The fourth Fight

Chapter 62: The Fourth

Scene

"The second trial of the

Chunin Exam, the third round, Hyuga Yukina, wins!" Namikaze Minato

announced, checking on Kiuchi Taketo, who muttered, "If it wasn't for the

Byakugan, I..." before tilting his head and passing out.

Namikaze Minato confirmed Yukina's

victory.

The veins around Yukina's eyes

slowly faded as she deactivated her Byakugan. She touched her chest lightly,

biting her lip as she felt a slight pain.

Hearing Namikaze Minato's

announcement, Yukina gently lowered her hand and turned to leave. As she did, a

drop of blood slipped from her right hand.

Surprised, she looked down to see

a wound stretching from her forearm to the back of her hand. Blood slowly

seeped out; the wound wasn't deep.

Was I hit? I thought I dodged it.

Although my clothes were cut, I thought I escaped.

Curious, Yukina turned her head,

her Byakugan activating momentarily to inspect the ninja sword Kiuchi Taketo

had dropped.

It's an ordinary sword...

Yukina turned back again and

reached the stairs, preparing to go up to the spectator seats. She frowned

slightly, bandaging her arm as she walked.

Namikaze Minato watched the

medical team carry Kiuchi Taketo away, then glanced at Yukina bandaging her

arm.

Injured?

So, Kiuchi Taketo's Bird Flash is

already 70% complete? Judging by his ninjutsu in the first test, he indeed

suits this sword technique. If it had been a double Bird Flash, Yukina might

have lost.

Real numbers trained a good

student! Kiuchi must have endured a lot during this time.

Minato remembered how Kiuchi often

led during missions. His swordsmanship was exceptional, with few in the village

able to match him.

A nostalgic smile appeared on

Namikaze Minato's lips.

Though Kiuchi was low-key,

preferring to be known as "the crane tail of the Jonin," he was

undoubtedly reliable in missions.

Minato glanced at Kiuchi Taketo's

stretcher.

This kid seems a bit extreme.

Zhenshu once said he was worried.

Meanwhile, in the spectator seats,

the shock in Kiba's eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a self-deprecating

smile.

Why am I surprised? Yukina is

naturally strong. She trains as hard as I do!

Kiba's eyes turned to Shiga

Taketake. Although surprised by Kiuchi Taketo's defeat, he wasn't shocked.

He understands Yukina's strength

to some extent.

This guy might be very troublesome

if we face him.

Kiba frowned slightly. Yukina had

already reached the spectator seats, and Kiba noticed the bandage on her hand.

Her hand is injured? That sword

hit her? No, it should have been avoided!

Yukina approached, noticing Kiba

and Hirohiko's concerned gazes. She raised her hand and made a "V"

gesture.

Seeing this, Hirohiko gave a

thumbs up.

"Is your hand okay?"

Kiba asked.

"A minor skin wound, it won't

affect future battles. It's already bandaged," Yukina replied, smiling

slightly.

"That's good." Kiba

nodded and turned his gaze to the big screen, wondering if Yukina had

miscalculated her dodge.

Seeing Kiba's focus shift,

Hirohiko also watched the big screen, while Yukina showed a slight pain in her

face, pressing her chest gently to ease the discomfort.

The first row of names was

decided.

Izumi Shirakawa.

After a while, the second row of

names stopped.

Mizutani Rin.

Hirohiko and Yukina glanced at

Kiba, who noticed their stares and said, "Why are you looking at me?"

"Mizutani should abstain this

time. You knocked him unconscious," Yukina said.

"That's right," Hirohiko

agreed.

Kiba looked at the field, where a

young man slowly walked towards it, glancing at the big screen.

Maintaining physical condition

after each battle is crucial. If the second match is random and you can't

compete, you'll lose by default. Shiga Taketake might have realized this when

he surrendered to Hirohiko.

Kiba looked at Shiga Taketake, who

was no longer in the same spot.

He left...where did he go?

Kiba was puzzled but didn't dwell

on it. Displeased murmurs about Mizutani's absence arose around him.

A medical ninja whispered to

Namikaze Minato, who nodded and raised his hand.

Before the participants reached

the field, the test officer signaled not to announce the match's start but the

winner and loser.

Everyone knew Mizutani probably

couldn't compete. Kiba's earlier blow was no joke.

"This is so unfair! Mizutani

is being wronged!"

"The drawbacks of this random

selection system! It's unfair to Mizutani!"

"How can this be..."

Kiba listened to the complaints,

noting Mizutani's apparent popularity. However, this was one of the rule's

tests.

A ninja's battles don't follow a

round-robin schedule. Emergencies occur, and the second match being randomized

immediately after the first is an unexpected situation.

Choosing battle tactics,

preserving physical strength, and maintaining condition are crucial in

high-intensity, unpredictable, and sustained battles.

For war?

Kiba looked at Namikaze Minato,

then at the Third Hokage and Sannin on the high platform.

Is it approaching?

Kiba clenched his fist quietly,

feeling the tension.

"The Chunin Exam, the second

test, the fourth match, the winner..." Minato Namikaze prepared to

announce Izumi Shirakawa's victory, ignoring the complaints.

"Wait a minute!"

Suddenly, a bandaged teenager ran from the temporary medical room corridor.

It was Mizutani Rin!

Hirohiko and Yukina looked at Kiba

again.

Kiba, noticing their stares, said,

"Why are you looking at me again?"

"Half his head bandaged with

one punch..." Yukina remarked.

"Yeah," Hirohiko nodded.

"Hey...what are you trying to

say?" Kiba was exasperated.

In the field, Namikaze Minato

frowned slightly at Mizutani Rin, followed by two medical ninjas.

"I'm here!" Mizutani

exclaimed, looking back at the medical ninja. "I'm fine, I can

compete."

"But you have a slight

concussion..." one medical ninja protested. "You need to rest."

"It's okay! I'm fine!"

Mizutani Rin insisted, looking at Namikaze Minato with determined eyes.

This kid...

Namikaze Minato frowned, then

slowly lowered his hand.

"The Chunin Exam, the second

trial, the fourth round, Izumi Shirakawa vs. Rin Mizutani!"

Clearly, Mizutani Rin's

qualification to compete was recognized.

In the stands, Hirohiko and Yukina

glanced at Kiba again.

"Concussion..." Yukina

said.

"Yeah," Hirohiko nodded.

"So, what are you trying to

say?" Kiba couldn't help but laugh.
