25. Technique

"Konoha Gorikki Senpu!"

" Impact Hornet"

"Booommmm!! "

Both Hoseki and Guy collided in mid air.

They were hanging on the air for a second and blown away in different directions.

Dust were flying when they landed.

Both Hoseki and Guy stood and silently stared each other.

After a few second, Guy raised his thumb. "I lost. Thanks for...."

Guy fell on the ground and faint.

Although the results is clear. The field is filled with silence.

" I win right? " Hoseki broke the silence and ask for his win.

The teacher in charge woke up from his shock and announced the results.

Hoseki then walked toward Guy and lift him.

" I will send him to rest room. "

Hoseki walked leaving the field. He knows they will be given rest time after each match so he didn't worried about missing his match.

***

At the same time.

A man hiding behind a pillar and looks toward Hoseki and Guy. "Looks like spring has come to you Guy. Do your best my son. Your youth just begins."

A teacher who watched the entire fight, "Seriously, these boys fight are these intense just for graduates? What other students will do then?"

"Heh, Look at their strengths. I say. They can even fight a chunin to stand still. Given more time, they can had chunin on their belt without problems." a Jonin chided him from behind.

"Not necessarily. A shinobi is not that easy. One cannot be a good shinobi only with taijutsu. Especially that boy in green." The teacher didn't agree with the Jonin.

"Heh. Wanna bet Tetsuya san? I say, both of them will be chunin in 3 years. The one who lose will pay lunch for a month." the jonin ask a bet.

"Not everyone is genius like you Minato. I'll accept your bet. Don't you dare run away later" Teacher Tetsuya accept the bet.

"Haha, I won't." Minato laugh and sit in the bench beside Tetsuya.

The third hokage watched Hoseki was bringing Guy out with him. Looking at the back of Hoseki he said, "Don't you think you are too hard on those boys Sakumo?"

".... " Sakumo answer the question with silence.

" Sigh, Hoseki is your nephew. I won't interfere with your family affair. But why include Guy into this?" the hokage still asking answer from Sakumo.

"They will be alright. Don't about them. Instead you should worry about that boy's father. After all, You are the one who gave him the Forbidden Technique" Sakumo answer with straight tone.

After a few moments of silence, the third Hokage said "That man always gives his all for all of his mission. Instead of asking for money or anything else as his reward, he work hard accumulated his merits all those years only to aquire that one technique. I gave to him back then in hope he gave up after knowing how hard the technique was. Who have thought, he never stop training the technique since then. It has been 20 years, and it seems he still don't gives up. It is his ninja way. Who am I to stop him."

After a few hours, the semi final were held, the last 4 participants were divided into 2. The winner will fight in final. The prize only for first and second place. The third and fourth can just sat and watch.

Hoseki and Kakashi won their fight and enter the final.

.

.

Both Hoseki and Kakashi ask for immediate fight as they had no need for rest. Accepting the request, Hoseki and Kakashi were arrange to fight immediately. Bothe of them enter the field.

"Take them out. No need to waste time." Hoseki said with serious face.

"Tch" Kakashi didn't as another word and immediately put out his weight straps and threw them off.

"Kaboom!! "

"Haizz, another one. The kids nowdays are that ferocious?" A spectator said that.

"Tsk.. "

"Tch.. "

"Tch.... "

"Hisss.. "

Other spectators speechless hearing the question.

.

.

When the in charged teacher announced the fight to start both of them immediately ran towards each other with their hands moving fast doing hand signs.

"Raiton, Lightning Bolt" Kakashi launched attack with lighting in his hand.

"Futon, Wind Canon" Hoseki Blows wind with his mouth.

Two force collided creating loud noise. Meanwhile Kakashi and Hoseki didn't stop their fight.

Shuriken and kunai were flying.

Both of them use substitute and clone jutsu to evade.

They start clashing slowly. After a few minutes the pace increasingly faster. The fight start from Ninjutsu and tools clash becoming fiercer when taijutsu was included .

The pace becomes faster after both of them starting to enter gear second.

The spectator dumbfounded with the clash. If they saw fight between Hoseki and Guy was a purely intense taijutsu fight, the fight between Hoseki and Kakashi was more than that. Dust and booming sound were everywhere as both of them constantly moving through out the fight.

.

.

"Hey Minato, let's cut Hoseki out of the bet" Tetsuya frown looking at the fight.

"Hahaha. No can do Tetsuya senior. We bet on both of them. Just pray they don't become chunin at different time. Or else you have to pay me 2 times" Minato smile refused the suggestion.

"Tch, I am only senior when you get something from me."

.

.

The fight continues for some times. Both of them rapidly attacking and defending at the same time.

After moving back and forth for a long time, they stop. Staring contest began without any notice.

Taking a deep breath, Hoseki and Kakashi raised their hand towards their back and pull out their weapons.

While Kakashi without surprised puling out his blade, Hoseki weapons made people who were watching the fight frown.

Hoseki took out a weapon scroll and pull out his black bamboo sword. Except for Sakumo and Kakashi, everyone who watched the fight didn't knew Hoseki was holding a blade. The black bamboo really look like normal bamboo stick except for his colour which is black.

.

.

Hoseki closed his eye and muttered silently, "Hoseki style. Sheathed sword, volume 1. Blind Stinger."
