Naruto: I'm a Teacher, But the System Thinks I'm Naruto's Classmate! Chapter 345: Naruto vs Sarutobi Asuma
"Is this the Three-Tomoe Sharingan?" Uchiha Inabi suddenly reacted, a look of surprise appearing on his face.
Although he knew Sasuke had been called a genius since a very young age, he still found it unbelievable at this mont.
After all, that was the Three-Tomoe Sharingan; once activated, it granted Jonin-level strength. Moreover, as far as he knew, even Itachi only had a One-Tomoe Sharingan at the age of eight.
Uchiha Inabi had previously marveled at Uchiha Itachi's talent. He and Uchiha Shisui were definitely the two most talented clan mbers of the Uchiha Clan in recent years.
But now, compared to Sasuke, they seed overshadowed.
Uchiha Inabi took a deep breath and drew a ninja sword.
As a mber of the Uchiha Clan, in addition to Genjutsu and Fire Release, Konoha Style Swordsmanship was also a must-master skill.
He wanted to test the extent of Sasuke's Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Uchiha Inabi took the initiative, Body Flicker Technique-ing in front of Sasuke.
Clang!
The ninja sword and the Sword of the Thunder God collided. The two competed in swordsmanship.
Their Three-Tomoe Sharingan could clearly see each other's movents. Thus, this sword fight beca a battle of "I predict your prediction."
After several rounds, Sasuke was at a disadvantage, struggling greatly. His Three-Tomoe Sharingan was still inferior to Uchiha Inabi's Three-Tomoe Sharingan, especially in terms of insight.
After realizing this, Sasuke imdiately changed his strategy.
He infused a large amount of Chakra into the Sword of the Thunder God. Dazzling lightning, following the ninja sword, struck Uchiha Inabi at an extrely fast speed.
Uchiha Inabi reacted quickly; he imdiately let go of his ninja sword, retreated, and simultaneously kicked the ninja sword.
The ninja sword, propelled by the force, flew towards Sasuke like a shuriken.
Sasuke hurriedly raised the Sword of the Thunder God, deflecting the ninja sword. But the force from the ninja sword made his body pause involuntarily.
Genjutsu: Unknown Fire! Just then, Uchiha Inabi's Three-Tomoe Sharingan flickered.
Sasuke felt the scenery before his eyes change, and he was dragged into an illusion.
Fortunately, he had been training with Uchiha Itachi for the past three months and knew how to deal with such situations.
Simply put, it was using Sharingan against Sharingan. Sharingan could not only cast Genjutsu but also see through and reflect Genjutsu.
Sasuke imdiately released Genjutsu: Unknown Fire.
But with this delay, Uchiha Inabi's attack had already reached him. He employed the simplest attack: Ninja tools.
Sasuke looked at the four Kunai in front of him and instinctively used the Body Flicker Technique.
But even so, he was still hit by one Kunai. The Kunai grazed his shoulder, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
Konoha Style: Willow! Sasuke ignored his injury; as soon as he stood firm, he raised the Sword of the Thunder God.
Uchiha Inabi, who was about to press his advantage, was imdiately frozen in place.
Genjutsu: Release!
Uchiha Inabi imdiately used his Three-Tomoe Sharingan to regain movent. His speed in releasing Genjutsu was significantly faster than Sasuke's.
The Sword of the Thunder God flew towards him like an arrow from a bowstring. Uchiha Inabi quickly dodged to the left.
Just then, a piercing thunderclap sounded.
After throwing the Sword of the Thunder God, Sasuke imdiately used Chidori. His right hand, like a blade, thrust towards Uchiha Inabi.
"Chidori?" Uchiha Inabi's expression changed slightly as he recognized this as Kakashi's famous Lightning Release Ninjutsu.
Fortunately, he was a Uchiha Jonin with a Three-Tomoe Sharingan. In an extrely short amount of ti, he leaned back.
Chidori missed. But Sasuke didn't feel discouraged; instead, he imdiately changed the form of Chidori.
Chidori Current! Brilliant lightning spread from his right hand throughout his body, then diffused outwards.
"Ahhh!"
Uchiha Inabi was instantly engulfed by the lightning, letting out a scream. Although he was a Jonin, being hit head-on by Chidori Current was still very unpleasant.
But what was more critical was that the Lightning Release ca with a paralyzing effect. His body was temporarily unable to move.
Sasuke unhesitatingly pulled out a Kunai and aid it at him. The lightning dispersed.
Uchiha Inabi was already covered in wounds. He looked at the Kunai in front of him, was silent for two seconds, and said, "I surrender."
Kitazawa imdiately stepped forward to heal him.
Sasuke instinctively tightened his grip on the Kunai, unable to suppress a smile. He had defeated a Uchiha Jonin!
Although it was thanks to Lightning Release, this also proved that his current strength had indeed reached Jonin level.
"Inabi was careless; he didn't guard against Sasuke's Lightning Release." Uchiha Fugaku said calmly.
Hyuga Hiashi twitched his lips. He was sure Uchiha Fugaku was already overjoyed in his heart.
Although both had defeated Jonin, Sasuke was far more impressive than Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata. Because he relied primarily on Lightning Release, not Ninja tools.
Ninja tools were ultimately external. Neji and Hinata's bows were indeed powerful, but they wouldn't be as useful against true powerhouses.
However, they were still young; aiming for the Ninja World's powerhouses now was too far-fetched.
"Inabi already did very well." Abura Shibi suppressed his surprise and said, "It's Sasuke's Lightning Release; he's learned the essence of Kakashi's style."
"When did Chidori have such a form change?" Inuzuka Tsu asked curiously.
"Lord Kitazawa modified Chidori and taught it to Sasuke." Uchiha Itachi replied.
"As expected, it's related to Kitazawa again." Nara Shikaku couldn't help but sigh upon hearing this.
"If we had t a teacher like Kitazawa back then, maybe we could be even stronger now." Akimichi Choza said with a smile.
Although this statent sounded outrageous, no one refuted it. After all, the students of the Genius Class had already proven this point.
Sasuke walked off the field with his hands in his pockets.
"He's hogging the spotlight again," Kiba complained, seeing him walk with such flair.
"Only with strength can you hog the spotlight!" Sakura said, then imdiately went to greet Sasuke.
"Sasuke's Lightning Release seems to have gotten much stronger," Tenten said thoughtfully.
Sasuke couldn't quickly transform Chidori into Chidori Current before, nor could he instantly release Genjutsu.
"It's the boost from the Three-Tomoe Sharingan." Hyuga Neji said in a deep voice.
The Three-Tomoe Sharingan not only brought powerful insight but also elevated Sasuke's foundation to another level.
The most direct impact was that his swordsmanship was faster than before. In addition, his Chakra control and Chakra form transformation also improved.
"Not only that." Shikamaru added, "Sasuke is still young; his Three-Tomoe Sharingan is far from its limit."
Hyuga Neji nodded. He had narrowed the gap with Sasuke using the Fate Breaking bow, but it was only temporary; he still needed to work harder.
"Being in the Genius Class is really stressful."
Ino felt a sense of powerlessness listening to their discussion. Neji still had a chance to improve, but even if she tried, it wouldn't help.
Fortunately, she wasn't very competitive; otherwise, she would have beco withdrawn in the Genius Class sooner or later.
Tayuya strongly resonated with Ino's words. She only had one feeling in the Genius Class: it was too difficult!
"Seventeenth match: Kurama Yakumo vs. Inuzuka Gaku!" Iruka shouted loudly.
"Yakumo? I rember her." Akimichi Choza recalled, "She awakened the Kurama Clan's Genjutsu Bloodline Limit."
At the previous exchange eting between Konoha Village and Hidden Mist Village, Kurama Yakumo's instant kill of a Hidden Mist Village genius left a deep impression on him.
"Her Genjutsu is indeed good." Uchiha Fugaku praised.
In his opinion, Kurama Yakumo's Genjutsu Bloodline Limit was probably equivalent to the Three-Tomoe Sharingan level.
After all, Sasuke had ntioned several tis that he couldn't break her Genjutsu. As for the Mangekyo Sharingan, he didn't think Kurama Yakumo could reach that level.
"But her opponent is Senior Gaku." Abura Shibi pondered for a mont and said, "It's hard to say who will win this match."
Inuzuka Gaku was a very famous Jonin of the Inuzuka Clan.
During the Third Shinobi World War, he was Minato Namikaze's teammate, powerful, and made many contributions on the battlefield.
He was even older than Abura Shibi, which is why he was called 'Senior.'
"And all mbers of the Inuzuka Clan have their Ninken." Nara Shikaku added, "Genjutsu isn't that tricky for them."
Uchiha Fugaku, Abura Shibi, and others nodded in agreent.
As they conversed, Inuzuka Gaku and Kurama Yakumo entered the arena.
Terrifying Illusion! Kurama Yakumo unhesitatingly used her full power.
Although she knew Konoha Style Taijutsu and Konoha Style Swordsmanship, she knew these were useless against a Jonin.
Inuzuka Gaku and his Ninken were all pulled into the illusion.
"What's going on?" Nara Shikaku looked puzzled.
"Senior Gaku fell into a Genjutsu?" Abura Shibi paused for two seconds and asked, "And he still hasn't released it?"
Uchiha Fugaku instinctively activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan. He looked at Kurama Yakumo, and his expression suddenly changed.
A dense, extrely powerful Yin Release power was coiled within her body. He even felt that this Yin Release power was enough to give birth to a Yin Release monster like Satori.
Is this Mangekyo Sharingan-level Genjutsu? Uchiha Fugaku was stunned after realizing this. He finally understood why Sasuke couldn't defeat her.
"How can there be this level of Genjutsu?" Inuzuka Tsu felt horrified seeing Inuzuka Gaku controlled and motionless.
Everyone fell silent.
The students of the Genius Class were equally puzzled.
"Is this right?" Kiba scratched his head and asked, "How co even a Jonin can't break Yakumo's Genjutsu?"
"Has her Genjutsu already reached the Three-Tomoe Sharingan level?" Ino asked in surprise.
"It should be." Shikamaru said thoughtfully, "As far as I know, only a Three-Tomoe Sharingan can control a Jonin so easily."
"No wonder we couldn't beat her before." Tenten's face showed realization.
"The Kurama Clan was once as famous as the Uchiha Clan." Abura Shino adjusted his glasses and said.
Sasuke frowned slightly. Yakumo's Genjutsu was more troubleso than he imagined.
But then again. If her Genjutsu wasn't Three-Tomoe Sharingan level, how could she have defeated his forr self?
But tis were different now; he also had a Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
And in his battle with Uchiha Inabi, he had released a Genjutsu cast by a Three-Tomoe Sharingan. This ant he no longer had to fear Yakumo's Genjutsu.
They were unaware of the existence of the Mangekyo Sharingan, hence their misjudgnt.
"Winner, Kurama Yakumo!" Iruka recovered and announced.
He also hadn't expected Yakumo's Genjutsu to be so powerful, capable of controlling a Jonin for an extended period.
Only Kitazawa was relatively calm. After all, in the original story, Kurama Yakumo's Genjutsu was even more abnormal.
"Eighteenth match: Uzumaki Naruto vs. Sarutobi Asuma!" Iruka announced the final match of this final exam.
"Naruto's opponent is Asuma?" Kosuke asked with a smile, "Hiruzen, who do you think will win?"
Kakashi, Kurenai, and Chen also showed interested expressions.
"It's normal for either Asuma or Naruto to win." Hiruzen thought for a mont and said.
He originally wanted to say Asuma had a greater chance of winning, but Naruto's consistent performance made it difficult for him to make a judgnt.
"Naruto's strength lies in his Chakra and Ninja tools." Maruboshi Kosuke analyzed, "Asuma excels in Fire Release and Wind Release, and his strength lies in his rich experience."
"Not just that." Kurenai suddenly rembered Asuma's previous match with Kitazawa, "Asuma also learned the Secret Technique of the Fire Temple."
"He has indeed made progress in the Land of Fire." Hiruzen nodded and said.
Ninja Battle Zone.
"Asuma-senpai, you can do it!" Kotetsu said, "You are our last hope now!"
"That's right!" Ebisu quickly said, "Asuma, you must win this round!"
"Asuma-senpai, be careful of Naruto's Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu." Izumo reminded him.
"He can use Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu?" Asuma asked in surprise, "Does he have that much Chakra?"
"His Chakra isn't just a little bit more than average." Izumo couldn't help but twitch his mouth as he said.
Asuma was stunned for a mont, then suddenly rembered Naruto's background. He was, after all, half of the Uzumaki Clan, so having a lot of Chakra was normal.
"Don't worry, I'm a Jonin after all." Asuma nodded and said, "It won't be that easy to make lose."
He took a deep breath and walked into the arena.
"Uncle Asuma!" Naruto greeted him enthusiastically.
"Naruto." Asuma said with a smile, "Long ti no see."
"Let's have a youthful sparring match!" Naruto gave a thumbs-up, his teeth sparkling as he spoke.
Asuma imdiately thought of Might Guy. He twitched his mouth, thinking, How did such a good kid turn out like this?
"Be careful, Naruto." Asuma held his Chakra Blades with both hands.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto shouted, and hundreds of Shadow Clones appeared.
Although Asuma had expected it, seeing so many Shadow Clones still made him feel it was incredible.
To have so much Chakra at eight years old, he couldn't imagine how much Chakra he would have when he grew up.
"Konoha Whirlwind!"
"Dynamic Entry!"
"Konoha Great Whirlwind!"
Hundreds of Shadow Clones surged towards him.
Chakra Blade: Straight Line!
Asuma injected Wind Release Chakra into his Chakra Blades. The surfaces of the two Chakra Blades imdiately glowed blue.
Asuma imdiately t them. He attacked with both hands, unleashing continuous slashes.
Wherever he passed, the blue light cut through Naruto's Shadow Clones. In the blink of an eye, he had cut through them.
"Uncle Asuma, you're too strong!" Seeing this, Naruto said excitedly, "I feel my youth boiling!"
"Naruto, if that's all your strength, you're going to lose!" Asuma smiled.
Although Naruto had many Shadow Clones, only using Taijutsu posed no threat to him. After all, he possessed Chakra Blades made of chakra tal that could cut through anything like mud.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto once again replenished his Shadow Clones.
"Wind Release: Gale Palm!" This ti, the Shadow Clones no longer charged forward but ford hand signs together.
Countless winds mixed together, forming an even fiercer wind. Asuma looked at the sudden storm, and his expression stiffened.
He didn't have ti to think and quickly ford hand signs. Wind Release: Great Vacuum Sphere!
Asuma took a deep breath, then exhaled a giant sphere of wind.
The wind sphere and the storm collided, and in an instant, the ground trembled, and all the shattered rocks and dust were swept up.
The two wind masses ford a stalemate.
Although the Wind Release: Great Vacuum Sphere had greater power, the opponent had many people and could continuously blow out wind.
"How does Naruto have so much Chakra?" Asuma felt bewildered.
But he was a Jonin after all, and quickly counterattacked.
Wind Release: Dust Cloud Technique! Asuma charged directly towards Naruto.
Midway, he opened his mouth and spat out a thick smoke. The thick smoke, instead of dispersing when blown by the wind, rapidly spread, covering all of Naruto's Shadow Clones.
"Wind Release: Rotating Shuriken!" Just then, a neat and uniform voice sounded.
Asuma imdiately ca to a screeching halt. His plan was to use the thick smoke to obscure Naruto's vision, thereby quickly approaching him for a sneak attack.
But now his sneak attack had failed before it even began, because dense shuriken flew out from the thick smoke.
The surfaces of these shuriken were all coated with Wind Release Chakra, making them far superior to ordinary shuriken in both sharpness and speed.
Asuma imdiately fell into a disadvantage. He desperately swung his Chakra Blades with both hands, deflecting the incoming shuriken one by one.
But the power contained within the shuriken still forced him to retreat. For a ti, he appeared quite disheveled.
"This really is… a unique fighting style." Nara Shikaku suppressed the urge to complain and comnted.
To be honest, in all his life, he had never seen a second Ninja like Naruto who used Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu in this way.
"When Chakra reaches a certain level, one can overco skill with sheer power." Minato ca to Akimichi Choza's mind.
The fighting styles between father and son were completely unrelated.
"Is Asuma going to lose?" Abura Shibi felt it was unbelievable. After all, Asuma was no ordinary Jonin.
"Asuma hasn't used his full strength yet." Inuzuka Tsu shook her head and said.
"Naruto hasn't used his full strength either." Uchiha Fugaku had seen Naruto's battle with Chōjūrō. He still hadn't used the Sahada and Rasengan.
Clanging sounds were incessant.
Sweat seeped from Asuma's forehead. Why do these shuriken never stop? How much Chakra do you actually have?
Asuma realized that if this continued, he might lose. He no longer hesitated and imdiately used Raikō: Senju Satsu (Welcoming Approach: Thousand-Ard Murder).
Golden Chakra surged out, forming a Thousand-Ard Kannon behind him.
As soon as the Thousand-Ard Kannon appeared, its thousand hands clenched into fists and struck out. All the shuriken were smashed away.
Asuma quickly moved towards Naruto. Whether it was wind or shuriken, both were blocked by his Thousand-Ard Kannon.
"Is this the Secret Technique of the Fire Temple?" Kosuke said in surprise, "The power is truly extraordinary."
"It's indeed not bad." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said.
"Can Naruto block it?" Chen's face showed worry.
He now regarded Rock Lee and Naruto as his true students. After all, they were the most likely to learn his Konoha Dragon God.
Kakashi was very calm. Because he thought of the Sahada.
Just then, Naruto reacted. He opened a summoning scroll and took out the Sahada.
"Lend a hand, all of you!" Naruto shouted at the nearby Shadow Clones.
"Wind Release: Gale Palm!" One Shadow Clone clapped his hands, enveloping Naruto in wind.
The other two Shadow Clones stood on either side, grabbing Naruto's shoulders and waist. They pulled together and flung him out.
In mid-air, Naruto gripped the Sahada. He aid it at the golden Thousand-Ard Kannon statue and smashed down.
"What?" Asuma imdiately noticed his action.
Wind Release: Rotating Shuriken! Without a word, he threw a shuriken.
But Naruto, boosted by the Wind Release: Gale Palm, moved faster than Asuma expected.
He dodged the shuriken with a single move, and at the sa ti, the Sahada opened its mouth and bit the head of the Thousand-Ard Kannon statue.
Asuma was stunned for a mont, then imdiately noticed the problem. His giant Thousand-Ard Kannon statue had shrunk by more than half in an instant.
Asuma's face changed drastically, and he quickly dispelled Thousand-Ard Kannon.
At the sa ti, a feeling of weakness emanated from within him. This was a side effect caused by excessive Chakra consumption.
"Sahada?"
Asuma recognized the sword in Naruto's hand at a glance. He imdiately rembered Kitazawa killing Suikazan Fuguki.
Asuma now only wanted to ask Kitazawa, Why do you give all kinds of Ninja tools to your students?
No wonder his Thousand-Ard Kannon statue had half its Chakra absorbed in an instant.
"Konoha Style Swordsmanship!" Naruto shouted as he descended from the sky.
Asuma naturally dared not touch the Sahada again. He quickly retreated.
With a bang! The Sahada smashed into the ground, imdiately forming a deep crater.
Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning!
Asuma seized the opportunity, spitting out a high-temperature cloud of ash. As the ash appeared, the surrounding air distorted, and rolling heat waves spread outwards.
"Sahada: Flying Chain Slash!" Naruto leaped up, and a chain extended from the hilt of his sword.
The Sahada flew out. It ignored the ash and bit directly at Asuma.
Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!
Asuma's expression changed, and he quickly spat out streams of wind bullets, striking the Sahada. The Sahada's speed was halted.
Seeing this, Asuma used the Body Flicker Technique to rush towards Naruto.
Chakra Blade: Straight Line! He attacked with both blades, weaving a web of blue light.
Good, I win! At this mont, Sahada was in mid-air and couldn't return in ti, and Naruto had no way to counter his Chakra Blades.
But he forgot about Naruto's Shadow Clones.
"Konoha Double Whirlwind!" Two Shadow Clones blocked Naruto from the left and right and kicked towards Asuma.
"This is really troubleso!" Asuma couldn't help but speed up, eting them with his two Chakra Blades.
Two thuds. The two Shadow Clones disappeared.
"Konoha Gale!" Naruto dropped the hilt of the Sahada, and a spinning kick struck Asuma's abdon.
His two Chakra Blades, which he hadn't had ti to retract, were kicked away.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly. When the second kick ca, he opened his mouth.
Wind Release: Dust Cloud Technique!
A plu of dust struck Naruto. He imdiately lost his vision and was forced to stop his movents.
However, his Shadow Clones had already surged forward.
Welcoming Approach: Thousand-Ard Murder!
Asuma instinctively ford hand signs, but found that his Chakra was insufficient to use them a second ti. The Sahada absorbed Chakra too quickly, leaving him helpless.
Seeing this, Asuma imdiately ford new hand signs.
Fire Release: Great Fla Technique!
The Fire Release, originating from the Sarutobi Clan, quickly spread, engulfing the nearby Shadow Clones in flas.
Asuma gasped for breath, then quickly picked up his Chakra Blades and charged into the dust. He couldn't drag this out any longer; he had to defeat Naruto now.
"Rasengan!"
When Asuma saw Naruto, he was t with a spinning ball of Chakra.
His pupils constricted, and he subconsciously raised his Chakra Blades. The Chakra Blades, enhanced by Wind Release Chakra, were extrely sharp and cut through the Rasengan.
But as the Rasengan slid off to both sides, it still injured him, leaving his hands bloody.
Asuma endured the sharp pain and swung his Chakra Blades towards Naruto. But as he extended his arms, he felt weak and collapsed to the ground.
He instinctively rolled his eyes and discovered that the Sahada had, at so unknown point, actively run out and bitten his thigh.
"Sahada, stop." Kitazawa appeared in front of Asuma.
The Sahada, hearing this, quickly let go.
Kitazawa reached out and began to heal Asuma, who had closed his eyes and fainted.
