Chapter 464 The battle begins

Xiao Li opened the fourth gate of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu and released the green energy to deflect Kaguya Junmaro's finger bones.

Because the muscles around the wound were tense, the bleeding had stopped. Xiao Li endured the severe pain in his body and continued to attack Kaguya-kunmaro at high speed.

This time, Kaguya-kunmaro's bones could not withstand Xiao Li's attack and began to break. His body began to be injured and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Kaguya-kunmaro's eyes were solemn. He didn't expect that this Konoha Genin could actually unleash such powerful physical skills that could even break his bones that were harder than steel.

In this case...

The curse seal on Kaguya-kunmaro's chest began to change, and the black mark spread all over his body, looking like blood vessels in his body emerging.

Kaguya-kunmaro entered the first state of the Heaven and Earth Seal.

In this state, Kaguya Kimimaro's speed, strength, and bone density will be enhanced.

Uchiha Sasuke, who was watching the battle, saw the seal on Kaguya Kimimaro's body and immediately recognized it. It was also the Seal of Heaven and Earth.

Uchiha Sasuke's Sharingan watched the battle between Kaguya Kimimaro and Rock Lee without blinking.

Xiao Li hit Kaguya Kimimaro with one punch again, and at the moment when Kaguya Kimimaro was about to fall to the ground, he wrapped Kaguya Kimimaro with the bandage on his left hand.

Xiao Li, who opened the fourth gate, had almost reached his limit in terms of body, but after Kaguya Kimimaro opened the curse seal, he found that the punch he had just thrown could not break Kaguya Kimimaro's bones.

"In that case, the fifth gate! Jingmen! Open! This is the end!"

"True! Li Lianhua!"

Xiao Li pulled the bandage with his left hand, pulled Kaguya Kimimaro towards him, and kicked Kaguya Kimimaro fiercely with his right foot.

"Corpse Vein·Dance of the Walled Pine!"

The bones that emerged from Kaguya Kimimaro's body wrapped around the surface of his body, forming a bone shield. Xiao Li's right leg kicked Kaguya Kimimaro's bone shield.

Kaguya-kunmaro's bone shield blocked Lee's kick, but he was still kicked into the ground.

The powerful force caused the ground to crack into pieces of rubble, and Xiao Li lost his strength and fell to the ground, rolling for a long distance before stopping.

Xiao Li was now forced to exit the state of Eight Gates Ninjutsu. He felt extreme pain in his body even when he raised his head, but he still forced himself to look at Kaguya-kunmaro.

All the spectators stared at the smoke and dust in the venue, wanting to see what happened to Kaguya Kimimaro after suffering such a powerful attack.

A gust of wind blew by and the smoke and dust was blown away.

Although Kaguya-kunmaro looked quite embarrassed, he still stood where he was.

Kaguya-kunmaro glanced at the bone shield on his body. The bone shield was already cracked and would surely shatter if it were to withstand another attack.

"Even if the bones were created in the first stage of the Curse Formation, they are not strong enough to completely block that attack..."

Kaguya-kunmaro glanced at Xiao Li who was trying to stand up in the distance, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait, wait, the battle isn't over yet!"

Xiao Li held up his trembling legs and stood up.

Kaguya-kunmaro turned to look at Xiao Li: "You should not be able to get back to the state just now. The victory has been decided. Do you think you can win by forcing yourself to fight me like this?"

Xiao Li tried his best to raise his arm with broken muscles and made a fisting stance: "I... I just don't want to give up."

"If you don't want to give up, do you think you can win by forcing yourself to fight me with this severely injured body? This will only make you look stupid. Hey, didn't you say that you would stop the match when you think the winner is decided? If you don't announce it, I will kill him. After all, I have already given him the chance."

Kaguya-kunmaro looked at Genma Shiranui who was standing aside.

Shiranui Genma looked at Kaguya Kimimaro solemnly and muttered, "Why are the little brats nowadays more terrifying than each other?"

Shiranui Genma announced, "The winner has been decided. The winner is Kaguya Kimimaro of Otogakure!"

When Xiao Li heard Shiranui Genma announce that he had lost, the last breath he had been holding suddenly dissipated, and he rolled his eyes and fainted.

Might Guy quickly used the teleportation technique to support Rock Lee, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Looking at the unconscious Xiao Li, Might Guy said with tears in his eyes: "You have done very well, Li!"

The medical ninja came in with a stretcher, put Xiao Li on the stretcher and immediately sent him for treatment.

Kaguya-kunmaro came to the lounge.

Seeing Chiba was there, Kaguya-kunmaro greeted him, "Ara Yoshinori-sama."

Qianyu smiled and nodded: "Well, you fought well."

Uzumaki Soranai hugged Kaguya Kimimaro's shoulders and said with a smile: "Kimaro, you are really something. Watching your fight made me very emotional. I was worried that you would lose!"

Kaguya-kunmaro glanced at Xiao Li who was sent away and said, "The opponent is indeed quite strong."

Uzumaki Aonagi exclaimed: "I didn't expect that the silly-looking boy could burst out with such powerful strength. It really surprised me. Well, it's time for us to go on the mission. Let's go, Lord Ara Yoshinori."

Qian Yu nodded and said, "Well, our operation will start soon. Go ahead and be careful."

Uzumaki Aonagi took Kaguya Kimimaro and Libra Jūgo out of the examination venue and went to meet up with Hyuga Neji.

Next is the battle between Uzumaki Naruto and Aburame Shino.

Because during the extra match, Uzumaki Naruto had seen Aburame Shino's fighting style, and as long as he didn't get close to Aburame Shino's insects, the difficulty of this battle would not be high.

As soon as the battle began, Uzumaki Naruto used wind-style ninjutsu to wrap wind around his body to prevent Shino Aburame's parasitic insects from getting close to him.

Then Uzumaki Naruto used the Wind Breathing Sword Form and defeated Aburame Shino in just a few moves to win.

Seeing Uzumaki Naruto win easily, Namikaze Minato couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Next is the battle between Gaara and Uchiha Sasuke.

Outside the Konoha Village when Gaara and Uchiha Sasuke were fighting fiercely.

The Sand Ninjas have made preparations outside the Konoha Village, ready to invade the village and fight at any time.

Qianyu looked at the time.

"It's almost time, then, let's start the battle."

Qianyu began to form seals with his hands.

"The art of Nirvana Abode!"

White feather phantoms begin to descend throughout the venue, and anyone who sees the feather phantoms will fall into a deep sleep.

When Maki saw the white feathers, his whole body tensed up.

Because this is the signal to start the battle.

So...

Maki looked in Orochimaru's direction.

Orochimaru, disguised as Rasa, turned his gaze to Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sitting next to him.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen also looked at Orochimaru.

The moment their eyes met, the Sand Ninja guards behind Orochimaru threw a smoke bomb.

In an instant, smoke filled the air.

Orochimaru grabbed Sarutobi Hiruzen and rushed to the roof.

"Do it!"

The disguised Sakon, Kidomaru, Tayuya, and Jirobo formed hand seals at four locations on the rooftop to perform barrier ninjutsu.

"Four Purple Flame Formation!"

A rectangular barrier of purple transparent flames was opened in the four directions of east, west, south and north, creating a one-on-one combat environment for Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen.
