Chapter 53: Critical hit to Rock Lee, Duel between men!!!

[After a day of relaxing with Hinata.]

[The next day.]

[In the Chunin Exam, during the first stage of the exam.]

["What has Kakashi Sensei been doing recently? Why didn't he even show up to tell us the basic instructions?!"]

[Naruto is puzzled.]

[In the past, Kakashi was late at most.]

[Now it has completely disappeared!]

["Maybe something happened recently."]

[Sasuke handled it indifferently, raised his legs, and walked upstairs.]

['I hope Kakashi can find out the result as soon as possible.']

[Walking towards the second floor, Sasuke observed someone blocking the way in front of a door, it seemed to be two Chunin with a Transformation Jutsu, the number on the door was 301, which was where his exam room was located.]

[Sasuke's mouth twitched.]

[This kind of basic Genjutsu could only fool a rookie!]

['A Chunin's Genjutsu is only at this level?']

[However.]

[As soon as he had this thought, he saw Naruto turn his head and was about to walk over there.]

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------

Uzumaki Naruto: "Damn it! I fell into the trap there too!"

Uchiha Sasuke: "Then you are a fool no matter what world you are in."

Nara Shikamaru: "Now that I see it from this perspective, the design of that Genjutsu is very crude, but if they manage to trick you, you would save yourself a lot of trouble by being expelled early from the Chunin exam."

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------

["Naruto!"]

[Angrily Sasuke pulls Naruto's collar directly from behind.]

[A chakra penetrates Naruto's body, causing the latter to free himself from the Genjutsu.]

["Huh? How did the room become 201?!"]

[Naruto said in retrospect.]

["...Even if you can't see that this is an illusion, can't you remember how many stairs you have climbed? You just reached the second floor!"]

[Sasuke couldn't help but hold his forehead and said.]

[Let's not talk about ninjas, even ordinary people shouldn't fall into this kind of illusion, right?]

[Even using this illusion technique feels a bit insulting to the IQ!]

["hateful!"]

[Naruto felt a little embarrassed and embarrassed at this moment.]

[Sasuke sighed and began to explain to Naruto how to recognize and decipher illusions.]

["Please wait!"]

[A youthful voice comes from behind.]

[Sasuke turned his head and saw a boy with green tights and ridiculously thick eyebrows.]

['Rock Lee?']

[Sasuke has heard of the other party.]

[Rock Lee is one year older, he only knows physical abilities, but he graduated from the ninja academy.]

["That lovely pink-haired lady, please be my girlfriend, I will risk my life to protect you!"]

[Rock Lee gave a thumbs up, his mouth full of white teeth shining.]

["..."]

[Sakura feels her brain shaking.]

[Compared to him, even Naruto looks like a better option…]

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------

Rock Lee: "Wow, why is this happening?!"

Uzumaki Naruto: "...Sakura-chan, is this supposed to be a compliment?"

Ten Ten: "Lee, your appearance is too strange, plus approaching you like that out of nowhere will only scare the girls."

Nara Shikamaru: "Especially, Sakura looks at Sasuke's face every day, the contrast is too obvious..."

Rock Lee: "Damn, is it cool to be handsome? I think I look good like this!"

Might Guy: "Lee! It's a good thing you can think like that, you can't doubt yourself for others!"

Rock Lee: "Yes! Master!"

Ten Ten: "You two are hopeless..."

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------

[Sakura shivered and hid behind Sasuke.]

["Do you want to chase Sakura? But unfortunately for you, she's my girlfriend, plus you're scaring her, so stop doing that."]

[Sasuke moved his body slightly, keeping Sakura behind.]

["You are Uchiha Sasuke, right? I have heard of your name, it is said that you and Neji are called the two geniuses of the ninja academy!"]

[Rock Lee's eyes burst into flames of passion, reflecting solid determination.]

[Genius!]

[This is exactly what he wants to challenge!]

["Please fight a duel between men with me!"]

[Rock Lee asked excitedly.]

[Defeat Sasuke and win Miss Sakura's heart!]

[When you think about this, you feel motivated!]

["A duel between men?"]

[Sasuke said thoughtfully, turned his head to look at Sakura behind him, turned his face slightly, and made a gesture.]

[Sakura understanding the meaning of what Sasuke meant, blushed in an instant and lightly kissed Sasuke's face.]

["Here, what you said, you lost the duel between men."]

[Sasuke turned his head and said to Rock Lee.]

[click!]

["..."]

[Rock Lee's entire body seems to have turned gray and white, splitting.]

[Kneeling on the ground and sitting up, his arms hit the ground continuously, tears streaming down his face.]

[Why… why is this happening…]

[Even all the ridicule he had suffered for not knowing any ninjutsu or Genjutsu, or even the inhuman training he was exposed to, he had never felt a blow as strong as what he had just experienced in just a few seconds!]

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------

Uzumaki Naruto: "Oh Sakura how can this be, damn Sasuke!"

Rock Lee: "Whoa, Sakura, no, don't do that kind of thing!"

Ten Ten: "Lee is so miserable that I think I hear the sound of something breaking... better luck next Lee."]

Hatake Kakashi: "A duel between men... Does Sasuke understand it like that?"

Jiraiya: "...It's a loss."

Nara Shikamaru: "Rock Lee and Sasuke, the strength gap is probably not as big as this..."

Yuhi Kurenai: "Guys... How long have Sasuke and Sakura been dating in the other world, and now they just notice these kinds of interactions...?"

Tsunade: "In some situations, it is necessary to witness them with our own eyes to be able to assimilate the cruel reality, otherwise we will only cling to a fantasy..."

Terumi Mei: "Even so, I find the situation of that strange boy very miserable."

Rock Lee: "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
