"Haha, that's exactly the feeling I wanted!"
"Yes, yes, yes, that's youthful spirit!"
"For that reason alone, Cloud Ninja kid, I support you!"
"Come on, let's make the battle even more intense!"
"Charge!!"
" Ice Release Kid, make this one even more spectacular!"
The stands were bustling, the atmosphere lively.
The opening scene was filled with an intense, palpable sense of tension, truly stirring the hearts of tens of thousands of spectators who had bought tickets specifically for a similar spectacle.
A fairly standard battle?
Sorry, that's not what they want to see!
Being arrogant and hot-tempered is exactly what they like!
"Hehe, this is interesting!"
From the stands, looking down at the fiercely competitive Toroi, Qi raised an eyebrow slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
The next second.
"Buzz!"
It was a faint, icy chill that seemed to spread unintentionally.
"Hiss!?"
"This?"
First, Mei Terumi and Kisame, who were closest to them, instinctively trembled slightly. Then, Kakashi, Baki, and the others, who were a little further away, turned to look at them with astonished eyes.
In less than a second.
Qi's figure seemed to be enveloped in a layer of icy white mist, gradually dissipating into the distance.
The next moment!
"Buzz!"
The world is a blank mess, so filthy!
Not far from Toroi.
As a scene of frost and blizzard suddenly appeared.
"Oh, oh, oh!?"
"What's this!?"
"Sharp!"
"Isn't that too extravagant!?"
What is this thing?!
"I can't take it, I can't take it, how can he be so handsome!"
"Qi Jun!"
The beautiful ice crystal flowers scattered in all directions, the chilling white mist spreading out, and Qi's upright figure standing calmly amidst them—the moment these came into the view of tens of thousands of spectators, an even more ear-piercing and noisy scream and shout erupted from the stands.
Magnificent to the extreme.
It must be said that at this moment, Qi's appearance was truly stunning, captivating all the audience members present. Even the Jonin the various ninja villages couldn't help but show a hint of amazement.
'Using the principles of Hidden Mist Technique, combined with Ice Release and Body Flicker Technique? This kid actually managed to pull it off!'
On the stands, Qing smiled gently, his eyes filled with admiration. Even without considering their future performance, their Kirigakure's performance was already unmatched, and Qi alone had taken the show to a whole new level!
This applies to ordinary people like us.
The nobles and dignitaries above all looked at Qi with great interest!
These nobles, who only eat and sleep, lead very monotonous and boring daily lives. Qi's performance is enough to win them over!
' The Ice Release is really beautiful!'
Some nobles had this absurd idea pop into their minds, and because of this, they even decided that they must hire ninjas from the Yuki Clan of Kirigakure to carry out their future missions!
'That guy Qi!'
Mei Terumi, who had been standing side by side with Kei, was also briefly taken aback before looking at Kei below with a smile in her eyes.
'snort'
Kisame, sitting to the side, also let out a soft snort, a hint of jealousy flickering in his gaze as he looked towards where Kei was.
Even Kakashi, Baki, and the others on the other side subconsciously widened their eyes slightly.
No teenager hasn't fantasized about being powerful and handsome.
Unless he has no dreams, he's a born salted fish.
Otherwise, at this very moment, no one would fail to envy Qi's magnificent entrance!
This truly exemplifies what it means to stand out from the crowd!
'That guy!'
The Toroi standing in the closest position had an incredibly cold look in his eyes, fiercely competitive—a typical youthful trait!
Not to mention that Qi had completely overshadowed him at this moment.
The way his right hand clenched tightly, and the increasingly chilling aura he exuded, perfectly illustrated the turbulent emotions within this young Cloud Ninja.
"Start!"
Therefore.
Almost immediately after Minato's resounding declaration of war.
The Toroi, positioned on the left, launched the attack first.
With a flick of his hand, the scroll was pulled out.
"Puff!"
An unfurled scroll.
A plume of white smoke billowed out.
Two enormous square Shuriken appeared out of thin air.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Under Toroi's control.
Two square Shuriken shot out swiftly, aiming at Qi's location, and rushed towards him at top speed.
As the loud, piercing sound of something cutting through the air subsided...
Qi, standing directly in front, suddenly focused his gaze.
Ice Release: Ice Crystal Flower!
That technique was released through synchronized, rapid Hand Seals.
In mid-air.
It looked like snowflakes were falling.
A cluster of dazzling ice crystal flowers, formed from the condensation of the ice crystals.
At the point of spiraling.
He blocked the two enormous square Shuriken flying through the air.
"Clang!"
As a loud, resounding crash subsided...
"Snap!"
"Splash!"
One by one, the ice crystal flowers shattered, turning into puddles of water that crashed down.
This scene seems unparalleled.
Just as Toroi's lips curled into a beautiful smile, and he was about to press forward further...
"Um!?"
Suddenly.
However, he felt that the two giant Shuriken he had released had become incredibly heavy, as if they were difficult to pull Shuriken or control.
What comes into view.
The outer edges of the two Shuriken were visibly covered with specks of ice crystals, accompanied by a chilling white mist that spread outwards.
Two Shuriken fell heavily to the ground.
"Asshole!"
Toroi's expression changed involuntarily, and he muttered a curse under his breath.
The next moment.
"Boom!"
Qi's figure, however, was a step ahead, forcing him directly to Toroi's vicinity, where a chilling frost blade materialized in his palm.
He aimed directly at Toroi's location and slashed down fiercely.
In the blink of an eye.
Toroi's expression tightened.
He decisively launched himself into the air and immediately created distance.
"Bang!"
The falling frost blades stirred up a cloud of dust on the ground.
Seeing the deep crater that had been smashed open and the spreading frozen landscape, Toroi's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and his heartstrings tightened.
But the work at hand did not stop in the slightest.
"Drink!"
With a light sip.
He immediately unleashed his signature technique— Magnet Release Technique!
He was remotely controlling the two giant Shuriken.
With a flick of the wrist...
"Buzz!"
The ice crystals that were directly shattered.
"Brush!"
The square Shuriken, which flew back in the opposite direction, was once again heading straight for Qi's location.
