount of chakra in his legs and right hand, ready to explode at any time.

Kakashi tried hard to enter that clear and transparent world. He made many attempts in the past month, but all failed.

This time he failed as he expected, but Kakashi keenly noticed that although he failed this time, it was different from the previous times. He could vaguely feel something.

Kakashi felt a little relieved. After a month of hard training, he finally made some progress. As expected, he still had to fight.

Unable to figure out Kakashi's thoughts, Zabuza created a water clone and let it attack Kakashi, while his main body waited for Kakashi to reveal a flaw.

To intensify the feeling, Kakashi tried closing his eyes.

Seeing this, the water clone rushed forward.

Swish!

Kakashi drew his sword and slashed at an extremely fast speed, and instantly the water clone split into two and collapsed into a stream of water.

Zabuza, who was just about to rush forward, broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. He really couldn't understand Kakashi's operation. He killed him in such a fast speed even with his eyes closed.

Just when Zabuza was thinking about new tactics, Kakashi moved again, this time he was heading towards Zabuza.

Kakashi transformed all of the chakra he had gathered into lightning attribute chakra, and a dazzling yellow flash enveloped Kakashi's legs and right hand.

Yellow lightning passed from Kakashi's arm to the White Fang short blade in his hand. Under the effect of chakra, the short blade extended a lightning blade and turned into a katana style.

"Thunder Flash!"

Zizzi! !

boom!

At this moment, the lightning on Kakashi's body became more dazzling, and even the thick white fog could not cover its light. The audience could clearly see the yellow light exploding from the white fog, accompanied by the roar of thunder and lightning.

Zabuza didn't know how Kakashi discovered him. The moment lightning exploded on Kakashi's body, he wanted to dodge, but as soon as this thought appeared in his mind and his body had not had time to put it into action, his eyes were suddenly filled with yellow lightning.

Kakashi had already reached him and swung out his lightning blade.

"So beautiful." Looking at the dazzling lightning strike, this thought suddenly appeared in Zabuza's mind.

Boom! !

With a loud bang, the white mist on the field quickly faded and dissipated, and the audience could finally see the scene inside clearly.

Kakashi stood in front of Zabuza, holding a sharp blade wrapped in lightning chakra in his hand, with a calm expression on his face, as if he had done something very ordinary.

Zabuza faced Kakashi with the hilt of the sword in his hand, dozens of broken iron pieces of the sword blade under him, and a large pool of blood and charred marks on his chest.

What shocked the audience the most was that there was a long, narrow, charred slash mark next to Zabuza. Some people estimated that it was at least six meters long.

The next moment, Zabuza couldn't control the blood flowing from his mouth and fell to the ground.

"What kind of technique did Kakashi practice? I remember he didn't fight like this before?" Asuma widened his eyes as he looked at the marks left by Kakashi's sword.

He thought that Kakashi's swordsmanship was good in the past, but it was just slightly better than physical skills, which was completely different from now.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stroked his mustache and nodded. The Kakashi in front of him was even more dazzling than White Fang of the same age. Although their styles were somewhat similar, Kakashi had already found a path that suited him better.

Hoshigaki Kisame in the lounge looked solemn. He felt a huge threat from Kakashi.

Hoshigaki Kisame calmed down and looked at Might Guy. The semi-finals would be coming soon, and he had to defeat Might Guy first before he could meet Kakashi in the finals.

"As expected of my best friend, I can feel your passionate youth!" Might Guy clenched his fists, tears of emotion welled up in his eyes, and his desire to fight Kakashi grew stronger.

"Kakashi is such a pretentious guy!" Obito felt that Kakashi was doing it on purpose. He had a more energy-saving move but he insisted on using the strongest one, wasting his energy and chakra meaninglessly.

The thought that Nohara Rin might still be looking at Kakashi and Obito with shining eyes in the audience made him feel even more uncomfortable, and he vowed to beat Kakashi up in the semi-finals.

"Are you underestimating me? You're holding back again." Zabuza, lying on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood and said.

Although he was seriously injured, Zabuza knew that he was just affected by Kakashi's attack. Kakashi slightly deflected the direction of the attack and did not strike directly at him.

It was because Zabuza did not take the direct blow that he understood more deeply how powerful Kakashi was. Only a part of his strength was enough to break his new weapon and injure him at the same time.

If all this power were poured towards him, I'm afraid even Tsunade, known as the Medical Saint, wouldn't be able to be saved.

"I just feel that you will never be able to defeat me in your current state." Kakashi replied as he sheathed the White Fang short blade.

"You haven't understood what true strength is."

Zabuza was silent. He looked up at the blue sky. Kakashi was indeed qualified to say this now, because Kakashi only used a part of his slashing power to beat him without the strength to fight again, and he had no chance to counterattack.

"One day, I will stand in front of you again and defeat you." Zabuza said suddenly.

He is a person who never gives up. Even if Kakashi says he can't do it, he insists on doing it. No matter whether it is to change Kirigakure or to find true strength, he will do it. The worst thing in life is death. Because of Kirigakure's mission, he has passed through the gate of death twice, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Come on if you can," Kakashi said calmly.

"Hatake Kakashi wins!"

After seeing that Zabuza was just talking and not moving, Hiruhu quickly announced the end of the battle.

Soon a medical ninja rushed down and took the injured Zabuza away.

Lying on the stretcher, Zabuza had a lot of thoughts in his mind. He had suffered a lot of shocks during this trip to Konoha, but what made him most regretful at the moment was the battle with Kakashi just now.

He was defeated without even having to fight, and he felt that Kakashi would not like this kind of fight, so he felt regretful.

The last game of the second round ended and the venue entered the intermission time.

Although players can rest while other players are fighting, the pace of ninja fighting is too fast. It's okay in the first round because there are many people, but there are only four games in the second round, so they can't rest for long.

"Kakashi, what combat wisdom do you have? You could have solved it with less effort..." As soon as Kakashi entered the lounge, Obito started talking about the battle Kakashi had just fought.

"Isn't it possible to take revenge for the Death Forest?" Kakashi interrupted.

Obito had nothing to say. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with being ruthless when there was a personal grudge.

There were only four people in the lounge at the moment. Kakashi, Obito, and Might Guy were resting and chatting, while Kisame was sitting in the corner with his eyes closed, waiting for the exam to begin.

The audience ate snacks and discussed the strength of the remaining four contestants.

Up to now, it can be said that none of the four candidates are weak. Each candidate's performance is extremely strong. Hoshigaki Kisame can turn the battlefield into a water field, and Might Guy has exaggerated physical skills.

It's just that Naruto's technology hasn't reached that level yet. If there were online live broadcasts, after a short break, there would be hundreds or thousands of posts on the Internet tearing up the combat power.

"Hoshigaki Kisame vs. Might Guy! Candidates please enter the venue quickly." Oyari shouted after the break.

Might Guy smiled brightly and walked into the battle arena first, while Kisame opened his eyes and followed.

All the audience looked at the center of the venue attentively. This battle was very important for the joint Chunin Exam.

If Might Guy wins, it will mean Konoha's complete victory, and the next step will be the Konoha Ninja Civil War in the final.

If Hoshigaki Kisame wins, then even if Kirigakure loses in the finals, its basic face will be saved. After all, they are in the finals together and there is no problem in saying they are at the same level.

The audience in Konoha was cheering for Might Guy, and the Kirigakure ninjas were silently praying for Kisame in their hearts, hoping that Kisame could win the battle.

"You still remember me? This time I'm in top form and I won't lose again." Kisame smiled, revealing his shark-like sharp teeth.

Might Guy scratched his head while looking at Kisame's face. He seemed to vaguely hear Oyaku calling out the word "Hashigaki". Combined with his previous memory of a similar conversation, Might Guy figured out the name of his opponent.

"Hoshigaki Kamon, I will win again this time!" Might Guy said confidently.

Kisame looked at Might Guy with a puzzled look on his face. How come he didn't know who Hoshigaki Kamon was?

Kisame was convinced by Might Guy. It was bad enough that he didn't remember the name that Death Forest reported, but the referee had called his name three times today, one of which was just now. How could he have called it wrong?

"Are you doing this on purpose to provoke me so that I'll make a mistake?" Kisame thought he had figured out the reason why Might Guy did this.

He didn't expect that Might Guy, who had thick eyebrows, big eyes and strong limbs, would use provocation before the battle. This changed the image of Might Guy in Kisame's mind.

"The battle begins!" Beiluhu announced on time.

"Eight Gates of Ninjutsu: Open, open! Rest Gate, open! Life Gate, open!" Might Guy opened three gates in an instant, and the chakra in his body surged.

"Rock Breathing, full concentration!" At the same time, Might Guy changed his breathing and concentrated his breathing to greatly enhance his physical abilities.

Having fought with Kisame once, he knew Kisame's approximate strength, so he went all out without any test.

"Water Release·Exploding Water Wave!"

Knowing that Might Guy's physical skills were powerful, Kisame didn't dare to hesitate at all. As soon as Higurashi finished speaking, he quickly retreated and then formed hand seals and spit out a large amount of water towards Might Guy.

Might Guy jumped up to avoid the huge water flow, and then the whole place turned into a big pond, and Might Guy could only fight by stepping on the water.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

After using the Water Explosion Wave, Kisame immediately formed hand seals and used offensive water jutsu to condense a thick water dragon and smashed it towards Might Guy.

"Konoha's powerful whirlwind!"

Might Guy gathered his strength in his feet and kicked out a whirlwind kick with heavy force. With just one kick, he shattered the water dragon bomb, and the water splashed in all directions.

Might Guy, who is only about 1.3 meters tall, looks very small in front of the thick water dragon bullet. However, despite the huge size difference, Might Guy kicked the water dragon into pieces with one kick.

At this moment, the immense power of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu plus Rock Breathing was demonstrated to the fullest. Many ninjas watching the battle gasped when they saw this scene. This was a real head-on collision of physical skills and ninjutsu.

"Kai!" The old father Might Guy watched Might Guy kick the water dragon bullet into pieces and shouted Might Guy's name loudly. Might Guy's training from morning till night was not in vain, it was for this moment.

Shiranui Genma and Ebisu looked at each other and felt that the class division might have cost them a lot of luck. It was really great to have such a big guy in the team, which made them feel safer when doing the mission.

Even though he had fought with Might Guy once, Kisame's eyelids twitched violently when he saw Might Guy's powerful physical skills again.

Faced with Might Guy in this state, even Kisame, who was born with strength far beyond that of ordinary people, did not want to engage in a physical battle with him.

It's okay if he gets injured, but once he gets into Might Guy's offensive rhythm, he might not even be able to use his ninjutsu and will lose.

After kicking the water dragon bullet to pieces, Might Guy rushed straight towards Kisame. Due to his fast speed, ordinary viewers could only see a green light moving forward.

"Water Style: Great Explosion Water Wave!" Kisame, who originally wanted to consume more of Might Guy's physical strength, immediately mobilized all his chakra and released his ultimate move.

Last time, Might Guy defeated him with the huge water ball of Water Blast, so this time Kisame wanted to consume more of Might Guy's strength and then use this move to prevent the same mistake from happening again.

But Might Guy was in incredibly good shape, so Kisame had to release the Big Water Blast in advance, otherwise the next battle would be very disadvantageous to him.

The battle field is large for ordinary people, but it is very small for a physical master like Might Guy.

Kisame converted most of his chakra into water-attribute chakra, which turned into a stream of water, and a volume of water several times more terrifying than before spurted out of Kisame's mouth.

Might Guy immediately thought of the huge water ball in the Death Forest. He stopped running and quickly retreated.

He couldn't breathe underwater, and being trapped in the water rashly would put him in a passive position.

But Kisame did not spend this month in vain. He also trained hard for a month. Although it is not an exaggeration, he is still stronger than he was a month ago.

Kisame made use of the water flow of the Water Explosion Wave that he released at the beginning, and soon the water ball of the Water Explosion Wave became bigger and bigger, with a tendency to cover the entire battle field.

Although there is only one word difference, Exploding Water Wave and Big Exploding Water Wave are actually quite different.

Explosive Water Wave is similar to Water Array Pillar in that it creates a large amount of water to build a favorable environment for water-style ninjas, while Large Explosive Water Wave can create an extremely large and solid version of the Water Prison Technique.

Soon Might Guy found that he had nowhere to retreat, because Kisame's huge water explosion wave had a very large range and could cover the entire battlefield.

Might Guy took a deep breath. It was not difficult for him to hold his breath in the water for five minutes, but if he wanted to maintain the power of his breathing method, he had tried, and could only maintain it for one minute at most. That was to say, he had to defeat Kisame within this minute, otherwise, without the blessing of his breathing method, he might not be a match for Kisame in the water.

Might Guy increased his strength to the peak in one breath and then took the initiative to let the expanding water ball include himself in it.

Although the venue restrictions put him at a disadvantage, there was no such thing as retreat in Might Guy's dictionary.

Kisame's powerful water escape technique caused the audience to exclaim in surprise.

Many ordinary viewers found this very magical. It was clear that there was no container, but a water ball that did not leak could be formed.

Kakashi stared at the battle field. As a fellow breathing technique practitioner, he understood Might Guy's predicament at the moment.

Seeing Might Guy finally enter the water ball, Kisame smiled. His sharp teeth, combined with his face and body swimming in the water, made him look like a real shark.

"Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!"

As Kisame continued to mobilize his chakra, five sharks with bloody mouths appeared in the water and swam rapidly towards Might Guy.

This is the water-style ninjutsu that Kisame developed himself in the past thirty days. It is more suitable for him than the Water Dragon Bullet.

Kisame also had ideas for advanced development, combining some of the natural special features of his body, but because the time was too short, it was not developed.

Facing the ferocious shark, Might Guy was not afraid at all. He burst out with all his strength and rushed towards Kisame. The powerful chakra forced the water around his feet to retreat temporarily.

boom!

Might Guy punched the attacking water shark directly to death, and the terrifying force created waves in the water.

"It's stronger than it was back then." Kisame's expression changed slightly.
