Escape From Konoha

Looking at the waves rolled up by the sand in front of him, from Bai's perspective, there was no area on the entire competition stage that was not swept and surrounded by this wave of sand.

In other words, if you don't do any defense, you will have no place on this stage.

To create such a huge sea of ​​sand all at once and turn an area of ​​tens of meters into a desert was something that no ordinary ninja could create.

If you don't create terrain that is favorable to you as soon as possible, there will be no suspense in the next battle.

Thinking of this, Bai didn't hesitate, he made mudras with his hands, and the materialized Chakra flowed on the surface of his body, causing the surrounding air to plummet, and the water vapor in the air instantly condensed into ice, causing a biting chill to roll up on the field.

boom!

The waves of sand rushed in, comparable to the attack of a torrent of steel, and slammed into the ice wall that suddenly appeared around Bai's body, making terrifying crashing sounds.

In the center of the sand sea, Bai was wrapped in a huge ice ball. Part of the inside of the ice ball was hollow, allowing people to stand safely in it.

Whether it's front, back, left, right, or up and down, the puck is defended without blind spots.

Despite the continuous impact of the sea of ​​sand outside, the ice ball remained motionless, only splashing ice shards, but it was quickly compensated by Shiro's chakra and recovered completely.

Then, Bai released his sealed hands inside the ice ball and waved to both sides.

"Disperse!"

Crash!

With the huge ice ball at the center, water gushes out, like a flood bursting its banks, covering the sand in one go, and rushes towards Gaara.

A majestic sand wall was erected in the sand hole, and the hands of sand were rolled up like waves and grabbed towards the incoming water waves.

The water waves and sand waves attacked each other, causing the air in the enchantment to vibrate violently, roaring, and finally stopped evenly.

Bai slightly panted, seeing that his attack was blocked again, he was not too disappointed.

Just seeing Gaara take up his attack without even taking a breath, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

This guy's chakra is really abundant, and he is still able to handle it with ease. Bai felt slightly helpless in his heart.

Through previous battles, he has already analyzed it.

That is the sand in the I love Luo Gourd, which is faster than ordinary sand. In terms of speed, it can be compared with his water instant body. But the strange thing is that Gaara itself has not shown a strong body technique. Generally speaking, it should be impossible to keep up with his instant body technique.

But here's the problem. The sand inside the gourd seems to be able to directly see his movements, even beyond Gaara's own control... How should I explain it, that is, it seems that he is fighting two people, not one-on-one.

The most important thing is that after the sand in the gourd is wet with water, the speed will not be reduced, or the reduction is very limited.

And the large-scale sand created by Gaara later, although the attack and scale are very impressive, even if it is encountered by a Jonin, it is estimated to be a headache, but the speed and flexibility are very poor, and it is extremely afraid of water.

Once this part of the sand touches the water, it becomes slower.

Although the power is still impressive, it is meaningless if you can't catch the enemy's attack.

These two types of sand alone are not scary. What is scary is that Gaara can control them at the same time, which is extremely tricky.

And judging from the way Gaara produced such a large amount of sand and still didn't blush or breath, the other party's chakra amount was very sufficient. At least there is little point in procrastinating and fighting a protracted war.

Because the longer he delays, the slimmer his chance of winning becomes, especially in such a small space, it becomes even less possible to fight a protracted battle with Gaara.

Thinking of this, Bai made a decision.

But when he was prepared, Gaara made a new move.

I saw his hands forming seals, and a powerful chakra burst out from his body. Under the influence of this powerful chakra, the surrounding sand quickly began to gather towards Gaara.

And in a very short period of time, they gathered into a maracas, wrapped Gaara's body inside, and guarded it tightly.

"..."

Sure enough, how could the other party not think of things that he could think of? Shiro sighed.

As the son of Kazekage, he is definitely not a fool who cannot see the situation clearly. On the contrary, he is quite flexible and smart.

Since the game cannot be won in a short period of time, a protracted war has become a feasible solution.

Judging from the size of the maracas and the aura floating on the surface, it was simply unrealistic to break the maracas and attack Gaara himself.

Unless it's the kind of high-end ninjutsu that can focus a little and perform explosive thrusts.

And that kind of ninjutsu... Shiro doesn't know how to do it.

My own ice escape does not focus on this aspect of ability.

Therefore, if you want to win the battle, you can only let Gaara himself come out.

If he stayed in that turtle shell, Bai wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

Moreover, that maracas would definitely consume a certain amount of chakra, and Gaara couldn't last too long.

But even so, Shiro would not put his hope in Gaara exhausting his chakra first.

Because Gaara made the final defense, Gaara would have nothing to worry about next. He would face a storm of attacks, and the battle would not last long.

As Bai expected, after Gaara wrapped his body with sand dunes, it was accompanied by a strong murderous aura, which made the temperature of the already frozen air drop down again.

The sand beneath our feet began to roll and surge, as if it were the prelude to a volcanic eruption. Just feeling the vibration under our feet made people feel extremely uneasy.

Without any hesitation, Bai used the teleportation technique to escape from the spot and used high-speed dodge.

The moment his figure disappeared, hands of sand flew out from the sand beneath his feet, grabbing the air fiercely.

It's just that this is not over yet. The moment his body moves away, waves of sand rush in from the corners of the competition stage. In the eyes of outsiders, the entire venue seems to have become a living desert creature, constantly Use the cat-and-mouse method to capture Bai's figure.

Stepping on the sand wall, the body retreats rapidly, and at the same time as it lands, it also teleports again. Once the speed slows down or the body stops, it may be caught by the hand of sand that came from nowhere, thus defeating the battle.

Just looking at the sand walls that were closing in around him, the space for Bai to move became smaller and smaller.

If this continues, sooner or later he will be caught by Gaara's concentrated hand of sand.

The people in the audience were also exclaiming. For them, this level of ninja battle was a feast for their eyes and worthy of the ticket price.

"Is that really the case?"

Bai wondered why Gaara, who was clearly in the sand ball, was able to determine his position over and over again, but when he saw an eyeball floating in mid-air, he immediately understood.

Protect yourself with sand balls, and then use ninjutsu to create an external eyeball organ connected to your optic nerve. Even in a closed environment, you can capture the enemy's traces very well.

Snapped!

He saw that his calf was entangled by a hand of sand.

White pupils shrank.

"Oops!"

The speed of this sand hand is very fast, and it is not made of ordinary sand. Bai realized that the palm hidden in the ordinary sand hand is probably made of Gaara's special sand.

It seems that this sand can not only protect Gaara,

At the same time, it can also be manipulated by Gaara himself, but usually Gaara allows it to act, making people feel that this special sand does not have the ability to attack the enemy.

The huge force dragged Bai down, and the surrounding sand layer was quickly replenished. Like a torrent, it was squeezed upwards, swallowing Bai's body quickly, and buried in the bottomless dark sand layer.

Buzz!

The low and terrifying vibration sound, after a moment's delay, the ground under his feet continued to shake and tremble, and lasted for several seconds before gradually subsiding.

The sandy land was desolate and silent, like a domain of death, only the gentle wind and sand blowing.

The sand ball is like an egg with a broken shell, slowly revealing Gaara inside.

Looking at the calm scene in front of him, Gaara was also panting lowly. Obviously, the previous moves also took a lot of wear and tear on him.

Just as he was about to step out of the sand ball, he suddenly sensed something, and a strange breath came, which made him feel a little bit wrong.

His head jerked up.

An ice mirror was hung in the sky at some point, and its height exceeded the external sand eye, so the sand eye did not notice the ice mirror hanging in the air.

The figure of Bai was engraved on the ice mirror, the moment Gaara looked up, the figure of Bai disappeared from the ice mirror with a whoosh, and appeared in front of Gaara the next moment.

"it's over!"

Special sand is not by Gaara's side at the moment, and with his speed, there is enough time to defeat Gaara.

"Qian Sha Shuixiang!"

Using the water vapor in the air to condense into a large amount of water Senbon, under Shiro's control, he shot at Gaara's body crazily.

The sound of "chichichi" kept coming, and countless water senbons successfully penetrated into Gaara's body.

Bai's eyes wavered slightly at this moment, looking at the sand in front of him like blood splashing, he realized that Gaara in front of him was just a clone made of sand, because it was more advanced than the general clone technique, so it would be very difficult for someone without special perception ability Distinguish between the main body and the clone.

"Sand-bound coffin!"

Gaara's cold voice came from behind.

The sand ball that originally collapsed quickly closed up and wrapped around Bai's body at a dexterous speed. Several hands of sand were formed on it, increasing the binding ability of the sand.

"I see, you have the same idea as me?"

Cold sweat broke out on Bai's face.

Gaara said nothing, just raised his hand, ready to squeeze it and deliver the final blow to Shiro.

At this moment, a clicking sound sounded, causing Gaara's gesture to pause.

With Bai as the core, the air continued to make freezing sounds. Not only the surrounding air, but also the sand surrounding Bai's body, also froze.

Then, it turned into white ice powder and spread with the wind.

Bai fell to the ground, and his right hand that was lowered was stained with blood, but he maintained the gesture of forming a seal with one hand.

It can be imagined that in the sand layer just now, he spent a lot of effort to successfully form the seal.

Gaara's heart was awe-inspiring, this was an extremely formidable opponent.

The ice release blood succession limit, the assassination type water release technique combined with ice release, and the ability to form seals with one hand are completely different from the ninjas he fought in the chuunin exams before.

The special sand that came out of the gourd dispersed like clouds, closely protecting himself. Only in this way could Gaara feel a sense of security.

The same trick would never succeed twice, and Gaara was not too sure about the upcoming battle.

The white in front of him made him feel tremendous pressure.

Just as Gaara was thinking about how to deal with Haku next, Haku raised his injured right hand in a leisurely manner.

Gaara also raised his hand in a warning gesture.

"I surrender."

Shiro calmly said these words from his mouth, causing Gaara, who raised his hand, to move. His eyes widened slightly, and he looked in disbelief at Shiro, who surrendered and admitted defeat.

Give up and admit defeat?

Not only Gaara, but also the surrounding audience and the other candidates were extremely surprised.

In their opinion, although Bai was injured, it was not serious and he was still capable of fighting.

"What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?"

Gaara asked with a cold face.

Shiro put down his palm and said with a smile: "I don't mean that. My chakra is almost used up. If we continue to fight, I feel there is no hope of winning, so I just give up."

Gaara's moves never succeed twice, and the same goes for his Ice Release.

And once Gaara hides in that turtle shell again, he will be invincible.

And the important point is that his chakra is indeed not enough.

He had used ice escape, water escape, and water escape teleportation technique too many times, and the remaining chakra was not enough for him to defeat Gaara, a powerful enemy.

Gaara frowned, seeming to doubt the authenticity of Shiro's words.

Because he was not a sentient ninja, he didn't know the status of Shiro's chakra.

Onigashima Ninja walked into the field and announced: "The winner of this match is Gaara."

Hearing the announcement from Onigashima Shinobi, Gaara knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and he snorted dissatisfiedly.

The desire to fight that had just been aroused disappeared like this, making him feel extremely unhappy inside.

But he also knew not to have an attack at this time, so he just silently collected the sand beside him, stuffed the gourd with a stopper, and slowly walked back to the observation deck.

Byakuya knew that Gaara was feeling a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything and went back in the other direction.

"What a wonderful match, Kazekage-sama. I didn't expect that the outstanding genin of our village would be no match for your noble master."

Terumi Mei, who attended as the acting Mizukage, turned his head slightly and smiled at Rasa beside him.

"It's just a fluke. The white genin of your village can easily capture both ice and water types. They will definitely be rare jounin in the future."

Although Rasa was delighted with Gaara's victory, she still responded calmly on the surface.

He could see that it was not easy for Gaara to win, which also showed that the quality of the ninja in this final was very high, and it was not at the same level as the previous two games.

After the previous battle, the stage venue used for the competition has been shattered and turned into a whole desert.

The Jonin of the Kingdom of Ghosts who was in the triangle barrier, and the ninja who maintained the barrier, sat down and formed seals with their hands.

The competition stage, which was originally a desert, rolled up like a whirlpool of mudslides and began to occupy the sand space on the stage.

Within a few moments, all the sand on the playing field disappeared, and with the cooperation of the four Earth Breaking Jōnin, it returned to its complete appearance before the game.

"Now please invite the two players from the second game to come down for the second round of fighting."

Onigashima Ninja looked up at the observation tower, glanced at Naruto and Shino, and asked them to come down to compete.

"It's my turn to appear!"

Naruto touched his fist lightly on his chest, looking at him, he couldn't wait anymore.

Shino turned his head to look at Naruto and pushed up the sunglasses on his face.

"Then, I'll go down first."

Kazuya, Hinata, and Kamininaku greeted each other, and Shino walked down the stairs on one side.

Naruto soon followed and stood on the field, looking straight at Shino who was standing opposite with his hands in his coat pockets.

"I will win this battle!"

Before the fight, Naruto made a statement.

"Sorry, although I admit Naruto's strength, you are not my opponent now."

Shino said calmly.

He didn't know what kind of practice Naruto had done in the past few days to dare to say such words with confidence, but in his opinion, Naruto's strength would not be much stronger than during the qualifiers in just a few days.

Moreover, the sneak attack tactic of digging tunnels is useless to him.

The parasites he controls, besides being able to attack the enemy, also have strong reconnaissance capabilities.

Naruto's crappy sneak attack tactics can only deal with opponents who have no reconnaissance ability.

"Are you two ready?"

Onigashima Shinobi asked.

Naruto and Shino both looked at each other and said nothing.

Onijima Shinobu saw this, nodded slightly, waved and said: "Then, the game begins!"

After the sound landed, Shino raised his hands directly, and a large number of parasites flew out from the cuffs, turning into a black cloud and covering Naruto's body.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

Naruto also formed seals with his hands, opened his mouth, and blew a violent storm forward.

The worm cloud flew away, but it was not very lethal to the parasitic worms, and soon the worm cloud gathered again and pressed up.

It would be great if I knew Sasuke's Fire Release. Seeing that his Feng Dun couldn't suppress Shino's insect cloud, Naruto immediately thought of Sasuke's Fire Dun Jutsu, which was extremely lethal to this group of insects.

It's a pity that he doesn't know Fire Escape, and he only knows the basics of Wind Escape. If you want to use Escape to suppress the parasites, it's impossible to win.

But this was what Naruto expected. He never thought that he could defeat Shino so easily.

Fortunately, he prepared a secret weapon for this.

Thinking of this, Naruto smiled sinisterly.

When the cloud of insects gathered and started to attack again, Naruto took advantage of this opportunity and quickly took out a projectile from his ninja bag and threw it towards the ground.

boom!

The projectile exploded, and the lavender smoke spread quickly, swallowing up Shino's parasites as well.

Buzz!

The parasite vibrates its wings greatly, making this vibrating sound.

For some reason, Shino suddenly felt that the parasitic insects became extremely restless and began to lose control of him, flying randomly in the lavender smoke like headless flies.

There's something wrong with the smoke! Shino saw the smoke spreading on the field and suddenly felt something bad.

He didn't expect Naruto to have this means of restraining his parasites.

"Awaken, Shino, this is the secret weapon I specially prepared for you! The art of shadow clone!"

The sound of banging and banging continued to sound, and more than ten Narutos rushed out of the mist, all rushing towards Shino.

Shino was very reluctant to control the parasitic insect that was starting to get out of control, and there were only so many shadow clones that could be blocked.

Several of the shadow clones directly broke through the insect cloud's blockade, rushed in front of Shino, and attacked his body with their fists.

Shino had to use taijutsu to deal with it. Although he had been involved in taijutsu for a while, it was just to strengthen his body. He had the family's secret technique and did not need to specialize in taijutsu.

Therefore, facing the joint attack of several shadow clones, Shino quickly felt under pressure.

Without paying attention, one of the shadow clones punched him in the side of the face, sending him flying and rolling several meters before he could stop.

When he stood up, Shino's mouth began to bleed, but the shadow clone created by Naruto did not stop its offensive and attacked him again, trying to take him down in one go.

"ah!"

Several shadow clones surrounding Shino suddenly screamed.

I saw a bunch of parasitic bugs crawling out of Shino's sleeves again, and began to spin at high speed, forming an iron wall-like protection around the body. The parasitic bugs climbed onto the shadow clone and began to bite crazily.

Each shadow clone exploded and disappeared into white smoke.

Seeing that the lavender smoke was slowly disappearing, Shino felt that the parasitic bug that had been out of control began to recover, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this kind of smoke is a bit tricky, it doesn't seem to last too long, and it has no lethality to the parasites at all. At most, it makes the parasites feel restless and manic, and they lose control to a certain extent.

When he was about to summon the parasites and attack Naruto, Naruto once again took out the same projectiles as before from his ninja bag, and there were two of them.

Shino's heart suddenly became clouded and became unpleasant.

He kind of missed the dull Naruto when he was in the ninja school.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

The two projectiles exploded, and lavender smoke swept in again. Naruto repeated his old trick of using the shadow clone technique, summoning the same number of shadow clones as before. Looking at Shino, Naruto's shadow clones were like a group of hounds seeing fresh flesh and blood, swooping up without any form.

It's over! Shino only had this idea in his mind.

Parasitic bugs are his only means of fighting the enemy. Although in a one-on-one situation, his physical skills are 50-50 equal to Naruto's, what he has to face now is not just Naruto, but also a group of shadow clones. .

Naruto, who pounced on him like a mad dog, immediately surrounded Shino and wrapped him into a huge human flesh ball, from which sounds of punches and kicks continued to be heard.

Although he couldn't directly see the scene inside, he could tell from the sound that Shino, surrounded by many shadow clones, was being treated.

Even the people on the observation deck felt bursts of physical pain.

Kakashi covered his face and looked at Naruto who was punching and kicking the enemy like a mad dog. He would never admit that this kind of taijutsu, which was worse than the students of the ninja school, was taught by him, a jounin.

However, thinking about the current scene, it seems that Naruto does not need to specialize in the so-called taijutsu. He can just use the human sea tactic to push all the way.

"That insecticide against parasitic insects, you made it for Naruto, right, Sakura? Naruto doesn't have this ability."

After Kakashi was speechless, he looked at Sakura aside and asked.

Sakura didn't deny it, nodded and said: "After the qualifying match that day, Naruto picked up a few parasites on the field and came back, and then asked me to make medicine against parasites. However, due to time constraints, Naruto's That smoke bomb can only make the parasite lose control for about six to eight seconds."

"No, losing control for six to eight seconds is fatal enough."

Especially for ninjas like Shino who rely too much on their family's secret skills, once they are targeted, unless there are special circumstances, they can only rely on physical skills to deal with the enemy.

The physical skill level of the opponent is comparable to Naruto in one-on-one situations, but Naruto has the advantage of crowd tactics.

If you lack physical skills, you can make up for it with shadow clones.

Therefore, the outcome of this battle has been decided when the parasites are out of control.

(PS: After looking through the formula book, I found out that Gaara’s semen in the first part is 8, that is to say, Gaara’s chakra is about 1.6 calories. The second part of Shippuden is directly changed to 10. As expected, the chakra of jinchuriki is very strong. After adulthood, jinchuriki's energy is estimated to start at an average of 10.)
