"Yes, I don't know ninjutsu; I can only rely on taijutsu."
Haruno Sakura nodded earnestly, looking at Iruka with determination in her eyes, but felt that facing him now was a bit too soon.
So, she chose another target instead.
Ino.
Ino stepped forward, charging at Sakura with a speed that even approached ten meters per second. Before Sakura could react, she was kicked in the stomach, causing her to tumble away.
"Uh······"
Ino is that powerful?
Sakura, feeling the pain in her stomach, looked up only to realize that Ino hadn't stopped her movements because of her thoughts, and kicked toward Sakura's face.
Three inches!
When Sakura reopened her eyes, she saw that Ino had stopped moving, and the black-bottomed shoe that had been kicked towards her was only three inches from her face.
Sakura didn't dare to imagine what would have happened if Ino's kick had connected—her face would definitely be disfigured.
