I'm in Konoha, I have ten skill bars

Gaara was slightly stunned.

He suddenly turned around and looked at Shigure in the stands.

"At this distance... he actually..."

Shi Yu leaned against the wall, forming a seal with one hand, his fingertips still emitting cold air...

Ice Escape~Freezing Moment!

Freezing objects in the range through mid-air, even instantly, is not a problem at all. The distance is only thirty or forty meters.

Bang bang!

The ice ball fell from the air and hit the ground, and the ice broke instantly.

But sand also fell.

In the middle, Shikamaru was lying on the ground shivering, with bruises all over his body, obviously caused by being squeezed by a terrifying force.

Asuma picked up Choji who was lying on the ground and looked up at where Shigure and Kakashi were.

He nodded slightly.

Kakashi responded.

Turning to look at Gaara, "He's always ready to kill you. This kid from Sunagakure is very murderous!"

"Freezing through the air, this ninjutsu is incredible!"

Kakashi's focus is on Gaara, but everyone else's focus is on Shigure.

Being able to freeze something instantly at such a long distance, this ninjutsu is truly terrifying.

Even Asuma was unable to do it in time, but Shigure, who was still a Genin, did it easily.

Although he relied on the power of bloodline limit, it is also amazing to be able to develop his bloodline limit to this level.

Xihi Kurenai's gaze fell on Shigure again.

Laymen just think it's cool, but as a jonin she knows very well what it costs to achieve such an effect.

First of all, the amount of chakra is the most basic and also the most helpless point. If you don’t have a chakra amount far exceeding that of an ordinary ninja, it cannot be done.

Secondly, if the control of chakra and the nature of the bloodline limit cannot reach a certain level, it will be of no use even if the amount of chakra is sufficient.

It seems that Shigure wasn’t serious when he fought Rock Lee before.

If this ninjutsu is used right from the start to freeze Rock Lee instantly, the opponent will probably have no ability to fight back at all!

Kai also realized that Shi Yu had already shown mercy to his disciples before.

Otherwise, Li’s battle would result in an instant defeat!

Swish! ! !

Suddenly, Gaara, stepping on the sand, floated up from the center of the field.

Glaring at Shigure.

The sand behind me is surging wildly!

Sasuke and Naruto frowned and moved closer to Shigure's side! .

Chapter 142 Secret Techniques to Enhance the Ice and Snow World

"why?"

"Why save him!"

Just when Gaara seemed to be about to get angry, I suddenly heard Gaara ask this question.

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

Shigure rescued Shikamaru. Does he need any more reason?

As ninjas from the same village, isn't it right for us to help each other?

But Shigure understood Gaara's thoughts. It was obvious that Choji was so weak and not worth saving at all, but Shigure still saved him.

This puzzled Gaara very much. Why would anyone be willing to save such a worthless thing?

Sasuke and Naruto also felt that something was not right about the issue with Gaara!

"answer me!"

boom! !

The sand behind him was surging even more violently, and even from the cracks in the floor, sand kept flying out and gathering behind Gaara.

Everyone frowned when seeing this scene.

Hayate: "This is the Chunin Exam, Ninja from the Sand Village, please stay calm, or you will be disqualified from the Chunin Exam."

However, Gaara didn't listen to Hayate's warning at all.

Instead, he continued to stare at Shi Yu.

Naruto: 12 "Hey, why are you so arrogant? Choji is our comrade, what's wrong with Shigure saving him?"

companion?

Gaara was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Shigure slowly stood up and looked up at Gaara in the air.

"That's right, because he's my comrade, I have to save him!"

Choji, who still had some consciousness, smiled when he heard Shigure's words.

"Companions?"

Gaara's sand gradually subsided, some of it returned to the gourd, while the rest of it fell out.

This sudden exposure and sudden calmness were so fast that all the Jounin in Konoha were confused.

Could it be that this little devil from Sand Village has something wrong with his brain?

Shigure looked at Gaara who was thoughtful and shook his head helplessly. What a problem child of Sand Village!

Speaking of which, Gaara's childhood was much more miserable than Naruto's.

Mingming, as the son of Fengying, not only did he not receive the fatherly love he deserved, but he was also tortured madly by his father.

Although it was for Gaara to become stronger, in Shigure's opinion, the Kazekage is not a qualified father.

[Great Sage: Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a new skill, Sand Technique]

[Sand Technique: A ninjutsu that uses chakra to control sand. Chakra can be used to increase the strength of the sand, while controlling the sand to change into various forms for attack or defense. It can be performed without the need for hand seals.]

Sand technique!

As expected, Gaara's technique is not a blood succession limit but a secret technique.

This secret technique should have been learned from Shukaku, the one-tailed beast.

"How does the Great Sage's Sand Technique compare to my Ice Release - Ice and Snow World?"

[Great Sage: There is an essential difference between the two. The Sand Technique uses chakra to control the sand, and can enhance the power of the sand with the power of chakra, making the sand have a defensive ability comparable to that of steel.]

[Great Sage: The host's ice and snow world has the chakra property changes of ice escape. The ice and snow created are controlled by chakra, but the hardness of the ice and snow itself cannot be enhanced. Although the property changes of ice escape can be used to enhance the power of the ice and snow itself, the principles of the two techniques are completely different.]

completely different?

Shigure's ice and snow world was developed based on Gaara's abilities.

How could it be completely different?

[Great Sage: Due to lack of data when developing skills, I only relied on the host's memory effect for calculation and development, so the effect is similar but the principle is different]

"So which one is better, my jutsu or Gaara's sand jutsu?"

[Great Sage: Sand Technique is Better]

[Cause]

[1: Consuming less chakra can achieve stronger attack or defense]

[2: Sand control speed is faster]

【3: Wider range】

How could his technique be so much better than mine?

"Great Sage, can you integrate the Sand Technique into my Ice Release ~ Ice and Snow World?"

[Great Sage: Of course]

[Analysis and calculation in progress]

[Estimated completion time: 1 hour]

Can it be completed in an hour?

Very good, the preliminaries here will probably last for several more hours!

I could still wait for an hour.

As for the following qualifying battles, since a large number of Genin passed this time and it was a fight between some unknown ninjas, Shigure had no mood to pay attention to it.

The reason for staying here is just to let the great sage analyze more ninjutsu.

However, during the following calculation time, the great sage did not have the extra time to analyze these ninjutsu.

Shigure also looked down upon the ninjutsu performed by ordinary ninjas.

During this period, Naruto and Sasuke had another match, and both of them successfully advanced to the finals as if in sync.

Gaara and Temari also advanced.

Just like in the original, the battle between Sakura and Ino also begins, but this time the relationship between the two is not as tense.

Perhaps it's because Ino and Sakura are no longer competitors.

But it ended in a draw and both players lost the qualification.

Shikamaru used his brain to successfully complete two battles.

Interestingly, Gaara’s second opponent was actually Neji. Although Neji was very powerful, he was completely helpless against Gaara.

The soft fist technique is indeed very powerful, but Gaara's sand technique is even stronger and more difficult to deal with.

At this time, Shi Yu was no longer paying attention to the game. Instead, he closed his eyes and carefully felt the ice escape that the great sage had optimized for him.

New technique 603!

[Great Sage: Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new skill, Ice Escape ~ Ice and Snow Control]

Ice Escape~Control of Ice and Snow!

Combining the advantages of Gaara's Sand Technique, Shigure's ice and snow manipulation can directly control the ice and snow, and use chakra to enhance the strength of the ice and snow.

Make a small snowflake as hard as steel. Of course, to achieve this level, the consumption of chakra is like a flow.

Gaara's Sand Technique can only change the external appearance through chakra.

However, Shigure's manipulation of ice and snow can even change the internal structure by changing the nature of ice escape.

That is the inherent power of ice and snow.

As long as the property change is strong enough, even a snowflake can easily freeze an enemy.

Sand Technique is just about controlling and strengthening! After all, Gaara doesn't create sand directly.

However, Shigure now not only controls and strengthens, but also uses Ice Release ~ Freezing Moment to directly create ice and snow.

The two are not the same.

While Shigure was carefully feeling the power of the upgraded ice escape ninjutsu.

The finalists for the Chunin Exams have also been announced.

In Team 7, Shigure, Naruto, and Sasuke all advanced to the finals.

At the same time, the other ninjas of Konoha include Shikamaru, Shino and Hinata.

Including Gaara and Temari, there are still only eight finalists! .
