Chapter 137 - Chapter 136: Chidori

"Transformation Technique…"

As Boruto transformed into young Sasuke, a flicker of surprise flashed across Shinki's eyes before his calm returned.

"Why did Boruto turn into my dad when he was young? Didn't he always transform into Pain before?" Sarada muttered, her gaze fixed on Boruto's new form—dressed in black, hands tucked into his pockets—her heart stirred with surprise.

Naruto tilted his head toward Gaara and noticed the Kazekage's fists unconsciously clenching. Clearly, Gaara was also caught off guard by Boruto's choice.

"Hmph, that yellow-haired brat dares to take on my appearance," Sasuke muttered from his seat in the corner of the arena, arms crossed, expression stern.

Ino patted Sakura's shoulder with a grin. "Haha, this really brings back memories of the old Chunin Exams—Sasuke versus Gaara all over again."

Sakura sighed softly. "Yeah… Boruto really is something."

"Begin the battle!"

Rock Lee waved his hand, his figure flashing out of the combat area as the match began.

"Boruto Uzumaki—show me your power!" Shinki said, lowering his stance as Iron Sand rippled around him.

"Uchiha Sasuke!" Boruto called out with a grin before shooting forward like a streak of black lightning.

The wind howled as his speed tore through the air.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Tsunami!"

Shinki's palms pressed outward, and a massive wave of Iron Sand surged forward, swallowing everything in its path.

Boruto skidded to a halt, then slammed his fist into the wave—his punch tore through it like a cannonball. The Iron Sand exploded outward in a burst of metallic dust.

"Such… raw power!" Shinki's eyes widened. "He broke my technique with pure Taijutsu?!"

"But I've got you now!"

Shinki's Iron Sand surged again, wrapping toward Boruto's arm. But the blonde vanished like a ghost.

"So fast! His speed is even greater than I expected!"

"You said you've got who?"

Boruto's voice came from behind him—followed by the rush of wind from a punch.

Shinki spun, forming a wall of Iron Sand behind him—but Boruto's afterimages flickered and vanished. The next moment, he was already in front of Shinki.

"Boom!"

Boruto's kick connected, sending Shinki skidding backward across the arena floor.

Only the Iron Sand armor around his body prevented serious injury.

Rock Lee's eyes gleamed. "This feeling… this is just like back when Sasuke and Gaara fought."

Boruto smirked. "That's your Iron Sand? Sorry, but it's far weaker than your father's."

He raised his hand and gestured. "Come on, don't hold back."

Sasuke frowned slightly from the stands. "Hmph… that yellow-haired kid's acting the part a little too well."

Still, even he couldn't deny Boruto's growing strength.

"It seems I can't take you lightly anymore, Boruto Uzumaki!" Shinki growled.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Hands!"

Two giant hands of condensed Iron Sand shot forward with incredible speed, grasping at Boruto.

"Is that all?"

Boruto scoffed and punched—once, twice. Both Iron Sand hands shattered instantly, exploding into clouds of dust.

Fragments flew through the air, turning the arena gray.

"It's not over!"

Shinki clenched his fist, summoning the shattered Iron Sand from all around. The particles swirled like a black storm, converging on Boruto.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Coffin!"

Boruto flipped back gracefully, dodging every stream of Iron Sand with aerial acrobatics that looked almost casual.

Darui leaned forward. "Naruto, your son's strong. He's forced Gaara's boy this far using only Taijutsu."

Kurotsuchi sighed. "Yeah. Among all the villages this year, only Gaara's son can even compete. The rest of ours got wiped out in the first round."

Chōjūrō chuckled. "Konoha's Genin really are on another level."

Kurotsuchi looked at Gaara. "So, what else has your son got? Can he really beat Naruto's boy?"

Gaara shook his head slowly. "Before the fight, I believed Shinki could win. But now… Boruto's just too overwhelming. Even if Shinki gives his all, he won't beat him."

Kurotsuchi laughed and clapped Naruto's shoulder. "Then what's the point of fighting? Just promote your son straight to Jōnin after this!"

Naruto groaned. "No way! He's not even a Chunin yet. Let's not get ahead of ourselves."

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Wings!"

Iron Sand gathered behind Shinki, forming massive black wings. He took flight, dodging Boruto's next attack.

Hovering midair, he frowned. "Boruto Uzumaki hasn't used Ninjutsu once… If he did, I'd be finished."

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Shower!"

A barrage of Iron Sand pellets rained down on Boruto like a storm.

Boruto didn't move. He stomped once, the ground cracking underfoot as he launched himself upward like a missile.

He punched through Shinki's body—only for it to crumble into Iron Sand.

"An Iron Sand clone, huh?" Boruto said, landing lightly.

"Magnet Release: Iron Sand Fist!"

Shinki emerged to Boruto's left, his right arm condensed into a high-density Iron Sand gauntlet that crackled with static.

The Iron Sand fist rocketed toward Boruto like a thunderbolt.

Boruto didn't dodge—he met it head-on, one hand behind his back, the other clenched tight.

"Show-off Release: Ordinary Punch!"

Their fists collided.

BOOM!

A shockwave blasted outward, shaking the entire arena.

The ground shattered beneath them, debris flying in all directions.

Cracks formed across Shinki's Iron Sand fist—then it shattered completely, dissolving into black dust.

Shinki was hurled backward, slamming into the wall so hard that the stone split open. He slid to the ground, coughing up blood.

"This… what kind of power is that? From just a normal punch?!"

Boruto stood calmly, hands behind his back.

"I haven't lost yet!" Shinki roared. "Magnet Release: Iron Sand Spear!"

The remaining Iron Sand condensed into a long, spear-like weapon, its tip gleaming dangerously.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host Boruto Uzumaki, on successfully completing character role-play! Reward: All abilities of Uchiha Sasuke (Chunin Exams)!]

Boruto's eyes lit up. "Completed? Then I guess it's time for the finale."

He jumped back, planting his feet on the wall and crouching low, looking down at Shinki.

"No way…" Gaara stood up in shock. "He's not going to—!"

Boruto clasped his hands together.

Sparks flared. A bright blue current surged between his palms, crackling with violent intensity. The sharp sound of a thousand birds filled the arena.

"Lightning Release: Chidori!"
