"Morning Peacock."
At the start of the battle, Might Guy charged toward Asuma Sarutobi at incredible speed and launched a flying kick.
Asuma Sarutobi was not intimidated in the slightest. He raised both arms, intending to block Might Guy's attack.
However, he had clearly underestimated Might Guy's strength.
Unable to block the attack at all, Asuma Sarutobi was immediately forced back three steps, and both his arms began to ache faintly.
"Konoha Whirlwind."
Having seized the initiative, Might Guy pressed his advantage without mercy. He charged straight in and unleashed Whirlwind Leg at Asuma Sarutobi's skull.
He was ready to give him a nasty blow.
Having just suffered a hidden loss, Asuma Sarutobi naturally had no intention of clashing head-on with Might Guy again. He ducked to evade the attack and immediately began forming Hand Seals.
Seeing Asuma Sarutobi's movements from the corner of his eye, Might Guy twisted around in midair and kicked at the half-crouching Asuma Sarutobi again.
However, Might Guy's attack failed to connect this time, because Asuma Sarutobi had already fled the spot, leaving behind only a clone.
"Where is he?"
After landing and destroying Asuma Sarutobi's clone, Might Guy immediately began searching for his whereabouts.
"Above you!"
Suddenly, Might Guy felt the sunlight overhead being blocked. He immediately looked up and saw Asuma Sarutobi leaping down at him.
If Asuma Sarutobi had known even one Five Element Ninjutsu at that moment, then even the weakest technique would have secured Might Guy's defeat.
However, despite being the son of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Asuma Sarutobi had yet to learn a single Five Element Ninjutsu, so he could only launch a close-range attack against Might Guy.
At the same time, Might Guy seemed to have a screw loose. Any normal person would know that Asuma Sarutobi, plunging from the sky to launch an attack, clearly held the advantage. Most people would choose to dodge first, evade Asuma Sarutobi's attack, and then counterattack.
But Might Guy refused to follow the usual approach and charged straight into danger.
Ahem!
I mean, he charged straight ahead despite the danger!
Gathering all his strength, Might Guy pushed off with both legs and shot into the sky.
"Boom!"
"This is the power of youth, ah..."
After a brief stalemate, Might Guy, who had charged into danger, let out an angry roar in midair. At the same time, he stimulated his body's potential, inexplicably summoning a surge of strength that made him even more powerful.
"Bang! Bang!"
Asuma Sarutobi and Might Guy both crashed to the ground, temporarily losing their basic ability to fight at the same time.
Seeing this, Kaoru Iwabe immediately announced, "Might Guy versus Asuma Sarutobi, a draw."
"Pass."
After the result was announced, Asuma Sarutobi struggled to his feet. His arms and right calf still ached faintly, and he gritted his teeth as he snarled at Might Guy, who was still lying on the ground. "Guy, are you trying to kill me?"
Normally, Asuma Sarutobi and Might Guy had a pretty good relationship. One was rebellious, and the other was an idiot. No one knew how the two of them had ended up becoming friends.
In any case, they were constantly stirring things up.
Asuma Sarutobi's roar did not mean that he was truly angry. He had merely been shocked by Might Guy, who usually acted like an idiot.
Might Guy, still lying on the ground, had no way to respond to Asuma Sarutobi. He had not passed out after stimulating his body's potential only because he had nerves as thick as cables and a fairly strong physique.
Even so, the pain throughout Might Guy's body was worse than Asuma Sarutobi's. He temporarily could not speak, so he simply flashed his large row of white teeth, treating it as his response to Asuma Sarutobi.
I, Might Guy, never speak softly.
Seeing Might Guy still lying on the ground, Kaoru Iwabe walked over. After examining him, he determined that Might Guy had suffered muscle strains and complete exhaustion.
Kaoru Iwabe immediately called over the medical ninja from the Ninja Academy to treat Might Guy.
At that moment, the students of Class One were all discussing the injured Might Guy.
"I never expected Guy's taijutsu to be this strong. I would've lost to Asuma long ago."
"If he hadn't fought Asuma today, we never would've known he had become this strong."
"Tch, he's just a useless guy who knows taijutsu."
Amid the discussions, some were shocked, some disdainful, while others, like Veigar, had expected it all along.
At that moment, Might Guy, who had been carried away, became the focus of everyone's attention.
"Clap, clap."
While the class was still discussing Might Guy and Asuma Sarutobi's battle, Kaoru Iwabe clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention to him.
"Next is today's final match. Vega Koshima versus Obito Uchiha."
After Might Guy was taken away, Kaoru Iwabe did not waste any time. He stepped into the arena and called Veigar and Obito Uchiha forward.
In the arena.
Obito Uchiha looked at Veigar with great excitement, as though he had already secured victory. He said to Veigar, "Veigar, I'll show you my strength in a moment. I'll show you just how amazing I am."
"I've already won this match."
Veigar merely replied with a calm smile. "Mm, good luck!"
Veigar remained calm in the arena, but the students outside could not stand Obito Uchiha's arrogance. They angrily mocked him one after another.
"Ha, Obito, you Dead Last, you're way too arrogant."
"Dead Last actually had the nerve to step into the arena. If it were me, I'd just admit defeat."
"Who gave this guy the courage to say he could defeat Veigar?"
"Are you looking to die? What an idiot, Obito!"
A Dead Last actually dared to proclaim that he was certain to win. It was enough to make them laugh in anger.
By comparison, they believed they were far stronger than Obito Uchiha, yet even they did not dare claim that they could defeat Veigar.
What gave Obito Uchiha the right to say such a thing? Wasn't he rubbing it in their faces that they did not dare fight Veigar?
Was he mocking them for lacking courage?
Thus, they vented all their anger at Obito Uchiha.
"Bastard! How dare you look down on me!"
Seeing that Veigar remained completely unmoved, combined with the jeers all around him, Obito Uchiha was burning with humiliation and rage.
"Both sides, form the Opposing Seal."
Although Obito Uchiha was humiliated and enraged, he was still very obedient when it came to the school's rules.
Just like Veigar, Obito Uchiha formed an Opposing Seal with perfect precision after Kaoru Iwabe finished speaking.
"Now, begin!"
The instant Kaoru Iwabe announced the start of the battle, Obito Uchiha, who had long since prepared himself, immediately attacked first. He thought viciously, I'll defeat Veigar right now and show you all my true strength.
