Chapter 14: Return To The Grind 5

Moments later, Daiki and Sasuke faced off against each other, stood thirty feet apart in the middle of the training ground.

Another smirk spread across Sasuke's face as Daiki slid into the opening stance of the Academy Style taijutsu.

Daiki smirked right back.

"...Alright, let's keep this clean okay guys? Whoever can pin the other and keep them immobile, wins." Sakura hesitantly addressed.

"Don't worry Sakura, this won't take long." Sasuke assured her, Sharingan eyes locked onto his opponent.

"He's right," Daiki agreed, "I'm about to go all Tobirama on his ass and make Konoha great again."

"Who the hell is Tobirama?" Naruto, arms crossed behind his head squinted his eyes in confusion.

Sakura gave him an odd look, but sighed and nodded, "Alright then," the pink haired kunoichi conceded, "Begin!" she announced.

As soon as she said so, Sasuke exploded forward, rushing towards Daiki at a blinding pace, covering the distance in mere moments.

Daiki remained in placing, waiting for him to come, 'He's faster.' he held off clicking his tongue.

Sasuke flicked his hand suddenly, and shuriken appeared, free of them blitzing through the tiny gap in the air between them.

They were so sudden, Daiki didn't have time to think up a counter, leaving them to stab into his shoulders and the middle of his chest. The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

He puffed into smoke, a log replacing his previous position with the three shuriken embedded into it.

"Hmph!" Sasuke whipped his foot back, bleeding off his momentum and spinning backwards a half a foot, just in time to avoid a rising knee strike aimed at his kidneys.

Daiki's back to him now, Sasuke completed his spin and launched a roundhouse straight up at the other genin's side.

Sasuke got a real first hand view of what it was like to be a spinning top, his vision blurring even with the Sharingan active as Daiki whipped them around and slammed him hard into the ground below as their air time came to an end.

The breath was knocked out of Sasuke as his back met the ground and cratered it inwards, but he didn't have much time to counter.

Daiki hadn't let go of his foot even after slamming him down into the dirt, and bodily hauled the pale skinned boy up out of the small crater his back had made in it.

Sasuke didn't bother trying to escape Daiki's grip, instead, lashing out with his free leg again to kick him under the junction of his arm, right in the in the armpit, while at the same time, running through a few hand seals.

"Gah!" Daiki grimaced, forced to let go of his fellow genin before he could slam him again, and his eyes widened as he noticed the boy, as he fell below him.

His hands were in the tiger seal, and he was taking a deep breath.

Time slowed down for Daiki.

And resumed just as quickly.

A snarl leaving his lips and baring his teeth, the tan skin boy thrust out his palm, catching Sasuke in the lower stomach, "Force Palm Jutsu!" he roared, triggering the seal on his palm.

The good thing about his little seal, was that it could be activated pretty much instantly.

Sasuke gagged as once more a corona of pure force erupted from Daiki's palm, this time, at point blank range.

He was sent soaring back through the air, flipping ass over head multiple times, before slamming into the ground thirty feet away.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura's scream of worry rang in Daiki's ears, but it felt muted, as if she was miles away, all of his attention was focused on the older boy laying first first down in the dirt.

If this were an enemy, he wouldn't even give them a chance to get up, this would be the perfect chance to use his one and only lightning style ninjutsu and finish him off.

But, this was just a spar in the end, to test himself.
