"Chen! You were so handsome just now! What's our next competition? How about running around the village while standing on your head?!"
On the way away from Kakashi's house, Might Guy was still chattering excitedly.
Senju Chen responded one after another, but his mind had already flown back to that dark underground stone room.
Kakashi There is only so much he can do here.
Create a space for solitude, and then use the name Kushina to beat it, and the rest is up to their own destiny.
And that Flying Thunder God Formula is the insurance he must keep.
He knows better than anyone else what kind of cruel fate Rin Nohara, a gentle and kind girl, will face in the future. She was kidnapped by Kirigakure, forced to become Three-Tails Jinchūriki, and turned into a time bomb that destroyed Konoha. In the end, she died in the hands of the person she loved most.
If possible, Senju Chen would like to try to save Lin.
Saving Lin means cutting off the fuse of Fourth Shinobi World War.
"Let's go, Kai." Senju Chen stopped and looked at his companion who was still posing in a strange posture beside him, and a mischievous smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Before going to the training ground, let me treat you to Ichiraku Ramen to celebrate our becoming lifelong rivals."
"Oh! Ramen! This is part of youth!"
It's not bad to stay with this simple-minded guy.
At least, it can give him a moment of respite from the ubiquitous conspiracies and calculations.
Ichiraku Ramen's door curtain was opened by one hand, and the rich aroma of tonkotsu soup mixed with hot water vapor came to the face.
"Uncle! Two bowls of luxurious special miso barbecued pork ramen!" Might Guy's loud voice almost overturned the small store.
The Teuchi boss who was cooking noodles looked up and saw Kai. He responded cheerfully, "Okay! Kai, do you want to burn your youth even more today?"
"Of course!" Might Guy nodded heavily, then put his arm around Senju Chen's shoulders and introduced to Teuchi, "Uncle, this is my new opponent, Senju Chen! We just had a showdown that cost our youth, and now we need ramen to replenish our energy!"
Senju Chen smiled helplessly and nodded slightly to boss Teuchi.
Staying with this simple-minded guy can indeed make people temporarily forget about those intricate conspiracies and calculations. In his world, there are only training, sweat, opponents and bonds, black and white, and as hot as the noon sun.
Soon, two bowls of ramen piled like a hill were served. The golden noodles were soaked in the rich soup, and large pieces of barbecued pork, soft-boiled eggs, dried bamboo shoots and Naruto rolls were spread all over the place. Just looking at it made people want to eat.
"I'm starting!" Kai shouted with his hands clasped together, then picked up the chopsticks and started sucking the noodles like a whirlwind.
Training Ground Three.
The setting sun burned the clouds on the horizon into a brilliant fiery red, and the afterglow sprinkled on the empty field, giving the two fiercely intertwined figures a golden edge.
"Konoha Whirlwind!"
With a loud shout, Might Guy's figure was like a green top, sweeping towards the bottom of Senju Chen with a strong leg wind.
Senju Chen advanced instead of retreating, tapping his feet on the ground, bending his body backwards in an incredible posture, almost parallel to the ground, narrowly avoiding the powerful and heavy leg sweep. The wind from the leg blew past the tip of his nose, picking up a few strands of black hair.
That's it now!
The moment his body leaned back to the limit, Senju Chen's waist and abdomen suddenly exerted force, and his whole body suddenly bounced up like a compressed spring. A hand knife, as fast as lightning, struck directly at Kai Kongmen's open chest.
His reaction nerves were tempered by thunder and lightning, and they were astonishingly fast. Every movement of Kai seemed to be slowed down by half a beat in his eyes, and all the flaws were clearly visible.
However, Kai's fighting instinct was equally terrifying. Seeing the knife coming, he forcibly twisted his body and used his thick shoulders to withstand the blow!
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound.
Senju Chen felt as if his hand knife had struck a piece of tough cowhide, and a huge shockwave was transmitted back along his arm.
Kai just grunted, and with the help of this force, he rolled and distanced himself. He shook the shoulder that was hit, and instead of feeling pain on his face, he showed an even more excited smile.
"Awesome! Chen! Your speed is too fast! But speed alone is not enough!"
After that, he charged forward again. This time, his offensive became even more wild, with his fists and feet opening and closing, completely exchanging injuries for injuries.
Senju Chen frowned slightly.
This is where the gap lies. Lightning Body Tempering will only form a certain defense after stimulating Lightning Armor. Although his body has been strengthened, it is still essentially flesh and blood. It will definitely not be comfortable to receive a punch like this from Kai. Kai's body has been trained into a real "weapon", and his muscles and bones are his best armor.
Senju Chen no longer confronted him head-on, but took advantage of his speed and reaction to constantly wander and dodge, looking for Kai's flaws.
The battle between the two has turned into an ultimate showdown of speed and strength. One is like a ghost, moving around in every square inch, and every shot is aimed at the vital point; the other is like a Wild Bull, running rampant, using the purest violence, crushing all skills.
Sweat soaked their clothes.
The sky also gradually darkened.
When the last ray of sunset disappeared under the horizon, the two finally stopped in tacit agreement, breathing heavily.
"Huh... huh... so happy!" Might Guy sat down on the ground, wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeves, and gave a thumbs up to Senju Chen, "Chen, you are indeed my destined opponent! Today, it will be a tie!"
Senju Chen also supported his knees and adjusted his breathing. This high-intensity sparring gave him a deeper understanding of his own strength. Lightning Body Tempering gave his body extremely strong reflexes and endurance, while Kai showed him the tenacity and fierceness that pure Taijutsu can achieve.
"It's getting dark, it's time to go back." The purpose of verification has been achieved, Senju Chen straightened up and said goodbye to Might Guy.
"Okay! Tomorrow! Tomorrow we will have a more passionate duel!" Kai waved his fist high-spiritedly.
Looking at his eternally burning look, Senju Chen smiled, turned around and left.
The night is as dark as ink.
Senju At the door of the mansion, a dim yellow lantern swayed gently in the evening breeze.
Senju Chen As soon as he walked to the door, his footsteps paused.
Under the light of the lantern, a figure stood there quietly, with short black hair, black eyes, and a standard Konoha Ninja uniform, with a somewhat familiar gentle smile on his face.
It is Shisui Uchiha.
