Chapter 100: Battle!
"Form the seal of opposition!"
Iruka's voice rang out from the training field.
A gentle breeze blew by, lifting the hair of a boy with long golden hair.
Sunlight shone on his azure pupils, reflecting the image of a black, spiky-haired figure opposite him.
Their slender fingers touched, and their eyes met.
A smile appeared on Naruto's lips. He was very much looking forward to seeing what progress Sasuke, who had been secretly training for three years, had made.
Although everyone trains together at school, Sasuke trains at home every morning.
Therefore, Sasuke's hair was always wet, but he would simply wipe it with a cloth.
Karin: Sasuke-kun's shampoo smells so good.
"Hey, Sasgei, how many times is this now?"
Upon hearing the blond-haired man's voice, Sasuke's lips curled up slightly.
The day has finally come.
A grade-level practice sessiowas n held at the school.
I get up at six every morning and practice swordsmanship and ninjutsu with my dad until seven.
Then I go to school. I get home at six in the evening for physical training.
At eight, I sit at my desk to study ninjutsu. In the evening, I alslearnedrn about the Sharingan from my teacher, Izuna.
Moreover, my eyes are not the same as they were three years ago.
"I don't know, and I don't care."
It's a lie, this is the 43rd time.
The last time I took the 42nd challenge was 3 years ago, the day after I soaked in a hot spring.
After practicing swordsmanship for a few days, Sasuke felt confident in his abilities and called upon his teacher, Izuna, to challenge Naruto.
Then, by using two tomoe, he successfully forced out Naruto's ninjutsu.
As a result, Naruto used his Wood Release to hang him up.
Izuna: No? Do members of the Senju clan have such yellow hair? Also, isn't this kid's surname Uzumaki?
This problem had been bothering Izuna for a long time until a few months ago when the blue screen turned black and white, giving a feeling of being out of control, and then an option with garbled text popped up.
Excuse me, is this Sasuke?
Izuna?
Yes, Rosey?
Then, before Izuna could even click on it, it was inexplicably judged as successful.
At first, Izuna didn't understand what had happened. It wasn't until the next day, when Sasuke came in with three tomoe and swordsmanship far surpassing his previous skills, that a strange sense of familiarity revealed the answer.
After a little thought, a bold idea popped into Izuna's mind.
Is it possible that there is a wicked Hashirama Senju inside Naruto's stomach?
If this continues, will my brother and I still have a chance to get out?
Although somewhat discouraged, Sasuke's hard work impressed Izuna.
Watching this child, who looked exactly like her, tirelessly pour out his sweat, all to bring his older brother back.
Perhaps it was the Uchiha bloodline, but the usually rational Izuna suddenly became passionate.
So what if it's Wood Release?
So what if it's Hashirama Senju?
Didn't I also slash with a sword back then?
Besides, Sasukis nowis far stronger than he was at the same age back then.
Inside the sealed space, Izuna closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Sasuke, do your best."
Perhaps the sound wasn't as loud as the female cheerleaders next to him, but it still reached Sasuke's heart.
"Okay, don't worry."
Sasuke slowly drew a long sword from his waist.
The sword was the perfect size for Sasuke and contained a significant amount of chakra metal.
Chakra metal has the effect of transmitting chakra, and as is well known, chakra has attributes.
Holding the sword in his right hand, his chakra surged to the hilt, and a flame ignited on the sword.
Are you ready?
Sasuke raised his head and looked at the smiling Naruto in front of him.
The moment their eyes met, his figure flew away.
The red flames streaked across the sky, and the fiery clouds formed by their afterimages created a visual effect for the students below the stage that was no less impressive than a fireworks display.
"Amazing!"
"As expected of Sasuke-kun."
"Hmm, but at this level, you want to defeat my brother..."
Among the girls, everyone else was completely amazed by Sasuke's cool swordsmanship and the special effects, but Karin was different from them.
She knew just how terrifying her older brother's strength was now.
In three years, my brother's chakra reserves have become equivalent to seven times my own.
Sasuke's current chakra level is at most about the same as his own.
Therefore, Sasuke has absolutely no chance of winning by simply having to outlast his opponent.
The best way is to knock your own brother out of the arena with a single blow.
Yes, it's about striking, not defeating.
It's a pity, but in Karin's eyes, Sasuke didn't have the strength to defeat her older brother.
Hinata's eyes were surrounded by bulging veins, though the intensity seemed much less than before, and the blue color in her eyes was increasing.
In her eyes, the fight between Sasuke and Naruto was clearly visible.
Sasuke's thrusts, slashes, swings, and stabbings were all aimed at Naruto's vital points, and the flames formed from his chakra ensured that even if they didn't hit Naruto, they could still cause damage.
However, Naruto wasn't without weapons.
A broadsword made of wood caught Sasuke's attacks each time.
When the flames on Sasuke's sword touched the wooden sword, they not only failed to ignite the wooden sword, but were instead extinguished by it.
In the blink of an eye, after a few breaths, a heavy thud was heard, and Sasuke's body, using the force of Naruto's resistance, flew away from Naruto.
However, Naruto wasn't about to give up that opportunity. He leaped after Naruto, his greatsword spinning in his hand.
[Fire Release: Dragon Flame Song!]
Four sparks flew out of Sasuke's mouth, transforming into four ferocious fire dragons that rushed towards the whirlwind that Naruto had become.
An explosionon rang out, and Iruka, watching from below the stage, felt his eyelids twitch.
Wait, are these really students from the Ninja Academy?
Even regular Chunin don't fight this fiercely.
"Hey, Sasuke, you..."
"It's alright, Iruka-sensei."
Naruto's voice came from the smoke of the explosion, followed by his long golden hair floating in the air.
"We've only just begun."
In about a second, Naruto had completed the hand seals.
[Wood Release: Wood Splinter Technique!]
A dozen or so wooden sticks flew towards Sasuke. After their brief exchange, Naruto realized that Sasuke had truly grown up.
At least, I can play a little more freely now.
snort.
[Sharingan!]
A crimson light appeared in Sasuke's eyes, and three jet-black tomoe began to spin.
He swiftly slashed with his rapier, shattering several wooden planks in front of him, and then leaped forward to attack Naruto again.
"Holy crap, Sasuke is only 10 years old, and he already has three tomoe?"
Inside the sealed space, Kushina stared in surprise at the crimson Sharingan in Sasuke's eyes and covered her mouth.
"Well, it's not so bad, after all, Naruto can do the wooden puppet now."
Hashirama stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
It wasn't unheard of for teenagers to have three tomoe.
Sasuke's older brother had also awakened it when he was eleven or ten and a half.
