Chereads / Dimensional Kaguya Ōtsutsuki / Chapter 17 - Initial Display Of Strength

Chapter 17 - Initial Display Of Strength

Without any suspense, since Kaguya is also a newly graduated Genin who joined the Anbu and hasn't performed any missions, there naturally wouldn't be any information about her.

Naruto sighed regretfully on the side, making Kaguya want to kick him again. She finally understood why Sakura was so harsh with Naruto—he was like a piece of clingy gum, impossible to deal with properly.

At this moment, Kabuto Yakushi took out another card, placed it on the ground, and touched it with his finger, revealing a world map.

"This time, the participating villages include Konoha, Sand, Rain, Kusa, Taki, and Oto. Each village has sent many outstanding Genin to take the exam. The Otogakure is a newly established small village, so there isn't much information. However, each one of them is very capable."

"What should we do? I'm starting to lose confidence," Hinata said weakly, her face full of worry.

Not only Hinata, but the others around them also became more serious, no longer as relaxed as before.

"It's nothing," Kaguya smiled gently. "Have confidence in yourself, and don't forget I'm here to help you." She squeezed Hinata's small hand as she spoke.

Hinata seemed to be comforted by Kaguya's words, feeling much more at ease and less nervous than before.

Meanwhile, from a distance.

"Did you hear that?" an Oto-nin smirked. "He said Otogakure is just a small village."

"How disappointing," another Oto-nin agreed, his head wrapped in bandages, exposing only one eye, bending his waist like a hunchback.

"Shall we play with them a bit?" the female Oto-nin sneered.

"Indeed," the bandaged Oto-nin's eye widened, exuding a terrifying gleam. "They think we're second-rate ninjas. Let's help him update his records. Otogakure's ninjas are known for their cruelty." The "him" referred to was Kabuto.

As soon as the words fell, they charged at Kabuto like arrows.

An Oto-nin leaped into the air, brandishing two kunai and hurling them at Kabuto.

Kabuto quickly leaned back, the kunai clanging against the spot where he had been standing.

Before Kabuto could catch his breath, the bandaged Oto-nin appeared in front of him, rolling up his sleeve to reveal an arm full of holes, and threw a powerful punch at Kabuto.

Kabuto swiftly dodged to the side, sliding away from the forceful punch.

"Too slow." Just as a smile appeared on Kabuto's face, there was a sudden "bang," and cracks appeared on his glasses, the lenses shattering and falling to the ground.

"So that's how it is," Kabuto smiled, taking off his broken glasses. "It's this kind of attack."

"What happened? He clearly dodged," Sasuke said, walking over quickly. "Why did his glasses..."

"It must have brushed against his nose," Shikamaru said, arms crossed.

"No," Kaguya approached, smiling faintly. "It's a sound wave attack. The holes in his arm create ultrasonic waves when they interact with the air, which can attack the body and cause dizziness."

Before Kaguya could finish speaking, Kabuto's pupils shrank, and he fell to his knees, vomiting and showing a painful expression.

Kaguya's mouth curled up. Kabuto's acting was really impressive—so realistic that he could probably win an award in her original world.

These Otogakure ninjas are likely Orochimaru's subordinates: Zaku, Dosu, and Kin. The one using ultrasonic attacks should be Dosu, the female Oto-nin is Kin, and the remaining one is Zaku.

"Senpai," Naruto and Sakura hurried over to support Kabuto.

"You're nothing special, even though you're a veteran who has participated in the exam for four consecutive years," Dosu sneered, then turned to Kaguya. "I didn't expect you to know so much."

"It's not that I know a lot; it's that you are too weak," Kaguya smiled faintly. "But I'm interested in your abilities. How about a spar?"

"No," Sakura rushed over. "You can't beat him."

"Don't worry," Kaguya waved her hand. "He's just a small fry."

"You call us small fry?" Dosu sneered, charging at Kaguya like a black shadow, faster than when he fought Kabuto. In an instant, he reached Kaguya and threw a punch at her chest.

Kaguya seemed to be caught off guard, staring blankly ahead as Dosu's punch landed on her chest, sending her flying backward.

"Kaguya!" Naruto shouted, running towards her.

Before Naruto could reach her, Kaguya disappeared in a puff of white smoke. It was a clone.

"What?" Dosu's eyes widened, sensing danger.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!" A cold voice came from behind him.

Dosu turned just in time to see a massive fireball hurtling toward him, too late to dodge.

With a loud explosion, Dosu's position erupted, the noise deafening, and the shockwave knocking people over.

When the smoke cleared, Dosu was revealed, half-kneeling, supporting himself with one hand. His body was scorched, emitting a burnt smell. He coughed a few times, clearly injured.

"Amazing!"

"No way, she can use Fire Style?"

"Isn't that a C-rank jutsu?"

"Aren't the Hyuga clan unable to use elemental jutsu?"

"Not only that, didn't you see her use Shadow Clone Jutsu earlier?"

"She just graduated from the Ninja Academy."

"To have such skill right after graduating is incredible."
