Chapter 209 The Powerful Ishikawa, Kakashi's Mangekyou Sharingan
"Oh? I didn't expect it to be those two. What a small world." Ishikawa was slightly taken aback as he looked at the names that appeared quickly on the electronic board, then turned his gaze to the next match: "The second match is between Yamada Taro and Kankuro."
"Yes, Chief Examiner!" Taro, the younger brother, was the first to jump out and shout loudly, immediately praising his older brother Ishikawa's current status.
"Hehehe, it seems my luck is really good." Kankuro followed closely behind and landed in the arena, his eyes fixed on Taro with a fierce glint in them.
Before Taro could speak, Kankuro quickly turned to Ishikawa, "Speaking of which, this guy is your subordinate, Examiner. If he doesn't surrender and I accidentally kill him, you won't interfere, will you, Examiner-sama..."
In the end, to make it impossible for Ishikawa to step down, Kankuro even used a respectful title to directly force Ishikawa to resign.
Ishikawa knew he couldn't beat him, but a mere ordinary genin was a piece of cake for him.
"Hmph, Captain Ishikawa would never do anything like this! Besides, if you want to kill me, you'd better be prepared to be killed by me." Before Ishikawa could even speak, Taro couldn't help but step in to help his older brother out of the predicament.
He couldn't let his older brother, Ishikawa, be exposed and have something to hide in front of everyone!
But while that's what he thought, Ishikawa didn't.
With a sharp gaze sweeping over Kankuro, Ishikawa made no attempt to hide the murderous intent in his eyes. "Was it that I didn't explain the rules clearly enough, or did you not understand them? Or are you trying to provoke me?"
"I'll say it again, I will decide to stop the exam if I believe the outcome is already decided. Sand Village genin, if you want to die, feel free to try and see who's faster..."
"What?!" Seeing Ishikawa so blatantly protecting his own people, Kankuro was completely stunned, breaking out in a cold sweat and feeling a chill run down his spine.
Good heavens! This is practically a blatant threat!!
This is the Joint Chunin Exams. According to normal thinking, shouldn't you bite the bullet and accept it to ensure absolute fairness and impartiality?
This guy doesn't play by the rules at all! How is he supposed to fight him??
"Big brother, you..." Taro's lips twitched, looking at Ishikawa with gratitude and worry, unsure of what to say.
Even though this is our home turf, is it really okay to do this? After carefully glancing at the Hokage on the second floor, who remained expressionless, Taro finally calmed down a bit.
"Don't worry, I'm just following the rules and there's no personal grudge involved! Didn't you see that the Hokage and the Jonin from various countries have no objections?" Ishikawa said righteously, pursing his lips, while Kankuro gave him a look that said, "I don't believe you."
"Enough with the small talk, let's begin the second match."
"Let's go..." Almost the instant Ishikawa announced the start of the exam and disappeared, Taro drew his sword and unleashed a fierce attack.
If the opponent is a puppeteer, the best way to deal with him is to use physical attacks quickly!
At his full power, Taro unleashed the full potential of his Hatake swordsmanship. In a flash, almost a blur, Kankuro's head was severed from his body with a single blow...
"What?! Senior Brother Taro is that strong?!"
"Those guys from Sunagakure were so arrogant, and this is all they amount to??"
"Examiner, didn't you say you would stop the fight if you thought the outcome was already decided? But you were all beheaded and kicked the bucket, why haven't you reacted yet?"
"Could it be that he was moving too fast and couldn't keep up?"
"What a joke! He's a Jonin, how could he not keep up with a Genin? This is definitely settling a personal score!!"
In an instant, the examinees on the second floor all changed their expressions drastically and became noisy and disruptive. Some of the ninjas from other villages, in particular, were sharp-tongued and directly broke through their defenses!
This is definitely a cover-up...
Faced with the accusations from the other test takers, Ishikawa stood in the corner with a playful expression, making no move whatsoever.
Meanwhile, Taro thought, "Something's not right... Could that guy be...?"
With a startled cry, Taro stared at the severed head, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and his chakra erupted instantly beneath his feet...
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Almost simultaneously with Taro's instantaneous movement, the separated heads suddenly opened their mouths and shot out several poison needles that shone with deadly light!
At the same time, Kankuro, who was lying on the ground, also instantly transformed into a puppet, extending his limbs and lunging at Taro's real body.
"Just as I thought." A cold glint flashed in Taro's eyes, and a sneer appeared on his lips as he quickly sheathed his sword and formed hand seals.
Since we can't kill the puppeteer immediately, let's burn him and his puppets together!
"Hehe, the show has only just begun." Ishikawa looked at Kankuro emerging from his bandages, his left eye bloodshot but his demeanor calm as the wind.
What kind of eyes are those?
"A pupil technique? I've never seen one before..."
"I see, that guy also possesses the power of a bloodline limit."
Ignoring the astonished looks of the crowd, Ishikawa's left pupil trembled slightly as his gaze pierced through the wall, looking into the depths of the tower...
At the same time, "Sealing Evil Seal!!"
Kakashi watched as bare-chested Sasuke completed the technique and struck out with one palm. Sasuke let out a wail as the crimson technique covering his entire body quickly flowed back to form a new defense outside the Heaven's Curse Seal.
"Hmm... that should work! But Sasuke, this sealing technique is based on your will. If you don't believe in your own power, the cursed seal will erupt again."
"Is that so? Thank you, Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke gasped for breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and thanked him softly.
If that's the case, then this seal really suits him. In case of unforeseen circumstances, the power of the cursed seal might become his last resort.
"You've even mastered this sealing technique! Looks like you've grown quite a bit, Kakashi."
Just as Sasuke was getting dressed to go to the venue to continue watching the match and gather information, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears.
The next instant, Sasuke turned his head rapidly with fear in his eyes to look at the man who emerged from the darkness.
"It's you, Orochimaru!!"
"We meet again, Sasuke-kun." Orochimaru strolled along with his hands in his pockets as if in a leisurely stroll, but the fervor in his eyes was undiminished and even more intense.
Sasuke's body seems to be even more perfect than he imagined, as he was able to stand up even after enduring that seal!
"Yo~ I thought you weren't coming out, Orochimaru." Almost at the same time that Sasuke was gritting his teeth, Kakashi turned around gracefully and casually lifted his headband to reveal his scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan.
"If your goal is Sasuke, then I'm sorry to disappoint you! I will absolutely not hand him over to you, Orochimaru." Under Orochimaru's surprised gaze, Kakashi warned him coldly without fear.
As the last words fell, the three crimson tomoe instantly connected end to end, completing their transformation...
"The Mangekyou Sharingan? How is that possible?!"
Instantly, Orochimaru's expression changed drastically upon seeing the Mangekyou Sharingan! He stared at Kakashi with disbelief, greed, and fear, his mind reeling...
