King of Bears
"Yes, thank you for reminding Lord Jiraiya!"
Having learned from the experience of the Hyuga Clan ninjas, Uchiha Yue naturally abandoned the idea of confronting them. After all, what was most important to Uchiha Yue was completing the Anbu selection exam. Therefore, when Jiraiya disappeared Hyuga Clan Uchiha Yue's sight, he immediately stepped into the territory of the Uchiha Yue Doomsday Forest to prepare for the first round of the Anbu selection exam.
"Doomsday Forest, it's been a long time!"
Upon entering the Doomsday Forest, Uchiha Yue suddenly recalled the scenes from the Chunin Ninja Exams with Hatake Kakashi and Sarutobi Danzō. However, with the Anbu selection exam in hand, Uchiha Yue didn't have much time for reminiscing. He had three hours to hunt down three giant beasts from the Doomsday Forest, and he needed to quickly find their tracks.
However, finding traces of the giant beasts in the Doomsday Forest is no easy task. Those beasts, entrenched in the Doomsday Forest, are constantly on guard against Konoha ninjas entering and slaughtering them. Therefore, even if Uchiha Yue were to use his Purple Eye to detect the giant beasts' tracks, it would still take considerable time to locate his intended prey.
And so, Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to observe for a full ten minutes, and his first target finally appeared.
It was a giant black bear that lived in a cave, and had just finished hunting its prey and was about to have a good meal.
However, the giant black bear never expected that just as it was preparing for its meal, Uchiha Yue had already locked onto it as its target. Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Yue took small, Basic Shatter Step to approach the giant black bear. But the giant black bear was extremely alert; just as Uchiha Yue concealed himself within a hundred meters of it, the giant black bear sensed Uchiha Yue's presence!
"Aww!"
A deafening roar made Uchiha Yue's eardrums ache, and the Uchiha Yue further stimulated him, distracting him.
Then, the giant black bear in front of Uchiha Yue abandoned its meal and slowly stood up in front of him. It was precisely because the giant black bear stood up that Uchiha Yue felt its imposing presence. Before, when the giant black bear was lying down, Uchiha Yue felt nothing to fear. But now that the giant black bear was standing, Uchiha Yue felt completely enveloped in its shadow!
"That's not a black bear!"
"It's basically the Bear King, okay!"
Feeling the imposing presence of the giant black bear before him, Uchiha Yue silently vowed to kill the bear that resembled a bear king.
However, when Uchiha Yue was about to kill the giant black bear, he didn't even have his Fubuki Tachi Uchiha Yue, in his hand. Moreover, judging from Uchiha Yue's confident appearance, he seemed to be preparing to fight the giant black bear hand-to-hand with him, using his own Falling Moon Style Taijutsu to kill the giant black bear that seemed to be the bear king!
"Whoosh..."
The next second, Uchiha Yue used Basic Shatter Step to quickly get close to the giant black bear.
Because Uchiha Yue had been practicing the Basic Shatter Steps, his progress during this period was particularly rapid, and he had already reached the second stage of the Basic Shatter Step. Of course, Uchiha Yue also had to thank Mo Chenfeng for the cultivation insights he left behind; otherwise, no matter how hard he practiced, he would not have been able to raise his Basic Shatter Step steps to the second stage in such a short time.
Using Basic Shatter Step, Uchiha Yue closed the distance to the giant black bear. His agility was far beyond what the bear could have imagined. The bear tried to attack, but every time it raised its paw, Uchiha Yue would disappear from its sight. In this way, Uchiha Yue was completely toying with the giant black bear using his Basic Shatter Step, overwhelming it with his speed advantage!
Moreover, while Uchiha Yue dodging the giant black bear's attacks, he clenched his fists tightly!
"Boom..."
Suddenly, Uchiha Yue's fist landed on the giant black bear in front of him, sending the hundred-meter-tall creature staggering back several steps. Undoubtedly, Uchiha Yue's punch had utilized Tsunade's Monster Strength. Therefore, even in a contest of strength against the giant black bear, Uchiha Yue held a certain advantage. It's important to know that Tsunade's Monster Strength was terrifying; Uchiha Yue, now wielding it, could already contend with the Tsunade black bear in terms of raw power!
However, the giant black bear, which was knocked back a few steps, did not suffer any serious injuries.
Even after being knocked back a few steps, the giant black bear became even more enraged, raising its palm towards Uchiha Yue in front of it.
Unfortunately, the giant black bear was simply too slow. Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to observe the bear's attack patterns and was able to easily dodge its attacks with Basic Shatter Step. Furthermore, whenever the giant black bear failed to attack Uchiha Yue would use his Monster Strength to deliver a powerful punch to the bear.
In just a few rounds of fighting, Uchiha Yue completely gained the upper hand!
That giant black bear, comparable to Chunin -level ninja, was reduced to nothing more than a punching bag in front of Uchiha Yue!
"Thump..."
"Thump..."
Then, Uchiha Yue landed several more punches on the giant black bear in front of him, once again forcing it back a few steps. However, the giant black bear was extremely resilient; despite several successful attacks, Uchiha Yue still couldn't injure it. Clearly, the giant black bear's advantage lay in its resistance to blows, so even if Uchiha Yue used his Fubuki Tachi, he might not be able to break through the giant black bear's defenses.
But does that giant black bear's incredible resilience truly guarantee it won't be killed by Uchiha Yue?
The answer, of course, is no!
Immediately, as Uchiha Yue realized the astonishing defense of the giant black bear before him, a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips. Then, he concentrated his Chakra into his right fist. After using Basic Shatter Step to dodge the giant Uchiha Yue's attack once more, Uchiha Yue's Uchiha Yue, imbued with dense Chakra, suddenly slammed into the bear's abdomen!
"Falling Moon Style - Penetrating Force!"
"Bang..."
"Bang..."
"Bang..."
