Ninja Ice House

This year's

The biggest difference between the "King of Fighters" challenge and last year is that there are more ninjas wearing forehead protectors and more contestants with clear camp logos.

There is still a big gap in strength among the previous contestants, especially in all age groups. The seeded contestants at the winning level can compete with the senior chunin from the five major ninja villages, and even the novice jounin.

When top talents like Kaguya Kimimaro, Ryuudouin Akira, and Kazuma emerge, everyone else becomes a companion.

This year is much better. The dominance of the masters is not strong, coupled with a large group of elite-educated ninjas participating, let

The adult category of "King of Fighters" has become much more enjoyable to watch. Competitions that are too clear-cut between strong and weak are the least interesting, and are too unfriendly to neutral audiences who have no tendency.

This time it was much better. Even with the participation of star teams like Hyuga Neji, Uchiha Sasuke and Karin, they still did not show much advantage.

The fundamental reason is that the introduction of the round-robin points system in the rematch has turned a duel that determines the outcome into a rally.

With strong explosive power, after a few hearty wins, the risk of losing subsequent games due to lack of physical strength, leading to a significant drop in rankings, and eventual elimination is a risk for every team.

The arrogant and arrogant star team of Konoha Village initially had the intention of defeating all their opponents and advancing with a crushing advantage, but they disappeared with each hard-fought battle.

The intensity of the entire age group is not comparable to that of the youth group. After all, Karin, Hinata Neji and Uchiha Sasuke are only eleven or twelve years old, and they have won a genin team. How can they win ten in one breath?

Group?

That's not what Iron Man does either. Because of the advantages of the immortal human body, Karin's physical strength and chakra can still hold on, but Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata Neji are completely helpless.

The most important thing is to selectively exert force, maintain your physical strength to the maximum extent, and give up fighting with strong enemies who have a low chance of winning.

Outside of games, intelligence investigation and strategic analysis have become very sought-after abilities. In addition, the fourth substitute, who was originally relatively useless, has begun to become particularly important.

In such a high-intensity intensive battle, no one can guarantee that he will not be injured. At critical moments, a reliable substitute becomes the key to determining victory or defeat.

At first, Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Neji and Karin didn't realize this problem. It wasn't until Ebisu, one of the tutors, reminded them that they realized their negligence.

However, at this time, all the capable substitutes had been snatched up. Neither Hyuga Neji nor Uchiha Sasuke had deep connections, so they could not find any suitable candidates.

After urgent discussions, the name of Uzumi, who performed well in the junior group, was submitted before the deadline.

Hinata Neji was not familiar with this female ninja who suddenly appeared. After being in the same class with her for a few months, Karosuke and Uchiha Sasuke were quite familiar with this female classmate who always had a slight smile on her face and acted in a very kind manner.

The impression is still very good.

Although his strength is so-so, his biggest advantage is that his performance is very stable, which is a very rare quality for a substitute.

And Uzami's performance has lived up to expectations. While taking into account the youth competition, she can also handle the battle for Uchiha Sasuke, Hyuga Neji and the Kousu team with ease. She has played twice and won both times.

"Your class has really produced a lot of great talents. The guy who uses the ninja dog is a bit impulsive and reckless, but his strength is acceptable. The humble insect user is very powerful. Especially this Uzami, who is not as calm as us.

Students of this age group." Speaking of his classmates and partners, Hinata Neji couldn't help but feel a hint of envy in his heart.

The sixth grade students who are about to graduate will soon graduate and become ninjas. Who doesn’t want to have a strong and reliable teammate with excellent quality? Compared with the many choices of Koso and Uchiha Sasuke, Hinata Neji’s partner options are shabby.

A lot.

When he graduates in the future, if his teammates are strong enough, Hyuga Neji plans to directly take the Chunin Exam.

After practicing in the "King of Fighting" challenge, Hyuga Neji has obviously improved his positioning a lot. Especially in this year's all-age group competition, he feels that he has gained a lot.

Unfortunately, the classmates in the class seemed to be unable to keep up with him. Uchiha Sasuke responded perfunctorily, obviously unable to answer such a topic.

Besides, he didn't have much friendship with Hyuga Neji. After smiling, Xiang Lian replied: "Senior is right, Uzami is actually very powerful, and most of the usual discussions are measured. It just feels a bit mysterious, and it's hard to say what's going on in my heart.

talk."

"It's all a small matter. It solves an urgent need. We have to thank her afterwards."

"Of course." Uchiha Sasuke nodded in agreement. It turned out that he was still an immature boy who knew how to repay his kindness and his mind was not completely distorted by hatred.

"Let's write this down for the time being. Our most important thing is how to pass the current level." The next opponent of the team from the Kosovo Institute is the Suna Ninja team. They are already senior genin with more than a year of mission experience. This can be compared with each other.

The new ninja team sent by the Ninja Village to gain experience and gain reputation is different.

With the strength of Karin, Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji, it is relatively safe to deal with the average genin team, but it is definitely not easy. When encountering tough opponents, you have to use all your strength.

Last year, Haku led Konishi and Yayoi to dominate the youth group. Kaguya Kimimaro easily swept all age groups, which made everyone wonder.

The mentality of "I can do whatever I want". As a result, as soon as I appeared on the stage this year, I was slapped on the head. Although I was obviously stronger, the fight was more difficult.

In addition to the fact that the strength of all age groups is much higher, it is also because the overall level of the participants this year has improved.

For example, the brown-haired ninja with upturned nostrils not far away looked like he was short-lived and conceited. He looked like he would go back to his hometown to propose marriage to the girl he likes after winning the game and become a winner in life. After watching it,

I just want to flatten it.

"Old rule, I'll go first! I don't need to use my advantages in physical strength and chakra in vain. My recovery ability is much better than yours. If they are trash fish, I will sweep them all by myself. If there are really masters, I can also consume them more.

With your physical strength, you have a better chance of winning." Facing senior ninjas who are three or four years older than themselves, the three of them have already suffered a lot and understand that this is not the time to show off their strength. It is the right thing to use their strengths and avoid their weaknesses to go further.

"You two, don't worry! We lost to Bai last year and didn't win. In fact, there aren't many top players who stand out from the crowd this year. Theoretically, we have hope of reaching the top. We just have to find some reliable way to do it like before.

, no matter how hard you fight, it will definitely not work. If you don’t get a good ranking in the rematch, you will suffer a lot in the final schedule..."

"Okay!" Hyuga Neji and Uchiha Sasuke also wanted to go on stage early and not let the girls take the lead. However, it is so difficult to win the championship. Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata were much stronger than they originally were.

Neji wasn't even sure.

If you participate in the all-age group at the age of the youth group, you will naturally be at a disadvantage. Especially in this high-intensity competition system, adults may not be able to persist.

After making up her mind, Xiangling stepped onto the ring and saw not far away, Qi Gushan Bushui's shoulder, holding two bunches of candied haws with one hand and pinching them with the other while licking the corners of his mouth without delay.

Hiiragi who cheers for his sister.

Seeing that the sugar juice on his hands was covered with his father's hair, forehead and cheeks, who was looking sad, Xiang Phosphorus couldn't help but smile, and then waved to his sister to indicate that he had seen it.

Then, Xiao Hiiragi became more and more excited, dancing and urging his father to come forward.

"Being able to accurately find your sister's location among so many people is considered your skill." Gushan Bushui smiled bitterly and slowly moved forward among the crowd.

The acuity of Kohigi's secret blood technique and Kagura's mind has greatly exceeded Gusugi Bushui's expectations.

The sensitivity of this kind of perception has even reached the point of sensing emotions, anger, sorrow and joy from a distance. Once he does something bad and makes his father and mother unhappy, the little guy will always react immediately and pretend to be

You look so guilty, you can get away with it.

Chakra sensing to this point is almost the difference between ordinary diners and gourmets. The former can only judge the sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and whether it is delicious, while the latter can clearly distinguish the details of the taste and what kind of seasoning it is.

The father and daughter were wandering around the tourist food court of Yuqi Island, which was as lively as a temple fair, eating, drinking, and walking around. When the match between Xiang Ling and his team was about to begin, Xiao Hiiragi took Gushan Bushui and headed straight for the destination.

Come.

This kind of innate perception is indeed too strong. Gu Shan Bu Shui had to activate a series of secret techniques to reach this level, and there is no ability to rely on instinctive perception.

After getting closer, Xiao Hiiragi saw a brown boy coming on the opposite side from the Suna Ninja.

"That person is no match for my sister."

"How do you know?" Gushan Bushui asked unexpectedly,

"That big brother looks a bit strong."

"Strong on the outside but capable on the inside."

"Who taught you this word?"

"Someone on the roadside said, remember." Well, children at this age are extremely curious and very keen on imitating adults.

Maybe Xiaohiira doesn't fully understand the meaning of this word, but he already understands when to use it.

"You are so smart. You usually teach your two younger sisters more, but they don't react as quickly as you."

"Huh! You're stupid, you don't understand even after I told you several times!" When it comes to this, Xiaoyi feels a little depressed. He teaches his sister quite a lot, but many of them can't be taught, and even the two of them are not interested.

Xiao Hiiragi, who speaks enthusiastically, is also a bit unmotivated.

"That's why you have to be patient. There's nothing special about a skill that you can learn once you've been taught it..."

"Hmm!" I don't know if he understood it, but the little guy didn't stop talking, and he couldn't take his eyes off the competition between Xiang Lian and the sand ninja named Daimaru opposite him.

The course of the competition was indeed as Xiaohiira expected. Daimaru's speed, explosive power and experience were slightly higher than those of Karin, but his weaknesses were also obvious. He had no decisive trump card, poor wind release and half-baked sand ninjutsu.

Neither of them are very suitable for an arena duel.

The combat strategy of Xiang Phosphorus is also very simple. Defend and counterattack more efficiently, consuming the opponent's physical strength and chakra more efficiently. Although the water escape is slightly suspected of being restrained, its flexibility is still very good.

After nearly five or six minutes of high-intensity duel, Kosovo released two ninja dogs, Sesshomaru and Shinshimaru, and began to fight back.

Daimaru, who was exhausted, was so consumed by the attack that his movements were deformed. He was knocked off the ring neatly under the pressure attack of Xiang Phosphorus.

After winning a match, Xiao Hiiragi's little face suddenly showed a bright smile, and his eyes were filled with joy. After a while, he asked curiously: "Father, when can I be like my sister?"

"You want to try too? This won't work. It's too young. When you are as old as my sister, it will be almost done."

"Then we need... one, two, three..." After counting with his fingers, Xiao Hiiragi said aggrievedly,

"Seven years is such a long time!"

"Who taught you to count? You actually know that seven years is a long time..."

"My grandfather taught me to buy me a few sticks if I can count them..." Okay! This little guy can burst out of his poor potential just for food.

"It's not just seven years, you have to go to school and learn many skills. My sister also worked hard for many years before she had the opportunity."

"I want to go to school too!"

"It's too early. You have to go to school with your two sisters. You can also take care of them then."

"Then...okay!" The parents were talking, but Gu Shan Bu Shui's heart tightened. There seemed to be a strange power in the little guy's body. With the performance of Xiang Phosphorus, his mind was stirred and became active.

The vigilant Gu Shanbu Shui stretched out his right hand and patted the little guy's back gently, about to infiltrate chakra into his body. To see what happened, he felt his wrist tighten, and several small silver chakras appeared.

The chain wrapped around my father's outstretched hand.

"King Kong Blockade? How can such a young body be activated?" This thing not only requires high control, but also requires a lot of chakra. Although Xiaoyi's qualifications are good, this is too exaggerated.

It is not impossible for the King Kong Blockade, which specializes in dealing with tailed beasts and chakra monsters, to awaken naturally, but it will only bear fruit after reaching a certain level of strength.

Seeing the little guy acting like a normal person, eating candied haws and watching the game, he was completely unaware of his instinctive protection and refused his father's chakra detection.

"If I can give an explanation of the fate of the Uzumaki clan, it is that the essence of the whole clan is almost concentrated in Uzumaki Naruto. If this is the case, why is a guy with such extraordinary talents like Xiaohiira born?

"This kind of talent is a disaster rather than a blessing for an ordinary family. But it is different when it comes to the Gushan family.

"Perhaps they are not all from the Uzumaki clan. Your Furusugi clan is actually quite troublesome..." Otsutsuki Kaguya said, seemingly guessing what Fushibu Shui was thinking.

"If you don't have any special abilities, I won't promote your ancestors to confidants."
