Chapter 19 Ino vs. Sasuke
"Just you?" To be honest, even though there has been an obvious change in temperament, Sasuke still looks down on the current Ino. When he spoke, his expression was filled with pride and a condescending attitude.
Ino seemed to be talking to him, but was actually talking to the jonin who were watching from all sides: "I now have mastered a B-level family secret technique and a C-level family secret technique, developed the nature and form changes of water-attributed chakra, and mastered a C-level water jutsu and a D-level water jutsu."
"Ino also distracted herself to learn water jutsu? How long did it take her to learn it?" Shikaku who was hiding in the dark asked Haiyi.
The first chakra attribute of a ninja is the easiest to develop, but the second is a bit difficult. After that, it becomes increasingly difficult due to the restraint of chakra attributes.
The reason why the people of the Ino, Deer, and Chou families did not develop their respective chakra properties was because it was a waste of time and energy. During the war years, they had no time to develop chakra properties. After the war, they were busy with their wives, children, and work, so they had even less time. If they had the free time, they might as well continue to study the family secrets.
In Shikaku's opinion, Ino's research on water jutsu was a bit of a waste of time.
Haiyi also discussed this issue with his daughter, but after realizing that Ino was quite talented in ninjutsu, he did not interfere any further.
Ninja is a profession that involves killing. Be it using the Five Elements escape techniques or the family secret techniques, any technique that can kill the enemy is a good ninjutsu.
The Yamanaka family's secret techniques are basically useless without the cooperation of teammates, so it does not hurt to learn some five-element escape techniques with strong control capabilities.
He sighed, and under Shikaku's strange look, he started to act Versailles again: "This child is too stubborn. She won't listen to anything I say. She wants to change her nature, change her form, and learn water escape ninjutsu. Is it easy to learn? It's a waste of half a month. Half a month! If you had this much time, how good would it be to practice the family secrets? This child is not obedient at all. She has such low aptitude and a complicated mind. She does whatever she wants. It really worries me to death."
The jonins were expressionless: “.”
The jonin in the dark fell silent. Sasuke in the classroom sneered, "Idiot, ninjutsu must be tested in actual combat. The more ninjutsu you know, the stronger you are. Even if you know a thousand ninjutsu, it will only take me half a minute to knock you down."
Kakashi, who was hiding in the dark and pretending to be a passerby, felt inexplicably embarrassed. Several senior ninjas glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally.
Iruka arrived in a hurry and saw that they were about to duel. He vaguely realized that the village leaders were paying attention to this place. He couldn't stop them at all, so he could only lead everyone to the playground.
"You are not allowed to attack the eyes, heart or other vital parts. If one party admits defeat, the other party must stop immediately. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
"That's long-winded."
The two people stood five meters apart.
According to school regulations, Ino raised the index and middle fingers of her right hand, pressed her thumb on her ring and little fingers, and formed a "seal of opposition", which meant that she would treat the student opposite her as an opponent.
Sasuke was not that angry at the moment, and he also obediently made the "Seal of Opposition".
"start."
As soon as Iruka finished speaking, Sasuke threw out three shurikens in a V-shape.
His shuriken covered Ino from three directions: left, middle and right.
Both Sasuke and Naruto are very intelligent people in combat, even though one relies on his brain and the other on his intuition, the process is not important, only the result is important, and they are both good at fighting.
As soon as Sasuke made a move, he found Ino's weakness in physical skills and began to attack with force.
"Hmph." Ino's insight could not compare with the Byakugan and Sharingan, but relying on her excellent perception ability, she could still clearly see the attack routes of the three shurikens.
This kind of duel where both sides stand five meters apart is actually not fair to her, but she didn't say anything and just responded to the opponent's moves.
Ino held the kunai in reverse, and didn't even look at the shurikens that were shot to the left and right, but just deflected the shurikens that were flying towards her face.
"You lose!" Sasuke clasped his hands together and hooked his fingers. The shurikens shot to both sides were pulled by the steel wire, circled half a circle, and attacked Ino from the side and rear.
Ino quickly twisted her waist and dodged sideways. She dodged one shuriken, but the other one pierced straight into her back.
"Ah! Ino!" Sakura exclaimed when she saw this scene.
Before she finished her words, she heard a soft "bang" and a piece of wooden stake fell where Ino had originally stood, with the shuriken shot by Sasuke stuck on the side of the stake.
Sasuke sneered coolly: "Let me see how much chakra you have available."
Ino's voice came from a tree not far away: "That's it? If it's this consumption, I can fight you all day long."
The next second, the two of them, each holding a kunai, collided with each other in mid-air. Ino's strength was not as good as Sasuke's, so her center of gravity shifted backwards and she kept backing away, trying to increase the distance.
Sasuke pressed forward with every move, fighting extremely ferociously.
"This bastard!" Even though he was confident in his daughter's strength, Yamanaka Ino was still a little angry at this time. The Yamanaka family was not good at physical skills, and the family's position was to provide auxiliary artillery. Sasuke relied on his male strength advantage to attack fiercely, and Ino's situation was very dangerous.
"Don't worry, I see Ino is very calm. This kid should have a plan." Shikaku comforted his old friend.
In fact, he was also thinking in his heart, if his son left the Pig-Deer-Cute team, would he be able to face the strong enemy alone? He believed that his son's wisdom could turn defeat into victory, but before that, the whole scene would most likely be very embarrassing.
Hai Yi knew that he was too concerned and therefore forced himself to calm down and continue watching the fight.
Sasuke attacked fiercely for more than ten moves. Faced with his fierce killing moves, Ino had no choice but to use the substitution technique twice.
"Is all you know how to dodge? Where's your ninjutsu?" Sasuke was actually enjoying the fight, as he had mostly released some of the annoyance in his heart. If Ino admitted defeat at this moment, he would stop.
Ino had a serious expression and kept observing her surroundings.
They fought from inside the school to the river outside the school, and were chased all the way. Now they are giving up? Are they dreaming?
"Sasuke-kun, I'm going to teach you a lesson today. The name of the lesson is the importance of terrain to ninjas."
Water jutsu is the easiest jutsu to learn and develop, but its disadvantage is obvious. If there is no water in the combat area, using water jutsu will require a large amount of chakra to create water.
Ino does not have the chakra of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, and the ability to change the high-level water-attribute chakra form. She needs water in the natural environment to use water jutsu. This small river which is very close to the school and often appears in the memories of Naruto and Sasuke is the target she chose before the war.
The river water was moved by the chakra. Her expression was solemn. Her hands quickly formed seals in the order of "丑", "巳", and "未": "Water Style. Mist Hidden Technique!"
