Chương 64: Chapter 64 : Shika Vs Sasuke 10
"If I can't even beat a slacker like him, how can I ever be able to kill that man?" Gritting his teeth, Sasuke suppressed the pain. All he was thinking about was killing that man; that was his source of motivation.
'Itachi killed his parents and his entire clan. He was the same age as I am when he did it.
So why…
Why am I so weak?
Why…
Why…
Why…

Just when the proctor was about to announce the result, a sound came from where the ceiling had fallen, making everyone snap back to that spot, and Shika internally had a bad feeling about it.
From beneath the rubble, stones shifted and crumbled away, and suddenly, Sasuke emerged. His body was battered, his clothes torn, but his eyes—those piercing Sharingan—were still flaring with intensity. He looked more feral, more dangerous, as if the collapse had only fueled his rage.
To some degree, he looked more like a demon than a human, as his hair was a little longer now and no longer black but gray, and his white skin was now a little dark.
He no longer had those black markings spreading on his skin anymore; in fact, he had entirely changed to a certain degree.
Others didn't understand, but Shika did.
'Stage 2'
His eyes were wide, his mind working overtime to understand what was going on. Sasuke's current look was much like the second stage of the curse mark shown in the anime.
But Shika, after calming down, realized that it wasn't entirely the second stage yet. Neither were his eyes completely dark nor his looks that much different from base Sasuke. Only one side of his body was darkened, and there was no star mark in the middle of his face.
More than anything, he didn't have those wing-like things on his back. Shika could tell that Sasuke was stronger now but not that strong.
"Partial stage 2 transformation," Shika muttered under his breath. Now things were really getting troublesome.
The crowd gasped in shock. Most of the Genin, watching from the sidelines, couldn't believe their eyes. Kiba and Ino exchanged worried glances, while Hinata covered her mouth, her eyes wide with fear. Even Neji, usually calm and composed, narrowed his eyes, sensing the dangerous power emanating from Sasuke.
On the balcony, the Jonin were tense. Kakashi's expression was unreadable, but his eyes showed how much he just wanted to end this match right now.
'The fuck, what kind of plot armour is this you third-rate author, I know you lack imagination but FUCKK, fuck you and this stupid fic,' Shika cursed after seeing the proctor.
The proctor hesitated, his gaze flickering between Shika and Sasuke. By Sasuke's looks alone, he could tell that he shouldn't let this match continue, but…
He turned back to the Hokage, who didn't say anything…
He sighed and moved back, not planning to interfere in this fight for the time being but ready to take action as soon as possible.
It's not like Hiruzen wasn't planning on stopping the fight; it's just that he was too distracted right now by Sasuke's transformation to say anything.
Orochimaru, on the side, showed a delightfully crazy smile. After all, out of all the people here, he was the only one who knew the curse seal best. This was indeed the partial stage 2 transformation.
'Ku ku ku ku… You are indeed the perfect vessel for me, Sasuke-kun. Others need mind-awakening pills to even achieve this stage, and you can partially achieve this all by yourself.
Now I'm looking more and more forward to taking your body.'
Karin, too, was watching this fight from the start, and all this time, she was internally cheering for Shika. But when Shika started to lose, she kind of lost hope. But then she was amazed at how Shika turned that situation around with proper planning and captured his opponent in his trap.
Though she had to say that the boy he was fighting with was handsome, she rather cheered for Shika, who saved her life, than a nobody. All the girls were cheering for that boy anyway.
And when she thought that Shika had won this match, that boy once again came out of the trap, and this time he looked even more inhuman for some reason.
Shika cursed internally, his mind racing to figure out a way to beat Sasuke. But unfortunately for him, Sasuke wasn't planning on giving him time to think this time around.
Sasuke came out of that rubble with only one thought in mind: winning. To do that, he would do anything he had to.
"I will win, I'll not lose," Sasuke roared.
"That's fine, just let me win," Shika again tried asking nicely. Maybe this time it would work?
The next second, Sasuke was rushing at him.
"Maybe not."
Shika's eyes narrowed as he tried to assess the situation, but there was no time to think. Sasuke moved faster than Shika could react, closing the distance in an instant. Before Shika could even raise his arms to defend himself, Sasuke's fist slammed into his stomach, sending him crashing into the wall.
The impact was brutal, knocking the wind out of Shika. He tried to push himself up, but Sasuke was already on him, delivering a flurry of punches and kicks. Each blow was precise and devastating, leaving Shika no room to counterattack. It was as if Sasuke was toying with him, overwhelming him with sheer speed and strength.
He didn't even had time to make hand sigh to bring his Ten Shadow. It was clear that the fight has gone beyond his current capabilites.
And now he had to use his Ten Shadow's if he desire to win, of course he can always accept his lost but that wasn't an option if he needed to promoted to Chunin and get System Reward.
'Maybe I should have just blown him up with those explosions.' Shika gritted his teeth as he tried to hold on and block, desperately trying to use his shadow techniques, but Sasuke was too quick. Every time Shika was ready to move his shadow to buy him some time by capturing the lost demon child, Sasuke was already there, interrupting him with another punishing strike. It was a one-sided beatdown, and Shika knew he was in trouble.
The onlookers watched in stunned silence as Sasuke continued his relentless assault. Even the other Genin, who had been confident in their own skills, was taken aback by the sheer brutality of the fight. Shikamaru's brow furrowed in concern; Shika would be happy to know that at least there was someone looking after him and worrying for him.
Well, there were Kurenai and Hinata and others, but when you are getting a one-sided beating like this, it's very easy to believe that you are alone.
Shika's vision blurred as he struggled to stay conscious. His body screamed in pain with every hit, but his reverse curse energy was fixing him just as fast, and no matter what he tried, Sasuke was always one step ahead, like the Uchiha knew that he couldn't give Shika time to think.
This was the point when finally the Hokage and others were ready to end the battle. Testing out their powers and strategies was fine, but still, they couldn't let this go on anymore.
