"Whew...... Whew......"

Trembling and standing up from the rubble, Sasuke's shoulders kept shaking up and down at this time, and he gently covered his abdomen with his hands, and began to gasp rapidly.

His gaze swept to the opposite side of Kaoru, who had fallen to the ground and was completely unconscious, Sasuke's face was stained with sweat and mud, and he could barely see a very reluctant smile from it.

I guess I was happy that I had won.

Although he is also at the end of his rope, what he competes in the end is just willpower.

And the competition in willpower is the least feared thing for Sasuke.

Compared to the night of the extermination of the clan, the tragic death of the clan, and the betrayal of those closest to him, the pain given to him, this physical pain, for him, is simply a drop in the bucket. 6

I haven't succeeded in revenge, how can I fall in such a place?

"Hey, Examiner, I'm the only one standing now, can I declare the competition over?"

After Sasuke slowly adjusted his breathing, he looked at the referee Onijima Shinobu who was standing aside.

The rules of the tournament are not much different from those of the qualifiers, except for a few additional restrictions, the winning conditions have not changed.

That is, the surrender of the opponent will be regarded as admitting defeat, and losing the ability to fight will also be regarded as defeat.

At this time, Xiang Li, who passed out in a coma, undoubtedly belonged to the second situation, and fell to the ground in a coma, which is equivalent to losing his combat ability. 1

"Your name is Sasuke Uchiha, right, with your current physical condition, I think it's better to fall down."

Shinobu Onijima glanced at Sasuke, who was scarred at the moment, although the other party won, it was very difficult to win.

And if you continue to fight in this situation, even if you recover from medical ninjutsu later, I am afraid that it will have little effect until the second round of the competition begins. 1

"I'll take the consequences myself."

Sasuke said coldly.

I finally won the game, how can I fall in such a place?

He also knows that his current situation is not suitable for continuing to fight, but who knows what the situation will be in the next game?

So, it's not yet time to completely relax.

"Okay. Well, the winner Sasuke Uchiha! ”1

Seeing the determination in Sasuke's eyes, Shinobu Onishima nodded, and simply announced that he was the winner of this round and continued to advance.

Sasuke staggered back to the lookout and was treated by Sakura's medical ninjutsu.

However, since he was in very poor condition at this time, it was not unusual for him to faint at any time. Therefore, before the next round of matches, Sasuke does not know how far he can recover, and he can only recover his strength and chakra as soon as possible, so that he will not even have the strength to raise his hand at that time.

I really want to go up and join in the fun at this time, but Ino also knows that Sasuke is in a very bad state at the moment, and if he goes over, it is estimated that it will seriously hinder Sakura's treatment work.

At first, she thought Sakura was just an incompetent vase in the team, but now it doesn't seem like that.

At this time, Sakura's role is not at all comparable to her.

Looking at Sakura-chan, who was seriously treating Sasuke with her own medical ninjutsu, Ino was also thinking about whether he should also go to practice medical ninjutsu?

"It's hard to win, Sasuke."

Naruto walked over and grinned.

Although he was happy about Sasuke's victory, he still had an attitude of nothing remarkable on his face.

"I can't be compared to the tail of the crane, after all, I also want to know how strong you are now."

Sasuke didn't care about the sneer on Naruto's face, the other party's attitude couldn't be more obvious, he just laughed it off.

"Alright, Naruto, don't bother Sasuke, he needs to rest now."

Kakashi pressed Naruto's head, stopping Naruto's desire to continue talking, then glanced at Sasuke and said, "Good job, but in the next game, you can't use that thing easily." ”1

Sasuke was slightly silent.

What Kakashi was referring to, he naturally knew.

The spell mark that Orochimaru left him was more useful than he had imagined, but because of this, Sasuke felt that this power was terrifying.

Even with his willpower, he almost lost himself in the pleasure of this power expansion.

And although this power is strong, he can't completely control it, because the deeper he goes into the spell seal, the more manic and uncontrollable the abnormal chakra becomes.

There was something important missing for him to fully harness the power of the spell seal.

This step, I'm afraid only Orochimaru can help him do it.

I see, is there something planned on me? Sasuke's mind came alive.

Thinking that Orochimaru had mentioned the matter of Itachi in his mouth, and then gave himself this power that he could not fully control, and lured him deeper step by step...... Although I don't know what Orochimaru is planning, the things he is planning are definitely not only him, but also involve Itachi.

In other words, as long as you go through Orochimaru, it will no longer be difficult to know the whereabouts of Itachi.

It's really a powerful inducement, one ring after another, and his weaknesses are pinched to death. 7

At the competition venue, the medical ninja carried the unconscious Xianglin away and sent him to the medical room for treatment, and the Oni no Kuni ninja located in the enchantment used the earth escape to begin to restore the messy competition venue and prepare for the next game.

"I didn't expect her to lose, Brother Asuka, the strength of your fellow clan is really not to be underestimated."

Kaori's defeat was completely unexpected by Asuka and Asai, and from the beginning, they didn't think that Kaori would fail in such a place.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in reality.

"I told her a long time ago, don't be careless, there won't be so many things to block with King Kong at the beginning."

Asuka sighed.

Although exposing your hole cards will make the second round of the battle difficult, if you can't even rush through the first round, then the second round of the game will not be possible.

However, Xiang Li's strategy can't be regarded as a mistake, but Sasuke's strength completely exceeded expectations, and by the time Xiang Lian took out the hole cards of the pressure box, it was too late. 1

After all, it is also a very common tactic for ninjas to hide their hands.

Even if it is him, it is impossible to throw all his tricks at once, but through observation, he can formulate a suitable strategy in real time to defeat the enemy...... Although he did see a ninja who threw his special move in the face of the enemy as soon as he came up. 1

Like his mother, and his sister. 5

His fighting style is closer to that of his father, Shiraishi. 2

Although cautious enough, such caution can sometimes lead to delays in the best time to make a move.

"I remember the next game was ......"

Aya ended the conversation about Kaori and looked to the side instead.

"Come on, Fogbranch."

Haruka Hanami, who is in charge of the medical work in the team, encourages the fog branch beside him.

Then, in an indiscreet voice, he whispered in her ear to remind the sentence 'Beware of the Eight Gate Dunjia'. 4

Kirieda, who closed his eyes tightly, nodded slightly, and then walked down the stairs under Hanami Haruka's expectant gaze.

"I almost forgot, this is a terrible guy too."

Asuka looked at the back of the misty branch, and the expression on his face was slightly silent.

Let's be glad that the other party is a participant in Group A, not Group B like him.

In his opinion, although the danger of the other party is not as good as Cai, it is not far behind.

"That's right, Wuzhi will be the champion of Group A, don't underestimate us women."

As if hearing Asuka's words, Haruka Hanami said directly in a proud tone. 1

For Hanami Haruka's self-confidence, Asuka and Aya are not incomprehensible.

However, is it really good to say such things as soon as you come up?

"Generally speaking, the final effect of this kind of line is similar to 'go home and get married after the war, only to die on the battlefield'."

Cai subtly complained.

"You two brothers are too much."

"Just telling the truth."

"No wonder I have such a good family background, but I still haven't been favored by girls. I'm really worried about your future, and I obviously have a nice face. ”1

Hanami Haruka's words made Asuka and Aya suddenly raise their eyebrows, and the two of them were a little angry in their hearts.

The other party's relatively cute face also became hateful in the eyes of the two.

Yamazaki looked at the communication between the two sides, and subconsciously moved his steps to avoid being affected by himself.

I'm just an ordinary person, so there's no need to get involved in the monsters' wars.

"Kay's students? I don't know how much of the essence of the Eight Gates Dunjia can be obtained? ”

Looking at the competition stage, Xiao Li, who walked up from the other side, flashed a different color in the dark pupils of the glass.

Although it was just a whim, it was also a fact that Kai, who was still immature, was let go at that time. A few years have passed, and the other party must have had a deeper attainment in the Eight Gate Dunjia, as for this young man who resembles Kai in both clothing and hairstyle, she also has certain expectations.

If it weren't for the fact that Kai was still single, she would have thought that the two were father and son, not master and apprentice who were not related by blood. 7

"At this age, reaching the fourth gate is the limit, after all, from this gate, it is the danger zone of the eight gates of Dunjia."

Ayane said.

And most of the ninjas who practiced this forbidden art mostly stopped there.

The third and fourth gates of the Eight Gates Dunjia are a very serious watershed.

The increase of the first three doors is very weak, and the fourth gate, as the first dangerous level, is also very objective, and it is also a real sense to enter the state of the eight doors of Dunjia.

Therefore, Ayane believes that Xiao Li's entry into the fourth gate is already the limit.

In other words, the limit of stopping at the third gate should be the level of the other party.

And no matter how you guess, actual verification is the best way to go.

The quality of the candidates for this year's Zhongnin exam is very high, and it may seriously exceed their expectations.

"Are you two ready?"

Onijima Shinobu habitually asked before Xiao Li and Wuzhi fought.

Wuzhi nodded faintly, indicating that he was ready, while Xiao Li suddenly raised his hand, as if he had something to say.

"Is Konoha's Lee Locke? Do you have any questions? ”

Shinobu on Onijima saw Xiao Li raise his hand, so he asked.

Xiao Li stared at his round eyes, with a serious face, and said, "I want to ask, this player has his eyes closed all the time, won't it affect the battle?" ”1

“……”

“……”

The other two people in the center of the countertop were all stopped by Xiao Li's words.

"It's really worthy of Li, it's really straight to the point!"

Kai on the lookout praised Xiao Li's question.

"No, isn't that a rather boring question?"

I complained every day.

Since the other party can walk down and stand in a good position safe and sound, it is obvious that she can figure out the road with her eyes closed, maybe she is hiding some trick in this state.

Shinobu on Onijima looked at Kirieda, probably hoping that the other party would answer such a boring question quickly. 1

However, Kirieda just shook his head, not knowing if he didn't want to answer, or if he didn't mean to.

But since he responded, Shinobu on Onijima didn't get to the bottom of it, so he directly waved his hand and announced: "Now, the game begins!" ”

didn't give Xiao Li time to ask questions, through the previous questions, he had already seen that the other party was likely to be a guy with a missing head.

"It's coming!"

Grains

At the beginning of the moment, Xiao Li rushed towards the fog branch with extremely fast speed, intending to attack the opponent directly from the front.

Wuzhi unhurriedly untied the bamboo tube with the charm attached to his waist, held it in his right hand, and then shook it gently.

At the same time as the plug flew out, the actual flow of water flew out of the bamboo tube, and the water droplets reflected a crystal luster under the sun, like a sharp blade slashing at Xiao Li who rushed from the front.

Xiao Li's eyes flashed, and his body flickered.

A sharp hissing sounded, and the floor where Xiao Li landed just now was instantly cut into two smooth and neat halves by the sharp blade formed by the flow of water.

Xiao Li felt extremely frightened, if he was hit by this kind of thing, he would either die or be disabled.

Obviously, the girl in the witch costume in front of her gives people a cute and weak desire that needs to be protected, but the attack is very simple and rude, and it is quite ferocious, such a contrast between weakness and brutality makes Xiao Li unable to accept it for a while. 1

The difference between the strength of the technique and the appearance of the practitioner is too great.

And...... Soon!

Xiao Li looked at the water flowing behind him, as if he had the wisdom to discern the enemy, and pursued him frantically, tirelessly. 1

Xiao Li knew very well what the consequences of being caught up by this kind of current would be, so he didn't dare to risk his life.

"Sure enough, it was exactly the same as it was at that time, if you took a slow step, your body would be cut in half. If there is a bruise, the water will enter the body and explode. What a cute and cruel shrine maiden. ”

On the lookout, looking at Xiao Li, who was constantly being pursued by the water creatures on the field, Temari seemed to recall a not very good memory, and cold sweat flowed from his forehead.

Whether it is the former or the latter, it is a very terrible end for the enemy.

She clearly remembered the appearance of Yunyin Village's shinobi who was tortured by this kind of water and couldn't take a human shape, and then died a miserable death, and now that she thinks about it, she still feels a little frightened and inexplicable.

"That kid is in trouble, at this time, he should use ninjutsu to harass the other party while dodging, get a chance to breathe, and then think about countermeasures."

Kankuro also nodded.

That stream of water has a sense of life, just like the sand of my Airo, and if you don't disturb the practitioner, you will eventually fall to the ground from exhaustion.

"I can't do it."

Ning Ci, who heard Sand Shinobi's conversation, replied.

"What?"

"Xiao Li doesn't know any ninjutsu and illusion, he can only do physical arts."

Ning Ci replied.

In fact, this is not an unspeakable secret, because as time goes by, Xiao Li's secret will be directly exposed.

Temari and Kankuro's eyes widened, they don't know ninjutsu and illusions, they can only do physical arts?

What kind of ninja is this?

"No, it's impossible, the easiest doppelganger technique to cover yourself should be ......"

"Xiao Li can't do it."

Ignoring the people who continued to be stunned, Ning Ci closed his eyes, then opened his white eyes, carefully observing the kind of water that was chasing behind Xiao Li.

The feeling that gave him, this feeling, was the same as the pitch-black tentacles that appeared in the qualifiers.

It has a strong sense of life and is not a dead thing. 1

Under such circumstances, Xiao Li will sooner or later be caught up by this water creature and be eliminated because of his loss of strength.

And this problem, obviously, as a party, Xiao Li is more clear.

However, he was not frightened by the predicament in front of him, but calmly thought about how to break the situation.

After all, this is just the beginning of the game, and he still has plenty of energy. Coupled with his usual exercise, he has full confidence in his physical strength.

Even if it is a protracted battle, he has the confidence to persevere.

While flashing the water behind him, Xiao Li took out a shuriken from his ninja bag and shot at the fog branch in the distance.

Not surprisingly, his shuriken skills were also decent, and he was easily dodged by the fog branches.

His only shuriken and kunai tactics that he could use to attack from a distance were clearly powerless to change the development of the situation in such a situation.

So, Xiao Li gave up continuing the temptation to avoid wasting kunai and shuriken.

In this situation, adding the detonator charm may not have much effect.

In this case, you can only dodge the water creatures and attack the sorcerers at the same time.

Thinking of this, Xiao Li increased the speed of his body to the maximum, and with a snort, turned into a pitch-black afterimage, and flew straight towards the fog branch.

"Konoha Whirlwind!"

Shaking off the current, Xiao Li flew up and attacked with a leg sweep, kicking Wuzhi in the face with all his might.

Boom!

The leg sweeping attack was blocked, Xiao Li's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the incomparably slender and delicate witch girl in front of him, just gently erected the arm holding the bamboo tube, and blocked his leg sweeping.

With such an understatement, his body didn't even move, but his hair was slightly blown by the strong wind generated by the leg sweep, Xiao Li felt extremely shocked.

The white face of the fog branch was slightly raised, and the momentum of the whole person changed, originally giving people a sense of weakness that was delicate and needed to be cared for, but in an instant, it became as fierce and fierce as a demon.

Worst!

Xiao Li's thoughts were flying, but it was too late.

The fog branch pressed his other hand on Xiao Li's face, and a huge impact made Xiao Li's brain fall into a blank state for a short time.

Rumble!

Grabbing Xiao Li's face, Wuzhi unceremoniously smashed the opponent's head towards the ground, kicking up rubble and flying dust. 3

Seeing the weak girl show such a fierce side, the audience cheered, as if awakened to some strange habit, looking at the sharp contrast before and after.

"It's really naïve to attack directly with this state of physical art, but the fog branch has been trained by monsters since he was a child, and his body has already been fed as hard as iron." 14

Seeing Xiao Li directly attack Kirizhi himself with his physical technique was an extremely stupid thing in Hanami Haruka's opinion.

If the other party didn't take out the Eight Gate Dun Armor, it would be impossible to cause any damage to the fog branch.

The flow of water with the ability to cut with a sharp blade fell from the sky, and its piercing hiss made Xiao Li react instantly.

Bang!

Shaking away the fog branch that suppressed him, Xiao Li rolled his body, dodging the water that shot straight down from the sky.

A small, bottomless hole appeared in the ground, and a few drops of blood remained on the ground.

The misty branch patted the dust on the shrine maiden's suit, and the creature that turned into a feather cloak surrounded the body, forming a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree defense.

The face with his eyes closed tightly turned straight at Xiao Li who had fled.

The limiter on Xiao Li's wrist had already been opened, so he was able to break free of the suppression of the fog branch just now.

Otherwise, the game would have been over just now.

Next, we have to show stronger strength. Xiao Li said secretly in his heart.

So, Xiao Li looked at the lookout and saw Kai, who was facing him with a bright smile and gesticulating, the corners of his mouth were also hooked, and unparalleled power emerged in his heart.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Xiao Li retreated directly, jumped onto the barrier wall, and used the chakra under his feet to fix his body on the barrier wall without falling.

Then he began to use his hands to untie something on his calf, which was some kind of weight-bearing object.

"Konoha guys, all these tricks, a little bit of weight ......"1

It's not contempt, but Hanami Haruka thinks that how much can you improve by untying the burden at this time?

There are many people who are accompanied by her thoughts, and even Konoha's shinobi feel that this approach is too contemptuous of their opponents.

And then—

Rumble!

The two loads hit the ground at the same time, creating a scene like a shell bombardment, smashing two deep pits on the ground and rolling up a large amount of dust. 1

“……！？”

Looking at the exaggerated scene caused by the weight falling to the ground, everyone opened their mouths in shock.

Training with weights is nothing new.

But increase the weight to this level...... Is the guide Shinobi the devil?

Even the fog branch, which was an opponent, twitched its white and tender skin. 1

Even she wouldn't wear this level of weight all day long to abuse her body. 3

"Next, the second round begins!"

Xiao Li kicked his legs and instantly disappeared from the barrier wall.

The water that surrounded the body of the misty branch roared and flew up again.

Whoosh.

At this moment, Xiao Li, who even disappeared with an afterimage, directly made the water flow freeze in mid-air, and when it couldn't see Xiao Li's movement trajectory clearly, it didn't seem to know how to attack.

Kiri-eda's face moved, the long black hair in his ears blew out, and the strong wind generated by the movement of the witch costume on his body made a hunting sound and clinged to his body.

And her whole person seemed to be frightened, standing in place in a daze.

"Now, you can't see clearly!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Li's mouth.

I felt that the time was almost up, and after untying the limiter and the weight, my speed was qualitatively improved.

The kind of water with life consciousness can't keep up with his movement speed at all, so he can only follow behind and eat dust.

He rushed to Kirieda and crouched down, but his right leg unfolded an upper attack and bounced at Kirieda's chin.

"It's Shadow Dancing Leaf, Xiao Li, is he ......?"

Seeing this, Ning Ci instantly realized what Xiao Li was going to do.

Sure enough, after attacking the jaw of the fog branch and kicking the opponent into the sky, Xiao Li also jumped into the sky and appeared behind the fog branch.

The white bandages wrapped around his arms quickly disintegrated and began to wrap around Mistwi's body.

"Is that the only way?"

This voice came lightly, causing Xiao Li's body to stiffen.

The white straps on both sides of his arms, although they wrapped around the body of the fog branch, the aura on the other party's body did not mean to be disturbed at all, and even the jaw that was hit at the beginning did not have any injuries, and his expression was very indifferent.

Before Xiao Li could take the next step, he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his left arm.

There was a small incision that had been dissolved by the flow of water, and there was a drop of crystal clear water left at the incision, which was shining.

Before Xiao Li could understand what was going on, in his stunned expression, a large amount of blood spurted out of his left arm and flew in front of his eyes.

Then the piercing pain rushed straight to Xiao Li's brain, making him scream uncontrollably:

"Ahh

Bang!

Breaking free from the bandage, the misty branch spun around in mid-air.

Xiao Li, who gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, his pupils suddenly constricted.

I saw that the fog branch's body was shrouded in a dark mist at this moment.

It's an extremely light pitch black, and it seems that there is no way to reach the end.

Then, a pale and cold demon mask suddenly emerged from the dark mist and tightly covered the girl's face. 6

In the depths of its black hole hole, which was like an abyss's frightening eye sockets, there was a blood-colored light like a red lotus of karmic fire, staring coldly ahead.
