Chapter 477: Everyone doesn't think highly of you, but you are the most promising

However, no one present cared about Mitokado Homura, who was weeping alone in the corner; their attention was all attracted by Akimichi Torifu, who had transformed into a giant.

"Is this the secret technique the Akimichi clan is proud of? Interesting."

Looking at the giant fist descending from the sky, Shi's eyes flashed with strong fighting intent, and thunderous light erupted from his body.

Lightning Armor, activate!

Rumble!

In the next moment, Akimichi Torifu's fist, like a small mountain, fell. The strong impact blew up dust several meters high, instantly swallowing Shi's sturdy figure.

But he didn't show any joy because of this.

Because this punch missed.

"Where did he escape to?"

Akimichi Torifu moved his massive body, looking for the opponent's trace everywhere, but after using the Expansion Technique, his agility dropped sharply, and he became a clumsy target.

"Torifu, be careful!"

The F6 watching from the stage suddenly exclaimed. Before Akimichi Torifu could react, a sharp pain came from his calf.

"Boom!"

He hurriedly turned his head, only to see Shi, who was covered in crackling lightning, having successfully ambushed him, choosing not to continue the pursuit but instead cautiously opening up distance from him.

"Damn it."

Looking at the opponent's lightning-fast movements, Akimichi Torifu knew that maintaining the Expansion Technique would only make him a living target for Shi, so he released the secret technique, and his massive body deflated like a punctured ball, returning to normal size.

"Come again."

Glancing at his bruised calf, Akimichi Torifu, who hated in his heart, clenched his fists the size of sandbags, kicked off with both legs, and disappeared from where he stood. When he appeared, he had already flashed in front of Shi, and his fist, wrapped in light blue chakra, struck directly at the dark face.

The onlookers who didn't know the truth saw this and revealed expressions of astonishment.

This fatty was several heads taller than Shi, and his speed wasn't slow either.

"Well come!"

Seeing this situation, Shi not only didn't dodge but instead grinned, and his iron fist, flashing with thunder, slammed out.

This kind of flesh-hitting battle was exactly what he wanted.

"Boom!"

The two fists of different colors collided, and a dull sound instantly rang in everyone's ears. At the same time, visible air expanded and spread out.

Boom—

The evenly matched two were shaken apart. Akimichi Torifu retreated several steps, a trace of crimson color flashing on his fat face. In contrast, Shi, who only retreated one step, actually showed no abnormality on his dark face.

"Torifu actually lost in strength."

The F6 saw the result of the two fighting for strength and revealed expressions of astonishment in unison. Akimichi Torifu was the strength representative of their combination.

Just talking about strength, he had no rival among his peers.

"You have quite a lot of strength."

Feeling the numbness coming from his fist, Akimichi Torifu's face was full of solemnity. He hadn't encountered an opponent who could contend with him in strength for a long time.

This "frail" Cloud Hidden guy really had two brushes; Homura didn't die in vain.

Mitokado Homura: Please feed me peanuts!

"You saved your life, little fatty."

Shi lowered his fist, a look of contempt floating on his face. He had originally thought the other party could give him a surprise, but it turned out he was only a bit more durable than the glasses guy just now.

If it weren't for his senior brother's instruction not to go too far, this Konoha little fatty would only be able to open a plane with one hand from now on.

"What do you mean?"

Akimichi Torifu heard the subtext in Shi's words and frowned instantly.

"Hmph! If I had been like this just now, you would already be lying in a row with that glasses guy."

Shi snorted with disdain, raised the fist that had just collided with Akimichi Torifu, and slowly opened it. The thunder light erupting from his fingertips was like substance.

Crackle—

"That is?"

"My Hell Stab; even steel can be easily pierced, let alone your mortal body."

Shi scattered the thunder light at his fingertips with a wave of his hand, looking at Akimichi Torifu, whose face was stiff, and shook his head with some regret.

"You should be glad you didn't meet me on the battlefield, otherwise... hehe."

Shi's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing into the hearts of the F6, completely shattering their long-standing pride.

If it were me, could I block that blow?

This unavoidable question, like a shadow that wouldn't go away, shrouded their hearts, and the few fell into a strange silence.

Looking at the suddenly silent F6, Senju Tobirama sighed secretly in his heart and began to reflect on whether he had been too gentle with them usually, so that they began to doubt life when encountering this little setback.

"Cheer up, ninjas are not reckless men; compared to strength, the brain is more important."

No way, in order to enlighten the few disciples whose Dao hearts were unstable, Senju Tobirama had to speak words against his will.

"For example, me, before the village was established, I relied on a smart brain and agile thinking to play my arch-enemies in the palm of my hand."

The F6 heard this, and their complexions improved a bit, and the look of worship toward Senju Tobirama also increased a bit.

"Yes, Teacher is right; the game between ninjas is definitely not just about strength."

However, one person revealed an inexplicable, strange expression after hearing Senju Tobirama's remarks.

"White-hair, how do I remember..."

Uchiha Madara touched his chin in confusion. In his memory, the plot didn't go in this direction.

He remembered very clearly that when Senju Tobirama fought their brothers, most of the time he was hiding behind the wooden man, throwing shuriken, spraying saliva, etc., and never participated in the giant battle head-on.

"Stop, look, Torifu is rushing up again!"

Seeing Uchiha Madara coming to tear down his stage, Senju Tobirama cursed in his heart and immediately changed the subject. Everyone's gaze also shifted to the field.

Boom!

Slap!

Two figures started a head-on confrontation. Akimichi Torifu was completely enraged by Shi's words just now, turning into an angry lion, throwing both fists, and greeting the other party's body with big hands containing the power of expansion.

But Shi was very calm. With the addition of Lightning Armor, his speed was far superior to Akimichi Torifu's. After easily dodging the attack, his iron fist, containing the power of lightning, slammed into the other party's fat belly.

Rumble—

The violent Lightning Release power invaded his body, Akimichi Torifu's meridians were instantly paralyzed, and he fell into a short stagnation. His protective chakra dissipated, and he flew backward after being broken, slamming heavily into the wall of the training ground.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

After rolling to the ground, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a wisp of faint thunder light flashed on his body. The numbness remained.

"Damn it, absolutely cannot lose face for Konoha!"

Facing the terrifying enemy, Akimichi Torifu gritted his teeth and tremblingly fished out a transparent small box from his bosom, inside which lay three pills of different colors.

As expected of the radical Torifu, he had to take drugs even for a sparring match.

"Stop, Torifu."

Seeing the disciple preparing to burn his life, Senju Tobirama frowned, and his whole body turned into a blue light and appeared in front of Akimichi Torifu, reaching out to snatch the secret medicine the other party was preparing to swallow.

"This is just a sparring match."

"Master! I..."

Looking at his disciple, who wore an expression of utter despair, Senju Tobirama sighed.

"To know shame is to be brave; to know weakness is to strive for strength. If you wish to become powerful, the first step is to bravely admit and accept your current weakness."

Akimichi Torifu was left blushing furiously, but he did not retort again; he obediently stood up and followed Senju Tobirama off the field.

"Your disciples are actually quite excellent, it's just a pity they ran into Shi. He is a successor I hold in very high regard."

Seeing his junior brother win two matches in a row, Jin Jiao boasted triumphantly to Senju Tobirama, infuriating the latter to the point where his nose was almost crooked.

The F6 members clenched their fists even tighter, wishing they could land a punch on the smug Jin Jiao.

"Monkey, this guy is a tough nut to crack."

Danzo watched Shi in the arena with a solemn face. This Blackie with muscles like steel was not only as swift as lightning, but the lethality of his moves was also terrifying; he was absolutely a nightmare for conventional ninjas.

"Hoo... Danzo, why don't you go? Try to make him reveal more of his trump cards."

Looking at his friend beside him, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were full of contemplation. Shi was nine times out of ten a Lightning Style ninja, and Danzo's Wind attribute could perfectly counter him. Even if he couldn't win, he could at least scout out some intelligence.

"Huh?"

You thick-browed, big-eyed monkey, you actually learned how to sell out your teammates? What happened to sticking together through thick and thin?

"Why don't you go?"

"Among us, you are the best at using Wind Style. I'm only letting you go because I trust you. Or do you want Koharu to go?"

Utatane Koharu happened to have the Wind attribute as well, but at this moment, she was treating the injuries of the vomiting Akimichi Torifu and could not spare the time.

"But..."

Pouting in a difficult manner, Danzo prepared to argue a bit more, but Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly pointed to the arena.

"Look quickly, it's the bikini-clad cheerleading squad!"

"Where? Where?"

Danzo turned around instantly, and Sarutobi Hiruzen seized the opportunity to deliver a kick straight to his massive buttocks.

"Thump!"

"Hurry up, you lot! Are you planning on being cowards?"

Shi, who had been waiting in the arena for a long time, saw no opponent coming down and immediately began to mock them. Uchiha Madara frowned upon hearing this, his gaze filled with displeasure as it landed on the F6.

"Lord Hokage, I..."

Swept by Uchiha Madara's gaze, Kagami knew he could no longer sit idly by, so he resolutely stood up, prepared to go down and win back some face for Konoha.

"Monkey, I'm going up!"

However, another figure was a step faster than him, landing in the arena first, though his gait was a bit messy, and he nearly fell flat on his face upon landing.

The resentful Danzo turned his head, staring fixedly at the culprit with a look that could kill. He had calculated everything, but he hadn't calculated that his close friend of many years would backstab him.

Shi looked Danzo up and down, his surprised gaze sweeping over his slightly exaggerated buttocks.

"You? You're not even as good as the little fatty from before. Are you coming up here to get beaten?"

"Hmph! Let's see what you're made of in the fight."

Forced into a corner, Danzo knew the principle that even if you lose the fight, you shouldn't lose your composure; there wasn't a trace of cowardice on his face.

Since he was already on the field, he had to finish this fight beautifully, and then settle the score with the monkey after he got back.

"Konoha, Danzo."

Facing the oppressive Blackie, Danzo didn't dare to be the least bit negligent, quickly drawing the Wu Shidao from his back and holding it before him, his black eyes fixed on his opponent's figure.

"Danzo? Never heard of him."

Recalling the name, Shi had no impression of it, and a hint of contempt immediately appeared in his eyes.

Looks like cannon fodder.

"Then I'll play with you for a bit."

Boom—

Dazzling lightning erupted from Shi's body once more. Clad in his lightning armor, he kicked off the ground and vanished from his spot. Danzo's gaze sharpened, and he quickly retreated, attempting to find his opponent's figure.

But after scanning the area, he found nothing.

"What are you looking for?"

The next moment, a playful voice rang out in Danzo's ear, followed immediately by a flash of blinding lightning.

Shi, having circled behind him at some point, laughed strangely and raised his leg, preparing to treat Danzo to a heart-wrenching kick.

"Butt Style: Butt Giant Technique!"

At this critical juncture, Danzo steeled his heart and immediately unleashed his unique secret technique. His already exaggerated buttocks expanded rapidly, tightly clamping Shi's lightning-covered leg in the crack of his rear.

"Huh?"

Feeling his leg clamped into a warm, damp place, Shi stared with wide, bewildered eyes; he had never seen such a bizarre secret technique before.

"So disgusting, let go!"

Soon, Shi recovered from his shock. Imagining where his leg was currently located, he felt a chill run through his entire body.

He immediately increased the power of his lightning armor, and crackling arcs of electricity covered his entire thigh.

For a moment, Danzo's entire rear crack was glowing.

"Hiss..."

The sensation of having his rear crack electrocuted was not pleasant, but Danzo continued to grit his teeth and persist, because he still had a trump card.

Seeing that Danzo had no intention of letting go, Shi wished he could chop off his own defiled leg.

"Break for me!"

Under the influence of intense physical discomfort and despair, Shi actually achieved a breakthrough.

"That is?"

Jin Jiao, who was watching the battle, stood up abruptly, looking in shock at the lightning on Shi's leg as it began to change color, from deep blue to a despairing pitch black.

"Haha, I really have to thank you all."

Turning his head to look at the tense Senju Tobirama, Jin Jiao felt incredibly satisfied; your Konoha has truly lost both the girl and the army this time.

"Ugh..."

Danzo also felt the change in the Lightning Style within his rear crack. The lightning from before had only given him a slight numbing sensation, but now it was causing a piercing pain that reached his marrow; his entire rear crack felt like it was about to explode.

"This is... Black Lightning!?"

Witnessing his own metamorphosis, Shi's eyes were full of surprise. He had been exploring the path of advancing his Lightning Style for a long time without any leads; he never expected that after this battle, he would successfully master the Black Lightning he had dreamed of.

"Thank you, big-butt kid. Danzo, was it? I've remembered your name."

After his great joy, Shi manipulated the black lightning and lunged at the stubbornly resisting Danzo, deciding to give him a magnificent curtain call.

"Black Lightning!"

"It's over."

Watching Danzo enveloped by the black lightning, the F6 members all wore worried expressions, as if they had already seen their friend tortured to the point of being unrecognizable. Utatane Koharu even turned her head away, unable to bear watching such a miserable scene.

"It's too early to talk about winning or losing!"

Even though his entire body had been pierced by the black lightning, Danzo, with his hands pressed together, continued to grit his teeth and persist. At this moment, he wanted to prove to everyone that he was no longer the person he used to be.
