Rock Lee's Challenge

The next day, several people who had rested for a long time embarked on the journey to the central tower.

Because of Kai's existence, no unsighted team ambushed them anymore, and they all walked around Kai and his group.

Until they were approaching the meeting point of the central tower, a man suddenly appeared on the way forward wearing green tights and a pot-top hairstyle with thick eyebrows.

Rock Lee, Konoha's little blue beast.

Kai and others stopped immediately, and Inuzuka Kiba spoke impatiently: "If you don't want to be eliminated, get out of the way. We don't have the time to quarrel with you."

At this moment, with Hyuga Kai supporting him, he was speaking extremely arrogantly.

But Rock Lee ignored Inuzuka Kiba and bowed slightly to Kai: "Kishu-kun, please fight with me!"

"How dare you ignore me!" Kiba was furious and stepped forward to teach Rock Lee a lesson.

Kai stretched out his hand to stop him: "You go and capture the central tower first, leave this place to me."

"Kishu-kun..." Hinata was still a little worried.

Kai smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, it will be over soon."

"Kishu-kun, be more careful."

"Um."

The three of them bypassed Rock Lee and rushed straight to the final tower. Rock Lee's target was Kai, so he didn't stop them.

"To compete with me, you must be determined to kill me." Kai said in a deep voice.

Rock Lee showed an extremely youthful smile, and the row of white teeth sparkled in the sun: "Don't worry, I will do my best. This is the promise of youth."

Kai looked at this youthful smile and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, what a hot-blooded idiot.

"Konoha Tornado!"

Rock Lee jumped up and kicked towards Kai.

As a taijutsu ninja, he is extremely fast and can make a sound of wind with a simple kick. Among the several Konoha Genin that Hyuga Kai has fought against, he has the fastest speed and strength.

But these are not enough to beat Kai. He joined Anbu at the age of eight and became famous for his physical skills.

If Rock Lee takes off the weight on his legs and activates the Eight Gates Dungeon, he can acquire Jōnin-level taijutsu skills in a short time.

Kai easily received the blow with his side hand, and then used his arm to throw Rock Lee away.

Rock Lee rolled on one hand and regained his balance.

"Your speed and strength are not as good as mine. You can't even touch me without using any special skills." Kai stood with his hands behind his back, showing the style of a master.

"But..." Rock Lee was struggling in his thoughts. His teacher Might Guy told him that he can only use the Eight Gates and a series of secret techniques when he is protecting important people.

But seeing Kai in front of him, he firmly decided to take action with all his strength. Wouldn't it be a disgrace to his youth not to take action with all his strength in the face of such an enemy?

I don't think the teacher would punish him.

Thinking of this, he squatted down and tried to take off the weights on his legs.

"Lee! Have you forgotten what the teacher said?" A shout sounded.

Neji and Tenten walked out of the central tower.

Neji said, "It's not too late to wait until the third game for this kind of competition."

These two sentences called Rock Lee back, and he almost broke his promise.

"Sorry, there is a reason why I can't go all out. I can only discuss it next time when I have a chance."

Rock Lee bowed deeply to apologize.

Kai waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I'll be there to accompany you anytime."

"Thank you for your understanding. You are really a charming person." Rock Lee praised sincerely.

"Thank you for your compliment." Kai smiled and said goodbye to the three people in the third class, and walked towards the central tower, leaving only his back to everyone.

Neji came to Rock Lee and asked: "How do you feel about his strength?"

Rock Lee said seriously, "It's very strong. If I don't use Eight Gates, I'm no match for him."

Tenten opened her mouth wide: "What? You can't even keep up with him?"

"Yes, I felt like he didn't use any force from beginning to end."

...

The three people from Class 8 entered the central tower and handed over the scrolls to the examiner, and finally went to the lounge upstairs.

Hinata had a worried look on her face along the way, and her two teammates tried to persuade her.

Inuzuka Kiba patted Hinata on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the guy with thick eyebrows is definitely no match for Kishu-kun because he is so powerful."

"Yes, my bug told me that he is very powerful." Aburame Shino took out the black parasitic bug in his hand.

"Well, Kushi-kun must be fine." Hinata said this more like trying to persuade herself.

"You aren't talking about Brother Kushianymore, will you?" A familiar voice came from in front of the group of people.

Naruto jumped up to a few people: "Ya, you are so slow, why are you here now?"

"How come you came faster than me?" Inuzuka Kiba pointed at Naruto's nose and said in disbelief.

Naruto raised his head proudly: "Haha, of course, I am the man who will become Hokage in the future. By the way, did you just mention Brother Kushi?"

"Kishu-nii?" Inuzuka Kiba was very confused about this title. Didn't he just beat Naruto in the second exam? Why did he change his name to "Nii-san" now?

"Of course, Brother Kushi is a good man, not only... but also..." Naruto was halfway through his words when he suddenly thought of keeping it a secret and stopped immediately.

Inuzuka Kiba couldn't stand Naruto's half-sentence and urged impatiently: "What on earth is that?"

At this time, Sasuke appeared to smooth things over: "Nothing, we asked Mr. Kushi for some advice on training."

Hearing this, Shino was also surprised that Uchiha Sasuke, who had always been arrogant, would respectfully address him as Kushi-kun.

"That's right, he was there to guide us in our training. I just don't want you to know the unique skills I just learned." Naruto explained.

Inuzuka Kiba didn't think much and rolled his eyes: "The tail of the crane is the tail of the crane."

"You're just looking for a fight." Naruto reached out to teach Inuzuka Kiba a lesson, but was stopped by Sakura.

Sasuke asked Shino, who was more reliable, "How do you know Kushi?"

Shino, who was standing nearby with a very low sense of presence, said resentfully: "Did you finally find me? We met Sunagakure's Gaara team..."

So, so, so, so, Shino told what happened yesterday.

At this time, several people from Asuma's team came over and also inquired about Kai's information.

When they heard that the sandstorm that covered the entire Death Forest yesterday morning was due to the Ninjutsu confrontation between the two, their mouths opened wide.

"This...this is Genin's Ninjutsu?" Ino said in disbelief.

Shikamaru scratched his head and said lazily: "It's really troublesome. So our enemy is really very powerful."

"Are you scared out of your wits? Little guys of Konoha! With this little ability, you might as well go home and find your mother."

Among the three people passing by Yunyin Village, Karui had dark skin and red hair. , taunting several people in Konoha.

"You guy!" Naruto was furious. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to show off his opponent, but was stopped by Sakura.

And Sasuke has murderous intent in his eyes. His family is his bottom line. Anyone who dares to mention it is seeking death.

Upon seeing this, Atsui and Karui drew out their long knives at the same time.
