This world...
Rock Lee's challenge is just asking for trouble.
"Even so, I want to learn from you!"
Rock Lee stood upright, placing his hands in a position indicating he sought guidance.
"Taijutsu ninjas are really troublesome..."
Uchiha Sasuke exhaled lightly, his body suddenly twisting, and the Lightning Release Chakra inside him abruptly covered his leg, directly kicking towards Rock Lee. His left foot struck Rock Lee's body as fast as lightning!
"!!!"
Rock Lee's eyes widened in surprise, instinctively raising his arms to defend, but he was kicked away, flying like a cannonball and crashing through the wall of a classroom!
"Lee!"
Tenten was startled!
Even Hyuga Neji, standing nearby, was shocked. The speed of Uchiha Sasuke just now was so fast that even his Byakugan didn't have time to see it clearly!
All the Genin in the corridor witnessed the scene, each with a look of amazement, as they had never seen Taijutsu so deadly in one strike!
"This guy... is strong!"
A group of Genin looked at Uchiha Sasuke in disbelief!
Even the two Chunin examiners nearby were startled by Uchiha Sasuke's kick; they had never seen a Genin unleash such fierce and powerful moves!
"Not just strong..."
A bead of cold sweat appeared on Hyuga Neji's forehead.
Compared to others, Hyuga Neji was Rock Lee's close companion. He knew better than anyone how excellent Rock Lee's Taijutsu was...
Additionally...
Rock Lee still wore heavy training equipment, which meant his strength and weight were considerable, yet Uchiha Sasuke effortlessly kicked him away, the speed so fast it couldn't be countered!
"I didn't hit hard, you can take him away."
Uchiha Sasuke looked towards Tenten, who was checking Rock Lee's injuries in the classroom. His voice softened without any arrogance after the victory: "Just some bandaging will do, it shouldn't delay your class' Chunin exams..."
"..."
Tenten nodded in astonishment.
Originally, she thought Uchiha Sasuke would behave arrogantly, yet this Uchiha clan genius seemed even more gentle than Neji, the Hyuga clan genius!
"As expected of a genius!"
Rock Lee struggled to stand, a slight sense of shame and loss on his face: "I can feel the gap between us; I could never be a match for a genius like you..."
"..."
Uchiha Sasuke frowned, feeling a bit awkward about Lee's low spirits, and spoke in a deep voice: "That just means you're not working hard enough! I've worked hard to reach where I am today. Calling me a genius negates all my efforts, and that's not fair! If you want to surpass me, then work harder and come face me again!"
"Absolutely! Absolutely! I definitely will!"
Rock Lee's spirit immediately brightened, becoming invigorated once more.
Outside the building,
two young men were also watching the scene.
They were Might Guy, the instructor Jonin of Team Three, and Kakashi Hatake, the instructor Jonin of Team Seven, both observing the exchange between their students.
"Kakashi!"
Might Guy raised a thumb, praising Uchiha Sasuke: "Your subordinate truly is a genius, just like you were in your youth!"
"Kakashi!"
Might Guy's voice suddenly grew loud, his tone filled with suppressed excitement: "My student has found a new target to challenge; our youth continues to burn in the next generation. Let's have our own youthful, heated battle too!"
"No."
Kakashi Hatake was almost speechless with Guy's proposal, waving his hand to refuse the match. He knew a bit about Might Guy and Team Three's information, quietly reminding him: "Your student really picked the wrong opponent. Sasuke now might not even be someone I could defeat, even with my Lightning Blade..."
"!!!"
Might Guy's face lit up with excitement, feeling the hot blood coursing through his body: "Then let me challenge him as Lee's future opponent!"
"Hey hey, calm down..."
Kakashi Hatake watched his friend's off-kilter manner, quickly grabbing the hyped-up Might Guy: "Sasuke is still a child. You're a Jonin!"
Elsewhere,
a group of people was also secretly observing everything.
A young, white-haired man wearing glasses stood in a corner, a peculiar smile on his lips, with two tall and robust figures standing at his side.
One of the tall Genin took a look and spoke in a deep voice: "Yakushi Kabuto, that Uchiha Sasuke kid seems quite unusual..."
"Of course."
The young man adjusted his glasses, his smile appearing pleased: "He has already mastered the Raikage Hiden from The Hidden Cloud Village at this age, it's truly unbelievable..."
"..."
The two tall Genin didn't quite understand.
Due to their limited knowledge of the Ninja World, they didn't realize how astonishing Uchiha Sasuke's kick defeating Rock Lee was, but Yakushi Kabuto, who once worked as a spy and loved gathering information, knew how terrifying that kick was!
Just as Yakushi Kabuto intended to continue speaking, he noticed Uchiha Sasuke leaving and seemingly sensing his observation, suddenly looking over!
Hmm...
Yakushi Kabuto?
Uchiha Sasuke saw the young, white-haired man hiding in the corner and couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, but his face quickly turned to realization.
Yakushi Kabuto appearing in the Chunin exams wasn't all that surprising. After all, in the real world, Yakushi Kabuto had participated in this very Chunin exam.
"..."
Yakushi Kabuto slightly lowered his head, pretending to adjust his glasses to act like a normal Genin under Uchiha Sasuke's watch, seemingly trying not to draw attention.
"That kid..."
"His perception is sharp as well..."
"..."
"Yakushi Kabuto..."
Uchiha Sasuke could never forget Yakushi Kabuto. His eyes finally gleamed with a bright light, and a confident smile appeared on his face: "If the chance to leave this world lies with certain people..."
Whether it's Karin or Yakushi Kabuto, they are my opportunities to leave this world!
Because both of them are absolute confidants to Akihara Kagura in the real world, the kind that Akihara Kagura would trust with his life, despite never actually encountering any real danger...
According to Uchiha Sasuke's knowledge of Akihara Kagura, Akihara Kagura would never ignore Karin or Yakushi Kabuto, because they are too important to him, even to the point of separating Kabuto from big plans to keep him out of trouble!
Akihara Kagura will definitely make contact with one of the two, Yakushi Kabuto or Karin! If I can meet Karin and Yakushi Kabuto during the Chunin exams, I will surely find the opportunity to leave this world!
However,
there is a slight problem.
In the real world, Uchiha Itachi nearly killed Yakushi Nonou, which made Yakushi Kabuto harbor a strong resentment towards the Uchiha clan. Who knows if this world's Yakushi Kabuto will have the same tendency...
"I'll find a chance to make contact soon..."
Uchiha Sasuke pondered to himself, thinking of how to approach Yakushi Kabuto: "I remember that Yakushi Kabuto's most respected person is the director of Konoha Orphanage, Yakushi Nonou, and the person he hates the most is that Shimura Danzo..."
"That guy is just like Akihara Kagura, even though most of the time he's not a bad person, his way of doing things can be even more ruthless than Akihara Kagura. Even Akihara Kagura finds him extreme..."
"And also..."
"The strange smile that Yakushi Kabuto showed just now..."
"It seems like this world's Yakushi Kabuto knows everything too, that guy must know the truth about my being here, I have to find a secret opportunity to discuss it with him so he can tell me how to leave..."
