"I didn't expect we'd be matched together!" Temari clanged her iron fan against the ground, resting it beside her.
Itsuki smiled when he heard this. "That just proves we're destined to be together."
Temari snorted softly. "Don't think I'll hold back just because you said that. Be careful, I'm going all out from the start!"
"Don't worry," Itsuki said with an inviting gesture. "I'll show mercy and try not to let you get hurt."
"How dare you say that!" Temari grinned. "If you lose to me, will that be your excuse to escape responsibility?"
"Then give it a try," Itsuki replied calmly. He had no intention of wasting words.
"You two!" Gekko Hayate coughed dryly. "You can begin now!"
He immediately stepped aside.
The simple exchange between the two made it clear they were familiar with each other, and the meaning of their words left many in the stands with ambiguous expressions.
Ino leaned against the guardrail, resting her cheeks in her hands, and chuckled. "Maybe this one will join us in the future!"
Sakura, standing beside her, caught the hint and glanced at her. "Haven't you made up your mind? You don't seem to care at all. You weren't like this when you were chasing after Sasuke before."
"I can't help it!" Ino sighed. "Didn't Lady Tsunade say she wanted Itsuki to expand the Senju clan? That means the clan will be huge in the future—lots of family members at least."
Sakura froze, surprised. "So… you've accepted that?"
"Oh, it's still too early to say," Ino said casually. "We're still young. Who knows what the future holds? No point in dwelling on it now."
"Just like you. You're still clinging to Sasuke, but he doesn't even glance your way. You might give up someday."
"Hmph! I'm not like you!" Sakura said stubbornly. "Once I make up my mind, I won't change it no matter what happens!"
"It's starting!" Ino quickly changed the subject, not wanting to linger on the topic.
As Hayate announced the start of the match, Temari immediately raised her massive iron fan and swung it.
Wind Style: Sickle Weasel Jutsu!
A violent whirlwind gathered and swept toward Itsuki.
This woman was decisive—when she said she would fight, she acted immediately.
Feeling the force of the storm, Itsuki only smiled and raised one hand to form a seal.
Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!
Several massive trees burst from the ground, surrounding and shielding him.
Trees naturally reduced the power of wind. But these weren't ordinary trees—they were born from chakra.
The raging wind tore into the grove, but quickly dispersed. The only effect was to ruffle Itsuki's clothes and hair.
"What? A one-handed seal?"
"Wood Style! Itsuki used Wood Style!"
"Isn't that the First Hokage's ability? No wonder he's so strong!"
Those who already knew Itsuki possessed Wood Style were stunned by his one-handed seal.
Those who didn't were completely shocked by the rare ability itself.
After all, Wood Style was legendary. Apart from the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, no one had ever openly displayed it.
"Wood Style?!" Guy exclaimed in the stands. "Kakashi, did you know about this?"
He turned and noticed Kakashi was the only one not surprised.
Kurenai Yuhi had seen it herself before. Asuma Sarutobi, despite his strained relationship with his father, still knew some inside information.
Kakashi, being a trusted Hokage confidant from the Anbu, had naturally been informed.
"I figured," Kakashi said coolly, eyes fixed on the arena. "Whether an ability is powerful depends on who uses it. Wood Style is rare, but it doesn't make someone strong automatically."
He wasn't wrong. A ninja's worth was defined by their character and skill—not just their bloodline.
Itsuki had earned the praise of his seniors through both.
"That's true!" Guy grinned, turning his focus back to the match.
"Is it finally exposed?" The Third Hokage puffed his pipe, smoke curling around him.
"Lord Hokage, should we take precautions?" Anko Mitarashi asked sharply.
"No need." Hiruzen waved her off. "By displaying his power here, Itsuki shows he's prepared for the consequences. I trust him."
At first, Wood Style had been kept secret because Itsuki was too weak to protect it.
But now? The boy had even repelled Orochimaru in the Forest of Death. He was strong enough to safeguard it himself.
Exposing it here would only serve as a deterrent.
The Third trusted Itsuki completely. That was the faith the young Senju had earned over time.
On the field, Itsuki's Wood Style not only shocked the crowd but also his opponent.
"Wood Style… you really can use it!" Temari gasped.
She'd heard Gaara speculate about this, but to see it with her own eyes was another matter.
Still, she wasn't one to falter. Instead of fear, excitement burned in her eyes.
"Then let me test how powerful this legendary Wood Style really is!"
She raised her iron fan again, pouring chakra into it.
Wind Style: Great Sickle Weasel Jutsu!
The upgraded Kamaitachi sent a massive cutting wind toward Itsuki.
Itsuki's casually raised forest wouldn't hold against this one. Temari knew that much.
But she hadn't planned to defeat him with just this move anyway.
Even before the windstorm hit, she bit her finger and smeared blood across her fan.
Summoning Jutsu: Sickle Weasel!
A white weasel with an eyepatch, gripping a sickle, landed on her fan blade.
"Sickle Weasel! Let's go!" Temari called, channeling more chakra.
Sickle Weasel: Slashing Dance!
Sickle Weasel leaped into the air, swinging its sickle furiously. One after another, wind blades slashed toward Itsuki.
Originally, Itsuki had planned to summon a larger forest to block the storm.
But when he saw Temari summon the sickle-wielding weasel, his eyes widened slightly.
This woman is really quite handsome.
Itsuki watched her—poised, fierce, and commanding—and his admiration showed.
Of course, he thought with a grin, she'd look even cooler in her black "Shippuden" outfit.
