Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

But just as the shadow suddenly straightened, Kimimaro took a step forward.

Shikamaru's pupils suddenly contracted and he froze in place.

Shadow imitation, failed!!

"Shh!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew from the front and Shikamaru looked up suddenly.

White bone blades, white loose robes, and white hair bloomed in the air at the same time.

Kimimaro had already arrived in front of him, incredibly fast.

The bone blade flew towards him, but Shikamaru tilted his neck back to avoid the attack.

At the same time, he flicked his right hand at his waist.

"Shh!"

The kunai was thrown out and hit Kimimaro who was close at hand.

The latter's eyes wavered, and he swung the bone blade in his hand, chopping it on the kunai.

"when!"

Sparks flew and the kunai was blown away.

But Shikamaru took advantage of this gap to fly backwards and get out of Kimimaro's attack range.

"His taijutsu is extremely oppressive!"

"Even better than that guy named Jūgo!"

Shikamaru thought to himself, his expression becoming extremely solemn in an instant.

"If you want to fight, you have to keep your distance."

"This is really troublesome. We must use our brains in this battle!"

"Otherwise, we will lose miserably!"

While he was thinking, Kimimaro in front of him was like a graceful dancer, but every movement was vague and carried a cold murderous intent.

"Shh!"

The bone blade brushed past his head, causing his hair to fall, and Shikamaru broke out in a cold sweat.

If the knife had been an inch shorter, the top of his head would have been blown off.

Shikamaru quickly retreated with his legs, putting some distance between himself and the other person again, a thin layer of sweat visibly appearing on his forehead.

"so close!"

The next second, Kimimaro's figure rushed over again.

He held the bone blade in one hand, his robe fluttering, and when he swung the blade, it was as if he was dancing, graceful and ethereal.

Shikamaru jumped up and down, totally unaware of his own miserable appearance.

Time goes by.

Everyone was watching this battle nervously.

About dozens of seconds later, the moment Kimimaro's feet landed on the ground, Shikamaru's eyes suddenly focused and he quickly formed seals with his hands.

"it's time!"

"Shadow Mimicry!"

In the shadow where Kimimaro landed, a long and narrow shadow instantly connected with him.

In an instant, Kimimaro's body shook and he stopped there.

"call!"

Shikamaru let out a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Finally, it worked!"

He had been hiding during the long battle, but he was also secretly observing the environment, terrain, and shadows in the venue.

Finally, under the intentional or unintentional guidance, the other party stepped into the shadow and completed the shadow imitation technique.

At this moment, there was a loud roar from the audience.

"so amazing!"

"It's hard to imagine seeing this kind of forbearance here."

"That boy's name is Nara Shikamaru, right? He's from the Nara family, and he's really good at playing with his brain!"

Waves of sound were heard.

A smile also appeared on Shikamaru's face. Completing the shadow imitation technique meant that the victory of this battle had been determined.

However, just as he was about to control the other party, his expression suddenly changed.

Kimimaro was seen holding a bone blade in his right hand and swinging it diagonally downwards.

"Shh!"

The linked shadows on the ground suddenly broke.

The whole place suddenly fell silent.

Chapter 569 Six Styles and Eight Gates

2024-06-01

Shikamaru paused and stared blankly ahead. He tried to control his shadow, but there was no response at all.

Suddenly, sweat dripped down his chin to the ground.

The figure standing calmly in front of him gave him an unimaginable sense of oppression.

The gap between the two sides has reached a point where it cannot be narrowed even if one uses their brains.

Kimimaro's expression remained calm from beginning to end, as if he had no emotion at all. He slowly bent his knees and then jumped up.

With his robes fluttering, he rushed towards Shikamaru.

When the latter saw this scene, his mouth moved, and finally he let out a long sigh and slowly raised his right hand.

"I surrender!"

Kimimaro landed, nodded and greeted Shikamaru, then the bone blade in his right hand dissipated in the wind and disappeared.

He turned around and walked towards the backstage.

"call!"

Shikamaru let out a long breath and looked at the other person's back with a complicated look in his eyes.

Genma Shiranui came to the field and announced the winner of this duel.

"Too powerful! This gap cannot be narrowed by tricks!"

"It's a pity for Shikamaru. His intelligence was used to the fullest in this battle, but he was facing an opponent who was far superior to him."

"An exciting fight, but is Kimimaro definitely still a Genin?"

"..."

There were constant voices of discussion, and a lively discussion began in the audience.

After waiting for a while, the next duel began.

"Uzumaki Naruto VS Inuzuka Kiba!"

As the list was announced, two figures entered the field.

"Oh? The Fourth Hokage's child?"

Fugaku, who was sitting on the podium, saw the blond child and asked softly.

"Well, he's Minato's son."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

"He doesn't seem to be having a very good time in the village."

At this time, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa spoke, his tone mysterious.

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned his head and glanced at the Fourth Kazekage, his expression unchanged: "Naruto is doing well."

Fugaku chuckled and said no more, watching the battle quietly.

He also knew some things that had happened in Konoha over the years.

After the Night of the Nine-Tails, there were a total of two orphans in Konoha.

One is his son Uchiha Sasuke, and the other is Uzumaki Naruto standing in the field.

The battle soon began.

What surprised people was that in this battle, Uzumaki Naruto showed incredible strength.

His sharp feeling and immense experience made it seem like an adult beating a child when he faced Ya.

In just three minutes, Naruto used the cover of his shadow clone to suddenly rush out from the ground and ended the battle with one punch.

"Pretty!"

Fugaku smiled and clapped his hands.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also a little surprised when he saw Naruto's performance at this moment, and he also applauded.

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa had a calm expression. His eyes gently fell on the face of the old man beside him, and then slowly drifted away.

"The winner is Uzumaki Naruto!"

Genma Shiranui raised his hand and announced loudly.

Then, it’s the next game.

"Hyuga Hinata VS Hyuga Neji!"

The confrontation among the Hyuga family aroused everyone's curiosity.

In this battle, Hyuga Neji won, which also made people feel the cruelty of the Hyuga clan being like a bird in a cage and the tragic fate of the branch family.

"Gaara vs Rock Lee!"

The duel list is basically the same as the original, but this battle is different.

Gaara slowly walked into the arena, followed by Rock Lee with bandages wrapped around his limbs.

"start!"

Genma Shiranui slashed his arm down.

In an instant, the battle began.

"Kai, did you really pass on the Six Styles to this kid?"

Kakashi looked serious and looked at the field solemnly.

His eyes first fell on Rock Lee, and then looked at Gaara.

There is no doubt that this boy from the Sand Village with fierce eyes and hidden violent aura has an extremely dangerous aura.

At first glance, he's the kind of cruel guy who's endured pain and loneliness for a long time, causing his personality to become distorted and twisted.

Fighting against such a person is extremely dangerous.

"Yes!"

"Although Xiao Li doesn't have much talent for learning ninjutsu, he is good at taijutsu."

When Kai said this, he showed his teeth and smiled confidently and brightly.

“He is an absolute genius!”

Kakashi was startled, but quickly reacted and sighed.

"You might as well say that he is a hard-working genius!"
