Chapter 79
The Match Ends
"First match, Naruto Uzumaki VS Neji Hyuga, begin!"
Whoosh!
With the referee's whistle...
Neji stomped his foot, and his entire body shot out like an arrow.
The Gentle Fist, carrying a sharp gust of wind pressure, aimed directly at Naruto's pressure points.
There was no probing as the audience had anticipated.
Almost instantly, the two figures collided.
Bang bang bang!
The muffled thuds of fists and feet colliding were as dense as rain.
To the surprise of all the viewers, especially Hiashi Hyuga,
Faced with Neji, who possessed the Byakugan and Gentle Fist, Naruto Uzumaki not only failed to create distance before using ninjutsu,
Instead, they chose to confront physical techniques head-on!
"madness……"
Neji snorted coldly, his Byakugan locking onto Naruto's meridians.
"You dare to fight the Hyuga clan in taijutsu? You're courting death."
However, after dozens of rounds, Neji's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Good weight!
Every punch and kick from Naruto was delivered without any fancy moves.
It's just a matter of overwhelming numerical superiority.
Most importantly, Naruto seemed to be able to predict his movements.
Each acupoint strike was avoided by the slightest margin.
Or use a more aggressive attack to force Neji to retreat and defend.
"If this is all the ability you have..."
Naruto blocked Neji's palm strike with one hand, his gaze calm as still water.
"No wonder they keep complaining about their fate."
"Shut up!"
A fierce glint flashed in Neji's eyes as he was provoked.
He keenly noticed a fleeting opening on Naruto's left side.
It's now!
The Bagua Domain beneath Neji's feet instantly expanded, and his aura suddenly changed.
"Gentle Fist Technique: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"
In an instant, that confident air of being in control returned to his face.
"Two palm strikes!" "Four palm strikes!" "Eight palm strikes!"...
Neji's hands blurred into afterimages, his fingertips spewing out chakra like a torrential downpour.
Naruto, however, did not seem to dodge Neji's attack.
His body was like a wooden stake, allowing Neji's fingers to relentlessly stab at the pressure points all over his body.
Bang bang bang!
In the stands, Hiashi Hyuga, witnessing this scene, relaxed his previously furrowed brows.
He leaned back in his chair and let out a cold snort.
"it's over."
"After being struck by sixty-four palms, no one can stand up again."
This confidence stems from one of the two pillars of the Hyuga clan.
The final, powerful blow landed on Naruto's chest.
"Sixty-four palm strikes!"
Neji exhaled and gracefully took two steps back.
Naruto staggered backward, his body swaying twice before he knelt on one knee.
Seeing that Naruto's chakra had been completely sealed, Neji withdrew his Byakugan:
"See? This is reality."
"No matter how aggressive you were just now, you are still powerless against me."
"I have sealed all sixty-four of your chakra points."
"Right now, I probably don't even have the strength to stand up."
Neji turned around and looked at Genma Shiranui, preparing to face his victory head-on:
"Referee, it's over."
"No matter how hard mortals try, they cannot overcome..."
Click.
A crisp sound of bones realigning rang out, interrupting Neji's remarks.
Neji turned around abruptly, his pupils contracting sharply.
Naruto, who had been kneeling on one knee, slowly stood up.
He twisted his neck, making a series of popping sounds.
Then he gently patted the spot where he had just been hit.
"Is this the Gentle Fist? The power is not bad."
Naruto pushed up his glasses, his tone so calm it was infuriating:
"Neji-senpai, Gentle Fist does have a good control effect for the average person."
"but……"
"I don't belong to the category of ordinary people."
Before he could finish speaking...
A powerful surge of chakra, visible to the naked eye, erupted from Naruto's body like a torrent!
It's not the kind of chakra filled with hatred like that of the Nine-Tails.
Rather, it was the immense life force of the Uzumaki clan and the spiritual energy provided by Sasuke Uchiha.
Then, it is mixed with natural energy purified by the curse seal, and together they form chakra.
Neji's prized pressure point sealing technique was forcibly shattered by this overwhelming torrent of chakra.
"How is that possible!"
Neji's pupils contracted violently.
In his clairvoyant vision, the chakra he himself used to seal pressure points was almost powerless against him.
Even the meridian damage caused by his soft fist is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a moment, there was no trace of injury left.
In the stands.
Hiashi Hyuga, who had been expressionless, suddenly crushed the armrest in his hand.
He abruptly stood up, his expression somewhat out of control:
"How is this possible! He actually broke through the Gentle Fist's blockade simply by relying on the amount of chakra..."
"So this is... the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Not only Hiashi Hyuga, but even Jonin like Kakashi and Asuma,
Even the Third Hokage, who was sitting in the main seat, showed a shocked expression.
The Gentle Fist, which the Hyuga clan is so proud of, was broken so easily.
No, it's not something to be taken lightly.
Even if you know the method, not everyone has Naruto's chakra and physique.
In the field.
Naruto flexed his wrists, glanced at Neji who looked utterly bewildered, and a slight smile played on his lips:
"Since you enjoy sealing away other people's power..."
"Perfect timing! I happen to know some sealing techniques as well. I hope you can give me your feedback, Neji-senpai."
Whoosh.
Naruto's figure vanished in an instant.
Pure physical speed.
Neji was shocked and tried to use the Rejuvenation Technique, but he was still a step too late.
A hand had already passed through his defenses.
Five fingers, their tips burning with a ghostly blue chakra, were pressed heavily onto Neji's abdomen.
"Five Elements Seal!"
Unlike acupressure, which blocks acupoints.
The sealing technique directly interfered with the overall condensation of chakra.
Neji felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Then the flow of chakra within his body instantly became chaotic.
"Ughhhh!"
Neji screamed in agony, his legs gave way, and he collapsed to his knees before Naruto.
The outcome is decided.
Naruto looked down at Neji, who was kneeling before him, his face covered in cold sweat.
Instead of continuing the attack, he said calmly:
"In the face of absolute power, all your theories... are utterly worthless."
The entire room fell silent.
One second, two seconds.
Then, Genma Shiranui took a deep breath, snapping out of his shock, and raised his hand:
"The victor is Naruto Uzumaki!"
Whoosh—!
Cheers erupted.
The nobles clapped excitedly, cheering for this wonderful plot twist.
The common people chanted the name of genius.
In their view, this was just a brilliant comeback.
But Naruto ignored the noise.
He stood in the center of the field, neither leaving nor basking in the joy of victory.
He slowly raised his head and glanced at a certain "dark unit" on the stage, as well as the "Wind Shadow" at the highest point.
A slow smile crept onto Naruto's lips.
"Rejoice! Rejoice to your heart's content!"
"Because I will bring you... a whole new world."
And so, amidst the cheers of the crowd and the gratified gaze of the Third Hokage,
He slowly raised his hand and made a grabbing motion towards the sky.
At first, no one understood what Naruto meant.
A few seconds later, the cheering crowd suddenly felt their eyelids grow heavy.
In the sky, a few pure white feathers suddenly drifted down slowly.
Naruto looked at Neji lying on the ground and left behind his last words from the old era:
"Neji, watch closely."
"How to defy fate... I'll only demonstrate it once!"
boom!
A loud bang came from the walls of Konoha in the distance.
The plan to destroy the ninja world begins.
