Chapter 31

"It's nothing." Uchiha Sou gave the Uchiha Clan Head an indifferent glance, then closed his eyes to rest.

The Uchiha Clan Head frowned. This old man was not worried about his grandson at all. Could he have some trump card?

At that thought, a shadow crossed the Uchiha Clan Head's face. This battle was already a case of an elder bullying a younger one, so he absolutely could not lose.

If Fugaku lost to Uchiha Liu Feng, it would likely be difficult for him to become Clan Head. Even if he did, many Uchiha clan members would be unconvinced.

The Uchiha clan was proud by nature and revered strength. They believed in powerful ninja. If Fugaku lost, even becoming Clan Head would not let him command the clan's respect.

Chapter 31

Looking at Uchiha Fugaku's liver-colored expression, Liu Feng was in quite a good mood.

Thanks to what he had said, quite a few people were now cursing Uchiha Fugaku for bullying someone younger and being shameless.

If he lost after fighting Liu Feng as well, Uchiha Fugaku would be too ashamed to face anyone. He would probably have to cover his face whenever he walked down the street.

"Uchiha Liu Feng."

Uchiha Fugaku glared at Liu Feng resentfully and let out a low roar, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

"Have you developed killing intent?"

After fusing with Nine-Tails Chakra, Liu Feng had become extremely sensitive to killing intent.

Naruto Uzumaki in Perfect Nine-Tails Mode could sense an enemy's malice. Liu Feng could not precisely sense all malice, but he was still highly sensitive to killing aura.

But it did not matter. Liu Feng had not intended to let him off easily this time either. Though he did not want to reveal everything, there were times when he had to show some edge.

"You make the first move."

Uchiha Fugaku suppressed his fury as he spoke to Liu Feng.

Bullying someone younger was bad enough. If he struck first too, he would truly lose all face.

"Then I won't hold back."

Liu Feng had no intention of being polite. He used the Body Flicker Technique to appear behind Uchiha Fugaku, then slammed a Rasengan toward him.

Boom!

The ground was blasted into a huge crater. Uchiha Fugaku, who had barely dodged, broke out in a cold sweat. He had nearly been killed by that ball of Chakra.

"A ninjutsu without hand seals?"

The watching ninja showed astonishment. A ninjutsu that could be used without forming hand seals—the Rasengan was the first of its kind.

"The power of that ninjutsu is at least A-rank. Did that Uchiha kid develop it himself?" Tsunade watched Liu Feng with great interest.

Although this was her first time meeting Uchiha Liu Feng, she had heard of him from Nawaki long ago. According to Nawaki, they had a fairly good relationship.

Naturally, Tsunade remembered an Uchiha clansman who was on good terms with Nawaki.

"This ninjutsu..." Orochimaru's eyes carried a trace of greed. He was particularly obsessed with ninjutsu, especially unusual seal-less ninjutsu like this.

"Tch, so this is what a genius is like? Kind of irritating."

Jiraiya spoke with a twitch of his lips. This kid was only around ten years old and had not graduated long ago. Rumor had it that he had already Become a Chunin.

Judging by his current performance, his strength was probably beyond that of a Chunin.

"Ninjutsu without hand seals."

Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi fell into deep thought.

Regardless of what the spectators were thinking, the battle continued. Liu Feng held a Kunai and engaged Uchiha Fugaku in taijutsu combat.

Despite being younger, his speed and strength both far surpassed Uchiha Fugaku's, and he completely suppressed him.

Moreover, Uchiha Fugaku was not a ninja who excelled at taijutsu. What he was better at was ninjutsu, Fire Style Ninjutsu.

"A Two Tomoe Sharingan. Not bad."

Liu Feng stared into Uchiha Fugaku's Two Tomoe Sharingan. His opponent tried to use Sharingan Genjutsu on Liu Feng, but even without activating his Sharingan, Uchiha Fugaku's genjutsu was ineffective against him.

His spiritual power was too strong. Ordinary genjutsu could not possibly affect Liu Feng.

Lightning Style: Chidori.

Lightning Chakra gathered in Liu Feng's right palm, forming a high-intensity current. The sound it produced was like the chirping of a thousand birds.

He unlocked the Three Tomoe Sharingan. The instant he met Uchiha Fugaku's gaze, he used Sharingan Genjutsu, leaving Uchiha Fugaku dazed.

Then he charged straight ahead. Crossing ten meters in less than a second, Liu Feng appeared before Uchiha Fugaku, his palm wrapped in Lightning Chakra piercing Uchiha Fugaku's abdomen like a sharp blade.

He withdrew his hand instantly, then landed a side kick on Uchiha Fugaku's chest, sending him flying.

The final side kick was no weak blow either. Liu Feng could clearly hear the crack of bone breaking.

Everything happened in a flash. Even the watching Uchiha Clan Head only reacted after Liu Feng had finished attacking.

Seeing Uchiha Fugaku's miserable, heavily wounded state, the Uchiha Clan Head flew into a rage and glared at Liu Feng with killing intent.

"Someone, take Fugaku for treatment!" the Uchiha Clan Head roared.

His abdomen had been pierced and his ribs shattered. It would take at least a month for those injuries to fully recover.

"Uchiha Liu Feng, you were far too ruthless. You actually tried to kill a fellow clansman."

After seeing Uchiha Fugaku sent to Konoha Hospital, the Uchiha Clan Head turned and fixed his gaze on Liu Feng, wishing he could kill him on the spot.

Especially upon seeing Liu Feng's Three Tomoe Sharingan, he felt an enormous threat. If Uchiha Liu Feng remained alive, his son might not be able to inherit the position of Clan Head.

Yet he did not dare attack Liu Feng. Uchiha Sou was watching from nearby.

If he made a move, he would face Uchiha Sou's thunderous strike as he protected his grandson. He truly was not confident he could defeat that old man.

"Clan Head, you've wronged me. If I had truly intended to kill him, Uchiha Fugaku would already be dead," Liu Feng said calmly in the face of the Uchiha Clan Head's murderous glare.

In this battle, Liu Feng had held back immensely. In fact, he had already had a chance to kill Uchiha Fugaku with the first Rasengan.

If Liu Feng had not deliberately slowed down, how could Uchiha Fugaku have possibly dodged it?

Later, when he used Chidori, if Liu Feng had attacked Uchiha Fugaku's heart, Uchiha Fugaku would already be stone dead.
