Chapter 80 Art is an Explosion
On the streets of Konoha.
At this moment, the situation has become extremely tense.
Even though the kids like Konohamaru didn't understand before, after Naruto and Sasuke spoke up one after the other and then fell silent, they knew that a fight was about to break out.
Watching this scene, the most puzzled person might not be the Sand Ninja trio facing Akali, but Sakura.
During the Jonin Exams and the Land of Waves mission, Naruto and Sasuke's teamwork, as well as Naruto's strength far exceeding that of his time at the Ninja Academy, had already shocked her once.
But now, Naruto and Sasuke, who are so strong, are showing such a weak attitude towards Akali, who used to be inconspicuous and unassuming in the Ninja Academy.
Isn't Akali always third?
[Ding! Sakura's emotional value +999!]
Sakura bit her lower lip, feeling like she had missed some parts of the story.
But her thoughts were never important.
Ahead, the Sand Ninja trio blocked by Akali are no pushovers.
Carrying the crow, Kankuro stepped forward, his face fierce and his attitude impatient:
"Hey, you wretched woman, are you tired of living? If you want to die, I can grant your wish!"
"If you were the one who provoked the fight and ended up getting killed by accident, even if you were the Jonin leading the team, you wouldn't have anything to say!"
As he spoke, Kankuro's fierce expression even revealed a hint of joy.
Gaara was absolutely confident in his strength, and he had long been annoyed by these Konoha brats in front of him.
But then, Gaara's voice rang out again.
"I said, step back, Kankuro!"
"Gaara?" Kankuro turned his head in confusion.
They've been forced into this situation, are they really going to back down?
But given Gaara's temperament...
Kankuro suddenly met Gaara's indifferent, lifeless eyes.
Kankuro knew his younger brother all too well.
Therefore, he could clearly see the madness and tyranny hidden in those eyes!
Gaara does have a bad temper, so at this moment, he couldn't hold back anymore!
"Yes!" Kankuro trembled as he stood to the side with Temari.
His trembling was a mixture of fear and excitement!
Fear is for Gaara.
The excitement, of course, comes from Akali, who is about to be in trouble.
At the same time, Akali glanced at Sasuke, who then stepped aside to join Naruto and Sakura.
In the not-so-wide street, which could probably only be considered a two-lane road, only Akali and Gaara remained.
"pat-"
The stopper on the large gourd that Gaara was carrying suddenly fell off.
At the same time, Akali also suddenly made a move.
"My Ultimate Technique: Cold Shadow!"
Five jets of chakra, forming a jet-black kunai, struck Gaara's throat, heart, liver, spleen, and lungs with lightning speed!
"It's that technique!" Sasuke, who had somehow awakened his Sharingan, exclaimed, his eyes wide.
Sasuke still vividly remembers Akali's ninjutsu.
After seeing Akali unleash her Shadow Blade, Sasuke immediately looked at Gaara, wanting to know how this Sand Ninja would deal with it.
Gaara doesn't need to deal with it.
"Clap, clap clap clap clap!"
Five consecutive loud bangs rang out from Gaara's body, and fragments of sand flew in all directions!
He remained motionless, and the sand that emanated from the large gourd behind him blocked Akali's kunai!
Seeing this, Akali murmured softly:
"Is this what they call a mother's 'love'? It's just sand with automatic defense. It can even block my Cold Shadow. No wonder Xiao Li had such a hard time fighting it."
Akali had no idea that Gaara was even more surprised.
Because at this point, the upper part of the large gourd made of sand behind him had disappeared.
In other words, that defense just now shattered a small portion of Gaara's regular sand reserves, demonstrating the power of Akali's seemingly ordinary kunai attacks!
Gaara instantly understood: Akali wasn't a Muggle, so he couldn't just stand there and let her deal damage!
Gaara took the initiative: "Sand Shuriken!"
The scattered yellow sand gathered together and turned into a series of shuriken to retaliate!
Akali simultaneously unleashed her Shadow Bolt and charged forward.
The black kunai clashed with the yellow shuriken, and with their numerical advantage, the sand shuriken gradually wore away the cold shadow.
But just as the sand shuriken was about to touch Akali, a shadow simultaneously appeared beneath Akali's feet, appearing directly behind Gaara without anyone noticing!
Then, Shadow Technique: Demon Slash!
As Akali shattered the sand shuriken with her scythe, her shadow clone appeared behind Gaara, synchronizing with Akali's movements!
"Pfft!"
The automatically defending yellow sand splashed onto the wall beside the Demon Slash!
It was only then that Gaara and the others noticed the attack coming from behind.
[Ding! Gaara's emotional value +999!]
Gaara was utterly astonished: "Behind me, when?!"
But Akali's actions weren't over yet!
After the Demon Slayer, comes the Double-Edged Sword!
Two shadow shurikens, formed from shadows, were shot from Akali's hand and her shadow clone's hand respectively, forming a cheese sandwich between two buns!
A chilling killing intent swept in!
The fast-paced attack that started right from the beginning immediately put Temari and Kankuro in a cold sweat!
Gaara!
"Noisy!"
Gaara snorted coldly.
Akali's fast attack is indeed very tight and good, but the flight of the big shuriken takes time.
The time difference between the two events was his opportunity!
So, first, the broken gourd obtained a large amount of sand to block the attack from behind, and then Gaara manipulated the sand to form a sand hand that reached forward!
The massive sand hand collided with the blades, and although half of its palm was cut off, its momentum continued unabated!
Gaara instantly switched from defense to offense!
"Beautiful!" Seeing this, Temari and the other two felt their worries turn to joy.
At the same time, with a touch of excitement for battle, Gaara looked at Akali, wanting to know how she would respond.
Then Gaara saw Akali's lips curl slightly upwards!
Akali, who had changed into the Ghost Dancer skin today, was absolutely stunning, but Gaara felt an unprecedented sense of crisis explode behind him!
As expected, Gaara only had a moment of confusion before Akali, who was just standing there, transformed into a dark and indifferent shadow clone!
Taking advantage of the moment when Gaara moved away a large amount of sand to launch an attack, Akali and her shadow clone switched positions!
"Oh no!" Gaara turned around in alarm.
Akali maintained her perfect smile, but between her ten fingers were eight kunai with explosive tags attached!
At this point, the detonator had already burned nearly halfway!
Akali threw out all the kunai!
"Art is an explosion!"
"drink!"
"Rumble, rumble—"
Intense flames shot into the sky!
