Sand Binding Coffin... Binding Coffin

Looking at the messy room and the walls covered in feces, Wu Di's expression turned grim.

He glared at Shino and said menacingly, "I'll give you half an hour to clean this place up. If you don't, I guarantee I'll kill you myself!"

Shino knew Wu Di's capabilities. With those words, how could he dare not hurry?

However, what he didn't know was that Wu Di's abilities could only be used around the small shop.

Once he stepped outside that range, he was just an ordinary person.

The competition arena.

After half an hour of cleaning, the arena was finally spotless.

Gekko Hayate stood in the center of the arena, holding a folder.

"The next match is Konoha's Rock Lee versus Sunagakure's Gaara!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two figures instantly leaped into the arena.

"Lee, carry out your Ninja Way!" Might Guy shouted from the stands.

He looked as if he had been injected with adrenaline.

The surrounding ninjas cast sideways glances, and even his good friend Kakashi had a dark expression.

Then, Little Lee gave a thumbs up and smiled slightly at Might Guy, his pearly white teeth flashing.

Turning back, his expression suddenly became more serious.

On the other side, Gaara already wore a confident smile.

With the boost from Shukaku's Tail, he felt filled with power.

He hadn't listened to the Boss explain the full effects when he'd won the lottery that day, but after a few days of getting used to it, he had basically mastered the tail's capabilities.

Little Lee let out a long breath and leaped backward onto the large, imposing statue behind him.

Everyone was very confused.

Normally, when a match started, he should be charging forward. Why was he retreating?

Just as everyone was puzzled, he slowly rolled up his pant leg and removed two lead weights from his calves.

"It's just removing some weights, how much can it increase attack power!"

Gaara sneered as he watched the lead weights fall.

However, the moment the lead weights hit the ground, the immense impact force caused the entire arena to tremble.

Gaara was taken aback, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared straight ahead.

"Is he... kidding me?"

In the next instant, Little Lee suddenly went berserk, his speed increasing by an entire level.

With just a flash, he was already in front of Gaara.

He threw a heavy punch, and even Sand Defense struggled to keep up.

Gaara began to feel nervous...

He clenched his fists tightly, and the Shukaku's Tail behind him gradually grew larger!

"You think a little trick like this can do anything to me?"

Little Lee chuckled and, with a flash, appeared behind him.

"Let me show you Konoha Ninjutsu, Front Lotus!"

However, as soon as he shouted, he realized a serious problem.

By the time he reached Gaara, that massive tail had already appeared silently above his head.

"Damn it!" he cursed inwardly.

If he continued his attack, the giant tail would surely crush him.

His only option now was to temporarily abandon his attack on Gaara.

Little Lee flickered and retreated a few steps.

Gaara also relaxed slightly.

Looking back at the swaying tail behind him, he couldn't help but smile happily.

This was the first time he felt this tail was a little cute!

Little Lee retreated to a spot outside the tail's reach, gritting his teeth.

This Sand ninja opposite him was too strong; he couldn't get close at all.

If this continued, wouldn't all his Body Technique training be in vain?

He took a deep breath, forcing Chakra towards the Eight Gates.

"Third Gate, Gate of Life, open!"

"Fourth Gate, Gate of Pain, open!"

With the fourth gate opened, a green aura appeared around his body.

"Let's see how you can defend yourself this time!"

Taking a deep breath, Rock Lee suddenly charged forward.

"Golden Bell Shield, open!"

A golden light suddenly appeared around his charging silhouette.

Caught off guard, Gaara's Sand Defense was completely breached.

Even Shukaku's Tail couldn't keep up with the current speed.

He was shocked, never imagining that someone his age could cultivate Body Technique to such a level!

He clenched his fists tightly, looking at Rock Lee with extreme unwillingness, but he was helpless.

Rock Lee regulated his breathing and used his maximum speed to kick Gaara into the air.

As Gaara soared, a crack suddenly appeared on his face.

His proud absolute defense had also been broken?

In an instant, he felt endless humiliation.

His killing intent was released without any concealment.

After this move, he would completely end Rock Lee's life!

Reaching the ceiling, Rock Lee took a deep breath.

"Fifth Gate, Gate of Limit, open!"

In the blink of an eye, the Gate of Limit opened, and Rock Lee's speed increased once more.

"Let me show you my ultimate move: Reverse Lotus!"

A huge gust of wind roared in his ears, carrying an endless shockwave as Gaara plummeted rapidly!

Fortunately, there was still some height above the ground, and the large gourd behind him, along with Shukaku's Tail, cushioned his fall.

"Thump!"

Countless dust and smoke rose from the arena.

Rock Lee rolled out of the dust, collapsing weakly to the side. After opening five gates, he was extremely fatigued and had no strength left to struggle!

However, to everyone's astonishment, in the center of the arena, Gaara was completely wrapped by Shukaku's Tail.

He didn't seem to have sustained any damage.

But this was only on the surface.

After the previous impact, Gaara's insides were churning violently, making him extremely uncomfortable.

He raised his hand and glared fiercely at Rock Lee.

"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"

Evil Chakra flowed from his mouth, forming a hazy stream of air.

The sand behind him shot out like sharp swords!

They quickly wrapped around Rock Lee's limbs.

Gaara let out an ominous laugh, "You broke my Sand Armor, unforgivable!"

"Sand Binding Coffin!"

He clenched his fist violently, and instantly, the sand wrapped around Rock Lee collapsed inward.

But, although Rock Lee was now weak, the effect of the Golden Bell Shield was still active.

With the Golden Bell Shield's enhancement, how could he be so easily injured by Gaara?

Gaara was somewhat confused.

His Sand Binding Coffin had never failed him before; why was it ineffective this time?

"Sand Binding Coffin... Coffin... Coffin!"

He clenched his fist three times, but the sand wrapped around Rock Lee remained motionless.

He frowned, his brow furrowed in disbelief, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Immediately after, his vision began to darken.

The previous blows had been too heavy, completely exceeding his limit.

His body involuntarily tilted backward.

Originally, everyone thought the match would end in a draw.

But just as Gaara was about to fall, Shukaku's Tail suddenly stood up and supported him.

Seeing this, Gekko Hayate sighed helplessly and walked forward, clearing his throat. "The winner of this match is Gaara of Sunagakure!"
