Naruto : I Aspire To Become Hokage Man

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Sasuke vs. Rock Lee!



---

The next few duels seemed to return to the original timeline.

Sakura vs. Ino, draw.

The next battle: Temari vs. Tenten, let's begin!

Tenten immediately rushed forward, her fingers deftly manipulating a series of kunai and shuriken. She tossed them in a flurry toward Temari, who stood calmly, awaiting the incoming attack.

With a swift flick of her fan, Temari summoned a gust of wind strong enough to redirect the weapons, causing them to scatter harmlessly to the sides. Tenten was not deterred. She quickly reached into her pouch, pulling out several scrolls.

"Summoning Jutsu!" Tenten shouted, slamming the scrolls onto the ground. In an instant, a series of weapons flew out of the scrolls and into the air, surrounding Temari. Tenten controlled them with chakra strings, guiding them like a deadly storm.

But Temari smirked, knowing exactly what was coming. She unfurled her large fan, and with a flick of her wrist, unleashed a mighty Wind Style: Great Breakthrough. The gust of wind blasted the weapons away, sending them tumbling in all directions.

Tenten gritted her teeth, her focus unshaken. "I can't let her control the wind like this!" she muttered to herself. She then reached into another scroll, this time summoning a larger array of weapons, including kunai, shuriken, and exploding tags. She hurled them toward Temari with precise accuracy, her chakra strings weaving them through the air like a deadly web.

Temari, with a focused expression, merely flicked her fan once again. Another Wind Style: Great Breakthrough sent all of Tenten's projectiles scattering to the ground, leaving Tenten visibly frustrated.

"You're still too predictable," Temari remarked coolly, folding her fan with a confident smile.

Tenten took a deep breath, realizing she had to change her approach. She threw another series of kunai, but this time, instead of relying on her chakra strings, she used them as a diversion, swiftly jumping into the air. As Temari's attention shifted to the barrage of weapons, Tenten appeared from above, aiming a direct attack.

"Gotcha!" she shouted.

But Temari was ready. With a quick spin, she used her fan to release a powerful wind blast, knocking Tenten off course. Tenten managed to recover mid-air, but her body was already showing signs of exhaustion from the relentless battle.

"I can't beat her with just speed and weapons," Tenten realized.

"You're wasting your time," Temari taunted. "You should have known from the beginning that you can't match my wind."

Tenten landed, her body steadying itself as she prepared for one last attempt. She clasped her hands together in front of her and released a scroll on the ground. It expanded into a massive cloud of weapons, all aimed directly at Temari.

Temari smirked, "Is this all you have?"

"Not quite," Tenten said, her voice filled with determination. As the weapons flew toward Temari, she used her fan again, summoning another wind blast. But this time, Tenten was ready. She had already set several explosive tags within the cloud of weapons.

With a loud explosion, the barrage of weapons detonated around Temari, sending a massive shockwave through the arena.

When the smoke cleared, Temari stood, barely scratched, but clearly surprised. She had not expected such an intense final move from Tenten. Still, the damage wasn't enough to defeat her.

Temari glanced at her opponent, then sighed. "Impressive, but not enough."

"Ninjutsu, Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"

Temari unleashed a mighty tornado that sent Tenten flying into the air. The wind shredded Tenten's clothes, leaving her flailing helplessly in the air.

Just when Tenten was about to land on the handle of Temari's fan, it swished through the air, and Temari was gone again.

"Nani?!" Everyone gasped, wondering where she had gone.

Suddenly, they saw Naruto putting on Tenten's jacket.

"Hey, don't go too far, darling," Naruto said with a grin, looking at Temari, clearly dissatisfied.

The crowd: "So fast!"

Hayate Gekkou, who was about to step forward, was stopped by a glance from the Third Hokage. Without further delay, the Third Hokage announced: "Round 5, Temari wins!"

Gaara gave Naruto a deep look, his expression darkening. "I will destroy him."

However, Temari was dissatisfied. "He interfered directly in the game. Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

"Temari, since you've already won, come back," Gaara shouted from the sidelines, "Stop being distracted by that brat."

Then, Shikamaru faced off against one of the Sound ninjas (whose name doesn't matter, since they're just cannon fodder, haha), and of course, Shikamaru won.

Kankuro then faced another Konoha fodder and won easily as well.

Neji vs. Chōji! The tank-like Chōji was knocked out by Neji's Revolving Heaven technique with ease.

Then, it was time for Uchiha Sasuke vs. Rock Lee!

Sasuke was about to step onto the stage when Naruto walked up to him and said, "Remember, don't use Chakra. The curse mark on your neck isn't fully cleared yet."

"Hmph!" Sasuke scoffed, stepping up with his usual pride.

Rock Lee's face was filled with excitement as he finally got the chance to face one of Konoha's two legendary geniuses.

", it's your turn this time, go for it, Lee!" Guy shouted enthusiastically, flashing his trademark grin.

"! I'm going to use the law of intentionally planting flowers but not blooming, unintentionally planting willows and willows to make shade! Hahahaha!" Lee teased.

"! You are worthy of being my student!" Guy replied, proud of Lee. ", let's go!!!"

"Ahhhhhh!!!" Lee yelled as he leapt onto the stage, looking eager.

The crowd: "...Is this guy mentally challenged or something?"

"I was kicked away by you twice in our last match. This time, I'll show that a hardworking genius is still a genius!" Lee yelled as he charged at Sasuke, unleashing his Leaf Hurricane!

Lee aimed a powerful spinning kick at Sasuke.

"Hmph, boring." Sasuke casually stepped aside, blocking Lee's attack with a single hand as if it were nothing, and Lee's barrage of rapid punches and kicks was effortlessly countered by Sasuke's precise movements.

"Damn it, why won't you use ninjutsu or the Sharingan?!" Lee shouted in frustration.

"Hmph, I don't need to fight you seriously," Sasuke said as he casually kicked Lee away. "Your taijutsu is still far inferior to mine!"

The crowd was in shock. When did the Uchiha clan's taijutsu become so impressive? Sasuke's eight-pack abs and well-toned body were visible even under his ninja outfit, making him look like a true elite.

Lee, who was knocked back, felt deeply insulted. He had worked so hard on his physical training, but it still wasn't enough to match up to the so-called genius?

"Damn it!" Lee exclaimed, staring at the statue in front of him, looking at Guy with hesitation.

Guy, seeing his student's hesitation, stretched out his thumb with a reassuring smile. "Lee, it's okay, take it off!"

Lee hesitated for a moment before replying, "But... didn't you say I can only take it off when I'm protecting someone important?"

"It's fine, I approve it!" Guy winked at Lee.

"Hi!" Lee's face broke into a wide grin.

Naruto shook his head, muttering, "These guys know how to make a show "
