Naruto: No One Knows That I Can Use Wood Release!

Araki's actions exceeded everyone's expectations. The students in the class never imagined that the simulated duel would end in such a way.

Hyuga Sora was supposed to win...

Everyone knew that even before it started.

It could be said that it was a predetermined outcome.

However...

No one expected the process to turn out like this.

For a moment, the whole scene fell silent. Many people who wanted to see a spectacle were left dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

Among the crowd,

Uzumaki Kushina stared at Araki in a daze, her curiosity about his strength overwhelming. She had been looking forward to seeing how Araki would perform in the end, but suddenly she witnessed this simulated duel that didn't even take place.

Teacher Yinsui was one of the first to react. After all, he was a teacher at the Ninja School and a Chunin from the Hidden Leaf Village, so naturally, his reactions were quicker when dealing with unexpected situations.

"This kid..."

Teacher Yinsui shook his head helplessly. He had intended to give Araki some face by arranging a duel with Hyuga Sora, but he never expected Araki to choose to forfeit directly.

He had guessed the outcome but not the process.

...

Hyuga Sora was undoubtedly the most bewildered person in the entire scene. He had already prepared himself to teach Araki a lesson.

But...

He didn't even get a chance to throw a punch...

It was all over?!

Hyuga Sora suddenly felt a surge of frustration and hot blood trapped in his heart, unable to be released.

It felt as if he had struck a cotton ball with all his might.

No, even before he could clench his fist!

"Damn it!"

Hyuga Sora furrowed his brow tightly. In name, he had clearly won, but there was no joy of victory at all. Instead, it felt like he had been toyed with.

He wanted to show off in front of his classmates, but this time he didn't get the chance.

He wanted to take advantage of Araki's offense against Kushina and strike back at Araki to win Kushina's favor.

But he was never given the opportunity to perform.

Especially with his back turned to the students in the audience, he had no idea what kind of expressions each person had. He just had this momentary feeling of being like a clown.

Thinking of this...

Hyuga Sora felt an uncontrollable anger surging in his heart.

It was supposed to be his moment to teach Araki a lesson, but Araki cleverly defused the situation, making him feel like he had lost face. Instantly, his blood boiled, and he turned angrily to glare at Araki's back.

Suddenly...

Hyuga Sora took a step forward, swiftly rushing toward Araki.

His right hand swung up, clenched into a fist, aiming directly for the back of Araki's head, with great force.

"Hoo..."

The students at the scene widened their eyes and involuntarily let out exclamations upon witnessing this situation.

It all happened so suddenly.

So much so that the students couldn't react in time.

Their eyes caught up.

But their thoughts lagged behind.

They could only witness the event unfolding before their eyes.

They watched helplessly as Hyuga Sora threw a punch at the back of Araki's head.

"Hmm?"

At that moment, Teacher Yinsui furrowed his brow tightly, his face turning unpleasant. He never expected that someone would dare to make such a move right in front of him, completely disregarding the rules of the simulated duel.

Swish!

Teacher Yinsui's figure flashed, causing a sound of breaking air.

In just an instant, Teacher Yinsui appeared behind Araki.

His raised left hand tightly grabbed Hyuga Sora's wrist, firmly restraining him and preventing any further actions.

"Hyuga Sora, what are you doing? The simulated duel has already ended, and you dare to sneak attack your classmate?!"

Teacher Yinsui sternly reprimanded.

He had been teaching at the ninja school for many years and had never encountered such a phenomenon before.

It made him extremely angry!

If this couldn't be dealt with seriously, then the rules of the simulated duel would become meaningless. In the future, more people might engage in such rule-breaking actions.

Continuing to attack after the simulated duel had ended was a violation of the rules, especially launching a surprise attack without the other party's knowledge.

"The simulated duel hasn't ended; I performed the Seal of Confrontation!"

Hyuga Sora stubbornly declared.

His hand was already firmly grasped, and he couldn't make any further movements. Moreover, he knew that after Teacher Yinsui intervened, there was no possibility of continuing to attack Araki.

In the end, he couldn't strike Araki, and Hyuga Sora felt a sense of regret in his heart.

"You've already performed the Seal of Reconciliation!"

Teacher Yinsui glared at Hyuga Sora with anger. He liked this child on ordinary days, but what he had just done made him very angry.

Not only that, but from Hyuga Sora's defense, it was clear that he didn't realize his mistake and was trying to justify himself, which was an extremely serious matter.

"I didn't initiate the seal..."

Hyuga Sora's voice became much softer. He understood the reasoning behind it and weakened his momentum under the furious gaze of Teacher Yinsui.

"Regardless, Araki has already admitted defeat, and you have performed the Seal of Reconciliation as the winner. You should not have behaved in that manner. I want you to apologize to Araki right now!"

Teacher Yinsui said coldly, his eyes still filled with anger as he stared at Hyuga Sora.

He had to set an example today.

Otherwise, in future simulated duels, he would have to worry about students attacking each other. Not only would it be difficult to discipline them, but it would also be a great harm to the spirit of the shinobi way.

"I didn't even manage to hit him..." Hyuga Sora muttered under his breath, feeling extremely reluctant.

"Do you want me to say it again?"

Teacher Yinsui's tone was extremely icy, coupled with his gaze that seemed as if he could kill, exerting a strong pressure on Hyuga Sora.

"I understand..."

Hyuga Sora's mouth twitched harshly. He knew that if he didn't apologize, the situation wouldn't end well. He didn't dare to confront Teacher Yinsui too much.

Helplessly, he pulled his arm out from Teacher Yinsui's relaxed grip, took a step forward, and walked towards Araki, who had turned around but showed no change in expression.

Hmph!

Ignorance knows no fear!

This guy probably has no idea what just happened!

However...

Hyuga Sora felt the gazes of the surrounding students, and he became even more displeased.

He was supposed to be the protagonist today.

Yet he had a feeling of becoming a clown.

And the root of all this...

was this classmate named Araki.
