Chapter 103 - 3

Chapter 3: Fighting HakuNine-Tails Chakra has an extremely powerful effect in healing. In the anime, whether it was being turned into a hedgehog by senbon or having his chest pierced by Sasuke's Chidori, he could recover rapidly under the reinforcement of Nine-Tails Chakra.Naruto moved his mind and guided the domesticated Nine-Tails Chakra to every part of his body.The warm energy wrapped around every wound from the inside out, cells began to divide and regenerate frantically, and the damaged tissue healed and recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.The tiny needle holes caused by Haku's senbon contracted and closed rapidly after the Chakraflowed through, and the small blood beads seeping out were also stanched.The various scratches and bruises left from the previous battle with Zabuza's subordinates also vanished completely at this moment, as if wiped away by an eraser like pencil marks.In just the time it takes to breathe a few times, all of Naruto's injuries were restored to their original state.Naruto moved his neck, emitting a crisp sound of joints, and then slowly looked up at Haku in front.Haku wore a Hidden Mist Anbu mask, with a slender figure, looking frail, and long black hair fluttering slightly in the morning breeze.The surrounding ice mirrors reflected the faint sunlight, shrouding Haku in a cold light."You are done for."Naruto's mouth curled slightly, and the voice reached Haku's ears.Meanwhile, outside the battlefield.Kakashi and Zabuza simultaneously stopped the Kunai in their hands, both turning their heads at almost the same instant to look at the area shrouded by the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals.They saw a deep red Chakra rising into the sky there, carrying a terrifying aura that made one's scalp tingle, causing both seasoned elite Jonin to feel a chill and tremor from the marrow of their bones."Has the Nine-Tailed Chakra gone berserk?"Kakashi's Sharingan widened abruptly, his expression under the forehead protector changed drastically, and his body had instantly adjusted into a posture to charge toward that area."Kakashi, our battle isn't over yet. Where are you going?"Zabuza tilted his Kubikiribocho slightly to block Kakashi's path, a low and meaningful cold snort emitting from the corner of his mouth."Troublesome...""It seems I can only solve Zabuza first!"After speaking, Kakashi quickly performed hand seals....Inside the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals, Haku's expression was visibly shaken.This red Chakra, like a tangible aura, surged and rose around Naruto. The air was squeezed and slightly distorted by this power, and the gravel on the ground floated up as if it had lost its weight, only to be crushed into powder by an invisible pressure in the next second.In the mirror barrier, the temperature was climbing at an unnatural speed."Impossible..."Haku's voice carried a hint of trembling: "To actually materialize Chakra to this extent..."His words came to an abrupt end.Because he saw that the eyes of the blonde boy opposite had changed.A moment ago, it was the crazy look of an out-of-control beast, but now there was only a kind of near-cold calm.In a pair of azure eyes, the deep red Chakra light burned quietly in the depths of the pupils like a tamed flame, without a shred of violent leakage.Naruto didn't intend to explain slowly to Haku.Just kidding, he had barely recovered from the dizziness of transmigrating for less than five minutes, the memories of two lives were still fighting in his brain, and the Nine-Tails Chakra in his body had finally been suppressed by his Absolute Control. The most urgent thing right now was to take down Haku first, and then talk about the rest.To be honest, if it were any other person who had just transmigrated, facing this kind of life-and-death combat scene, the first reaction would definitely be to run, or simply play dead and lie flat.But Naruto was different.The ability Absolute Control allowed him to know his body like the back of his hand; the force of every muscle, the rhythm of every breath, every path of Chakra flow, were all clearly presented in his consciousness.This sense of control brought by omniscience offset most of the fear and anxiety.Plus, with Nine-Tails Chakra in hand, his combat power was directly pulled to the upper limit of the current stage, so if he didn't fight now, when would he?"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu."Naruto quickly calculated the number of Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals in his heart.His brain was operating at an efficiency far exceeding that of an ordinary person: the distribution of the mirrors, the distance between each other, the possible blind spots, and the most likely location where Haku's main body was hiding.All this information was integrated into a clear tactical map in less than half a second.This was a habit Naruto developed after developing his brain in his previous life.Calculate clearly before fighting, and once understood, then take action. If you don't act, fine; once you do, you must end the battle at the fastest speed.Naruto's hands formed a cross hand seal.This was the first high-level Ninjutsu he learned, and also the signature Ninjutsu of "Uzumaki Naruto".Bang bang bang bang bang...A series of dense white smoke exploded, and a dozen identical Naruto clones walked out from the smoke.Each Shadow Clone was covered with a thin layer of deep red Chakra cloak.The clones stood in a row, their fists clenching with cracking sounds, and a dozen pairs of eyes stared straight at Haku in the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals formation."Go!"Naruto's main body spat out two words lightly.When in doubt, send the clones first.This is the core tactical logic of the Shadow Clone, simple and brutal, but extremely effective.Especially with the reinforcement of Nine-Tails Chakra, the individual combat power of each clone was raised to a higher level, no longer simple cannon fodder decoys as in the anime, but combat units that could truly deal damage.In an instantA dozen Naruto turned into afterimages simultaneously, rushing from different directions and angles toward the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystalssurrounding them.Deep red Chakra exploded under their feet, with every step leaving a shallow pit in the ground, their speed so fast that the naked eye could hardly capture their trajectory.The amplification of Nine-Tails Chakra was all-encompassing; speed, strength, reaction, recovery, all pushed to a level that a Genin could simply never reach."So fast!"Haku's pupils constricted sharply.He saw blurred red shadows shuttling and turning back and forth between the mirrors, so fast that it seemed like they existed in a dozen directions simultaneously.Haku's fingers subconsciously condensed several senbon, clamped between his fingers, and threw them violently at the incoming clones.Swish swish swish!The senbon flew through the air, drawing a sharp whistling sound in the air.The Naruto clone in the very front lowered his body abruptly while running at high speed, the senbon narrowly grazing his blonde hair and pinning into the ground behind him, the tails vibrating with a buzzing sound."Missed!"The clone grinned, taking the opportunity to roll and spring back up.And just in the gap while Haku was dealing with this one clone, the rest of the Naruto clones had already rushed in front of their respective mirrors.Without any hesitation, the clones clenched their right fists, and deep red Chakra quickly condensed on the fist surface, forming a layer of visible Chakra."Shatter!"A dozen clones' fists slammed out at the same time.Crack...The first Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystal shattered in response.Spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly from the point of the clone's punch to the surroundings, and then the whole mirror exploded into countless fragments, refracting thousands of fine rays of light in the morning sun.Crack... Crack... Crack...The sound of shattering rang out continuously, just like someone playing a piece of tight-rhythm percussion music.
