This is a Water Style I Really Like

Seisui and Obito Uchiha stood facing each other.

The atmosphere on the scene grew increasingly tense, and the observing Ninja Academy students all held their breath in unison.

Obito Uchiha was no longer the classmate who sometimes played the fool and acted out; having awakened his Double Tomoe Sharingan, he had already pulled far ahead of most of the students present, creating a pitiful barrier between them.

Especially after his recent burst of ferocity, in the eyes of many Ninja Academy students, he now carried a presence akin to a future Chunin squad leader—no longer someone they could casually comment on.

Obito Uchiha curled his lips, savoring the eerie calm, as the Double Tomoe Sharingan in his eyes slowly rotated. He spread his hands:

"Seisui Uchiha, before these eyes of mine, your attacks are worthless... An Uchiha without the Sharingan cannot compare to me."

Seisui narrowed his eyes, ignoring him, and instead asked Tobirama Senju within him in confusion: "Does opening the eyes really have such a big impact on personality?"

"This brat awakened his eyes through anger and jealousy toward you, and the stimulation of those emotions is magnified many times over by the power of his Dojutsu after awakening."

Tobirama Senju stared at Obito Uchiha and said in a deep voice: "A person whose heart is full of jealousy and anger will naturally undergo a drastic change in personality, leaning toward extremes, and their words will naturally differ greatly from before."

Seisui nodded in understanding: "Thank you, Dora-Tobirama..."

Tobirama Senju snorted. Though he didn't understand the meaning of the word "Dora," he roughly grasped it as a compliment, so he didn't bother arguing with Seisui.

Jealousy and anger—these were the emotions most easily amplified...

Seisui looked at Obito, who was provocatively not assuming a combat stance, and spread his hands as well, speaking in a clear and forceful voice: "Obito, why are you angry?"

"My spar with Rin followed the rules between ninjas. Even though I used Genjutsu to control her, Rin never thought of giving up; she was still trying to turn defeat into victory when I let my guard down."

"If you think I overstepped by helping her cushion her fall when she stumbled during a run and treating her wounds..."

"Then your attempt to interfere without respecting her fight is, in my eyes, ignoring her efforts—a terrible act that truly requires an apology to her."

"You're not Rin's boyfriend. Your abnormal possessiveness has already clouded your eyes."

"Even though I don't have the Sharingan, I still want to remind you... Obito, don't let emotions and power blind you. A ninja's clear and rational heart is the most precious asset."

Seisui's words of encouragement made everyone present nod in agreement.

Iruka Umino looked at Seisui with approving eyes. He had already decided that, even if it meant bending the rules a little, he wouldn't let this child fall into danger in the upcoming fight.

In his view, these words were the very symbol of the Will of Fire!

And at that moment.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, in the Hokage's office, was also staring at the crystal ball on his desk with a curious gaze, murmuring softly: "Seisui Uchiha... he's a special Uchiha, seems like a good kid..."

"Let's observe him a bit more. Perhaps he could serve as a bridge for the tense relationship between the Uchiha Clan and the village..."

But Hiruzen Sarutobi's teacher rolled his eyes quite bluntly, showing disdain for those words.

If an innocent, naive Ninja Academy student had said that, Tobirama Senju might have marveled at how well the Will of Fire had spread.

But coming from Seisui's mouth... he always felt something was off.

He even felt a urge to forcefully argue against that speech, so full of the Will of Fire.

Obito Uchiha lost his composure. He secretly swept his gaze across the audience below, only to see everyone's approving expressions, which only made his inner rage boil hotter.

Seisui's words grated on his ears. In summary, they could be boiled down to one sentence: "I, Seisui, didn't do anything to Rin Nohara, and moreover, you're not even qualified to tell me what I can or can't do to Rin."

Why? What right did you, Seisui Uchiha, have to say that!

I've known Rin for over two years—she really cares about me!

You hypocritical bastard, was it wrong for me to tell Rin to stay away from you!

Why is everyone nodding at your words!

And you dare to accuse me!

After a round of reasoning.

The lingering anger in Obito Uchiha's mind was fully ignited. His eyes blazed with red light, and he formed hand seals at a speed he had never achieved before, taking a deep breath with all his might:

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

A massive fireball erupted from his mouth. The scorching heat made it hard to breathe, and the blazing Hokaru dyed the entire training ground orange-red!

Iruka Umino and Kakashi, the two examiners responsible for match safety, both had their pupils contract sharply.

This was no technique a Ninja Academy student should be able to unleash!

Even among Chunin, the power of the Great Fireball Obito Uchiha spat out was top-tier.

But Iruka Umino was an ordinary Chunin, and Kakashi Hatake at this time was also a ninja who primarily used swordsmanship. More importantly, with the Sharingan's boost, Obito Uchiha's hand-seal speed had exceeded their expectations.

So that meant Seisui would have to face this Great Fireball alone!

Just as Iruka Umino inwardly regretted, thinking he wouldn't make it in time and Seisui would be seriously injured...

A water tornado over ten meters tall instantly devoured the fireball that had been so arrogantly blazing moments ago, and with unstoppable force, it engulfed Obito Uchiha entirely!

"Water Style: Water Shockwave—this is a technique I really like, a water-style jutsu developed by the Second Hokage..." Seisui smiled as he met the gaze of Obito, struggling in the raging current, and slowly closed his palms.

The water tornado then shifted form, contracting into a dense sphere, trapping Obito Uchiha inside like a Water Prison!

Within the water prison, dense currents formed chains, pulling Obito Uchiha's limbs apart from different directions, leaving his body spread in a "big" shape.

Obito Uchiha's eyes were filled with disbelief. He struggled violently, bubbles gurgling from his mouth, but it was all in vain.

The combination of Water Prison and Water Lock was not something he could resist after already being caught.

In such a humiliating posture, Obito Uchiha caught a glimpse of Rin Nohara in the corner of his eye as he struggled—she seemed to be standing not far from him.

How could he let Rin see him in such an ugly state!

Obito Uchiha struggled even harder...

But his efforts were futile; the Water Prison still stood quietly, and his limbs grew weaker as the oxygen in his body depleted...

Seisui slowly walked up to him, smiled, and met his gaze: "Not bad, Obito."
