• Rock Lee’s drunkenness transforms his usual “Steel Fist” style into an unpredictable, highly evasive form of taijutsu. His half-closed eyes and loose movements allow him to instinctively anticipate attacks and redirect opponents’ force.
• Shinji compares Lee’s drunken fighting state to “Ultra Instinct”—a condition in which conscious thought is suppressed and the body reacts purely through instinct and muscle memory.
• Neji attacks Lee, followed by Kimimaro and Sasuke. Despite being surrounded by three powerful fighters, Lee repeatedly avoids their attacks and uses their momentum against them.

• Shinji: Demonstrates strong analytical skills by studying Lee’s movements rather than rushing in blindly. His confidence grows as he recognizes the nature of Lee’s technique, but he also realizes that even Lee’s enhanced drunken state cannot match his own physical power.
• Sasuke: Suffers repeated setbacks. His initial defeat and later mistakes show that his confidence and eagerness to prove himself can cause him to expose openings.
