Chapter 503 Broken face

"Cough!"

A cough sounded out of place.

Before Cai could do anything, the bone knife stopped strangely in front of Cai's chest.

That's right, stop.

Literal stop.

This sudden scene made Cai's expression slightly stunned, and the cold arc in her eyes also disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.

Suddenly a sickly pale color appeared on Jun Malu's face, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, he staggered back two steps with the bone knife in his hand, then his knees softened, and he knelt down in front of Cai, spitting out a mouthful of blood on the ground.

The bones of the whole body began to shrink, and slowly retracted into the body, and the body began to tremble slightly as if it was cold.

"Ahem!"

There were two more coughs, which seemed to be mixed with painful groans. Jun Malu covered his mouth with his hands, blood seeped into his fingers and dripped slowly, and his long white hair fell down.

"Your body..."

Cai was stunned for a while, and then realized immediately, she looked at Junma Lu who was kneeling in front of her with surprised eyes, her face full of disbelief.

The other party is sick.

And very sick!

Cai's mind instantly judged the state of Kimaro's body.

Abnormally pale complexion, vomiting blood without warning, it would be too far-fetched to say that the previous Shenkong strike began to slowly take effect in Junma Lu's body.

Jun Malu's bone hardness is enough to remove most of the force from his Shenkong strike. Even if the internal organs are damaged, it is impossible to cause such an injury and make the opponent vomit blood.

Then, the only answer I can think of is illness.

The opponent is dragging a seriously ill body to participate in the finals of this joint Chunin exam.

Facing Cai's question, Jun Malu was unable to give any response, but just knelt there, vomiting blood non-stop, and the loose white hair made his figure look both desolate and pitiful.

Everyone on the audience stand also stood up one after another, wanting to see clearly what was going on.

As the representative of Kirigakure Village, Terumi Mei, who visited the Chunin Exam Finals, also stood up from his seat. After a change in expression, he turned to look at Shiraishi and said:

"Your Excellency Shiraishi, please stop this contest immediately and announce that Kimomaro has abstained!"

Baishi was taken aback for a moment, then picked up the radio next to him, and said:

"Onijima, stop this match and announce that player Kaguykun Maro has abstained."

Shinobi Onijima, who was on the playing field, received Shiraishi's order through the radio, without hesitation, immediately stepped forward and inserted between Aya and Kimomaro, preventing the progress of the game.

"Sorry, because of the sudden incident, Kaguykun Maro from Wuyin Village abstained from this competition, and the winner is Chiba Aya."

Shinobu Onijima gestured to the medical ninjas outside the barrier, and explained to the surrounding audience with a headset-style radio receiver.

Although this may make some viewers feel dissatisfied, after all, the battle is at a critical moment, and the sudden request to interrupt the game will indeed affect the perception of many viewers.

However, seeing Junmaro vomiting blood at this time, Onijima Shinobu also knew that the opponent could not continue the game.

Moreover, this is an order from Shiraishi himself. No matter in terms of reason or rules, he can only obey the arrangement above.

"Hey, what's going on there?"

"That is to say, why did you stop fighting all of a sudden?"

"There must be some shady plot here, right?"

Many spectators on the audience stage expressed their dissatisfaction with this and began to make noise.

Some people even began to discredit the fairness of this final, and the host, Ghost Kingdom, naturally bear the brunt.

"Why didn't you fight? That Junmaro, did he fall into some plot?"

Naruto on the observation deck asked with a puzzled face.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a close battle, and the fighting skills of both sides are very superb. Although there are no gorgeous ninjutsu, there is only a physical jutsu duel.

But it is precisely because of this flesh-to-body physical collision that it makes people feel more excited.

Therefore, this feeling of being in high spirits and being suddenly cooled down by someone pouring a basin of cold water made Naruto feel very uncomfortable.

"No, it shouldn't be some conspiracy, but the player named Jun Ma Lu, who has some physical problems."

Kakashi narrowed his eyes and expressed his opinion.

And even if there is a conspiracy, it is impossible for the kingdom of ghosts to make it so obvious, it will only lose face.

Besides, the ninja power who participated in the war with the kingdom of ghosts does not need to use such small tricks to ensure his victory.

It can only be said that this was an accident that happened by chance.

"Really, the worst possibility still happened. Tell him clearly, don't push yourself so hard. Once you meet a strong opponent, just forget about the fact that you are sick, troublesome brat."

Kirigakure Kami no Zabuza snorted softly, as if he was very dissatisfied with Junmaro's self-inflicted behavior.

"Mr. Zabuku, now is not the time to talk about such things. Junma Lu is in danger of his life at any time."

Bai said seriously.

Suigetsu let go of the straw in his mouth and said, "Even so, there is nothing we can do about it. Besides, bringing Kimaro here must have the purpose of healing. From this point of view, abstention is the best result."

"Yeah, although it's a pity, this is the best way to deal with Kimaro. We can't let his temper delay the illness any longer."

Bai sighed lightly and nodded slightly.

On the competition field, Kimaro has been taken away by the medical ninja, leaving only Aya and Onijima Shinobi, the chief examiners, on the field.

Seeing Junma Lu being taken away by the medical ninja, Cai didn't know what state of mind she was in at the moment.

After finally meeting an opponent who made her feel excited, she turned out to be a sick young man who was about to die. This fact made Cai a little bit unacceptable.

He felt that Jun Ma Lu, like himself, should still have a stronger killer hidden and not used it.

So this kind of game won without a fight, Cai couldn't be happy at all.

"What are you doing? Fortunately, I am still looking forward to his next moves."

Cai said these words depressed.

However, at the end Cai also showed a look of worry and concern.

"That guy, should be all right?"

Onijima Shinobu heard Cai's murmur, and said ambiguously: "Well, it's hard to say about this matter. The other party's illness may not be simple. But no matter what, if Master Shiraishi is willing to take action, it should not be a problem."

For Shiraishi's medical technology, Onijima Shinobu has full confidence.

In this world, there is no disease or injury that Shiraishi cannot solve.

If even Shiraishi can't solve it, then it is meaningless to go to the rest of the medical ninjas.

For the people in the kingdom of ghosts, Shiraishi's status in the medical field is like the status of Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, in Konoha Village. He is the greatest enemy of "Reaper"!

Cai put away his worries, anyway, this unfinished battle made him feel rather regretful.

If the opponent can recover, we must fight him seriously again.

On the wide platform where the spectators were seated, Shiraishi also stood at the foreground, explaining the sudden situation of the match.

"I'm sorry, audience, because player Kaguykunmaro was seriously ill before the game, which made him physically unable to continue fighting. According to the unanimous discussion and decision of the organizers, in this game, player Kaguykunmaro will abstain. Please forgive me for any inconvenience caused to the audience. Then, the next game is now going on, which is also the final of Group A. Please enjoy it."

Although Baishi has already explained this way, there are many people in the audience who don't buy it.

In this regard, Shiraishi has no good solution.

You can't force Junma Lu to go on stage at this time and continue fighting.

Although he didn't know what happened to Jun Malu, the state of vomiting blood was not an easy problem to solve.

Really, that guy Yagura should have told me earlier. Baishi complained slightly in his heart.

But I also know that it is a bit too impolite to directly entrust him, a high-level executive of the ghost country, just because a ninja in the village is sick.

Moreover, even if the two parties are in an alliance relationship, in many cases, interests and face issues still need to be calculated separately.

Perhaps Yagura didn't want to give him a bad impression of Kirigakure's incompetence.

Regarding the issue of the face of the village, it is really not easy to entrust help to other forces until the last moment.

Not to mention Yagura, even he sometimes knows that it might be better to entrust some work to Kirigakure, but it is actually impossible to do so, and he will only make such a decision when he has to.

"Sorry to trouble you."

Terumi Mei had an apologetic look on her face.

"It's okay, after all, no one wants this to happen."

Besides, the winner of this competition is his own son, and Shiraishi is inconvenient to criticize Kirigashi for concealing the fact that the player is seriously ill.

On the other hand, Ayane's expression was not very good-looking.

Because this would leave some disgraceful 'stains' on Cai's body.

In the eyes of laymen, the situation just now is very unfavorable to Cai, and there is a tendency that the winner will be decided soon, so Jun Malu's illness is not at the right time, giving people a bad impression that Cai entered the semi-finals by luck.

But in the eyes of ninjas with vision, they will give an evaluation that the two sides are evenly matched, and both of them still have spare power, and the final outcome is unpredictable.

As a result, Ayane can't wait to rush forward and use her fists to teach these laymen's heads how to speak politely.

But in that case, it will be even more impossible to wash it off.

So, Ayane sat on the seat, kept shaking her legs, and clenched her fists tightly, causing the temperature of the surrounding air to keep dropping. Not only that, but the surrounding ninjas also felt chills down their backs and fidgeted restlessly on their chairs, fearing that the other party would get mad here if they didn't agree with each other, and violently dismember the entire hall.

Fortunately, Ayane finally restrained herself. After all, if she really did what she had in mind, it would only cause more trouble.

"You are so lucky, Cai, it seems that the idea of making both of you lose-lose has been wiped out."

As soon as Cai walked back to the observation deck, she heard Asuka's joking laughter, which seemed to be a wry smile.

According to his original thinking, no matter who advances, Aya or Junmaro will end up seriously injured in the end.

In that way, when it comes to the finals of Group B, his odds of winning will be a little higher.

And now Jun Malu has abstained due to illness. Although Cai has a lot of wounds on her body, they are all insignificant skin trauma and are in good condition.

This has to make Asuka recalculate, what is the winning percentage when he fights Cai later.

"Don't talk about me like that, Brother Asuka, you know I'm in a bad mood right now."

Cai exhaled lightly, and there seemed to be a bit of resentment in her eyes.

"Understood, you don't need to care about those people's opinions, as long as you stick to your beliefs."

Asuka patted Cai on the shoulder, telling him not to mind the strange eyes of some people with ulterior motives.

As a family member, he is very aware of how strong Cai is. Although there is an element of luck, if it is really just luck, Cai will not be able to easily reach this point in the finals.

Those who maliciously slander, don't have to pay attention to it at all.

The strength of the kingdom of ghosts is not for these people to show.

"Kuzhi, it's your turn again. If you win this game, only the final is left. That Konoha's yellow hair is a bit weird, so be careful."

On the other side, Hua Jianyao reminded Wu Zhi beside her, with a slightly solemn expression.

There are only two ninja candidates left in group A, one is Kirie, and the other is Naruto, who surprised many people.

Before the exam started, Hanami Haruka, like most people, was not optimistic that Naruto could stand out from the many elite ninjas.

However, in such a situation that many people were not optimistic about, Naruto made it all the way to the semi-finals.

If it is said that Yumeshi was defeated by despicable means, then the battle with Gaara made many people start to face up to Naruto's strength.

Naruto's fluctuating level of strength is really a bit unpredictable.

It should be said that this is a symptom unique to Injuriki.

Once you use the Chakra of the Tailed Beast, you will be completely different.

This is what Hanami Haruka was worried about.

It is precisely because Naruto's strength is ambiguous that it makes people feel tricky.

"Don't worry, I'm not alone. I'm going down."

Wuzhi nodded and walked down.

"I'm almost done too, I'm going down, Kakashi-sensei, Sakura."

When Kirie went down, Naruto also stood up from the ground, stretched his muscles and bones twice, greeted Kakashi and Sakura, and walked down the stairs to the observation deck.

"Be careful, Naruto, especially remember to protect your head."

Sakura took care of Naruto's back.

She remembered that in the finals, Wuzhi smashed the heads of Xiao Li and Sasuke to the ground like waste products.

The violent and **** fighting style left a very deep impression on Sakura and the audience present.

So when Naruto was off, she specially reminded Naruto to protect his head.

"Semi-finals, I didn't expect Naruto to reach this ranking..."

Kakashi sighed softly there.

Although Jiraiya's teachings in the past few days did allow Naruto to acquire psychic skills, and the half-baked spiral pill greatly increased Naruto's strength, but without the help of Kyuubi Chakra, it is obvious that Naruto stopped in Gaara's battle.

It can be seen that if Naruto wants to move forward, he can only use the power of Nine Tails again in this game.

But using Tailed Beast Chakra one after another, even Naruto's body, will be too much.

"Don't worry, look around those compatriots who came from afar, they are all secretly cheering for Naruto."

Asma pointed to the Konoha ninjas in the surrounding auditorium and smiled.

"I didn't expect that mischievous kid who was hated by people in the past would be welcomed one day. Kakashi, what kind of magic have you used in the past six months to make him reborn?"

Hong couldn't help sighing.

Turning his head to look at Kakashi, asking for Kakashi's education method.

Compared to Kakashi's teaching ability, she doesn't know how to teach the students in the group, but can only teach them some basic experience.

"Well, this is a bit of a long story... Well, how should I put it, it feels like it's just a very common way of education, nothing special..."

Kakashi, who wanted to share his teaching experience with Asma and Hong, suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Because of Naruto's teaching method, not everyone can learn it.

Personal foundation is there, plus there is a powerful killer like Nine Tails in his body, as long as he finds the right method of cultivation, his strength will naturally improve by leaps and bounds.

It took less than a week to learn the super-difficult level ninjutsu of Heliwanwan, which is also one of the achievements of the successful teaching.

In addition to Naruto, Kakashi couldn't think of anyone else who could learn the method of using the Shadow Clone Technique.

Ninjas like Naruto can only be treated as an example and cannot be popularized.

As everyone knows, his words made Asma and Hong slightly shut themselves off.

Nothing special... Sure enough, it was something Kakashi would say.

"And, welcome to this kind of thing..."

Kakashi looked at the Konoha ninjas in the auditorium who secretly encouraged Naruto, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what to say.

Because this originally belonged to Naruto's honor as the son of Hokage.

Naruto should have had a complete and happy childhood, and as the son of a hero, he was cared for tenderly by the villagers.

Although Naruto himself didn't know about it, if this phantom can continue, Naruto's situation in the village will improve a little bit.

Despite this improvement, it sounds a bit self-defeating.

On the field, Naruto and Wuzhi had already stood still.

Sure enough, he is a very strange guy. Looking at Wu Zhi's beautiful face with tightly closed eyes, Naruto murmured.

Although it is clear that the opponent can walk and fight with his eyes closed, it is not a problem, but Naruto is still curious.

"Game start."

Shinobu Onijima yelled at this moment, signaling the official start of the game.

Naruto suppressed his wild thoughts, formed seals with both hands, and mobilized Chakra.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

The sound of bang bang bang was continuous, and shadow avatars that were exactly the same as Naruto's body rushed out of the smoke one after another, holding kunai, and ran towards Wuzhi.

Wuzhi's body sank slightly. Instead of taking out a bamboo tube covered with spells to deal with the enemy as before, he stepped lightly on the ground with his feet, and his body lost traces on the spot like a breeze.

"ah!"

On the straight road, holding Kunai's Naruto clone, before realizing what happened, the whole person seemed to have encountered a tornado, flew into the sky, and then hit the ground heavily, turning into white smoke and disappearing.

Wuzhi charged all the way up, an astonishing force erupted from his small body, broke through the defensive position of the shadow clone from the front, rushed to Naruto's rear in the blink of an eye, and carried out a frontal surprise attack.

So fast! Naruto was startled.

Preparing to raise his arm, he began to lunge forward with the kunai he was grasping tightly.

Wuzhi rushed to Naruto, lowered his head slightly, his black hair danced wildly, Kunai only split a strand of hair, which didn't hurt her at all.

Wuzhi bent down slightly, took this opportunity, aimed at Naruto's abdomen, and slapped cleanly.

"Well!"

A painful cry came from Naruto's mouth, and he rolled backwards. During the rolling process, Naruto disappeared into a puff of white smoke unbearably.

Shadow clone.

Knowing this, Wuzhi turned her head slightly, and a Naruto pounced on her back holding Kunai from behind.

Wuzhi twisted her body, allowing Kumi to pass in front of her face at a distance of a few millimeters.

Afterwards, Wuzhi quickly reached out and grabbed Naruto's arm holding Kunai, and bent his knee upward.

Click!

The sound of bones breaking.

Naruto's arm broke directly and twisted into a ball.

boom.

Not surprisingly, this Naruto also disappeared into white smoke.

Still a shadow clone.

Wuzhi looked at the extra Naruto clones around him who didn't know when, and counted silently, there were about thirty of them. They formed a circle, surrounded her, and Naruto's body was hidden inside, waiting for an opportunity to act.

"Why, did it make you feel embarrassed? The good show is just about to start now."

Dozens of Naruto spoke together, making it even more difficult for Wuzhi to distinguish which one is the real body.

Facing this kind of shadow avatar that can condense entities, it is difficult to distinguish even Baiyan and Sharingan.

"Everyone, let's go together!"

After finishing speaking, dozens of shadow clones held Kunai and rushed towards Wuzhi like wolves and tigers, making an overwhelming momentum.

Based on momentum alone, Wuzhi is undoubtedly on the disadvantaged side.

But surrounded by dozens of people, Wuzhi showed no impatience or tension on his face, and still looked very calm.

When dozens of Naruto were about to press on her body, Wuzhi's eyes suddenly opened.

The moment he opened his eyes, a black mist came from nowhere, covering Wuzhi's body.

Thin, like endless darkness.

In the depths of the darkness, a pair of **** eyes shone like karma, shining brightly.

Boom!

The ground collapsed, causing the many shadow clones rushing forward to stagnate.

A red and white figure leaped out of the black mist, the clear and beautiful face was covered by a pale and strange mask, like the incarnation of a demon.

"Damn it!"

As if unhappy that he was intimidated by this level of bluff, Naruto's shadow avatars, after a moment of trance, charged again, wanting to encircle them again and take down Wuzhi, who had changed his image greatly.

Wuzhi leaped forward, so fast that even the afterimage disappeared, a shadow clone didn't see anything, and his body flew out.

The shadow clone that flew out also hit the other two shadow clones, and immediately exploded and disappeared.

Then, she turned around, and her figure appeared behind the two Naruto like a ghost, one with each hand, grabbed the back of their heads, and pressed them against the ground.

boom!

The two Naruto bodies exploded and disappeared.

"Isn't it the ontology?"

Wuzhi read without emotion, and his **** eyes, shining with karma, quickly swept across the surrounding Naruto.

"So"

Wuzhi's figure disappeared again, maintaining a high-speed movement invisible to the naked eye.

A Naruto was pinched by the throat by her, and she lifted it from the ground with one hand, and held it in the air.

Amidst the painful groans, the Naruto exploded.

Wuzhi maintains a raised posture.

"Isn't this one too?"

After that, the shadow clones quickly disappeared from the field at a rate of one or even two per second.

After more than ten seconds, there was only the last Naruto standing there alone.

"Only you are left."

Wuzhi raised his heels slightly, which was the starting posture.

"Don't underestimate people!"

Naruto quickly threw two kunai forward.

Unsurprisingly, Wuzhi dodged sideways, dodged in front of Naruto, grabbed Naruto by the throat, and pushed him to the ground.

Pressing the opponent's hands with his knees, Wuzhi then covered Naruto's neck with his left hand, and pressed Naruto's throat with both hands, so that he could not breathe.

"it's over."

"I've said it all, don't underestimate...people..."

Even though he was breathing hard, Naruto forced a smile on his face.

Exploded with a bang.

Seeing that his hands were empty, Naruto under him once again dissipated into a puff of white smoke. At this moment, in the depths of the black hole-like pupils of Wuzhi, the eyes burning like karma trembled, and he was shaken.

Shadow clone?

It seems that something has come to mind. There is nothing wrong with the two Kunai who flew out just now.

Wuzhi turned around quickly.

"Screw pill!"

Naruto's energetic voice resounded loudly on the field.

In his right hand, with the assistance of a shadow clone, a blue chakra ball slightly larger than the palm was condensed, aiming at Wuzhi's face, and pressing it heavily.
