Konoha's strongest substitute user

Kimimaro, as Orochimaru's former preparation vessel and the owner of the Corpse Vein Bloodline, was even superior to Orochimaru in terms of pure physical skills.

Li is a ninja who has no talent for ninjutsu illusions at all and uses his life to practice the limits of pure physical skills. This battle can be described as a needle-point.

If this battle develops according to the original trajectory, it should be that Lee loses to Kimimaro, Gaara completes the last-minute rescue at the critical moment, and then brings the battle into a duel between the strongest spear and the strongest shield.

However, things changed subtly when Dongxing gave Li the Hanged Man card.

Li worked very hard, and there were basically no ninjas in Konoha Village who could train as hard as Li.

Li has been studying the use of the stand since he obtained it. During the recovery period from surgery, he was unable to perform strenuous physical exercises, so training in the use of the stand became Li's main daily practice. At present, Li understands his stand better than Sakura. too much.

A Thousand Suns and a Flash currently has three restrictions.

First of all, in order to exert the effect of the substitute's finishing blow, there must be a target. The target starts from confirmation. Once the target is changed, all the accumulated power will disappear immediately. To put it simply, if you hit an apple ten times and want to use the accumulated strength to hit a banana, you can't do it. As for the so-called target, as long as it is something that Li can understand and have a concept of, it can be directly achieved through physical skills, and it can be regarded as a whole substance. In other words, it is impossible for Li to target space or directly target the opponent's soul.

Then, if the target moves away from Li a hundred meters away, the accumulated power will disappear immediately.

Finally, this kind of accumulation has a limit, and the limit lies in the fact that the effects of a simple principle are mutual. If the power accumulated by Li is too great and eventually exceeds the range of the stand, Li will be injured due to the overload of the stand. In serious cases, serious injury or even death is possible.

These three points are said to be restrictions, but in fact they are also protections. At least with these restrictions, Li should not die suddenly due to excessive use of a substitute.

The stand-in gave Li too many surprises. The most important point was that the stand-in was also a physical skill, and it was the final move. It was complementary to his physical skills and had no conflict at all.

With just this extra final blow, his combat ability has been greatly increased, not to mention that the double has also enhanced his defensive ability to a certain extent.

Even Teacher Kai said that this substitute is very strong and difficult to deal with.

Li is as confident as Kimimaro opposite him at this moment. In addition to being a substitute, Li also has a special "secret skill" brought by Tarot cards, which is flying. Li has combined this ability to develop some new physical techniques under the guidance of Teacher Kai.

Although Kimimaro is Orochimaru's subordinate, in terms of personality, he is a gentleman.

"Who are you?" Kimimaro asked. Even if he is an enemy, Kimimaro will give him full respect, calmly analyze the enemy's ability, and then defeat him mercilessly.

The strange self-introduction that should have been inherited from Kai came from Li's mouth: "Just recovered from the operation, Konoha's beautiful green beast, Rock Lee."

"Beast...?" After hearing this middle-class self-introduction with a hint of humor, Kimimaro was still analyzing it seriously.

When it comes to beasts, does it mean that it is physically strong or violent in character? Or, it is both.

Analysis is analysis, and the preparation work that needs to be done still needs to be done. The muscles on the arm squirmed, pushing the humerus and ulna to come out of the palm together. The ulna, which had abandoned its good friend the radius, was controlled by Kimimaro's ability. The front end became sharp, and the edge became thin and sharp, merging with the humerus. As one body, it becomes a short sword.

This scene is really beyond the scope of what normal humans can do. Li has never seen anything like this. A person takes out the bones from his body and turns them into a knife, and then removes the parts of the bones as if nothing happened.

In Li's eyes, Kimimaro is weird, but Li himself is not much different in Kimimaro's eyes.

The green substitute floated next to Li, and the green chakra surging around him turned into a layer of mist-like armor.

Since Li has absolutely no talent for Ninjutsu or Illusion, Li's chakra and body are enough to support Li fighting for a long time without using the Eight Gates Armor Technique above the living gate. Now, apart from using powerful Taijutsu, there is no way to do this. There are new jobs for the chakra that can be vented everywhere. In terms of chakra utilization, Li is no longer what he used to be.

substitute

When he got up from the hospital bed, Orochimaru-sama had already told him about the substitute. According to Orochimaru-sama, the substitute is a secret technique with extremely strong physical combat capabilities, and it can change its properties to obtain some ninjutsu. Ability.

Always alert to this, Kimimaro took the lead in launching a tentative attack.

Even if he is not counted as a blood successor and only wields an ordinary blade, Kimimaro is also a master of taijutsu, with fast speed, sharp sword skills, strong reflexes, and a very calm mind in battle.

At this moment, a bone knife was stabbing or cutting in Kimimaro's hand, it was flexible and dangerous.

With Dongxing's encouragement, Li chose to accept Tsunade's surgical treatment without hesitation, and his recovery was almost complete now. Although Kimimaro's attack was fierce, it was still within Li's ability to deal with it.

Speaking of high-speed physical skills, Li is also a master.

Li should have been at a disadvantage when facing Kimimaro's armed attack with his bare hands, but the layer of protection brought by the avatar allowed Li to block the horizontal and vertical slashes of the bone knife with his bare hands, as long as they were not direct thrusts.

Kimimaro soon discovered that Li was afraid of the direct thrust of the bone knife. He held the bone knife and raised his hand: "Dance of Chun."

A bone knife turned into a stabbing sword under the control of Kimimaro's flexible arms, and the continuous stabbing was so fast that it left an afterimage and hit Li's face.

He tilted his head, and the sound of tearing the air caused by the stabbing in his ears sent chills down Li's spine. He narrowly avoided Chun Zhiwu's continuous attacks. Li took a few steps back, but his face was still slightly punctured. Son, oozing blood.

"What a straightforward attack..." Kimimaro looked at the substitute behind Li: "Don't you use that thing?"

Straightforward attack?

I was ridiculed by the enemy for my physical skills...

Li made a starting stance: "Now is not the time to use a substitute. You are also a very strong taijutsu ninja. I look forward to competing with you in taijutsu."

Kimimaro nodded noncommittally and held the bone knife in front of him. For now, the enemy's physical skills had not put any pressure on him.

Seeing that Kimimaro had no intention of taking the initiative to attack, Li Zhu ran for a while and launched a flying kick: "If you don't attack, then I won't be polite."

madness...

Generally speaking, kicks in taijutsu are stronger than fists, but any taijutsu master will pay attention to his center of gravity and the reduced mobility caused by kicks when using kicks. An enemy using a sharp weapon only needs to block the opponent's attack path with the blade to break the attack.

Kimimaro thought so, and the tip of the bone knife was also facing the direction of Li's kick, but contrary to expectations, Li turned directly in mid-air, and a straight flying kick was changed into a sideways roundhouse kick: "Konoha Whirlwind"

Kimimaro tilted his head back to avoid this move, but a question popped up in his heart:

What is the situation and why can this person suddenly turn around in mid-air when there is no point of focus?

But before Kimimaro could think about it, when Li missed the Konoha Tornado with his move, he suddenly accelerated in mid-air to catch up with Kimimaro. He turned sideways and did a forward somersault, feeling comfortable. He unfolded his body, split his legs with one move, and continued to pursue Kimimaro.

Kimimaro raised his bone knife to block the chop, and Li turned again in mid-air. He lifted his leg and changed his body from a forward somersault to a backflip, and followed the trend with an upside down kick.

Kimimaro retreated again, completely unable to understand why.

In this set of consecutive kicks, Rock Li has completed three mid-air turns, and once he suddenly rushed forward for a short distance without any focus.

Li's pursuit continued, and he missed four consecutive kicks. Li simply tapped the ground with his right foot, and Kimimaro couldn't see the substantive effect of this contact with the ground. A sudden acceleration and continued flying kicks in the air. This is a new physical technique created by Li Zaikai under the guidance of the flying ability brought by the Hanged Man. By borrowing force in the air, Li's more powerful leg skills can be brought into full play.

Could it be because the substitute Kimimaro didn't see any signs of using ninjutsu from Li's body? Pure taijutsu would definitely not be able to achieve such movements, so it could only be a substitute. This substitute... seems to have become A little stronger

Li's volley pursuit was exactly as he described himself, like a green beast, and his continuous kicks without any pause seemed to be returning Kimimaro's Chun no Dance move just now.

After continuously retreating and blocking, Kimimaro noticed that the substitute was getting stronger and stronger.

Although I don’t know what the use of a substitute is, I can no longer follow the opponent’s rhythm.

There was a strange squirming movement in the muscles, and long and sharp bone spurs protruded from Kimimaro's elbows, knees, and palms: "Willow Dance."

The enemy suddenly turned into a hedgehog, and Li floated in the air and glanced at the substitute behind him out of the corner of his eye.

It is enough to accumulate strength to this extent.

Kimimaro used the Liu Zhiwu move and felt the opponent's attack stagnant. He thought he had driven back the enemy, but Li's voice reached his ears.

"Crush him in a thousand days and a moment."

"move"

The green stand-in suddenly let out a strange cry, followed by the stand-in that had been motionless and made a fist-clenching motion.

Kimimaro was just about to raise his hand to block the punch. The enemy in his eyes still kept clenching his fist, but he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. Taking advantage of the scenery in front of him, he quickly retreated and was knocked away.

This stand... completed an attack at a speed that he couldn't even react to.

so fast

Seeing the punch hit, Li let out a sigh of relief.

call...

Even Teacher Kai would not be able to survive being hit directly in the chest by such a move without any protection. This was a move that Teacher Kai would praise for its power after watching it.

Kimimaro got up from the ground when Li thought he had won: "Ahem... I thought I was going to die, but luckily I blocked him."

The chest had collapsed. Kimimaro, who was about the thickness of a palm, touched his ribs: "My ability is to control the bones. For ordinary people, the fragile ribs have stronger hardness and toughness than steel in my body. I can control the bones." My ribs are tied together like this, you are really strong.”

It's a silly thing to explain one's own abilities, but since Kimimaro said this, it shows that he has absolute confidence: "I can already see that your substitute will become stronger every time you attack me. , this is your ability, so you won’t have another chance to attack me.”

The "Dance of Karamatsu" curse mark climbed up Kimimaro's chest, and his whole body seemed to go berserk. The bulge under the skin squirmed crazily, followed by dozens of sharp bones piercing through the body. He came out and turned Kimimaro into a hedgehog: "Unless you are willing to be pierced by my bones first."

Li looked at the hedgehog-like Kimimaro, but he didn't feel much panic in his heart.

Although it is troublesome, there are ways to deal with it.

Without any hesitation, Li opened the door. The faster speed and more comfortable body control brought by the Eight Gate Dunjia came into play, and Li continued to use the chain of physical skills flying in the air.

Seeing Li kick him in the head again, Kimimaro sneered and raised his arm, his arm covered with bone spurs in front of him. Sure enough, Li gave up this move and kicked Kimimaro in front of his arm. There was a gust of wind, and the tip of his shoe brushed against the bones of Kimimaro's arm.

After a seemingly missed attack, Li was not discouraged and continued to kick.

This time the kick was not aimed at the head, and Kimimaro didn't even bother to block it.

It's useless...Have you given up because your abilities are restrained?

This kick still rubbed the bones around Kimimaro's body.

When Li launched dozens of attacks in a short period of time, Kimimaro finally felt that something was wrong.

Every attack of this guy has no intention of hitting him. All the attacks are deliberately grazing his body. These are all feints. Where is his stand-in?

After Kimimaro realized that something was wrong, he began to actively move his position to see the substitute hidden behind Li's body, but Li moved completely by flying at an extremely fast speed, and continued to attack around Kimimaro's back.

Kimimaro finally started to take the initiative, catching one of Li's attacks, spinning his body in Karamatsu's dance state, and hitting Li with all the bone spurs on his body.

However, Li took the initiative to avoid this opportunity to hit Kimimaro directly.

It's not that Li didn't want to attack Kimimaro, he had two purposes for doing so.

First, Kimimaro had bone spurs all over his body, and he would be the one injured when kicked.

Second...

Qianhi Yishun's current target is not Kimimaro at all...

But this battlefield, with him as the center, a radius of one hundred meters in the air

Li has already understood the air in this space as a whole, and that air is a kind of gas. This understanding is enough. He can feel the air through his body, so the air can become a target.

Li has kicked this piece of air hundreds of times. This spherical air with a radius of one hundred meters has become a carrier, a powerful bomb.

In Kimimaro's eyes, Li finally stopped from moving at high speed, and the green, strong, and muscular substitute appeared immediately...

And the roar of the enemy:

"An air cannon with a radius of 100 meters will destroy this place in a thousand days."

"move"
