Sand balls like bullets penetrated Naruto's many shadow clones mercilessly, and the sound of shadow clones exploding and disappearing was heard constantly.

"Um?"

Gaara narrowed his eyes and looked at all the shadow clones that had disappeared. There was no one around, even Naruto had disappeared.

Are they all shadow clones?

Thinking of this, Gaara noticed something and immediately raised his head.

The fists falling from the sky got bigger and bigger in his eyes, and Naruto attacked him from the sky.

The surrounding sand automatically gathered towards Gaara's head, forming a hard shield wall.

boom!

His fist hit the hard sand wall, and a large amount of sand flew away, including the blood that spattered from the broken skin on Naruto's fist.

Naruto gritted his teeth and glared at Gaara fiercely.

Unexpectedly, even with all his strength, he still couldn't break the sand wall. It was like an indestructible steel plate. When he hit it with his fist, his bones seemed to be cracked.

It's a little unusually hard.

"You are very weak."

There was no trace of panic on Gaara's face. Looking at Naruto who was so close, the unwillingness and unyieldingness in the other person's eyes were clearly shown in his eyes.

Later, he came to this evaluation on Naruto.

We've obviously made it to the finals, but if it's at this level, it's not even a warm-up.

Compared to the white one I encountered in the first round, it was much worse.

At least against Shiro, he basically used all the means except Shukaku, but he still won with great reluctance and luck.

But Naruto is too weak.

All I know is that letting the shadow clones swarm me is like a child's play.

"I don't want to destroy the friendship between the allies. It's better for you to surrender as soon as possible. I have no interest in you."

Gaara said again.

Such a guy doesn't have the slightest sense of accomplishment even if he kills someone.

What's more, if you really do that, your situation will become more delicate.

Before the murderous thoughts surged in his heart, he hoped that Naruto would give up as soon as possible.

"You panda eyes, don't look down on people here!"

Naruto increased the force on his fist again, as if he could make a sound of cracking bones.

boom!

The fist passed through the sand wall and hit Gaara hard on the face.

Gaara's eyes widened slightly, and then his body rolled out, and the sand around him moved with it, protecting Gaara's surroundings every step of the way.

"hateful!"

Naruto looked at his bloody fist and cursed himself for being reckless just now and shouldn't have accepted such an obvious provocation.

Gaara slowly stood up from the ground and touched his face. An inconspicuous crack appeared on it, and then disappeared.

"You are so weak and pathetic, then let me choose an ending for you."

Being hit by a fragile ninja like Naruto, Gaara's heart was filled with anger and murderous intent as he stared at Naruto.

"Humph, that's exactly what I meant! Now I finally feel a little more motivated!"

Naruto formed seals with his hands again, releasing powerful chakra.

"The art of multiple shadow clones!"

In a series of white smoke from the explosion, countless Narutos flew out, rushing towards Gaara one after another.

Comparing the number of shadow clones before, the number of shadow clones at this moment has exceeded the scope of normal shadow clones.

This guy! Gaara was surprised inside.

He knew the shadow clone technique, it was a very advanced B-level ninjutsu.

Generally used to test the enemy's situation and collect intelligence.

It is very rare for a shadow clone to be thrown into battle like Naruto.

Moreover, so many shadow clones were created at once. Gaara immediately noticed the fact that the other party's chakra was only slightly stronger than his!

Gaara's eyes became serious and cold.

There were about thirty people in Naruto's shadow clones who rushed up this time.

This number is already quite exaggerated.

Manpower sprang up from all directions, and Sha Sha, who was already stretched thin, had no time to defend against so many shadow clones.

Often, as soon as one side resists, the shadow clone on the other side suddenly rushes forward.

If it weren't for the instantaneous technique, Gaara would have been hit by the shadow clone's fist several times.

There were too many people! Gaara secretly felt that it was getting tricky.

Although they are just miscellaneous fish, they are still ninjas after all. This number can already make him feel troublesome.

"Quicksand Falls!"

Gaara looked at the shadow clones that were rushing up, and he immediately squatted down and slammed his hands on the floor.

Boom!

The ground shook violently.

The ground behind him suddenly cracked open, turning into a torrent of sand that rushed into the sky, and then swooped down to the ground.

A panicked shout came from the mouth of Naruto's shadow clone. Looking at the waves of sand rushing over like a tsunami, he forgot to resist for a moment, as if the soles of his feet were rooted and unable to move.

Boom!

The earth and the surrounding barrier walls were shaking violently.

The entire ground was covered with sand, and it was impossible to see what the original playing field looked like, forming a small desert.

There was a sound of brushing, and a black shadow jumped out from the sand. It was Naruto's extremely embarrassed figure, spitting sand from his mouth.

"It's really difficult."

Gaara frowned as he looked at Naruto coming out of the sand, who had not yet been defeated by the sea of ​​sand.

So, Gaara raised his arm, and a hand of sand appeared, grabbing Naruto.

After Naruto landed, he ran quickly to dodge the attack of the Hand of Sand.

"The art of multiple shadow clones!"

A large number of shadow clones appeared again, and Naruto's true body was also mixed into them. They began to scatter in all directions, leaving Gaara not knowing which one was the true body for a moment.

At this moment, a Naruto bit his finger and began to form hand seals, then pressed his hand seals towards the ground.

"Psychic art!"

boom!

After the white smoke dissipated, an aqua-blue toad covered with pimples appeared.

It was slightly larger than an adult. As soon as it appeared, it flapped its mouth and spat towards Gaara's position.

A water ball half a meter in diameter shot out from the toad's mouth like a cannonball, heading straight for Gaara.

boom!

The sand with consciousness quickly formed a shield wall to defend itself.

The water polo, which is also as heavy as steel, concentrates hard on the sand wall, directly breaking a big hole in it, and the water flow mixes with the sand and splashes.

Gaara was shocked and quickly backed away. He didn't expect that the psychic beast summoned by the other party would use such a powerful water escape and be able to directly penetrate the sand wall.

Snapped.

When he retreated and settled down, two hands suddenly emerged from under the sand and grabbed his ankles.

A head also popped up from the sand and said with a smile: "I've caught you now!"

Oops!

Gaara was secretly annoyed in his heart, and when he saw countless shadow clones of Naruto surrounding him, overwhelmingly swarming up, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

After forming seals with both hands, the sand on the ground began to roll like waves, interfering with the movements of these shadow clones.

"Succeeded!"

Naruto's angry voice came from behind, and Gaara turned around in surprise.

"Let you try the secret of Konoha's Ultimate Taijutsu taught to me by Mr. Kakashi - Thousand Years of Killing!"
