Chapter 373 Uchiha Obito VS Might Guy
Chapter 373 Uchiha Obito VS Might Guy
"The match begins!"
"Whoosh!"
A sudden, sharp sound broke through the air.
After uttering those harsh words, Obito Uchiha did not stay in place to defend and counterattack like he had done in his previous battle against Genma Shiranui. Instead, he suddenly unleashed a burst of chakra under his feet and shot backward at lightning speed like an arrow released from a bow.
A crimson light shone in Obito's eye sockets, and three black tomoe spun wildly, locking onto the green figure in front of him.
He clearly remembered that in the Forest of Death and in previous matches, whether it was Kisame or those geniuses from other villages, once Might Guy got close, there was only one outcome—they would be brutally beaten by his unreasonable physical skills.
"We must not let him get close!"
As Obito retreated, his hands became a blur of afterimages in mid-air.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Several shuriken flew from his fingertips, colliding and changing course in mid-air, attempting to block Might Guy's advance from various tricky angles.
Immediately afterwards, Obito took a deep breath, his chest bulging high.
"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"
Clusters of orange-red flames enveloped the sword in his hand, raining down on the center of the arena like a meteor shower.
Despite the relentless barrage of fire, Matt Kai did not falter in the slightest.
"Is this the opening greeting of youth? I've received it!"
Kai shouted, gripping the nunchucks in his right hand, his arm muscles bulging instantly.
"Ada—!!!"
With that extremely piercing scream, the black nunchucks transformed into an impenetrable black shield in front of Kai.
"Clang clang clang!"
The crisp sound of the steel chains clashing against the shuriken mingled together, sparks flying everywhere. The phlox flames, coated with intense heat, didn't even have time to touch Kai's clothes before being shredded and scattered by the wind pressure generated by the nunchucks.
Despite the raging sparks, Kai tore a path through the fire, his speed increasing rather than decreasing, like a charging green bull, closing in on Obito.
"So fast!"
As soon as Obito landed, Guy's face with thick eyebrows came into view.
"A prelude to power!"
Kai slammed his right leg off the ground, launching himself into the air with a sharp, tearing kick aimed straight at Obito's face.
The tomoe in Obito's eyes spun rapidly, and his body instinctively shifted slightly to the left.
"Bang!"
Guy's toe grazed Obito's shoulder before slamming heavily onto the stone slab behind him. The hard chakra metal slab cracked instantly, sending fragments flying.
Before Obito could even catch his breath, Guy used his waist to generate force the moment he landed, and swung his nunchucks across the room.
With no way to avoid it, Obito could only swiftly pull out his kunai and hold it horizontally in front of his chest.
"clang!"
A tremendous force traveled through the kunai to Obito's wrist. He felt a numbness in his hand, and the kunai almost flew out of his grasp.
But this is just the beginning.
The terrifying aspect of nunchucks lies in their unpredictable trajectory. Although the nunchucks are blocked by kunai, the chain connecting them bends in the middle, and the other end of the nunchucks, carrying momentum, bypasses the kunai's defense and slams hard into Obito's side.
Obito gritted his teeth and pushed his three-tomoe Sharingan to its limit.
He sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the insidious attack. The tip of the stick grazed his clothes, creating a stinging sensation.
"I'll fight, fight, fight—!"
Kai's offensive was like a raging storm; the nunchucks seemed to come alive in his hands. Chopping upwards, slashing downwards, sweeping horizontally, entwining—each strike was powerful and heavy, and the angles were incredibly unpredictable.
Obito could only retreat step by step, his special steel kunai groaning under the relentless blows of the nunchucks.
From the stands, gasps of surprise rose and fell among the spectators.
"That's incredible! That kid in green is completely dominating the Uchiha clan!"
"What kind of weapon are those nunchucks? Even the Sharingan can't defend against them?!"
In the spectator area, Genma Shiranui leaned back in his chair, watching Obito being beaten helplessly on the stage.
A self-deprecating smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Those thick eyebrows... are much stronger than mine. Even without opening the Eight Gates, they can still overpower Obito."
Genma shook his head and looked at Asuma beside him.
"Even if I forcefully open the fourth gate, I probably have no chance of winning against these two."
Asma remained silent, not replying, his gaze fixed intently on the arena.
On the stage, Obito's situation was already precarious.
"when!"
Obito's kunai was finally knocked away by the nunchucks in a violent collision, and Gai's other short staff was already rushing towards Obito with a whistling sound.
"I can't let him get to me anymore!"
A resolute glint flashed in Obito's eyes. He took a step forward, letting the black short stick slam heavily onto his shoulder.
"Bang!"
Obito grunted, using the force of the impact to fly backward, rolling several times on the ground before finally creating a distance of more than ten meters.
He knelt on the ground, his left hand clutching his aching shoulder, while his right hand rapidly formed hand seals.
Guy didn't give Obito a chance to catch his breath, his leg muscles tensed, and he charged forward again.
Obito suddenly raised his head, his chest expanding violently.
He made a slight adjustment to his hand seals, compressing his chakra together.
"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
"Buzz—!!!"
A pillar of pure, dark blue fire, only as thick as an arm, shot out from Obito's mouth with a piercing shriek!
Wherever the blue flames passed, the air was distorted to an extreme degree, and the stone slabs below instantly turned a molten dark red.
Kai, who was sprinting at high speed, felt a heat wave rushing towards him that seemed to ignite his very soul.
His thick eyebrows instantly stood on end, and his beastly instincts screamed an alarm in his mind.
"This temperature... I can't touch it!"
Kai, who was sprinting at high speed, forcefully dodged, shifting his body half a meter to the right.
"Sizzle—!"
The dark blue pillar of fire grazed Kai's left side and slammed into the barrier behind him.
The pale blue defensive barrier rippled violently, creating dazzling waves and emitting a piercing hiss.
Kai landed steadily on the ground and looked down at his left arm.
However, the specially made, supposedly fireproof and cut-resistant, highly elastic green bodysuit was charred and curled up after just being brushed against by the high temperature of the blue flame, revealing the skin underneath that was burned red.
Kai's gaze became more serious than ever before.
He glanced at Obito, then at the ground in front of Obito, where a deep lava trench had been carved out by blue flames.
If that attack had hit, even if his body was incredibly tough, it would have been burned through instantly.
In the VIP section, the Fourth Raikage's eyes narrowed to slits.
