Although it had been several years, Sasuke still remembered what Itachi once said about this guy in front of him.

'Hmph'

Since it was impossible to defeat Itachi now, he decided to first defeat Colt, who he recognized as a rival, to prove that he was completely different than him!

Colt shrugged and walked slowly to the ring.

At Iruka's request, the two first formed a seal of opposition.

Beating children or something... he liked it the most.

"Come on, Colt! Defeat that arrogant Sasuke!" Naruto cheered loudly, even more excited than the combatants themselves.

"Shut up, you idiot! Sasuke, you can do it!" Sakura was so angry at Naruto that she momentarily forgot about her own match loss. She then cheered for Sasuke with a fervent expression, her face changing so quickly it left Naruto stunned.

"Shut up, you both are so noisy!"

Sasuke frowned at first, scolding Naruto and Sakura in displeasure, and then looked at Colt.

The latter was taking a fighting stance with both hands raised.

"You go first. If I attack, you won't be able to take a single move."

The arrogance of Sasuke's words ushered in the screams of the little girls around them.

"What? Colt won't lose to him!" Ino complained to Hinata in dissatisfaction, but she knew that Colt's strength was definitely not as ordinary as he usually showed.

Hinata also firmly agreed. How could Colt, such a hardworking and talented person, lose to a fellow ninja student?

Not even if he was against the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan would he lose.

'I believe in you, Colt-kun'

Furthermore, with her Byakugan, she knew Colt's hidden abilities better than Ino.

In the ring, Colt grimaced at Sasuke's arrogance. Do these Uchiha have to boast before every fight to psych out their opponents? Those with real strength were called confident, and those like Sasuke were just foolish.

'Tsk'

The sky was clear, the rain had stopped, and Sasuke felt confident once again.

In the original story, every time Sasuke gained strength, he had to be educated.

'Heh'

When he first awakened his Sharingan with one Tomoe in the Land of Waves and took part in the exam, he was educated by Rock Lee who competed against him.

Then, after learning Chidori, he was taught a lesson by Gaara as he fought against him.

Later, even after awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, he was humbled by Killer Bee almost instantly, and then beaten by a Kage in the same time frame.

Colt had to inherit such a good tradition.

As soon as his right hand was lifted, three shuriken were thrown out.

Sasuke sneered.

'Throwing such weak shuriken? Itachi, is this the person you were so optimistic about? Just laughable!'

Pulling out a kunai, he easily blocked the shurikens and rushed towards Colt, who was standing dumbfounded at how casually he stopped the attack.

Sasuke suddenly had no interest in drawing the fight out and wanted a quick resolution.

This level was not worthy just yet to be his opponent.

Holding the kunai in his right hand, Sasuke stabbed straight out. With his speed, Colt couldn't react to this blow at all.

Just when Sasuke thought victory was in his hands, Colt sidestepped the kunai easily and grabbed his wrist precisely.

Raising his knee, he slammed it into Sasuke's chest.

Sasuke, who had been moving with too much force, couldn't control his body at all and could only twist awkwardly, avoiding a critical hit.

"Ugh!"

Sasuke was knocked back, his breathing momentarily halted, and he fell to the ground in embarrassment.

"Sasuke, you can't do this either; your speed is too slow."

Colt returned to his original standing position and looked at Sasuke mockingly.

"Bastard!"

Sasuke rushed up again, this time, even though a bit angered, he was much more cautious.

Colt played along, and their fists crossed, making a thumping sound.

Sasuke, after all, had the Uchiha clan's formidable physique, and his burst of attacks looked impressive.

The students in the audience were amazed. These two were so powerful; compared to them, their own training was like child's play.

"Come on, Colt!"

"Go, Sasuke!"

The girls in the class were divided into two factions, cheering for their respective idols. Shikamaru's scalp was numb-these girls were terrifying.

The scene seemed evenly matched, with Sasuke even appearing to be on the offensive. But only Sasuke knew how uncomfortable he was.

No matter what moves he used, Colt blocked them precisely. Sasuke's physical abilities and reaction speed were completely outmatched by Colt's.

Dodging Sasuke's whip-like kick, Colt countered and kicked Sasuke away again.

This time, Sasuke didn't rush up like before. He realized that physical skills alone were no match for Colt.

"If that's the case, let's use this move to decide the winner!" Sasuke's eyes narrowed as he started forming hand seals.

"Not good!" Iruka, being a Chūnin, could tell at a glance that Sasuke was about to use a Fire Style jutsu. This was well beyond the realm of the current students' abilities. He focused intently, ready to rescue Colt if needed.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!" A fiery fireball spewed out of Sasuke's mouth at the end of the seals, and rapidly expanded to the size of a man.

"Woah!"

The onlooking students exclaimed; this was the first time Ninjutsu had appeared today.

Colt also formed his own hand seals.

"Wind Style: Gale Palm!" A hurricane flew out of his hand, directly blowing the fireball away.

The gust then hit Sasuke, who was stunned and unable to react. The strong wind knocked him flying until he fell to the ground, and Colt's figure appeared above him, pointing a kunai at his

throat.

"The battle is over. The winner: Kamiyo Colt!"

"Form the Seal of Reconciliation!"

Iruka hurriedly announced the results of the competition. To be honest, he was a little

surprised that Colt was so strong.

Sasuke was also dumbfounded until he formed the Seal of Reconciliation with Colt.

Had he really lost like that? After the Uchiha massacre, Sasuke had only one goal: to kill the

man responsible.

He trained hard every day, yet he couldn't even beat Colt.

For a moment, Sasuke fell into deep self-doubt.

"Let me help you heal," Colt said with a smile, extending his hand and pressing it on Sasuke's

wound from the strong wind and fall. After waiting for so long, he finally got the chance to

harvest some ignorant sheep.

"Kamiyo Colt, I will definitely beat you the next time!" Although Sasuke loved to act superior,

his competitive spirit was still indomitable. After recovering, he immediately issued a

challenge.

"No problem. You are welcome to challenge me at any time," Colt replied.

However, inwardly he was annoyed.

And that was because he had heard the system's prompt tone, so he was a little dissatisfied.

'I got just some points and base stats from healing him? What about Indra's Chakra?'
