Chapter 345
The Akito already understood the general idea.
"Ying..."
You are my disciple.
You have inherited my will.
You are the extension of my arm.
You are my sharpest weapon.
"Go ahead and do it."
"Yes, Master!"
Ying, who was already about to condemn this scene, immediately began to denounce it. "Is this how you Konoha conducts assessments?!"
"!"
Ying's sudden voice drew everyone's attention.
This included the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Jonin from each of the ninja villages, and all the examinees present.
They all looked over at the same time.
It's impossible for me to play for Ying.
But...
The Akito will not stand idly by Genin are bullied or treated with special privileges.
"Does this mean that unrelated individuals can arbitrarily enter the fray and break the rules?"
Ying raised her voice and rebuked.
She meant...
The events surrounding Kakashi Hatake and Kurenai Yuhi's fates.
The chief examiner, Gekko Hayate, had stated before the competition that he would intervene if necessary.
But what about the actions of the others?
And they're all trying to stop Neji, not Hyuga Hinata?
Why Neji Hyuga repeatedly show restraint, persuade Hinata, and hold back, allowing Hinata to be eliminated?
This group of people didn't come out to stop it.
In the end, is it really necessary to blame Neji Hyuga deadly attack?
"You, the chief examiner, have already sensed the danger of the competition and are planning to stop it. But this Naruto Uzumaki Genin you not to interfere, and you actually listen?! If he told you to die, would you die too? Are you the chief examiner, or is he the chief examiner?"
Gekko Hayate: "!"
Ying then looked at Naruto Uzumaki: "And you too!"
Naruto Uzumaki: "Eh?!"
"Hyuga Hinata is clearly no match for Neji Hyuga, so why do you send her to her death time and time again? She's clearly outmatched and seriously injured, yet you keep pushing her into the fire? What are your intentions?"
Ying's rebuke and criticism.
The Konoha members present exchanged bewildered glances.
They didn't know... where this examinee from Amegakure got his courage.
Doesn't she know the unspoken social rule that "one shouldn't cause trouble for others"?
"Snort..."
Pakura smiled slightly, placed one hand on his waist, and raised his smooth chin, clearly agreeing with Ying's assessment.
"Ahem, Tsuchigumo Hotaru..."
Gekko Hayate's brows were almost furrowed together.
He was about to say something about when, but Ying continued.
"If you trample on and violate the rules you set yourself, will you also face the same unfair treatment when the competition begins?!"
"That won't happen..." Asuma stepped forward and said.
"Hmph, who can guarantee that?"
Ying gave a cold smile and looked at Asuma.
"Now that you've already entered the fray, it's really hard to believe your promises, especially since... Konoha's international reputation has never been very good."
Everyone: "!!!"
The previously awkward atmosphere instantly turned tense and tense.
Kurenai Yuhi, Kakashi, Gekko Hayate, Mitarashi Anko, and the others all glared at Ying with unfriendly expressions.
Ying, however, was fearless.
--Just like when the Akito first met her.
Even if you are alone, even if you are still young.
But we must also say no to those twisted individuals!!!
"What's wrong? Did I hit a nerve?"
Ying stepped forward and met the gazes of the crowd.
"Your Konoha betrayed your allies and are slowly but surely cutting the flesh off Sunagakure with a dull knife."
Maki: "..."
"Your Konoha has wantonly invaded other countries and trampled on the land of my Land of Rain!"
Konoha members. "..."
"Rules, covenants, credibility... aren't these things meant to be trampled on in your eyes?"
Ying raised her eyebrows slightly.
Despite her petite 13-year-old figure, she was fearless in the presence of everyone!
"Well said!" Pakura exclaimed in praise, directly supporting Ying.
"..."
Neji Hyuga looked at Ying curiously, blinked, and thought... this girl was very cool.
"Hey! You bastard!!"
At that moment, Naruto Uzumaki's loud voice rang out.
He glared angrily at Ying.
An expression that seemed to say, "You're very beautiful, but you can't say things like that," appeared on his face.
"Although I don't understand where your anger comes from, but... our village isn't a place where you can just spout nonsense!"
"Heh, I'm talking nonsense?"
Ying glared at Naruto Uzumaki, then shifted her gaze to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Naruto Uzumaki, your village's Hokage is right here. Ask him if Konoha invaded and trampled upon our Land of Rain during the several Shinobi World Wars!!"
"..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was immediately taken aback.
He raised his arm and pressed down the Hokage the Hokage's hat, clearly unable to answer the question.
"Don't make things difficult for us!" Mitarashi Anko stepped forward and reprimanded them.
"Making things difficult for you? You killed so many of our Land of Rain's civilians and ninjas, and you say I'm making things difficult for you?!"
Ying retorted sharply, and the anger and aura emanating from her caused the Dark Chakra Formula to multiply.
The Akito control the shadows of darkness.
Quietly observing Ying's body.
Because of this anger, Ying's power began to surge.
Feeling this astonishing momentum and irrefutable situation.
Naruto Uzumaki grew anxious. "Why is everyone so quiet?!"
"Because... they had nothing to say!"
As Ying finished speaking firmly, the electronic board beeped, signaling the start of the next competition.
"Tsuchigumo Hotaru vs. Kurotsuchi!"
To the unsuspecting public...
This is a way to extricate oneself from a difficult situation.
Too...
Amegakure's idol girl... vs... the granddaughter of the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki!!
"Let's see if you're as powerful as your words!"
Gekko Hayate shouted in a low voice, announcing the start of the match.
"Wow, that's amazing..."
Kurotsuchi stepped down and sized up Ying.
Looking at the girl whose beauty surpassed her own, she smiled and looked on with admiration.
"You... you are very courageous."
"Stop talking nonsense."
Ying waved her hand, interrupting Kurotsuchi.
"I have nothing to say to you invaders from Iwagakure!"
During the three world wars, it wasn't just Sunagakure Konoha of the Sand who invaded the Land of Rain.
Iwagakure place is also among them.
And now, this is a perfect opportunity for revenge!
Gekko Hayate: "Begin!"
After giving the order...
Kurotsuchi immediately Hand Seals: "Lava Release: Lava Release: Quicklime Congealing Technique!!"
Kurotsuchi's lips curled into a smile, and he instantly unleashed his most proficient technique.
He used his Kekkei Genkai to create lime, which he then used to attack the enemy, blinding them.
Next, he used Water Release to quickly turn the lime into quick-drying cement, trapping the enemy.
They could even suffocate their opponents.
This is Kurotsuchi's signature combo.
However...
The equally young Kurotsuchi had no idea that the person opposite her, who was the same age as her... was no ordinary person at all.
"..."
Ying silently raised her hand.
Boom!!
A white beam of light flew out from her hand.
A terrifying wave of Natural Energy, over 2 meters in diameter, instantly engulfed the Lava Release: Quicklime Congealing Technique.
Amidst the horrified gazes of everyone, including Kurotsuchi, it hurtled towards her...
