章節 80: Clash of Tactics
The mid-morning sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows across The mid-morning sun hung low in the sky, casting long shadows across the training field. Haruto Takeda stood across from Daichi Uzumaki, the tension between them palpable as they readied themselves for the upcoming sparring match. Today, it was no holds barred—except for Haruto's self-imposed limit of keeping his chakra scalpel in its semi-active state. Fully activating it would be far too dangerous, but he could still use it to his advantage by disrupting Daichi's movements.
Daichi grinned across the field, his posture loose but radiating energy. The Uzumaki's boundless chakra reserves meant he had the upper hand in terms of stamina and raw power. Water jutsu was Daichi's specialty, and while his control wasn't perfect, he could still overwhelm most opponents with sheer force.
"You ready for this, Haruto?" Daichi called out, rolling his shoulders. "No backing down!"
Haruto smirked, settling into his stance. "Always."
With that, the match began.
Daichi's Opening: Water Overwhelms
Daichi didn't waste any time. He weaved through a series of hand signs before slamming his hands down.
"Water Style: Water Bullet Jutsu!"
The air rippled as Daichi unleashed a rapid volley of high-pressure water bullets toward Haruto. It wasn't a high-level technique, but in Daichi's hands, backed by his enormous chakra reserves, it became a relentless barrage.
Haruto's eyes narrowed, already feeling the static charge gathering within his body. He activated his Static Charge Jutsu, sending low levels of electricity pulsing through his muscles. This made him faster, his reflexes sharper.
With a sharp pivot, Haruto dodged the first water bullet and flipped over the second, moving with calculated precision. He had to close the distance. Daichi's chakra advantage meant he could keep spamming ninjutsu, while Haruto would need to rely on his speed and precision.
As he approached, Haruto formed his own hand seals.
"Lightning Style: Lightning Bolt Jutsu!"
A thin bolt of electricity shot from his hand, aiming straight for Daichi. The bolt was smaller than Daichi's attacks but packed a punch, especially since lightning was a natural counter to water.
Daichi barely dodged, but the jolt of electricity nicked his arm, making him wince. "That all you got?"
Haruto's Precision: Chakra Scalpel
Haruto didn't respond, but the flicker of a smile crossed his lips. He used the momentary distraction to close the gap, leaping into close combat. This was where his chakra scalpel came into play.
He flicked his wrist, activating the semi-active chakra scalpel as he aimed for Daichi's arms. The scalpel wouldn't cause deep wounds, but it could still disrupt Daichi's chakra flow, making his movements sluggish.
Daichi felt the impact almost immediately. His arm dropped, tingling with numbness as the chakra disruption spread through his body. Haruto's strikes were precise, each one targeting a chakra point designed to weaken Daichi's ability to form hand signs.
But Daichi wasn't so easily beaten.
"Water Style: Water Spray Jutsu!"
In a quick burst, Daichi spewed a spray of water from his mouth, forcing Haruto to leap back to avoid the jet of liquid. This gave Daichi the time he needed to recover, his arm shaking off the effects of the chakra scalpel.
Uzumaki Resilience: The Power of Stamina
Haruto landed softly on his feet, analyzing the situation. Daichi was stronger and had far more chakra to throw around. He could afford to use ninjutsu continuously, whereas Haruto had to rely on strategy and tactics.
Daichi grinned, wiping his mouth. "You've got those fancy tricks, Haruto, but I've got enough chakra to go all day!"
He charged forward, weaving through another set of hand signs. Haruto's eyes widened slightly as Daichi formed his next attack.
"Water Style: Water Stream Jutsu!"
A focused stream of water shot from Daichi's hands, cutting through the air with incredible force. Haruto moved quickly, using his Static Charge to dart out of the way, but Daichi's jutsu followed his movements, narrowly missing his legs.
Haruto frowned—Daichi had improved. His control over water jutsu was getting better, and combined with his immense chakra reserves, it made him a formidable opponent.
Haruto's Strategy: Lightning Strikes
Haruto knew he couldn't match Daichi in a prolonged exchange of ninjutsu. Daichi's chakra would last longer, and Haruto's reserves were far more limited. He needed to end this fight quickly.
With a focused breath, Haruto channeled more chakra into his hands, feeling the lightning chakra surge through his body. He performed the hand seals for Lightning Bolt Jutsu again, but this time he concentrated on precision rather than power.
As Daichi sent another stream of water toward him, Haruto timed his strike perfectly.
"Lightning Style: Lightning Bolt!"
The bolt shot out, cutting through the water. Lightning and water clashed, the resulting feedback sending a jolt of electricity straight toward Daichi. The water amplified the effect, causing Daichi to stagger as the electricity coursed through his body.
"Gah!" Daichi grunted, his body locking up briefly from the shock.
Haruto moved in, his chakra scalpel semi-active as he aimed a precise strike at Daichi's chest, stopping just short of making contact. His hand hovered in the air, electricity crackling faintly at his fingertips.
"You're done," Haruto said, panting slightly from the exertion.
Daichi blinked, his muscles still twitching from the lightning attack. He looked down at Haruto's hand, realizing how close he had come to losing. Then, to Haruto's surprise, Daichi started laughing.
"Man… you got me! But next time, I'll win for sure!"
A Friendly Rivalry
Haruto let out a small chuckle, dropping his hand and stepping back. Daichi was resilient, just like all Uzumakis. His chakra reserves allowed him to keep fighting longer than most, and while Haruto had won this match, he knew Daichi would come back stronger.
"That was a good fight," Haruto said, rubbing his arm. "You're getting better with water jutsu."
"You too, with that lightning stuff," Daichi replied, stretching his limbs. "But you better watch out. Once I figure out how to use more than just these basics, I'm coming for you!"
Haruto smiled. "I'll be waiting."
The two friends walked back to the training field's edge, their rivalry strong but friendly. Each knew the other's strengths and weaknesses, and their fights were always a balance between Daichi's overwhelming chakra and Haruto's precision and tactics.
But both of them knew one thing for sure: they were pushing each other to new heights.
In this chapter, Haruto and Daichi spar using their F-rank jutsu, relying on their respective affinities and strengths. Daichi, with his large chakra reserves and water affinity, overwhelms with power, while Haruto counters with precision, using his lightning affinity and chakra scalpel in a semi-active state. Their rivalry pushes them both, creating a competitive but friendly dynamic.
