Chapter 10

Finally, after ten people were defeated, Gekko Himan could not stand it anymore.

If they kept losing like this, people would think that the Gekko Clan were all trash.

"Hayate, you go!"

"Cough cough cough... Yes, Chieftain."

Hayate coughed twice with his sick face and walked forward.

"Uzuki, long time no see."

"Um."

"I know you came here to put pressure on him, but I won't show mercy... Cough cough cough."

"You'd better take care of yourself, don't cough yourself to death in the fight!" Uzuki Yugao said in a scornful voice.

Hayate was speechless.

The two of them had known each other for a long time and had sparred together several times.

They knew each other well in terms of strength.

He was not sure of defeating Yugao, but it was almost impossible for Yugao to defeat him.

The battle was about to start, and Hayate appeared in front of Yugao in an instant, drew his sword, and slashed.

The extreme speed shocked the tribesmen who were watching around.

"Brother Hayate, you're so fast!"

Yugao's speed was not slow either. She dodged sideways and drew her sword to chop at Hayate's shoulder.

The two were just sparring, not fighting to the death.

The places where the swords chopped were not fatal.

However, this was not a let-down. Every time the two drew their swords, they were killing.

In other words, if one of them was distracted and didn't dodge, they would at least be seriously injured!

Gekko Hayate held the sword with both hands to block Yugao's sword, and then chopped at her face.

Yugao was not afraid either. She held the sword with both hands and began to compete with Gekko Hayate in strength!

"So amazing, the fight between the two doesn't look like that of a Chunin at all!"

"Nonsense, you, a Chunin, were killed in two seconds by two swords. Can they be Chunins?"

"Don't you think that Uzuki Yugao is very strong? She can even confront big brother Hayate head-on and not be at a disadvantage!"

"But Brother Hayate doesn't seem to be good at strength, right?"

Gekko Hayate is weak and sickly.

Although his physical fitness is better than that of ordinary Chunin, it is still much worse than some gifted and healthy geniuses.

That's why Uzuki Yugao has the confidence to compete with Gekko Hayate in strength!

After the two fought for more than ten rounds, Hayate actually had a tendency to be suppressed by Yugao!

"Brother Hayate is actually weak?"

"No way, are we, the Gekko Clan, really going to be swept away by this woman?"

Just as all the clan members were exclaiming, Gekko Hayate changed his tactics!

He changed from holding the sword with both hands to holding it with one hand, and then quickly formed a seal.

Shadow Clone Technique!

"Shadow clone!"

"Could it be that Brother Hayate is going to use that move? Dance of the Crescent Moon!"

Almost all members of the Gekko Clan aim to master this sword move.

Now that they can use it from their peers, they are looking forward to it.

Kazuki was also a little surprised.

Originally, his swordsmanship had surpassed Hayate's, but he didn't expect Hayate to have learned the Dance of the Crescent Moon first.

But think about it, Hayate started learning this swordsmanship at the age of fourteen. Now that four years have passed, it is inevitable that he will succeed in his practice.

In contrast, it is not surprising that Sasuke did not learn it by self-study within half a year.

This is not a simple swordsmanship!

"Be careful... Cough cough!"

Hayate coughed and reminded Yugao, then launched a sword move.

Two clones jumped high, and took advantage of the dazzling sunlight to slash at Yugao's two vital points.

And the Hayate himself also approached rapidly, and stabbed Yugao's abdomen with a sword.

Uzuki Yugao's expression was tense at this time.

The attack of the three enemies was obviously not something she could resist, but if she retreated suddenly, she would be chased by the opponent, and she would be defeated sooner or later even if she blocked three swords with one sword.

If she wanted to turn defeat into victory, she could only seize the opportunity to attack the flaws!

Her eyes were fixed on the body of opponent and the changes in the shadows on the ground.

Looking up would be dazzling by the sun, so she could only use this method to judge the attack period of the two shadow clones.

Just when the shadow was getting bigger and bigger, and the sword was about to pierce Yugao's body.

She formed a seal!

Bang!

Substitution technique!

A simple substitution technique made Yugao disappear instantly.

Before clone could react, Uzuki Yugao jumped out from behind a tree and pierced the body of the clone on the ground.

Bang!

"Fake?"

Yugao was startled and tried to retreat immediately, but the other two had already reacted and put two swords on her neck.

"Good! Brother Hayate won!"

"It's still early."

Kazuki looked at the younger generations who were happy but shook his head in disappointment.

"Yugao was able to dodge the Gekko secret technique, so she definitely won't be defeated so easily."

Sure enough, the next second after Kazuki finished speaking, Yugao, who was subdued by Gekko Hayate's sword, turned into smoke and dissipated.

"Shadow clone?"

No one expected this. Even Gekko Hayate seemed to be startled. He was frantically looking for the missing Uzuki Yugao.

However, he did not see that two Uzuki Yugaos had already appeared in the air, swinging their swords towards him!

"The Dance of the Three Days Moon?!!"

Gekko Hayate was still defeated, defeated by the swordsmanship that he was proud of.

But Kazuki did not think that Hayate lost.

He felt that Gekko Hayate must have let her win.

How could the Dance of the Three Days Moon be avoided by a small substitute technique?

If the substitute technique can really easily avoid the Dance of the Crescent Moon, then if Uzuki Yugao used the same move, you couldn't avoid it?

What?

Are you playing me?

"Thanks."

"I lost, cough cough!"

"Humph!"

Kazuki glanced at Hayate with a displeased look, causing Hayate to lower his head with a guilty conscience.

"Sorry, Grandpa Himan..."

"What are you apologizing for? You're talking as if our Gekko Clan can't afford to lose. If you lose, you lose. It's because Gekko Hayate is not as good as you. Hayate will punish you to practice swordplay at Sun and Moon Cliff for a year. Don't come out for even a minute less!"

"Yes, clan leader."

Hayate had no objection, because just as Himan guessed, he still let him win.

When using the Crescent Moon Dance, Hayate deliberately strengthened his killing intent when he was about to cut!

This naked warning behavior allowed Uzuki Yugao to seize the opportunity to avoid the Crescent Moon Dance.

Otherwise, even if Yugao was not defeated, she would not have been able to escape unscathed!

Yugao looked at Gekko Hayate being punished, and was a little hesitant to speak.

In fact, she also guessed that Gekko Hayate let her win. After all, that kind of stupid behavior of issuing a warning in the battle was completely unlike the rigorous Hayate who usually fought.

But she didn't say anything in the end.

Because she felt that even if Gekko Hayate didn't let her win, she didn't think she was doomed to lose!

"Is there anyone else who wants to fight?"

Uzuki Yugao looked at the other members of the Gekko Clan and asked.

However, those she saw lowered their heads in fear.

Even Hayate had lost, so why would they go up?

Would it be embarrassing?
