Kurenai vs Orochimaru

"Is Konoha really filled with strong people like her? Why is she hiding her strength? If she showed such strength from the beginning, people could mistake her for a Kage-level expert..."

Sasuke was extremely shocked in his heart. He really could not understand why Kurenai was hiding her strength until now. However, he now focused his attention on the battle between the two, hoping to learn something. He was very clear that he could not improve his strength just by having someone teach him. He had to rely on himself to observe, experience, and comprehend new knowledge.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough." Orochimaru did not use his usual snake-based jutsu but immediately blew a strong wind. The strong wind blew all the trees that were in its path.

"Nothing much." Kurenai didn't use any jutsu. She just stood there and let the wind blow on her body, but it was useless. In the past two years, Kurenai didn't just cultivate the techniques recorded in the inheritance. Ryoha had already given her an all-purpose capsule. Inside that capsule was a gravity chamber where she could improve his physique by utilizing various level of gravity.

Kurenai dug a basement in her house but often used this gravity chamber to train. She kept training inside it for two years. Her physical fitness was improving day by day, and so did her physical strength.

Her terrifying spiritual energy also increased because of the increase in her physical energy, and the quality of her chakra was constantly increasing.

This made Kurenai stronger in every aspect. Whether it was the quality of chakra, ninjutsu, genjutsu, taijutsu, or her other abilities like Bloodline Limit, they were all steadily improving every day.

Moreover, as her physical strength improved, she could use more shadow clones to train. This enabled her to get stronger faster. How could Orochimaru's ordinary ninjutsu work on her?

"A very strong physical quality. Strange, isn't this woman only good at genjutsu? No matter her physical fitness, she can't be that strong. How did she become so strong now? Her physical fitness is so high."

Orochimaru used Wind Release to extract some information. After two years of training inside the gravity chamber, now Kurenai could move freely inside the room with 45x normal gravity How could Kurenai's physical fitness be bad?

"Summoning Jutsu!" Orochimaru summoned a few huge snakes to bite at Kurenai, while Orochimaru himself turned his legs into a snake tail and quickly moved toward her.

"Fire Release - Fire Dragon Flame Bullet, Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!" Kurenai had the innate wind and fire nature transformation. She had such a powerful illusion skill and spiritual energy. How could her chakra control be bad? Her chakra control was good enough for medical ninjutsu.

And after obtaining the inheritance of the Yuuhi clan, she was constantly improving in the perfect direction. At this time, she had surpassed the previous clan leaders of the Yuuhi clan. However, this was also the tradition of the clan. The people of the Yuuhi clan who had obtained the inheritance would obtain all the previous clan leaders' insights, understanding, and techniques.

Under such circumstances, how couldn't they continuously surpass the previous generations? Although the Yuuhi clan had always been a single lineage, and cutting off their bloodline was easy, the benefits gained were also extremely huge. As long as one had high talent and obtained the inheritance, as long as they could live on, they could surpass their ancestors.

Her chakra control was not much worse than Ryoha. Of course, she had also learned the one-handed seal from Ryoha.

"One-handed seal?" Sasuke really wanted to learn that, but unfortunately, Orochimaru did not know how to use the one-handed seal either. Even if he did, he could not learn how to make hand seals with one hand so easily.

"You really brought me more and more surprises, Kurenai!" Orochimaru took advantage of this time to get close to Kurenai. He spat out the Kusanagi Sword like a bullet toward the kunoichi. Kurenai had already seen this move before.

"Wind Release - Air Bullet!" Kurenai's face didn't change. She slightly tilted her body and made a hand seal with her left hand. Her alluring little mouth spat out an air bomb that collided with the Kusanagi Sword, causing the direction of the sword to change.

It just happened to pierce three centimeters away from Kurenai's body. It had to be said that Kurenai's control over the battle was too good. She could even calculate such an exquisite place for the sword to land.

"It's not over yet. Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!" Kurenai still had her one-hand seals. She turned around in the air and threw out a straight line of flames. Orochimaru, who didn't have time to retrieve the Kusanagi Sword, was directly hit by the flames. He was sent flying and burned.

" Ugh... too powerful. Although ninjutsu is not her forte, her mastery of ninjutsu, her exquisite chakra control, and her timing is too wonderful."

Although Sasuke's eyesight had improved a lot after studying under Orochimaru for so long, he still couldn't see through the seemingly simple confrontation just now, or how exquisite Kurenai's ninjutsu was.

At least for now, he couldn't do it at all. He couldn't even imagine that his body and brain would be able to keep up.

At this time, he found that some ordinary ninjutsu could also be so powerful. As long as it was used properly and the timing was right, it would be extremely powerful.

"I didn't expect Kurenai-sensei to become so powerful." Ryoha said with a bit of surprise. But it was nothing. In the past, when Kurenai was still at Jonin's level, she should also have good attainments in ninjutsu. However, her talents had always been covered up by her genjutsu, and she rarely used ninjutsu.

Therefore, people thought that her ninjutsu was not very good. Now they thought about it. How could it be bad? In the past, if her ninjutsu was bad, how could she be a Jonin? Moreover, many Jonins in Konoha were convinced by her. At that time, her attainments in ninjutsu shouldn't be bad, let alone the current Kurenai.

"Swooosh!"

Orochimaru finally revealed his body that was surrounded by flames, but at this time, his skin got burned.

"Fwoosh!"

A sound of air being cut through rang out. Orochimaru was now on Kurenai's left, and his Kusanagi Sword once again broke through the air. However, this time, Orochimaru was holding it in his hand and aimed it toward Kurenai. The battle between them continued in the blink of an eye, and there was no pause at all. The crisscrossing scene made people feel dazzled.
