The battle ended suddenly, a development that many people did not expect.
Especially Cai's sudden attack that defeated her opponent made people's expressions constantly change, revealing strange emotions.
Everyone is starting to make plans. If it were them, if they were to take that move, would they still be able to stand firm on the stage?
Even Choji, who had grown in size, was blown away by that blow, like a kite with its string broken.
"Hmph, this guy is quite powerful."
Although he still looked relaxed and carefree on the surface, Kankuro's eyes had become serious, showing a strong look of fear.
Tell him directly that if he resists such an attack, even the puppet he is proud of will be defeated in an instant and become a pile of useless waste.
Such an attack was seriously beyond what he could bear.
"I didn't expect that there is such a guy among the genin of the Demon Country. I'm afraid only Gaara can deal with him."
Temari also frowned.
To be honest, she was also frightened by Cai's heavy blow.
If he were on the field, he might not end up any better than that Konoha ninja. At most, he could hold on for a while and then quickly collapse.
Not only the power, but also the speed is amazing. He was a ninja with terrifying melee combat abilities that she hated very much.
"It can only be said that the tiger father has no dog son. When you meet him, it is better to be careful."
As the guiding jounin of Temari's trio, Maki also gave the same comment, with a slightly solemn look on his face.
Even a Jonin like him couldn't ignore such a terrifying attack.
Rather, it is impossible to ignore anything related to the Hyuga clan's soft fist.
The main purpose of this family's soft boxing is to attack the inside of the opponent's body, rather than focusing on superficial damage.
In Maki's view, the external injuries of the Konoha genin who was knocked out were only secondary. The real reason that made him fall to the ground and passed out was probably because his body was severely damaged internally and he could not bear the pain. It's this kind of pressure that makes it look like this.
After Onigashima Shinobi announced the result, Aya walked towards the observation deck as calmly as when she came down. While walking, he glanced at his mother Ayane and found her expression of approval and satisfaction towards him. Aya was slightly happy, but on the surface he still walked calmly, without letting outsiders notice. His emotions come.
"Well done, now you can scare the ninjas from other countries."
Asuka said with a smile to Sai who returned.
"The opponent's starting move is too long. If he can master that kind of secret technique, there may be some twists and turns."
Cai responded.
The Akimichi clan's doubling technique is very special, especially after extracting Yang attribute chakra, the hardness of the body will rise linearly, and it will have a strong resistance to blows.
But it also means that it is very difficult to condense such a huge Yang attribute chakra, and it is not something that Genin can do.
If Choji can use the doubling technique more skillfully and complete the prelude to doubling in a short time, then Aya believes that the battle will not end so easily.
The Akimichi clan's doubling technique goes beyond simply increasing the volume.
Choji fell in the pit of the auditorium. His body was shrinking. He was carried down on a stretcher by the medical ninjas from the Kingdom of Ghosts and went to the medical room of the club for treatment.
"It's really bad. Now I'm the only one left in our team."
Shikamaru said pessimistically, holding his head.
Not only that, Ino and Choji who played were all defeated by their opponents and lost the qualification to participate in the official competition.
If even he was eliminated, it would mean that Asuma's team would be completely wiped out in this Chunin Exam.
He had thought before that no matter how good his team was, one person should advance.
In his eyes, the candidate for promotion has always been Choji.
Among the three of them, Choji has the highest combat effectiveness and often serves as the attacker in the team.
Inoji's turning technique and the shadow imitation technique he currently masters both have some limitations, that is, it is not easy to hit the opponent.
Moreover, even after hitting the enemy's body, it may not be able to kill the opponent cleanly.
Because he has not yet mastered the secret techniques of the Nara clan that allow shadows to have physical attack capabilities.
If he had known this, he shouldn't have been lazy... Shikamaru sighed in his heart, feeling like a book is only used when it is used, but it was too late to cram it now.
He is the only one left in Asuma's team, so he hopes to be matched with a relatively easy opponent.
If your luck is really bad and you are matched with the Gourd Baby from Hidden Sand Village and the weirdly capable miko from the Kingdom of Ghosts, you might as well just give up.
These two monsters feel like they can't win even if they use all kinds of tactics.
Because the gap in hard power is so great, no matter how sophisticated the tactics are, they have no place to be used.
"I didn't expect Choji to win the game even with barbecue. Shikamaru, the rest is up to you."
Asuma took a puff of cigarette and encouraged Shikamaru who was in a pessimistic state.
"Hey, Asma, don't put such a heavy task on my head. I'd better wait until next year."
Seeing Shikamaru who simply chose to lie down, Asuma didn't know what to say.
This year's Chuunin exams haven't ended yet, and I'm thinking of starting the make-up exam next year... Isn't this too pessimistic?
"Asma, it seems that the students you train are not very good."
Jonin Yuhi Kurenai heard Shikamaru's words and joked with Asuma.
Asuma continued to smoke, and for some reason, his eyes suddenly turned dissatisfied when he looked at Shikamaru.
If you can't pick up girls on your own, what does it have to do with me? Shikamaru looked at Asuma's slightly reproachful look and complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
In the team, he has the closest relationship with Asuma compared to Choji and Ino.
Because Asma is not only a smoker, but also a chess enthusiast, and often drags him to play chess together.
He currently knows more about Asma.
After all, the other party is also in his twenties. If he doesn't consider finding the other half of his life, he will become an old man that no one wants.
Asuma's target was obviously the young, beautiful, and outstanding Yuhi Kurenai Jonin.
Because among jounin, female jounin is a scarce resource, especially the fact that they are young and beautiful is a bonus.
"Shikamaru, if you lose the game, after you go back, I will adjust your weekly training volume to three times the original amount."
Asuma said this calmly.
Shikamaru looked at Asuma with horrified eyes, three times the amount of training before?
This guy is scarier than the devil.
Didn't we encourage them to release their own nature and make do with training matters as long as they can pass?
With Asuma becoming so serious, Shikamaru had to sigh that this is the charm of love.
But when he thought that he was the one who got hurt, Shikamaru became depressed.
A woman who falls in love is unreasonable, and a man who falls in love is equally unreasonable.
"Rather than this, I think it would be better for the two of you to take a look at the next contestants.
Kakashi's voice intervened, temporarily relieving Shikamaru.
After hearing Kakashi's words, Asuma and others turned their attention to the electronic screen.
I saw the name of the new duel appeared on the electronic screen: Hinata (Konoha) and Kiribeda (Ghost).
Seeing this scene, Hong's eyes widened slightly.
"Hinata..."
She looked towards Hinata, worry almost overflowing from her eyes.
"It's your turn, Hinata."
Ya said to Hinata carelessly.
Shino, who had remained silent, also said: "Be careful, Hinata, my bug told me that my opponent's strength is terrible."
In fact, Shino wanted to say that if it doesn't work, it's best to surrender.
But thinking of Hinata's soft-spoken personality, saying this would hurt her self-esteem, so she had no choice but to tactfully express that her opponent was very strong and she would not be embarrassed even if she lost.
"Well, I get it."
Hinata said in a soft voice.
"Be careful. When you are unable to do anything, give in quickly."
As Hinata walked down, Neji's voice came, sounding very strict.
"Brother Neji..."
Hinata looked at Neji blankly.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Are you looking down on Hinata? Fortunately, you are still Hinata's cousin."
Ya suddenly couldn't bear it anymore. When he heard that Neji seemed to be hinting Hinata to surrender quickly, he immediately glared at Neji.
"I am not only Hinata-sama's cousin, but also a member of the branch family. I am just protecting Hinata-sama in the branch family way."
Neji can understand the anger towards Kiba, but understanding is understanding. Sacrificing himself to protect Hinata is also a task given by the family.
Although he was also struggling with whether such a thing was right or wrong.
But after comprehensive consideration, he believed that it would be a good thing for Hinata to surrender as soon as possible.
"What are you doing? What Ya said is absolutely true. As an elder brother, how can you make your sister surrender? You are too incompetent."
Naruto seemed a little unable to accept Neji's dissuasion and supported Kiba's point of view.
Although the two of them usually don't deal with each other very much, at this moment, they actually recognized each other.
Although Kibaya hoped that Hinata would not be harmed, he knew that advising Hinata to surrender would cause a huge blow to Hinata's self-esteem. As a companion, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
"This is not a matter of good taste...this is the responsibility of the separation family. Forget it, for people like you, you won't understand no matter how I explain it."
Neji glanced at Naruto and said.
"You didn't say anything, how do you know I can't understand?"
Naruto's anger surged, he hated people who pretended to be profound.
He didn't say anything, didn't explain anything, and still wanted others to agree, which made Naruto very unhappy.
"Because of your single-minded behavior, I can't believe that your brain can think about such complex things."
Neji told the truth.
Although he needs to maintain the care of an elder brother and the humility of a subordinate in front of Hinata.
But in front of outsiders, he doesn't need to be like this.
When Naruto heard Neji's words, his blood pressure suddenly rose for some reason.
If it wasn't for the occasion, he would definitely go up and fight Neji for three hundred rounds to vent his anger.
"Hinata, don't listen to him. Just let this guy throw his own assumptions aside. If you have any ideas in your mind, just do it. I believe you can do it!"
Weitian's face turned slightly red at Naruto's encouraging glance, and then he nodded.
"I know, I will work hard. Then, I'm going down, Naruto-kun."
With that said, Hinata took a deep breath, her face returned to calm, and she walked towards the stage below.
"You really like to meddle in other people's business. Don't you know that doing so will make Hinata-sama bruised and bruised?"
There was anger in Neji's tone.
You haven't fought before, so how do you know that Hinata can't do it? After all, you don't know Hinata at all. "
Naruto stared back not to be outdone.
"No, I understand Hinata-sama's temperament very well. Because of this, I don't want her to get hurt because of these insignificant things. Anyway, there are a lot of people who work for her, and I am just one of them."
When he said this, Neji was filled with deep resentment.
This kind of resentment is not against Naruto, but against the clan, and the branch family, there is also resentment.
The destined life made Neci feel confused about his future for the first time.
Carrying out a programmed life like a machine was definitely not his original intention.
The clan and branch families should be born equal.
I don't understand what you are talking about at all, why do you have to work hard for Hinata? Moreover, aren't you Hinata's brother? Why are you called Hinata-sama? "
Naruto was surprised by this.
Although he is Hinata's elder brother, but he calls Hinata "sama", I always feel that the relationship here is a bit weird.
"Since you don't know, then don't ask any more questions."
Neji snorted, there was no need to reveal the scar to outsiders.
At this moment, he seemed to feel something, and there was a strange sight staring at him.
He turned his head and looked towards the auditorium opposite.
He found that the person looking towards him was a young woman about twenty years old.
Wearing white clothes, a traditional princess haircut, and matching eyes, she has the image of a traditional female of the Hyuga clan.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the other person seems to be observing me, as evidenced by the faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
who is she?
Neji had this question.
There was nothing about this woman in his mind.
Then he thought that there were some traitors in the Hyuga clan who betrayed the family in the past and came to the Kingdom of Demons to settle down and gradually stabilized.
Is it one of them?
But the appearance seems a bit too young.
Teacher Kai, who is that woman? "
Neji asked Kai cryptically.
Kai touched his chin and replied: "I think you have already learned about the defection of the Hyuga clan in the past when you returned to the clan.
Although it's a bit incredible, her appearance is still the same as before, without many obvious changes, but you should have heard of her name - she is Hinata Ayane. "
As a female ninja of the same generation as his teacher Uchiha Suri, and also a genius jounin from a wealthy family, Kai still knew some inside information about this, although he didn't know much.
Because the impact of that defection incident was so great that it directly affected Konoha's situation in the Third Ninja War. Even a Jonin like him kept it secret and it was not convenient to talk in the village.
Even the older Konoha ninjas are familiar with this, and only the new generation of ninjas know nothing about it.
is her!
Neji's eyes widened in surprise.
He never thought about this matter because according to the information he obtained, Hinata Ayane was nearly twenty years old when she defected to Konoha.
Now seventeen years later, the other party should be thirty-six or seventeen years old... Ningji never imagined that a woman with such a young appearance would be a woman in her thirties on the inside.
"The eldest lady of the Zong family, it seems that the battle will be over soon."
In the audience, Ayane retracted her gaze from Neji and turned to look at the two girls on the field who were about to start a duel.
Her tone was full of disdain for Hinata.
"Indeed, for a miko who has mastered the three techniques of subduing gods, even a white eye is not easy to deal with."
Even if the Zong family rolled their eyes, Baishi also denied it.
Any blood-inherited ability depends on the user.
The same blood inheritance limit will exert different powers in the hands of different people.
He could see that Hinata's own ability was still too immature.
It is difficult to defeat a miko who uses the art of subjugation with such a half-hearted eye roll.
Different from the chakra system, the source of miko lies in the main line of miko.
The witches of the main line have the power to reverse time and space. They can not only predict the future, but also use their huge witch power to reverse the flow of time and space within a certain range.
The power of imprisoning monsters and sprites comes from this, banishing them to the end of time and space, which is a realm beyond the reach of mortal life. Although the witches of the branch line do not have the main line of witches, which can control time and space, they can also participate in I have learned many different witchcrafts.
For example, the art of seance.
Although this kind of divine subjugation technique does not summon the real gods to bless oneself, but uses the purified parts of various monsters suppressed by witches in the past to use witchcraft to bless oneself. Use the monster's abilities to fight.
It is very rare for a witch to be able to use two kinds of divine techniques. Most witches can only use a single divine technique.
It is very rare for a shrine maiden like Xiangwuzhi to master three kinds of divine qualities at the same time.
In addition, the other party seems to be very enthusiastic about fighting. The representative of the miko who belongs to the Bujodo sect is currently serving the military and joins this exam as a temporary substitute.
On the stage, two girls stood face to face.
Unlike the nervous Hinata, the miko named Hibikigirue has a very calm face, but it is precisely because of this calmness that it makes people feel scared.
His eyes were closed tightly. If he hadn't noticed that the other person's eyes were always locked on her, Hinata would have doubted whether the other person was blind.
"You two, please start."
Seeing the two girls getting ready, Onigashima Ninja announced that the fourth round of battle had officially begun.
Hinata opened her eyes without hesitation, with bulging veins next to her eyes, and stared at the miko in front of her with a sharp look.
Although she knew that most people were not optimistic about her fight, she didn't want to give up here.
Sometimes she also admired Naruto's character of speaking directly when he had something to say, and wanted to be that kind of person. However, no matter what she did, it seemed that she would only disappoint people.
The elders of the clan and the father of the family are no longer as strict as before, as if they are completely disappointed in themselves.
Naruto-kun, Neji-nii, Kiba, Shino, Kurenai-sensei, they are all looking at me, I can't lose! Hinata had a firm idea in her mind and was determined to win this battle.
As for Hinata's complicated inner struggles, Kirie, as her opponent, naturally doesn't understand.
Although witches have the ability to perceive people's hearts to a greater or lesser extent, they are not good at this kind of witchcraft.
Her witchcraft are all offensive and are combat-specialized witchcraft.
"Aren't you going to attack?"
Hinata asked softly.
Seeing Wu Zhi standing still, the whole person fell into a quiet atmosphere, which made Wei Tian feel a little unable to integrate.
Hinata hesitated for a moment. Since her opponent didn't intend to attack first, then let her attack first.
She has practiced seriously during this period, and even if her opponent attacks from behind, she is able to fight back.
Thinking of this, Hinata gave a soft drink, rushed towards Wu Zhi, and quickly swung a palm towards Wu Zhi's chest.
When the palm of his hand was about to touch Wu Zhi's body, a desolate and decaying aura emitted from Wu Zhi's body.
The dark and thick shadow flew out from Kirizhi's white loose long sleeves, and like a long snake, it wrapped around Hinata's hand that was about to attack her body, and tightly wrapped around Hinata's wrist.
"!?"
Hinata was startled by the sudden appearance of a long dark shadow.
Upon closer inspection, I found that it was a soft black tentacle with uneven suction cups on it, just like the tentacles of an octopus, with transparent mucus secreted on it.
Slippery and transparent mucus was smeared on her wrist, and Hinata suddenly felt that her arm could not use any strength, and the chakra condensed in her palm seemed to be swallowed by something.
Hinata was shocked.
The other hand quickly hit the tentacle.
Whoosh!
From under Kirie's red skirt, slimy and shiny black tentacles were seen, just like the tentacles extending from her long sleeves, entwining towards Hinata's other hand.
"Back to the days!"
Hinata, who had been alert in advance, quickly dodged and distributed chakra again without thinking, driving her body to rotate.
A small pit was left in the place. Kirizhi jumped back and moved away from Hinata's attack range with the tentacles extending from his cuffs and skirt.
"Women...chakra is delicious"
Wu Zhi Sui stumbled out of his mouth to spit out these words, and a faint blush appeared on his fair face.
As a result, more tentacles were exposed from under her white long sleeves and red skirt, like a group of demons dancing wildly, as if they had countless tails, dancing wildly there.
That gesture of fangs and claws, a combination of holiness and filth, caused a huge visual impact on Hinata.
What kind of monster is this?
