Naruto - The Wind Calamity

Chapter 94 : The Opening Fight

As soon as he said it, Shin grabbed his shurikens. However, even before he could throw them, a Wind Explosion jutsu was coming at him!

He immediately ran backwards and to the right, dodging the explosion.

Fujin noticed him moving and thought, 'Too slow.' He flickered to where Shin was dodging and threw 2 Wind Explosion spheres at him.

Shin was moving towards the Wind explosion spheres when he noticed them. He tried dodging again, but the spheres exploded. He avoided most of the winds, but a few still hit him. A few cuts appeared on his left hand and leg.

The crowd didn't expect the fight to be so intense from the start. They began cheering loudly!

Fujin was planning to keep his attack going, when he noticed that Shin made a few hand signs and his chakra suddenly spiked, 'Hmm, which jutsu? Oh well, let's test him out.'

Fujin created a big Wind Explosion jutsu and threw it at him. If Shin was using a jutsu that needed some time to launch, this could defeat him.

However, huge Ice spikes immediately began appearing around him. Some were big enough to be called spears. Shin yelled, "Ice Hell!!"

Immediately, all Ice spikes got launched at a very fast speed! Some pierced through the Wind Explosion sphere, dispersing it. Shin smirked when he saw the shock on Fujin's face! At the next moment, 4 spikes hit Fujin. Shin was about to celebrate when Fujin dispersed into the winds! He was shocked, 'Wind Clone? When?'

The reason Fujin made a giant Wind Explosion sphere was so that he could hide behind it. When Shin couldn't see him, he created a Wind clone and escaped underground.

Before Shin could figure out when Fujin created a Wind clone, he felt something under him. He immediately jumped backwards. Just after he jumped, Fujin's hands popped out of the ground trying to catch his legs.

Fujin came out of the ground as Shin landed at some distance. Fujin smiled and said, "That was a strong jutsu. I am impressed."

Shin was breathing heavily. This was a rank B jutsu from his clan. It used more than half of his chakra.

When Fujin exited the ground, Mieko and Hoka suddenly snorted. Yumi became worried.

The crowd was shocked at this jutsu. Most hadn't ever seen any Ice jutsu. The ice spikes were embedded into the stadium walls. The civilians, and even some ninjas, breathed in relief that the spikes weren't aimed higher.

Hiruzen wondered, 'Should I arrange for barriers? Genins aren't supposed to use B rank jutsus.'

Fujin didn't allow Shin to catch his breath, and once again began attacking with Wind Explosion jutsus from a close distance. Shin dodged desperately while using Water Wall jutsu to defend himself and attempting to create some distance from Fujin. 

Such an exchange went on for the next 4-5 minutes. Shin had even more wounds and was breathing even more heavily. Finally, he managed to get away from Fujin. He made a few quick hand signs.

Fujin too created a few hand signs. 2 Wind Wolves appeared next to him and charged at Shin. Fujin waited, to see what jutsu Shin was about to use.

'Ice Dragon Jutsu'

Soon, an Ice Dragon started forming in front of Shin. It began to move towards the Wind Wolves and Fujin. Fujin thought, 'Ice Dragon? Looks cool. But he looks to be devoid of chakra.'

Fujin controlled the Wolves to move away from the dragon and then attack Shin from opposite directions. Shin ignored them and kept his focus on Fujin. Suddenly, Ice Dragon's speed increased and it rushed towards Fujin. At the same time, Shin dropped to his knees, as he was very exhausted.
