Uchiha In wanted to get angry, but seeing Uzumaki Kushina's serious expression, he couldn't bring himself to do so.
Facing her aggressive punch, Uchiha In's palm lightly blocked the trajectory of Uzumaki Kushina's attack.
"Uchiha In is too overconfident, isn't he? Uzumaki Kushina's punch just now sent her opponent flying."
"Yeah, maybe he just couldn't react in time. After all, Uzumaki Kushina is the Blood Red Chili Pepper, a monster."
"Uchiha In's usual scores are so bad, he probably only got into the top four by luck."
The surrounding students discussed animatedly, all feeling sorry for Uchiha In.
Pa ~
Uzumaki Kushina's punch was easily blocked by Uchiha In, and Uchiha In's expression didn't even change in the slightest.
"I misjudged him."
Orochimaru's eyes showed interest, and he excitedly stuck out his tongue, licking the corner of his mouth.
Chapter 26: I Understand
Seeing Uchiha In easily block Uzumaki Kushina's punch, the classmates in the room all showed expressions of disbelief.
Those who had been defeated by Uzumaki Kushina's single punch before widened their eyes even more.
"So strong! Has Uchiha In always been this powerful? Was his previous weakness just an act?"
This thought couldn't help but flash through everyone's minds.
Kushina's first attack failed, and she wanted to pull her fist back to launch another attack.
But at this moment, she realized that her fist was firmly held by Uchiha In, unable to move.
What great strength!
Uzumaki Kushina possesses the Bloodline of the Whirlpool Clan, giving her an innate abundance of Chakra.
Therefore, by simply covering her body with Chakra, Uzumaki Kushina's attack power and speed would significantly increase.
But she didn't expect that her fist, when it landed on Uchiha In's hand, was like a stone sinking into the sea, without the slightest reaction.
She couldn't even pull her fist back.
However, Uzumaki Kushina did not get discouraged. Since she couldn't break free from Uchiha In's grip, Uzumaki Kushina gave up on that idea. Instead, she grabbed Uchiha In's hand, using the force between them to jump up and sweep her left leg across.
Uchiha In also noticed Uzumaki Kushina's movement. Just as his left hand firmly held Uzumaki Kushina's hand, his right hand also directly grabbed Uzumaki Kushina's leg, preventing her from moving.
Uzumaki Kushina might be strong among her peers, but in front of Uchiha In, she was not enough.
Whether it was strength, speed, or combat skills, Uchiha In could be said to be much stronger than Uzumaki Kushina.
Currently, Uchiha In's only weakness is that he knows very few Ninjutsu; otherwise, dealing with ordinary Chunin would probably not be a problem.
That's why Uchiha In appeared so relaxed when facing Uzumaki Kushina's full-force attack.
Actually, Uchiha In could have continued to hide his strength as before, then narrowly lose or barely win against Uzumaki Kushina, but now that he has been noticed, Uchiha In doesn't believe that his hidden strength won't be discovered by Tsunade and the others.
Since it's going to be discovered anyway, hiding his strength seems unnecessary.
"Give up. You're still not my opponent right now."
Uchiha In also said with a smile.
Uzumaki Kushina struggled for a bit, finding that Uchiha In's hands were as firm as iron tongs, and her limbs were completely unable to move.
Is the gap between me and In that big?
At this moment, Uzumaki Kushina's unyielding temper flared up. Looking at the smiling Uchiha In in front of her, she always felt that his smile clearly carried a teasing flavor.
Damn it.
Uzumaki Kushina's mind heated up at this moment, and she directly bit Uchiha In's neck.
It was still the familiar movement, still the familiar taste, and perhaps even the same spot.
"Ah, Kushina, what are you doing!"
Uchiha In quickly let go and shouted at Uzumaki Kushina.
"Mmm... I won't let go... I'll bite you to death."
Seeing Uchiha In's flustered appearance, Uzumaki Kushina's expression became somewhat smug. The force in her mouth lessened, but she didn't let go.
Watching Uchiha In and Uzumaki Kushina's fight, the surroundings became quiet for a moment, then rustling sounds resumed.
"Is this a fight? Why do I feel like they're more like flirting?"
"I feel that way too."
"Do you think they might..."
Even Tsunade and Jiraiya, at this moment, twitched their mouths.
Their progress is too fast!
Tsunade was frantically complaining internally. Although she had seen Uzumaki Kushina confess to Uchiha In yesterday and had some psychological expectations, she didn't expect their relationship to reach this point in just one day.
And Jiraiya was looking at Uchiha In and them with a lewd expression.
Master, as far as I know, Kushina only started school yesterday, right? Their relationship has reached this point today. This Uchiha In is truly a master. Should I go get to know him later? Ask him for tips on picking up girls?
As Jiraiya thought of this, his eyes furtively glanced at Tsunade.
"Is it really okay for them to be like this? One is a future Jinchuriki, and the other is a member of the Uchiha Clan. They will probably be heavily targeted."
At this moment, only Orochimaru was calmly analyzing the current situation.
Then, he also asked Tsunade,
"Teacher knows about this, right?"
Although it was a question, Orochimaru's tone also carried certainty.
"Yes." Tsunade also numbly nodded.
"Then how did Teacher decide?" Orochimaru asked.
"Uchiha In is from the Uchiha Kagami lineage." Tsunade replied.
