A Tense Situation

Training Ground Three.

The firestorm was still raging.

Naruto and Sasuke stood to the left and right, constantly changing the angles of their Wind Release and Fire Release attacks.

Sakura was like a shell that could explode at any moment, constantly searching for openings between their attacks.

Compared to the first round, the three of them were completely different now.

During the first round, they had merely thrown out every ninjutsu they were best at.

Naruto was responsible for creating gale-force winds.

Sasuke was responsible for creating flames.

Sakura was responsible for closing in amid the chaos.

It had looked spectacular, but there had been no coordination whatsoever between the three of them.

But now, they had finally begun to understand—

True teamwork was not three people attacking at the same time.

It was making each person's attack become support for the next.

"Naruto, the right side!"

Sasuke suddenly called out in a low voice.

Naruto did not hesitate at all and swiftly formed hand seals.

"Wind Release: Pressure Damage!"

A violent gale howled out from the side, sweeping up the flames burning across the training ground and turning them into a blazing wall of fire that instantly sealed off the Shadow Clone's retreat to the right.

At the same time, Sasuke charged out from the front.

"Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu!"

The crimson fireball surged forward with rolling heat waves, flying straight at the Shadow Clone.

The Shadow Clone's Three-Tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly.

He saw through their tactic at a glance.

Fire Release suppression from the front.

Wind and fire sealing off the right.

And on the left was the attack position where Sakura had been waiting for a long time.

If he broke through forward, he would run into Sasuke.

If he dodged right, he would be trapped in
