NTHO: Chapter 22

"Wow, so cool!" Ino was completely smitten, looking at Haryu who had just landed. It was true, Haryu's physique, appearance, and movements all stood out among his peers. And his exceptional maturity, that hint of coldness, made many girls scream and shout for him.

But Haryu didn't have time to care about this, a trail of chakra-infused ki, carrying a numbing sensation, was already upon him. A jōnin's body wasn't something a seven-year-old could easily shake, even though Haryu had used his body weight, it was difficult to simply knock Haku down.

Haku, taking advantage of this turning momentum, raised the kunai in his hand and slashed downwards.

Haryu was a little nervous, he couldn't dodge if he ran. But Haryu used this speed to roll towards the ground, and then, using his weight again, he deflected the downward swing of the kunai. A shallow ditch suddenly appeared on the ground ten meters away, and a large tree nearby was cut in half. This must be the power of a normal kunai enhanced by Lightning Release.

After rolling twice, Haryu stood up and backflipped again, moving away from Haku. Haku had been pulled down by Haryu's two consecutive pulls, and he was just now getting back up.

"Whew, even kids can be so heavy." You have to know, because Haryu had started exercising early, his body was now mostly muscle, and his weight was naturally not comparable to that of ordinary children.

Haku gathered chakra again, and launched Lightning Blade again. After all, this was the most suitable surprise attack jutsu on limited chakra and flat terrain.

Charge again! Haku bent over and charged forward, his left hand raised flat to protect his head, he sped along close to the ground, the sound of the lightning breaking through the air crackled, and within three breaths, he reached Haryu again.

"It seems like his chakra output has increased. Good, this will shorten the time." Haryu thought, not minding the lightning flashing in his eyes.

Wind Release: Blazing Empty Palm!

Haryu took advantage of the Wind countering Lightning characteristic, using his most proficient Wind Release in time, weakening Haku's Lightning Release enhancement while using the recoil of the Wind Release to retreat again.

"Hmm? Why don't you fight me? No, I need to finish this quickly. I have half my chakra left." Haku was a little puzzled, since the beginning, Haryu had only been dodging or using force to counter force, he hadn't made a single move, which was strange.

"The time isn't right yet," Haryu stared at Haku for a moment, then muttered to himself. You have to know, Haryu could sense chakra, and at this moment, he was clearly aware of the chakra amount of the water clone in front of him.

"He still won't move, if this goes on, I'll cut him in half. No, Kakashi told me not to go too hard. Then I'll just cut off the chakra on the kunai later." Haku was a little worried about Haryu's safety, after all, he was flying towards him with a kunai charged with electricity, this power wasn't something a ninja academy student could stand there and dodge or block.

But Haryu wasn't an ordinary ninja academy student.

Crackle! At the last moment, Haku removed the Lightning attribute chakra from the kunai, and the kunai slashed across Haryu's body. But there was a feeling of cutting into flesh, it felt too hard.

Another puff of white smoke.

"Hmm? Another shadow clone? No, it's a Body Flicker Technique. When did he…"

"When you cut down the tree, oh." Haryu saw that this distraction was successful, and he had already arrived at the edge of the tree in the distance, so he was a little happy. After all, a Body Flicker Technique, besides the preparation time, had no other drawbacks. As an E-rank jutsu, its chakra consumption was extremely low, and it could be used instantly after preparation, it was practically a close-combat god technique. "Now, it's almost time." Haryu looked at Haku, who was now in the distance, his chakra was running out.

The high-speed sprint of nearly fifty meters and the powerful chakra attached to the kunai, all consumed a large amount of his chakra; now, the distance between Haku and Haryu was forcibly pulled to one hundred meters by this Body Flicker Technique. Now, Haku could only use his body to approach Haryu at normal speed, but even if he got close, he wouldn't have enough chakra to release an effective jutsu.

"Could it be, this kid's plan is to drain me? It seems I underestimated him." Haku sighed softly, this battle was completely controlled by Haryu, and he hadn't even noticed. "He's a really good kid."

Then, he ran again, trying to approach Haryu. How could Haryu, at this point, let Haku get close? When his own chakra was far more than the other party's, even randomly throwing jutsu was more reasonable than close-combat taijutsu.

"Teacher, let's end this." Haryu lowered his head slightly, clasped his hands together, and started forming hand seals.

Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Water Release: Water Disturbance Wave Technique!

Lightning Release: Earth Walk!

After releasing a shadow clone, Haryu immediately formed hand seals, creating a combination jutsu of Water Release and Lightning Release with his shadow clone. This kind of jutsu was perfect for restricting the opponent's movement area.

Haku was already within the area of this jutsu, and he was instantly paralyzed by Lightning Release, but he didn't disappear.

But Haryu's attack wasn't over yet!

Shadow Clone Jutsu! This time, he added two more shadow clones!

Earth Release: Weighted Rock Fall!

Wind Release: Blazing Empty Palm!

Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!

Wind Release: Wind Cutter!

Haryu's real body jumped high, then formed hand seals, adding Weighted Rock to his right arm, and slammed into the ground, shaking up large and small pieces of rubble. Then, two shadow clones also jumped into the air, the shadow clones summoned earlier were below, using all their remaining chakra, releasing a large Blazing Empty Palm, sending the two into the air!

In the air, one shadow clone used Phoenix Sage Fire first, and then controlled the fireballs to accurately hit some of the larger rocks; then, it was Wind Release's large-scale acceleration!

"Tch, there's no escaping this." Haku, still in a paralyzed state, knew that he was doomed this time, he shook his head helplessly.

The jutsu was completed!

"Yeah! Wind-Fire-Earth Combination Jutsu: Heavenly Falling Meteor!"

"Wow, that's so cool! Haryu, Haryu, teach me later!" Naruto, without waiting for the battle to end, rushed towards Haryu. Such a dazzling effect was incredibly appealing to a boy.

"Sorry, Kakashi. I let you down." The shadow clone dissipated, and the memory returned to Kakashi's real body.

"Haha, it's okay. I've already lost face in front of these kids. Let's go, I'll teach them." Kakashi smiled a little relieved, after all, such a powerful person was his student.

The children didn't pay any attention to Kakashi's approach, they were all surrounding Haryu, asking him this and that. Such a grand jutsu, these children must have seen it for the first time.
