Chapter 41: One Kick at a Time
"You want to fight in close combat? Delusional!" Dosu roared.
At this moment, his right hand, like his left, was aimed directly at Lee. Both palms had a small opening.
"Slicing Sound Wave!"
Both Slicing Sound Waves activated simultaneously, their doubled power creating an air shockwave that stopped Lee's forward momentum.
Rock Lee quickly retreated, dodging the shockwave.
However, the strong winds generated by the shockwave still caused him to stumble.
"Hahahaha..." Dosu laughed loudly, "Repent! A good-for-nothing who doesn't understand Ninjutsuhas no right to be a Ninja! Taijutsu... will never be enough!"
The bushy-browed Lee, his blood boiling, was about to retort when he heard a leisurely voice, "Who said Taijutsu isn't enough?"
The two teams, six people in total, turned to look.
Lee: "Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura~" As he mentioned Sakura, a blush appeared on Lee's face.
Kizaru was stunned. Is this another young man who likes this broad-foreheaded, violent girl?
Seriously... what's wrong with this world?
"Kid, you're saying pure Taijutsu is useful?" Dosulooked at Kizaru with a gloomy expression, "Then prove it to me!"
Kizaru formed hand signs and used the Transformation Technique, transforming into his original appearance!
"The purpose of the Transformation Technique is disguise. You transforming like this is just for laughs!"
Kizaru's mouth twisted into a earth-shattering grin, "Haven't you heard? First, use a majestic physique to intimidate your opponent with your aura?"
At this moment, Kizaru, nearly 3 meters tall, looked down at Dosu from a height!
Dosu looked up at Kizaru and indeed felt a sense of oppression.
Could a massive physique really have such an effect?
Dosu was a little skeptical, but... Dosu aimed both hands at Kizaru, "Then prove it to me! 'Extreme Slicing Sound Wave'!"
A massive air pressure was generated, instantly kicking up dust and stones. The stones at the center were even ground into powder, and the destructive power was terrifying.
Sasuke, Sakura, Neji, Tenten, and others quickly retreated!
Hyuga Neji's mind was filled with thought: The power of this technique is somewhat similar to my Hyuga Clan's Eight Trigrams Empty Palm. I haven't learned it yet, but I can use it as a reference.
Kizaru still had a smile on his face, "There are two main ways for Taijutsu to deal with Ninjas who excel at mid-to-long range Taijutsu..."
"The first is to clash with them using similar mid-to-long range Taijutsu, 'Tempest Kick'!" Kizaruleaped high and delivered a kick.
A wave of light, like a sword strike, shot out!
Whoosh!
The Tempest Kick's sword energy collided with the Slicing Sound Wave's wind pressure, splitting it in two. Then, without losing momentum, it directly grazed Dosu's chest.
Although its power was no longer as strong as when it first left his foot, it still left a shocking wound on Dosu's body!
What!!!!
Not only Dosu, but even Lee and Neji were stunned!
As Taijutsu masters, Neji and Lee were very aware of how rare such long-range offensive Taijutsu techniques were. Each one was almost inextricably linked to being difficult to master.
When did Naruto, the Loser of the academy, master this kind of Ninjutsu?
No matter what they thought, Kizaru was now in high spirits.
"The second is to use extreme speed to force a close-quarters fight!'Soru'!"
A gentle breeze swept across the ground, and Kizaru's figure vanished from his original spot, appearing in front of Dosu.
"Finger Pistol!" Kizaru slowly uttered these two words, then quickly jabbed two fingers into Dosu's shoulders.
Two bloody holes appeared, gushing blood.
Dosu screamed, clutching his shoulders, writhing in pain on the ground!
Neji's brow furrowed even deeper. Besides that bushy-browed, passionate Loser, were there other such Taijutsu masters among the Genin of the Village?
He understood clearly... these three new Taijutsu techniques were definitely a complete system in themselves, and their power was extraordinary!
It seems... I must find an opportunity to spar with him.
As for fighting Ninjas from his own Village in the Death Forest... only an idiot would do that!
Does he want to go back and be punished by Hokage-sama?
At this moment, Dosu and Gin, the two OtogakureNinjas who had been watching the show, now became seriously vigilant.
Initially, in their subconscious, Dosu's strength was not weak, and he should have been able to easily deal with these Konoha brats.
However, what they didn't expect was that Dosuwas the one who got taken care of first!
What surprised them even more was... the speed at which that guy dealt with Dosu was simply too fast; they couldn't even manage to rescue him!
"Oh my, such scary expressions, but I'm not interested in you two!" Kizaru chuckled, eyeing the nervous Otogakure duo.
He turned to Rock Lee, "I can tell your Taijutsu isn't bad. Are you interested in sharing your training methods with me?"
Kizaru's goal was simple: in Taijutsu training, mutual exchange and verification lead to faster progress.
Rock Lee nodded. He was also willing to exchange with such a powerful Taijutsu Ninja, and he strongly agreed with what Kizaru had just said.
In fact, he also had means to instantly approach Dosu and defeat his opponent with Taijutsu; he just didn't want to expose his methods too early.
Kizaru's objective achieved, he turned to Dosu and Gin, as well as Dosu who was still writhing on the ground, "Well then, you annoying ones should just get lost!"
A flash of yellow light, and Kizaru's body instantly appeared beside Gin, delivering a kick!
Gin simply vanished from his spot.
Yellow light flashed repeatedly, and Dosu, as well as Dosu who was still writhing on the ground, followed Gin's fate.
The Otogakure trio were completely kicked away, disappearing from their original positions.
Truly... one kick per person!
"This speed..." Rock Lee was utterly shocked; he couldn't understand it at all!
He himself specialized in high-speed Taijutsu, but the opponent's speed still exceeded his comprehension.
Sasuke also had a look of disbelief. He had already activated his Sharingan, but he still couldn't discern a single clue.
Neji, who had activated his Byakugan, was the same!
Kizaru secretly glanced around.
What he saw were all shocked eyes, shocked expressions!
He was overjoyed.
Satisfied, so satisfied!
Less than three seconds after feeling happy, a deep sense of shame welled up in his heart again.
He, Kizaru, a dignified Admiral-level powerhouse, showing off in front of a few Genin who were like little radishes... what pleasure could that bring?
It was simply... mortifying!
But the feeling of showing off... could truly only be described with one word.
Awesome!
I really want to show off again, what should I do?
How about another... Just as this thought arose, Kizaru felt his Chakra was almost depleted.
Not daring to let his Chakra run out, Kizaruimmediately released the Transformation Technique!
He had used such swift and decisive methods earlier, also fearing that his Chakra would run out, leaving him at the mercy of others~
"soldier pill~"
Sakura looked at Kizaru's outstretched hand with a black line on her face. She pulled out a soldier pilland slapped it into Kizaru's hand, "I must have owed you in my past life!"
Neji, Tenten, and Lee were dumbfounded: That black ball, like an egg, was a soldier pill?
