The Hot-Blooded Idiot's Attack!

"Konoha Whirlwind!"

As the impassioned shout rang out for the second time, a dull thud of flesh striking flesh echoed across the clearing before the cabin for the fourth time.

Tch! Amid the dull impact, Chiba clenched his teeth slightly. His raised arm, held up to block, pressed his right cheek out of shape, puffing up half his mouth. His head tilted to the left, and even his right foot lifted slightly from the ground as his body leaned sideways.

Might Duy is already dead?

No! I can't put it that way. Might Duy didn't teach Guy the Eight Gates right before he died; he started teaching him some time before that. It's not impossible for Guy to already know the Eight Gates!

That force... it should be the force of opening the Second Gate and releasing one hundred percent of his body's power. Completely different from Kakashi's punches, where he still held back!

This guy is serious! That hot-blooded idiot is still making trouble even though it's already over! Chiba frowned slightly. By now, his entire body had tilted, and his posture was completely ruined.

Hm? Just then, Chiba's eyes shifted toward the lower left, and his expression changed slightly.

At that moment, Asuma was crouched low, throwing a rising hook at Chiba's left cheek! Asuma... too? Seeing the look in Asuma's eyes at the edge of his vision, certain that this strike would land, Chiba narrowed his eyes. His left foot instinctively stomped down, and he twisted his body with the momentum.

What?! In the next instant, Asuma's eyes flew wide open. His pupils were filled with disbelief as he watched his fist slowly slide past the tip of Chiba's nose without touching him in the slightest! *His movements were already completely distorted, and he could still dodge
