"I'm honored to be your opponent, Naruto, let me see your full strength!" Lee held one hand behind his back and made a gesture of invitation with the other, speaking earnestly.
"Um, me too."
Naruto answered softly.
Although his gaze was still on Lee, he was actually always sensing the movements of those people in black and red cloud robes within Konohagakure. Now, they had already come to the competition field, seemingly to watch the match.
What is their purpose?
Are they in league with Orochimaru?
...
"Then, the match... begins!"
Yamashiro Aoba shouted.
"Whoosh!"
With his command, Lee on one side of the field moved instantly, and his speed was very fast, so fast that the naked eye of ordinary people could hardly catch his specific actions.
Knowing that his opponent was Naruto, Lee didn't fight with weights on, but had already taken off the weights before the fight, so his speed was very fast at the moment, and the audience couldn't help but exclaim at his speed, starting to take this ninja who only uses Taijutsu seriously.
'It's amazing, to be able to cultivate to this level with the talent of an ordinary person and ordinary training methods, it's really astonishing.'
Naruto watched Lee moving at high speed, and couldn't help but sigh: Lee, you are also a genius, effort and persistence are your talents, not everyone can make up their mind to keep trying, let alone in your situation.
"Go, Lee! Roar, youth!"
In the spectator stand, Might Guy stood up directly, waving his fists and shouting excitedly.
On the side, Kakashi sighed, Lee's speed was indeed very fast, and his training was very thorough, but unfortunately his opponent was Naruto, Naruto's speed would only be faster, Lee definitely had no chance of winning.
"Yes, Guy-sensei!!"
Rock Lee rushed to Naruto's back at high speed, swinging a punch from the blind spot, this strike, whether in speed or strength, was impeccable.
Unfortunately...
"Bang!"
As if he had anticipated it, Naruto turned around and blocked the punch with his hand, and his body did not retreat at all. The momentum of the two men's fists and feet meeting was very great, and the spectator stand once again erupted with exclamations.
'What kind of reaction speed is that?!'
Lee was shocked in his heart. He swiftly distanced himself, then launched a series of continuous and rapid attacks with a more serious attitude.
...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
After multiple encounters, he gradually began to feel a bit strained. Naruto didn't even need to look at him; with his perception alone, he could sense what the opponent was doing. Relying on his reaction speed, Naruto could easily fend off all attacks. The speed and strength that he took pride in offered no advantage against Naruto.
After the exchanges, Lee could affirm that Naruto was also a top-tier Taijutsu expert. His reaction speed and strength were beyond the comparison of ordinary ninjas. If he were to engage in a battle with me at full strength, I might not even stand a chance in the strongest Taijutsu...
Compared to this, Might Guy on the stage could naturally see it too. He gritted his teeth and glanced at the calm Kakashi next to him, finally saying, "Lee, use that technique, now is the time for youth to burn!"
"Yes, Guy Sensei!"
"The Eight Inner Gates - Third Gate of Life - Open!"
An astonishing surge of chakra erupted from Lee's body in an instant. The high-intensity blue chakra even caused the air to distort, allowing people far away to feel that powerful force.
But, it's not over yet!
He gritted his teeth and continued to break through the next gate in his body, erupting with even stronger chakra and shouted, "Fourth Gate of Pain, Open!!"
An even more powerful chakra burst out, green chakra swirling around Lee, his body and face also bulged with veins, and his skin turned red. This move had a very large side effect on him.
"Nice feeling."
Naruto's eyes shone slightly, saying, "Then, I should also bring out some strength! Heh!"
A powerful elemental force erupted from Naruto's body, the high-intensity green wind element burned like a flame on his body surface, the air around his body also appeared the same distortion as Lee, as if even space was suppressed by this chakra.
The people in the spectator stand entered a climax, people who didn't understand were cheering, feeling the strong strength of the Konohagakure ninja.
But... someone could see the problem...
"What is... that?"
Might Guy's mouth twitched a bit, looking at Naruto who was erupting with chakra, he could be 100% sure that Naruto definitely did not use The Eight Inner Gates.
But if it's not The Eight Inner Gates...
"He's just using elemental force very normally, that's his power." Kakashi sighed helplessly, saying, "Naruto's strength is very strong, far beyond your and my imagination, but you can rest assured, he's a good kid, he will control the measure, absolutely."
...
On the other side
"Is that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki? That's not the chakra of the Nine-Tails, nor is it The Eight Inner Gates, if I'm not mistaken.... that's just him erupting with chakra, just erupting with chakra has such an amazing momentum.... it's really too terrifying, this feeling, it's just like Senju Hashirama." A man in a black robe with red clouds stared at Naruto on the stage and said.
"Ah, so what, as long as I can get his blood, I can sacrifice him to the evil god, ahahaha!" Another man in an Akatsuki robe laughed.
"Sigh (this idiot)."
The angle sighed and said, "Contact the others, we change the target, start with his close friends, don't need to be too deliberate, can make him show flaws, can take blood is enough."
He squinted his eyes and continued to watch Naruto, gradually beginning to understand why the leader wanted to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in advance with them. If this guy continues to grow, there will be no chance to capture him in the future.
His potential is too terrifying!
...
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
In a short period of time, Naruto and Lee had already exchanged blows several times. The sound of Taijutsu collision was no less than that of Ninjutsu. The fight between these two people shocked many people who had a discriminatory view of pure Taijutsu ninjas. For the first time, they realized that using only Taijutsu could be so strong.
'Has the malice towards me weakened?'
Naruto didn't fight seriously, he thought to himself: Is it because my chakra is too strong, so they gave up targeting me? That's good.
On the other side, Lee, who was only able to 'tie' with Naruto by opening The Eight Inner Gates, was panting heavily. He looked at Naruto with a serious look and said, "Naruto, your strength is really very strong, but I still have one last move. If possible, I really don't want to use this move on a companion."other side
"Another move? Let me see it!"
Naruto said with a smile.
