Naruto: Naraku Grows Stronger as a Beautiful, Tragic Side Character

Chapter 33: Chapter 33 ”I can already use this knife.”

The subsequent conversations between the two teams made the audience understand why the task for this exam seemed so simple.

It turned out that collection wasn’t important; what was important was mutual antagonism, the survival of the fittest.

[I knew this damn exam had ill intentions]

[Actually, if they gave up fighting now, given the protagonist team’s personality, it’s very likely they wouldn’t pursue it]

[But the other team doesn’t know this, they can only rely on speculation]

[Once a chain of suspicion forms, the final result is an endless struggle]

[Human hearts are unpredictable, no one dares to gamble]

Kakashi quickly arranged combat missions, preparing to meet the enemy.

Some viewers noticed that his blade was different from before; it could be infused with Lightning Release Chakra, which clearly indicated it was a weapon made with Chakra metal.

[chakra blade?]

[I remember this thing was very expensive]

[Indeed, Sakumo himself only had one]

[Kakashi actually has such a high-grade item]

The screen flashed back at the opportune moment, presenting Kakashi’s past memories.

He was only four years old then, receiving the heavy blade from his father, struggling to hold it in front of his chest.

”Happy birthday, Kakashi. This is a Chakra weapon.”

”A Chakra weapon?”

”Yes, once you master nature transformation, you’ll be able to unleash its power.”

Sakumo stroked Kakashi’s fluffy little head and smiled, ”Keep up the good work.”

”Mhm!”

The young Kakashi nodded vigorously.

Time returned to the present; Kakashi could now easily draw this blade, holding it steadily in his hand.

Lightning Release Chakra coiled around the sharp blade; electric snakes danced wildly, emitting a piercing screech.

His eyes were firm, his fighting spirit high.

—I can use this blade now, Father.

[The love of parents for their children means planning far ahead for them]

[Sakumo truly loves Kakashi]

[And Kakashi never disappoints that expectation]

[When I think of Sakumo working hard now to save money to make one for Naraku later, I can’t help but smile]

[Hey, you ruined the touching atmosphere]

Kakashi initiated the attack; with Lightning needles and Earth Release, Shii could only stand there and take the hits. Might Duy followed closely, kicking Sumei, who was protecting Shii, directly rendering him unable to fight.

Naraku was hidden in the shadows; the screen didn’t show much, only precise and intricate projectiles proving that he was indeed concealed in a corner of the battlefield.

Kakashi’s blade sliced through the forest, cutting out sharp and cold streaks of light one after another.

The humming sound of electricity piercing the air was dense and continuous, yet omnipresent, as if a tide of electricity enveloped everyone.

After Might Duy activated the Eight Gates, the pressure he exerted on the enemy was even more direct and terrifying; his punches and kicks were incredibly fierce, like cast bronze and iron, easily smashing tree trunks and cracking the ground.

This made the audience exclaim ”awesome” and ”so satisfying” in the bullet comments.

For Shii and Yuko, who faced this pressure directly, it was not satisfying at all; every moment they had to worry about losing a limb.

If they took even one hit, ending up like Sumei would be considered lucky.

[This is the feeling, so satisfying!]

[This team really hit a wall]

[Lightning Release really counters metal weapons, you can’t even block it]

[One kick and he’s out, Uncle Dai is a true tough guy]

[Once the Eight Gates opens, I knew this kid was marararara]

[Kakashi and Uncle Dai’s attacks would not be minor injuries if they landed, the psychological pressure is too great]

Finally, facing a punch from Might Duy that had gathered all his strength, Shii directly raised a white flag and surrendered.

Might Duy had extremely strong control over his body; even at the last moment, he slightly twisted the direction of his fist, sending it with immense force to smash the giant tree behind Shii.

The fierce wind from the punch howled, combined with the thunderous crash of the giant tree falling, deeply shaking the audience’s hearts.

Only now did the audience have a correct understanding of Might Duy’s strength.

He was truly not just strong.

Hearing her team leader surrender, Yuko felt as if she had been granted a great pardon, trembling and collapsing to the ground, mumbling something.

After regaining a little strength, she quickly went back to pick up Sumei, trying every possible way to wake up the unlucky child.

The two sat together, sighing; this torment was finally over.

[Oh my goodness, armor-piercing round!]

[That punch to the head would really make a crunch sound]

[Oh, my century-old cedar tree!]

[Baldy Qiang is ecstatic]

[Hahahahahaha Yuko is really miserable]

[Sumei is even worse, he was down at the start]

[Yuko: I really appreciate it (sarcastically)]

Kakashi was very dissatisfied with Shii’s surrender. In his opinion, the opponent attacked first, and now they just say they surrender.

What, do they get to decide whether to fight or not? Are we just supposed to take it?

But under Naraku’s persuasion, he still reluctantly took the ”Water” card that his team needed, returning the duplicate ”Lightning” card.

When asked, he simply said it wasn’t necessary.

[Kakashi: You guys started the fight, and now you say you’re not fighting anymore?! No way!]

[Yes, why should we stop fighting just because the opponent surrenders!]

[Kakashi: Spineless fellow, get up and fight me for another three hundred rounds, marararara!]

[Why are there so many magnetic field eccentrics recently XD]

[He’s already henpecked at such a young age]

[Kakashi, stand up for yourself!]

[He gently places it in Naraku’s hand, but throws it directly to the opponent; don’t be so obviously biased, Kaka]

[I love Kakashi’s confidence so much]

[The composure of a genius]

[When he has enough, he doesn’t plunder others’ opportunities]

[Kakashi is a gentle child at heart]
