Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto's twin sister

Chapter 93 - Preliminary Matches Part 2

Moments later, Sasuke and Dosu stood in front of each other in the middle of the arena. Sasuke had a confident smirk on his face, while Dosu had an annoyed frown.

Dosu regretted running away from Sasuke inside the Forest of Death. He was so shocked about Orochimaru granting Sasuke power, that he stopped thinking about the situation properly.

'That damn Orochimaru-sa… no need for the "sama", huh. He sent us in as guinea pigs to test Sasuke. There is no way I can accept that. Whatever plans he might have, I will get rid of Sasuke today, to destroy them. That is what he gets for treating me as a guinea pig.'

Sasuke, meanwhile, noticed that Dosu seemed to be absentminded, which caused his smirk to become cocky.

"You might as well give up. I have beat you once while you had the support of your team. Now that you are alone, you have no chance at winning."

Dosu shook his head at Sasuke shamelessly claiming that he won against all three of them, but didn't say anything about it. He only readied the device strapped to his arm and prepared for combat.

Moments later, Sasuke did the same and activated his Sharingan. Kakashi told him not to use the seal, but Sasuke didn't care too much about that. For now, he would suppress it, and when things become dangerous, he would just use the seal freely. He saw no reason to not use the power that was given to him.

Both contestants charged at each other. Dosu swung his hand to use his sound attack, but due to his Sharingan, Sasuke saw through it instantly and managed to evade the sound wave.

Sasuke tried to close in on Dosu but was yet again met with a sound wave. An annoyed frown appeared on Sasuke's face as he went through a few hand seals.

"[Fire Style: Grand Fireball Jutsu]"

The fireball approached Dosu, but he yet again swung his arm and shot out a sound wave to split the fireball in the middle.

"Hehe, what's wrong. Didn't you defeat all three of us on your own? What happened to that?"

Sasuke gritted his teeth in anger when he heard his enemy's taunt.

'Seems like ninjutsu won't work that easily. Guess I need to engage him in Taijutsu before I can get a good hit in with Ninjutsu, but I am not fast enough to approach him.'

Sasuke pondered some more and then noticed a young teenager with a green spandex suit spectating the battle.

'That's right, if it is his movements, it should be fast enough to reach my enemy.'

Sasuke's stance changed and moments later he vanished from Dosu's sight.

'Impossible, how did he suddenly get this fa…'

His thoughts were interrupted, when Sasuke appeared in front of him and kicked his head, sending him flying into the air.

'W-What just happened?'

Moments later, Sasuke appeared behind him in mid-air.

"From here on it will be my original."

Sasuke kicked towards Dosu's side, but he managed to block the kick, just for another one to smash into his other side. Dosu flinched from the sudden pain and wasn't ready to defend himself. As soon as he hit the ground, Sasuke spun around and drove his heel into Dosu, knocking him out.

Sasuke could feel the seal encroach on him but managed to suppress it with his will.

'Like I would lose control this easily. I am the one in charge and decide when I want to activate the seal. There is no way I would let it activate on its own.'

Sasuke dusted off his clothes and walked towards the spectator stands. He could feel that the short time he used Lee's movements cost him massive amounts of stamina and he couldn't help but wonder how someone could deal with the ridiculous stamina cost. Despite being close to the limit, Sasuke pretended to be completely fine and walked with his back straight.

The next match was Kankurou vs Shino, which Yuna found rather interesting.

'Two weird fighting styles clash against each other. One controls puppets and the other one insects. From the feeling they give off, they should be rather similar in strength.'

The fight started, and, just like Yuna had thought, the strength of these two was rather similar. The result was that Kankurou's chakra was eaten by Shino's insects, while Shino was poisoned by Kankurou's puppets. A draw.

The next match was supposed to be Gaara vs Kiba, but when Kiba realized that Akaramu, his ninken, was extremely afraid of Gaara he simply gave up. The Inuzuka clan usually trust in the instincts of their ninken, so Kiba would naturally do the same.

The next fight was Neji Hyuga vs Zaku Abumi. As soon as Yuna noticed the holes in his hands, she couldn't help but gawk.

"Naruto, did you see the hands of that guys? What the hell?"

Naruto, however, had a serious look on his face as he looked at Yuna.

"Nee-san, that is really rude. He isn't "that guy", he has a proper name. He is called Handjob Man."

Yuna, immediately, seemed to be apologetic as she lowered her head.

"I see, that was really rude of me. So his name is Handjob Man. What a majestic name."

Zaku, meanwhile, tried to ignore the roaring laughter he heard from the spectator stands and focused on his enemy.

Unfortunately, that didn't get him very far, because as soon as the fight started, Neji approached him far faster than he expected and slammed his palm into Zaku's stomach, knocking him out instantly.

After the end of another anti-climatic battle, the screen atop the arena started shuffling through the remaining fighters and displayed the next match: Yuna vs Lee.

As soon as Yuna saw who she will be fighting, she vanished where she stood and reappeared in the middle of the arena with an excited smile on her face.

Seeing Yuna's excited smile, Naruto couldn't help but chuckle.

"Seems like thing will become interesting."

The few jonin that also stood in the spectator stand heard Naruto's words and looked at him with confusion. Kakashi was the first of them to speak.

"What do you mean, Naruto?"

"Hehe, nee-san seems to be looking forward to this fight. Although I don't understand the reason why she is expecting a good match, it seems like Lee has caught her interest, despite not having much chakra."

Before Kakashi could answer, the person standing next to him who wore a green spandex suit that looked rather similar to Lee's gave Naruto a "Nice Guy" pose.

"Haha, that is only natural. After all, Lee is my youthful disciple. He will take the chunin exam as a chance to reveal his youth to the world!"

Naruto could feel his eyebrow twitch a little at that…youthful…display a grown man did in front of him but decided not to comment on it.

Moments later, Lee had also reached the middle of the arena and stood in front of Yuna.

"Although I said I like you, I still won't hold back in this fight. I will show you my youth!"

"Then take off those weights already. Are you mocking me?"

Lee was slightly taken aback by Yuna knowing about his weights but answered her anyway.

"I will only take those off when I have to protect many precious people, so n…"

Before he could finish the sentence, Yuna appeared in front of him and punched towards his face. Lee barely managed to tilt his head to the side to avoid the punch. Lee couldn't help but be surprised by Yuna displaying speed that could match his own without the weights.

"So you are not mocking me, you are just stupid. Take them off! Show it to me. Is this what you have been pushing yourself for? All that hard work only to be defeated because you shackled yourself to your own rules?"

Lee was surprised by Yuna's words and jumped away from her to get some distance. Yuna could have easily followed him but decided not to. She wanted a good fight and not a one-sided beatdown.

While Lee was still contemplating what to do, a loud voice echoed over the battlefield.

"Take them off, Lee. It is time to show off your youth."

A fire began to burn in Lee's eyes as he was looking at his sensei.

"YES, GAI-SENSEI!!!"

Moments later, he sat down on the floor and removed the weights he had around his ankles, and held them up with his hands.

"Alright, now I can move much easier!"

As soon as the weights hit the ground, a huge explosion echoed through the arena, showing just how heavy those weights were.

While almost everyone was dumbfounded by that, Yuna's smile grew even more intense.

'I knew it. That guy is a monster. This will be a lot of fun.'

Yuna lifted her hand and caught Lee's punch that was about to hit her in the stomach. Lee's eyes widened when Yuna managed to catch his punch and flinched a little when Yuna's battle-thirsty aura exploded out, flooding the whole arena.

"Show me what you got, LEE!"
