Hinata Hyuga, who was performing in public for the first time, looked up at the crowd on the stage. Every glance brought her tremendous pressure.
Being too introverted in this environment will always cause some adverse effects. But Hinata still stood on the duel field without hesitation, only in this way can she live up to her hard training during this period. Teammates, teachers, and brother Neji who spent a lot of time practicing with her, all these kindnesses cannot be let down. Even if she knows that she has little chance of winning, she will fight to the last moment. There is still pride and persistence in her heart, it depends on how much power she can burst out.
As Yamashiro Aoba swung his arm, the game officially began.
Tenten is proficient in the manipulation and summoning of ninja tools, and has chakra characteristics for time and space. As long as he doesn't meet a type that can restrain him like Temari, he is actually a very good firepower player. He can suppress many types of ninjas and is a very popular team ninja.
Hyuga Neji, who is on the same team, is able to defeat Tenten because of their strength suppression. He is a genius who can comprehend the power of rebirth on his own, which is really beyond the control of others.
But Hinata is far inferior. She is not as powerful as Neji. She has not learned the technique of Kaiten, nor does she know the soft fist technique - Bagua Kongzhang. She has no medium and long-range attack capabilities. Facing a ninja like Tenten, she can be dragged to death by kite flying.
When the groups were revealed, Mizuki knew that Hinata Hyuga had little chance of winning. Even though Hinata had been training hard enough during this period, hard work couldn't solve all problems after all. The one who could handle everything with perseverance was the protagonist, and Hinata was just a friend of the protagonist.
Currently, Hinata's Gentle Fist is in a stage of accumulation, and after a process of metamorphosis, her strength will be greatly improved. Now, if she wants to defeat Tiantian, she still has to rely on luck and can only hope that her opponent is careless.
"Ninjutsu Kuchiyose no Jutsu!"
Tenten, who intended to take the initiative, attacked first. Two crutches appeared out of thin air in his hands, and he flexibly approached Hinata with them. The dull collision sound of his palms and the iron sticks was endless. As far as physical combat was concerned, it was very exciting, but the soft fist did not have the gorgeous effect of ninjutsu like in the previous match, and outsiders basically could not understand the danger of it.
Tenten had experienced the power of the soft fist many times from Hyuga Neji, and had a lot of experience in how to deal with it. After the warm-up test, Tenten quickly retreated, put away his crutches, and took out the huge scroll again. The various weapons sealed in the space-time warehouse were the basis for Tenten's attack with ninja tools thrown around like crazy.
"Dragon Explosion!"
A huge dragon-shaped flame appeared in the unfolded scroll and quickly pounced on Hinata Hyuga.
Not only ninja tools, but ninjutsu can also be sealed in some way and released at the right time during battle, eliminating the complicated casting process. The most important advantage is that it can save chakra.
Facing the attack of the fire dragon, Hinata had no choice but to retreat and dodge. No matter how powerful her soft fist was, she was still a flesh and blood body, and could not resist such a strong ninjutsu with her own strength for the time being. Hinata moved sideways quickly and intended to attack from the side, but unfortunately, just as she was about to take the soft fist stance, a large number of kunai, shuriken and other throwing weapons attacked again, interrupting her attack.
"Constant firing of hidden weapons!"
Tenten's control and reaction ability were slightly flawed, but that didn't mean there was no way to remedy it. Various hidden weapons summoned from the scroll flew from all directions, disrupting Hinata's rhythm of using her soft fist. She frantically waved her fists wrapped in chakra to knock down the hidden weapons, and unknowingly, she also lost the initiative in the battle.
Hinata was ultimately unable to completely resist the continuous attacks from hidden weapons. From time to time, shurikens broke through the blind spots in her defense and cut Hinata's clothes and skin. Although they did not hurt her vital parts and had limited impact on her combat effectiveness, the many injuries were very troublesome, and pain was inevitable.
Hyuga Hinata, who has been studying with Mizuki for such a long time, may not have received much guidance from Mizuki in her fighting ability, but her awareness is very good. She knows that if she can't get close, she will have no chance of winning, so she can only take the risk and give it a try.
Giving up on protecting her whole body, she only tried to shoot down those hidden weapons that would hurt her vital parts and affect her combat effectiveness. She took the chance of both sides suffering losses and was hit by several shurikens. In front of Tenten's surprised gaze, Hinata staggered a little and hit Tenten's weak waist and abdomen with her right palm.
“That’s terrible.”
Tiantian, who did not use any powerful ninjutsu because they were ninjas from the same village, now feels a little regretful that he underestimated this weak little girl.
"Soft Fist Technique - Thirty-two Palms of Eight Diagrams!"
In close combat, it is a bit difficult to get out of the rhythm of soft fist.
At the critical moment, Tiantian didn't care too much. Several kunai flew out from the opened scroll and shot towards Hinata. They exploded violently before they made contact.
The shock wave of the explosion hit both of them at the same time, causing the two petite figures to fly backwards and fall to the ground.
Tenten coughed a few times, took a few breaths, and slowly stood up. He looked at Hinata who was struggling to get up, with a face covered in black and gray, a small part of her hair was burnt, and sweat kept flowing from her forehead, leaving a few white water marks.
"I underestimated you. I won't give you too many chances next time."
If I had been a step later, I would have been defeated by the Thirty-Two Palms of Bagua. I didn't expect that the opponent would adopt a strategy that would hurt both sides. If I were to be timid again, it would be very disrespectful.
"Double Rising Dragon!"
Tenten took out two scrolls and launched a powerful ninja tool attack. He stood up and leaped, spreading out the scrolls, which crisscrossed around him in the shape of a dragon. A large number of ninja tools appeared out of thin air and attacked Hinata in an overwhelming manner.
Hinata, who had just endured the power of the explosion, was not in good physical condition, but she still managed to step back and avoid the attack.
"Too slow."
Double Rising Dragon is not a simple throwing of ninja tools. There are steel wires behind the ninja tools. Tiantian can freely control the direction of these ninja tools like a puppeteer. Simply dodging will not have much effect.
Hinata had no time to dodge and had to stop. Her palms flew up and down, like a wall, knocking down all the hidden weapons around her.
Unfortunately, Tiantian just shook his hands, and the hidden weapon flew into the air again to launch a second attack.
Due to a slight mistake, Hyuga Hinata still couldn't withstand the continuous attacks. She suffered multiple injuries on her body, but she still refused to give up, which could not change the fact that she was defeated.
"You still don't admit defeat?"
Countless steel wires swirled around again, tightly binding Hinata's body. With a slight pull, Hinata, who was somewhat unsteady on her feet, fell to the ground, unable to get up again...
