Naruto: My mother, Haruno Sakura, is so smart that she is almost a demon
Chapter 61: Preliminary Round Begins, Tenten vs. Temari
Neji and his team gave up the plan to go to the central tower early, and rested on the spot with the remaining three teams.
The next day, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Twelve Young Warriors of Konoha finally arrived at the central tower at the last moment before the end of the exam.
A group of boys and girls of similar age reached their destination while bickering with each other as if they were on a hike.
But unlike the relaxed atmosphere of Sakura and the others, Gekko Hayate, the examiner of the third round, was really sweating.
If they hadn't come today, there would only be three teams left that passed the second exam;
The only Konoha team is a civilian team that has failed the exam seven times. If the Twelve Young Warriors cannot pass the second round of exams, do they have to watch six foreigners show off their skills on the Konoha field in the third round?
It is said that Gekko Gale has never seen such a scene before. Even in the history of the entire ninja world, it is quite explosive!
It has to be said that the history of the ninja world is still too short. Things like "No Country Team in the Bird's Nest" or "No Koreans Left in Seoul" are no longer uncommon on Blue Star.
With the arrival of Sakura and the others, the number of people who passed the second round increased from 9 to 21, just like in the anime.
So, naturally, a preliminary round should be held first to eliminate half of the ninjas.
With Yakushi Kabuto's logical decision to withdraw from the competition, everything proceeded as planned...
------
As the names on the big screen began to flash, the final result did not change:
Sasuke vs Akado Kai;
Sasuke is now even stronger than in the anime. Although he is still unable to use ninjutsu, his Sharingan is not completely unusable because of his enhanced mental strength.
Sasuke killed Akado Kai in an instant without even using the "Lion Bullet". He just used the illusion "Magical Bixie" to deal with his opponent.
"Bixi" is a genjutsu developed by Sasuke and Sakura. Sasuke used this trick against Orochimaru.
Since the creativity mainly came from Sasuke, and Sakura only put forward some suggestions on creating illusions, it can also be said to be Sasuke's own original illusion.
Although the person who was hit might not be able to see it, Sasuke still constructed the Uchiha clan emblem with a round fan on the stone tablet carried by the Pixi. This move was prepared by Sasuke for Itachi, and it is self-evident what the huge stone tablet with the Uchiha clan emblem represents.
In fact, contrary to what most people think, Sasuke's talent for illusion is actually not low.
After all, he is the reincarnation of Indra, so he cannot be weak in Yin chakra.
It was only more than half a month from the time Sasuke opened his Mangekyō to the Five Kage Summit. In such a short period of time, Sasuke mastered many kinds of illusions and was even able to instantly kill a jonin-level illusion ninja like Itachi.
The main reason for Sasuke's poor performance in illusion is that when he was in Konoha, he could not inherit the orthodox Sharingan illusion like Uchiha Itachi did; when he went to Orochimaru, Orochimaru seemed to teach Sasuke a lot of skills, but this might not be without the intention of preventing Sasuke from over-developing the Sharingan. If Sasuke grew up to be an illusion master like Itachi, how could Orochimaru take over his body?
"Teacher Kakashi, Sasuke seems to be dying, you should take him to seal the curse quickly."
After defeating Akado Kai, Sasuke's body was covered with black spells again, and Sakura became a little worried about him.
As the co-developer of "Magical Bixie", Sakura, who does not have the Sharingan, can also activate this illusion by making hand seals, so she knows that the consumption of this illusion is not low. She estimates that Sasuke is on the verge of going berserk again.
Kakashi nodded as well and took Sasuke away to perform the Evil Sealing Seal.
There is not much to say about the second qualifying match that started immediately:
Saku vs. Aburame Shino;
Sack was so angry that he blew his hands off.
Sacco also lived up to his name and acted like a clown.
......
Watching the big screen rolling again, Sakura became nervous, because according to the original work, the next pair to appear would be herself and Ino.
Although anyone with a discerning eye could see that the result of the match clearly showed signs of manipulation.
Sakura didn't know whether Konoha would have other arrangements for her, whose strength was completely different from that in the anime.
Soon, the name on the big screen stopped turning:
Haruno Sakura vs. Yamanaka Ino;
After seeing that the result of the match had not changed, Sakura looked at Ino helplessly;
Ino's look was transformed into a monk's, and she looked at the match schedule in disbelief.
Sakura can be said to be the opponent that Ino least wants to meet. This is not only because Sakura is strong and has a good relationship with her, but also because Sakura knows her too well.
When facing other strong enemies, Ino can still hope that the opponent's mental strength is not much stronger than hers, and use the Mind Transformation Technique to steal the victory, but Sakura, who understands the characteristics of the Mind Transformation Technique, will not give her this opportunity.
But Ino, who was strong-willed, would not give up easily, and she made up her mind and jumped off the stands.
"Come on, Ino!
you can!
Brave Ino, don't be afraid of Yingying! "
Ino kept encouraging herself in her heart.
However, ideals are full and reality is skinny; determination only added a little to Ino's strength, and Sakura defeated Ino without much effort.
In order not to hurt Ino, Sakura simply used an illusion to make Ino faint, and did not cause too much damage to Ino's spirit.
After Gekko Hayate announced Sakura as the winner, Sakura woke up Ino without hesitation, put her arm around Ino's shoulders and walked back to the second-floor stands.
"Damn it, Sakura, how come you are so strong!"
On the way, Ino grumbled to Sakura in dissatisfaction.
Although she was very unwilling, Ino was not someone who could not afford to lose.
"This is all the result of my hard work. Ino, your strength has not improved for a long time. Sasuke will not choose a meaningless vase as a partner!"
Sakura felt that compared to Hinata, Ino was indeed a bit slack in her training, and wanted to urge Ino to practice harder.
Ino remained silent in response to Sakura's words.
In fact, she had never paid much attention to training until now she could feel that not only Sakura, but also Hinata, Kiba, Shino, Sasuke, and even Naruto, whom she had always looked down upon, were making progress. If she continued like this, she would only fall further and further behind.
Watching my friends grow stronger and stronger, the distance between me and them grows farther and farther. So this is what it feels like...
Until this moment, Ino felt that she seemed to understand why Sakura chose to practice independently.
"Sakura, I want to become stronger, can you help me?"
At this time, Ino had made up her mind, but the Yamanaka clan's ninjutsu was not particularly powerful in single-player combat. Most of them were used for torture and stealing intelligence. If Ino wanted to become stronger, she had to find another way.
"What are you talking about? We are good sisters, there is no way I won't help you!"
Sakura pinched Ino's face and told her not to be so serious.
In fact, Sakura had already planned a plan to strengthen Ino.
------
"Temari vs Tenten"
As the names of the next group of opponents appeared, two figures jumped off the stands and prepared for battle in the field.
"Game start!"
Following Hayate's command, Tenten and Temari jumped back quickly at the same time.
Sakura, who was watching this scene in the stands, couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong, Sakura? Is there a problem?"
Ino who was standing next to her noticed the change in Sakura's expression.
"Yes, if we keep our distance, Tiantian will be in trouble..."
"How could that be? You know Tenten's ninja tool throwing skills. She should have the advantage at a long distance!"
Ino was confused by what Sakura said.
"That's because that woman is also good at long-range attacks. The big fan in her hand looks like a ninja tool for performing wind escape..."
Shikamaru answered Ino's question for Sakura.
"Moreover, at long distances, wind-style ninjutsu can be said to be the nemesis of ninja tools. In strong winds, the flight trajectory of ninja tools will be affected by the wind."
Sakura continued to explain after Shikamaru's words:
"Tenten's physical fitness should be comparable to Temari's. If they choose close combat from the beginning and don't give Temari the opportunity to use ninjutsu, Tenten's chance of winning will be very high.
After all, her master is the best taijutsu expert in Konoha."
Hearing this, Ino, Choji and Naruto around them swallowed involuntarily.
What is going on with these two people? Why can so much information be inferred from just one jump?
The gap between people is sometimes even bigger than that between people and dogs. (Akamaru: Woof woof woof?)
The battle is going to go just as Shikamaru and Sakura said:
The fan in Temari's hand opened slightly, revealing a star inside. Then, she gently waved the fan, and a whirlwind swept out, easily knocking down all the ninja tools thrown by Tenten.
Such a result was not enough to make Tiantian give up. Although the wind ninjutsu launched by the fan in Temari's hand restrained herself, she also knew that each time the fan was waved, it would take a certain amount of time to prepare. Therefore, Tiantian decided to speed up the frequency of attacks.
She believed that if she didn't have time to use her ninjutsu, she would be able to break through the opponent's defense.
Tenten held the scroll in her hand and leaped into the air without hesitation. When she reached a certain height, the long scroll quickly unfolded in the air. Tenten used both hands to continuously take out a handful of ninja tools from the unfolded sealing scroll, and then threw them at Temari with all her strength.
At once, densely packed ninja tools flew towards Temari, and the scene was quite spectacular.
However, Temari seemed to have anticipated this. She opened her fan again, revealing two stars. As Temari swung it forward, a stronger gust of wind whistled out of the fan and rushed towards Tenten. This gust of wind was even more powerful than the previous whirlwind, and it mercilessly blew away the ninja tools that flew towards her one by one.
Although Tenten's attacks were already very frequent, Temari was able to successfully fend off Tenten's offensive by increasing the power of her ninjutsu.
"Damn it, I can summon more ninja tools!
Double Rising Dragon!
Tiantian widened his eyes, clenched his teeth, took out two scrolls from his waist again, and quickly formed seals.
As Tiantian completed the seal, a cloud of smoke rose into the sky, and gradually gathered into two long flying dragons. The two dragons carried two scrolls around Tiantian and flew into the sky.
Soon, the flying dragon formed by the smoke dissipated, leaving only two unfolded scrolls entwined in the air; Tiantian jumped up without hesitation, leaped lightly into the air, and dived between the circling and dancing scrolls.
Tenten quickly took out various ninja tools from two scrolls and threw them at Temari; her hands moved even faster than before, leaving a series of blurry afterimages.
The sky above the field was instantly filled with all kinds of ninja tools, including sharp kunai, small shurikens, pointed darts, spinning frisbees, etc.; these ninja tools flew towards Temari densely, like a black rainstorm.
Facing this black rain of steel, Temari's expression became serious; she realized that she could no longer underestimate Tenten's attack, and finally fully unfolded the fan in her hand, showing its true power.
"Three Star Fan - Kamaitachi Jutsu!"
Temari shouted, and the fan in her hand began to whip up a gust of wind like crazy;
The ninjutsu whizzed by, carrying with it great power and destructive force.
This time, the strong wind from the fan covered almost 180 degrees in front of Temari. Under Temari's wind escape, many ninja tools lost their power and fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of "ding ding dang dang".
"It's not over yet!"
Tiantian, who was still in the air, had not given up yet. He crossed his hands in front of himself and curled his fingers into claws.
At this time, the people watching the game discovered that Tiantian's hands were tied with steel wires.
Temari also noticed that Tenten wanted to control the ninja tools on the ground to attack her again, but Temari would never let Tenten succeed.
"Wind Style: Great Scythe Weasel Technique!"
Temari just stuck the fan into the ground and made a few seals with her hands.
When Tenten saw Temari preparing to perform a ninjutsu, his heart tightened, and his original idea of using steel wire to control the ninja tools to attack disappeared without a trace in an instant.
No matter what ninjutsu Temari is about to use, its power will definitely exceed the wind escape technique just now. If she really uses this move, I will definitely not be able to resist it.
Now that it has come to a matter of life and death, there is no need to hold back any cards.
Tenten made a prompt decision, took out the Colt Python from his arms without hesitation, and shot Temari in the thigh.
"Bang!" The deafening sound of gunfire echoed in the air.
Except for Sakura, everyone present was stunned by this sudden change. The bullet flew towards Temari at an alarming speed, and in the blink of an eye, the bullet pierced Temari's thigh.
Temari showed an expression of disbelief on her face and slowly moved her gaze to her thighs.
"If you don't want to get seriously injured, just admit defeat!"
Tenten, who fell to the ground, raised the still smoking pistol in his hand and aimed at Temari's chest.
"Tiantian wins!"
"I lose every day."
Xiao Li's excited voice and Xiao Sakura's slightly regretful voice sounded at the same time.
The people around looked at Sakura with confusion, but before Sakura could explain, the situation on the field reversed again.
"Wind Style: Great Scythe Weasel Technique!"
Temari's figure suddenly appeared from behind the fan, raised the fan, and fanned out a fierce whirlwind, attacking Tenten.
Tenten quickly turned the gun around and shot at Temari.
But it was still of no avail, the bullet did not penetrate the Great Scythe Itachi Technique that was wrapped in countless wind blades.
As expected, Tenten was blown away by the sickle-weasel.
In order to prevent the wind blade from continuing to cause damage to Tenten, Sakura decisively wrapped her skin with a thin layer of carbon fiber protective film, and then catapulted into the whirlwind to save Tenten.
The strength of carbon fiber is more than 5 times that of high carbon steel, so it is no problem to use it to temporarily support the wind blade.
Seeing that Tenten, who was saved by Sakura, had lost his ability to fight, Hayate also announced the result of the game:
"Ahem... Game 4, Temari wins!"
