Chapter 10: Aizen's Tricks

"How did you manage to do this?" Kiba asked, eyes wide open. "Even if just a bit, I can recognize my scent on you?!"

"Hahaha, for now, it's a secret." I gave a wild smile and said somewhat mischievously, "Now, get ready or you'll end up getting beaten up by your own appearance."

Kiba became serious. "Akamaru!"

"Woof!"

Without Kiba asking, Akamaru gathered chakra and soon transformed into Kiba's appearance.

If my transformation reached about 70%, Akamaru's was around 35% now. However, his smell was almost the same as Kiba's.

Even though I didn't have the same nose as them, I could still sense the similar smell in both of them.

Looking at the 'Kibas,' my wild smile intensified as I moved.

Due to not having enough control, when exerting force on my supporting foot, I ended up creating a hole with the shape of my foot with my momentum.

Soon, I was halfway there and saw Kiba and Akamaru making hand seals, then they got into an attacking position by placing their hands on the ground, looking a bit fierce, but not too much.

However, when they moved, they were almost as fast as me.

The first to reach me was Kiba with his elbow, aiming at my chest.

Using my right hand, I received the attack, cushioning it by leaning back slightly, then pushed down, gaining momentum to rise, escaping from Akamaru's attack, who tried to attack me with claw-like hands.

In the air, I spun and, with the momentum of the spin, used my foot to kick Akamaru away and, with the other foot, landed on Kiba's head, propelling myself into the air again. As I spun again, I made a hand seal and transformed into Akamaru.

As I began to fall, perhaps by reflex, Kiba, who was lying on the ground, stood up and prepared to receive me. However, I transformed back into his appearance and, in a crouched position with speed in my favor, kicked his chest.

"Bang!"

The impact was like a horse's kick, sending him flying, going in the same direction as Akamaru, who had already recovered and was running towards me, but was interrupted when Kiba collided with him.

"Again." I landed on the ground, looking at the two with a calm smile.

Kiba and Akamaru got up with difficulty.

Groaning in frustration, I saw Kiba look at me with a frustrated expression.

"I won't lose next time!" He promised, turning to Akamaru.

"I hope not." I said with a calm smile.

"Akamaru, cancel your transformation and try to transform again!" Kiba said, then gritted his teeth as he said my name. "Aizen..."

Akamaru, now with 35% similarity to Kiba, looked at him and nodded, then returned to the appearance of a puppy. Concentrating even more chakra, Akamaru tried to transform.

I remained calm as I waited. My purpose was not to win but to help Kiba and also improve myself in the process.

The fact that I managed to deceive Kiba by transforming into Akamaru made my ideas expand. At the same time, I whispered very softly, "Book." I went to the missions page and accepted Kiba's mission.

From his ninja bag, I saw Kiba take out something purple.

'Ohh, trying to use smoke screen with me?' I chuckled in my mind.

Canceling my transformation, I felt Kiba's presence running towards me without waiting for Akamaru.

Soon, I was surrounded by the smoke screen. Of course, I could have avoided it, but I didn't want to.

Using the Speed Style, I reached Akamaru and took some of his fur, sniffed it well, and tried to assimilate it as much as possible with my genjutsu. Soon, I transformed into Kiba.

Akamaru, who had distanced himself from me after having his fur stolen, transformed into Kiba, or at least I think so, since I could sense with my senses that his appearance had changed in the middle of the smoke.

But I didn't worry about it. Using my speed, I distanced myself from Akamaru and approached Kiba.

"Akamaru, coordinate with me," Kiba said as he felt my approach.

A smile appeared on my face when I heard that. I continued to approach, and when I was very close, I delivered a hook with my right hand right to his stomach.

"Aizen?" Kiba doubled over as transparent liquid came out of his mouth.

His voice sounded extremely disbelieving. It seemed he could swear that it was Akamaru who approached him, not me.

"Hahaha." I laughed, then distanced myself and went to where I sensed Akamaru's presence.

I decided to cancel my transformation and metamorphose again, this time focusing mainly on Kiba's characteristic smell, which, although little, was still different from Akamaru's.

Until I was five meters away from Akamaru, he didn't seem to notice that I wasn't Kiba, or so I thought.

Akamaru was smarter than Kiba and attacked with his chakra-surrounded claws in my direction. However, he was a bit slow, and I spun on one foot with the other extended like a clamp. My foot hit Akamaru's stomach hard, but I didn't use too much force for fear of hurting more than necessary.

"Woof!"

A pained bark escaped from Akamaru's mouth.

"Akamaru!"

In the distance, I heard Kiba's cry.

"Kiba, it was a mistake to use that smoke screen against me," I said in his voice, sounding a bit arrogant on purpose. "It wasn't much different from self-mutilation. Although I understand why you did it, you should think better about who your opponent is."

Groaning in frustration, I heard him say, "Turning into me and, because of the smoke, it became harder for me to tell if you are you or Akamaru."

"Correct," I said. "For now, let's continue until the smoke clears. Take this as a lesson."

"Urghh!"

I heard his groan.

I continued to alternate between attacking Akamaru and Kiba separately, not letting them regroup.

As I told him, this would serve as a lesson. If the enemy can separate them, it will be difficult for them to coordinate with each other. Being aware of this could help them improve.

A few minutes later, Kiba and Akamaru were covered in bruises and completely covered in dust.
