章 43: Chapter 43 Fighting a Chunin

"This guy actually woke up at the last minute!" Asuma smacked his lips with a look of regret.

"Then, let's kill the others first." Sōseki took out shuriken from his ninja bag.

"I'm in charge of the left."

"Then I'm on the right."

The leader frowned and shouted loudly, "Wake up!"

If he can disrupt the flow of chakra in his body by himself, it is possible for him to help his companions, however, the problem is that he can only save one person at a time.

Therefore, he can only hope that his voice can wake them up!

However, it didn't work at all!

Seeing a mass of vacuum sphere flying to the left, and a shuriken shooting to the right, the leader gritted his teeth and could only try to use his shuriken to shoot down the opponent's shuriken, while running wildly to the left, pushing his companions away before the vacuum sphere hit.

"Hah, fortunately I caught up!"

But before he could take a breath, Soseki and Asuma has launched another attack.

"Argh! Damn brats, wait for me!"

"Huh, you attack again?"

"Are you pigs? Wake up!"

After tossing back and forth like this for three times, no matter how slowwitted he is, the leader realized that something was wrong.

Every time the other party attacked, they seemed to leave a gap just right, controlling the timing slightly, so that he would not lose hope of saving his companions at all.

'No, these two little brats did it on purpose!' The leader felt a chill in his heart. These two little brats deliberately left some hope, making him tired of running around, and then he would be easily defeated due to exhaustion.

Kushina was also surprised, 'No one has woken up even after so long. It is impossible for the normal Sly Mind Affect Technique to have such an effect.'

'It seems that my little brother is really amazing!'

Seeing that the two little brats launched another attack, the leader roared angrily and rushed towards them with bloodshot eyes, "Damn little brats, I will kill you!"

Being forced to give up his companions by two little brats made him feel ashamed and furious at the same time.

"Eh, it seems that we made him too furious!" Having said that, Asuma's voice was filled with fear, but instead full of excitement.

"I wonder how strong a Chunin-level opponent will be?" Asuma was looking forward to the fight, and at this moment, a dazzling lightning burst out of the opponent's hands.

Lightning Release: Lightning Wolves!

The lightning turned into a pack of hungry wolves, and rushed towards Asuma as they opened their mouths wide.

'So fast!' Asuma was shocked. The speed of the other party's Lightning Release seemed to be much faster than the one he had seen in the village before.

"As expected of a Shinobi from Kumogakure!" Asuma also quickly formed hand seals, and spit out rounds of flames from his mouth that flew towards the wolves.

Lightning and fire clashed, and a dazzling brilliance suddenly bloomed in the forest at night.

In the aftermath of this collision, the leader violently broke through the lightning and fire remains and rushed towards Asuma.

Seeing the charred enemy rushing towards him, Asuma's pupils shrank violently. He obviously didn't expect the opponent to be so determined, but thanks to his many battles with Sōseki, he is no stranger to this kind of violent offensive.

Using Body Replacement Technique, he dodged in time.

The Kumogakure's Shinobi who has entered the violent state was naturally not satisfied with this result. He kicked the big tree in front of him with his legs and threw himself at Asuma again with the recoil.

"I have to say, have you forgotten something?"

Mountain Storm!

Sōseki's voice appears timely, and then he punched the Kumogakure's Shinobi who was in mid-air.

Boom!

Like a cannonball, the Kumogakure's Shinobi was blown away, ploughing a long ravine in the ground.

"Sure enough, Sōseki is indeed more ferocious!" Asuma muttered, and then asked, "Was that guy directly punched to death?"

On the side, Kushina nodded in relief upon seeing this, 'As expected of my little brother (whom she unilaterally adopts), he has the same violent power like me under his kind heart!'

"Ugh, what kind of monsters are these brats?" The horrified voice of Kumogakure's Shinobi came out of the dust cloud.

At this moment, he was looking at the shards in his chest with horror.

If it weren't for this armor, he would have been directly killed this time.

No, even with this armor as a buffer, he was almost killed by that punch.

"However, I won't give you another chance. I will let you know that Chunin is not something that brats like you, who are not even Genin, can handle with."

"But you were almost killed by us!"

"That was my carelessness."

"But you were almost killed by us!"

"Bastard bastard bastard!" The leader roared and rushed straight towards Asuma.

However, Asuma just quickly formed hand seals with both hands, and didn't even try to dodge at all.

Seeing the situation, the leader subconscious thought of a possibility, but before he could react, the familiar throbbing appeared again.

"Genjutsu again? I'll break through it by force!" The leader knew that he couldn't waste time, so he barely managed to control his left hand to squeeze hard, and the shuriken hidden in his left palm pierced into his flesh.

The intense pain struck, and he finally broke free from the Genjutsu.

Then, a raging heat wave came.

With the previous experience, the leader hurriedly rolled away, but the fireball still managed to hit half of his body.

"Damn, for me to be pushed to such a degree!" The leader held his left hand, and looked at Sōseki's eyes.

He would never imagine that he, a Chunin, couldn't even deal with two little brats.

If he just need to deal with one person alone, he will not be in such difficult situation. But the cooperation of the two little brats on the opposite side is really good, and his group of useless teammates can't wake up again!

Sōseki's expression was neither sad nor happy, but he sighed inwardly, 'As expected of a Fire Release, it won't burn people to death!'

'No, I can't win this battle unless that brat who uses Genjutsu is dealt with first.' Thinking of this, the leader clenched his teeth and rushed towards Asuma again.

Asuma and Sōseki did not suspect him, and subconsciously began to form hand seals.

"Three, two, one... now!" The leader's eyes flashed, as he managed to predict the activation time of Sōseki's Genjutsu in advance. The moment before he was caught by the Genjutsu, he squeezed the smoke bomb in his hand without the slightest hesitation.

'Damn, I can't see where the enemy is!' Asuma secretly thought, but now that his hand seals have been completed, he can only bet on his luck.

The huge fireball went all the way, and finally rushed into the smoke.

With the sound of roaring and cracking, the raised dust and smoke enveloped most of the battlefield.

Just as Asuma was being careful to guard against the opponent's actions, suddenly, a jet-black figure rushed out of the smoke, he is so dark that he almost merged with the night.

And his target is Uzumaki Kushina.

"Bastard, stop right there!" Upon seeing this, Asuma subconscious grabbed a shuriken and threw it at the opponent.

"Damn, it's too late to form hand seals!" Sōseki pretended to be panic and shouted, but he silently thought in his heart, 'That idiot didn't forget to look at me from the corner of his eye while he was running. Is he afraid that I won't know his intentions?'

'Being 'deceived' by such a poor performance is really an insult to my IQ, but it can also be explained as carelessness.'

Thinking of this, Soseki took the initiative to give a good show.
