Chapter 94: Obito Only Plays When Behind

"Those two actually met in the first round."

The fourth-year students watching all felt it was a shame; Might Guy and Obito were the top two in fourth-year practicals, and even in the strongest Group A they had the strength to reach the top four out of two.

But meeting this early meant one of them was destined to be eliminated ahead of time.

"No matter who wins between Obito and Might Guy, I'll be missing a formidable opponent later on," Asuma thought as he watched Obito and Might Guy face off in the first round.

He wasn't as familiar with Might Guy as he was with Obito, nor did he know Might Guy's specific combat ability, but since Might Guy had been able to defeat Obito in the practical exam, his strength was certainly not to be underestimated.

Thinking this, Asuma put on a serious expression, preparing to gather information on both Obito and Might Guy through this fight.

"First match is against Guy..." Obito showed a troubled expression.

Might Guy had already completed his Shave training, while he hadn't yet, still unable to stack it three times simultaneously.

However, Obito didn't think he had no chance of winning.

Their current strength wasn't enough to support them using Shave multiple times in a short period; it put too much strain on the leg muscles.

"Using a fireball to obstruct vision and then using the Clone Technique?" Might Guy pondered for a moment, vaguely guessing Obito's plan.

Muyue left behind a shadow clone to continue hosting the practical test, while his main body took Obito to the hospital.

Although Obito should be able to control the fire dragon to stop behind Might Guy, Muyue was worried that Obito's poor condition might cause the ninjutsu to go out of control, so he directly used a shadow clone to block the fire dragon.

"Leaf Whirlwind!"

"Leaf Little Whirlwind!"

Obito spat out a fire dragon about half a person tall that charged swiftly toward Might Guy.

But before Might Guy could say anything, Obito collapsed to the ground the next second, losing consciousness directly.

"Found him!" Might Guy immediately gathered chakra in his legs, used Shave, and charged toward the slightly faster Obito, intending to catch him off guard and eliminate him directly.

He had finally defeated Might Guy in a real battle, and even turned the tables from a disadvantaged position!

Counting the first exchange, Obito had used Shave eight times in one minute; Might Guy's body was much stronger than Obito's, yet he didn't dare use it that much. From now on, Obito couldn't even run fast, let alone continue using the Body Flicker.

Falling behind from the start made Obito's mind race quickly; he knew that if he fell into Might Guy's attack rhythm, he would definitely lose, so Obito made a snap decision and used Shave twice in succession to create a considerable distance from Might Guy.

Muyue made his move.

"Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"

A small fireball blazing with fierce flames charged menacingly toward Might Guy.

But because Obito was a bit faster, he was still hit by Might Guy's heel attack; although he blocked it with his arm, that kick left Obito's arm uncontrollably trembling.

Earlier, Obito had used Shave repeatedly, putting tremendous strain on his legs; it was only natural for such a problem to occur.

"Begin!" Once the two had taken their stances, Muyue quickly announced the start of the fight.

"Such a fast Body Flicker!" Asuma was incredibly surprised.

At close range, Might Guy quickly felt the heat of the fire dragon; forced to endure the pain in his leg muscles, he used a Shave stacked only twice to dodge the technique.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

He first instantly completed a triple-stacked Shave, rushing toward Obito at extreme speed, then kicked out with his strongest blow.

As Muyue's words fell, Might Guy's figure vanished directly from where he stood.

Muyue appeared on the open ground, picked up Obito, and said, "It should be chakra exhaustion and physical fatigue. I'll take him to the Leaf Hospital for a checkup."

Because he also knew the Body Flicker, but his speed was not only slower than Might Guy's, he also needed to perform hand seals.

Might Guy wasn't flustered; instead, he focused his attention on his surroundings, cautiously watching for attacks from other directions.

But the Great Dragon Fire was different from the Great Fireball; the fire dragon could change direction. As Might Guy's figure disappeared, Obito immediately controlled the Great Dragon Fire to turn and continue chasing Might Guy.

However, to Might Guy's surprise, Obito didn't use that time to attack him; when Obito came back into Might Guy's line of sight, Might Guy saw that there were now seven Obitos on the field.

They only felt that Might Guy had seemed to teleport, his form instantly vanishing from where he stood.

"Uchiha Obito wins!" Muyue announced the result directly.

"I won," Might Guy judged in his mind.

The opponent was Obito. As training partners every day, we knew each other too well, so Might Guy didn't bother with probing attacks and went all out from the start.

Obito seemed not to expect Might Guy to notice him so quickly, and Might Guy's speed was too fast for him to react, not even assuming a defensive stance.

The two quickly walked to the open battle area, ready to begin the fight.

"Guy, I win this time." Hearing the result of the battle, Obito revealed a smug expression and laughed.

Might Guy quickly pursued, but Obito still pulled away a distance because Might Guy only used Shunpo once.

Seven Obitos ran in different directions, and for a moment Might Guy couldn't tell which was the real one and which were illusions.

Whether it was the effect of his previous training or that Obito couldn't play from behind, after the 7-7 situation he couldn't win, and this time when Muyue thought Might Guy's winning chance was much higher, Obito still won.

Because at the moment he kicked Obito, the Obito he attacked simply vanished.

"So fast!" The surrounding students were all amazed by Might Guy's speed.

Might Guy's passionate voice resounded throughout Team A.

"I fell for it, it's a clone!" Might Guy quickly turned to find the real Obito's trail.

So he could only say he was at a slight disadvantage, not that he couldn't fight.

"Obito, are you okay?" Might Guy rushed over to check on him.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!" Enduring the soreness in his legs, Obito quickly formed hand signs and spat out a fireball eight meters high.

Until Might Guy noticed that one of the Obitos seemed to be running slightly faster, and occasionally a strange expression flickered across his face.

Might Guy directly hit Obito with a whirlwind kick.

Obito and Might Guy had opposite ideas; Might Guy wanted to close in for close combat, while Obito wanted to use Shunpo to create distance and use ninjutsu.

Just as Might Guy thought the battle hadn't started yet, the next moment his expression drastically changed.

At that time, the real Obito had already completed the Fire Style ninjutsu near Might Guy.

Might Guy, seeing that his first opponent was Obito, felt a bit fired up.

Having faced the Great Fireball so many times, Might Guy knew that technique was powerful but easy to dodge; what he needed to watch out for were other attacks that would come during that time.

Just as the fire dragon was about to hit Might Guy, a water wall rose up and blocked the fire dragon.

If nothing unexpected happens, it's also five updates today.
