Chapter-89: Sign of Negativity
"Hmm... So the day of our wait ends today ha?"
The man commented while sitting into the seat of the spectators of the White Moon National tournament.
"You were too impatient for this day. If you cannot finish this mission Lord Gem will get unsatisfied on you."
The man who was sitting beside him said.
"Do not worry. This academy is nothing but puny insect to me. Even if three puny powerhouses like this academy face me, they couldn't give any scratch on my cloth."
The first man said with confidence.
"Lord knows that well. It's not this academy he is carefully on, it's just those two guys. One of them is Divine Emperor of the Western Dragon palace. Another one is the man who proclaimed himself as Madara, the same Madara who annihilated the whole Northern Dragon palace."
The second guy warns him.
The first guy touched his right hand and said,
"Of course I know that. But I have trust in this right hand of mine. The hand of a god."
Like normal humans, he doesn't have the hand that made of flesh, instead of a crystal hand. It was a transparent crystal hand.
"Well, this mission is up to you I am nothing but a mere spectator. Lord order me to not to assist you. I will have to deliver him solid news whether you fail or succeed."
The second guy said. He also has a unique trait. That is crystal eye, the same material that was made of the crystal hand of the first man.
"Hmph! I know, I know."
The crystal hand guy said.
--------------------
While these two guys were talking with each other, Naruto's team was ready to fight their first match.
For a while now Naruto having a bad premonition. There is sign negativity but he cannot pinpoint where it is coming from it was like they were hiding it deliberately.
Naruto was keeping eye on everywhere.
"Hey, Naruto let's go to the field. We are being called in the arena."
Ikuse slap Naruto's back seeing he has no attention on their upcoming battle.
"Yea let us go."
The rule of the match is five players of each group will face five players of the opponent group. There is two type of head to head game in this tournament. One is playing blindly, where the player will fight at the same time without seeing the result of their comrade. And another one is strategical, one player will play with only one player, and the most head to head winning team out of five-match will be chosen as the winner. But in the strategical game if the result is 3-0 from the first 3 one on one battles then there is no need to play the last 2 one on one battles because the winner is already decided. However, in the blind game, you have to play all five games because you don't know who will be the winner. By the way, the rest four players of the nine-player team who do not play the match will remain as a reserve player for the next match because a team has to play three or more matches in a day, so for avoiding physical injury and mental fatigue this type of measure was taken.
Their first match was a blind one. In this match the selected five players are, Valentina, Ikuse, Leo, Rita and Naruto in another word top five of the gold core student list.
Their opponent is Augustin Academy. This academy is an underdog academy that has qualify for the main stage fourth time in the history of National tournament.
Everyone knows the result beforehand who will be the victor but it is not like students of Augustin academy will give up at this stage instead they will do their best to manifest their best to steal the attention from onlookers.
When everyone chooses their opponent by team plan, they stood on five separate stage pairing with their opponent.
When that happened a huge wall rose from the ground and hide one stage to another to avoid seeing the result of their comrades battle.
The first opponent of Naruto is a burly teen. It looks like he is a physical strength type of fighter. Jin said him to not to hold back against anyone in this tournament because you don't know who is the enemy and who is not.
So, Naruto is not going easy against this youth. When the referee command to start the battle, the teen from Augustin Academy rushed toward him to punch him before Naruto could chant his magic. Because Naruto uses Jutsu they take it as he is a magician.
That is why the teen thought if he attacks before Naruto could chant his spell, he may have a chance to win the match.
But unbeknownst to the teen that naruto was also a great hand to hand combat fighter.
When the punch was about hit Naruto, he avoids it swiftly and caught the hand of youth to stable him on one position, then Naruto gave a sidekick on the neck of the teen. When the teen was smashed on the ground Naruto didn't waste the time, he creates Rasengan with the Kyuubi hand and smashed on the teen.
And that's how the match was concluded here.
It was a swift victory of Naruto.
When the wall again start to move went in the ground and unhide all of the stages, it shows that everyone from the Royal Academy won their own individual matches.
