Chapter 96: Mizuki's Collapse

In the Hokage's office, Kakashi sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, silently reciting Buddhist scriptures. He was afraid that he might lose control and go berserk. If Sakura used White Fang's Sword Technique like this, there would never be a title like Konoha's White Fang in this world.

"Damn brat, go to hell..."

Mizuki threw the other Wind Demon Shuriken with a flick of his wrist and jumped to the ground, quickly forming several hand seals.

"Doton - Earth Style: Earth Shore Return..."

"Such slow hand seal speed!"

Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke, and Lee all sneered. Mizuki's hand seal speed was so slow that it was worse than Uchiha Itachi's, and even someone like Lee, who specialized in physical techniques, could do it just as well.

"First, use the Wind Demon Shuriken to interfere, then use Earth Style: Earth Shore Return to divert our attention, and then launch a surprise attack?"

Sakura coldly chuckled and used a sword to cut the incoming Wind Demon Shuriken in half.

"Now is the time, damn brat, you're finished!" While Sakura was exhausted, Mizuki suddenly rushed forward, holding a kunai and aiming for Sakura's neck.

"Konoha Whirlwind..."

Two loud shouts rang out at the same time, and Naruto and Lee simultaneously kicked Mizuki's cheeks with Konoha Whirlwind. Mizuki's face twisted and distorted like it was deformed.

"Bang..."

Mizuki, who was kicked, turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared. At the same time, another Mizuki appeared behind Sakura, holding a kunai and stabbing it straight towards the back of her head.

"Using Earth Style: Earth Shore Return to attack the ground, breaking it apart while using the smoke as cover to create a shadow clone, letting the clone attack head-on while the original body sneaks behind for a surprise attack?"

Sakura's expression did not change, but a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

"If we were just students who had just left the school, we might have been hit, but unfortunately, the shadow clone trick doesn't work on us!"

"Ding..."

With a light sound, a short knife was extended, and the blade was pressed against the kunai. No matter how hard Mizuki tried, he couldn't move forward.

"How is this possible?" Mizuki's face was full of shock. His attack was blocked, and the other party seemed to have anticipated his movements and was waiting for him.

"It's a common tactic, using a shadow clone to lure the enemy while hiding to launch a fatal blow. But it seems you forgot!" Sakura turned around and pointed to Sasuke and Hinata-Neji, saying, "We have two pairs of Byakugan and one pair of Sharingan. We can see your every move!"

Hinata and Neji's veins bulged, their eyes turned pure white, and in Sasuke's eyes, two black tomoe appeared in his crimson pupils. They could see everything that Mizuki did.

"Damn Kekkei Genkai!" Mizuki's face was full of envy. Why did the other party have Kekkei Genkai, which made them stronger without effort, while he had to work hard to train and was still ignored?

"Do you feel jealous? Do you think they have Kekkei Genkai and can become stronger without effort?" Seeing Mizuki's expression, Sakura knew what he was thinking. She sneered and said, "In your eyes, people with Kekkei Genkai seem to be able to become stronger without effort. I can only say that you are thinking too much. You only know that you envy Sasuke and Hinata's Kekkei Genkai, but you have never seen the sweat they shed when they work hard. People like you will never have any expectations in your life!"

Whether in this life or the previous one, Sakura hated people like Mizuki who were jealous of others and couldn't see their hard work. It was like how many people said that Naruto relied on his mouth, but in reality, it was because he had experienced the same pain as them. People who attributed others' hard work to their talent would never have any expectations in their lives.

"Do you understand? Do you know what I've been through?" Mizuki roared with a ferocious expression, his eyes full of malice and anger.

"I don't know, and I don't want to know your terrible story. I don't have the mood to listen to your story. I only know that you want to set a trap to harm my friend, and that's enough!" Sakura interrupted Mizuki's words. Did this guy really think he was like Nagato or Obito Uchiha, who were deeply hurt by the world? He was just a person who caused trouble because of jealousy. She didn't have the time to listen to his story.

"Let's attack together. Don't waste time talking to this guy. We have to get up early tomorrow for the class division!" Sakura impatiently took a step back, and Hinata and the others all walked over, forming a circle around Mizuki.

"The special-made Wolf Fang Club from Amagiri Weapons Shop. Although it's a bit heavy, it's very effective when used!" Tenten took out a sealing scroll, and when she opened it, the ground was covered with Wolf Fang Clubs. Each person took one, and Tenten took the opportunity to advertise her shop again.

Iruka, who had stopped bleeding, and the ANBU next to him looked terrified and hid behind them. The Wolf Fang Club was full of sharp spikes, and one hit could be fatal!

"Tenten, this won't work. It will kill him. Third Hokage said to spare his life and put him in prison!"

Sakura's forehead was covered in cold sweat. If this thing hit Mizuki, wouldn't it just kill him on the spot?!

"Well then, I was planning to test the power of Wolf Fang Club on people!" Tenten said with some disappointment as she put away the Wolf Fang Club and took out another scroll. After opening it, a dozen or so sturdy baseball bats fell out.

"Use this one. It's a solid wood baseball bat with a thin layer of iron on the outside. Just be a little careful, and you shouldn't kill him!"

"I feel like this one will work pretty well!" Hinata said as she swung the baseball bat a few times, then tapped her palm with it, causing Hyuga Hiashi's face in the Hokage's office to turn green.

"Everyone, Third Hokage said as long as we don't kill him, it's fine!" Sakura said meaningfully, and the group suddenly laughed and narrowed their encirclement, their malicious laughter making Mizuki's face full of fear.
