118 Chapter 117 You Call This Medical-nin?

After a while, there was a burst of excited exclamations from the stands.

"Too terrifying, what the hell was that just now?"

"Are you kidding me? It feels like a Chunin like me will be killed in a flash when fighting against any of them!"

"It seems that the winner of the Chunin Exams this time should be Kumogakure's Nii Yugito!"

"Not necessarily, Sunagakure still has Baki!"

After Yugito released that terrifying chakra, the balance in everyone's heart gradually began to tilt towards her.

After all, the Genjutsu that Sōseki showed was too weak, not as shocking as the battle between Yugito and Guy.

After the referee announced the end of the match, Sōseki jumped down to help Guy, and then shook his head slightly after sensing his condition, "He's really messed up, but fortunately, he didn't open to the fifth gate."

At this time, Yugito, who has returned to her human form, said in a low voice, "When he wakes up, tell him that I lost this match."

Without waiting for Sōseki to ask questions, she explained, "I used power that doesn't belong to me. He should have won this match!"

"I will tell Guy, but you don't actually have to think too much." Sōseki carried Guy and walked straight up on the wall, "Shinobi is a group of people who only care about the results. There is nothing to be ashamed of by using the power you "get". At least, I am well aware of the pain that Jinchūriki has experienced in the process! Controlling it must require a lot of efforts and is not something instant!"

Yugito fell silent. Even in Kumogakure, the environment where Jinchūriki is living the best, she is still regarded as a monster by many people who know the inside story, not to mention her efforts to control her chakra under the influence of the Bijū. Only after she and Nibi reached a preliminary consensus that the situation became a little better.

"Did I resist using that power from the bottom of my heart because I was afraid of being rejected by everyone?" Yugito muttered to herself, recalling what Guy said before the fight, "To make him admire you that much, you should be stronger than him in that state, right? It seems that if you don't borrow the power of the Bijū, I won't have the qualifications to fight you one-on-one against you!"

Regardless of her mood How, the matches still continue.

More than an hour later, the official match enters the second round.

"Second round first match, Kirigakure's Terumi Mei vs. Konoha's Shimizu Sōseki!"

Hearing the referee's announcement, Mei stood up nervously from the viewing platform.

Murasaki, who is beside her, asked worriedly, "Will you be okay?"

"I'm not sure!" Mei shook her head with a bitter smile, but soon her eyes turned firm again, "But, I will try my best!"

"Be careful with his Taijutsu and Genjutsu!"

"I know."

They have seen the strength of the other party's Taijutsu, and they don't think that his Genjutsu can reach the same level as his Taijutsu, so they subconsciously attributed Samui's instant defeat to her weak will.

Jumping onto the field, Sōseki is already waiting.

After a little preparation, the match officially begins.

'The opponent's Taijutsu is too strong. Even if Samui is not defeated by his Genjutsu, rushing up like her will only result in failure!' In Mei's view, Taijutsu is the other party's strongest point, therefore, she didn't rush up to get into close combat as everyone thought, but hurriedly retreated to the back as soon as the match started.

'This distance should be enough. Then, I just need to be careful of his Genjutsu...' Mei was vigilant when suddenly, a strong drowsiness struck.

'I'm so sleepy...No, it's Genjutsu...' Mei barely remained awake, "Kai!"

However, it was of no use.

The gap between the souls of the two parties is too big, and she can't break it with her own strength!

'How is it possible? I can't break free from this Genjutsu at all!' Mei was confused and there was a hint of horror in her heart, which was something she had never encountered before.

"Can you still hold it?" Sōseki calmly increased the output, and at the next moment, Mei fell down like Samui did.

Seeing this scene, almost all of the audiences stood up from their seats in disbelief.

Fighting also requires reference and comparison!

Unlike from the previous round, Samui did not show any strong combat power. So, even if she was defeated instantly, they would not be shocked, but Mei had showed her amazing strength in the previous round by defeating Iwagakure's strongest Genin, Murakado.

'However, this kind of expert, when facing Shimizu Sōseki, is still instantly defeated without any suspense!'

'How powerful is the strength of that Konoha's genius!'

'It's too strong. I didn't expect his Genjutsu to be so powerful!' Baki was shocked. The strength of the Ninjutsu displayed by the opponent in the Forest of Death has already made him extinguish the thought of winning against him. Now, he didn't even have the thought of ​​catching him up, 'Perhaps, there is a thousand Murakado gap between me and him!'

"Amazing! As expected of a person recognized by this Yahiko-sama!" Yahiko hugged Nagato and then asked, "Nagato, can you beat him?"

Nagato weakly replied, "He is very difficult to deal with. I may not be his opponent."

Even the Mizukage, who is on the stand, is pointing his finger at Sōseki with sinister expression, and looked towards Hokage and asked, "You call that a Medical-nin?"

Sandaime just smiled and said, "Isn't it reasonable that Medical-nin can use Genjutsu? Why, isn't that the case with your Kirigakure?"

'That brat's Genjutsu is too exaggerated!' Raikage was shocked for a while, then secretly sighed in relief, "But fortunately, it's still just a Genjutsu!"

It is well-accepted fact in the Shinobi World that ordinary Genjutsu are ineffective against Jinchūriki who can communicate with their Bijū!

Because there are two presences in Jinchūriki's body. If one is caught in Genjutsu, the other can help disrupt the flow of chakra to break the Genjutsu.

Kitsuchi, who is on the side, is also a little dumbfounded, 'Didn't Mahiru say that Shimizu Sōseki's strength is entirely due to the Flying Thunder God Technique? But now, it seems that he can crush all the candidates except Jinchūriki with Genjutsu alone!'

'Even though Konoha has declined in recent years, its foundation and potential are still not comparable to other Shinobi Villages!' After witnessing this scene, Rasa could not help but secretly calculate in his heart, 'Perhaps, temporarily alliance with Konoha is also a good choice!'

Although the next few battles looked more exciting, they were far from shocking.

Even the villagers who don't know how to fight can understand one thing, that is, no matter how fancy they fight, it will only take a second for them to be defeated when facing Sōseki.

It wasn't until the fourth match that there was a slight change.

"Kunoichi from Hoshigakure, your journey ends here. I am different from the opponent you met before. I am the strongest Kumogakure from Shinobi World!"

Although he sounds arrogant, the talking Kumogakure's Shinobi is indeed very strong. and his skill in Ninjutsu even surpasses many Chunin. His amazing speed and attack just restrained Natsuhi's seemingly powerful but somewhat clumsy peacock technique.

'It seems that that is the only way!'

The mimetic chakra behind Natsuhi changed into wings and then she flew into the sky.

The Kumogakure's Shinobi who was talking big before is dumbfounded when he saw this, 'Isn't this too shameless?'

The Shinobi who watched the battle were also very surprised. There are too few Ninjutsu that allow the user to fly in the Shinobi World.

In addition to using Summoned Beasts, it seems that only Tsuchikage's Light-Weight Rock Technique can have this effect.

'Fourth match? That is to say, if she can win the next match, she will be my opponent in the big four!' Sōseki pondered, and then looked towards Asuma who has dark expression, 'Of course, the premise is that she defeats Asuma in the next round first.'
