Sunovians instantly pulled out a couple of small fans and spun around himself a whirlwind of many wind blades without any seals. The dark-skinned man, covered in lightning, was quick to close the distance, but after receiving several cuts from the blades, which turned out to be very dangerous, he hurriedly retreated.
The advantage of the elements was in the favor of the genin from Suna, but the mobility of the enemy brought the advantage to naught - a couple of jutsu launched from fans simply did not reach the target.
The Suna genin hastily retreated to the wall, fending off a melee attacker who tried to take advantage of the moment, and froze in a defensive stance. Obviously, he was not going to attack first and was giving the initiative to his opponent.
It was a smart decision - maintaining the cover consumes a decent amount of chakra, and all its advantages can be realized only in close proximity, which is very difficult to do without running into the opponent's techniques.
Kumovets tried throwing kunai and shuriken covered with lightning, but the other genin had no problem fending them off, having also covered his weapons with elemental chakra and also fending off a couple of lightning jutsu.
Obviously, the swarthy guy didn't know any other element, but he didn't hesitate for long, rushing in a semicircle to the wall and then to the other side, but he didn't stop and quickly ran up the wall, hitting his opponent from above.
Sunovians swung his fans, but most of the air blades went into the milk or cut through the stone of the wall, only a couple of them hitting the attacker and striking his side and leg, losing some of their killing power while overcoming the defense. He couldn't dodge the melee attacker who was falling on him and crossed his fans over his head, taking the blow of a blindingly shining hand.
For a single moment they froze, and then the fan-master's left arm snapped up and the crushing blow landed on his shoulder, breaking bones, only slightly softened by the weapon. With a painful shriek, both genin flew to the ground, but only the Kumovian stood up with difficulty, holding his side and landing on his wounded leg. Even the cover was extinguished, allowing his bloody clothes and tattered appearance to be seen.
- The winner is Tora Nagamatsu of Kumogakure no Sato! - appeared next to the referee, but did not invite the next contestants, instead turning to the stands. - Dear guests, the first round of the third stage of the chunin exam is over, before the start of the second round of fights, half an hour break, thank you for your attention! - The chakra-enhanced voice of the jonin resounded through the stadium.
Having said his piece, the shunshin shinobi left the arena.
