Sparring with Tsunade

"I've been going too easy on him. I need to find a chance to teach Nawaki a lesson." Hyuga Matsuba was furious and wanted to find a way to beat Nawaki up.

Nawaki, practicing alone at home, suddenly trembled all over, felt a chill, and inexplicably began to feel fear and dread.

"Don't interrupt. I'm not joking. I asked you out because I want to discuss the contents of the notebook you gave me," Tsunade said softly, glancing at the two little girls beside her.

"Let's go play over there. You two talk first!" Mikoto grabbed Kushina and was about to leave.

"No need for such trouble," Hyuga Matsuba waved his hand. Mikoto knew about those things, and Kushina wasn't an outsider.

Tsunade didn't speak and nodded.

"Are you finding the operational techniques difficult to understand?" Hyuga Matsuba asked.

"Yes, I've grasped most of it, but Kami-e and Observation Haki seem a bit difficult for me," Tsunade frowned.

She had deciphered almost everything in that notebook. Although she couldn't use it quickly yet, she understood the basic methods of use.

There was a part that Tsunade felt she didn't need to learn. However, she couldn't figure out how to use Observation Haki and Kami-e, which were not ordinary Ninjutsu.

"You don't need to learn both. You can choose one. If you want to quickly grasp Observation Haki, then you can choose to learn things that train your reaction speed," Hyuga Matsuba offered his opinion.

"Let's have a match!"

Tsunade was taken aback. "Are you kidding me?"

Hyuga Matsuba raised an eyebrow. "Sister, I'm not kidding. If I don't hold back, you definitely won't be able to beat me."

"Matsuba, confidence is good, but arrogance is another matter."

Hyuga Matsuba's words made Tsunade uncomfortable. This kid really didn't take her seriously.

"Oh? Let's let the facts speak for themselves. Laser!" Hyuga Matsuba shouted and activated his Ninjutsu.

Tsunade didn't react in time. The beam of light Hyuga Matsuba shot out was only a hair's breadth away from her, yet she didn't dodge it. In other words, if the opponent had been standing opposite her, she would have already lost.

Even though it was unexpected, even if she had been prepared, it would have been difficult to dodge that attack.

"What was that you just used? How could you use it without hand seals?" Tsunade asked incredulously.

"This isn't Ninjutsu. To put it simply, it's just using skills from another world here," Hyuga Matsuba began to explain.

"Sister, you can't underestimate your opponent on the battlefield."

"I can't believe I lost to you. It's upsetting," Tsunade pouted.

"Now let's have a proper match! Show me your full strength!" Tsunade unleashed all her power, and the surrounding air seemed to crackle. In the blink of an eye, Tsunade had already teleported beside Matsuba.

She then began to use her taijutsu attacks, but Tsunade still held back. She didn't want Hyuga Matsuba to get hurt.

Hyuga Matsuba smiled slightly and shifted his body, dodging Tsunade's punch.

"Sister still doesn't seem to be fighting seriously. Sister, you need to be careful, I fight seriously too."

"I think you little brat's wings have gotten strong. Today, I'll show you my strength." Tsunade was a little angry.

"Hmph! Monster Strength Punch!"

Tsunade was now fighting seriously, using her Monster Strength Punch, intending to end the fight quickly.

Even though it looked powerful, Hyuga Matsuba moved like a feather, quickly dodging Tsunade's punches and kicks, none of which landed on him.

"Did you use Kami-e?" Tsunade was disappointed and sad that she couldn't hit Hyuga Matsuba at all.

In this situation, unless your attack had a very large range or your attacks were extremely fast, it would be impossible to hit the opponent.

"Sister, it's my turn now! Get ready! Tempest Kick!" Hyuga Matsuba kicked the air rapidly, turning it into an air blade that moved towards Tsunade at light speed.

"Tch, this kind of trick is child's play to me."

"Oh?" Hyuga Matsuba raised an eyebrow.

Suddenly, the large air blade shattered into small pieces, and the attack range suddenly expanded, surrounding Tsunade. Tsunade had nowhere to run. With such dense attacks, she was trapped.

Tsunade trembled all over and immediately activated her internal energy to dodge the surrounding attacks.

After a long time and a lot of effort, she finally managed to dodge them. But just as she dealt with one wave, another began. In the blink of an eye, the air was filled with blades again. Tsunade felt a sense of despair.

She now dodged with all her might, and if she couldn't dodge, she would attack back and shatter them.

Kushina, one of the spectators below, was so shocked her jaw almost dropped. She had never seen such a grand display.

"I didn't expect this little brat to be so powerful," Kushina exclaimed. In any place, people always respected the strong. Now, Kushina was filled with admiration for Hyuga Matsuba.

"Such moves are futile against me, they only consume your stamina and do nothing else," Tsunade successfully dodged the last small blade.

Tsunade had learned this technique long ago and knew how much stamina it consumed. If it were used continuously, the stamina drain would be considerable. It seemed this little brat had high capabilities.

However, as the one being attacked, she could also feel that the attack was gradually weakening.

"Do you know that the Hyuga Matsuba you were fighting just now was only a Shadow Clone of mine?" Hyuga Matsuba spoke slowly.

The Hyuga Matsuba in front of Tsunade suddenly exploded and disappeared. It turned out to be just a Shadow Clone.

Tsunade was still in shock and unprepared when Hyuga Matsuba immediately attacked. With a bang, Tsunade was accurately hit.

"Crack." With another puff of smoke, Tsunade disappeared and turned into a stone. Hit by Hyuga Matsuba's punch, it began to shatter into small pebbles.

"You really don't show any mercy. Are you trying to kill me?" Tsunade looked back nervously, already covered in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, she had already sensed some danger earlier and casually produced a stone to impersonate herself. Otherwise, she might have lost her life by now.

Hyuga Matsuba's lips curved upwards. He said nothing, as he had already sensed it was merely a substitute. If it had been the real person, he would have definitely held back at the last second. Techniques were completely under his control; he could stop or release them at will.

"In that case, didn't you just learn Observation Haki then?"

Only after Hyuga Matsuba's gentle reminder did Tsunade realize that she could now sense subtle changes in her surroundings, and with exceptional acuity.

Tsunade dared to say that in the vicinity, she could now perceive even the slightest alteration.
