Chapter 41: The Fierce Battle in the Grove

A few days later, in the early morning, in the grove on the mountain behind the school.

The sky became brighter and softer, and the rosy morning glow covered the entire forest like a transparent veil.

Two figures, more nimble than apes, jumped back and forth between the trees, colliding a few times from time to time, making a muffled sound of fists and kicks, startling a large number of resident birds.

The two figures can be vaguely seen, one male and one female, the male with silver curly hair and the female with long bright red hair.

What is slightly surprising is that although the two seem to be evenly matched, at this time, the man's breathing is already a little heavy, while the woman's breath is still long, and it seems to be at ease.

"Xia Yan, I'm going to speed up."

At this time, the red-haired woman suddenly reminded.

"Kushina, wait for ......"

Before Xia Yan finished speaking, he saw Jiu Xinnai Rabbit falling, and after leaving two shallow pits on the thick branches with his feet, his body turned into an afterimage, like a cannonball shooting towards him.

The usually delicate pink fist turned into a terrible murder weapon at this time, and it smashed over with a punch!

Xia Yan was helpless, so he had to cross his hands to block this punch first, and then fly out upside down with his strength.

Knocked into the air, he adjusted his body in the air, and the chakra condensed on the soles of his feet, landing steadily on the trunk of a huge tree, his feet attached to it, and his body parallel to the ground.

Seeing that Jiu Sinai was about to launch an offensive again, Xia Yan hurriedly made a pause gesture and said quickly in his mouth.

"Kushina, wait, don't forget our purpose today! The warm-up exercise has been almost done, and it should get to the point, otherwise you will be late for work. ”

"Huh? But I haven't moved yet! ”

Jiu Sinai froze after hearing Xia Yan's words, and although he didn't continue to attack, he had a look on his face, "You're done?" Xia Yan was speechless.

I'm afraid I'm going to be tired when you start your activity!

Sure enough, there are only tired oxen in this world, and there is no ploughed land.

Never compare your stamina to the Vortex Clan!

Xia Yan complained frantically in his heart, but on the surface, he was righteous and stern:

"A real opponent won't give you a chance to warm up, and ninjas must be ready to fight at any time in any situation."

"Well, you have a point."

Kushina couldn't refute it, so she had to be obedient.

Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

A few days ago, he promised Jiu Sinai that he would learn from her from time to time in the future, so that she could understand her actual level.

It is full of special forbearance to middle forbearance, condescending sight.

I didn't expect that today's first competition hadn't officially started, and I almost overturned in the warm-up session.

Xia Yan realized that he seemed to be a little unable to beat Jiu Sinai in the confrontation of simple physical arts.

If you are defeated by your opponent in the warm-up, how will the winner be calculated?

Waiting online, it's in a hurry.

Although Natsuhiko has many reasons (excuses) to explain the situation.

For example, Xia Yan's combat system was originally based on rune ninjutsu, and physical skills didn't occupy much weight at all, so he didn't have much time to spend on it before.

It was only recently that he began to make up for his shortcomings.

Therefore, he can't beat Jiu Sinai, who has the guidance of a famous teacher, in terms of physical skills, which is also very reasonable and logical.

Just like a mage doesn't throw fireballs and plays melee combat with warriors, of course, it doesn't have an advantage.

Of course, if you're a white-bearded old mage who can only illuminate, then Natsuhiko didn't say anything.

Not to mention that in fact, at the beginning, Xia Yan and Jiu Sinai were not compatible, and they had dealings.

It's just that the open-hanging physique of the Jiu Sinai Vortex clan gave her strong endurance and endurance, and she gradually gained the upper hand later.

Anyway, the staying power in hand-to-hand combat is not as good as that of girls, which still makes Xia Yan a little embarrassed.

But he didn't think much about it, because Kushina spoke again.

"Xia Yan Xia Yan, then let's start the formal discussion now?"

Xia Yan, who was still gasping slightly, looked around, pointed to a clearing surrounded by trees in the distance, and said, "The field battle in the grove has been fought during the warm-up, let's go over there to fight the ground battle!" ”

Xia Yan said that he definitely didn't make this decision just to be able to rest a little longer when he walked over.

"Okay." After Jiu Sinai finished speaking, he covered his mouth and smiled secretly, and did not expose Xia Yan's careful thoughts.

In fact, Jiu Sinai had already noticed that Xia Yan's physical skills were slightly inferior to his own, and his endurance was far inferior.

Discovering that the genius Yusheng Natsuhiko, who even Mito's grandmother praised, turned out to have shortcomings, and Kushina didn't know why he had an inexplicable sense of security.

Under Natsuhiko's deliberate delay and Kushina's deliberate accommodation, the two leaped between the trees unhurriedly, and after a while came to the clearing that Natsuhiko had mentioned.

After landing, Xia Yan, whose breathing had been adjusted, spoke:

"The rules are basically based on actual combat practice, but because there will be classes later, so don't use forbearance, no problem, right?"

Kushina nodded her head to indicate no objection.

So the two of them distanced themselves in the clearing, far away from each other.

"I can do it at any time, Kushina, you can start on your own when you're ready."

After Xia Yan said this, he stood in place and waited, without moving.

Seeing this, Jiu Sinai didn't dare to be careless.

Now it's not as good as warming up just now, Xia Yan can also use various means in addition to physical skills.

What kind of fighting style will Xia Yan use?

Obviously, the sealing technique and the projection technique that Xia Yan played with magic are indispensable, but the scope is still too large.

And Jiu Sinai also noticed just now that there seemed to be some problems between the physical arts connection when Xia Yan warmed up, which was obviously caused by not allowing him to use ninjutsu.

This means that Natsuhiko has a good chance of having a ninjutsu move that can be combined with physical arts.

Jiu Sinai secretly remembered it and reminded herself that she couldn't be careless later.

After thinking about it in his heart, Jiu Sinai shouted: "Then I'm going to go!" ”

With that, she rushed towards Xia Yan, and at the same time, her hands quickly sealed.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

As soon as the words fell, several clouds of white smoke exploded one after another beside Jiu Sinai, and four shadow clones who looked exactly like her appeared.

Then the shadow clones quickly dispersed, as if preparing to surround Xia Yan from four directions.

And the body of Jiu Sinai is following behind a shadow clone, ready to wait for the opportunity to move.

"Is it really this ancestral ninjutsu?"

Indeed, for the Vortex clan with a large number of chakras, the Shadow Clone technique is a cost-effective move.

However, Xia Yan still stood still, not even putting on a combat posture, still watching the actions of several shadow clones of Jiu Sinai with interest.

Soon the four doppelgangers surrounded Xia Yan and at the same time waved their fists and charged at him.

Seeing that the four clones attacked at the same pace, it was obviously a deliberate practice.

Xia Yan guessed that this was a matching body technique developed by the Vortex Clan for the Shadow Clone Technique.

Sure enough, the cooperation of the four shadow clones was very tacit, and there was no room for dodging in all directions.

Seeing that he was about to hit Xia Yan.

And at this moment, Xia Yan raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

At the same time, he spit out softly.

"It's dark, please close your eyes."

The next moment, night fell.

As the main body, Kushina, who was about to take the opportunity to sneak attack while Xia Yan was dealing with the four clones, suddenly turned black in front of him!

It's not a "dark in front of your eyes" when you faint and you can't see clearly.

It's really dark in front of your eyes.

Jiu Sinai didn't feel any discomfort, but he found that suddenly everything around him had become pitch black, and he couldn't see his five fingers.

Boom!

A doppelganger vanished, and the memory instantly returned to the Kushina body.

But Kushina didn't get any useful information from it, because this clone was also blinded and broke without knowing what was going on.

Boom!

Bang bang!

Without waiting for Kushina to give instructions to her clones, they disappeared one by one.

Like the first doppelganger, they didn't bring any information to Kushina.

At this time, Kushina couldn't help but recall the illusion developed by the second Hokage Senjutsu mentioned by Grandma Mito.

That technique can do something similar.

However, Kushina knew that the chakra in his body was not chaotic at all.

So this is obviously the trick made by Xia Yan's projection technique.

It cannot be cracked by disarming the illusion.

Kushina's brain spun rapidly, thinking about how to crack this technique.

It's just a pity that there is no time left.

Because Xia Yan's cold voice like an iceberg had already sounded behind her......

"Konoha Secret Body Transmission Technique ......"
