Counterproductive

Boruto was troubled, wondering if he should try to avoid arguments between boys and girls as much as possible, so there wouldn't be a match in the afternoon.

But! Right now, the boys and girls had already started arguing because of different views on Summoning Animals.

Speaking of which, the original purpose of Summoning Animals was to assist in battle. These little girls' ideas were too naive. Had they forgotten the color of blood because they hadn't experienced the cruelty of war?

Boruto complained, feeling like he wanted to cry.

Since that's the case, I might as well make a big scene this afternoon and directly deal with the ringleader from the start!

Boruto thought, silently staring at the girl with purple hair on the playground. At this moment, she stood aside with a look of panic, wanting to step forward and mediate, but feeling powerless.

Um... would such a cute little girl really want to destroy Konoha?

"Hey, Boruto! Come and help us say something, let these girls understand that cuteness is worthless in the face of strength!"

Seeing Boruto still in a daze, Iwabee urged.

"I also think that Summoning Animals only need to be strong, appearance doesn't matter." Inojin expressed his opinion.

Boruto: "He's right!"

The girls' point of view: "Boys are so childish." (That's how it is in the original work, I'm too lazy to write it, you can go and read it if you're interested)

After a lot of trouble, Shino couldn't stand it anymore and suggested a mixed-gender ninjutsu battle.

The rules of the competition were that whoever pulls out the flag on the top of the teaching building first wins!

The boys and girls stood opposite each other on both sides of the school gate, familiarized themselves with the rules of the competition, and waited in full battle array.

Seeing that both sides had good momentum, Shino added, "The rules are like this, the loser must listen to the winner."

"OK."

"Yes!"

"Then, the competition begins!" Shino announced.

As the competition progressed, Iwabee used ninjutsu against the girls with a backhand, "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

A wall quickly stood up, blocking in front of the girls, extending all the way to the school gate, and the girls were directly isolated outside the wall.

"Take this opportunity, hurry up!"

"Good job, Iwabee!"

The boys quickly ran towards the school gate, and someone from the girls' side immediately stepped forward.

Chōchō Akimichi: "Partial Multi-Size Technique!"

Chōchō's arm quickly increased in size, turning into a giant's arm, and punched Iwabee's Earth Flow Wall.

Just as the girls excitedly ran into the campus, Shikadai immediately took action, using a 'Shadow Binding Technique' to directly fix several girls in place.

Boom——!!

An explosion came from the teaching building, causing all the students to stop and look in the direction of the teaching building, not knowing what was happening.

At this time, Shino came down to explain, "I forgot to tell everyone that there are several traps set up in the school building. This is to simulate the urgency of actual combat as much as possible."

Just as Shino was about to explain the reason, he realized that the students had already run away!

Shino: ...

Inside the school building, the boys and girls kept running towards the top floor of the teaching building, only Boruto, silently jumped out of the window and walked towards the roof, gathering Chakra under his feet.

Boruto: You guys fight slowly, I won't disturb you, I'll just go and pull the flag!

Inside the school building, Shuriken techniques, taijutsu, shield techniques, all kinds of dazzling techniques were used, plus various traps, and even miniature Exploding Tags were pasted on the walls.

The sounds of explosions and fighting rose and fell one after another, the boys and girls were in a constant stalemate, but they didn't notice that Boruto was slowly adapting to walking on the wall outside the school building.

After all, he hadn't tried it before, and Boruto walked relatively slowly to be on the safe side in order to get started quickly.

Currently, the boys were at an advantage. When they reached the third floor, the special forces arranged by the girls blocked the boys' path.

But it was only a temporary block. After all, the boys' taijutsu was good, but the girls' main force also rushed over, and as soon as they came up, they threw countless Shuriken at the boys.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The light sound of Shuriken cutting through the air entered their ears, and sharp Kunai and Shuriken moved towards the boys at a uniform speed. Just as the boys were panicking and dodging.

Boruto, who had just walked to the window on the third floor, took action, and then threw a Rasengan towards the corridor, taking the opportunity to bounce away the countless Kunai and Shuriken in the air, and randomly hit a lucky person.

"I was wondering where Boruto went, so he was outside!" Sarada instantly discovered Boruto's whereabouts.

"You guys continue, I'll take a step first." Boruto said casually after finding his rhythm, and then ran directly to the roof.

"Damn it!, don't let him run away!" The girls quickly ran towards the corridor.

Due to the disparity in numbers, there were currently only Boruto, Shikadai, and Inojin left on the boys' side, while all the girls were intact.

Shikadai and Inojin nodded to each other, and then one used 'Shadow Binding Technique' to intercept a large group of girls, while Inojin used 'Super Beast Imitating Drawing' to draw several flying birds to interfere.

Seeing this, the remaining girls directly took out several stacks of Exploding Tags and pasted one on the ceiling of each floor, directly blasting a passage to the roof.

Shikadai, Inojin: "Awesome!"

On the rooftop, just as Boruto was about to plant the flag, a thunderous explosion erupted beneath his feet, forcing him to retreat to a safe distance.

Immediately afterward, several girls emerged from the crater in the ground, standing opposite Boruto with smug expressions.

"The match is decided, Boruto!"

"Rasengan!" Boruto retorted without hesitation, throwing a compressed Rasengan.

Boom—!!

The violent explosion was no less powerful than the previous Exploding Tag, scattering the girls' formation, with some even falling off the rooftop.

Boruto, meanwhile, sprinted toward the flag.

"Trying to run? Partial Multi-Size Technique!"

Chōchō Akimichi directly used her giant hand, slamming it down towards Boruto.

Boruto couldn't help but curse, "Crap, I'm done for!"

After all, Boruto was still a Shadow Clone; if he took such a hit, he'd probably dissipate on the spot.

Forced by the situation, Boruto could only gamble on luck, pulling out the Summoning Scroll he'd retrieved from the ninja tools room earlier. If he was lucky, he could get Nue to mess everything up!

Boruto bit his finger, drawing a small amount of blood, and then hastily formed the hand seals: "Summoning Jutsu!"

At the same time, the Jōgan quietly opened, and Sumire Kakei's back suddenly glowed faintly as the summoning ritual completed.

In a burst of dazzling purple light, the phantom of a massive monster emerged from the summoning circle, its eyes flashing with eerie red light, and the snakehead on its tail swiftly slammed toward Chōchō, who was nearing the flag.

A thunderous explosion erupted, directly destroying the rooftop structure, and the violent impact sent Chōchō and the flag tumbling down together.

Seeing this, Boruto, just like in the original story, used a few Body Flicker Techniques to quickly move forward, catching the falling flag and grabbing Chōchō, then tossing her back towards the other girls.

"Boruto...?!!" Sarada exclaimed.

Unfazed by the fall, Boruto had originally intended to gather Chakra at his feet to stick to the wall, but a massive snake tail swung toward his position.

Boruto: Where's Shino?!

Seeing that he was about to be hit, even though it was a Shadow Clone, it would still affect the main body's movements, right?

"Boruto...!!!" Everyone held their breath for Boruto.

Just as the snake tail was about to strike Boruto, the Jōgan suddenly emitted a strong glow, and Boruto instantly felt his Chakra surge, even more than in his main body!

With the Chakra, Boruto immediately used the wall to accelerate his descent, while creating a Shadow Clone to toss himself back into the air.

Ignoring where his teacher had disappeared to, Boruto had the Shadow Clone guard the flag while he returned to the rooftop and quickly ran towards Nue's position.

"Big Ball Rasengan!"

Boruto rapidly condensed a Rasengan in his hand that far surpassed any he'd made before, then quickly jumped up to avoid the snake tail's attack. This time, the summoned Nue wasn't the real one, so Nue couldn't move.

Boruto easily dodged Nue's tail whip, and then slammed the glowing ball in his hand towards the snake tail's weak spot (probably).

Boom—!!

The power of the Rasengan exploded, creating a twisting vortex that destroyed Nue's phantom, while the entire building began to collapse.

Having done all this, Boruto landed steadily and looked towards Sumire Kakei's position.

Sumire Kakei was currently mixed in with the other girls, her face also showing panic and helplessness at the sudden incident.

"Boruto... are you okay?" Sarada and the other boys came forward to ask.

"Yeah... I'm fine! I'm seriously injured, and I'll be bedridden at home for at least a month!" Boruto was about to casually brush it off, but then he realized he could use this opportunity to take a vacation!

Seeing this, Shikadai laughed and said, "Looks like he's not too bad."

Boruto thought: Leaving aside where the sudden surge of Chakra came from, where the heck is Shino?

At this moment, in some corner, a certain unlucky teacher, focused on filling out student data reports, didn't notice a group of girls sticking Exploding Tags to the ceiling and was blown away
