Konoha's Master of Illusion

Chapter 44 do me a favor
Xiao Li, who had lost his weight, was full of firepower, and suddenly surpassed the speed of Gaara Sunako's defense. What followed was a tooth-ache-inducing thud, thump, and punch to the flesh.

The results showed that Renhua had only knocked off a layer of sand armor on the surface of Gaara's body.

As a result, the Forbidden Technique Eight Doors Dunjia began to show its edge.

Xiao Li opened four doors in a row, kicked Gaara into the air at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, opened the fifth door to reach his final limit, and then used Rirenka to complete one of the few highlight moments in his life.

Looking at the huge pit where the two men fell and the cracked earth around them, as well as Xiao Li who fell to the side and couldn't get up for a while, Zheye really felt that this battle was not in vain.

If he and Xiao Li were in a head-on confrontation, as long as Xiao Li came up and opened the Eight Gate Dunjia, he would definitely lose.

The power that is pure to the extreme is so powerful.

Rock Lee ultimately lost.

Even though when Maitekai came down to help him, Xiao Li, who was covered in muscle strain, got up abruptly relying on an obsession, muttering that he wanted to fight again, but everyone could see that he didn't have that ability anymore.

After all, the combat power he unleashed by opening the five doors was not proficient enough. The moment of hesitation caused by the muscle strain gave Gaara a chance to escape. In the end, his Urarenka just smashed a sand armor.

Gaara only suffered some minor injuries, but his fighting ability is still intact.

When Moonlight Hayate announced the result, Tetsuya could clearly see the pity expressions on the spectators on the second floor.

It is indeed a pity, but this is the uncertainty of actual combat.

The next four ended quickly.

Temari's Wind Release made Tenten unable to fight back. A large number of ninja tools were thrown out and all were swept away by the hurricane blown by the three-star fan. It ended quickly.

Choji in the last game was even faster. The meat bomb chariot fell against the wall with great momentum, and then Toss hit the back with a sound spear to win.

At this point, the qualifiers before the third round come to an end.

A total of nine people advanced.

Except for Sasuke who was still lying in the hospital, the other eight people were all there.

The Third Hokage appears again:
"There is still one month left before the third exam. You can continue to improve your strength during this period. I hope you can perform well in the future!"

A month is indeed a long time.

There are many things you can do during this period.

Naruto will meet Jiraiya and learn Mt. Miaogi toad psychic art, Sasuke will follow Kakashi to learn Chidori, Toss will go to Gaara to die, and Moonlight Hayate will die in the hands of Maki.

What can I do by myself?
Tetsuya kept thinking about this issue on the way back. He felt a little depressed when he thought that the third generation of Konoha's collapse plan would die in the hands of Orochimaru.

The third generation is undoubtedly very good to him. Although it has not been a long time so far, he has received a lot of care.

Especially allowing him to learn the art of Flying Thunder God.

Rationally speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen must have carefully read the details of his mission to the Rain Ninja Village and thought that he was willing to save an orphan of a Konoha spy. He therefore believed that Tetsuya had a good character and was willing to reveal the secrets of the village. As a reward, it is also a training for him.

This is something he fought for, and it's not completely unreasonable.

But this cannot rule out the appreciation of the third generation for him. The so-called kindness of knowing and encountering him is more or less real.

But the enemy is Orochimaru.
"What's wrong with you? You keep looking down?"

Pulled out of his inner thoughts by Ino's question, he stopped and said to himself:
"Thinking about something."

"Thinking about what?"

"Think about how we should fight Naruto in a month."

"Just that crane tail? He was pretty good today, but with that kind of performance, what's there to worry about?"

"There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world. Who knows if Naruto will suddenly learn some amazing secret skills in this month."

If Naruto really summoned Gamabunta on the spot, Tetsuya would really have nothing to do.

"Humph, why are you like before again? You are worried every day and are timid about everything you do."

"Is there any?" Zheye said in surprise.

Ino's words really reminded him that his mentality now was somewhat similar to the years before graduation. When faced with danger, the first thing he thought of was to escape, rather than try his best to solve it.If he hadn't suddenly realized her feelings after that dinner party, maybe Tetsuya would be squatting in the hospital and familiarizing himself with medical ninjutsu.

But here comes the question, how to deal with Orochimaru as much as possible?

It is not difficult to kill Mizuki, the most thrilling time after the stone tablet appeared in the dream was only facing Yan Shangang, and the danger after that was far less than that time.

If Hikoyama was a boulder, Orochimaru could at least be compared to a small mountain.

I just started to fear difficulties and dangers.

In addition to this instinctive psychology, Zhe also gradually realized that he had another thought, that the death of the third generation should be done.

Originally, the third generation would die, which was part of the normal development of this world. If you prevent the death of the third generation, how should you deal with all the changes that will happen after that?Simply defeating Mizuki, squeezing Ya out of Class [-], causing Neji to fail early, and maybe even defeating Naruto later, there is no particularly obvious change.

But the changes in the Third Hokage Immortal will affect all aspects.

All the way back home, Zheya hesitated in his heart.

Ino looked at him looking distracted and said several words to no avail. She got so angry that she slammed the door and left.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door.

"come in."

Keiko was holding a casserole in her hands, but it was Temari who opened the door.

After putting down the dinner, Keiko left.

Tetsuya asked as he opened the lid and smelled the rich fragrance inside:
"Do you want to eat something?"

"No, I'd like to trouble Tetsuya-kun for a favor this time. I'll thank you very much later."

When she said this, Temari was thinking about giving her a sum of money later and showing mercy to Tetsuya Yamanaka once the plan was launched.

Hearing her words, Tetsuya's hand that put down the chopsticks suddenly paused in the air, and after a long time, he suddenly put it down.

"Take me there, I just have something to discuss with Gaara."

Questions arose in Temari's mind.

The place where Sunagakure and his group rented was just two streets away. The distance was not far. For a ninja walking on the top, it would not take more than a minute.

Kankuro was still guarding the door, with the puppet crow beside him.

Tetsuya opened the door and saw Gaara sitting on the bedside. He seemed to be in a good mood, wiping his new gourd with a rag. This thing should be made entirely of sand. It was okay after being used in the battle. Get it out again.

Gaara turned around and nodded.

Tetsuya sat down on the chair by the window, less than half a meter away from Gaara, and said casually:
"Today Temari suddenly mentioned the matter of remuneration. I happen to have something that is within your capabilities, so I hope you can help me with it."

"Oh, within our capabilities?"

Gaara couldn't read his expression, and after thinking for a long time, he continued:

"What do you think."

Of course he wouldn't mind doing something for Tetsuya Yamanaka as a thank you, but even within his ability, there were many things that he couldn't agree to casually.

For example, it is obviously impossible to agree to a request such as handing over the Sand Secret Technique to the other party.

These days Gaara is indeed very happy, enough sleep has alleviated most of his violent emotions, and the roar and roar from Izuzuru that reverberates in his mind from time to time is not so annoying.

He is very grateful to Yamanaka Tetsuya, so Gaara also secretly decided in his heart to help the other party's request, and try his best to help.

If you really can't help, there's nothing you can do.

With Gaara and Temari watching, Tetsuya said:

"It's very simple. You can switch sides with Orochimaru."

Silence continued for a moment.

Temari was the first to react, fully unfolding the three-star iron fan behind her, aiming at Tetsuya Yamanaka's position in the small room, and asked sternly:
"How do you know? Say"

Gaara interrupted her:

"Temari, you're overreacting."

"This Gaara, what he just said is"

"I heard clearly about dealing with Orochimaru." Gaara spoke firmly, assuming the posture of a leader and said: "It's not like we are dealing with Sunagakure, why are you in such a hurry."

He looked at Zheye again:

"Tetsuya Yamanaka, I'm also curious, how do you want to convince us? How to convince Maki Jounin, how to convince the Fourth Generation?"
