Chapter 38 SCARLET VS KONKURO

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Konkuro was little nervous because he remembered how scarlet appeared behind gaara when they entered the village , but he soon regained confidence as konoha genin were not familiar with puppets .

Both konkuro and scarlet come down to the stage , scarlet and konkuro get ready and the match starts . Scarlet immediately uses clone jutsu and sends some clones to attack konkuro . Konkuro then keeps his puppet aside and then throws shuriken on five of the clones and defeats the remaining using taijutsu . Just as the clones broke down to smoke , scarlet suddenly attacks with a kunai .

Konkuro deflects the kunai using his kunai which falls near the puppet . scarlet was kicking kokuro's face which he blocked with his hand . they both have a taijutsu showdown for sometime in which konkuro was at losing end .

Konkuro suddenly grapples scarlet and lets out a grin .

Temari who was watching this sighs in relief and thinks ' She is not that strong after all ' . Gaara who was beside temari understands her thoughts and says " You think someone who can secretly come behind me will actually be defeated by konkuro , use your brain a little. Besides don't you think this match is proceeding too smoothly" hearing gaara's words temari gets tensed again.

scarlet punches the face of the konkuro , suddenly a few pieces of mask fall down and konkuro's face is revealed to have mechanical parts in the remaining places which shocks everyone .

Konkuro says with a smile " Now it's my turn " and suddenly his hands turn to wooden pipes and surround scarlet .

A hand appears out of the supposed puppet which was covered in bandages and removes the bandages which reveals us the figure of konkuro . His hand was flowing with chakra and five string like chakra were coming from his fingers which were connected to the puppet . Seeing this everyone realizes that konkuro had hidden himself using his puppet as a cover .

sakura had speculated " So he was controlling the puppet using the chakra from his hand "

seeing that naruto was still calm despite what happend at the stage sakura asks " Naruto , are you not worried about your sister " to which he replied " No, at the beginning i was worried that he might provoke by sister as any who provokes her will have miserable fate . But seeing that her mood is alright i am not worried now. Besides you see the expression on her face ,she is getting bored she will end the fight soon " Sakura was astonished by seeing that naruto who was always easygoing and playful was so observant about her sister . Ino asks shikamaru " shikamaru do you think she will lose " shikamaru looks at ino as if looking at a fool and says " You saw how she killed the sound ninja do you think she will lose . You don't realize it yet she is simply a she-devil"

Konkuro thinks ' She is skilled enough to ambush gaara , she might become an obstacle in our plan i will have to kill her here ' and resolves himself . Seeing this scarlet says " Aren't you getting too confident " . Konkuro moves his fingers as one of the wooden tubes floats in air scarlet then gathers chakra near her arms her forcefully frees herself from the puppet .

Konkuro once again controls the puppet and converts all the wooden tubes to wooden spear with poison applied on the edges of it . All the spears keep on attacking scarlet while she dodges them , suddenly konkuro attacks scarlet with shurikens which she dodges but suddenly the spears appear and scratch her cheek which makes konkuro happy causing him to smile but soon his smile disappears watching the scene before him .

As everyone were watching that scarlet was scratched by the spear containing poison, the figure of scarlet turned into smoke konkuro stood in shock watching her disappear . Suddenly two figures appear behind konkuro and grasps his hand and lock his fingers , these figures are revealed to be scarlet's shadow clones . The real scarlet then places a kunai on konkuro's neck and asks him to admit defeat .

Having no chance to retaliate konkuro couldn't help but admit defeat . Gekko hayate then announces Scarlet as then winner . As scarlet was walking away konkuro shouts " wait"

Scarlet stops , seeing this he asks "when did you replace yourself with a clone ?" to which scarlet answers with a smile " you see in the beginning when i created some clones I also created one shadow clone and then using transformation jutsu i converted myself into a kunai and was thrown at you by my shadow clone . You deflected me towards your puppet i mean the real you and from there on you kept playing with my shadow clone and when you finally defeated my clone you got ambushed by me "

Konkuro asks " How did you find out about me replacing the puppet ?"

scarlet says " You see I belong to the uzumaki clan and we were always one of the best sensor ninja's present so you can't fool me as i could detect your chakra from the puppet "

" I could have easily defeated you at the beginning but you see i have to show my abilities regarding good judgement so that they can promote me to chunin , also..."

scarlet then walks towards the poisoned spear on the ground and takes some poison , tastes it and continues " your poison is not bad , it is nearly one- third poisonous compared to my poisons but you see i am immune to most of the poisons " while inwardly thinks ' Good thing i have been adding some poison into naruto's and my food from an year, our poison immunity has increased a lot with the help of regeneration from nine tails '

Scarlet then moves towards konkuro and says in his ears " Konkuro i will forgive you for your intent to kill me for now . you better bring gaara to the valley of the end fife before the start of the third round. You better not tell anything about this conversation to anyone or else i promise you that your dear brother gaara will not be able to leave konoha alive even if your father or orochimaru helps "

Konkuro was shocked that i knew the information about their secret mission and starts trembling . I then go upstairs while grinning ' Orochimaru I will let you know the price of angering me '

the people nearby shiver seeing her grin . They felt that she was the devil herself . She then goes to her team
