Chapter 154 Signal
"Earth Style. Submerge in the Earth" Temari also knew this C-level Earth Style ninjutsu. As the eldest daughter of the Fourth Kazekage, she was three years older than Ino and the others. Temari had rich combat experience and was not dominated by anger. She tapped the ground with her right foot and jumped high. Ino's "Heart Beheading Technique" that was about to pull her into the mud failed.
"Kaze Kirigiri!" Temari jumped to a high place and swung a more than two-meter-long, extremely sharp thin air blade downwards.
Ino's "Underground Navigation" was still effective. Her body moved sideways two meters in the mud like a fish, dodging the wind blades by turning sideways. She raised her head and retaliated.
"Water escape. Water breaking wave!"
Tsunade herself is not good at water jutsu, but she is knowledgeable. In addition, Water Break Wave is the ninjutsu of her second grandfather, whom she has seen since she was a child. Her second grandfather also told her about the many techniques and usage of this jutsu.
In order to maintain her teacher image, she taught Ino many water-style jutsu techniques that she herself might not even understand.
With the indirect instruction from the Second Hokage, Ino's application of Water Style increased by 10% from the original level.
At this time, the water line was fast and accurate. Temari, who was in mid-air, had no way to gain leverage and could only use her most precious ninja fan to block it.
With a "clang" sound, Mizudanboqie made a crisp metallic sound on the ninja fan, which should actually be called the Sanxing fan.
Temari used this buffer to avoid the water wave. After landing, she looked at her ninja fan with heartache.
The Three Stars Fan is inferior to Uchiha Madara's Flame Fan, but it is also a treasure made by the ancestors of the Sand Village using branches of the sacred tree and a large amount of precious metals. Now it has a gap more than two fingers deep in it!
Ino was also a little surprised. She was not prepared to kill Temari, and she was holding back on the Water Breaking Wave move. If the opponent couldn't block it, she would have withdrawn. But she didn't expect it to be blocked by a broken fan.
Temari was both afraid and angry. She opened the Three Star Fan completely, injected her own wind-attribute chakra into it, and blew out a large-scale tornado in the direction of Ino.
This move has a wide attack range. Ino did not use any low-level ninjutsu to dodge, but instead used her best water ninjutsu to defend herself, a water ninjutsu that Tsunade taught her, which also came from the Second Hokage.
She gathered the chakra between her chest and abdomen, then put her hands together and spit out the chakra towards the sky: "Water Style. Water Wave!"
A big hole seemed to appear in the sky out of nowhere, and an endless stream of water poured down. The water was driven by chakra and rotated rapidly, like a water column that penetrated the sky and the earth.
The water tornado covered a very large area, and as it spun rapidly, Temari's wind blades were all blocked outside.
This move was both offensive and defensive. The water tornado seemed slow but was actually fast, overwhelming and pressing over. Temari's space to move was getting smaller and smaller, and even the referee Genma Shiranui looked a little embarrassed.
For Ino's friends and her family, this level of water jutsu is already commonplace. The Great Explosion Water Wave is shocking, and the Water Wave in front of them is just average. But for many Chunins and Jonins, the power of this technique is a bit exaggerated.
Several Anbu ninjas in charge of on-site security couldn't help but discuss in a low voice.
"Is that the eldest daughter of the Yamanaka family? She can actually launch such a large-scale water ninjutsu out of thin air without water? This water ninjutsu seems to be the ninjutsu of the Second Hokage, right?"
The companion whispered, "I heard that she is now a disciple of Lady Tsunade."
Does Tsunade-sama's disciple have anything to do with water jutsu of this scale? The ANBU ninja who spoke first thought about it and felt that there seemed to be some connection. Facing the water rush that covered half of the arena, Temari used all her means and even summoned the spirit beasts, but it was still useless. All kinds of wind jutsu would be offset as long as they entered the water rush. Ino kept replenishing and maintained the scale of the water rush. The two sides slowly entered the chakra competition stage.
Apart from Naruto and Gaara, Ino has never been afraid of anyone when it comes to chakra competition.
Temari's chakra capacity was just average. After holding on for a minute, her chakra was almost exhausted and she could only raise her hands to admit defeat.
The next few games went by very quickly.
Gaara fought against Shino Aburame. After a few moves, Shino felt that he could not beat the opponent and raised his hands to admit defeat.
Naruto fought hard against Rock Lee, and finally defeated him with his powerful recovery ability.
Kankuro gave up directly.
Shikamaru defeated Hinata, and then Sasuke faced Shikamaru. The two fought. Shikamaru fought quite hard. His physical skills, genjutsu, and ninjutsu were all at a certain level, and were considered top-notch among the Twelve Ninjas. However, he was ultimately no match for the Sharingan, and Sasuke successfully advanced to the next round.
Undercurrents are surging, and with the cover of the previous few games, Sand Village and Sound Village are ready to launch an attack.
Now waiting for a signal.
And that signal is coming.
Ino to Gaara!
The Third Hokage on the high platform had a deep look in his eyes. He asked the Fourth Kazekage beside him: "Mr. Kazekage, is it true that there will be no problems if your village sends the Jinchūriki to fight?"
The tone of the "Fourth Kazekage" was particularly calm: "If I am not mistaken, didn't your village also send the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to participate in the exam? I think we have enough means to clamp down on them."
The Third Hokage nodded slowly: "That's good."
As Genma Shiranui's "match begins", Ino immediately creates two shadow clones.
To deal with Gaara, the fighting skills of ordinary ninjas are completely useless, so you have to use powerful ninjutsu to attack! Ino's real body and shadow clones formed seals at the same time, and then a blanket of bubbles covered the entire arena.
The bubbles reflected colorful light in the sunlight, forming a dense patch.
The Third Hokage couldn't help but pause while smoking. He had heard of this technique and the subsequent Steam Danger Explosion from Asuma and Hong, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.
The reason why the bubbles can reflect light is mainly because the surface is covered with a layer of oil. He is very familiar with this oil. It is obviously Jiraiya's technique.
The Third Hokage seemed to be thinking about something. The Fourth Kazekage beside him recalled his previous experience and said sinisterly, "This water-fueling ninjutsu is a bit like Takamura Jiraiya's technique?"
The Third Hokage asked, "Oh? Lord Kazekage, are you familiar with Jiraiya?"
The other party smiled but said nothing.
At this time, the number of bubbles in the competition field has exceeded one thousand. Gaara hugged his arms and stood there motionless, but the fine sand in front of him had formed a layer of sand shield.
Ino shouted softly and waved her hand, and dense bubbles hit Gaara's sand shield.
This time Gaara was prepared. He did not use a simple sand shield for defense. The outermost layer was coarse sand, and the two layers of shields after that were finer and finer each.
He set up three layers of shield defense in succession.
