Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

Chapter 35 The Blooming Lotus Flower

Seeing the name on the electronic display, Gaara rushed to the training ground impatiently using Sand Instant, and urged his opponent to get off the field.

The murderous man also became a little aggressive because of the previous game. He couldn't wait to taste the blood on his opponent to soothe his restless heart.

After Gaara left the field, Kankuro also ran to Kaiban's viewing platform, trying to collect information about Qi Fei.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see in the last battle that the strengths of the two were no longer on the same level. If they hadn't been flying together, the match would have ended even faster.

Thinking that such a dangerous opponent might meet in the next round, Kankuro felt that he had to prepare in advance and collect more information.

He came to the viewing platform of Muye Village and put the object of obtaining information on Naruto.It's a pity that Naruto didn't want to chat with Kankuro too much, and he just said "I'm not interested in you", and Kankuro couldn't get off the stage.

[Isn't it an operation to ask Naruto for information and ask Sauron for directions? 】

On the other hand, although he is very confident in Xiao Li's strength, Kai also understands that Xiao Li's opponent this time is different from the past when he saw Qi Fei's serious look.

So in addition to cheering Li up, Kai also secretly told him about some of Gaara's seemingly obvious weaknesses, such as the big gourd behind him.

"Well, that's how it is! I understand, Teacher Kai!" Xiao Li said with a suddenly enlightened expression after listening to Kai's instruction.

"So you haven't noticed it all the time!" Sakura and Kakashi on the side couldn't listen any longer, and complained directly, "Li, is he really okay..."

"Very well, come on, Lee!"

"Oh!!"

Xiao Li roared angrily and jumped down, standing on the opposite side of Gaara.

"I didn't expect to be able to fight against you so soon, I'm so happy." Xiao Li said to Gaara.However, what I love to return to him is a gourd plug.

"Then, the last game, the game begins!"

Hearing the signal, Xiao Li rushed forward, starting with a "Whirlwind of Konoha".But Gaara's sand was faster, blocking in front of him in an instant, defusing Xiao Li's attack.

"Can you manipulate Sand's ninjutsu? It's a bit difficult to deal with. Then try it." Sand's defense is fast, but Xiao Li is confident that it can be faster than it.

After making a decision, he began to quickly attack from different dead angles.But the result was still the same as before, his attacks were constantly hindered and resolved by the sand.Gradually, the sand even began to try to surround Xiao Li in turn.

Realizing that his situation is very dangerous, Xiao Li quickly distanced himself from Gaara, but everything returned to the original point.

Gaara folded her hands on her chest and remained motionless the whole time, as if she was watching a clown performance, letting Xiao Li keep attacking herself.

"Li's attack is so fast, it's useless at all." Sakura and others watching the battle were surprised by Gaara's strange ninjutsu, "What's going on here?"

"Any physical attack is useless to that guy. It has nothing to do with Gaara's consciousness. The sand will automatically form a shield to protect his body." Kankuro, who was also at the viewing platform of Konoha Village, began to explain, "So, No one has hurt Gaara so far."

[I understand, "Ma Zuonenghu".By the way, didn’t you come here to scout for information? Why are you acting as a commentator...]

Seeing that no one thought it was wrong, Qi Fei complained inwardly.

As time went by, Xiao Li gradually discovered that Gaara's sand defense could not be broken in his current situation.So with Kay's permission, the weight that had been tied to the leg was removed.

"Let's go! Li!" With Kai's order, Xiao Li rushed to Gaara from a height in an instant.The inhuman speed even made Gaara a little unbelievable.

Under his high-speed attack, the situation was reversed in an instant, and this time it was Gaara's turn that Gaara's sand gradually couldn't keep up with Xiao Li's speed.

Under Xiao Li's constant inducement, Sand's defense appeared to be neutral. Xiao Li seized the opportunity and hit Gaara with his heel, which was a headshot.

"Youth is what you want, explode!" Encouraged by Kai's enthusiasm, Xiao Li continued his efforts and hit Gaara's head with his fist again, knocking Gaara to the ground.

The situation seemed to be improving, but after Gaara got up, everyone discovered that his face was covered with a layer of sand shell fragments.

"You actually covered yourself with sand..." Unexpectedly, even under Xiao Li's pressing step by step, Gaara was still unscathed.

"Heh, heh heh..." Gaara, who was broken from the "sand armor", revealed his ferocious face under his calm appearance, which made everyone feel worried about Xiao Li.

"No matter how fast I attack, it won't work this way. Then, I can only attack him strongly on the basis of those sands."

Knowing that his own attack is difficult to be effective against Gaara who has the "sand armor", Xiao Li decided to give it a go and untied the bandage that had been wrapped around his arm.

Huh—Xiao Li appeared next to Gaara in an instant, and spun around him at a very fast speed. When Gaara was defenseless, he kicked Gaara directly into the sky.

It seems that because of too much sand on his body, Gaara is extremely bulky, so Xiao Li can only kick him into the sky while enduring the severe pain in his body due to overload.In the end, he tied Gaara's body with a bandage with all his strength, turned upside down and spun and fell directly to the ground: "Biao Lianhua!!"

Boom—After a loud noise, only Gaara's shattered body and Xiao Li, who was panting continuously, remained in the center of the field where he was knocked out of the deep pit.

However, before Xiao Li had time to breathe a sigh of relief, he was surprised to find that Gaara in the pit began to shatter like a terracotta figurine.

"what?!"

"Hehehe..." Gaara's figure appeared behind Xiao Li again.He used a substitute technique at the moment when Xiao Li was distracted by the severe pain, avoiding Xiao Li's Biao Lianhua.

Gaara with a ferocious expression saw Xiao Li's very obvious weakness, changed his previous calmness, and actively controlled the sand to play and torture Xiao Li continuously.

Watching Xiao Li being constantly played and tortured by Gaara's sand, Kai resisted and did not stop the game.He believed in Xiao Li, and believed that in order to prove himself, he would persevere to the end with his own will.

Finally, under Xiao Li's unremitting persistence, he survived until the feeling of powerlessness caused by using Biaolianhua faded away.Showcasing that shocking speed again, dodging wave after wave of Gaara's attacks.

But thinking of his little physical strength left, Xiao Li made up his mind and decided to use his last trick.

He clasped his hands in front of him, and the aura of his body began to rise continuously.

"Although I don't know what you are going to do, but you are done here." Gaara once again controlled the sand and pressed towards Xiao Li.

"Yeah, no matter what, this trick will end later."

"Sasuke, Naruto, and Qi Fei, I can't be the only one who loses in this kind of place." Xiao Li's momentum began to rise rapidly, "Mr. Kai, please recognize me... Now is the time to implement my way of tolerance!"

"Qi Fei, I'll leave it to you from now on..." Xiao Li's body began to turn red due to the accelerated blood flow, "The third door, the door of life, open! The fourth door, the door of injury, open!"

Countless chakras circled around Xiao Li.After opening the Bamen Dunjia, Xiao Li bent his knees and rushed towards Gaara in an instant.

Before everyone could react, he kicked him into the sky again.The storm driven by the movement of the body made the audience blindfolded, and the violent force shattered the solid floor of the training ground in an instant.

Gaara, who was kicked into the sky, began to be covered with bruises, and the sand armor was very fragile under Xiao Li's attack.

"Is it Sand Armor again? Well, how about this one!"

When the sand on the floor had no time to react, Xiao Li appeared next to Gaara again, and kicked him to the ground; when Gaara was about to land, he stepped on the air, appeared behind Gaara, and kicked him again. Kick it to the sky...

In this way, Gaara was kicked by Xiao Li like a volleyball in a short time, bouncing in the air non-stop.The sand armor on his body is also constantly crumbling.

"This is the final blow! The fifth door, Du door, open!" Xiao Li braved the severe pain of his muscles torn, and opened his limit, "Qi Fei, although I have not been able to beat you before, but I Will never give up!"

Wrapping the bandage on Gaara's body, Xiao Li punched him hard, and then jumped to the ceiling with the reaction force.

The falling Gaara was entangled in bandages, and was pulled back to the sky again. After accumulating all his strength on the ceiling, Xiao Li fell from the sky and smashed Gaara hard with his fists and feet that gathered all his strength: "Li Lianhua!!!"

Boom boom boom—the shattered training ground shook again, and Gaara hit the ground heavily under Xiao Li's sacrifice.Xiao Li, bruised and bruised, rolled out of the smoke and dust, lying on the ground weakly and panting.

"It's time." Seeing that Xiao Li had played all his cards, Qi Fei knew that his work was coming.

Like the original, Gaara used a gourd filled with sand as a cushion at the last moment to barely catch Xiao Li's final blow.Now Xiao Li has completely lost his combat effectiveness, and he can no longer be Gaara's opponent.

"Fufufu..." Even with the sand as a buffer, Gaara was still severely injured, temporarily lying in the pit and unable to move.He raised his trembling hand with difficulty, controlled the sand and attacked Xiao Li.

"Li, call for surrender!" Qi Fei shouted directly.

However, Xiao Li did not accept Qi Fei's suggestion, and tried to move his hands and feet, which were almost disabled, to avoid Gaara's attack.But within a few steps, Gaara's sand caught up with him and dragged his hands and feet.

"Sand desert bier!!" Gaara clenched her fists.

"Ahhhh!!" Xiao Li howled in pain with his hands and feet crushed, and then lost consciousness, "I can't lose in this kind of place, I want...my ninja way..."

Seeing Xiao Li who was in a coma due to severe pain, Gaara did not let him go, but continued to control the overwhelming sand and rushed towards Xiao Li.

Ka Ka Ka - the next moment, the sand was fixed in the air as if time had been stopped, and then a thick layer of frost formed.

"Bingdun!" The familiar rescue method made everyone look at Qi Fei's position, but Qi Fei's figure had already disappeared in place, and appeared next to Xiao Li who fell on the ground.

[The left hand and left foot have comminuted fractures, the right hand and right foot have fractures, muscles are torn all over the body, internal organs are bleeding, and they are in shock. 】

Qi Fei instantly checked Xiao Li's injury with his supercilious eyes, and then used the soft fist technique to seal the tendons of his left hand and left foot, preventing the shattered bone fragments from flowing to other places through the blood vessels and tendons.

"You bastard!" The red-eyed Gaara saw someone stop him, got up and raised his hand again to control more sand waves rushing towards Qifei's position.

"Too bad, Qi Fei has nowhere to hide." Naruto who was watching the battle said in a panic.

Swish Ka Ka Ka - A trembling cold air swept across, and the turbulent sand waves froze instantly, and even Gaara, who was lying in the pit, maintained a hideous expression, and was instantly frozen in place.

"I love Luo!"

Seeing Gaara suddenly turned into an ice sculpture, the ninjas of Sand Hidden Village who had been calm all the time jumped onto the training ground in an instant, and hurriedly protected Gaara behind them.

Facing the vigilant and apprehensive eyes from Shayin Village, Qi Fei still turned his back to them and dealt with Xiao Li's injury.Under his treatment, Xiao Li quickly passed the danger of life.

"Gaara is so strong..." Naruto said in shock when he saw the people confronting each other and the huge ice sculpture on the field.

"I was frozen in an instant, and it seemed that I didn't even have time to resist..." It was not the first time Xiaoying saw Qi Fei use the ice escape, but she couldn't adapt to this powerless feeling.

"Is this really a ninja, Kai, how on earth did you bring out this group of monsters." Kakashi believes that theoretically, there will not be such a huge gap between the ninjas even after a year.

Although Kaiban is currently the only one who has advanced, it's not that they are weak, but that the opponent is too strong.Whenever they meet newcomers who are also Konoha Shinin, they will definitely pass through unscathed.

"Hey, hey, how do you fight this..." Shikamaru, who had a lucky bye in the qualifiers, suddenly wanted to give up the game.Except for Naruto and Sasuke, the others are simply not the strength that a ninja should have.

He even felt that the family secrets and wisdom that he was proud of were vulnerable to them.

"Qi Fei, how is Li?" Kai and Qi Fei came on stage almost at the same time when they saw Xiao Li was in danger, and now he was helping Qi Fei to guard against the sneak attack in Yinsha Village.

"It's not life-threatening, and follow-up care is enough. But I can't deal with the comminuted fracture of my left hand and left foot now, and I guess Muye Hospital can't do anything about it. Maybe I need to find another master."

Although Qi Fei has mastered most of the medical ninjutsu, after all, he only has less than a year of experience. This kind of difficult surgery is not something he can do now.

"It's okay, as long as Li is not in danger. Thanks for your hard work, Qi Fei." Kai has never been like this, and he is lucky to have a reliable medical ninja in his class.

Xiao Li is the painstaking effort of Kai's life, and he has already set "cultivating Xiao Li into a talent" as his lifelong goal.If there is really something wrong with Xiao Li, maybe he will never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"This is what should be done as a companion. Besides, I have already guaranteed him that I will not let him die." Looking at Xiao Li who was already asleep, Qi Fei said.

Crack, crack... There were crackling sounds from the frozen ice sculpture.Immediately afterwards, Gaara's body broke free from the ice on his body, and climbed up in embarrassment.

At this time, the sand armor on his body had completely fallen off, turning into pieces of ice and falling to the ground.

"Gara, are you alright?" Temari asked concerned.

"It's okay..." Although he really wanted to kill Qi Fei here, the cold touch made him fully awake, knowing that he had other important tasks.

As usual, Gaara raised his hand and started collecting the sand around him.However, to his surprise, the frozen sand did not respond to his control, and remained frozen on the field.

"How come, did he freeze the chakra directly?" Gaara's sand is actually just an appearance, and it is the chakra attached to each grain of sand that really controls the sand.But now, he found that he had lost his sense of the chakra attached to the sand.

Just when Gaara was thinking about how to break the ice, Moonlight Gaara also announced the result of the last game: Gaara won!

So far, all the contestants for the third test of the Joint Chunin Exam have been decided.
