The room grew tense as the names lit up on the board:
[Rock Lee vs Gaara of the Sand]
A gust of dry air swept through the room as Gaara silently descended the stairs. Across from him, Rock Lee stood tall the match begun as lee was in no sense a match for gaara
Gaara manipulated his sand and smacked him hard
removing his leg weights with a loud thud that cracked the floor.
The crowd blinked in surprise. Even Haruto narrowed his eyes.
"He's faster than he looks," he muttered.
The proctor raised his hand.
"Begin!"
In a flash, Lee disappeared from sight.
BOOM—
Gaara's eyes widened for the first time as Lee's punch cracked his sand armor, sending him sliding back. The entire room gasped.
From above—another kick.
From behind—a spinning sweep.
Lee's speed was unnatural. His movements blurred into a green hurricane as he assaulted Gaara from every direction. Even Haruto whistled.
"That's pure taijutsu mastery..."
But just as Lee went for a direct strike, Gaara's sand shield autonomously blocked, catching his wrist mid-air.
"My sand protects me… whether I want it or not." Gaara's calm voice echoed.
Lee struggled, then pulled free. Gai-sensei clenched his fist at the railing above.
"Lee... it's time."
Lee nodded—and suddenly the air shifted.
He removed his arm guards and entered the First Gate.
"Gate of Opening—Open!"
The ground cracked. Lee vanished again.
This time, his strike broke through Gaara's defense, slamming the Sand Genin into the wall.
The audience erupted.
But Gaara stood, bleeding—but not panicking. His face twisted into something...dark.
"Enough," he muttered, lifting a hand.
Suddenly, sand swarmed around Lee like snakes. Despite his speed, it gripped his ankle—
"Sand Coffin!"
Lee's eyes widened, but he twisted mid-air and slipped free just before the pressure hit. The audience held its breath.
"I can't stop him like this..." Gai whispered.
Lee stood, panting, but determined.
"Gate of Healing—Open!"
"Gate of Life—Open!"
With a surge of chakra and steam erupting from his skin, Lee darted forward—
And unleashed Leaf Lotus, hurling Gaara in the air before crashing him into the ground with terrifying force.
BOOM—
Dust flew. Silence.
But then... movement.
Sand swirled. Gaara rose, floating in a protective cocoon. Unharmed.
Lee, now exhausted, tried to move—
But Gaara raised his hand.
"Sand Coffin..."
Before the crushing finale could land, Gai-sensei appeared like a flash and blocked it, holding Lee protectively.
"That's enough." The proctor ended the match, sweat dripping from his temple.
Gaara wins.
Lee, unconscious but standing even in defeat, left a silence in the room. No one laughed. No one mocked. Even Sasuke and Haruto looked at him with a strange respect.
"That...wasn't just a genin," Naruto spoke as haruto replied in a whisper. "That was a warrior."
"Warrior? Not a ninja?" Naruto questioned but it was left on hold
As the screen buzzed:
[Haruto Uzumaki vs. Yoroi Akadō]
Naruto smacked Haruto's shoulder and spoke, "Show them who's boss!"
Sasuke just smirked, looking forward to the battle.
Haruto stepped into the arena as a girl also appeared before him.
She had a slender waist, apparently her breasts were B cup, and with those black hair cascading down—
It would be perfect to obliterate her into obedience.
Then everyone started encouraging Haruto, as they still thought he was weak.
Many teams didn't realize... that Haruto was stronger than all of them combined.
"Begin!"
Yoroi didn't waste time. She lunged forward—hand glowing, aimed straight at Haruto's chest.
"Oh? Chakra absorption?"
As soon as her glowing palm hit Haruto, she was repelled back by some kind of red chakra oozing out and disappearing in a second.
"Such a nasty trick, Akadō."
Then, she rushed again.
But this time, Haruto used body flicker.
Yoroi stopped in her tracks and looked around. "Where—" Her words were cut short as someone spoke:
"Behind youuu," Haruto whispered in her ear. Then he thrust a kunai toward her neck, which was thrown back by her palm hitting Haruto's.
Haruto then slammed his palm into her chest, sending her stumbling back.
Akadō spat blood and turned with rage.
This scene made everyone gasp:
"Whoa... he's so strong!"
"Yeah... with just one strike, he made his opponent draw blood!"
"Amazing."
Then, Yoroi, in anger, threw seven shuriken aimed at Haruto.
Haruto took out his sword, and in a deadly arc swing, he deflected all of them as he vanished again right after.
"No... you bastard! Where are you hiding?!"
"Oh, he got a good match."
"Yeah... seems like they both swear a lot."
"Be confident in my brother. He does swear a loooot," Naruto spoke.
When Yoroi couldn't pinpoint Haruto's location, she grew frustrated and pulled out a scroll.
She activated it, and a chakra-absorbing smoke bomb went off in place. It was a thick violet mist that made it harder to see what was happening.
"Trying to limit my vision? Heh, you just made the biggest mistake anyone can."
Then, a purple concentric ring pattern appeared in his eyes.
'Rinnegan.'
Then, from who knows where, ten Harutos appeared. Seeing this, Yoroi was confused.
"What... how come there are this many?... Am I in a genjutsu?" She tried to dispel the genjutsu but couldn't.
When the clones neared her, she swung her sword blindly.
The clones dispersed as she stood confused—but not for long, as the real Haruto grabbed her from behind and slammed her headfirst into the floor.
Crack.
Yoroi groaned, blood leaking from her forehead.
'Maybe I was a bit rough?' Haruto thought, feeling a bit guilty.
But once more, he was surprised by the audacity of the girl.
She swung her sword from the ground up, hitting his ankles with a deep gash.
The blood overflowed from his ankle as he collapsed.
Haruto looked at her in anger as many clones appeared in the vicinity, all of them laying on their butts before vanishing into puffs of smoke.
Haruto's Rinnegan activated again and sent her flying into a wall.
Her knees were bleeding, her head was fully covered in blood.
"T... The winner of the match is Haruto Uzumaki!"
...
