Chapter 18: Sasuke: How Should I Fight? System: Just Fight

Naruto's excitement was much higher than when Sakura had been teaching him earlier.

Finally, he had the qualifications to challenge Sasuke again.

Even though he knew the gap was huge, he still made a bold statement.

This obvious emotion made Sasuke easily sense Naruto's emotional ups and downs without needing to check the narration.

He simply said, "Have you really worked hard? Do you have confidence in today's test?"

"I..."

Naruto's head drooped immediately.

Feeling a bit guilty, Sasuke looked at Sakura and said, "Sakura, you've started helping your classmates recently, and you're beginning to consider others. That's good."

"No, I just tried my best to do what I can!"

Sakura lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed.

Name: Haruno Sakura...]

[Hearing the compliments from the person she likes, Sakura, who has a superficial personality, is shy in joy, but is already cheering and jumping for joy on the inside, as if she is dancing a joyful and uninhibited dance, "Sasuke is starting to praise me, so what should my child with Sasuke be named in the future?"]

["Hmm... I think we should find a way to create some opportunities so that we can have a closer relationship"]

[...]

```

Looking at the text content revealed by the narration, a question mark appeared on Sasuke's forehead: "?"

Is this the prototype of a dual personality?

How come it looks like two people!

And why does this inner personality make people feel so wrong?

But seeing that Sakura was so gentle on the surface, he didn't say much, but just said, "It's good to do things within your ability, especially to complete your job well.

"As a future ninja, it's almost inevitable to encounter battles where your life is at stake, so try to be aware of this in advance."

He wasn't reluctant to remind his peers at this stage to improve their awareness of self-protection.

Even if the strong are in front, there will always be a day of oversight.

And letting Sakura focus more on ninjutsu training and cultural courses gave him a little pressure to maintain the first place in the grade. The idea of the inner personality really repelled him.

Too weird!

How come these little girls only know how to think of outrageous things?

The school he attends should be a ninja school!

After listening to Sasuke's reminder, Sakura was so happy that she didn't know what to do.

After thanking him, she was afraid that her performance wasn't good enough, so she sat back in her seat, her whole little heart beating fast.

Beside her, Ino was very envious: "I didn't expect that you would have this intention to tutor Naruto's homework. I really underestimated you! I also want to get closer to Sasuke as soon as possible."

"It's just that Sasuke values people with stronger abilities! You can do it too."

Sakura smiled, "I'm also helping you understand the knowledge explained by Iruka-sensei, don't fall behind in the academic subjects!"

"Ah?"

Ino was stunned for a while, "But you've been tutoring me for a while, why haven't I made much progress in the academic subjects? It can't be a trap!"

Sakura said seriously, "No matter what happens, we are good sisters, right! You helped me, I have to help you, this is a testimony of friendship—"

Looking at those sincere eyes, Ino nodded gently: "Okay."

But she was still very surprised that her academic performance didn't improve much.

Seeing that Sasuke's simple concern could trigger such a big emotional fluctuation in others, Naruto couldn't help whispering, "Isn't it just to pay attention to safety! I can say that too!

"In the past period of time, I have spent a lot of time on physical skills. I don't believe that I will be defeated by this guy in one move."

While muttering, he thought that Sasuke had been recovering from his injury for a while, and his actual combat level might have fallen behind.

Although he might not win, the chance... seemed to be there.

But before this actual combat class came, the ninjutsu class started first.

Those things that are only tested after graduation in the ninja academy are actually taught in the first year of enrollment.

The basic knowledge of chakra, and even the methods of refining and using chakra are taught. Ninjutsu based on this is naturally also on the agenda.

It's just that the further introductory knowledge is gone.

At the moment, after Iruka started the stage assessment, Sasuke did not avoid it as usual, but applied for normal assessment, including actual combat classes and other courses that could be resumed, and then he went up to demonstrate as the first in the grade.

Quickly, accurately, and expressionlessly, he made a seal, and then another Sasuke appeared next to him.

"Wow! So handsome, Sasuke is still so outstanding!"

"Too perfect! It feels like no move is wasted."

"——"

The girls in the audience praised him.

After verifying his current ability, Sasuke dispelled the clone technique and returned to his original position, feeling his still full physical strength and having a deeper understanding of recuperation.

Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. After recuperation, his proficiency in using ninjutsu is as good as ever, and even easier.

"Next student, Haruno Sakura."

Iruka continued to arrange the students to test, and then scored them one by one, making Naruto sweat coldly and his heart beat fast.

Then he split out a lying clone, which made Iruka look a little displeased: "Naruto, stay after school today and go to my office."

"Ah?"

Naruto felt a headache.

Then he heard Iruka's endless teachings. He didn't need to waste time when dealing with top students, but he needed to repeat many times when dealing with poor students.

When it was time for the practical class, Naruto finally felt at ease and regained his energy to find Sasuke to challenge: "You better be careful, Sasuke, if you lose, then I will be the first in the grade."

"If the first in the grade is judged only by combat effectiveness, the ninja academy wouldn't arrange so many classes."

Sasuke responded lightly, without any immediate action, just looking at the information next to Naruto and reading the subtitles on it.

[Ninja: 1, Body: 1, Illusion: 1, Sage: 1, Strength: 2, Speed: 2, Essence: 4, Seal: 1, Total: 13]

```

Every time he quickly glanced at Naruto's information, he saw the other party's evaluation, which was that the comprehensive data broke the average lower limit of his peers, but he never felt anything about it.

At this moment, he entered the combat readiness state, and the relevant information became more obvious. Looking at the full screen, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

[The young host looked at the data of the opponent in battle and fell into confusion. He doubted whether he could defeat the opponent in seconds by just hitting him casually. Obviously, his suspicion was correct.]

[The huge gap means that this battle does not require any brains, only hands.]

[If you want to think of multiple ways to win, you can use physical skills to attack, far exceeding the opponent's reaction speed, control the opponent's joints, and win on the spot.]

[Open the Sharingan, you can find the weakness and win with one strike.]

[After extending the distance, use the Great Fireball Technique with hand seals to achieve an overwhelming victory.]

[...]

```

Listening to the narration prompt, Sasuke continued to check the relevant information and found that in addition to the information that made him rush without thinking, there were also battle plans.

All very brief.

Restraining himself from saying what he was complaining about, Sasuke returned to a quiet state, formed a seal of opposition with Naruto, waited for Naruto to attack, then dodged his fists lightly, grabbed his joints, hit him to balance, and immediately controlled him.

"You are not calm enough. When you punched, you forgot that you were also in my attack range."

Sasuke spoke from behind Naruto, commenting on his combat qualities with a stronger attitude, "Even in face-to-face combat, it is best to use your brain."

When talking about the opponent's flaws, Sasuke thought of the data of shown in the narration and felt that he seemed to have said too much.

The opponent's accumulation in this aspect is already low. Did he accidentally poke a sore spot?

Naruto was a little unconvinced by his grip: "The battle is not over yet, ah! It hurts, it hurts—"

When he cried out in pain, Sasuke also let go and let him stand up again: "If you don't agree, you can try again. This time I will only use my fists to fight you!"

"Okay! Humph—I will learn from this lesson this time."

Naruto gritted his teeth, loosened his muscles, stood face to face with Sasuke, and began to try to learn the opponent's movement.

After a little observation, he began to attack, but it was still a bit chaotic.

Like the system at the beginning, the communication with Sasuke was a bit beyond the scope.

At this moment, Naruto didn't quite understand the details of what Sasuke said.

But he didn't want to fall down like this!

Especially after this battle, he didn't know how long it would take for him to stand in front of the opponent like that next time.
