Chapter 41 - Chapter 40

This time, instead of red flames, the Hokage saw a red ball of chakra appear in Yuta's hand. But there was a difference, this chakra seemed much more docile than it normally would have been. Like a red mist, it enveloped Yuta's right hand and remained motionless. Hiruzen thought something was wrong about Yuta, something other than the energy in his hand, but he couldn't tell what it was at first glance.

As Hiruzen leaned forward and continued to watch Yuta, he finally realized what was strange. Yuta's shadow was larger than usual, and the shadow had two eyes glowing red. Hiruzen took a cold breath and marveled at this boy's unprecedented talent at his age. At this moment Tsunade's voice came from the side; "Has Yuta's hair always been this black?"

Hiruzen sighed when he heard that his student was surprised by Yuta's hair out of all the things to be surprised about and signaled to the young Jonin ninja in the center of the arena that he could start the match.

Yuta had already set up Bala according to the information in his mind and now all he had to do was fire it.

The referee ninja in the center of the giant arena looked at the children waiting in three different directions, stroked his long straight hair with his hands, and shouted: "Start". The referee ninja had already gathered chakra under his feet before he shouted and instantly moved out of the arena with his body flicker technique.

What should have happened was that the referee went to a place where he could sit down and watch the match, but as soon as he moved, he saw a red ball of energy passing in front of his eyes and he stopped immediately. The referee first looked through his flying hair to where the energy ball was coming from and then, followed by a loud bang, turned his head in the direction of the energy ball. The first thing he saw was Yuta standing in a punching position, the second thing he saw was the bloodied boy slowly sliding down the large dent in the center of the earth wall that had been set up to keep out kunai to the spectators.

When Yuta's bala hit the boy from the uchiha clan, the boy didn't even have a chance to react and flew out of the arena with the energy ball and crashed into the earth wall.

Yuta's unexpected display of power caused the entire stadium to fall silent. It was as if a giant cloud-like monster had descended from the sky and was strangling all the people. Everyone was looking at their relatives, wanting to speak, but no sound came out of anyone's throat. It was not only the villagers who were surprised, but also the jonins who were supposed to catch the student thrown out of the arena in case of such an accident, and even Yuta himself.

The silence lasted until the body slid off the wall and fell to the ground. That was enough time for Yuta to realize and accept that his ability was stronger than he had imagined. Yuta realized that he had accidentally broken one of the two dolls with which he had taken out his anger from the previous match and looked at the other. This doll was now swallowing hard as he looked at himself with one tomoe sharingan.

The remaining boy had opened his Sharingan the moment Yuta had made his move and had also seen how Bala had shot his friend. If Yuta were to use this technique on him he wouldn't stand a chance, he wasn't fast enough. So the boy decided to use his strongest technique without hesitation.

Yuta felt a pleasant glow in the red glow of the boy's eyes that attracted him, but he ignored it and watched as the boy made the seals pitifully slowly. "You are really slow. In a real battle, I would've killed you already, but this is a game, and I want to have some fun with you. So don't hold back..."

Yuta's words set off alarms in his opponent's brain and he started to think quickly. He had seen in the previous match that Yuta's weakest point was his low taijutsu skills and his technique to disqualify his friend was very dangerous. The Uchiha began to run at Yuta, determined not to give him the opportunity to use the same skill again.

Meanwhile, out of the corner of his eye, Yuta realized that he was seeing more clearly than ever as he searched for Hyuga Hikata in the stands and suspiciously checked his stats.

Yuta noticed a huge growth in his stats, while at the same time, he never stopped looking at his opponent through the transparent system screen.

The Uchiha continued to run at Yuta at full speed, but in Yuta's eyes, he was little more than a snail.

The crowd thought that Yuta was once again about to be defeated by his weakness in taijutsu, but Yuta blocked his opponent's right and left punches with his arm, then caught a kick attack to the head, lifted the Uchiha into the air and quickly slammed him to the ground.

People watched in amazement as the Uchiha's body bounced like a ball after making a dent in the ground and was kicked by Yuta. The Uchiha's body managed to stop after being dragged to one end of the arena.

"Hoy! Damn Hikata! Can you see? My mercy for you..." Yuta took the opportunity to immediately restore his prestige in the eyes of the people. Yuta remembered what Itachi had once said about the Hokage - the Hokage is not loved by everyone, the Hokage is the person loved by everyone.

That meant to become a Hokage disciple with a clear head in this damned village, he first needed the talent and popularity to become a Hokage disciple.

The Uchiha vomited some blood as he sat up, holding his stomach. Meanwhile, footsteps began to sound in the boy's ears.

He turned his head to see what was coming and saw Yuta walking slowly towards him. As if he really wanted to kill him this time.
