Naruto: Infinite Favorability System: Ryuji's Rise in the Ninja World.

Chapter 20: “Kurenai leads Team 8 in an epic bout against Ryuji: tactics and power”



Ryuji cautiously looked at the three people in front of him.

There was a big difference between Team 8 and Team 7. The only one in Team 7 with a strong perception ability was Uchiha Sasuke. On the other hand, the three people in Team 8 had very powerful perception abilities: the nose of Inuzuka Kiba, the insects of Aburame Shino flying all over the sky, and the Byakugan eyes of Hyūga Hinata.

It could be said that the power of Ryuji's teleportation technique had been greatly reduced.

Moreover, Team 8 was not like Team 7, who only knew how to attack with brute force. As long as Aburame Shino's insects were still in the field, there would be endless possibilities.

However, Team 8's problems were also very obvious. Kiba and Naruto belonged to the same type of people: they liked to act recklessly. In short, they were impulsive. And Hinata's Soft Palm technique, though powerful, required direct contact.

Therefore, the only person present who needed attention was Shino. As he thought about it, Ryuji saw that the sky was filled with insects. Although it wasn't an overwhelming amount, the situation meant that Ryuji could easily be detected if he moved.

The corners of Kurenai's mouth turned up slightly. At first, Kakashi asked her to confront Ryuji, but she refused. However, after learning that Ryuji was known for his high speed, Kurenai accepted Kakashi's proposal. After all, a free whetstone is not wasted. Besides, if Team 8 defeated Ryuji, it would be a very honorable achievement.

Kurenai was also very satisfied with the situation on the field. As long as they continued and allowed Shino to summon more insects, victory would belong to Team 8.

At that moment, Kiba and Akamaru had already finished using the Four-Legged Technique and the Man-Beast Clone. Inuzuka Kiba was crawling on the ground like a wild beast. Akamaru, on the other hand, had transformed into Kiba Inuzuka, glaring at Ryuji with fierce eyes.

"Akamaru, let's go!" shouted Kiba. "Whoa!" replied Akamaru. I saw two Kiba running towards Ryuji very quickly. Because of the Four-Legged Technique, their speed was a bit faster than ordinary ninjas.

"The only thing this kid is good at is Kenjutsu. As long as he's not given the chance to use the sword, he's no match for Kiba," Kurenai thought from afar.

"We did it!" "Wow!" In an instant, the two Kiba arrived in front of Ryuji, and their beastly claws attacked Ryuji simultaneously from above and below. But Ryuji didn't move at all, just stood there silently.

"This boy hasn't unsheathed his sword. Is he admitting defeat on purpose?" Kurenai couldn't help but frown. You must know that defeat and deliberately seeking defeat are completely different concepts. However, if Ryuji wanted to lose, there was nothing Kurenai could do. After all, you can never wake up someone who purposely pretends to be asleep.

"I didn't expect it to end like this," Kurenai said as she turned to leave. But before she could take a step, she heard Akamaru's groan. Kurenai quickly turned her head and discovered that Ryuji had used Guy's signature Konoha Tornado Taijutsu, expelling Kiba.

Kurenai looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief. Kiba had used the Four Legged Technique, and his body was infinitely close to the beast. It definitely wouldn't hurt or sting if an ordinary ninja were to hit or kick it. But Ryuji had driven it off with a single kick.

"Damn it, apart from Kenjutsu he's also good at Taijutsu, Kakashi, why did you lie to me?" A hint of anger appeared on Kurenai's face, and she looked at the forest in the distance.

"Come back, Kiba! As long as you protect me, we won't lose if we wait a little longer," Shino shouted anxiously. After all, it took some time to summon insects before they reached a certain size, and Shino's attacks were very weak.

"Damn, this guy is so powerful, you have to use that move!" Kiba didn't take Shino's words seriously, but directly threw a pill at Akamaru.

For a while, Akamaru's size gradually increased and soon he was several times bigger than before.

"Gatsūga!" (Piercing Fang).

For a moment, Inuzuka and Akamaru turned into two tornadoes, roaring towards Ryuji, like two bulldozers, removing all the earth they passed through and leaving two deep ravines in their wake.

Kurenai shook her head helplessly. Gatsūga is so powerful that it can kill instantly if it hits. But unfortunately, Gatsūga is not very fast and is easy to dodge at Ryuji's speed. Also, Gatsūga is not fully developed. Kiba and Akamaru only knew how to initiate this ninjutsu, but they didn't know how to stop it, and it was also difficult to control the direction.

"This ninjutsu is a waste of energy," Kurenai said half-heartedly when she saw that Ryuji was still standing there with no intention of moving.

Kurenai suddenly trembled and a bad feeling flared in her heart.

"This kid isn't willing to hide?"

Ten meters!

Five meters!

Three meters!

Kurenai could no longer keep her cool. Gatsūga is currently in an incomplete stage of development and once starts, it is difficult to stop it. If someone gets caught in a double tornado, there is no chance of survival.

But Ryuji didn't seem to realize the danger ahead and remained motionless.

"Damn it, it'll be too late if we don't act!"

Kurenai hit the ground angrily and ran straight toward the two tornadoes without saying a word. She wrapped her hands with chakra and pressed directly against the two tornadoes with her hands.

But when Kurenai squeezed the tornadoes, she felt regretful. Gatsūga's power was much stronger than she had imagined. Although Kurenai was a jōnin, she was a jōnin specialized in genjutsu, and her physical strength was not as good as some ordinary ninja. To stop Gatsūga, a large buffer area was needed. If there were obstacles behind, he could easily injure himself.

"I knew I should have retreated earlier!" Kurenai cursed herself in her heart, but she was already in a difficult position.

Now Kurenai just hoped that Ryuji would have some discernment and leave as soon as possible.

But when Kurenai turned to look, she found that Ryuji was still there, smiling.

"I'm not done with you, Kakashi!" Kurenai roared in his heart and then continued to increase the chakra flow, trying to stop the Gatsūga immediately.

However, Gatsūga showed no signs of stopping and continued to advance steadily.

Kurenai closed her eyes, knowing that she was destined to be very embarrassed that day, and once again cursed Kakashi in her heart.

At that moment, a hand wrapped around Kurenai's waist, pulling her back and trapping her directly in some arms.

Kurenai opened her eyes in panic and saw a childish face in front of her, with a confident smile.

"Leave it to me."

[Ding dong! Kurenai's preference has increased by three points! The preference level is now fifty-nine points!]
