Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Chapter 137 Instant Kill

Chapter 139 Instant Kill

"Now, please welcome our fourth champion, Uchiha Akaishi!"

Akaishi had been watching all day and was already getting impatient.

Immediately, a "Body Instantaneous Movement" technique is used.

All that could be seen was a figure carrying a huge round fan appearing in the arena!

"Hahaha, why are you wearing a Chunin's vest?"

"Theoretically, it doesn't say only Chunin can wear it. You can wear the Divine Robe if you want—"

"Another Uchiha—but I've never heard of this one before."

"Is that huge fan on your back a weapon?"

"I heard from my nephew that Uchiha Akaishi's performance at the Ninja Academy wasn't very good—"

"Then how come you're still the champion? So far, even though all three initial champions lost, they all successfully advanced in the end!"

""

"They seem to be Minato Namikaze's teammates; it's probably part of a tactical arrangement, right?"

The villagers were completely unfamiliar with Uchiha Akaishi, even more so than with Haruno Hō.

After all, Haruno Cho's ninja academy results were among the best, and he was also from a commoner background, making him more recognizable. In contrast, Akaishi not only had average grades, but was also a Uchiha who was respected but kept at a distance.

But it's okay————

Akaishi's face was full of the expression that said, "Today I'll let you get to know me."

"Want to challenge me to the stage?" Akaishi directly stole Hatake's line.

Seeing this, Hatake chuckled and shook his head, offering no correction.

Just then, it was seen that both Iwagakure and Kirigakure had held back, waiting for Konoha's side—Yakushi Nonou came up alone!

This sparked a flurry of discussion among the audience.

"Who is this little girl? She's even wearing a Konoha headband—"

"What's going on? Why are you targeting our own people with these challenges?"

"I don't know. My son graduated last year and said he didn't know him either."

When Shimura Danzo faced the questioning from Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, his face darkened.

"I told you, it's her own misunderstanding!" Danzo said irritably.

He did indeed give the order for Yakushi Nonou to test, and ideally, to thoroughly defeat, the Uchiha clan; if that failed—

However, he overlooked one point: Yakushi Nonou was one of the orphans he had secretly raised before. The closed training and brainwashing made her completely ignorant of human relationships. Unfortunately, with the examiners from Kirigakure and Iwagakure watching over her, he was unable to approach the genin taking the exam at this time.

And so, Yakushi Nonou continued to rigidly carry out her orders—

Inuzuka Tsurugi and Aburame Shii exchanged a glance. Seeing that only Yakushi Nonou went up, they both came up to the stage as well.

"Haha! Akaishi, how about we settle our score for the previous match?"

"I haven't played against you yet."

After Inuzuka Tsurugi and Aburame Shiki came up, they made a point of interacting with Akaishi first—so that, at least on the surface, it would appear to be a friendly sparring match between Konoha ninjas.

It seems that Yakushi Nonou isn't so unconventional after all.

Seeing how the Konoha genin resolved the awkward situation, Kirigakure, who had initially intended to watch the show and gain an advantage, suddenly had a blue bamboo shoot-shaped head step forward—it was none other than Rin, who carried two long swords on her back.

Seeing this, Akaishi's gaze lingered on Yakushi Nonou several times before he finally pointed at Ryo.

Just now, the Uchiha bloodline flowing through Akashi's body clashed with his rationality.

The Uchiha bloodline, like the young Uchiha men in the audience shouting "Akaishi-nii," fueled Akaishi's desire to directly confront this bespectacled girl under Danzo's command.

However, reason tells Akaishi that now is not the time to argue with Danzo.

In the end, Akaishi chose "external enemy" first.

Perhaps fearing a swift and decisive victory, Kirigakure clearly studied tactics before sending this person, who is likely one of the two stronger remaining individuals.

The four people currently in Kirigakure are Suigetsu Hozuki, Hikaru, Momochi Senzan, and Ganryu. The first two are relatively strong, while the latter two are noticeably weaker.

"The first three champions all advanced in the end—I wonder if you will be different. If you are defeated in the first round, that would be terrible, right?" At this moment, Ling used psychological tactics on Akaishi to increase his psychological pressure.

Ling understood very well that the Uchiha clan of Konoha had a very strong sense of self-esteem, and they especially couldn't stand the fact that their performance was the worst.

However, he made one mistake—

"Of course I'm different from them, I'll keep winning until the end! Only the weak have to advance from the loser's bracket, hahaha—" Akaishi said nonchalantly.

Ling, everyone: ————

The other Konoha champion, Uchiha Fugaku, merely twitched his lips slightly—normally, he'd call him "Brother Fugaku," but any Uchiha in this situation would likely have ignored whether Fugaku lived or died and started yelling at him—

Ling did not expect that the other party would be completely unaffected by the psychological attack.

As the battle began, both sides simultaneously started forming hand seals, all using short-hand ninjutsu.

Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique!

Earth Escape: Submerged in the Earth!

One releases mist, the other dives directly underground —

At this moment, Onoki's expression changed, and he said, "Indeed, not bad."

I'm referring, of course, to Akaishi's Earth Release technique.

Onoki had previously heard from Rōshi that Akaishi of Konoha was highly skilled in Earth Release and even combination ninjutsu.

Looking at Akaishi's "Submarine Diving in the Earth," we can see that he has already gained a deeper understanding of Earth Release chakra transformations.

Indeed, this is true; Akaishi's mastery of the "subtle filling (integration)" technique in Earth Release has already reached 10%.

At the same time, the red stone underground directly formed a cross seal —

Secret Technique: Mirror Clone Technique!

The next moment, a mirror image of Red Stone appeared out of thin air on the ground, head down and feet up, and then leaped away after a somersault with one hand on the ground.

Underground, it's difficult to use physical clones other than "earth clones" unless one has truly complete control over the earth.

But it doesn't matter to Akaishi—he can make a mirror image appear above him, which is equivalent to creating a mirror image above his head!

then----

Secret Technique: The Art of Mirror Eye Communication!

Upon closer inspection, it can be noticed that the Sharingan of the Mirror Clone has become somewhat hazy at this moment—

At this point, the eyes of the main body and the mirror clone became "common".

This is one of the little tricks that Mirror taught Akaishi after he learned how to use Mirror Clone.

Within a certain range, it allows the vision of both the original body and the mirror clone to be used interchangeably.

This reminded Akaishi of the scene when he faced those three Kawa ninja during the preliminary rounds—at the time, he felt that their sensory abilities seemed exceptionally strong, making it impossible to ambush them from behind, and now it seemed—

It's very likely that those three pairs of eyes shared the same vision!

Now that Akaishi and Mirror Clone share the same vision, Mirror Clone immediately used the ground perception inherent in "Earth Dive" to locate the opponent.

The mirror clone directly probed forward and launched an attack.

Kakucha—

The Uchiha fan clashed with the opponent's twin swords, but—

The opponent instantly turned into a pool of clear water and disappeared, revealing itself to be a "water clone" impersonating him!

The water clone possesses only one-tenth the strength of the original body, and is naturally far from being a match for the mirror clone. Meanwhile—

Ling's true form, which had been lurking nearby and undetectable even by ground perception, immediately slashed at him with its twin blades.

The Hidden Mist's "Mist Concealment Technique + Silent Assassination Technique" is their signature assassination style, and it cannot be easily countered by a simple "Earth Dive." However—

As the twin blades slashed into the enemy's body, Ling immediately sensed something was wrong, but she didn't panic.

Akaashi's "shadow clone" disappears.

"Hmph!" Ling snorted coldly.

"Shadow Clone" is different from "Water Clone". This is half of the chakra. As long as it does not cause any important strategic misdirection, it is not a loss to destroy the Shadow Clone!

But just then—

As Rin's "Shadow Clone" exploded, she immediately switched to a defensive stance underground, but—

Puff puff—

Two figures of red stone suddenly appeared to Rin's left front and right rear without warning, and then waved their Uchiha fans!

Bang! Crack! Bang!

One fan struck his chest, and another struck his lower back from opposite directions. Ling felt his thoracic and lumbar vertebrae being injured, and at the same time, he was thrown up by the force and lost consciousness.

At this moment, many Konoha ninjas in the audience couldn't help but stand up. Mirror clone? He just used the Mirror Clone Technique?

Aside from the mirror, no one else has mastered the mirror clone technique, yet someone has actually learned it?

"This kid is not bad either—no wonder I chose him." Tsunade remarked upon seeing this.

"Huh?" Jiraiya stared at Tsunade in shock—what is this girl saying? Didn't you and Orochimaru think that Akaishi had no talent?!

"Do you have any objections?" Tsunade clenched her fist and looked at him.

Jiraiya: ————

"No, Akaishi lived up to our expectations. It's all Orochimaru's fault for being blind!" Jiraiya said righteously.

The thick fog dissipated rapidly after Ling lost consciousness, and at the same time—

Thump, thump—

Akaishi immediately dispelled his clone and calmly emerged from underground, returning to his original position!

"Rin is eliminated and the Uchiha Akaishi genin successfully defends his title. The genin who wants to challenge him can now step onto the stage."

The viewers, having witnessed the incredible scene during the broadcast of the "Reverse Mirror Technique," were now buzzing with discussion, while the genin preparing in the rest area were completely dumbfounded.

Seeing the fog thinning, they were puzzled. It had only been a minute since the battle began, could there have been some changes in the situation?

Who knew that Ling had already knelt down!

and----

After the fog cleared, everyone saw that Akaishi was standing in the same spot with his arms crossed, just like at the beginning, while Rin had been carried away by Hatake and handed over to the medical team on site, and she seemed to be seriously injured.

"Hisashi—" Claw couldn't wait to know what had happened.

However, Hizashi just shook his head and glanced at Yakushi Nonou.

Among the genin present, only he vaguely saw what had happened, but he didn't reveal it.

Tsuru glanced at Yakushi Nono, then didn't ask any more questions.

For a moment, Iwagakure and Kirigakure hesitated and did not immediately send anyone in.

Meanwhile, Yakushi Nonou, not caring what the other genin thought of her, went straight onto the stage.

"Are you sick in the head?" Lan Wu couldn't help but blurt out.

Right now, Kirigakure and Iwagakure are still confused about the situation and dare not send anyone up on stage again. Why are you going up there to help outsiders investigate Red Stone's methods?
