In Naruto: Reborn With Talent

Chapter 459 Ch459. Teresa Vs...



Samui had no idea how she got into this kind of situation but right now, she stood in the decimated Konoha arena, standing opposite Teresa who was happily swinging her massive Claymore with one arm, causing a wry smile to appear on Samui's face as she readied herself for the fight.

"Why am I doing this again?" A grumpy voice grumbled next to Samui, making her even more upset.

Fighting Teresa was one thing. The thought that the fight will be two versus one was another. It was simply rubbing Samui the wrong way.

Kurotsuchi huffily stood with her arms crossed on her chest as she glared at Teresa. Unlike Samui who was given a choice, she had to participate because Rei ordered her.

'To not make it too easy on Teresa.' He said.

Pfft, as if some malnourished airhead could defeat her! Even in one-on-one Kurotsuchi doubted she would lose so having to double-tag the thin blonde made her feel distasteful.

When she complained about this to Rei, he only laughed out loud at her and asked her if she was a samurai or a ninja. the bastard!

Ninjas could have honor too!

But Kurotsuchi quickly realized she would not get out of this fight so she decided to show Rei it was a bad idea by beating Teresa black and blue by herself. Who cared about some Kumo bitch with tits larger than the faces of past Hokages on the Hokage monument anyway?

Just as the match was about to start, "Let's work together." Samui said, deciding not to underestimate Teresa. If her new teacher's lover said the girl could handle her and Kurotsuchi, Samui was not about to disregard that warning. It was better to keep a cold head and consider the possibilities...

"Pfft. Bullshit." Kurotsuchi hot-headedly exclaimed, glaring at Teresa while her body language showed she had no inclination of working together with Samui at all.

Unfortunately, Samui didn't get more time to persuade her. She had spent the pre-fight preparation time observing her opponent rather than trying to reason with Kurotsuchi and only now did she realize it might have been a mistake.

A gong reverberated through the arena, signaling the start of the match and Kurotsuchi instantly jumped into the air, her hands weaving seals before they quickly relocated toward her mouth as she exclaimed, "Lava Release: Volcanic Flow!"

From her mouth, she spat a large amount of lava, enough to flood the entire bottom of the arena in it. The lava impacted the ground in waves, advancing like Tsunami toward Teresa who simply turned around and ran towards a wall.

By the time the lava covered the entire surface of the arena, creating a small lake of itself, Teresa was horizontally perched in the middle of the arena's wall. While she could not use chakra because of her half-Yoma status, Rei spent a lot of time teaching her how to use rudimentary ninja techniques with her yoki.

Samui was on the wall on the other side of the arena, staring with obvious annoyance at the back of Kurotsuchi's head.

The bitch almost buried her in lava there!

Samui was right next to Kurotsuchi so she was way closer to the initial impact zone than Teresa. She almost didn't have enough time to react. It made her wonder if Kurotsuchi wanted to really get Teresa out of commission or if the attack was meant to get herself out of the way.

But Kurotsuchi was not done yet.

Spinning in mid-air, she made her back face the ground while her front was turned towards the sky as she slowly started to fall down. Her hands once again started to weave hand signs, making both Teresa and Samui widen their eyes as they realized what the crazy bitch wanted to do...

"Lava Release: Quicklime Congealing Technique!"

Kurotsuchi spat a huge amount of quicklime into the air above the arena... and gravity did the rest as the quicklime started falling down, making a shadow befall its whole premises.

There was enough quicklime to cover the whole arena so both Samui and Teresa were sandwiched between the ground covered in liquid lava and the falling quicklime from the sky, giving them no safe spot inside of the arena.

Kurotsuchi used the terrain to her utmost advantage and with a mocking laugh, she used the Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique to burrow herself inside her lava just as she landed on the ground. This way, she will evade the quicklime and be prepared to spring forth and continue her offensive the second her attack impacts her opponents...er, opponent.

Samui's eyes grew dull and her expression darkened as she watched the incoming heavy and thick quicklime that was gaining falling momentum the closer it got to the ground.

Who would have thought the Iwa bitch would possess brains sufficient to make a strategy like this?

Frowning, Samui unsheathed her sword and fed it lightning chakra as she prepared to slash her way through the quicklime. She... refused to go down so easily.

On the other side of the arena, Teresa happily smiled, squeezing the hilt of her Claymore, causing the blade to be covered by crimson yoki full of malevolence as her silver eyes shined and curiously roamed over the falling substance above her head. Suddenly, her gaze stopped on a particular place and her head tilted a bit, her smile turning serene.

"So that's the weak spot." She slightly nodded to herself and crouched down.

With one mighty leap, Teresa closed the distance between her and the falling quicklime... her sword blurring in insanely swift movements as the quicklime in the weak spot was obliterated to fine powder by hundreds of slashes just enough for a petite person like her to pass through, and Teresa's leap continued unimpeded.

The quicklime landed on the lava, mixing with it and creating a hissing sound as the two together started to harden, quickly creating new ground just before Teresa's body reached it and landed in a crouch before nonchalantly standing up as if she just didn't evade an attack that would have been certain death to most chunins.

By now, Teresa's expression lost all traces of childishness and only serenity with a calm smile was left as her battle instincts finally kicked in. This was almost instinctual to her even though she barely recollected her past. She did not try to do this. It just felt right.

With interest barely shining through her silvery eyes, Teresa watched as Samui also landed opposite her, the blade in her hands crackling with lightning and her clothes covered in a bit of quicklime... which obviously made the Kumo woman very annoyed if the way her eye was twitching was anything to go by.

Samui suddenly spun on her heel and raised her sword... and for anybody facing her in a fight that would have been a cue to tense and raise their guard, but Teresa just leaned back and leisurely watched, sensing that there was no danger directed at her.

Samui disappeared from her spot in a lightning shunshin, instantly appearing in a different place in the arena as she stuck her blade into it up to its hilt, channeling a lot of electricity through it so the blade went through the hardened quicklime and lava as if they were butter.

Her actions made sense only when a moment later, Kurotsuchi jumped out of the ground just a few inches away from the spot where Samui buried her sword, snarling and glaring at the expressionless Kumo woman.

Kurotsuchi didn't get cut. She only got a few hundred volts through her body because of that cow's lightning release and it hurt like a bitch.

"What are you doing, you Kumo cow!? I am not your opponent!" Kurotsuchi exclaimed as she slid on the ground, getting a bit of distance between herself and Samui.

"Then why the fuck did you try to kill me, you Iwa dumbass? Did all that lava melt your brain?" Samui coldly sneered, her tone remaining flat but her words were quite spicy.

"Oh, you are on." Kurotsuchi growled and took out two kunais before rushing at Samui.

The two women started fighting with their weapons, throwing small Jutsus at each other with the aim to disable and outright cripple the other... all the while Teresa just dumbly stood in her spot, blinking in confusion as she watched the two women having fun.

Without her.

'Weren't they supposed to play with me? Why are they ignoring me now?' Teresa inwardly pouted, the only sign on her serene expression of her worsening mood was her silvery eyes gaining a golden hue as they narrowed and malevolent intent started leaking all around, freezing both Samui and Kurotsuchi in their places as they shakily turned toward Teresa who was still donning her serene smile. But now it seemed a bit too sweet to be real.

'They are bad girls and bad girls gotta be punished.' Teresa nodded to herself with a small blush, remembering as Rei spanked her when she didn't behave herself...
