The rookies worked together in perfect coordination.
For a time!
Gorgeous ninjutsu clashed, and the trash talk never stopped.
Kakashi and Asuma also took turns launching fierce attacks.
Yet even so, Nadare Rōga remained standing, leaving behind only mottled bloodstains.
A battle of attrition.
A numbers game.
A war of insults.
Rōga's armored shield was finally shattered, putting him at a disadvantage.
"Ice Release: Snow Insect Swarm!"
In an instant.
White ice insects filled the sky, blotting out the sun.
Nadare Rōga vanished into the insect fog and escaped on jet boots...
Even so.
The reward notification still appeared.
[ Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing the team battle and defeating the three Snow Ninja. Reward: Rasengan ]
Rasengan!
An A-rank ninjutsu created by the Fourth Hokage, Minato.
It concentrated chakra in one's hand to form an attribute-less chakra sphere that attacked the opponent.
Simple, yet practical.
It could even evolve into an even more powerful Rasengan series...
Chiye Jun was quite satisfied with this reward.
And he would soon have a chance to use it...

The director was thrilled to have captured such epic footage.
Chiye Jun said disdainfully, "Never heard of the 3D remastered version of Avatar? You've clearly never seen computer-generated special effects. They can make scenes even grander than today's."
Still, Chiye Jun greatly appreciated the director's dedication.
It would be highly promising to get hold of a film company in the future...
There was still one day before they reached Wind Flower Castle.
Inside the cabin.
Chiye Jun, Naruto, and Kiba were playing Landlord.
"The loser drinks a bottle of water. No bathroom breaks allowed." Shino and Shikamaru were not playing, but they did not forget to stir up trouble.
Sasuke sat nearby, secretly watching the game.
Choji had gone
