Naruto: Konoha's Kanpu

Chapter 919: Hehe

"Dad, the ice around Big brother Neji is getting thicker and thicker."

On the noisy stand, Hanabi used her Byakugan and said anxiously, "I can't see him anymore."

"Yeah, if this continues, Neji will be buried in ice." Hiashi pointed out.

"Big brother Neji..." Below the main stand, Neji's other younger sister, Hinata, is also watching the game nervously with both hands clasped.

In the midst of the ice crystal torrent, Neji is still crazily revolving like a spinning top, bouncing back thousands of ice senbon with Revolving Heaven. However, as the number of ice needles around him increased, his expression grew more and more grim!

'Even if it is Absolute Defense, there is something that cannot be defended...' Neji feels very uncomfortable.

Since mastering Revolving Heaven, a technique passed down only within the Hyūga Clan's main family, he had considered himself a heaven's chosen, invincible against any Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, or Genjutsu. Yet here he was, being pushed to his limits by a relatively unknown opponent like Haku!

'I can't let this go on any longer!'

Neji used his 360-degree panoramic vision to scan his surroundings, and quickly found the weak spot in the onslaught. He then stopped using Revolving Heaven and charged headfirst towards it. His palms struck out to break through the wall of ice senbon, escaping from the encirclement in an instant!

"It's useless."

Haku said calmly as he redirected the torrent of ice senbon. They formed graceful arcs in the air, shooting towards Neji like moths to a flame.

Neji's expression changed slightly. With his Byakugan's panoramic vision, he didn't need to turn his head to see the attacks coming from all directions.

'I mustn't let myself be surrounded by his senbon...' Neji thoughts revolve, 'Using Kekkei Genkai like this must be consuming a lot of Chakra!'

With this in mind, Neji decisively started running wildly around the arena.

The torrent of ice crystals followed him like a white dragon in the air.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

However, Haku's brows furrowed slightly.

Controlling the ice senbon consumed a constant stream of chakra. So he knew that if he kept chasing Neji like this, his Chakra would be depleted before Neji's stamina ran out.

"Impressive, Hyūga-san." Haku reluctantly stopped his attack, and the ice senbon suddenly scattered all over the sky.

Neji saw this and, with a look of vindication, charged at Haku with his palms ready.

Haku stood still, forming a strange hand seal with his hands: "Secret Technique: Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals!"

Neji abruptly stopped, warily scanning his surroundings.

Neji deftly sidestepped and dodged the senbon easily. At the same time, he turned and rushed to the ice mirror closest to him on the left, but the ending remained the same... Dozens of senbon shots out of the ice mirror and forced him back again!

Neji continued to break out in various directions, but each attempt was thwarted by the ice senbon shooting out from the ice mirrors!

'Can he teleport within the ice mirrors?'

'In that case, I'll just destroy the ice mirrors!'

Neji used an Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, unleashing a Chakra shockwave and shattering one of the ice mirrors. Then, he immediately darted towards the gap, but at this moment, another ice mirror swiftly formed in its place, and at the same time, there are nearly a hundred senbon shot out from the surrounding ice mirrors!

Neji was forced back again!

'Damn it!'

Neji didn't even have time to curse, and quickly dodged the senbon shooting at him from behind, only to face more senbon from different directions.

'Charge... I can't break through.'

'Dodge... the space was limited.'

'Block... with Revolving Heaven?'

'Wouldn't that put me back in the same predicament as before?'

'What should I do?!'

Neji racked his brain for a solution.

"This is not good..." In the main stand, Fugaku frowned slightly, sensing he might be proven wrong soon.

"Hehe." Kanpū chuckled again.

Fugaku wasn't pleased by it.

Meanwhile, the spectators in the stands were mostly excited, cheering loudly.

As one of the Konoha Two Great Noble Clan, Hyuga Clan is well-known in the Shinobi World. Now, one of its members is about to be defeated by an Ice Release Shinobi. This is definitely big news!

For a while, the audiences discussed more fervently, and the cheers grew louder and louder!
