In the training ground
Uchiha Obito and Akimichi Sayuri were standing in front of each other, ready to start the duel.
With the typical Uchiha black hairs and the fan symbol on the back of his jacket, Obito stood ready to face his opponent.
Opposite to him stood a petite girl, with below average height of the girls around her age, with her small build and cute appearance she looks like a 'harmless' little sister. She really differs from her typical clansmen, contrary to her who have much larger build.
Seeing his opponent, who is so small and cute makes Obito reileved, he thoughts happily, 'ah! I am lucky that i got paired up with Sayuri, who is the smallest in the whole class.'
He was feeling relieved that in the first round he didn't get to fight a tough opponent.
On the other hand Sayuri was feeling nervous under the tense gazes of everyone.
"Wow, Obito is really lucky that he got to fight Sayuri."
"Yeah, he got an easy win."
Several guys cursed Obito luck to get an easy opponent in his first round.
"He is unlucky." Haruku said, who was standing in the crowd with Kakashi and Rin, watching the match between Obito and Sayuri which was about to start.
"No, he is not just unlucky....he is very unlucky." Kakashi denies Haruku.
"Hmm....what are you guys talking about?" Rin feels puzzled, as why they are saying Obito is 'unlucky'.
"Just watch, Rin, you will soon understand everything." Haruku patiently told Rin to wait and watch.
Nara Shido who was acting as the referee of the match, soon starts the match.
"Are both parties ready."
"Yes! sensei." Obito confidently said, while Sayuri nervously nodded.
"Well, then lets start the match."
Getting the confirmation for the start of the battle.
Both Obito and Sayuri form the seal of confrontation.
Then, with a surprising agility, Obito makes the first move, he was like blur, and in seconds he was upon Sayuri, ready to strike at her.
While sayuri with a nervous expression on her face was standing rooted in the same spot.
Noticing this, the already confident Obito's confidence surge more widely. Thinking that the victory was in his grasp.
Then, As she enters his range of strike, he throws a punch at her shoulder, intending to disbalance her, while minimizing the injuries he can cause her.
Woosh~
Then, just as the punch was about to land on her, the nervous expression on her face transforms into a resolute one.
'Sorry, but i have to do what is necessary.' Sayuri thoughts with resolve.
And with swiftness she dodged the strike at the last moment, which greatly surprised Obito, as he wasn't expecting her. But even then his movement didn't even delay for a moment, as a person who belongs to a shinobi clan with a long history, combat senses were drilled in their DNA and then with an unfazed expression on his face he continues with another strike after another, but surprisingly all of his strikes were successfully dodged by Sayuri.
Then with a swiping leg strike he tries to throw her unbalanced and break her rhythm but even, that was dodged by her with a nimble movement, which looks like she already knows where he was going to strike her.
Again this greatly surprised Obito, whose every strike was swiftly dodged by her, and this time he decides to not underestimate her and takes this seriously.
After again catching up to her, he started to throw strikes after strikes at her, trying to overwhelm her, but surprisingly she was still able to dodge his strikes, and noticing this, he started to increase the intensity of his strikes, his punches carrying more power and every elbow strikes aimed at her vital parts which causes very difficulty for her to continue dodging, but finally, she was unable to dodge and a faster punch than others with more power behind it reaches her, about to land on her midsection.
Finally the punch landed on her, but it was not a successful hit as it was blocked by her left hand, and then she makes a counterattack, with her right hand, she throws a fist at his abdomen, being caught off guard, the small punch steadily lands on him, as the fist connects to his midsection, with a surprising force it dugs in his abdomen. Which causes him to bend his back and all the air leaves out from his lung.
And then Sayuri takes a step forward and again throws a strike at him, this time aiming at his face, which squarely lands on his face.
Causing him to fall on the ground, after that he immediately rolls to the side to dodge the follow up strikes from Sayuri. strikes from Sayuri.
As he stood up and gained the foothold , a bruise mark appeared on his face.
And watching this state of Obito , gasps of surprise were heard from the crowd.
"Holy shit! is Sayuri so strong."
"Yeah, it is unbelievable, with how small her body is, she packs considerable strength."
"Obito be careful!." Rin shouts, worried for Obito.
"Obito made a mistake for underestimating Sayuri, she is a stronger then she appears." Kakashi calls out the mistake of Obito.
Haruku also nodded and said with a serious tone, "He should be a bit more serious, but that will not change anything, as the outcome of this match was already set in the stone when Obito get paired up with Sayuri."
Having already got a defeat after underestimating her, this time , Obito charged at Sayuri with full power.
"But why are you saying 'set in stone'? Who knows, maybe Obito win can this match." Watching Obito struggling against Sayuri. Rin asks both Haruku and Kakashi, who have already given their verdict that Obito will lose this match.
Hearing this, Haruku replies, "Of course, anything can happen, but for now, it is not the matter of 'maybe' or 'can', it is just simple, that he will lose due to differences in skill and strength between them."
After that Kakashi also explains,"Yes, the difference between them is huge, as Sayuri is already proficient in her clan secret techniques, which boast her strength and every other aspect than her peers, which gives her a great initial boost in the start and will be very helpful in her journey ahead, while Obito is loosing because of his lack of hardwork and focus."
Currently, the match has entered its peak.
Obito was panting and a new bruise mark has appeared on his face.
While Sayuri was just slightly panting, but otherwise, she was fine with no sign indicating her being in a battle.
After taking a moment to assess each other, both of them again move towards each other.
Sayuri throws a palm strike towards Obito midsection which was deflected by Obito's hand, then Obito tries to counterattack by throwing a knee strike at Sayuri, which was also blocked by Sayuri with her other hand, but it was just a baited strike by Obito, after his knee strike got blocked by Sayuri, Obito throws a full power punch at the face of Sayuri, but at the last moment Sayuri grab his punch and get a firm hold on his hand.
"Oh shit!" Obito exclaims, already knowing the outcome.
When you are in a fight against someone, whose strength is considerably stronger than you, then you should never let him get a hold on you, otherwise you will understand that rather painfully.
As Sayuri makes a tight grip on Obito's hand. She pulls him towards herself using her greater strength, and gives a strong blow to Obito in his abdomen, which makes Obito scream in pain. After that she pulls him off the ground and gives him a washerman beat.
Obito even loses his consciousness for a second and lays there for a few more seconds before he stands up.
"Sayuri is the winner of this match." Shido announces the result of this match and then calls out for the other participants to start the next match.
After winning the match Sayuri happily returned to the crowd, while Obito, who had lost the match, returned dejectedly.
And seeing this, Rin steps forward and consoles him, "Obito, don't be depressed, you did your best."
Haruku also approached them ," she is correct, you did great there. Currently, even in the whole class there are just a few who can fight with her, it was just your bad luck that you got to pair up with her."
"Yeah, stand proud, you are strong." Kakashi also makes the statement.
