A Journey to the Heavens Beginning with Pirates

It wasn't just Kakashi who was stimulated.

Sasuke's previous speed can already explain a lot of problems.

But before, Sasuke was obviously not that strong.

The person who feels this most deeply is Xiao Li.

A month ago, before the first test of the Chunin Exams, he challenged Sasuke.

At that time, Sasuke was caught off guard, and under the pressure of his Taijutsu, he was in a very embarrassed state. If Naruto hadn't taken action in the end, he might have been seriously injured by himself.

And what about Sasuke today?He specializes in physical training, so he knows better than others how difficult it is to achieve Sasuke's speed just now.

At the very least, he couldn't do it.

Is this a talented player...

Everyone has become so strong, Naruto is like this, Sakura is like this, Sasuke is like this...

Xiao Li's hand held the crutch tightly, and blood gradually seeped out of the bandage.

His teacher Metkai noticed something strange about Xiao Li, but he had nothing to say and could only sigh in his heart.

As a teacher, he knew very well how desperate Xiao Li was during training.

However, Xiao Li, who was now practicing hard, saw Naruto and the other three surpassing him one after another.

So this kid was a little mentally unbalanced for a while...

In the contestant viewing stand, Temari and Kankuro looked at Gaara lying on the ground in shock, unable to believe their eyes.

At the same time, sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Gaara, don't go too far, put the overall situation first...

Gaara, who was knocked down, seemed to be stunned, and seemed to be unable to believe the truth. He crawled on the ground for a few seconds before slowly using his hands to support himself from the ground.

At this time, Gaara was humming, as if he had been stimulated by something, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.

He looked at Sasuke in disbelief. This taijutsu and speed reminded him of his thick eyebrows before. No, Sasuke was faster than him!

"Uh--"

Gaara suddenly covered his head with his hands, looking like he was in pain, and saliva even flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Looking at Gaara who was extremely mentally unstable, Sasuke stood cautiously and did not step forward.

He still remembered what Naruto reminded him before, Gaara also has a tailed beast in his body.

Temari and Kankuro looked at Gaara, who might have a mental breakdown at any time, and sweated in their hands. This was not only the fear of Gaara in this state, but also the worry that something would go wrong in the secret mission.

In this mission, Gaara, no, more accurately, it should be the monster inside Gaara, but the point is...

Fortunately, Gaara's state was only temporary. After a few seconds, he put down the hand covering his head.

At this moment, he seemed to remember that he was fighting someone. He looked around and finally found Sasuke standing not far away, staring at him warily.

He smiled cruelly, controlled the sand, and rushed towards Sasuke, trying to pull him into the sea of ​​sand.

Waves of sand rushed away, but Sasuke easily avoided them all.

Then he stepped on his feet frequently, and as his steps changed and circuitous, the distance between him and Gaara became closer and closer.

And when Gaara found out, it was already too late, because at this time, Sasuke was already around him.

Seeing this, Sasuke's legs suddenly exerted force, his speed increased greatly, and he was immediately close to Gaara, and then punched Gaara in the face.

At that moment, the wind listened, the sand fell, and time seemed to stand still.

Even the audience's breath stopped.

Ah, no, it was because of the tense atmosphere that the audience held their breath unconsciously.

It's obviously just an ordinary punch, and the location of the punch is also the most commonly attacked part - the face, but why is the atmosphere so weird...

Gaara, who received Sasuke's punch, immediately left the ground with his feet and flew out. When he landed, the remaining strength caused him to rub against the ground for a while before he came to a complete stop.

After lying flat on the ground for a few seconds, Gaara stood up again.

This was the second time in this battle that he was knocked to the ground, and the enemy only took action twice in total.

Gaara at this time is a little scary. Maybe some timid children may be scared to tears just by taking a look at Gaara now.

It's not that Gaara's current expression is so ferocious, but on his face, where Sasuke just hit, there is a gap that looks like broken ceramics.

Gaara was like a man made of ceramics, and Sasuke's punch just now shattered his face!

Apart from being a jinchuriki, Gaara is a normal human being.

The reason why he has such a scary expression is because he is afraid of being injured and stimulates his spirit, so in daily life, his body is wrapped in a layer of armor of sand.

At this time, the sand armor was easily shattered by Sasuke's punch!

Gaara panted slightly, his bloodshot eyes surrounded by dark circles staring intently at Sasuke.

It was like a hungry beast that was offended by its own food just before eating.

"...Well, as expected, you are very strong. Only when you kill such a prey can you have a stronger sense of presence... oh..."

Hearing this, Sasuke's expression changed slightly. This man seemed to be mentally disturbed...

But he didn't have time to think about it at this time, because the sand scattered on the ground began to flow again.

But this time, Gaara used sand that he had assimilated on the spot for his attack, and the sand that he had kept in the gourd to be nourished by chakra had another use.

I saw some sand that was darker in color, inspired by Gaara, and kept gathering towards him.

The gathered sand slowly piled up the mold around Gaara's body, and finally formed a hemispherical shield that protected Gaara's entire body.

This is the absolute defense of sand!

In fact, there are not many so-called absolute defenses in the ninja world, but there are also quite a few. In the final stage of the Chunin Examination, which has just gone through three duels, there have already been two.

One is the Hyuga clan's secret method of returning to heaven that Neji used before, and the other is Gaara's Sand Guardian in front of him.

The more famous ones are Susanoo with the Kaleidoscope, the Eight-foot Mirror, the third uncle who comes to repair the door (sometimes the fifth uncle also comes to help repair the door) and so on.

But in fact, these so-called absolute defenses are the only ones whose defense has not been broken yet...

It is said that it is an absolute defense, but in fact there is a threshold. If it exceeds this threshold, it will completely collapse.

But for the genin class, Gaara's Sunako and Neji's Kaiten at this stage are not bad at claiming absolute defense.

If you don't play with the idiots, Susanoo and Rashomon can be considered a foolproof defense.

(Huh? It seems like Susanoo himself is a cheater?)

Looking back to the field, Sasuke saw Gaara's movements and wanted to stop him, but when Gaara was gathering sand, he was also controlling ordinary sand to attack Sasuke crazily.

Several streams of sand kept hitting Sasuke, trying to bury him in the sand. Sasuke could only keep dodging. In the end, he could only watch Gaara's absolute defense complete.

Temari and Kankuro looked shocked. They didn't expect that Sasuke would force Gaara to use this move with only two attacks.

However, it seems that Gaara used this technique at this time, which means that he has forgotten the existence of the mission.

Gaara!Now is not the time for this move!

And just as they were thinking this, the fine sand floating in the air began to gather above the spherical shell that formed an absolute defense.

In the air, a small vortex made of sand gradually formed.

The sand gathered more and more, and in a moment, a human eyeball appeared there.

Seeing this eyeball appear, Temari and Kankuro had no luck anymore. They understood that Gaara was determined to use that technique.

Gee, this is going to be a bit troublesome...

Facing the spherical shell, Sasuke felt the feeling of being watched after the Eye of Sand appeared.

He looked at the sand shield without any gaps and frowned slightly.

Immediately, he rushed towards the ball shell, attacked tentatively, and punched the ball shell.

But just before he hit the ball shell, many sharp sand thorns suddenly protruded from the ball shell.

Because the incident happened so suddenly, Sasuke didn't have time to avoid it, and a gash was cut on his face.

Seeing this, he retreated decisively and tried to attack in other directions, but it was the same as before.

No matter where he attacks from, spikes appear.

Gaara, who was hiding in the ball shell, continued to seal, as if he was preparing some incredible technique.

Sasuke looked at the seemingly unsolvable ball shell in front of him and fell into deep thought.

He fell into deep thought not because there was no way, but because he was choosing which method to use.

To others, this was a desperate defense, but to him, there were multiple solutions.

The first of course is Amaterasu, who is said to be incombustible and inextinguishable. Sasuke is sure that Amaterasu can easily burn out the Sand Guardian in front of him.

The second type, of course, is the Chidori. With the piercing power of the Chidori, it is easy to break this sand shield.

Well, after thinking about it, Sasuke felt that Chidori was more powerful. No, Chidori was more effortless.

After thinking about this, Sasuke leaned down slightly, holding the wrist of his right hand with his left hand, and chakra began to flow to his right hand.

Seeing Sasuke's actions, the audience became excited. Before, Sasuke was stunned in place, and they thought he had no way to defend Gaara. Now it seems that Sasuke has thought of a way to break the situation.

Kakashi fell into silence looking at the slightly familiar forward swaying posture. That couldn't be...Chidori...

Just when he had this idea, Sasuke's right hand suddenly lit up with a blue-white arc of electricity, followed by a sharp squeaking sound like a thousand birds chirping at the same time.

This is, Thunder Escapes Thousand Birds!

Kakashi's original ninjutsu!

...what a thousand birds...

Looking at Sasuke using Chidori, Kakashi was speechless for a long time. He should have many topics in common with Jiraiya at this time...
