Chapter 446: You've Earned My Approval

As Pakura's words fell, Temari stood in front of Gaara, and all three purple stars on her Three-Star Fan were revealed.

"Whirlwind Roar!"

Temari instantly unleashed a huge vacuum blade towards Pakura, followed by a storm that came right after the vacuum blade.

Meanwhile, standing behind Temari, Gaara didn't remain idle. He formed hand seals, causing the sand beneath the ground to be completely lured out, and a large amount of gravel, like waves, followed the Wind Release towards Pakura.

In that instant, the terrain of the battlefield was instantly changed by Gaara.

"Sand Waterfall: Wind Hell!"

Gaara used chakra to turn the lured out gravel into a powerful tornado storm. Meanwhile, Temari continued to wave her Three-Star Fan, increasing the power of Gaara's ninjutsu, allowing the vacuum blade to enter the Wind Hell.

Standing in the midst of the storm, Pakura looked at the swirling gravel around her and the occasional vacuum blade attacks with no hint of fear. Chakra surged from her body, revealing the aura of a Kage-level powerhouse.

Pakura's hands spun as she waved them, and one Scorch Release fireball after another appeared above her head, rapidly spinning.

Finally, the swirling Scorch Release fireballs gathered above Pakura's head, forming a huge 'sun,' instantly turning the Brooklyn outskirts, which were already in darkness, into daylight.

The sun Pakura held began to absorb the airflow around it. The storm caused by Gaara and Temari was all sucked into it, turning into terrifying hot steam. The gravel in the air also changed its structure under the power of Scorch Release, turning from gravel to liquid.

"Secret Art: Scorch Release: Radiant Sun!"

Pakura held up the giant sun and didn't smash it towards Gaara and the others but towards the ground beneath her feet.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion occurred at Pakura's feet, and a terrifying shockwave pushed forward, destroying everything in its path. Gaara and Temari, who were far away, were directly blown off the ground by this shockwave.

As for Gaara and Temari's joint ninjutsu, it was broken the moment Scorch Release: Radiant Sun appeared.

After the explosion, the ground beneath Pakura's feet, which was changed by Gaara, turned into red crystals, spreading out on the ground.

The ground centered around Pakura, under this strike, turned into a red glass-like substance, and the terrain of this area was directly changed for the second time.

Pakura's figure flashed and left the original spot, appearing in front of Temari and Gaara.

Gaara looked at Pakura standing in front of him and spoke, "We've lost!"

Gaara knew very well that if Pakura had not controlled the power of the ninjutsu in the end and had not attacked them, under that one strike just now, he and Temari would have died instantly.

Especially he knew that Pakura was mostly testing their strength, and did not use her Kekkei Genkai to kill them.

Otherwise, his sand could withstand physical attacks but not the scorching vapor of Scorch Release, and they would have been turned into dry corpses.

Pakura looked at the two fallen figures but smiled and said, "You've earned my approval."

"Go wake up Kankuro."

"Yes!" Temari immediately ran to where Kankuro had fainted and woke him up.

As Kankuro slowly regained consciousness, he looked at his sister, Temari, and asked, "Is the battle over?"

"Yes, we lost, but we earned the approval of Teacher Pakura."

Kankuro looked at the fragments of his puppets and collected them before walking over to Pakura. He stood in front of her and said, "Teacher Pakura."

Seeing the three children of the Rasa addressing her as teacher, Pakura didn't say anything but nodded in acknowledgment.

…

At this time, Coulson and his team from S.H.I.E.L.D. also arrived. From afar, they saw the sudden transformation from night to day and immediately accelerated their vehicles.

Just as the cars approached, however, the tires were instantly melted by the high temperature of the ground. Coulson, startled, didn't get out of the car but climbed onto the hood.

Looking at Pakura and the other three people in front of him, Coulson asked, "What happened here? The terrain has changed drastically."

"Was this an enemy attack?"

Temari introduced, "Teacher Pakura, this is Agent Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D., who mainly entrusted some intelligence missions to us before."

Hearing Temari's introduction, Coulson, standing on the roof of the car, said, "Hello, Miss Pakura, I'm Agent Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D."

Pakura glanced at him and then said, "We just had a sparring session. As for the change in terrain, it was caused by ninjutsu."

Coulson looked at the completely changed terrain and was somewhat amazed. The destructive power of ninjas was truly terrifying.

Was this the power of a team leader-level ninjas?

It's even scarier than the rogue ninja Hidan, it seems.

Before Coulson could speak, Temari said, "We will buy this piece of land around here."

"Could you please arrange for someone to coordinate? We need to build a training ground."

"Wouldn't you want to avoid making bigger disturbances every time we spar elsewhere?"

Hearing Temari's words, Coulson's expression didn't change, but he smiled professionally and said, "Ms. Temari, this piece of land is quite valuable and acquiring it is not easy."

"Of course, you can use physique-enhancing serums as funding."

Pakura didn't understand what a physique-enhancing serum was, but she didn't comment. Instead, she looked at Temari.

Temari shook her head and said, "I have US dollars. Just give me the bill for the specific price, Mr. Coulson."

"This matter shouldn't be troublesome for you."

"Of course, if you find it troublesome, just forget I said anything. I'll contact someone else to handle it."

Coulson smiled and said, "No trouble at all. Since Ms. Temari has spoken, I'll take care of it for you."

"Then, I'll trouble you, Mr. Coulson."

Afterward, Temari looked at Pakura and said, "Teacher Pakura, shall we return to the Puppet Shop now?"

"The test is over, so let's go back!"

Then, the four of them disappeared in a flash, leaving Coulson and his team there.

With no more supply of chakra, the scorching ground slowly cooled down. However, Coulson and his team's car wheels were already fused with the ground, unable to move.
