Naruto: The Strongest Training System

Chapter 53: The Frustrated Guy

"Ori, be careful. I'm going to activate my Jonin-level physical strength now. If you can't hold on, just say so."

Guy said to Orion seriously. In this past year, Orion had never pushed him to this extent. To have to use his Jonin-level strength now in a battle with Orion was indeed a bit surprising to Guy.

What was surprising was that Orion was merely five years old. Under normal circumstances, what could a five-year-old child do, other than run around and play?

But now, five-year-old Orion actually possessed such great strength. His physical body alone had reached the Chunin level. One must know that a year ago, Orion's physical strength was only at the Genin level.

For Orion to raise his physical strength to the Chunin level in just one year was an incredibly difficult feat. And from this point, one could see what Orion had gone through in this past year.

If it were Orion's chakra level that had reached Chunin, Guy would not have been surprised at all, because the improvement of one's chakra level depends in large part on talent. It's understandable that people with good talent improve their chakra level quickly, and it's normal for people with poor talent to improve slowly.

But what Orion had improved was his physical strength. The Orion fighting him now was a person whose physical strength had already reached the Chunin level. Besides his physical strength reaching the Chunin level, Guy could also sense that Orion possessed a considerable flow of chakra within his body.

Based on the amount of this chakra, Guy could judge that it was at the Genin level. This meant that at the age of five, Orion already possessed the chakra of a Genin. This was a truly shocking matter.

A five-year-old child with Chunin-level physical strength and Genin-level chakra—such an achievement was terrifying. Many people would struggle their entire lives and never reach such a level.

Yet, Orion had achieved it. One can only imagine what kind of life Orion had lived this past year.

If one wanted their physical strength to reach the Chunin level, they had to go through countless training sessions, shed countless drops of sweat, and endure very arduous and boring exercises. Guy was very clear about all of this because he had personally experienced it himself.

Thinking of this, the look in Guy's eyes as he looked at Orion gradually began to change. Guy no longer saw the Orion in front of him as a five-year-old child, but as an adult, an opponent on equal footing with himself.

Therefore, when facing Orion, Guy no longer held back. After all, to hold back at a time like this would be an insult to Orion.

"Hah! Leaf Whirlwind!"

Guy's fighting style was very cautious. He first used a simple taijutsu against Orion, probing him to see how he would respond.

"Swish!"

Guy supported himself on the ground with one hand and kicked towards Orion's neck with his fastest whirlwind leg.

It was just a simple Leaf Whirlwind, but in Guy's hands, it carried a very powerful momentum.

At this moment, Guy's whirlwind leg was getting closer and closer to Orion's neck. The speed of the kick was extremely fast. If Orion didn't block it, in the next moment, the kick would land on his neck, capable of ending the fight in one move.

But Orion wasn't stupid. Although it was just a small whirlwind kick, this one was executed by Guy, supported by a Jonin-level physique. Orion knew that this move was definitely not simple.

With his Jonin-level physical strength activated, Guy's speed was several degrees faster than Orion's. Under such circumstances, even the fast mode of his Taiji Palm couldn't hit Guy. So, he could only switch from the fast mode to the slow mode of the Taiji Palm.

The fast mode of the Taiji Palm could amplify one's own speed and power. Against an opponent of similar strength, using the fast mode was undoubtedly the best choice.

But when fighting against an opponent stronger than oneself, activating the fast mode was not enough. At this time, one should activate the slow mode of the Taiji Palm.

Although the slow mode lacked the amplification of speed and power, it had its own advantages.

The slow mode of the Taiji Palm excelled at overcoming movement with stillness, using slowness to counter speed, meeting all changes with constancy, and using four ounces to move a thousand pounds. Therefore, the loss of speed and power amplification didn't have much of an impact on the slow mode.

Soon, Guy's whirlwind kick was about to hit Orion's neck. Closer, closer... just when Guy's kick was about half a meter away from Orion's neck, Orion moved.

Orion gently extended a hand, slowly placing it in front of his neck to block. At this moment, Guy's kick could no longer be retracted; he could only kick straight ahead.

"Smack!"

Only the sound of a palm meeting a kick could be heard.

Guy's leg had now made contact with Orion's hand. Orion grabbed the leg that was kicking towards him and, with a gentle pull, threw Guy aside.

Guy's experience was also very rich. The moment he was thrown into the air by Orion, he had already assumed a landing posture. After landing on the ground, he didn't fall but squatted steadily to absorb the force of his feet against the ground.

Soon, Guy launched another attack on Orion. Orion still just stood in a posture that seemed to be full of openings.

When Guy saw Orion strike this pose, a question arose in his heart. "This stance has so many openings. Can't I defeat Ori with just a random attack?"

With this doubt, Guy directly used the Leaf Great Whirlwind against Orion. The power of the Leaf Great Whirlwind was more than double that of the Leaf Whirlwind. He didn't know if the current Orion could take it.

"Swish!"

Soon, Guy was behind Orion and executed the Leaf Great Whirlwind.

But before this, Orion had secretly activated his Eye of God. After activating it, he suddenly discovered a new ability: it could make everything he saw slow down, become very, very slow.

So, in the instant Guy got behind Orion and used the Leaf Great Whirlwind, it felt as if more than ten minutes had passed in Orion's eyes.

The course of events this time was the same as when Guy had used the Leaf Whirlwind. Orion's movements were still very slow, but these slow movements were able to block Guy's attack.

Orion extended both his hands, moved them near Guy's incoming kick, gently grabbed it, and with a pull and a push, he easily blocked Guy's Leaf Great Whirlwind.

But Orion's Taiji Palm was not that simple. During Guy's first attack on Orion, Orion had already sent a burst of "dark energy" into his body. This second time, he did it again.

Blocked by Orion, Guy suddenly attacked frantically, his speed abruptly increasing by another level. But this speed was still within the range that the slow mode of Taiji Palm could handle.

"So frustrating, so frustrating! Why is it that Ori's body seems full of openings, and his movements are incredibly slow, yet he can still block my attacks?"

Guy was completely baffled by this. "I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore! No matter how I attack you, you can easily resolve it. If we continue fighting like this, the result will just be a draw. I'm done, I'm done!"
