Chapter 740 Shadows Also Have Differences
"The Third Raikage wins!"
Hearing the referee's voice on the radio, the Cloud Hidden Ninjas calmed down.
Might Guy opened the Rock Breathing Chakra Mode and the Seventh Gate of the Eight Gates of the Ninja immediately, and his performance was really brutal.
Adding to the newly demonstrated abilities, the Cloud Hidden Ninjas were really worried about their own Raikage.
It's not that they don't have confidence in the Third Raikage, but the performance of the geniuses in the martial arts meeting is too abnormal.
"I said that the Third Raikage can't lose."
"Yes, the Third Raikage has the strongest lightning armor and is the strongest physical ninja."
The Cloud Hidden Ninjas congratulated the Third Raikage's victory as if nothing had happened, as if the worried expression just now was made to give face to the opponent.
"Even his father was injured. When fighting with me, he didn't use his full strength."
The Fourth Ai in the audience clenched his fists tightly with a solemn expression.
He was very unwilling.
As a member of the new AB combination of the Hidden Cloud Village, he will take over the responsibility of the Raikage in the future, but he was defeated by a talented boy from Konoha, who had not even used his full strength.
The fourth generation Ai made up his mind that he would increase the amount of training and spend more time on cultivation to become stronger.
The several Kages in the stands were shocked when they saw that Might Guy's last blow actually injured the Third Generation Raikage.
"This Might Guy's strength is also above the Wind Kage and the Water Kage."
Ohnoki thought in his heart.
With the strength shown by Might Guy, if he met the Third Generation Water Kage or Rasa, he would most likely win.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stroked his long beard, and his slightly raised mouth corners were full of smiles. He was very satisfied with Might Guy's performance.
Although they both practiced the Eight Gates, Might Guy and Might Guy were not at the same level.
"Thanks to Mu Yue."
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed in his heart.
There were only three Kages in the top eight of the martial arts competition, but four of them were disciples of Mu Yue.
The excellence of one disciple may be due to the disciple's own ninja talent, but if all four disciples are so excellent, it is not just talent.
It is true that Obito and his friends are talented, but Mu Yue is definitely an excellent teacher who is good at helping people develop their potential, otherwise he would not be able to do this.
After all, Mu Yue's teaching achievements are not limited to Obito and his friends.
Sarutobi Hiruzen dare not say how much he knows about others, but how can he not know Asuma? Without Mu Yue, Asuma would definitely not be at this level now.
"Sure enough, there is a gap between the shadows. Akai, who has mastered the armed color, also lost."
Obito said in the lounge.
With his understanding of Rasa's strength, Might Guy just now can definitely defeat Rasa.
But such Might Guy is still a long way from the third generation Raikage.
"Of course, if every shadow has the strength of Teacher Mu Yue, the terrain of the ninja world will become a mess if there are too many wars."
Shisui nodded and said.
The battle between Mu Yue and Uchiha Madara turned everything on the battlefield into ruins, and a large amount of ground collapsed.
"Shisui, how confident are you of winning?"
Obito asked curiously.
Shisui's battle was in the second round. After the battle site was repaired, it was Shisui's turn.
"Almost impossible."
Shisui shook his head and replied.
Ohnoki was as famous as the Third Raikage. He was strong and had rich combat experience. Shisui couldn't think of how to beat Ohnoki in the ring.
If it was a life-and-death battle, Shisui might rely on the Mangekyō ability to fight Ohnoki.
After all, he had two lives with the God Emperor's Spirit Master, plus Tsukuyomi and Susanoo, it was hard to say who would win or lose.
But there was no need for this in the martial arts tournament.
Shisui didn't even want to use Tsukuyomi in this battle. One was that he had used Tsukuyomi in the previous battle and was still recovering.
The second was that Tsukuyomi alone was not enough, so he simply didn't use all the Mangekyō abilities.
The time of chatting passed quickly, and before we knew it, the battle field had been repaired.
"Contestant No. 17 Uchiha Shisui vs. Contestant No. 25 Ohnoki-sama!"
After hearing his name, Shisui stood up, said hello to Obito and Kakashi, and walked towards the battle field.
On the other side, Ohnoki did not take the passage, but directly condensed chakra, used the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique to fly up, and landed steadily on the battle field.
Ohnoki's move did not cause disgust among the audience, but instead caused a cheer.
As the Tsuchikage who is feared by the ninja world, it is reasonable to have a different way of appearance.
Ohnoki put his hands behind his back and looked at Shisui carefully.
Among the four Konoha geniuses in the quarterfinals, Shisui's performance is currently the worst.
There is no big scene destruction, basically they collided for a few rounds, and then the opponent was inexplicably defeated.
As the Tsuchikage who has been in the ninja world for decades, Ohnoki is not as superficial as ordinary ninjas. He will not think that Shisui's strength is not as good as others just because Shisui did not use large-scale ninjutsu.
The battle between ninjas is not a contest of destructive power or pure chakra. There are too many factors that determine the victory or defeat of ninjas.
"We must be careful to deal with illusions that can hurt Jinchūriki."
Onoki thought carefully.
After contacting Kirigakure, Ohnoki knew that Shisui's strength was seriously underestimated.
After the Third Ninja World War, Yagura Karatachi became a Jinchūriki and successfully controlled the Tailed Beast.
Kutachi Yagura was already very powerful, and now with the help of the Three-Tails, he is theoretically much stronger than the Third Mizukage.
As a result, in the battle with Shisui, Kutachi Yagura was defeated before he even used the power of the Tailed Beast.
"The battle begins!"
The referee gave the order.
Ohnoki and Shisui burst out chakra at the same time.
Shisui used the instant body technique to move forward, and his eyes turned into blood-red Mangekyō Sharingan when he attacked Ohnoki.
Ohnoki once again performed the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique and flew directly into the sky.
"Earth Style: Gouri Style Technique!"
A large amount of chakra burst out from Ohnoki's body, spitting out huge rocks, and quickly formed a giant rock monster.
Shisui was not unfamiliar with this ninjutsu, and Huangtu also used this ninjutsu when fighting with Obito.
However, Ohnoki's was just a little more powerful than Huangtu's, there was no essential difference.
While Ohnoki's rock monster attacked Shisui, he used other earth escape ninjutsu to force Shisui to the corner of the venue step by step.
"Flame Breathing Chakra Mode!"
Shisui concentrated his breathing to the extreme and entered the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode, and his momentum suddenly increased.
"Fire escape · Blue Flame · Great Fireball!"
Shisui condensed a huge amount of chakra in his throat and spit out a blue flame, which quickly formed a blue fireball as big as a human head.
His blue flame has reached a proficiency level of more than 700, and he can make some preliminary changes, such as releasing it in the form of a great fireball to enhance the explosive power.
Boom! !
Although it is only the size of a human head, the blue flame great fireball shows extremely terrifying power.
The huge rock monster was destroyed in an instant, and extremely terrifying burn marks were left on the ground. Ohnoki quickly pulled away from the explosion to avoid being affected.
After the crisis was resolved, Shisui did not exit the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode, but took advantage of the victory and instantly released three great dragon fires towards Ohnoki.
"Dust Release: Original Realm Stripping Technique!"
Facing Shisui who showed his true power, Ohnoki also used his Blood Elimination Technique, which shocked the ninja world, and easily blocked the fire dragon, and then shot it towards Shisui with the remaining power, forcing Shisui to dodge with the body-flickering technique.
Shisui's Fire Release in the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode is quite powerful, but it is still much worse than the Blood Elimination Dust Release.
The power of the blue flame is not small, but the consumption of chakra is too great.
Although Ohnoki has the upper hand, every move is extremely cautious, not giving Shisui any chance.
Shisui, who did not use the Mangekyō ability, could not hold on, and was defeated by Ohnoki with Earth Release after consuming most of his chakra.
"Lord Ohnoki wins!"
The referee quickly announced the result of the battle.
The victorious Ohnoki did not show a happy expression, but frowned slightly.
"You didn't use that illusion, did you not find an opportunity, or did you deliberately want to hide your strength?"
Ohnoki analyzed in his heart.
If it is the former, then we can analyze some information about Shisui's powerful illusion based on this battle, such as the effective distance and conditions for the ninjutsu.
If it is the latter, it is hard to say.
"As expected of our Tsuchikage-sama, he won easily."
The Iwagakure ninjas in the audience all raised their heads and chests.
The Third Raikage defeated Might Guy but was injured, while Ohnoki defeated Shisui without any injury. It is clear who is more powerful.
The Kirigakure ninjas and the Sand Village ninjas said nothing, lowered their heads slightly, and tried to reduce their presence as much as possible.
Among the five shadows on the field, only the Third Mizukage and the Fourth Kazekage lost. Even if they wanted to speak for their own village, they had no confidence.
Although the battle of the Third Hokage has not yet begun, everyone assumes that the Third Hokage will win.
In addition to the fact that Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength has been recognized by many ninjas, it is also related to Sarutobi Hiruzen's opponent.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's opponent is a genius from his own ninja village.
Even if Kakashi still had some hidden strength, it would be difficult for him to defeat Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of everyone and make the Hokage lose face.
"No. 33 contestant Sarutobi Hiruzen vs. No. 41 contestant Hatake Kakashi!"
After the venue was repaired, the referee quickly read out the names of the contestants.
In the lounge, Kakashi stood up calmly and walked towards the passage.
He didn't care much about the ranking.
After all, he was in the top eight in the last Youth Martial Arts Tournament, and he was still in the top eight this time when all five Kages participated, which was enough to prove his progress in the past few years.
"Sandaime-sama."
After arriving at the battle site and seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen, Kakashi politely greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen.
After all, he was the Kage of his own village, even if he was not the current Hokage, he should still be respected.
Sarutobi Hiruzen responded with a kind smile.
"Kakashi, don't worry about my identity, just go all out."
Sarutobi Hiruzen kindly reminded.
He was very satisfied with Kakashi's performance and was ready to give him some pointers in this battle.
Kakashi and Obito's battle was watched carefully by Sarutobi Hiruzen, who found some of their shortcomings.
"Then I'm sorry, Mr. Sandaime."
Kakashi didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.
"The battle begins!"
At the referee's command, Kakashi drew out the Yama behind him and rushed towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Facing a strong player like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Kakashi still preferred to use Yama.
"Wind Style: Cyclone!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen calmly spit out a powerful hurricane, which made Kakashi pause in his charge.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Then Sarutobi Hiruzen concentrated his chakra and created two shadow clones.
"Compound Ninjutsu: Earth Dragon Flame Flow!"
One of the two shadow clones used Earth Dragon Bomb and the other used Fire Style, creating an earth dragon that continuously spewed out flame mud bombs.
Due to the high-temperature flames and the large number of them, Kakashi did not take it head-on, but chose to concentrate his breathing to increase his speed and dodge.
If he used his Armament Haki with all his strength, he would definitely be able to withstand it, but it would save more chakra to dodge.
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bomb!"
This time, Sarutobi Hiruzen used Fire Style to spit out a large amount of high-temperature flames, forming a sea of fire at a very fast speed.
Then one of the shadow clones used Wind Style to blow up a hurricane to expand the fire.
The other shadow clone used Lightning Style with a wide range to compress Kakashi's dodge range.
Faced with this large-scale ninjutsu blockade, Kakashi was also a bit troubled.
It was the most annoying to encounter such an opponent in the ring match, and there was no place to hide.
"Yang Seal·Release!"
Kakashi removed the seal and entered the Lightning Breathing Chakra mode with the help of the large amount of chakra in the seal, constantly increasing the power in his body.
Zizizi! !
Kakashi activated a large amount of Lightning Chakra to activate his whole body, thereby greatly improving his physical ability.
The breathing method and Lightning Chakra activated the power of the body, coupled with the powerful Lightning Sword Technique and Yanma, Kakashi rushed out of the ninjutsu encirclement without injury.
"Spirit Summoning Technique!"
A smile flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, and he slapped the ground fiercely to summon the Monkey Demon.
Then the Monkey Demon, who had turned into a Vajra Ruyi Stick, attacked Kakashi.
Bang!
Kakashi used Yanma to take the stick head-on, and the whole person flew backwards and embedded in the wall at the edge of the venue.
"What a strong power."
Kakashi was secretly shocked.
He had heard that Sarutobi Hiruzen's power was not simple, but Kakashi did not expect that Sarutobi Hiruzen was already old, and his power was still so terrifying that he could not even withstand him in the Lightning Breathing Chakra mode.
However, Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a position to give instructions, and did not pursue the victory. Kakashi quickly adjusted his state and rushed out of the wall.
Then the two started fighting again.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen always had the upper hand, he only stopped at a certain point and always gave Kakashi a chance to fight again.
Until 20 minutes later, Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Kakashi's chakra strength was a little exhausted, so he really showed his full strength and defeated Kakashi with a crushing blow.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen wins!"
The referee announced.
"This Kakashi is a loser, he was beaten into the wall."
Obito laughed secretly in the lounge, but also felt a little sorry.
If the camera in the lounge was not good, he would definitely take a beautiful photo of Kakashi when Kakashi was beaten into the wall.
Thinking of this, Obito glanced at Nagato.
Now there are only two of them in the players' lounge, and it will be their turn soon.
