Chapter 842 Abrupt Defeat
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Fight!”Instantly, something that nobody expected happened. An in-fighting broke out among the crows flying in the sky as they.
Two murders of crows covered the sky above the stadium as they fought amongst themselves.
The light in the stadium was dimmed, countless black feathers were continuously swirling in the sky, and a reddish hue started to cover the arena giving it a surreal scene, as if an illusion.
Naruto scratched his head with a puzzled look, “What’s happening?”
Neji tried to explain, but he did not know how to explain either.
He was certain that the crows were not Genjutsu as he is able to perceive their chakra with his Byakugan, however, he couldn’t deny that everything looked so surreal.
Different from Naruto and Neji’s confusion, Sasuke was taken aback, “They are fighting amongst themselves? Why? Did Shisui-nii-san lose control of them?”
The other Uchiha Clansmen sitting in the stands had a similar doubt.
Fugaku and Shinichi instantly understood the reason behind such a strangeness, and explained, “It’s not that there is infighting among the crows, rather, there are two different murder crows fighting each other.”
Neji asked in surprise, “Meaning Sensei also uses crow summons?”
Shinichi nodded, “Seems to be the case.”
It was exactly as Shinichi had guessed, there were two different murders of crows fighting each other. One was summoned by Shisui, while the other was summoned by Kuroto. It’s just that Kuroto had cleverly mixed his summoned crows with Shisui’s so it was difficult to identify which crow was summoned by Kuroto and which one was summoned by Shisui.
Thud! Thud! thud! Thud! THUD!
Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof! POOF!
As the battle became fiercer, the bodies of dead or injured crows started to fall on the ground with muffled sounds and they continued to disappear leaving behind a cloud of white smoke. It didn’t take long for their number to dwindle.
By the time all the crows had disappeared, the figure of Shisui also collapsed on the ground, panting and injured, there were several tears and cuts on his body.
Shisui tried to get up once again, however, his body was weakened and he didn’t have any energy left, “Sigh… Kuroto-san. It seems this is my defeat.”
It was difficult to determine why and how Shisui got injured, but the fact of the matter is, that Uchiha Shisui wasn’t in the state to be able to continue the fight and admit defeat.
“Shisui… you really get careless sometimes.” Said Kuroto with a sigh, then helped Shisui get up.
…
“Shisui-nii-san actually lost?” Sasuke muttered in shock, and asked in disbelief, “But how? It doesn’t make any sense! He… he has yet to use his Mangekyou Sharingan!”
Naruto and Neji had similar doubts.
Shinichi answered, “The answer is quite obvious… From the beginning, the entire battle was in Bo–… ah… I mean in Hyuga Kuroto’s hands. The Kenjutsu battle and the battle between their summons were a distraction all along… The real weapon here was the poison that worked before Shisui could use his Mangekyou Sharingan.”
“Poison?!” Sasuke, Naruto, and Neji muttered in shock.
Shinichi nodded, “Yes… You, kids, may not know this, but your principal is a poison master, and he is very creative with his poisons.”
Sasuke was not satisfied, “But how can he defeat Shisui-nii-san with poison? He… he has the Mangekyou Sharingan!”
Shinichi shook his head, “Mangekyou Sharingan is not an omnipotent kid, just accept this fact!”
Neji asked, “But… when did Sensei use poison? Was it in the sword?”
Shinichi shrugged, “I am not certain either… but my guess is… that red hue we saw a while ago was the poison all along, and it was being constantly dispersed on the battlefield, although I am a little confused about how he dispersed the poison without alerting Shisui and the rest of us, he did it anyway. As the concentration of the poison increased in the air, it gained a reddish color. Once the poison was dispersed, Hyuga Kuroto’s win was all but assured, all he needed to do was stall the battle until the poison took its effect on Shisui, and Shisui could no longer fight. This just shows how dangerous he can be in a battle.”
It was exactly as Shinichi had guessed. Slowly and steadily a poison that he prepared himself was covering the arena through the battle. Once inhaled, under normal conditions, this poison will only cause mild hallucinations as everyone in the stands experienced but under high-speed movement, it will have dire effects affecting the decision-making and movement ability of a person just like it did with Shisui.
Although Shisui has the strength of a Super Kage, he did not take into account the possibility of Kuroto using such poison for the battle, hence he lost. It’s as simple as that.
Of course, not everyone was able to understand the exact cause of Uchiha Shisui’s abrupt defeat.
…
VIP Stands
As the result of the first battle became clear, Sandaime finally breathed a sigh of relief.
By now, he also understood the entire course of the battle and how the poison Kuroto dispersed in the air was his real weapon. He isn’t sure whether Kuroto and Shisui had made pre-arrangements for such a battle, but the result is what he desired.
‘!00 million Ryo were not spent in vain.’ Sandaime thought as he looked at the figure of Kuroto and Shisui in the arena.
…
At the same time, Jiraiya and Kakashi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the battle between Kuroto and Shisui was full of ups and downs and ended a bit too abruptly, it was finally back on track and produced the result that they desired.
On the other hand, Shizune and Tsunade were not as happy as the others.
Shizune was in tears and stared at the two people with a blank expression, “If… if we hadn’t withdrawn our money we bet on Kuroto-kun… then… then…!”
Tsunade’s lips twitched and she tried to explain, but then she remembered that she still placed a bit in Kakashi’s favor, which was a sure-win opportunity, and said, “Don’t worry… Well, so what if we did not win anything, we did not lose anything either. Now… Kakashi is also there, and he is sure to win! So, we will still make a lot of money and we will be able to pay back our debts.”
