Showing Strength

Seeing Obito Uchiha charging towards him, Veigar was not panicked. Having already prepared for early graduation, his strength was more than enough to crush Obito Uchiha.

Approaching Veigar's side, Obito Uchiha threw a punch towards Veigar's face.

Veigar quickly turned his head and dodged, avoiding Obito Uchiha's fist while also extending his right hand to grab Obito Uchiha's right wrist.

Struggling a couple of times.

Obito Uchiha found that his right hand, grabbed by Veigar, was like being held tightly by pliers, completely unable to break free.

Immediately, Obito Uchiha gave up struggling with his right hand, knowing he couldn't break free from Veigar's grip.

So, Obito Uchiha raised his right foot and prepared to deliver a whip kick to Veigar's abdomen.

However, Obito Uchiha's movements were completely seen through by Veigar. Veigar, acting after Obito Uchiha, kicked him away first.

"Veigar is so strong..."

The crowd, seeing Veigar kick Obito Uchiha away in just a few moves, let out gasps of admiration.

Looking at Obito Uchiha, who was clutching his stomach but not seriously injured, Kaoru Iwabe knew Veigar had held back.

If this were a formal battle, Obito Uchiha would likely have been killed on the spot by now.

"Impulsive, arrogant."

In his heart, Kaoru Iwabe had already judged Obito Uchiha, marking him as unqualified.

"Damn you, Veigar."

Enduring the sharp pain in his abdomen, Obito Uchiha let out an angry roar before charging towards Veigar once more.

However, this time he had learned to be smarter.

Knowing his strength was inferior to Veigar's, Obito Uchiha used his feet as the starting point for his attacks. After all, among a person's limbs, the strength of the legs is greater than that of the arms.

Even so, Veigar did not dodge. Instead, he moved forward to meet the charging Obito Uchiha.

Exchanging blows, Veigar, who was not using his full strength, grappled with Obito Uchiha.

If one were to say Veigar was toying with or humiliating Obito Uchiha, that would be wrong.

Veigar was demonstrating, showing Kaoru Iwabe his exceptional taijutsu strength. After all, he still needed Kaoru Iwabe's consent for his early graduation.

Although Veigar could directly approach Hiruzen Sarutobi, having Kaoru Iwabe submit the application for him was the most suitable approach.

Kaoru Iwabe, watching from the side, also noticed the clear intention emanating from Veigar. Every attack from Obito Uchiha was easily blocked by Veigar, and Veigar only made his move after Obito Uchiha had already attacked.

With Veigar's current taijutsu level, he could defeat Obito Uchiha without wasting too much time.

At the same time, Kaoru Iwabe, who was watching the match, also noticed Obito Uchiha's shining points. Although the person was a bit arrogant and impulsive, Teacher Kaoru indeed possessed no ordinary strength in taijutsu.

With a good exchange with Obito Uchiha, Veigar had also showcased his taijutsu quite thoroughly. At the same time, Veigar discovered that the taijutsu used by Obito Uchiha was different from what was taught in the Ninja Academy.

It had more exquisite details.

As for where Obito Uchiha learned it, it was self-evident. He was backed by the prestigious Uchiha clan of Konoha.

After the taijutsu demonstration was complete, Veigar forced Obito Uchiha back two steps with a punch, while secretly forming a hand seal.

"Tiger?"

Veigar's hand seal fooled all the classmates, but it couldn't fool Kaoru Iwabe.

However, what puzzled Kaoru Iwabe was that the hand seal Veigar formed was not complete, but a single seal.

The next second, Kaoru Iwabe understood everything.

Because Obito Uchiha's fist suddenly struck Veigar's body, but Veigar disappeared with a "bang."

"A Clone Technique with simplified hand seals, what terrifying talent."

Kaoru Iwabe stared intently at Veigar, who was now standing behind Obito Uchiha.

At the same time, Kaoru Iwabe wondered what he himself was doing at the age of seven, the same age as Veigar.

Back then, let alone simplifying hand seals for ninjutsu, his success rate for using the Clone Technique was only fifty-fifty.

At this moment, Veigar was unaware of Kaoru Iwabe's thoughts, but he knew that by displaying his ability to simplify the hand seals for the Clone Technique, he would definitely attract Kaoru Iwabe's attention.

This was precisely Veigar's goal.

The reason Veigar could now simplify hand seals had little to do with his talent. It was because after successfully cultivating the Body Strengthening Technique, his body, reinforced by Chakra, had become more sensitive and adept at controlling and using Chakra.

This was the reason he could simplify hand seals.

Obito Uchiha, who had just seen himself land a punch on Veigar, hadn't even had time to feel joy before realizing he had only hit a clone.

Then, Obito Uchiha immediately turned his head, found Veigar standing behind him, and swung another punch.

However, this was still a clone left by Veigar.

"Obito, I'm here."

Veigar, who had been hiding his true body in the crowd, quickly returned to the edge of the training ground, and he used the Transformation Technique to disguise himself as Obito Uchiha.

Seeing Veigar transformed into his likeness, Obito Uchiha instantly became enraged and questioned Veigar, "Veigar, you scoundrel, why did you turn into me?"

But Veigar's reply made Obito Uchiha want to spit blood. Veigar, perfectly mimicking Obito Uchiha's tone and way of speaking, replied, "I am the great Obito, and I should be asking who you are!"

Everyone watching Veigar speak nonsense with his eyes wide open burst into laughter.

But they had to admit, when Veigar transformed into Obito Uchiha, he was identical. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, they would have doubted if the Obito Uchiha spitting blood in anger right now was real.

"You..."

"Hmph, I'll show you how powerful I am."

As he spoke, Obito Uchiha was rapidly forming Hand Seals.

"Snake-Monkey-Hare-Horse-Tiger."

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique."

Seeing Obito Uchiha rapidly forming Hand Seals, Veigar was surprised but didn't panic. He also began forming Hand Seals.

"Monkey-Ox-Tiger."

What Veigar was using was the Body Replacement Technique from the Three Basic Ninjutsu Techniques. However, the original five Hand Seals for the Body Replacement Technique had been simplified by Veigar; he only needed to form three Hand Seals to use it.
