“Shikaku, your kid’s quite something!”
As Koshino’s lazy voice echoed, Fugaku Uchiha’s face turned grim, while Yamanaka Inoichi, standing beside Shikaku, chuckled, his gaze shifting towards Koshino to one of admiration.
At that moment, the one who understood Koshino best was undoubtedly Shikaku.
So, when Inoichi commented, Shikaku just gave a mysterious smile, recalling Koshi no’s morning performance, and thought to himself:
“Just with Shadow Sewing, Koshino, you can’t win.”
“But because of that, Koshino, I’m all the more eager to see what surprises you bring!”
Taking a deep breath, Shikaku quietly awaited Koshino’s performance.
On the other hand, Fugaku Uchiha’s face turned livid before he laughed angrily and said to Koshino, “Well, Nara Koshino, you certainly have some skills. Didn’t you want to challenge all of us from the Uchiha Clan? Kin, Gin, Hi, join Yuno and spar with Koshino! I really want to see what gives a mere Nara Clan member the audacity to be so arrogant in front of the Uchiha Clan!”
“Yes, clan head!”
With Fugaku’s command, three more Uchiha youths stepped forward, shamelessly surrounding Koshino.
At this moment, the Uchiha Clan couldn’t afford to lose again!
If four of their best couldn’t defeat one Koshino, never mind the bet, Fugaku would want to find a rock to hide under!
However, as Koshino nonchalantly observed the four Uchiha youths surrounding him, he remained as lazy as ever. Then, with Fugaku’s order, before Koshino could even form a seal, the four Uchiha youths burst into action, seizing the initiative, clearly not giving Koshino any chance to retaliate!
“Koshino’s in danger!”
“Yeah! If it were just Yuno, Koshino might have a chance, but he’s too confident!”
“Fugaku Uchiha is too despicable! Sending four against a four-year-old! Even if they win, so what?”
As the four Uchiha youths attacked simultaneously, the spectators naturally grew even more skeptical of Koshino’s chances.
But as Uchiha Kin, leading the charge, closed in on Koshino in just two steps, Koshino’s face showed no panic, still wearing that lazy expression.
That lazy look seemed more like a provocation, almost a taunt!
Thus, seeing Koshino’s expression, Uchiha Kin smirked, gripping his kunai tightly and aiming for Koshino’s chest. But just as Kin took another step, ready to thrust his kunai, Koshino’s eyes suddenly gleamed, and he swiftly formed seals!
“Shadow Imitation Technique!”
Buzz!
Buzz!
Having used the Shadow Imitation Technique multiple times, Koshino performed it with masterful precision, executing it as swiftly as Shikaku himself!
In an instant, his shadow extended and connected with Kin’s shadow!
In just one move, Koshino’s Shadow Imitation Technique immobilized Uchiha Kin, causing an uproar among the onlookers!
“Koshino’s a monster? His jutsu is so fast! Did Shikaku teach him personally?”
“No, even Shikaku’s Shadow Imitation isn’t that fast! No wonder Koshino saved Minji earlier; this Shadow Imitation alone is impressive!”
“Wait! Here comes Uchiha Gin! No matter how good Koshino’s Shadow Imitation is, he can’t bind two people at once, can he?”
Just as the spectators exclaimed, Uchiha Gin launched his attack.
Facing multiple opponents at once, Koshino was at a disadvantage.
If it had been just Uchiha Kin, Koshino would have already won.
But Koshino had more than one opponent, so despite the spectators’ astonishment at his Shadow Imitation, most still believed he would face a crushing defeat.
“If none of you have faith, then let me give you a surprise!”
“Shadow Sewing Technique!”
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
With a lazy smile, Koshino became more serious, suddenly changing his seal formation, prompting Inoichi to exclaim!
“Shikaku, is that Shadow Sewing?”
“Indeed! It’s Shadow Sewing!”
Smiling confidently, Shikaku knew he hadn’t misplaced his faith in Koshino when he saw him use Shadow Sewing.
The Uchiha youths, including Kin, Gin, and Hi, had been too careless, thinking Koshino would be an easy win. So when the match began, Kin, Gin, and Hi charged at Koshino directly. They couldn’t have imagined Koshino had mastered Shadow Sewing, a Nara Clan technique that could bind multiple targets at once.
As expected, Koshino’s Shadow Sewing established his victory!
In their rapid movement, Uchiha Gin and Hi had no intention of retreating. With Koshino’s Shadow Sewing, the extending shadows quickly bound them. Thus, with just two Nara Clan techniques, Koshino defeated three of Uchiha’s finest youths!
But just as Koshino was about to claim victory, Uchiha Yuno suddenly began forming seals!
“Hmm? A Fire Release jutsu?”
“Yuno has mastered Fire Release? This is bad! Koshino’s going to lose!”
Having bound three Uchiha youths with Shadow Sewing, Koshino was poised for victory, and Shikaku was confidently smiling.
But Yuno’s sudden use of Fire Release made Shikaku’s pupils contract.
Because Koshino couldn’t move freely while using Shadow Sewing, he had two choices: release the three Uchiha youths to dodge Yuno’s Fire Release or stay put and risk severe injury or even death!
Clenching his fists, Shikaku hesitated whether to intervene.
Meanwhile, Fugaku Uchiha smirked, seemingly foreseeing Koshino’s impending defeat at the hands of Yuno’s Fire Release!
However!
Just as everyone held their breath, waiting for the outcome, Koshino reached into his ninja pouch!
In the next instant, as Yuno completed his seals and prepared to unleash his Fire Release, Koshino’s kunai flew, pinning Yuno’s shadow!
In a moment, the tide turned!
“Shadow Shuriken!”
“Uchiha Yuno, you’ve lost!”
