Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Chapter 323 Teacher and Student ×

Although Chojuro still retains consciousness, his pressure points have been blocked by Neji, so he will not be able to use chakra for a while.

After all, he's not the protagonist of some shonen manga, who can forcefully break through acupoints just by shouting something like "I don't believe in fate."

Now, Chojuro can only lie obediently on the ground.

He looked dejected.

Although Neji had a broken arm and half of his body was immobile, he seemed capable of continuing to fight.

"The victor—Hyuga Neji!"

The cheers weren't as enthusiastic this time.

After all, most of the audience only saw the thick fog for most of the day, and the match ended as soon as the fog cleared.

"Waaaaah! This is youth!"

The loudest voices came from Might Guy and Rock Lee.

They even hugged each other and cried their hearts out.

This has attracted a lot of attention.

This caused the teammate standing nearby to subtly move away a little.

Neji on the field was also looking very annoyed, and he dragged his injured body off the field as soon as possible.

This is even more painful than losing.

After Genma Shiranui announced the results, earth-style ninjas immediately entered the arena to begin repairing the site.

"Chōjūrō actually lost?"

Mei Terumi found it hard to believe.

Chojuro is a child prodigy in Kirigakure, and is considered the number one genius in Kirigakure at present.

I never expected to lose to such an unknown Hyuga ninja.

Mei Terumi muttered under her breath, her face puffing up with anger.

Tsunade couldn't help but roll her eyes at her.

"Hyuga Neji is no unknown nobody; he is a top genius of the Hyuga clan."

"Really? Then why do I only know Hinata?"

Terumi Mei said harshly.

Tsunade was even more speechless and couldn't help but reveal the truth, "Because you're just a love-struck fool."

She still remembered how this guy looked when he came to ask her to marry Aoba.

What else could it be but being love-struck?

"What did you say?!"

Mei Terumi's face instantly turned red.

Tsunade ignored her completely.

Chiyo watched from the sidelines, finding the interaction between the two quite amusing.

Speaking of which, this acting Mizukage is Shirakumo Aoba's fiancée, and Tsunade is Shirakumo Aoba's teacher.

The relationship between the two is like that of a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

It's normal to have some contradictions.

"What a thrilling battle! Hinata, your commentary was fantastic!"

After listening to Hinata's explanation, Shirokumo Aoba, though somewhat hesitant, still offered his praise.

"I'm glad you like it, Aoba-kun."

Hinata said with some joy.

"Heh heh, now it's our turn!"

Ino put her hands on her hips, looked at Sakura, and slightly raised her chin. "Sakura, I will do my best!"

Sakura just clenched her fists. "Me too!"

With the completion of the competition venue repairs.

Genma Shiranui announced the roster for the next match.

"The third match is between Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura!"

"come on!"

Baiyun Qingye said "Go for it!" to the two of them.

After Ino and Sakura nodded, they also walked onto the field.

"Huh? I didn't expect it to be an internal battle between these two little girls."

On the high platform, Mei Terumi's face showed an expression of interest again.

She still remembers how, when she went on a date with Aoba, that blond-haired girl kept causing her trouble.

If it weren't for her own status, she would have already cheered for Sakura.

On the field, Ino and Sakura separated and formed opposing hand seals.

"start."

"That's what Genma Shiranui said."

Ino stepped back without hesitation.

Although she had never seriously fought Sakura, she knew that although Sakura was a medical ninja, she had studied under Tsunade and received guidance from Aoba.

Sakura's best fighting style is physical combat.

Especially given his superhuman strength, she dared not get close to him at all.

Moreover, her Mind Transfer technique is designed to control distance.

Ino casually waved her hand.

Several shuriken were suddenly thrown out.

Sakura had already begun forming hand seals even before Ino started retreating.

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

boom! boom! boom!

When the shuriken hit Sakura, it instantly produced a burst of smoke.

A wooden stake was left in place.

Sakura leaped high out of the smoke and unleashed a punch that descended from the sky.

Ino's expression changed slightly, and she quickly dodged away.

boom!

The earth trembled violently.

The ground around them was dented by Sakura's punch.

It ripped up the ground within a radius of several meters, sending soil and rocks flying everywhere.

Sakura lifted her fist from the rubble and looked at Ino again.

Ino also subconsciously swallowed.

This stark contrast undoubtedly caused many viewers to briefly lose their composure before bursting into excited shouts.

I never imagined that this seemingly cute and delicate little girl could be so terrifying.

"Isn't this Tsunade's monstrous strength?"

Mei Terumi stared wide-eyed at Tsunade and said, "She's also your disciple?"

Tsunade was speechless. This guy had been in Konoha for so long, yet he hadn't done any research at all.

"Strictly speaking, he should be considered Aoba's disciple."

After all, she was just giving some pointers; the main teaching work was still being carried out by Shirokumo Aoba.

"Huh?!"

Mei Terumi cried out in surprise, her eyes widening in disbelief as she murmured to herself.

"So they're actually in a teacher-student relationship?"

"Cough cough!"

Hearing Mei Terumi muttering to herself, Tsunade couldn't help but cough lightly.

She always had the feeling that she had been chosen by the other person.

"what happened to you?"

Mei Terumi looked at Tsunade with a puzzled expression.

Tsunade said with a stern face, "Just watch the game properly and stop thinking about these random things."

"Oh."

Seeing Tsunade's stern face, Mei Terumi pursed her lips and didn't say anything more.

On the field.

Ino used her skills to fight and retreat, trying to avoid physical confrontation.

Fortunately, Sakura wasn't very fast.

Ino can use ninja tools, clone techniques, and substitution techniques to deal with Sakura.

However, after dozens of rounds, Ino seized a crucial opportunity.

Standing behind Sakura, he formed a hand seal.

"The Art of Mind Transference!"

"Sakura, I won!"

Ino immediately smiled confidently; she was very confident in her Mind Transfer Technique.

If Sakura falls under her spell, she can do whatever she wants to Sakura.

Although she is not as strong as Sakura in direct combat, she is a ninja who fights with her brain.

Sakura was also caught off guard and was hit on the spot.

To be precise, she deliberately fell for it.

Ino's spirit entered Sakura's body and took control of her, making her want to surrender on the spot.

"I……"

She just hadn't had a chance to say the words "admit defeat".

Ryouki, who had been lying in wait, finally made her move.

"Jie Jie Jie!"

She secretly reached out and grabbed Ino's spirit body, chuckling eerily.

"Ino, you lost!"

"?"

Ino was a little confused.

Looking at the enormous Ryougi in front of him.

What's going on?

Who am I? Where am I? Who is speaking?

……

……

The battle sequence got a bit rambling, and before I knew it, I'd written a whole long paragraph. I'll try to cut it short later.
