Amidst the muffled sound of fists and feet intersecting, the two figures stepped away.
This is a remote training ground, and the two people in the field are Shinji and Shiro who are practicing martial arts.
Seeing that his offensive was neutralized again, Shinji frowned slightly.
After these days of sparring, he can clearly feel that he is making progress, but no matter how much he improves, Bai always gives him the illusion that he can win if he works harder!
As a result, he was repulsed again and again.
"Try the breathing method!" After making up his mind, Shinji looked at Bai: "Be careful, I'm going to use my full strength this time!"
Bai nodded cooperatively, his face full of solemnity.
"Full focus!"
call...
After exhaling, Shinji dodged and punched straight towards Shiro's face.
"!"
A trace of surprise flashed in Byaku's eyes, as if he didn't expect Shinji's speed to suddenly become so fast.
Bang bang bang...
In an instant, the two of them exchanged four or five punches.
Every time Shinji punched out, there was mist coming out of his mouth. Each move seemed to be following a certain rhythm, and his speed and strength were greatly improved compared to before.
This made Bai very uncomfortable, and he showed a rare panic.
call...
With another breath of light, Shinji's speed increased again, his body swayed, he circled behind Shiro, and then swept out with a side leg!
But the moment his side leg hit Shiro, with a 'swish' sound, Shiro jumped up quickly, not only avoiding Shinji's side leg, but also lightly tapping Shinji's side leg with his toes, using his strength to turn back and fight back.
Hit Shinji with a kick.
"this!?"
Shinji was taken aback and had no time to change his moves to dodge, so he could only barely raise his arms to protect his vitals.
Bang...
With a muffled sound, Shinji was knocked back again, and the rhythm of his breathing was also disrupted.
Feeling the slight numbness on his arm, Shinji curled his lips: "Shiro, the strength of your leg is wrong, are you giving in to me?"
Bai Qing gasped: "Shinji-san, it's already very difficult to parry your attack. I don't have the energy to let you go on purpose."
Shinji waved his arms to relieve the pain: "You are just letting me."
Shiro did not continue to explain, but walked to the sidelines and handed Shinji a bottle of water: "Shinji-san, let's take a break."
Shinji took the water and drank it silently.
He knew that Bai was keenly aware of the limits of his physical strength, and not only secretly lowered the intensity of the confrontation, but also took the initiative to ask for rest to take care of his face.
After sorting through the previous fight, Shinji confirmed that the 'breathing method' significantly helped the physical skills.
Without using the 'breathing method', based on his basic physical skills, Diao Bai cannot pose any threat at all.
And once the 'breathing method' is used, even if it's only a half-baked practice for two weeks, it can obviously create some trouble for Bai.
"The use of water breathing is still not proficient enough, and the rhythm is easily disrupted."
Shinji secretly reviewed.
Bai on the side took a sip of water and asked casually: "Shinji-san, can I ask, why are you still practicing so hard when you are obviously very powerful?"
Shinji cursed in his heart: "I said it was to protect the ninja world, do you believe it?"
Who knows what will invade the ninja world next, so he doesn't dare to slack off.
Seeing Shinji's silence, Shiro asked tentatively: "Is it because of that person? He...why would he do such a thing?"
Shinji glanced at Shiro, then looked back: "I don't know either."
What Shiro was referring to was, of course, Uchiha Itachi, who massacred the entire clan.
It's not surprising that he has such doubts.
Because many people in the village have the same doubts, no one understands why Uchiha Itachi, the young clan leader, wanted to destroy his own family with his own hands.
But Shinji had an intuition that Shiro cared too much about him and the Uchiha clan, although Shiro hid this very well.
the next day.
"What, the Chunin Exam?"
Shinji in the classroom was a little surprised.
On the podium, Teacher Iruka was still talking about the various arrangements for the Ninja School during the upcoming Chuunin Exams.
To put it simply, students in lower grades like Shinji are going on vacation.
When he mentioned the Chunin Exam, Shinji subconsciously thought of Naruto's Chunin Exam in the original book.
But in fact, the Chunin Examinations are held every three years.
There are also large and small scales.
Like Naruto's time, the scale was very large, but under normal circumstances, the scale would be smaller.
The venue does not have to be in Konoha Village. All villages that have an alliance or cooperative relationship with Konoha are in principle qualified to host the Chunin Examination.
"Great, I can take a vacation!"
"I heard that many villages will send people to participate this time."
"Isn't that a good show?"
The students were all smiling, just like a village holding a festival.
In fact, the Chuunin Exam is no different from a festival. Villagers in the village can buy tickets to watch the finals.
After leaving the ninja school, Shinji and Shiro wandered around the streets.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the distance.
Shinji looked around and saw a team coming towards the end of the street. In the center of the team was a gorgeous carriage.
Bai Ya looked over: "It seems to be a symbol of the Kingdom of Demons. Will the miko of the Demon Kingdom also attend this chunin exam?"
Shinji's expression froze: "Miko from the Kingdom of Ghosts?"
Bai said: "Well, the person in the carriage is probably the miko from the Kingdom of Ghosts."
"Why did she come to Konoha? Could it be that my illusion has been lifted?" Shinji, who was secretly frightened, looked at the direction of the Demon Country team and thought, "Is this going to the Hokage Building?"
Seeing that Shinji's face looked a little ugly, Shiro asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Shinji shook his head and left the street.
Even if he knew that Shion's presence in Konoha at this moment was extremely abnormal, he couldn't take any action.
This is the central area of Konoha, only a few streets away from the Hokage Building. Any action he takes may lead to unpredictable consequences.
The only thing he can do now is to pray that Ziyuan has not lifted the psychological suggestion he has imposed.
Shinji spent the day in anxiety.
There were no Anbu who came to control him that day, and there were no rumors about him or the Mangekyou Sharingan. It was as if the arrival of the miko from the Demon Country had nothing to do with him.
Later that day, the teams from Sunagakure Village, Kusakunin Village, Amegakure Village, Takinin Village, and Kirigakure Village arrived in Konoha one after another.
After hearing the news, Shinji was full of doubts.
In my impression, the relationship between Konoha and Kirigakure was very tense, and Kirigakure seemed to have never sent anyone to take part in Konoha's chunin exams.
There were obviously more people sent by other ninja villages than usual.
"It seems that taking the Chunin Exam is a fake. Verifying the rumors that the Uchiha clan was exterminated is the purpose of these villages."
After thinking about it for a while, he figured out why these ninja villages were so active in sending people to participate in this chunin exam.
You must know that the Uchiha clan is a wealthy family that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years. Before the establishment of major ninja villages, the Uchiha clan was already at the top of the ninja world.
Therefore, the news that Uchiha was exterminated was a bombshell to the entire ninja world.
In the evening, Shinji did not relax and continued to drag Shiro to practice taijutsu with him.
During the break, he wiped his sweat with a towel and asked casually: "Why does the Kingdom of Demons send people to take the Chunin Exam? They also have Ninja Villages?"
Bai shook his head: "I've never heard of a ninja village in the land of ghosts."
"Then what is the purpose of the ghost country miko coming to the village?"
Bai smiled and said: "I'm not sure, but I heard that the miko from the Kingdom of Ghosts spent a day in the village and visited many shops."
"oh."
Shinji responded, thoughtfully.
rustle...
Suddenly, there was a sound in the bushes beside the practice field.
Shinji and Shiro looked over.
I saw a figure emerging from the bushes.
She was small, wearing a gorgeous dress, her mouth was bulging as if she was chewing something, and she was holding a bunch of three-color meatballs in her hand.
Aster!?
Shinji was shocked and recognized the other party's identity.
The figure that hurriedly emerged from the grass was none other than the miko from the Kingdom of Ghosts whom he had just talked to Shiro about.
Shion didn't seem to expect that there would be anyone in such a remote place. She made a gesture of hissing at Shinji and Shiro, then picked up the dress and prepared to sneak away.
But after taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped, tilted her head and ran to Shinji, staring at him: "You..." This chapter has been completed!
