Nawaki's Battle

In the dense forests of Konoha, in a place surrounded by a large number of animals, Nawaki, covered in wounds, looked at his opponent with fighting spirit. Even though the enemy was surrounded by many animals and was being outputted frantically, this was still a powerful opponent worth fighting! Tianlai Novel Network

"Respected opponent!"

Nawaki's voice was low, his fighting spirit high:

"To be able to face me without being suppressed by my aura and fight me for so long, you are indeed a formidable opponent!"

"Stop the damn nonsense!"

The Sand Ninja, completely unharmed but being outputted frantically by the animals, roared in anger:

"If you have the guts, get rid of these bothersome things. Without them, I would have killed you countless times already!"

"You scoundrel! How can a ninja say such things!"

Hearing the Sand Ninja's frantic words, Nawaki's anger flared up, and he reprimanded him:

"Although my teammate is a scoundrel and has committed such a despicable act, severely affecting the fair fight between you and me, making me ashamed!

However, as a ninja, even when facing mortal danger, one must fight bravely, find a way to win in adversity, and achieve victory. This is the mentality every ninja should possess. Are you treating being a ninja as child's play? Do you, a person like this, still have pride as a ninja?"

"Pride in your sister, do you even know what kind of person you are?

Slow hand seal speed, poor attacking awareness, insufficient damage!

After fighting me for so long, you are covered in wounds, and I haven't sustained any injuries. Don't you wonder why?

Without these damned animals, I would have killed you long ago!"

The Sand Ninja yelled in anger, his heart becoming increasingly anxious. From the moment his team started the pursuit, the Sand Ninja instinctively felt something was wrong. Regardless of anything else, the mere fact that they could release a potion that could obstruct such a wide area of animals meant that this pursued squad was not simple!

But his Chunin captain had ordered them to continue the pursuit out of anger, and he had to obey. Otherwise, even if he were the only survivor, if he were discovered, the punishment for deserting on the battlefield would be unbearable!

And when the battle began, apart from his opponent being a fool with appalling combat awareness, the other two Konoha ninja quickly eliminated his companions in a very short time. This further amplified his unease!

Although he thought it was a joke for the three Genin in this team to face the Chunin in his team, so much time had passed, and the captain had not come to support them. This in itself was the biggest problem!

If that were all, ever since he was selected for the Sand Ninja assault team, began destroying Konoha's supplies, and hunting Konoha ninja, he had already prepared himself for the possibility of death at any moment.

However, dying gloriously was one thing, and dying in frustration was another. His combat awareness was terrible, but this guy was surprisingly resilient. Even though he had already beaten the opponent into a sorry state, and the blood loss had reached the limit for an average ninja, the opponent was like an unkillable cockroach, dragging him along energetically. What made it even more unbearable was the various maddening words coming from the opponent's mouth!

Things like how he was evil and could still turn back to Konoha if he knew his mistakes; how even though he was a rookie, if he became his subordinate, he would definitely become a generation's Ninja God; how even though he was trash, under the opponent's guidance, he would definitely become someone who would change the ninja world!

Such maddening remarks were driving the Sand Ninja crazy. And through the prolonged exchange, this Sand Ninja had already come to a clear realization – the opponent was not deliberately humiliating him, he was genuinely mentally challenged!

However, this kind of unintentional humiliation made the Sand Ninja even more frantic!

"Sand Ninja opposite, you..."

"Shut the hell up, Shuriken—Five Meteorites!"

Hearing Nawaki speak again, the Sand Ninja, who could no longer stand it, unleashed another attack. Five shuriken shot out at extreme speed, like meteors falling from the sky, heading for Nawaki's vital points!

Like a nimble cat dodging, like a monkey leaping through the forest, like an aurora, like lightning!

After a series of complex dodges, Nawaki was successfully pierced by all five shuriken without a single miss!

"What a powerful opponent! Even with my skills, I couldn't dodge it. It seems that even though I had a high evaluation of you, I actually underestimated you. Water Release, Water Bullet Barrage!"

Zhou Duan: "..."

Water Gate: "..."

Hundred Palms: "..."

Watching Nawaki get hit perfectly by the most basic ninja tool, and because of Nawaki's infuriating jutsu casting time, the opponent had ample time to prepare and easily dodge, Zhou Duan couldn't help but sigh to the heavens!

Facts proved that Zhou Duan's decision to refuse the Third Hokage's request to take Senju Nawaki into his team was very clear. And improving Nawaki during the transport of supplies was an even more brilliant decision!

If Nawaki hadn't already improved his hand seal speed to two seals per second and his movement techniques had also significantly improved, Zhou Duan was certain that even with the animals' suicidal obstruction, Nawaki would have been defeated by his opponent before he, Water Gate, and Hundred Palms arrived!

"Zhou Duan, Water Gate, am I seeing this correctly!"

Looking at the battle between Nawaki and his opponent, which was like a negative example, Hundred Palms couldn't hold back:

"Nawaki's combat awareness is too terrible, isn't it? With the animals causing trouble, he's still struggling this much?

And his wounds, he's not going to tell me that after fighting for so long, all his attacks missed, and all of the opponent's attacks hit him, right? This battle is too much of an eyesore!"

Standing beside Hundred Palms, Water Gate reached the same conclusion as Zhou Duan:

"Hundred Palms, this is all thanks to Zhou Duan's training plan and your sparring with Nawaki. Without these improvements to Nawaki's combat power, judging by the strength of the Sand Ninja opposite, even with Nawaki's strong physical condition, he might have been killed by the opponent before we arrived. And even though Nawaki's combat power has improved, with the current situation on the field..."

"Sigh!"

"Sigh!"

"Sigh!"

The three people watching from a distance simultaneously sighed, speaking in unison:

"It's not optimistic!"

"Stop the damn nonsense!"

Nawaki, who was in the middle of the fight, had already noticed the arrival of Zhou Duan and the other two. Although the battle was difficult, Nawaki was too embarrassed to ask Zhou Duan and the other two for help. But he didn't expect that the three who arrived not only had no intention of helping but were also mocking him from the sidelines. Nawaki's anger immediately flared up:

"Don't stand there and make sarcastic remarks, if you're so capable, you do it!"

"Fine!"

Hundred Palms, who had already been stimulated to the point of no return by Nawaki's fighting style, was the first to be unable to stand it. With a swift movement, he closed in on the Sand Ninja within two breaths. With a low shout, Eight Trigrams Sixteen Palms struck the Sand Ninja without missing a single palm. And finally, he used a kunai to cut the throat of the Sand Ninja, who was already unable to resist, thus ending him!

Nawaki stood frozen in place, looking at the Sand Ninja he had fought for so long, who was defeated by Hundred Palms in just a few breaths. Even Nawaki, who was usually shameless, felt a slight sting in his cheeks!
