Chapter 19 – Sparring (2)

  "Hoo. Dealing with giant objects, my ninjutsu is still somewhat cking," Haru seemed to be feeling the strain. With the assistance of the parasitic destruction bugs, his Water Whip had indeed Choji, but even with the current flowing through it, Choji hadn't been pulled down or paralyzed, immediately giving Haru a headache.

  "This skin is too thick," This was practically the first time Haru had encountered an opponent with such strong defense.

  Looking at Hinata and Inuzuka Kiba in front, the two of them were indeed suppressing Ino and Shikamaru, preventing the three from coordinating at all. Choji, on the other hand, was just a giant shell.

  Of course, even if Haru couldn't directly break through Choji, the main attacker in this area wasn't him. Shino's parasitic destruction bugs had already been deployed the moment Haru rushed forward. About ten minutes had passed by now. Logically, Choji's chakra should have been almost completely absorbed.

  Insect Jamming Technique: Insect Sphere!

  Shino seized the opportunity to activate his ninjutsu! The parasitic destruction bugs that had infiltrated Choji's body suddenly gathered rapidly, extensively blocking the chakra transmission pathways.

  Thump! Sure enough, before Choji even realized it, the chakra in his body had already become scarce due to his own consumption and the parasitic destruction bugs' absorption. Being forcibly disrupted from the inside by Shino like this, his body, unable to support itself, crashed down, and then his size shrank.

  "Sorry, Shikamaru," Having fallen down due to unnatural exhaustion, Choji still didn't forget to apologize to his teammates. Perhaps in his view, this failure was entirely his fault.

  "Choji... No, Ino! Let's try again!" Shikamaru couldn't bear to watch his best friend Choji be defeated so easily, so after a heavy blow forced back Kiba's Akamaru clone, he went to join up with Ino.

  Ino promptly retreated upon hearing his voice, and the two stood back-to-back, each facing their own enemy.

  "Ino, let's start. Quick!"

  At Shikamaru's command, he first adopted a horse stance, rapidly forming hand seals, and the shadow beneath his feet suddenly and unexpectedly rushed towards Kiba.

  Ino followed closely behind, suddenly turning and forming a heart shape with her hands towards Inuzuka Kiba.

  Secret Technique: Mind Body Switch Technique! It succeeded! Ino's body fell straight down, while Kiba's mind was now in a deep sleep. Akamaru couldn't discern the change in Kiba and continued to nuzzle him. At this moment, Ino controlled Kiba's body to approach Hinata at high speed, while Shikamaru's shadow also captured the dodging and weaving Hinata. Slowly, a pincer attack against Hinata, formed by Akamaru, Ino (controlling Kiba), and Shikamaru, took shape! If this continued, the situation might be reversed.

  Haru moved. His maximum speed.

  In that instant, he was even a bit faster than Inuzuka Kiba!

  Before Shikamaru could restrain Hinata, Haru flew over and struck down Akamaru, who was also leaping forward. Immediately after, his hands moved up and down in a blur, forming hand seals in the blink of an eye.

  Water Release: Water Whip! The ninjutsu that was useless against the enrged Choji was extremely effective for grabbing things from a distance here.

  Haru directly maximized his chakra output, and a slender whip shot straight towards Ino's body near a tree on the side.

  He caught her! A distance of more than six meters, and Haru pulled her over. Ino's body, without a soul, was useless, but it could stop the further offensive of Kiba, who was being controlled by Ino.

  "Miscalcuted. Alright, Haru. We surrender," Shikamaru's somewhat zy voice came out again. After confirming that he had no chance of winning, Shikamaru directly lost his fighting spirit.

  After all, it was just a friendly spar between cssmates; there was no need to be so serious. He wasn't a very motivated person to begin with.

  "Hoo. Ino! You controlling me was so uncomfortable! Do you even know how to use my body? How am I supposed to fight in that pose? Such a good body wasted on you!" As soon as Inuzuka Kiba regained control of his body, he began to compin to Ino. However, it seemed his focus was a bit off. He didn't even care that he was controlled, but instead cared about the other person's control...

  "Alright, let's first watch Naruto and the others' fight. We'll be fighting one of their teams soon," Haru didn't joke around with the other students but directly watched the fight that was happening nearby. Only one person was beside him: Shino, who was also watching the match.

  "Hmm."

  On the other side, the fight was still raging fiercely.

  "Naruto, one more time!" Concise and to the point, but there really wasn't any extra time for anything else.

  Shadow Clone Technique! Sasuke took the lead in using the Shadow Clone Technique, while Naruto, with the help of his shadow clones, used Air Walking again, waiting in the sky for Sasuke's attack. In such a stalemate, taking down just one person would fatally tip the scales of victory.

  "Before my Byakugan, all your tricks are useless!" Neji adopted the Gentle Fist starting stance, his palms held upright, his Byakugan wide open, searching for Sasuke's real body.

  "Found it!" Neji detected a slightly different chakra fluctuation and charged straight over, striking the vital point with a palm. With little chakra left, he naturally couldn't afford to waste any.

  However, bang!

  That was just an ordinary shadow clone, and that momentary chakra fluctuation was Sasuke's deliberate move. The real Sasuke, on the other hand, was approaching Neji at high speed from the side.

  He arrived.

  Leaf Shadow Dance! It hit! Neji, now in the air, was truly isoted and without support. Tenten, who provided ranged support and cover, was now entangled with Sakura, and the injured Lee couldn't effectively attack Sasuke.

  This fight would soon have a winner!

  "Damn it," Neji muttered inwardly, but still had no way out. To be honest, his maneuverability in the air was much worse than Lee's.

  "Got him! Shadow Clone: Naruto Four-Hit Barrage!" Three shadow clones plus the original body, four legs simultaneously struck Neji's abdomen, sending the just-ascended Neji plummeting back to the ground like a cannonball.

  But this wave of attacks wasn't over yet!

  "Naruto!"

  "Coming!"

  "Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!"

  "Wind Release: Vacuum Bullet!"

  One up, one down; one wind, one fire; one attack, one support. In the air, at Neji's position, a small fire dragon collided with a vertically descending wind sphere. And right there, they exploded, interacting with each other, tearing apart Neji in the center.

  "Whoa, these two little brats are ruthless," Saying this, Kakashi's brow furrowed slightly. Even now, he didn't have any particurly good way to resolve this major crisis for Neji.

  However, it seemed he wouldn't need to bother. Those uncontrolble Wind and Fire natured chakras simultaneously began to pull towards the same direction.

  "What's going on now?" The students naturally couldn't see any clues, but he had made his name in the ninja world based on his eyes, so how could he not understand? Thus, he hurriedly rushed over.

  "Yo yo yo, these little devils are a bit troublesome, but thankfully the young master has been fine all along. Hmm, someone's coming. Looks like I'll have to disappear for a bit," The strange, eerie voice of Yin and Yang completely vanished the moment Kakashi arrived.

  "It wouldn't be good to be discovered," In a colorful, kaleidoscopic space, the man muttered to himself.
