71 Chapter 71: Four-Finger Hell Stab

Killer Bee = Killer B

The latter is the right way to write it apparently.

____________

"This girl..."

He could feel two of his teeth in his mouth.

Killer B looked at small Kunoichi in disbelief.

He couldn't believe those hands, which weren't even half the size of his, managed to muster that much force.

"Strong!"

Before the jinchuriki could ponder about it more, Hinata uttered a quiet battle cry and tried to go for a chop.

In a hurry, he raised his forearm to take the blow.

Boom!

But even so, the impact produced a gust of wind as the ground split apart rapidly forming a web-like pattern to etch itself on the playground.

Plop!

Omoi widened his eyes at the sight, ignoring his lollipop that had fallen onto the dirt.

"What!? That's like... outrageously strong... even if she's the undefeated school champion, there's no way that's normal!"

The many other spectators beside him looked terrified.

Hachiro gave a maniacal grin seeing B struggle to recover from the abrupt attack.

Hinata broke out with highspeed and disappeared, at a speed far beyond the eye of an average Jonin.

She reappeared on his left side like a phantom.

This time, Killer B didn't make any attempt to block the attack.

"Uh!?

Hinata frowned as her palm made contact with something huge and slimy.

It didn't take her long to identify it as an octopus leg and by putting 2 and 2 together, she figured out that this was the power of Gyuki, the Eight Tailed beast.

Suddenly, the leg which she assumed was solely a shield, writhed about and before stretching in her direction.

Making use of her basic techniques, she quickly used substitution while side stepping.

BOOM!

In her previous position lay splinters of wood, making it clear how close she was to getting crushed.

Perhaps, because of the tentacle remapping the playground, Genkei shouted.

"Lord B, maybe you should take it easier!?"

"Of course, not! I need to make sure I present a stage for her to show her capabilities. It's my duty as the examiner!"

Killer B didn't even glance at him and continued locking onto his opponent.

The observing shinobi felt speechless.

In the distance, Hinata could see Hachiro giving a thumbs up.

Mabui deciding that there was no need to continue this fight before the destruction affected the next series of tests.

"Hinata Raiden has proven with no doubt that she has the abilities of a genin. This fight is over!"

The goal of these small tests was to get the approval of an examiner. As such there was no need to continue the fight.

However–

Boom!!!

The violent lightning chakra hugging Hinata's slender body grew in quantity, causing her indigo hair to flap about wildly.

The many veteran shinobi including, the other examiners, the Raikage and Tutai looked at the young girl with a ghastly expression.

Hinata stretched four fingers on her right hand out and tucked in her thumb.

The lightning cloak that sporadically jumped about, condensed around her hand.

The Fourth Raikage shouted in alarm, "Wait, wait! That's..."

Tutai followed up, "That's Lord third's technique!"

Mabuyi: "Seriously, she managed to learn that in ten years..."

Suddenly, she realised what that meant.

Her tanned skin, blushed madly.

"Hey, Gyuki, is this as strong as the old man's?"

Killer B asked the eight tails cautiously.

However, the tailed beast didn't reply.

He felt as if he was stuck in that torment where he first tasted defeat.

Before that day, aside from the Sage of six paths and his older brother, he had no match. Not one at all.

"Four-Finger Hell Stab!"

Following the surge in chakra gathering around her body, her speed doubled and she rushed toward her opponent like a meteor.

She could no longer be seen by the average Jonin.

The octopus leg that had almost crushed her into smithereens swung towards her at maximum speed.

With a downward chop, Hinata divided the leg in two.

Understanding, that he could no longer hold back against his opponent.

Killer B drew out a sword before dashing forward to meet her hand.

Boom–

Seconds later, he was sent spinning through the air and into a nearby school building.

It was a strange scene resembling a cat launching a tiger into the sky.

Thanks to the speed at which, the jinchuriki slammed into the wall, countless cracks formed as it began to fall apart.

Hinata breathed heavily as the chakra around her dissipated

Killer Bee looked down.

Tchh–chah!

The saber, he pulled out in a hurry, had split in two.

Killer B "..." Why did I agree to this, again?

Because the jinchuriki hadn't used tailed beast chakra, blood was flowing out from his back.

"My mother!"

Atsui looked on as his chin dropped to the ground.

The expressions of everyone present was more or less, the same.

Suddenly, the pupils of Killer Bee shrunk.

Hinata cloaked herself in lightning chakra again, and got into the position for a nukite.

The only difference being she had three fingers instead of four.

Three-Finger Hell stab?

He thought to himself with worry, a technique like that could pose a threat to him with his current restrictions.

I can't use Tailed beast chakra or techniques like Lariot.

He pulled out another sword and channelled lightning chakra.

"All right,"

A hand took shape from no where and hit a pressure point on Hinata's hand.

"You passed. You'll need more training before you can safely use the Three-Finger Hell stab."

Hachiro gently tapped her on the nose as he smiled.

"Good job."

"Hey~"

Hinata gave a bright smile with a giggle.

"Huh..."

Killer B let out a sigh of relief.

He rapped to himself quietly as he got himself up.

"I rather my vanquished foes do the dance of defeat~ as I celebrate my win with my ice cold beats!"

The seventeen year old Izumi squeezed her thigh and muttered to herself,

"Wait, Hinata, won?"
