Chapter 118: MSIN: Chapter 117
---
A fierce gale of wind rushed towards him, and Guy's right leg slashed horizontally, as if he were going to give Haori a waist-high horizontal cut.
This was a highlight.
Haori wasn't afraid because his body… cough, his movements were agile.
He leaned back, almost folding himself in half.
That's how you get a broken back, a move with high technical requirements. If you break your back badly, then you'll be broken.
Guy's attack naturally missed. Haori propped himself up with his hand, stood up on his hands, and hooked his foot on Guy's shoulder.
His limbs were tense like a bow, and he quickly retreated, pushing off the ground with both hands.
What was annoying about Haori's techniques for his opponents was that it wasn't his killing power that was so strong, but once they got close to him, that Lightning Release made it impossible for them to attack in their own way.
First, I'll give you a course of paralysis, then we'll talk.
Guy could only use his absolute strength to forcibly leave Haori's side.
At this time, the two had been fighting for a long time. They could watch the moon climb together.
The Lightning Release on Haori's body flickered. His chakra was running low. If the battle continued, he would have to switch modes — change to a powerful battery with a power ring attached to the bottom.
After all, this was a sparring match. Haori couldn't kill, so this battle eventually turned into a war of attrition.
During the fight, Haori had countless opportunities to kill. Even if Guy was fast, he could stab him with Chidori or Chidori Sharp Spear and make a hole.
But, of course, he couldn't. Guy wasn't an enemy. Not only that, even with Chidori-style jutsu, he had limitations.
"Can you still open the Fifth Gate?"
Haori asked Guy.
Guy was stunned for a moment, then his head turned, and he understood what Haori meant. "The Fifth Gate can be opened, but I can't open it."
If it were a battle against a comrade, the Fourth Gate was basically the limit. If you opened the Fifth Gate, the Limit Gate… that's absolutely forbidden.
Actually, Guy at this time could barely open the Sixth Gate and use Morning Peacock.
But those techniques really couldn't be used. What would be the difference if he used them compared to Haori using Lightning Blade?
"So, how about we call this a draw? I don't think there's any point in continuing… My chakra won't last much longer."
Haori proposed.
Fundamentally speaking, when ninjas compare who is stronger, it all comes down to who can kill who first.
If you're talking about a sparring match, it always feels like a bit of a performance. After all, by definition, ninjas are still a profession that emphasizes one-hit kills. And it's even better if they can assassinate stealthily, not openly.
In fact, although the two of them seemed to be going back and forth, they were actually holding back.
In this state, Haori couldn't do anything to Guy. But he also had a general understanding of Guy's strength at this time.
The same was true for Guy. Using Inner Lotus was his limit. He couldn't use stronger techniques against Haori. And in fact, he had achieved his goal - his techniques were clearly effective against a ninja like Haori. Ultimate taijutsu might really be the best path for him.
Haori was about to run out of chakra, while Guy was about to reach his body's limit. So, no matter whose perspective you were looking at from, there was no need to continue the fight.
Haori retracted his Lightning Release, and Guy closed his gates.
"It's still your victory, Haori. After all, you didn't use any other jutsu."
Guy might be obsessed with victory and defeat, but he only wanted a fair victory.
"You can't say that. We've both done our best, holding back our strength and with limitations. A draw is a draw. You didn't use all the Eight Inner Gates either."
Haori didn't agree with Guy's statement. This wasn't him comforting Guy. If he had that kind of attitude, it would actually be looking down on the other party.
He said it that way, and he actually thought that way.
Haori wasn't obsessed with victory and defeat… He didn't care about that kind of thing in the first place, so he immediately changed the subject. "But the Chunin Exam is about to start. With the damage that this forbidden technique has done to your body, you probably won't be able to go all out in the exam…"
As soon as he finished saying this, he realized he had said the wrong thing.
Because Guy had regained that smile and was now showing a confident expression, striking a pose and talking about his passionate words.
Haori could guess the first two words!
"Youth is…"
Okay, he guessed right.
...
After enduring Guy's passionate and youthful teachings for a while, Guy left first.
After using the Eight Inner Gates, which injure the user before injuring the opponent, Guy's body was exhausted to a degree that was different from Haori's. He acted as if everything was normal, but it was impossible for him to be unaffected.
Willpower can solve some things, but it can't solve everything. So, Haori didn't have high hopes for Guy's Chunin Exam this time.
Haori began to collect the iron sand using his gourd.
The training ground was in a state of disarray. Hopefully, the people who maintain it regularly will still be able to believe that life is good when they see this scene of complete destruction caused by taijutsu violence.
After collecting it all, Haori put the gourd back on his back. But he didn't rush to leave. Instead, he said to a certain direction, "Third Hokage, can you come out now?"
It sounded like he was shouting into the void.
However, a figure emerged from the shadows, smoking a pipe and wearing a straw hat.
"Hehe, you caught me." The Third Hokage said with a smile.
Third Hokage, you're so busy during the war, and you're still hanging around to watch a show. Is that really okay?
Unfortunately, Haori's eyes couldn't express that meaning so precisely.
In fact, as soon as the battle began, Haori noticed someone had come here. After all, the two of them weren't exactly subtle when they were fighting. If there wasn't a reaction, it would mean that Konoha itself had a problem.
As for whether it was the Third Hokage, Haori was just guessing. But it turned out to be him.
He was here to stop them if they accidentally injured each other. He just didn't expect that although both sides had used powerful techniques, they actually ended up stopping just short of causing any major damage.
That's good.
But the Third Hokage didn't mention that. Instead, he said to Haori, "We've discussed the news you brought back, and we've decided to tell Sunagakure."
So, they're going to treat it as fact?
Haori nodded. It wasn't in vain that he had talked so much.
But that wasn't what he was thinking about now.
He extended one of his arms towards the Third Hokage.
This made the other party a little confused.
"Uh, Doctor…"
The Third Hokage was a bit dumbfounded, then he realized that Haori was calling him that.
In legend, the Third Hokage was a master of all jutsu.
"Do you know medical ninjutsu? I think I've cracked a bone."
He wasn't being polite at all. If the Third Hokage really knew medical ninjutsu, he really wanted the other party to heal him. Anything the Third Hokage knew, he was good at. That's what a legendary talent is.
Haori's eyes stared straight at the Third Hokage…
The Third Hokage's last name is Sarutobi. He's thin and rather short… Huh, isn't that the legendary petite?
Looking at the Hokage's straw hat, and thinking of the word "medical," Haori couldn't help but imagine the straw hat as a Nightingale's hat.
Control your imagination!
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Haori couldn't help but put a pink nurse uniform on the Hokage in his mind.
Then…
Ugh…
