"Water Release: Hydrified Giant!"
In the white mist, Hozuki Suigetsu's body suddenly swelled.
A torrent of water gathered into a massive body. A fist made of water rose high and slammed down toward Sasuke!
Boom!
Water exploded outward, sweeping across the entire arena.
The ground caved into a huge crater, and water surged through the cracks in every direction.
Outside the arena, Naruto shot to his feet.
"Sasuke!"
Sakura clenched her fists nervously.
Even Mei Terumi frowned slightly. This move cost Suigetsu a great deal of Chakra, but its sheer size and volume of water could overwhelm an opponent. If Sasuke took a direct hit, he would be lucky to escape in one piece.
Shisui Uchiha stood at the edge of the arena, eyes fixed on the battlefield. He did not rush to call the match.
He could tell Sasuke had dodged before the attack landed.
The churning water blocked everyone's view for a moment.
Then a dark figure leaped out of the spray and landed at the edge of the arena.
Sasuke crouched low, his clothes soaked and his shoulder cut by flying stone.
But the water fist had not struck him directly.
"He dodged it?" Naruto breathed a sigh of relief.
Kakashi stood beside him, still looking grim.
"He only dodged that one blow."
"Suigetsu has turned the arena into his home ground. Sasuke is running out of room to move."
In the arena, the water giant turned and swept a massive arm toward Sasuke.
Sasuke did not try to block it. He leaped back at once.
The arm smashed into the ground, throwing up waves several meters high that nearly flooded the entire arena.
Using the waves to hide himself, Sasuke moved quickly along the arena's edge.
He did not waste Chakra on a large-scale Fire Release
