Chapter 112 The race begins

Of course, this was a cheer limited to the people and low-level ninjas. Maki, Kakashi, Asuma, and Yakushi Kabuto who were scattered around the venue, as well as Yakushi Kabuto hidden in the shadows, all had their heartstrings tightened. .

Especially Maki, whose eyes were fixed on Gaara. As the first person in charge of Konoha's collapse plan and the most important source of combat power for their Sunagakure Village, there must be no chance of anyone appearing. questionable.

‘You must stick to the plan, Gaara. ’

Marky thought silently in his mind.

Subconsciously, he raised his head and looked at the area outside the distant Konoha Hidden Village. There was already a group of the most elite ninjas from their Sand Hidden Village gathered there. When the signal was sent, they were directly on the weak side of Konoha Hidden Village. Launch the most violent attack.

The Jounin of Konoha had also received different orders before entering the venue. Even if Konoha still didn't know the exact plans of Sunagakure and Otogakure, the previous clues were enough for Sarutobi to Hiruzen ordered everyone to be on guard.

But unless it was a last resort, Hiruzen Sarutobi was naturally unwilling to see the worst situation happen.

This is Konoha after all, and any losses are likely to be doubled or even more. As the Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen must hope that everything can land safely.

But today's result is destined not to satisfy Sarutobi Hiruzen, and there will be a big surprise waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The curtain is already slowly opening.

Off the field.

"Yoshi, except for Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji who stayed in the first game, the others returned to the rest stand first."

Shiranui Genma turned around, looked at the ten Menma and Gaara in the back with a dull look, and said in a calm tone.

Falling words.

Two people looking at each other.

This is an obvious burst of intense sparks.

Just as Sasuke was very satisfied with his first opponent.

Neji was also happy that his first battle would be with Sasuke.

Even though the Uchiha clan has been almost wiped out, this name still has great prestige in the ninja world.

Defeat such an opponent.

Neji would naturally feel his blood boiling.

The other eight people whirled away.

"Come on, Sasuke, you must win against that guy!"

"Sasuke-kun, come on."

Naruto and Sakura also cheered for their teammates.

Menma glanced at Sasuke and Neji with a slightly strange look, because it must be said that among the twelve Konoha heroes in the original book, who is most likely to become his companion, it is only Sasuke and Neji.

The former has been proven in the original work.

As for the latter.

It can only be said that with that motivation and foundation, whether it can be done or not remains to be seen later. Moreover, Neji is a member of a separate family, so the caged bird is an unavoidable problem.

'However, these are all issues that need to be considered later. Today, we still have to sing this big drama well first. ’

Before walking into the corridor.

Menma also took one last look at Sarutobi Hiruzen on the high platform. He seemed to be looking forward to it, and waited a moment.

Two separate people.

Eight people stepped forward.

"The first match, Uchiha Sasuke Vs Hyuga Neji, begins!"

Shiranui Genma also glanced at the high platform, and after receiving the signal, he suddenly waved his right hand and shouted loudly.

Compare that to the signal for war.

"boom!"

In the side down position.

Sasuke's Sharingan opened immediately, reflecting the scarlet color, followed by the burst of chakra.

In the opposite position.

Neji smiled coldly.

"Roll your eyes!"

The blue veins popping up on his forehead are also the white eyes that open simultaneously.

An aura far beyond that of ordinary genin rippled out.

"Oooh? Sharingan!"

"Is this the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?"

"After so many years, I can see these eyes again."

"Tsk tsk, Byakugan versus Sharingan, this first match is very exciting."

"We'll see if the Byakugan is stronger or the Sharingan is better."

The audience in the stands also widened their eyes with excitement when they saw these two pairs of completely different eyes.

The screams one after another added a bit of excitement to this duel.

"Haha, Kakashi, this first game is a duel between our two teams. This is really youth!"

Metkai, who stood side by side with Kakashi, also gave a thumbs up and said with a smile.

"Uh-huh."

Kakashi responded lazily, and his single exposed eye inadvertently glanced at Maki who was also further away, with a solemn look emerging from the depths of his pupils.

The duel started.

No verbal communication is required or possible.

"boom!"

Sasuke at the bottom.

Almost at the moment when Neji got into his stance, he preemptively charged towards Neji.

Flash speed.

On the occasion of Ningci's appearance.

The pupils of this genius of the Hyuga clan also shrank suddenly.

A speed obviously beyond expectations.

"Gossip!"

Neji could only put on his strongest stance immediately.

The two people collided fiercely.

"Boom."

The ground was also covered with dust.

"Wow? So fast, when did Sasuke become so fast?"

On the stands, the faces of several ninjas watching the game changed slightly, especially Lee, whose expression became very serious.

Naruto even shouted at this moment.

'The activation of lightning chakra? It can also be regarded as a cheating method. '

Only Menma was not surprised.

In the original work, Sasuke learned this move and Kakashi's exclusive ninjutsu - Chidori in a month.

This made the second young master of the Uchiha family grow by leaps and bounds. It's a pity that he met Gaara, the One-Tail Jinchuriki in the original work. Chidori can break through Gaara's sand barrier at this stage and even injure Gaara, but in the later duel, when Gaara used Shukaku's power, Sasuke was no match for him.

But now, facing Hyuga Neji.

Sasuke obviously has the upper hand.

"Bang!"

The physical skills copied from Kakashi using the newly opened Sharingan, and the speed that soared to the extreme in a short time.

Neji is completely in a disadvantageous situation.

He can only passively defend against Sasuke's strong attack.

It is difficult to make his own counterattack.

Even the Eight Diagrams stance is difficult to put out directly.

This situation is obviously not going to continue, Neji gritted his teeth and punched Sasuke hard, using the force to forcibly pull a distance.

The posture of wanting to reorganize.

"Fire Style - Great Fireball Technique!"

But it was easily seen through by Sasuke.
