Naruto: As a genin, I just want to live a normal life.

Red tailed beast chakra instantly appeared on Xia Xue's body.

Fortunately, Shirahoshi had already let him get used to it once before, and he successfully used it in ninjutsu. So compared to the Sage Seal which he hadn't activated yet, he could use this power in time for defense.

"Ice Release·Bingyan Tangwu!"

The ice wall appears in a gradual pattern, causing corresponding ice-attribute chakra to gradually form in the air...

With a crack, a massive ice wall, no smaller than a fireball, appeared in front of them.

Completed in the second before the fireball arrived!

boom! ! !

sizzle-

The collision between the giant ice wall and the giant fireball produced corresponding chemical reactions: the ice wall melted, turning into water mist.

Standing at the edge of the field, Shirahoshi nodded slightly, thinking to himself that as long as there is tailed beast chakra, even if you give them a dog, the opponent will have at least the strength of an elite Jonin.

His main concern was whether the tailed beast chakra, which had slightly fused with Xia Xue's cells, would regenerate.

after all.

The Golden Horn and Silver Horn are the best examples.

......

The ice wall gradually melted into water mist and streams, and the dripping sound echoed throughout the venue.

Uchiha Hikaru didn't take any further action, but instead looked ahead, thinking, "Such a massive ice release technique... the opponent's strength doesn't seem to be what the headmaster said about them being only Chunin level..."

"Wait a minute!"

As Uchiha Hikaru was thinking, he suddenly noticed that the ice wall in front of him, which had melted quite a bit, looked a little off...

At this moment, Xia Xue completed a water escape hand seal and slapped her hands on the ice wall in front of her.

"I never imagined that one day I would be able to possess the power of a tailed beast."

"I now possess the power of Lava Release! Even if I were to return to Kirigakure, I would be qualified to sit as the clan leader... or even..."

"Elect the Water Shadow!"

With this in mind, Xia Xue channeled most of her remaining Tailed Beast chakra into the Water Release technique she had just used, the last of the Tailed Beast chakra forming an outer garment to protect her from injury after the technique:

The ice wall began to melt, and countless water droplets appeared all around. The streams of water formed by the melting droplets on the ground also began to grow rapidly...

"Water Release: Melting Heat Wave Technique!"

This utilizes the Lava Release property of the Four-Tails' chakra, which can melt the ice wall in two or three seconds and raise the temperature of the water within the ice wall and the surrounding water...

What was originally just a stream of cold water turned into a scorching heatwave that could burn an ordinary person!

Compared to Jiraiya's five gatekeepers, they are naturally not on the same level.

But they are already very similar.

"Interesting." After observing the technique, Shirahoshi activated a shallow slime protective layer around her and entered the onrushing heat wave.

"The temperature is around 55 degrees Celsius... If it were to touch the skin directly, it might cause a minor burn."

......

"hateful."

Compared to Shirahoshi's nonchalant approach, Uchiha Hikaru didn't have as many defensive options.

It was too late when they discovered the water escape technique the other party had used.

Using fire jutsu at this moment will only increase the opponent's water waves, and it won't be able to defend against them at all.

—After all, water itself can overcome fire.

Uchiha Hikaru added a touch of Fire Release chakra to his kunai, wrapped a steel wire around the handle, and swung it upwards: "Fire Release: Ultimate Power Kunai".

Uchiha Hikaru blushed inwardly as he finished speaking, saying something that sounded very pretentious, but in reality it was just a D-rank hidden weapon technique called Fire Release.

Click!

Hearing this voice, Uchiha Hikaru breathed a sigh of relief: "Just as I thought!"

"The fact that the thousand sticks were planted in the ground just now shows that this battle environment can actually be used with Earth Release techniques..."

"Shirahoshi is truly amazing. She can actually create such a magical battle arena! It can prevent excessive attacks from breaking the walls, while also ensuring that the walls have the proper terrain."

After grabbing the steel wire rope, Uchiha Hikaru sped up and dodged the attack of the large waves.

At this moment, the water waves occupied the entire space, which was constructed entirely of 132*132 pentagonal walls, reaching a depth of fifteen meters.

"You're quite clever. You knew to observe the terrain immediately. You could have dodged it even without my warning." Shirahoshi deliberately didn't remind Uchiha Hikaru, just to see how well she had trained at school.

......

Submerged into the water, Xia Xue, separated from the warm water flow, began to observe her surroundings. Finding no trace of Uchiha Hikaru, she immediately understood what was happening.

It's important to know that, apart from Shirahoshi possessing the complete chakra eye that allows her to see through the water and observe the situation on the surface, Natsuki cannot do that.

Before Xia Xue could even get up after surfacing, she saw four large fireballs being spat out from above...

"Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"

Hikaru Uchiha's C-rank fire jutsu is no less powerful than Madara Uchiha's during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

After a group of Water Release soldiers blocked Madara's B-rank Fire Release attack, they thought they were safe.

As a result, several enormous fireballs appeared in the fog...

boom! boom! boom! boom!

Xia Xue was caught off guard and was hit directly by the four fireballs that filled her field of vision!

"wrong."

Uchiha Hikari finally awakened her Sharingan, something she hadn't done before.

A quick glance revealed Xia Xue in a corner.

Uchiha Hikaru nodded. "As expected, he used a clone to distract me. His main body found a safe area, so it's much safer to peek out like this."

Seeing this, Uchiha Hikaru observed for a while, but did not let his guard down, and continued to observe from above.

Meanwhile, the water clone hidden beneath Uchiha Hikaru saw Uchiha Hikaru directly above through the water not far away and felt a slight sense of regret.

......

"So strong..."

At this moment, Xia Xue finally understood the power of the Uchiha clan.

The water clone emerged directly from the water and threw out three shurikens.

Xia Xue knew that Uchiha Hikaru was a member of the Uchiha clan, so naturally she wouldn't choose to look into her eyes with her true form.

Therefore, the role of water in disguise is to be vigilant about the occurrence of this event.

"So he finally used his Sharingan?!"

"This is the only one we can use."

Thinking this, Xia Xue's chakra began to guide the Sage Seal on her neck, which had never been used before...

laugh!laugh!laugh!

After Uchiha Kyou deflected three shuriken, a quick scan with his Sharingan revealed that Xia Xue was about to activate Sage Mode, but her attention had just been diverted by the water clone...

Now, the opponent has taken advantage of a time difference again!

"Female Chunin...you call this a female Chunin...Shirahoshi, you bastard!" Uchiha Hikaru thought she was just a rookie Chunin and easily defeated her.

As the fight progressed, it became clear that the opponent's strength was not what Shirahoshi had described.

—In fact, to be able to defect from Kirigakure, escape the Land of Water, and travel through so many places...

With her Ice Release ability, Xia Xue would be at least an elite Chunin or a special Jonin, even without the cheat code given to her by Shirahoshi.

"Sage Mode."

call--

The moment the Sage Chakra was formed, a small wisp of air swept outwards.

The water beneath the woman's feet created noticeable tiny ripples.

A delicate, light blue fairy-like pattern appeared on Xia Xue's face, with eye patterns the color of ice crystals appearing at the corners of her eyes.

The moment it was activated, Xia Xue felt that the surrounding environment had changed.

Looking around, it seemed as if the surroundings were slowing down, and I could even see tiny water droplets floating on the waves...

and.

"My perception has also improved."

"Even without looking at the girl, I can now tell where she is..."

"What a powerful Sage's Curse Seal..."

Xia Xue was full of confidence at this moment. After raising her hands, ice blocks about half the size of a person and shaped like shuriken appeared on both sides:

"How about this move?"

"Sage Art: Ice Shuriken!"

Two shuriken flew upwards, forcing Uchiha Hikaru to land this time. Simultaneously, he fired several fireballs of the same size to stop the shuriken's attack.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"

"Perfect, let me test the capabilities of this Ice Release Shuriken used in Sage Mode."

If it only increases the power of ninjutsu and is similar to the chakra of tailed beasts... then that would be very disappointing.

Xia Xue manipulated one shuriken to leave the area, while another shuriken rushed towards the fireball.

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!

"Did you take them down?" Uchiha Hikaru landed in mid-air, gazing intently into the white mist...

The next second, Uchiha Hikaru decisively used Shadow Clone Jutsu. The Shadow Clone Jutsu pushed the main body with force, accelerating the landing speed.
