Kaito Chapter 91
author's note: I decided to switch up the match pairings from Hotaru versus Chōjūrō to Atsui versus Hotaru Hyuga, meaning that Yura will now be pitted against Chōjūrō in the first round.
Tekai smirked, thinking he had won. But his victory was short-lived. as the jutsu ended A chilling voice came from behind him, "Too slow." Mangetsu had transformed into water and reappeared behind Tekai. Before Tekai could turn, Mangetsu's blade flashed, decapitating him in one swift, clean motion.
In the waiting arena
Tekai's female teammate Kiko exclaimed his name in horror at their teammate's decapitated opponent. The other Genin from Sunagakure tightened their grip on the railing as they witnessed the gruesome scene.
The arena fell silent, mangetsu took out his water bottle and sip it while walking back to the waiting area. Raido stepped forward, raising his hand to declare the winner. "The match is over! The victor is Mangetsu Hozuki!"
…..
Up in the stands
The entire chunin arena fell into a tense silence as Mangetsu walked off the field, leaving behind the lifeless body of the Suna genin he had just defeated. The crowd, usually eager for the excitement and entertainment of the exams, was suddenly reminded that this was not simply a tournament, but a form of war.
Little Naruto's face twisted in horror as he stood up from his seat, his small fists shaking with anger and sadness. "Why did he have to kill him?" he muttered through gritted teeth. Beside him, Hinata also looked horrified, tears welling up in her eyes at the sight of the dead Suna genin. She closed her eyes and turned away, unable to bear the gruesome scene.
Sasuke's expression shifted from shock to one of seriousness as he took in the reality of death on the battlefield. Shikamaru, too, looked on with horror as he thought to himself, "Is this the life of a shinobi?"
Kushina, who sat behind Naruto, leaned over and pulled him into a comforting hug, whispering soothing words to calm him down. "It's okay, Naruto," she murmured softly.
Hitomi placed a gentle hand on Hinata's shoulder, offering comfort to the shaken little girl. Meanwhile, Yoshino and Mikoto watched their respective sons with worried expressions, knowing that their children were being exposed to the harsh realities of the shinobi world far too early.
Fugaku sat stoically with his hands crossed and eyes closed, his expression unreadable as he spoke grimly. "This is what the shinobi world is, Where the weak are killed by the strong."
Naruto looked down at his tiny fists, shaking with anger and sorrow. "But that isn't fair," he said firmly. "He didn't deserve to die."
Shikaku shook his head sadly and replied, "The world isn't fair, Naruto. The Chunin Exams are a form of war. That's how things have always been."
Determination flashed in Naruto's eyes as he declared, "Well then, I'll change how things are!"
But Fugaku only shook his head again, dismissing Naruto's words as impossible. Kaito, sitting on the bench beside Fugaku, placed a comforting hand on Naruto's head and smiled reassuringly at him. "Naruto," he said kindly, "it may be hard to change the world, but it's not impossible. And if anyone can do it, I believe you can." His smile was warm and full of faith. "Remember, we become shinobi to protect those we care about and to strive for a better future."
Naruto looked up at Kaito, his eyes shining with determination once again. "Thank you, Kaito-nii-san," he said, his voice now steady with resolve.
In the waiting area
Mangetsu strolled back into the waiting area. As he took a casual sip of water, Kaito caught a glimpse of him from the corner of his eye and couldn't help but think, " If i remember correctly he was called 'The Second Coming of the Demon". He's fully embraced the Mist Village's ruthless philosophy, just like Zabuza." Hotaru and Itachi stood nearby, their faces impassive as he already accepted the possibility of death in the chunin exams.
As Mangetsu made his way towards his teammate, he passed by the remaining Suna genin who glared at him with hatred. One female genin even shouted out, "You bastard! You didn't have to kill him, you monster!" She attempted to rush towards Mangetsu but was quickly stopped by her fellow Suna genin, Yura. "Kiko," Yura said sternly, "as much as I want to kill that bastard for what he did to Tekai, we can't start a fight here. It will reflect poorly on our village."
Mangetsu glanced at them from the corner of his eye and spoke with a cold tone. "Act like shinobi. This is not a game. As the Hokage said, the chunin exams are a substitute for war. If you cannot handle it, then perhaps you should quit." Without even glancing back at them he walked over to Chojuro.
Chojuro nervously looked around, sensing the tense atmosphere in the air.
Back on the field
Meanwhile, on the field, Raido signaled for the medic team to come forward and announced loudly, "The winner of the second match is Mangetsu Hozuki!" Some in the crowd cheered while others remained silent.
As they carried away the lifeless body of the Suna genin, Raido cleared his throat and continued, "The next participants for the third match are Atsui from Kumogakure and Hotaru Hyuga. Please come down."
In the waiting area
In the waiting area, Team 11 leaned against the railing and watched as the medics gently placed the deceased Suna Genin on a stretcher. They listened intently as Raido summoned Hotaru and Atsui to battle.
Hearing her name being called, Hotaru smiled confidently and said, "It's my turn now."
Kaito grinned and ruffled her hair affectionately. "I know you don't need it, but I'll still wish you good luck," he said. Leaning in closer, he added with a mischievous glint in his eye, "Just remember not to go too hard on him. He may be from Kumo, but he's not the one giving orders." Kaito knew that Hotaru held some resentment towards Kumo after her kidnapping attempt and then demanded her father's head. With a small laugh, he added, "But that being said, go kick his butt, Hotaru-chan. And don't take too long. ya know"
Standing beside Kaito, Itachi gave Hotaru a small nod of encouragement and said" Good luck, Hotaru".
Hotaru nodded determinedly and replied, "Hai, I'll do my best." With a graceful leap off of the waiting area, she landed gracefully on the arena floor.
up in the stands
In the stands, Kushina, Hitomi, Naruto, and Hinata perked up at the sound of Hotaru's name being called. Naruto immediately began cheering for her as she made her way onto the field. "Come on Hotaru-nee, kick his butt!" he yelled enthusiastically.
Kushina joined in, shouting encouraging words to her daughter. "Do your best Hotaru-chan!"
Hitomi whispered worriedly to Kushina, "I know Hotaru-chan is strong, but I can't help but worry. These matches are turning out to be more brutal than expected."
Kushina smiled reassuringly and replied, "She will be fine. She's very strong from what I have heard. And even if she was in danger, do you think Kai-kun would let anything happen to her? He is fiercely protective over her. ya know"
Hitomi smiled, feeling comforted by Kushina's words as they watched their daughter take her position on the field.
Hinata also smiled proudly, quietly cheering for her older sister. "Good luck Hotaru-nee," she whispered.
Hiashi's eyes were intensely focused on the match, his expression unreadable. He had no doubt in Hotaru's abilities.
Back on the field
As Hotaru and Atsui arrived, they stood facing each other with a small distance between them. Atsui's neck-length blond hair was styled in an asymmetrical bowl cut, framing his sharp features and piercing green eyes. He appeared to be about a year older than Hotaru, his confident stance exuding strength and power. (In Cannon Atsui is younger than Itachi)
"Are you Hotaru Hyuga?" Atsui asked, his gaze fixed on her. "I've been hoping to fight you ever since I heard your name."
Hotaru tilted her head slightly, intrigued by his boldness. "Why is that?"
A smirk formed on Atsui's lips as he replied, "To test if you're as strong as my sister says you are."
Confusion crossed Hotaru's face as she asked, "Your sister?"
Atsui nodded confidently. "It seems you've forgotten. My sister's name is Samui. You and your team fought against her two years ago."
Realization dawned on Hotaru as she remembered the blonde girl named Samui who had been their opponent during their first C-ranked mission in the Land of Iron. "Ah, I remember now," she said.
Atsui's smirk widened. "My sister has said that you were one of the toughest opponents she ever faced. I couldn't resist the opportunity to see for myself just how strong you are."
Hotaru met his gaze with determination. "I won't disappoint you then."
Raido looked at them both and asked if they were ready. Upon receiving their nods, he gave a sign with his hand and said, "Hajime!" he jumped back to signal the start of the fight.
As soon as Raido began the fight, Atsui rushed towards Hotaru at full speed, his sword drawn and ready for a strike. Hotaru reacted quickly by jumping back and blocking his sword strike with a kunai before parrying the blow. The two continued to exchange blows, each one counting and deflecting the other's attacks with precision.
Growing frustrated, Atsui jumped back and slashed out with a wide arc of his blade, calling out "Cloud-Style Crescent Moon Beheading" as a wide arc appeared in front of him. However, Hotaru was able to jump up and avoid the slash, deftly deflecting the swing with her kunai before it was sliced through by Atsui's chakra-infused blade.
Examining her now-sliced kunai, Hotaru thought to herself, "That technique uses chakra to sharpen the blade." Without missing a beat, she dropped the damaged weapon and took on a gentle fist stance.
Atsui rushed back at Hotaru once again, slashing at her horizontally with his sword in an attempt to cleave her in half. But Hotaru easily side-stepped the strike and shot out her palm towards Atsui. He managed to block it with the hilt of his blade just in time, the two of them continuing to exchange strikes. Hotaru utilized her gentle fist techniques, using her palms to slightly deflect Atsui's blade with precise movements.
The two engaged in a fast-paced exchange of strikes, Hotaru utilizing her gentle fist techniques to precisely deflect Atsui's sword strikes.
As they continued to fight, two clones of Atsui suddenly appeared around Hotaru, surrounding her from all sides. Without hesitation, they jumped into the air and called out their move, "Reverse Mist Beheading." All three of them swung their swords at Hotaru simultaneously, but she remained calm and focused. she activated her Byakugan and surrounded her body with chakra. As the swords were about to strike her, she expelled the chakra and rotated on the spot, creating a dome of rotating chakra around her while muttering "Eight Trigrams Rotation."
the swords collided with the chakra dome and were repelled, sending Atsui and his clones flying and dispersing them in the process. Atsui himself was flung off his feet and landed hard on the ground, spitting out blood from the impact. He struggled to stand up on shaky legs but refused to give up.
As the Eight Trigrams Rotation ended, Hotaru took her stance and declared, "You are within my divination." Before Atsui could react, she struck him twice with precise strikes "two palms". She then continued with "four palms," "eight palms," and "sixteen palms, " calling out the technique's name "Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms." Her arms moved in a blur as she delivered 32 strikes with blinding speed, each one hitting Atsui with incredible speed.
As the move ended with a final palm strike to his stomach, Atsui was sent flying through the air, crashing onto the ground with a thud. He struggled to get up but ultimately fell back down in defeat. Hotaru stood victorious, her Byakugan still activated as she looked down at her opponent.
