Chapter 492: Teaching at the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I
Shino Aburame stood in place and continued to use chakra to create parasitic insects.
Kiba Inuzuka lost the initiative.
No matter how the two-headed dog struggled, there were more and more parasitic insects on its body.
"I concede!"
Kiba Inuzuka said urgently: "Get your insects off quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Shino Aburame waved his hands and withdrew the parasitic insects.
"Shino, your insects are truly... troublesome."
Kiba Inuzuka ended the fusion state and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He originally wanted to say that these insects were disgusting, but after all, they were classmates, so there was no need to be so blunt.
"Your hellhound is quite good, it's just that the means of attack are a bit few."
Shino Aburame nodded slightly and said.
"Itachi're right, so I plan to ask Teacher Kitazawa for help during the winter break."
Kiba Inuzuka clenched his fists and said: "By the time the next semester starts, it won't be that easy for Itachi to beat me!"
Although his personality wasn't as lazy as Shikamaru Nara's, he was also very playful.
However, Naruto Uzumaki's strength increase had stimulated him.
If he didn't catch up quickly, he would have to treat Naruto Uzumaki to Ichiraku Ramen every monthly exam.
In that case, he would have no face.
Shino Aburame was stunned for a moment.
Reminded by Kiba Inuzuka, he remembered his parasitic insect mutation plan.
He didn't know if it could start during the winter break.
"The winner is Shino Aburame."
Kitazawa announced in a timely manner.
"Let's go."
Kiba Inuzuka familiarly put his arm around Shino Aburame.
The two of them left the field.
Kiba Inuzuka was very satisfied with his performance.
Although he didn't win, he had made a name for himself relying on the hellhound.
"Third round, fourth match: Naruto Uzumaki versus Neji Hyuga!"
Kitazawa said with a smile.
Neji Hyuga hadn't triggered a new task for a long time.
Although Kitazawa didn't know if Naruto Uzumaki could help him trigger one, trying it out wouldn't result in any major loss.
"Me versus Naruto?"
Neji Hyuga couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.
The opponent he most wanted to encounter was Sasuke Uchiha.
Having lost to Sasuke Uchiha's genjutsu due to carelessness before, he had been brooding over it.
But unfortunately, he hadn't encountered him in several practical tests.
This time, the student council practical selection had reached the third round, and he still hadn't encountered Sasuke Uchiha.
However, Naruto Uzumaki was about the same.
After all, he had just defeated Sasuke Uchiha.
Neji Hyuga walked onto the field with a grave expression.
He didn't have the confidence to defeat Naruto Uzumaki.
Whether it was the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu or the Rasengan, both were very troublesome.
But... there was a chance.
As long as he got close, the Byakugan plus Gentle Fist was invincible.
"Who do Itachi think will win?"
Ino Yamanaka asked curiously.
"I think it's Naruto."
Kiba Inuzuka exclaimed: "The Rasengan is the Fourth Hokage's ninjutsu!"
"Not necessarily. The strength of the Gentle Fist lies in sealing chakra; even if Naruto has learned many ninjutsu, he won't be able to use them."
Shikamaru Nara shook his head and said.
"That's true."
Kiba Inuzuka couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it; he said with interest: "This match definitely won't be worse than Sasuke's... mmph mmph mmph."
Before he could finish, his mouth was covered by Shikamaru Nara.
Kiba Inuzuka glared at him subconsciously, but soon understood.
His gaze fell on Sasuke Uchiha, who was radiating coldness all over his body not far away.
He had been like this ever since he left the field.
Standing in place without saying a word.
No matter how Sakura Haruno tried to talk to him, Sasuke Uchiha ignored her.
"Neji he..."
Shino Aburame had only said half a sentence before being interrupted.
"Neji won't lose!"
Tenten said decisively.
Rock Lee scratched his head.
He didn't know who to support.
In the first row of the spectator stands.
"Gentle Fist, huh? That's a bit troublesome."
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned slightly and said.
He hoped Naruto Uzumaki would win, and he was also thinking from his perspective.
"Maybe Kitazawa taught Naruto a way to deal with it."
Tsunade watched Naruto Uzumaki with great interest.
"Mm."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and didn't speak again, watching the match.
"I'm here! Neji!"
Naruto Uzumaki formed hand seals and shouted: "Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
In an instant, thirty shadow clones appeared.
Neji Hyuga immediately set up his Gentle Fist stance.
But just then, the thirty shadow clones scattered and divided into three teams.
Neji Hyuga's pupils contracted violently, and he felt something was wrong.
He didn't expect Naruto Uzumaki to use the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu and kunai throwing right from the start.
Whistling sounds rang out.
The first team of shadow clones threw twenty kunai first.
Neji Hyuga dodged to the left without hesitation.
But as soon as he landed, he was met with kunai thrown by the second team of shadow clones.
Neji Hyuga struck with both palms in succession, quickly knocking the kunai in front of him away.
The moment it took effect, he retreated immediately.
The kunai thrown by the third team of shadow clones missed.
Neji Hyuga took a deep breath, his body accelerated violently, and he rushed toward Naruto Uzumaki.
Although he didn't have the Shadow Clone Jutsu to break the three-pronged attack like Sasuke Uchiha, he had the Byakugan and the Gentle Fist.
The Byakugan gave him an all-around perspective, and the Gentle Fist could knock away kunai.
Neji Hyuga approached Naruto Uzumaki rapidly, braving the sky full of kunai.
"So amazing!"
Naruto Uzumaki exclaimed and met him: "Leaf Whirlwind!"
Neji Hyuga couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
He liked Naruto Uzumaki's reckless fighting style because it could be countered by him.
But he still didn't relax his vigilance.
After all, Naruto Uzumaki had demonstrated a certain combat wisdom in the battle with Sasuke Uchiha.
Neji Hyuga struck with both palms, hitting Naruto Uzumaki's right foot.
His body couldn't help but sway.
Naruto Uzumaki's strength exceeded his expectations.
But... it no longer had any meaning.
Because Neji Hyuga seized this opportunity to seal two chakra points on his right leg.
Naruto Uzumaki felt his right leg go numb.
He subconsciously retracted his right leg, and because of the lack of smooth chakra, he stumbled.
Seeing this, Neji Hyuga was about to press the attack, but just then, a whistling sound came from behind him.
"Dynamic Entry!"
Naruto Uzumaki's shadow clone flew through the air and kicked toward him.
Neji Hyuga hurriedly turned around and struck toward him.
"Leaf Double Whirlwind!"
Two shadow clones followed closely behind, one on the left and one on the right.
Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!
Neji Hyuga secretly said it was troublesome and struck six palms in succession with both hands.
The three shadow clones were sent flying backward in unison.
Neji Hyuga didn't have time to catch his breath before more shadow clones came toward him.
Having no choice, he could only dodge while counterattacking.
Although he was empty-handed, because of the special nature of the Gentle Fist acupoint striking, he struck with an invincible momentum.
Naruto Uzumaki's shadow clones often fell to the ground after taking two or three palms.
However, competing with Naruto Uzumaki in chakra was obviously unwise.
Neji Hyuga stared with his Byakugan, searching for Naruto Uzumaki's main body.
Although the Byakugan couldn't see through shadow clones, he still found the target quickly.
Because Naruto Uzumaki had been sealed at two chakra points earlier, his movements were more obvious than usual.
