Sasuke's sudden acceleration hadn't surprised Kakashi yet.
It had indeed been surprising that a Genin who had just graduated could explode at such a speed.
But Kakashi had already known about Sasuke's speed.
Responding easily, Kakashi had also taken out Kunai, ready to test Sasuke's body skills.
However, in the next second—
There had been a faint sound of breaking wind.
Kakashi had frozen for a moment.
His peripheral vision had caught the right side, and there had been an imperceptible black shadow.
It had been rapidly approaching in his direction.
A split second! Kakashi had stopped moving forward.
In the next second, a shuriken had struck from the right.
Across Kakashi's eyes.
Looking at the shuriken that had appeared at some point—
Kakashi's heart had been shocked.
He had thought carefully about Sasuke's actions just then!
'Could it be the hidden weapon thrown at the moment when he raised his hand and turned Kunai just now!'
Even though he had thrown the shuriken under the cover of playing Kunai, he had wanted the shuriken to circle such a large circle and stab towards his temple.
This had not been an easy thing!
'This Uchiha boy...'
At that moment in Hokage's office, Hiruzen's expression had also been very surprised.
"Actually...you can use Kunai to cover up the thrown shuriken..."
A Genin would have had such skills!
Immediately after the crystal ball, Sasuke relied on a shuriken to create the first attack advantage.
He had waved Kunai directly at the head and stabbed straight at Kakashi's heart.
The movements, angles, and speed had all been perfect.
But Kakashi had not been so easy to deal with.
He had easily blocked Sasuke's attack, and even turned around and kicked Sasuke fiercely.
Even if he had crossed his hands to block in the air.
But Sasuke had been repulsed by Kakashi's power.
The whole person had backed away quickly.
Sasuke had unloaded the force almost instantly after landing and had quickly fine-tuned his body posture.
Charged to Kakashi again.
Basically, in the shortest possible time, he had ensured that he would not lose the rhythm of the attack.
Seeing Sasuke's reaction, Kakashi was even more surprised.
A Genin!
In terms of physical skills, how could he have had such strength?
It had just been unbelievable.
When!
The collision between Kunai and Kunai had burst out a series of sparks.
While Sasuke's attacks had been fast-paced and his movements flawless, Kakashi had had more power than Sasuke.
Given his age, Sasuke hadn't had time to practice physical skills.
The gap in strength had been too great, and he had still been instantly repelled.
But in the next second, Sasuke had directly strangely unloaded the force, turned his head, accelerated and stuck it up again.
The dazzling gymnastics confrontation had begun.
Little Sakura, who had been hiding in the bushes at the moment, had been completely dumbfounded.
'who I am!'
'Where am I?'
'Is this a battle between Sasuke-kun and Jōnin-sensei?'
What had happened to the fierce fight that had basically been completely invisible?
Sasuke-kun... so strong?
Although Sasuke-kun had been a genius, it had been impossible for him to be this genius!
Little Sakura had been surprised, but Naruto had been even more surprised.
He had also played against Kakashi just now, so he had known how strong Mr. Kakashi had been.
It had not been something that a kid like him, who had just graduated, could fight against.
However, Sasuke had actually fought back and forth with Mr. Kakashi, and it seemed that the battle had been very fierce.
Naruto had dropped his hands naturally, staring fixedly at the figure flickering fast, almost making him unable to see Sasuke clearly.
'Sasuke... this... is this your true strength?'
Hiruzen had been equally surprised.
Being able to fight Kakashi to this extent in taijutsu, Sasuke basically had the taijutsu that had not lost to Jōnin at a young age.
However, due to the gap in Sasuke's strength, his physical skills had not reached Jōnin's level.
But even that had been enough to worry Hiruzen.
'The Uchiha clan... has a genius again, is this a good thing for Konoha?'
The most frightening person at that time was Kakashi.
Because Kakashi could clearly feel that Sasuke's fighting rhythm had been getting tighter and tighter.
Even every movement had become stronger than before.
It hadn't been a quick increase in strength, it had been like... like... a born genius for fighting.
From being a little rusty at the beginning, Sasuke quickly entered the fighting state in just a dozen moves.
And the physical skills visible to the naked eye had been rapidly increasing.
It had been hard to discover this without fighting Sasuke himself.
'genius...'
'Absolute genius...'
Even for a moment, Kakashi had felt more genius than Itachi.
'Uchiha's monsters... there are so many!'
Kakashi had felt helpless.
But he hadn't intended to continue spending time with Sasuke like that.
Although Sasuke's taijutsu had been improving, in the final analysis, Kakashi had an absolute advantage in terms of strength.
In the face of absolute power, skills had been vulnerable.
Boom!!
Kakashi had gotten serious.
With one palm, Sasuke, who had been fighting close to him, had been sent flying.
Although Sasuke had already blocked it, he hadn't been able to stand it with too much force.
And the distance he had been shot that time had already made him lose the rhythm of continuing to attack.
Sasuke, who had stood still, had not attacked immediately but had chosen to defend.
Kakashi had been relieved to see Sasuke in action.
'Sharp intuition!'
'Still relying on that unbelievable fighting talent!'
Thinking in his heart, the movements of Kakashi's hands had not been slow at all.
The moment he had raised his hand and thrown Kunai, Kakashi had wanted to control the rhythm of the battle and, at the same time, force out Sasuke's Lightning Style!
And having seen Kunai shooting at himself—
Sasuke had also instinctively thrown his own kunai. Sasuke hadn't thought Kakashi had been better than himself in kunai throwing technique.
However, the problem had been that Sasuke hadn't been as strong as Kakashi.
When!
The kunai had been shot down, but Kakashi's kunai had hit Sasuke's direction even though the angle had been a little off.
At the same time, Kakashi had approached Sasuke rapidly from another direction.
Dodge!
Kunai would have made it impossible for Sasuke to deal with Kakashi's melee attack.
Now there had been only one choice left for Sasuke. While speeding up to avoid Kunai, he also had to avoid Kakashi's attack.
But at Kakashi's speed, he had had to be faster than Kakashi to avoid it.
However!
Sasuke hadn't wanted to expose Lightning Style yet, but he hadn't known that he had.
Kakashi had looked at Sasuke, who had seemed hesitant.
'Aren't you going to use it yet? Your Lightning Style...'
At that moment, Sarutobi had also stared at the crystal ball with full energy.
But in the next second!
Sasuke had grabbed the ninja bag with his right hand again...
