Not far away.
"Naruto actually changed his fighting style?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked surprised.
"Lord Hokage."
Nara Shikaku asked in confusion, "Isn't it normal to combine the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique with kunai throwing?"
"You don't understand Naruto."
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said, "His fighting style was extremely one-dimensional before, consisting of nothing but taijutsu."
Nara Shikaku was slightly taken aback. After carefully recalling the battle between Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee, he realized that it was indeed the case.
Moreover, with his intelligence, he could naturally see Naruto's personality: carefree and reckless.
This sudden change in fighting style is indeed unlike his personality.
"It's Kitazawa."
Tsunade said casually.
She had fought Kitazawa and watched several of his battles.
Because Kitazawa studied a wide variety of techniques, his fighting style is somewhat similar to Hiruzen Sarutobi's, as he likes to alternate between different ninjutsu.
Besides Hiruzen Sarutobi, the only other person who could make Naruto Uzumaki change his fighting style was Kitazawa.
"If it was Kitazawa who taught him, then that makes sense."
Hiruzen Sarutobi paused for a moment, then said with great satisfaction, "Kitazawa taught well!"
He had previously worried that Naruto's fighting style was too forceful and lacked flexibility.
It now appears that there is room for change; as long as he is willing to learn, he can make changes, which is undoubtedly a good thing.
"But this change poses no threat to Sasuke."
Tsunade narrowed her eyes and said.
"really."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze fell on Sasuke Uchiha.
After getting used to the rhythm of throwing kunai, he finally seized his opportunity.
Body Flicker Technique!
The three Uchiha Sasukes accelerated simultaneously.
They appeared in front of the three teams of Naruto Uzumaki and his shadow clones at an extremely fast speed.
He wields shuriken!
The three Uchiha Sasukes simultaneously threw out six kunai each.
Bang bang bang!
Naruto's shadow clones all disappeared on the spot.
"Sasuke, you are truly amazing! No wonder you are my nemesis!"
Naruto Uzumaki watched as Sasuke Uchiha used the same fighting style as Kitazawa and couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
"Your kunai throwing technique is very poor."
Uchiha Sasuke suppressed the fatigue surging within him and spoke with a calm expression.
He is physically inferior to Naruto Uzumaki.
From the start of the battle, he was constantly dodging at high speed, using fire-style techniques and shuriken skills, without ever having a chance to catch his breath.
My body is naturally under a lot of strain now.
But with so many spectators, especially Fugaku and Itachi Uchiha, he had to remain calm for the sake of the Uchiha clan.
And he wasn't wrong; if Naruto's kunai throwing skills were proficient enough, he might have already lost.
"This battle should end, Naruto."
Sasuke Uchiha declared, "You will fail once again!"
"Sasuke!"
Naruto Uzumaki flashed his teeth and said, "You'll soon see the surprise I've prepared for you!"
Uchiha Sasuke's breath hitched upon hearing this.
The Multiple Shadow Clone Technique combined with kunai throwing isn't exactly a surprise for you?
Can you translate what "surprise" means?
But Sasuke Uchiha didn't have time to think, because Naruto Uzumaki charged forward again.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
Naruto Uzumaki ran while forming hand seals.
Thirty more shadow clones appeared within the smoke.
As soon as the shadow clones appeared, they blocked Naruto's path and then swarmed forward.
“I’ve already said it, it’s no use.”
Uchiha Sasuke snorted coldly and immediately formed hand seals.
Although he didn't understand why Naruto Uzumaki had reverted to his initial strategy, it was undoubtedly a good thing for him.
Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!
Uchiha Sasuke tilted his head back and spat out a series of small fireballs.
The other two Uchiha Sasukes used the Shuriken Manipulation Technique.
Under the triple attack, Naruto's shadow clones quickly dissipated, leaving only three in the end.
The three Naruto Uzumakis stood in a triangle, with two Naruto Uzumakis in front and one Naruto Uzumakis behind.
Body Flicker Technique!
Uchiha Sasuke sprinted forward without hesitation.
As the air howled, his two shadow clones threw out four kunai, hitting the two Naruto Uzumaki at the front before he could react.
Two bangs.
The two Naruto Uzumakis disappeared instantly.
"It really is a shadow clone... What is this?"
Sasuke Uchiha, who was about to cast a genjutsu, suddenly shuddered.
A blue chakra ball gathered in Naruto's right hand.
The air emitted a tearing, shrill sound.
The rotating chakra, after being highly compressed, revealed its most terrifying aspect.
"Spiral pills!"
Without hesitation, Naruto Uzumaki hurled the attack at Sasuke Uchiha.
Uchiha Sasuke had to face him in order to use genjutsu.
He took advantage of this, using two shadow clones as cover, and used the Rasengan.
As for whether the Rasengan would hurt Sasuke Uchiha, he wasn't worried.
Before the match, Kitazawa told him, "You can use it without worry, because he will make his move."
Uchiha Sasuke sensed an unprecedented crisis.
It was too late for him to escape.
But just then, Kitazawa appeared and pulled him back, allowing him to narrowly avoid the Rasengan.
Boom!
The Rasengan lost its target and crashed to the ground.
In an instant, the ground cracked open, rocks flew everywhere, and an enormous, deep pit appeared.
Uchiha Sasuke instinctively took a step back, slumped to the ground, and stared blankly at everything, as if in a dream.
Is this the surprise Naruto Uzumaki was talking about?
"The winner is Naruto Uzumaki."
Kitazawa glanced at Uchiha Sasuke and announced.
"I...I lost?"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke snapped out of his daze and subconsciously asked a question.
"According to the rules, I helped you, so the battle is over."
Kitazawa explained.
Uchiha Sasuke opened his mouth, but didn't know how to refute it.
He did indeed lose; without Kitazawa's help, he would have had to withstand the Rasengan with his bare body.
Judging from the deep crater in the ground, if he had tried to withstand it, he would most likely have died.
In other words, Naruto Uzumaki already possesses the ability to kill him.
How can this be?
Uchiha Sasuke stood there, his face filled with disbelief.
He should have been the victor!
Just then, gasps of surprise erupted from the audience, louder than ever before.
"That's a Rasengan?!"
Nara Shikaku suddenly stood up and exclaimed in surprise.
He was not alone in his reaction; many others were even moved to tears.
Because this is a ninjutsu created by the perfect ninja, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!
Many of them had fought alongside him.
A small number of people even know that Naruto Uzumaki is the son of Minato Namikaze.
In this way, Naruto's use of the Rasengan takes on a special significance.
"Naruto actually learned the Rasengan?"
Although Tsunade was a bit calmer than Nara Shikaku, she was still taken aback.
"How about it?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with a broad smile.
"His future achievements will be no less than Watergate's."
Tsunade paused for two seconds before speaking.
"That's what I think too."
Hiruzen Sarutobi comforted him, saying, "Konoha has a worthy successor."
Tsunade remained silent, her gaze falling on Kitazawa.
Without a doubt, Naruto Uzumaki's Rasengan was taught to him by him.
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi could also do it, as the Hokage, he didn't have that much time.
Kitazawa was originally a teacher at the Ninja Academy, so he was the most suitable person to teach.
Tsunade simply couldn't imagine that a seven-year-old Naruto Uzumaki could learn the Rasengan.
It's nothing short of a miracle; I have no idea how Kitazawa taught him.
"The Rasengan?"
