Chapter 9: Bujue 10-Hit Combo

"Why would Nikaido Benimaru appear on the stage?"

Seeing Nikaido Benimaru enter as the second contestant, Kusanagi Kyo's doubts were answered.

No wonder Nikaido Benimaru had been missing since the morning; he had been saving up a big move for him here!

On the stage, Nikaido Benimaru kept posing and preening; he seemed to have a special fondness for his golden broom-head hairstyle...

In every way, he was telling all the spectators off-stage: "Look, look at me! Is this golden broom-head of mine handsome?"

Why did Nikaido Benimaru appear here?

It was not because of a grudge against the Shiranui School, but because Binglong Qingzhi of the Binglong Sect had personally sought him out.

During the negotiations, Binglong Qingzhi had said more than once that Nikaido Benimaru was very handsome and cool, and that a man like him should live under the spotlight.

As it happened, there was now an opportunity for more people to recognize the charm and handsomeness of Young Master Nikaido Benimaru.

Therefore, Nikaido Benimaru appeared here today!

"With Nikaido Benimaru on stage, that little ninja is going to lose."

Kusanagi Saishu still did not think highly of Bu Zhi Bu Jue; he highly recognized Nikaido Benimaru's strength and looked down a bit on Bu Zhi Bu Jue's little ninja tricks.

Kusanagi Kyo did not speak.

Inside the arena.

Nikaido Benimaru was still striking various poses; he did not take Bu Zhi Bu Jue seriously at all.

Handsome men are all hidden rivals; Bu Zhi Bu Jue was so handsome, even more handsome than Kusanagi Kyo, which made Nikaido Benimaru feel very uncomfortable!

Perhaps this was what they called the "Yu-Liang complex" over in China.

Nikaido Benimaru spent a full ten minutes posing and preening on the stage.

Finally, under the referee's strong criticism and warning, Nikaido Benimaru finally began the match, otherwise he would have been forcibly declared the loser.

Nikaido Benimaru was a fighting genius, born with the natural talent of a body capable of lightning abilities; he was truly someone blessed by the heavens.

"Spiral Lightning Kick."

Nikaido Benimaru jumped into mid-air, cool blue lightning surrounding his body, while he spun rapidly to descend and deliver a kick.

Unusually, Bu Zhi Bu Jue did not use Substitution Jutsu or dodge, but instead condensed a blue sphere in his right hand and charged up.

The blue Rasengan collided with Nikaido Benimaru's spiral kick.

The two energies collided, and the heat that diffused out distorted the surroundings.

Kusanagi Saishu, who had never personally experienced the power of the Rasengan, looked shocked: "This tiny blue sphere actually has such power, and it can actually withstand Nikaido Benimaru's spiral kick?"

Because the benchmarks were different, the Kusanagi father and son re-evaluated the power of the Rasengan.

After all, how could Jack be mentioned in the same breath as Nikaido Benimaru?

"I really want to spar with this person."

Kusanagi Kyo was watching with his blood boiling, even wanting to enter the arena himself to trade a few moves with Bu Zhi Bu Jue.

Inside the arena.

Nikaido Benimaru was sent flying by the impact; in the brief collision, he had actually failed to gain any advantage and was even sent flying by the opponent's blue sphere?

"My Spiral Lightning Kick actually lost to a sphere!"

Looking at the torn shoe on his right foot, Nikaido Benimaru found it hard to accept this fact.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang!" sounds exploded.

Nikaido Benimaru had to return to reality, because he was already surrounded by "human sea tactics" in front of him.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue had a lot of chakra; perhaps it was his natural talent, or perhaps the Chakra Refining Technique brought back by the Treasure Cat was special, but in any case, the chakra in his body was enough for him to squander wantonly without even panting.

Even Kakashi would have to lean against a wall in envy if he saw this!

Facing the numerous clones, although Nikaido Benimaru was under pressure, he was not defeated in one blow like Jack.

Because Nikaido Benimaru possessed an amazing constitution that could release lightning, every time Bu Zhi Bu Jue's clones approached the former, they were all destroyed by his Lightning Fighting Technique.

Shiranui Mai, outside the arena, was very anxious.

"Damn it, this flashy broom-head can actually discharge electricity; this kind of electric shock is a natural counter to Bu Zhi Bu Jue's Shadow Clone Technique."

As one of the contestants, King nodded slowly; she admitted that Nikaido Benimaru was very strong, and she feared that neither she nor Shiranui Mai would have the confidence to take down this broom-head if they fought him alone.

"Lightning Flash Fist!!"

Nikaido Benimaru roared and unleashed his signature move; as he swung his right fist, a massive blue ball of lightning condensed within it.

Terrifying, crackling electrical currents were released everywhere.

Wherever they went, Bu Zhi Bu Jue's clones were crushed and shattered.

A person's energy is limited; being forced into human sea tactics for a long time leads to fatigue, or at least a moment of mental slackness.

That was the case for Nikaido Benimaru now, and it was no wonder why Xuanwo Mingren liked the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique so much; this ninjutsu was, in a sense, very cheap.

Bu Zhi Bu Jue used a Body Flicker Technique to appear beneath Nikaido Benimaru, then hammered his chest hard with a straight punch.

Immediately after, Bu Zhi Bu Jue followed up with a knee strike to Nikaido Benimaru's chin, kicking him high into the air.

At this moment, several clones emerged beside Bu Zhi Bu Jue's main body.

Ninja Body Technique, Bujue 10-Hit Combo!

This move was basically identical to the so-called Naruto Combo, only the name was different.

It involved using the Shadow Clone Technique to create four or more shadow clones, then separately launching roundhouse kicks and various beatings at the enemy, before the main body delivered the final blow.

Nikaido Benimaru, sent flying into the air, was forced to accept the punches and kicks from one Bu Zhi Bu Jue clone after another...

Finally, the Bu Zhi Bu Jue main body formed a sphere and hit Nikaido Benimaru squarely in the stomach.

The power of the Rasengan went without saying; the powerful, twisting spiral force caused Nikaido Benimaru to slam into the ground at an extremely high speed.

Boom~

A large crater was gouged into the ground, and cracks spread across the entire arena.

"This should be the end of it."

Shiranui Mai clutched her heaving chest and let out a sigh of relief; just now, seeing those electric shocks sweep across the clones of Bu Zhi Bu Jue, she had wanted to rush up and beat that broom-head to death!

Perhaps it was because Shiranui Mai had set a flag, but King pointed upward and exclaimed, "No, Mai, the battle isn't over yet."

Boom...

A figure sprang out from the pit; this person was none other than Nikaido Benimaru.

It was just that he no longer possessed his previous ease, elegance, and handsomeness; not only was his body covered in wounds, but even that eye-catching broom-head was bent and collapsed.

"Ah, what a pain." Bu Zhi Bu Jue's brow twitched; the physical bodies of these fighters in the King of Fighters World were truly "meaty"!

Iori Yagami was like this, and this Nikaido Benimaru was the same; couldn't they show some respect for Uzumaki Naruto's Rasengan?

If Bu Zhi Bu Jue had some kind of combat system, he would surely be able to see a progress bar above Nikaido Benimaru's head right now, and it would be a fully charged one at that.

Very soon, the opponent would start to explode his Qi and then unleash a whole combo of ultimate moves.

Nikaido Benimaru took a step forward, then immediately knelt on one knee, his right hand covering the bleeding wound on his stomach, and retched: "...."

A pool of fresh blood flowed out from between Nikaido Benimaru's fingers, and his eyes, filled with fighting spirit, stared fixedly at Bu Zhi Bu Jue.

He had been careless; Nikaido Benimaru had originally thought that in this Yinghuaguo, only Kusanagi Kyo could defeat him, so at the start, he hadn't taken Bu Zhi Bu Jue seriously as an opponent at all.

And then, Nikaido Benimaru suffered the greatest loss of his life.

"Referee, I request to forfeit."

Kusanagi Kyo jumped directly down from his seat on the platform; he walked to Nikaido Benimaru's side to demand an end to this match!

This suggestion made Nikaido Benimaru very angry, and he intended to break free from Kusanagi Kyo's arm, but unfortunately, he lacked the ability to do so now.

"Kyo, I haven't lost yet! That was just a moment of carelessness."

Nikaido Benimaru was a genius, in every aspect, which was why he had developed such a cynical personality.

But that did not mean Nikaido Benimaru liked to taste the flavor of defeat.
