"Uh....Izumo...are my eyes deceiving me?" Kotetsu asked while rubbing his eyes to make sure he was not seeing things.

"I don't know, Kotetsu. What are you seeing?" Izumo asked as he watched the two Genin battle at near Jonin-level speeds. He could barely even see them.

"Are they really moving that fast?"

"At least low Jonin-level speeds."

"Damn.... "

The fight between Satsuki and Lee got even more furious as the two literally crashed into each other

Satsuki smashed her fist into Lee's torso, however Lee merely grunted and launched a devastating kick to the raven haired Uchiha's stomach, chest and then her face.

She was sent flying back and skidded across the ground. Satsuki looked up to see Lee already in her face. She ducked under a punch from him snd launched her chakra enhanced right elbow to his ribs.

Lee attempted to block it but winced as the attack was far more power than he expected. He attempted to get Satsuki away from her by kicking her in the ribs but she saw it coming and rolled to her left. She kipped back up and blocked a punch sent by Lee.

She then performed a large backflip to get away from him. Lee started running towards her as Satsuki began to weave a set of hand seals.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!!" Satsuki spewed out a giant fireball at Lee who had no choice but to dodge it unless he wanted to get burned into a crisp.

*BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!*

A fiery explosion could be heard in the background. That attack had slowed Lee down and Satsuki was able to close the distance between them. She performed a chakra enhanced fist and elbow combo, making Lee stumble back.

She managed toeget several more good hits in before Lee recovered, began to block them and made his own assault.

Satsuki flipped back, dodging a roundhouse kick from Lee. She unsealed two fuma shuriken and infused lightning chakra into it. She threw them at Lee who widened his eyes at how fast the shuriken were flying.

He took out two kunai and clashed with the two shuriken at the same time. He narrowed his eyes as he felt the electricity numbing his hands.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!"

Lee widened his eyes as he looked at a volley of fireballs heading his way. Satsuki controlled each individual fireball with her chakra, guiding them towards Lee who was having some difficulty evading it.

Lee looked straight at the fireballs. At the last moment, he jumped into the air, dodging them all and making them explode, ending the attack.

But this was what Satsuki wanted. Lee was fast and powerful, and while Satsuki was as well, Lee was simply just a bit better which made a difference in the fight.

"Lightning Style: False Darkness!"

Lee widened his eyes as a spear made out of lightning pierced his stomach. With the Body Flicker Jutsu, Satsuki appeared above him and delivered a devastating chakra enhanced axe kick that sent Lee sailing back towards the ground. He smashed down and created a large dust cloud.

Satsuki landed on the ground. Before the dust even had a chance to clear Lee shot out, coming towards Satsuki at insane speeds.

Satsuki and Lee threw their fists at each other and punched each other at the same time. Satsuki grunted as she and Lee were launched away from one another.

Satsuki wiped some blood flowing out her mouth as she looked at Lee. He had bruises on nearly every part of his body, his face was slightly swollen and he had a broken nose that had blood trickling down from it.

Satsuki unsealed several shuriken and infused them with lightning chakra. She threw them at Lee who was Lee forced to dodge the attacks. Lee jumped up to the air to dodge them.

Satsuki jumped with him and threw a kunai attached with steel grade ninja wire, catching the him in it and then kicking him to the ground.

"Lightning Style: Electromagnetic Murder!"

*PZZZT!!!!*

Lee started spasming uncontrollably as Satsuki sent out a powerful wave of electricity through the steel wire to shock Lee. The Jutsu ended a few seconds later with Lee slumping dowm and had smoke rising out of his mouth.

Satsuki didn't release Lee, instead she stared st him warily. After all, the lotus of the leaf blooms twice.

"Gate of Healing: OPEN!!!!!"

Satsuki widened her eyes as a bright green energy surrounded Lee. Along with the surge in chakra, Lee seemed to gain a surge in strength, snapping the ninja wire with ease. The ground under him began to splinter.

"Gate of Life: OPEN—

" Genjutsu: Sharingan, Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Jutsu."

Lee widened his eyes and screamed in pain. He was in an illusionary world created by Satsuki. He was tormented with the sensation of having spikes driven through him, taking away his body's freedom. At the same time, the physical pain accompanying the illusion reveals that the greatest use this technique has is torture.

The Genjutsu disrupted Lee's focus as the green aura around him disappeared. Lee was suddenly released from that Genjutsu, but the agonizing feeling was still there, making Lee temporarily paralyzed.

Asuma widened his eyes as he heard the sound of birds chirping coming down from the arena. He looked at Kakashi with a shocked expression. The one eyed jonin ignored the shocked gazes he was receiving from the jonin senseis.

Kakashi looked down at Satsuki with a serious expression on his face with his arms crossed. Naruto looked on in interest at what Satsuki was doing.

She was gathering highly concentrated lightning to her left hand. She looked up at the paralyzed Lee with a serious expression.

"Chidori."

Satsuki swung her hand as she zoomed towards Lee, the lightning in her hand was destroying the ground below her in it's wake. Satsuki appeared in front of Lee and thrusted her left hand at him.

*PSSSHHH!!!!*

Lee spat out blood as Satsuki pierced her left hand through his stomach which came out on the other side of his body. She pulled it out and Lee fell back and laid down on the ground, blood spilling out of his stab wound.

Lee coughed out blood as he started slowly getting up. "I'm..... Not *COUGH!!!* Done.... yet...." He said weakly. Genma appeared in front of him and quickly pushed hum back down.

" You've done enough, kid. If you keep going, even the Eight Gates won't stop you from dying due to blood loss." Genma warned as Lee laid on the ground.

Satsuki knelt down on one knee beside him. Lee looked and saw that she had an apologetic look on her face.

"I'm very sorry Lee, I had to use it on you. A scar is better than potentially ending your Shinobi career. The Chidori is used only to protect friends and loved ones. Will you forgive me? " Satsuki asked him. Lee coughed and gave her a big thumbs up accompanied with a bright toothy grin.

"You don't need to feel sorry, Satsuki-chan. We are Shinobi of Konoha, the risk of dying is always looming over our heads. I'll survive.... I think...." Lee mumbled his last sentence before he closed his eyes and fell unconscious.

"WINNER!!! UCHIHA SATSUKI!!!!"

Sakura immediately appeared beside Lee after Genma's declaration while a group of Medic-nin rushed towards where Lee was.

"Hey kid, you should save your chakra for the next round." Genma advised Sakura who used the Mystical Palm Jutsu to start healing Lee's wound.

"Don't worry." Satsuki muttered, making Genma look at her.

"Sakura's chakra control is so perfect she only needs to use the minimum amount needed for the Jutsu." Satsuki explained. Genma hummed as the group of Medic-nin rushed past him.

"Sakura-san, let us bring him to the hospital! You can continue healing him there!" The leader of the group if Medic-nin suggested. Sakura looked at Genma who looked at the Hiruzen.

Hiruzen nodded at Genma who looked back at Sakura. "We'll have a 20 minute break. Just be on time." Genma said. Sakura nodded and allowed the Medic-nin to put Lee on s stretcher. The pink haired kunoichi and the group of Medic-nin then rushed to the Konoha Hospital with the Body Flicker Jutsu.

Genma looked back at Hiruzen. He took a quick glance at the Kazekage and clenched his fists tightly.

'I can smell the snake in him. I don't think I've ever wanted a fight to start quickly than right now.'
