"So fast, even if I see it, I can't react." Shisui quickly got up, thinking in his heart.
He wasn't surprised by this, after all, it was Mokgetsu. This kind of speed was already restrained a lot. If Mokgetsu went all out, Shisui thought he probably wouldn't even be able to see it.
"In that case, I must maintain rapid movement for a long time." Shisui didn't give up but instead thought of a countermeasure.
To truly defeat Mokgetsu is naturally impossible, but he only needs to complete the training, which is still possible.
Because Mokgetsu would surely hold back to some extent and give opportunities. Otherwise, how could they get close if Mokgetsu used Breath of Rock Full Concentration combined with Transparent World? If he can seize the opportunity given by Mokgetsu, he might complete the training.
Having knocked Shisui away, Mokgetsu didn't pursue him but instead smiled at Shizune and said, "Won't you give it a try? Even if not for the reward, you could gain some combat experience."
Shizune glanced at Shisui and Anko, hesitated for a moment, and finally used Basic Breathing to walk towards Mokgetsu and assumed a Taijutsu stance.
Both of her teammates had taken a beating; it felt a bit out of place if she didn't go too.
Shizune looked at Mokgetsu seriously, took a deep breath, and swung a left hook at Mokgetsu.
She knew in her heart it was impossible to snatch the bell since even Shisui, much stronger than her, had quickly retreated, let alone her.
But Shizune wouldn't slack off just because defeat was certain, just like how she always advised Tsunade not to drink until she passed out, knowing Tsunade wouldn't listen, but she still did what she had to do.
Mokgetsu reached out to grab Shizune's punching fist, but Shizune's left hook was just a feint. Chakra condensed on her leg exploded as she kicked out a beautiful Tornado Kick.
But in Mokgetsu's eyes, Shizune's speed was simply too slow. Mokgetsu blocked the incoming Tornado Kick with his right hand and then effortlessly tossed Shizune aside.
"Fire Release: Impatiens Claw Red!"
Shisui, who had been waiting for the right moment, immediately gathered Chakra and spewed out a large amount of flames, followed by throwing a barrage of shuriken.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Each shuriken, carrying flames, hurtled towards Mokgetsu.
The speed of the Impatiens Claw Red was much faster than the Great Fireball. Mokgetsu acknowledged it by dodging instead of taking it head-on.
Rumble!!
The flaming shurikens hit the ground and caused explosions, charring the surface black.
"Such a strong Fire Release Ninjutsu." Anko watched the power and destruction of Shisui's Impatiens Claw Red and thought back to her own little fireball, feeling the gap between people was really big.
The gap between her, ranked second in her year, and Shisui, ranked first, might be wider than the gap between her and the last in the year.
Anko was really curious about how Shisui cultivated. Everyone has two eyes, two ears, and one nose, so why is he so much more impressive than others?
"Oh right, Shisui's eyes can turn red." Anko suddenly remembered that Shisui was indeed different from them. The eyes of an average person wouldn't turn so red from lack of sleep.
"Illusion Instant Body Jutsu!"
Shisui formed seals rapidly, and over twenty Shisui figures appeared on the field, all running around Mokgetsu at high speed.
Mokgetsu didn't use the Byakugan or Transparent World; he quietly waited in place for Shisui's next move.
Suddenly, a Shisui charged straight at Mokgetsu from the front.
Mokgetsu swung his left hand through the air, and a Qi Force shot out rapidly, instantly hitting the advancing Shisui and causing it to disperse like an illusion.
Mokgetsu was not surprised by this; who would run around so many laps only to attack from the front? It was obviously a distraction clone.
As Mokgetsu expected, the moment his hand swung, Shisui on Konoha's left side suddenly dashed out, reaching for Mokgetsu's waist.
Crackle crackle!!
Mokgetsu's right hand burst out with dazzling purple electric light, splitting into several currents rushing towards the approaching Shisui on the side.
Zap zap zap!!
The Shisui charging from the side dissipated upon contact with the electricity, and due to its broad coverage, several nearby shadows also disappeared with it.
Seeing Mokgetsu use the Lighting Release without Seal, another Shisui from the right side pounced forward.
Bam!
Noticing the movement, Mokgetsu immediately swung his right hand to the right side, and the hit Shisui immediately turned into smoke and dispersed; this time, it was a Shadow Clone.
"The opportunity has come!"
The real Shisui, who had been constantly moving, flashed his eyes and immediately let the remaining Shadow Clone and illusion continue the distraction. Meanwhile, he gathered Chakra, preparing to take advantage of Mokgetsu's unguarded moment to snatch the bell at the fastest speed.
"So amazing." Anko, watching the dazzling battle, couldn't help but think of buying some dango to eat while watching; it was too exciting.
Just when Anko thought Shisui was going to succeed, Mokgetsu shifted in a flash, appearing beside Shisui and tossing him away when Shisui's fingers were less than three centimeters from the bell.
"If your speed was just a little faster, you might have succeeded." Mokgetsu encouraged with a warm smile.
The gap was too big, making it difficult to strive, like buying a house. If you earn over ten thousand a month, there might be some hope; what can you buy with four or five thousand a month?
"Since I can't fool you, I'll bring out my true strength!" Anko puffed up her chest, lifted her head, and walked towards Mokgetsu.
Shizune looked at Anko with a puzzled face, wondering where Anko got the confidence to challenge Mokgetsu, especially when Shisui, who was so strong, had lost. Could Anko have been hiding her strength all along?
"This Ninjutsu power is terrifying; even a strong person like Teacher Mokgetsu may not be able to withstand it. Teacher Mokgetsu, if you don't believe me, you can come and feel it up close." Anko walked towards Mokgetsu with a confident stride, speaking in a serious tone.
