Chapter 100 Defects(1/3)
"A duel between Byakugan and Byakugan? This is truly a regrettable battle."
Kakashi looked at the two white-eyed ninjas who were stepping on the competition stage simultaneously, and unnaturally realized that behind this competition, there was a tragedy that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.
The rest of Konoha's guidance jounin also showed silent expressions. Compared to the inexperienced genin, they knew far more things than they imagined.
After all, there are some things that you can't hide if you want to, but you just can't talk about them openly.
In fact, the situation that the Hyuga clan is currently facing in Konoha and outside Konoha has a scale in the hearts of the Jonin to judge right and wrong according to their own values...
"Yeah, it seems like fate is reappearing. For Kai's students, this may be an unprecedentedly difficult battle."
As one of the few women among the Jonin, Kurenai is not only strong but also possesses the sensibility of a woman.
He seemed to feel Hinata's inner uneasiness and worry beside him, and sighed softly.
Compared to the Hyuga clan in the Kingdom of Demons, the Hyuga clan in Konoha still divides the so-called clans and branch families based on tradition, and concludes the oldest protection contract.
The final situation formed by this contract naturally caused the clan and branch families to become tit-for-tat, and the struggle has continued since the Warring States Period to this day.
Since the defection incident more than ten years ago, the relationship between the two parties has become even more intense, and the conflicts are irreconcilable. When the family separates, their every move must be monitored, and their loyalty to the family and Konoha cannot be guaranteed.
This is equivalent to the existence of an untimed bomb within Konoha and Hinata.
And all of this was given by the Hyuga clan from the Kingdom of Demon Worshipers.
This game is not so much a promotion match for the Chunin Examination, but a family grudge and personal grudge to determine who is the legitimate one.
The same blood flows in the body, but the paths taken are completely opposite.
"You're absolutely right. In today's finals, the person I'm most worried about is Neji."
Kai's abrupt voice sounded from behind.
He hurried back from the infirmary, specially coming back to watch Neji's game.
Although Xiao Li is regarded by him as his successor, Neci is also a beloved student whom he values. At this time, he must go to the scene in person to stand up for his students.
Even though his role off the court can be said to be minimal.
"Oh, are you back, Kai? How is your student doing?"
Kakashi's eyes squinted slightly, asking about Xiao Li's status.
Compared with other injured players, Xiao Li's injury is currently the most serious one.
Not to mention the severe injuries inflicted by the opponent, the sequelae caused by Eight Gate Dunjia may have begun to damage Xiao Li's body.
According to Kakashi's judgment, with Xiao Li's current physique, opening the third door is the limit. At most, he will be weak for a while, and no serious problems will occur.
If the fourth door is opened, it may leave indelible wounds to Xiao Li.
And the consequences of forcibly opening the fifth door are more serious than the consequences of opening the fourth injury door.
You can tell one thing or two from the worried expression on Kai's face.
Xiao Li's injury at this moment is probably not optimistic.
"At present, the injury has stabilized, but it is currently unclear whether there will be any hidden injuries. Further observation is needed."
Kai replied.
He patted Tiantian on the shoulder and told her not to worry about Xiao Li's life.
Nowadays, the medical technology in various countries has matured. Compared with the past situation where there was a serious shortage of medical ninjas, the current medical conditions are more than twice as good.
Besides, the medical technology of the Demon Country is no worse than that of Konoha, which makes Kai feel at ease.
If that doesn't work, he can also seek help from Tsunade, one of the three ninjas. With his medical skills, he can definitely cure the disease.
"The battle between Byakugan and Byakugan, in a sense, is really an exciting match. Mr. Shiraishi, who do you think will be the winner in this match?"
Sitting on the high platform, with a clear view of the competition below, Kazekage Luosha asked with a smile.
He had also heard about some dirty things inside Konoha.
After all, like the Uchiha clan that perished in Konoha in the past, the Hyuga clan has always been the focus of attention from the rest of the ninja villages and the country.
The Byakugan of this clan are too troublesome on the battlefield, and every strategic layout Konoha completes cannot do without the help of the Byakugan.
This is enough to prove that the intimidating power of the Byakugan is not inferior to the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.
"Although this player from Konoha is very good, I am more optimistic about my own child."
Shiraishi did not answer modestly, but directly believed that his son Ai would be the final winner, his tone revealing strong confidence.
"It seems that Mr. Shiraishi is very confident in the strength of his child."
Feng Ying sighed with a smile.
"Of course, please wait and see, Kazekage-sama. Speaking of which, I am also very interested in Kazekage-sama's current strength. After the Chunin Exams, do you want to have a little competition with me?"
Shiraishi began to shift the topic to Luo Sha.
This sentence was not meant to be ridiculing or humiliating. He really wanted to know what level of strength Luo Sha, who had cracked his inner demons, had achieved. Maybe it would bring him some surprises.
Luo Sha still smiled and expressed her polite refusal.
Regardless of whether Shiraishi's words were a secret provocation or whether he really wanted to know his current strength, Luo Sha did not want to act according to the other party's wishes.
Facing this kind of monster, I was not fully prepared at all.
While they were talking, someone on the field said, "The game begins," and their attention turned to the game.
The moment the competition was announced, Aya and Neji opened their Byakugan at the same time, observing the flow of chakra in the opponent's body, assuming a standard stance for using Soft Fist, and then rushed towards the opponent in unison, gathering energy on their palms
The chakra released outwards launches a ferocious attack.
Such great strength! Every time he came into contact with Cai, Neji could feel the terrifying strength transmitted from the opponent's palm. The huge force penetrated his palm, making his bones feel a little painful, and he was secretly shocked.
.
Compared with the straight-forward rigid boxing, soft boxing is not a physical technique that values strength, but focuses more on technique.
But it doesn't mean that pure strength has little effect on Rou Fist. It's just that generally speaking, the ninjas of the Hyuga clan won't do that deliberately.
He clearly felt that the strength of Cai's soft fist obviously deviated from the traditional Hyuuga clan's soft fist.
In this way, if you look at each other with the eyes of a normal Hyuga clan ninja, you will definitely suffer a big loss.
"The attacks of both of them are so slow, and they don't have any sense of power."
Seeing the battle between Sai and Neji, Naruto expressed his true feelings.
"It just seems very slow. After all, the conditions outside the court and on the court are completely different. As for the sense of power, it depends on each person.
Kakashi explained a little bit.
Soft fist does seem to give people a very slow and weak feeling, but that feeling is completely an illusion.
Even he didn't want to fight head-on with taijutsu against the jounin of the Hyuga clan.
This is the deterrent power of soft fist.
In terms of physical skills, there are very few people who can defeat the Hyuga clan ninjas at the same level, or almost none.
After all, the fighting method of blocking chakra and directly attacking the inside of the human body is really a headache and difficult to guard against.
At this moment, the lottery's offensive suddenly changed.
In the process of performing the soft fist, his right hand suddenly passed by the ninja bag tied to his thigh, and then he picked up a kunai on his index finger.
The kunai spun dexterously on his finger, and then swung it violently, swiping towards Neji's face.
Neji's body moved back slightly, allowing the kunai to pass in front of him at just the right distance.
Then he reversed the palm of his soft fist and slapped Cai's abdomen fiercely.
Sai's left hand quickly caught Neji's arm, and the kunai turned around and moved towards his neck.
boom!
A muffled sound of thunder came from between the two of them. Neji hummed slightly, his body unnaturally moved backwards, and his arms were in pain.
He looked at the uninjured Cai in shock. He was clearly hit in the abdomen by his soft fist, but in a short moment, a surge of chakra instantly covered the abdomen, turning it as hard as a steel plate. Not only did it
His soft fist attack was resolved and his body was knocked out.
Even though his Byakugan noticed it at the end, he failed to adjust his offensive in time.
Neji looked solemn and touched his stinging neck. There was no doubt that a cut had been made there. Although it was not deep, it allowed him to bleed successfully.
"Did you escape?"
Cai murmured, although it was a pity, she didn't feel too disappointed.
If it were just this level, the opponent would not have successfully advanced from the qualifiers.
Without thinking much, Cai instantly condensed chakra at her feet, her speed suddenly increased, and she was completely different from before.
Even Neji, who had a 360-degree field of vision, only saw an afterimage.
"Bagua Kongzhang!"
An air cannonball, which was mixed and compressed with air and chakra, was instantly launched from Sai's palm and hit Neji's body from the front.
