Chapter 95: Water

~Kage Booth~

Hiruzen seemed truly ecstatic at Orochimaru's win, more so than any of the previous matches that Konoha Shinobi had fought in.

'For Orochimaru to outclass a Shinobi of Kumo who possessed one of the more battle-oriented Kekkei Genkai in Storm Release, it truly shows the potential that he possesses in regards to being a Shinobi. Perhaps it may be best to-' Hiruzen's thoughts were interrupted by the Raikage as he spoke.

"What a terrifying brat. I didn't expect that multiple Shinobi of your Village would be able to interpret and understand the intricacies of utilizing both Fire and Wind Release in conjunction. Especially the Orochimaru brat, he seemed to be able to understand it to the point where the integration was almost perfect." A spoke about his analysis of the match.

"That young man seems to carry the qualities of Chunin at an exceptional level, with him knowing when it was best to end the match and deciding to weigh his options before diving directly into battle like the others." The Kazekage added, with this being the first time they had all thought of a Shinobi who had the qualities to become a Chunin.

The discussion continued onward, meanwhile, the stage was cleared as the final match of the first round was about to begin.

"I'll make sure I win Tsuna, and after I do, I'll be coming for you and Orochimaru next!!" Jiraiya said with a determined look in his eyes and a smile on his face.

Tsunade smiled at this and watched as Jiraiya walked away with all the confidence in the world.

This smile faded off of her face as she was constantly thinking about how she would deal with Blue B in the next round.

'There's no use questioning it, I'll have to fight him with all I have. While I'm not sure how much stronger B is than Roshi, I do know that the Eight-Tails is the second strongest Tailed Beast behind the Nine-Tails. Maybe it's about time I sto-' Tsunade's thoughts were interrupted when she saw people going into what seemed like a casino in the corner of her eye.

'I didn't know there was a Casino set up for the Chunin Exams. Well, it won't hurt to go and just take a look around.

Tsunade seemed to fall into a heavenly trance as she arrived in front of the Casino and utilize the Transformation Technique to appear as an adult.

About 20 minutes later, she left the building while seeming to be in a bad mood.

She had lost all the games she played except for the bet she put in on the Chunin Exams.

She was now determined to win her match as she had bet on herself to win, and she was willing to expose everything she had to so that she could gain victory.

When she returned, both Jiraiya and Shiro were in the ring and ready to begin.

"The next match is Jiraiya of the Leaf vs Shiro Aburame of the Leaf." The announcer began while the crowd cheered for the match.

"Good luck Jiraiya." Shiro told Jiraiya before the match began.

"Same to you Shiro." Jiraiya responded.

"BEGIN!!"

Jiraiya wasted no time in beginning the match as he charged at Shiro.

Shiro responded by sending flying bugs directly at Jiraiya in an attempt to end the match early.

Jiraiya paid it little attention as he blasted a fireball at the bugs, incinerating them immediately.

Jiraiya arrived directly in front of Shiro and began to attack him with his newly learned Frog Kata.

Taijutsu was Shiro's weakest area in terms of combat, so Jiraiya was able to seamlessly overwhelm him with his skill.

Shiro attempted to fight back as formed a whip with his insects and threw Jiraiya away from him.

He then placed his hands outwards, causing a swarm of insects to immediately come from his arms and stay around him as a passive shield.

The bugs he was currently using were able to deal stinging bites, and a massive amount of the bites would make someone feel overwhelmed with pain.

He created this technique to offset the Taijutsu weakness he has, and he had almost mastered it to perfection, with the only thing that could upgrade the technique being stronger or larger amounts of insects.

Jiraiya seemed to feel threatened by the swarm, causing him to go on the defensive as Shiro sent the bugs after him.

Jiraiya began weaving hand signs, after which he shot a large amount of water at the bugs.

"I'm afraid that simply water won't be able to wash away my insects." Shiro said as the water hit the bugs.

Though to his surprise, the water seemed to knock the insects out of the air and seemed to make them stick to the ground.

"That's not regular water." Jiraiya said with a smile.

What he had used was high-viscosity water, making the water extremely sticky and giving it the ability to take out the insects.

Jiraiya used Shiro's momentary shock to body flicker in front of him and deliver a powerful punch to the stomach.

Jiraiya then followed up by blasting more of the high-viscosity water at Shiro, taking him out before he could counter with his bugs.

The attack made Shiro go into the outer wall and stick to it, resulting in his defeat.

"The winner of this match is Jiraiya!"
