The poisonous needles pierced the fur of the three-headed hellhound.
"Ow!"
The three-headed hellhound couldn't help but howl.
Because of this delay, the queen bee released a large amount of honey wax.
The three-headed hellhound was completely unable to move.
With a bang.
Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru appear.
They were all stuck to the ground with beeswax, looking quite miserable.
Shino Aburame stepped forward and helped them clean the beeswax.
"The winner is Shino Aburame."
Seeing this, Umino Iruka announced the result.
"There are now five types of mutated parasites in Shino?"
Yamanaka Ino asked instinctively.
"Currently, there are indeed five types."
Nara Shikamaru paused for a moment, then said, "There might be more parasitic insects using Yang Release and Yin Release techniques in the future."
"What outrageous parasites!"
Sakura Haruno couldn't help but say.
"Limited power."
Uchiha Sasuke said calmly.
He had seen Shino Aburame's parasitic fireworms; they were not completely immune to fire-style ninjutsu, but could only withstand it for three to five seconds.
If it's a high-level Fire Release ninjutsu, the parasitic fire insects can only withstand it for one second at most.
"It may have limited power for you, but it might not be so for us."
Yamanaka Ino shook her head and said.
"really."
Chino agreed.
The longer she stayed in the gifted program, the more she felt that her talent was mediocre.
Although she possesses the Blood Dragon Eye, it's truly terrifying that she can't even make it into the top ten of the genius class.
"Round 2, Match 2: Uchiha Sasuke vs. Nara Shikamaru."
Iruka Umino's voice interrupted their discussion.
"My luck is really terrible."
Nara Shikamaru's lips twitched, and he stood up, saying...
"Holding on for just a few more seconds is victory."
Yamanaka Ino said reassuringly.
"Winning or losing is no longer important, as long as you don't get hurt."
Choji Akimichi chuckled sheepishly and said.
"..."
Nara Shikamaru hesitated for a moment, then went on stage without saying anything.
Sasuke Uchiha walked up to him expressionlessly.
He activated his Sharingan without hesitation.
If one were to fall victim to the Nara clan's secret technique, it would be extremely dangerous.
But their secret techniques are not without trace; they can only be performed through shadows.
Sasuke Uchiha's idea was very simple.
He will keep a close watch on Nara Shikamaru's shadow with his three-tomoe Sharingan the whole time.
The shadow imitates a shuriken!
Nara Shikamaru had already guessed Uchiha Sasuke's thoughts.
He had no means of dealing with it.
On the contrary, he also had to be careful of his three-tomoe Sharingan, lest he suddenly fall under a genjutsu.
Nara Shikamaru threw out six shuriken.
Uchiha Sasuke retaliated with six shuriken.
He pulled with both hands, flicking away six shuriken. Two of the shuriken accelerated and aimed at Nara Shikamaru.
This is the art of shuriken handling.
Nara Shikamaru sighed inwardly.
His shadow imitation shuriken was countered before it could even be used.
Konoha Body Flicker Technique!
Nara Shikamaru instantly transformed into a leaf and disappeared from the spot.
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
Uchiha Sasuke quickly formed hand seals.
A large fireball chased straight at the leaves in mid-air.
Nara Shikamaru was startled and immediately increased his chakra output, suddenly accelerating forward.
A piercing bird cry rang out.
Uchiha Sasuke was enveloped in lightning.
Nara Shikamaru glanced around.
After dodging the fireball, I landed in the shadow of a tree on the edge of the playground.
Seeing this, Sasuke Uchiha used the Body Flicker Technique to quickly approach him.
A strong sense of crisis swept over us.
Nara Shikamaru formed hand seals at the critical moment.
Shadow Substitution Technique!
He vanished without a trace.
Uchiha Sasuke suddenly stopped.
He subconsciously frowned and looked around, but he didn't see Nara Shikamaru.
"I've never seen this secret technique before."
Kiba Inuzuka scratched his head and asked.
"This is the Shadow Substitution Technique, created by Kitazawa-sensei."
Yamanaka Ino put her hands on her hips and said smugly.
"Why hasn't Shikamaru been used before?"
Sakura Haruno asked, puzzled.
"He just learned it recently."
Yamanaka Ino replied.
"No wonder."
Sakura Haruno nodded and then asked, "Has Shikamaru disappeared? I can't find him anywhere?"
"Tree shadows".
Hyuga Neji activated his Byakugan and spotted Nara Shikamaru hiding in the shadows of the trees.
More accurately, he was hiding in his own shadow, but was covered by the shadow of the trees.
That's why Sasuke Uchiha didn't notice him immediately.
It's a bit like the saying "the darkest place is under the lamp."
"He can't hide for long."
Kurama Yakumo shook his head and said.
Shadow Imitation!
Nara Shikamaru also knew that sooner or later he would be discovered by Uchiha Sasuke's three-tomoe Sharingan.
Taking advantage of his gaze being elsewhere, he immediately formed a hand seal.
A shadow spread rapidly.
"So it was in the shadows."
Uchiha Sasuke gave a light snort and immediately leaped up.
In mid-air, the lightning on his body spread outwards in all directions.
I surrender!
Seeing the lightning approaching, Nara Shikamaru quickly shouted.
Kitazawa swiftly moved past him, taking him away from the range of the lightning.
"The winner is Uchiha Sasuke."
Iruka Umino announced.
"This secret technique is quite good."
Hiruzen Sarutobi commented.
"Kitazawa's talent in creating ninjutsu is not much inferior to that of the Second Hokage."
Maruhoshi Kosuke nodded and said.
"Moreover, the ninjutsu he created can benefit the entire ninja clan."
Chen Baojun said with a smile.
Kakashi Hatake thought of Lightning Release: Kirin and Lightning Release: Chidori.
The former was created based on Kitazawa's inspiration.
The latter was modified by Kitazawa, resulting in variant Lightning Release ninjutsu such as Lightning Release: Chidori Stream.
In creating and modifying ninjutsu, Kitazawa was truly unmatched by most.
"This shows that Kitazawa has a very deep understanding of the Seven Elements Ninjutsu."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a chuckle.
If he were to choose a successor in Konoha, he would choose Kitazawa without hesitation.
Unfortunately, Kitazawa, like Naruto Uzumaki, had too many talents.
This makes his successor a mere icing on the cake.
Whether Hiruzen Sarutobi teaches them or not makes no difference.
Kurenai Yuhi didn't say anything, but she had a very proud expression on her face.
After all, he was her man.
"Round 2, Match 3: Naruto Uzumaki vs. Rock Lee!"
A moment later, Umino Iruka called out again.
"It's actually Xiao Li?"
