Chapter 704 An Unfair Battle
Chiyochi led Karin slowly toward the direction where Sasuke and the others were.
Throughout the journey, Karin's heart pounded like a rabbit's, and she anxiously wondered if she would be criticized and condemned by others.
However, as she got closer to the crowd, Karin realized that she had been worrying unnecessarily.
This is entirely the chieftain's private matter, and the clan members usually don't show much concern or reaction to such things.
Moreover, when people see korin, their eyes reveal more friendliness and respect.
Whenever Karin passed by them, everyone would bow to her in unison.
Karin was a little unaccustomed to such treatment, but she gradually relaxed, and the anxiety that had been hanging over her finally subsided.
Once she calmed down, Karin's mischievous nature was revealed once again.
She followed closely behind Chiyo with a smile and soon arrived in front of Sasuke.
At this moment, Karin had a mischievous smile on her face, her big eyes darting around as she stared intently at Sasuke.
Under Karin's gaze, Sasuke felt as if hundreds or thousands of ants were crawling all over his body, and the strange discomfort made him very uncomfortable.
To make matters worse, Qianyao had already walked up to him.
At the same time, Naruto and the others greeted Chiyo warmly upon his arrival.
In this situation, Sasuke naturally felt embarrassed to continue standing there like an idiot, so he braced himself and called out:
"Master..."
Then, he lowered his voice and called out softly:
"Master's wife."
Upon hearing Sasuke's address, Karin was taken aback at first, then deliberately widened her eyes, feigning extreme surprise, and loudly proclaimed:
"Hey Sasuke, what did you just say? I didn't hear a word you said!"
Qianyao didn't stop them, since they were all very close and had been playing around together since they were little.
However, the debate over the name has now come to an end.
"I……"
Sasuke was speechless for a moment; he knew Karin was definitely going to play a trick on him.
Since there was no way to escape anyway, Sasuke closed his eyes in despair and shouted at Karin with a look of utter resignation:
"Master's wife!"
The voice was so loud that Karin beamed with joy.
"Alright, alright. Good luck, Sasuke!"
He uttered an inappropriate but encouraging remark, which made everyone around him burst into laughter.
Naruto was doubled over with laughter, almost choking on his own: "Hahahaha, Sasuke, you're so pitiful, you used to be just a junior brother..."
"Now... hahaha..."
Sasuke looked like he'd given up entirely.
"What are you laughing at! Master is also your principal, so she's considered your teacher. You should call Xianglin Master's Wife!"
Sasuke originally intended to drag everyone down with him, but Naruto didn't care at all about how people addressed each other.
He immediately turned to greet Karin, "Hello, Master's wife!"
The other girls, Shion, Yakumo, and Hotaru, also squeezed over, laughing and calling out to Karin, "Hello, Master's wife!"
Karin, hands on her hips, waved her hand and said with great pride, "From now on, you'll all be my juniors!"
Kimimaro's three-man squad stood to the side, not joining in the commotion, but their expressions showed that they also enjoyed the atmosphere.
"Alright, stop fooling around. You can decide what you want to call yourselves."
"Sasuke, your special training will begin today. Are you ready?"
Sasuke finally calmed down after all the commotion; after all, what's done is done, and there was nothing he could do about it.
The important matter of cultivation is paramount: "Yes, Master, I am ready!"
Qianyao led them forward to an empty space.
He beckoned to Yakumo, then whispered something in her ear and pointed at Sasuke.
Yakumo was quite familiar with this process and nodded repeatedly from the side: "I understand, Lord Senyou."
"Sasuke, come here."
Sasuke brought all his equipment today, including weapons and ninja tools, knowing that a fierce battle was coming.
Qianyao looked Sasuke up and down, and Sasuke's eyes were much more determined than before.
However, in Qianyao's view, this is far from enough.
He pulled a bottle from his person and shook it at Sasuke: "This is the Water of Life."
"As long as you have a breath left, you won't die."
"So in today's battle, I will have everyone fight you to the death. You'd better be mentally prepared!"
Sasuke's expression hardened; he had known for a long time that his clan possessed a sacred healing artifact called "Water of Life."
However, not everyone receives this kind of thing; at least Sasuke doesn't.
Moreover, this technology may be used in body cloning and for special medical conditions.
The preciousness of the water of life is self-evident.
I never expected that they would even prepare this for their own special training.
Sasuke looked moved and earnest: "Master, I'm ready!"
Qian Yao held up a finger: "If you want to become a strong person, the first hurdle you have to overcome is 'unfairness'."
He paused for a moment, then continued explaining:
"The enemies you encounter in the future may have all sorts of strange and unusual abilities, or they may be multiple people ganging up on you."
"Therefore, your first opponent is Kimimaro."
"You will each have two matches. The first match will be purely physical combat."
"In the second match, both of you are allowed to use all abilities, including bloodline limits."
"Yes, Master!"
Sasuke walked up, full of fighting spirit.
Chiyo gave Kimimaro a tactical hand signal, and Kimimaro nodded slightly, then moved swiftly and went straight up.
With a clang, Sasuke drew his Kusanagi sword.
"start."
At Qianyao's command, Kimimaro rushed towards Sasuke like a phantom.
[Wow, so fast!]
Sasuke felt a chill run down his spine. Without activating his Sharingan, he could only barely make out Kimimaro's figure.
When Kimimaro unleashed his speed, Sasuke completely lost track of him.
Sasuke instinctively spun around and slashed behind him.
Unexpectedly, Kimimaro pushed off with his foot and instantly sliced to his side.
The next moment, Sasuke felt a sharp pain in his body as Kimimaro had snatched the Kusanagi sword.
Kimimaro punched Sasuke squarely in the chest, and Sasuke's vision went black instantly.
He stumbled back several steps and then plopped down on the ground.
Kimimaro is three years older than him, and in terms of height, weight, and chakra, he is much stronger than 16-year-old Sasuke.
Sasuke is used to using the Sharingan, but without the Sharingan's observation, he lost without even seeing the person clearly.
"Cough cough cough..." Sasuke clutched his chest and coughed violently a few times before he could catch his breath.
Kimimaro planted Sasuke's Kusanagi sword in the ground and looked at Chiyo. Chiyo nodded slightly, indicating that it was okay.
"Sasuke, you've already died once."
Qianyao said slowly.
Sasuke stood up with a cold expression. He didn't argue, since Chiyo had already said so from the beginning.
This is an unfair fight.
He drew his Kusanagi sword from the ground and assumed a fighting stance:
"Let's start the second round quickly, Master!"
