Chapter 16: Sasuke's Defeat
"Ryoha, are you okay?" Looking at the boy who often made her happy engulfed inside the flames, Hinata muttered in her heart.
"Looking down on the Uchiha clan? No, I'm just looking down on you." At this moment, Ryoha's suddenly spoke from flames. Not for long, he walked out of the flames safely.
"You... How come you are unscathed? You were clearly hit by the Fireball Jutsu." Sasuke looked at Ryoha in surprise. Just now, that was already the strongest attacking ninjutsu he knew. After using it, he did not have much chakra left.
"Are you talking about that?" Ryoha pointed at the slowly extinguished flame, but what was surrounded by the flame was a piece of wood.
"Substitution Jutsu!?" Sasuke cried out in surprise. Iruka also narrowed his eyes. It turned out that Ryoha had already known what he already knew what to do when Sasuke was weaving the hand seals.
However, he didn't care. He really wanted to see the hand seals of the Fireball Jutsu. Although his Sharingan could not replicate any jutsu just yet right now, it was enough to track the movement of Sasuke's hands so he could memorize it and master this jutsu as well.
"Don't you know? Although the three basic jutsus are simple, they are one of the most practical ninjutsu in battle. For a person who is not even a Genin, using these three jutsus to fight is already enough. You idiot, You just foolishly used Fireball Jutsu for showing off."
"I don't think you have any chakra left. Even your body is exhausted. I'm very disappointed. Can a fool like you really be called a genius?"
As Ryoha spoke, he slowly walked in front of Sasuke. As for Sasuke, he could only throw shurikens and kunais helplessly until he ran out of them. Ryoha easily caught them and threw it aside.
"You.. How dare you humiliate me.." Sasuke was an extremely inferior and proud kid. When he heard Ryoha mocking him, he gathered his last strength to punch Ryoha.
Ryoha sneered. He grabbed Sasuke's fist with sheer force. Sasuke immediately cried out in pain.
"How can you be a ninja like this? You foolishly wasted your jutsu and can't even utilize the three basic jutsus properly in combat. You can't even fool your opponent, and your body is untrained. If not an idiot, what are you?" Ryoha held Sasuke's fist and suddenly pulled him up and threw him aside.
"Bang!"
Sasuke couldn't control his body at all and could only fall. He hit the ground and screamed again. He had never experienced this kind of battle before. He immediately fainted from the pain.
After that, Ryoha returned to the grass he had just been lying on and chatted with Hinata who was sitting next to him. He was completely ignored the other students.
"Well, next is Naruto and XX." Iruka quickly returned to his senses. He remembered the battle between the two and then continued to arrange the next round of battle.
"Hinata, was I very powerful just now? Were you attracted by my charm?" Ryoha began teasing Hinata.
"Don't... don't say that... I... I didn't!" Hinata had Ryoha, so she was not as unhappy as in the original work. Therfore, it didn't appear that she was rooting for Naruto for his hardwork to be recognized by the others. Though she still want her Father and Naruto to recognize her. She didn't seem to secretly admire Naruto like in the original work.
Right now, Hinata was very happy. When she went back to school with Ryoha, she got the happiness that she didn't have at home. Although Ryoha often made her blush, she was very happy. Her mind was very simple. She really wanted to be with Ryoha because she could get the happiness she didn't have before. With Ryoha, she wouldn't feel sad or depressed.
Now, she and Naruto haven't spoken much. Of course, this was not the original plot. She was firmly attracted by Ryoha. Though Ryoha was only an otaku in his previous life. So his experience in picking up girls was equivalent to zero.
However, it was easy to attract a seven-year-old little girl, who had always been unhappy at home.
After the battle with Sasuke, than four years had passed. In these four years, Ryoha had been training every day and constantly using the Sharingan. He activated the Sharingan all the time
Until his chakra could no longer keep up. In this way, he could continuously train his chakra and the Sharingan, also increase the duration of the Sharingan use. It was such an multi-purpose training.
Ryoha's goal was to be able to use the Sharingan for a long time. He wanted to use them for a whole day without any problem. Although this goal was relatively distant for him at the moment, he was motivated.
In these four years, Sasuke had challenged him every month. Although this guy was arrogant, it could not be denied that he was indeed talented and the annihilation of his clan sped up his maturity. He was far more mature than his peers. Eventually, Naruto, who had been competing with him, had somehow started to challenge Ryoha like him.
Having these two meat shields to torture every month, Ryoha used this opportunity to check the results of his training. Even they were injured after the fight, no one would be mad at him. Naturally Ryoha was very happy with this.
Today was Ryoha's twelfth birthday and graduation exam In these four years, Ryoha had gained a lot. Every day, he trained diligently, and fought the robots at night.
Apart from the ninjutsu he learned at the Academy, he had obtained a lot of combat experience from fighting Bulma's robots. He became more proficient in ninjutsu, and the speed of his hand seals became faster. Now, he could do five seals in a second.
As for the Sharingan, there wasn't enough emotional shock when he used them so it hadn't evolved. However, Ryoha had a hunch that he only needed a little bit external stimulation.
For example, if he fought a life and death battle with other ninjas, he would definitely be able to awaken the second tomoe because Ryoha had thoroughly grasped his current Sharingan. It had been at its peak for a long time, but it had always lacked the opportunity to evolve.
