The Battle Between Female Shinobi
The first match became the fourth match, and the second match became the first match.
Konoha Genin Katsuhira Yoshida defeated Kakashi Nao, a master of the Hatake Clan, using his superior Genjutsu.
The atmosphere at the selection venue seemed to be reaching a climax.
The examiner then drew lots again, and the image on the screen eventually settled on a man and a woman.
"Second match! Nara Kakuru vs. Rin Nohara!"
"Go for it, Rin!" Although Obito didn't advance, he still appeared in the audience to cheer Rin on.
This match was quite exciting. Although Rin Nohara didn't have any particular strengths, she was agile, quick-witted, and fought very hard, which allowed her to suppress Nara Kakuru for a time.
However, when Nara Kakuru got serious, Rin Nohara had no chance. No matter who dealt with the Nara Clan who possessed secret techniques, they would not gain any advantage.
In the end Rin Nohara was defeated, but she did manage to show her strongest side.
"Not bad! This girl really gave it her all." The Third Hokage's eyes also showed a hint of satisfaction.
With the start of the second battle, the atmosphere in the venue became lively again, seemingly about to reach its peak.
Just then, the examiner announced the names of the remaining two contestants.
"Next up is the third match! Hinata Kurenai versus Violet Katori!"
"A little girl from the Hyuga Clan? That Main Family from the Rotation heavens?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was also quite looking forward to this match.
"Violet! Do your best! Win like Katsuhira!" Teammates Shuichi and Teacher Suzuki were also in the crowd, cheering for Violet.
There were also quite a few spectators from the Hyuga Clan, who cheered as they watched the Kurenai!
"Kurenai! It's all up to you this time! You'd better stall for time until Shiyu arrives!" Hizashi was also a little nervous in the audience.
Violet bowed deeply to Kurenai and said, "I'm sorry, I always looked at you with the same eyes I had for Hyuga- san, assuming you would be high and mighty because of your Kekkei Genkai and noble lineage. However, I was wrong. This time, let me see just how powerful the Hyuga Clan of Konoha really is!"
Hinata Kurenai bowed and said, "No need to be polite, I will do my best to defeat you! And please do your best too! This time I want to prove myself, I won't hold our team back."
Violet could sense a kind of obsession driving Hinata Kurenai forward.
"Begin!" The examiner finally announced the start of the competition.
The battle between the two women ignited the atmosphere, drawing the attention of countless viewers to the duel between the only two female participants in the competition.
"Whoosh!" Violet immediately started throwing shuriken, while Kurenai, holding Kunai, accurately deflected each shuriken.
Suddenly, the shuriken transformed into eyes and flew towards Kurenai.
"This is Genjutsu!? I didn't expect them to use Genjutsu right from the start? They really are Genjutsu- type ninjas!"
"Genjutsu - Dispel!" Kurenai instantly dispelled the Genjutsu.
Although Kurenai is not good at using Genjutsu, over the past three months, Hizashi has given Kurenai special training on how to dispel Genjutsu.
The Kurenai is now immune to most Genjutsu.
Having broken the Genjutsu, Violet had no choice but to discard her shuriken and Kunai again, attaching Explosive Tag to the Kunai.
"Byakugan!" Kurenai immediately activated her eyes, and at the same time, her entire body began to spin at super speed, like a spinning top. A strong wind and a blue-white protective shield formed around Kurenai.
"What is this!?" Violet was also taken aback. The shurikens were instantly deflected, and the Kunai with Explosive Tag exploded directly.
The Kurenai's spinning speed gradually slowed down, and seeing that Kurenai was completely unharmed, Violet also somewhat surprised.
"So this is the Hyuga Clan's Rotation? It's really powerful. However, I also have a powerful move I haven't used yet!" Violet Hand Seals again.
However, before the Violet could finish blooming, the Kurenai attacked once again.
"Eight Trigrams - Empty Palm!" A shockwave of air struck Violet's pressure points.
Violet miscalculated once again. She never expected that Hinata Kurenai would become so much stronger in just three months.
Because she misjudged her opponent, Violet took the hit head-on from the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm.
This Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm was like a remote acupoint strike; the shockwave it delivered accurately hit Violet's vital acupoints.
"Oh no! My chakra! It's blocked. Did that attack just now seal off part of my chakra?!" Violet was also taken aback.
"Has this guy gotten this strong?"
"I never expected the Hyuga Clan's young lady to have undergone such rigorous training. This is quite a surprise."
Both Shuichi Matsuyama and their teacher Suzuki were surprised.
I remember before the Chunin Ninja Exams, the girl in front of me was getting beaten up by them, but now she's become so difficult to deal with.
"She's already mastered pressure point techniques! The Hyuga Clan girls are really amazing. Could it be due to the influence of her teammate Shiyu?" Hiruzen joked from above.
"This girl named Violet doesn't seem to be giving up either. She looks like another stubborn girl." Utatane Koharu shook her head as well. She seemed to see the unwillingness to admit defeat in Violet's eyes.
Sure enough, Violet dragged her heavy body and slowly stood up.
The cheers, shouts, and encouragement from the audience were deafening; everyone was inspired by the spirit of Violet.
"I can't fall yet. At the very least, you have to take this hit from me."
"Don't extract any more chakra. I've already sealed some of your chakra, and doing so might have a negative impact on your body," Kurenai advised anxiously.
"I don't care about all that. If I can't even defeat you, how can I defeat you? What about Uchiha Shigure?" Violet said stubbornly.
"Shiyu. Kurenai was also stunned for a moment, she also thought of Shiyu."
"Yes, what right do I have to tell someone to give up their obsession? Aren't I the same?"
Kurenai also understood Violet's unwavering resolve.
"This isn't your average Genjutsu. If you can't hold on any longer, just surrender!" Violet, in excruciating pain, gathered her chakra, laboriously completed the Hand Seals, and shouted, "Ninja Hell Viewing Technique!"
Then, Kurenai saw the scene she feared most: Shiyu, covered in blood, lay in the Chunin Selection Hall, where corpses piled up like mountains—all of them her family and friends.
"Ah!" Kurenai's inner fear was magnified infinitely; she seemed to have forgotten about the Chunin Tournament at this moment.
