Chapter 127
The audience immediately erupted in thunderous applause and cheers, their voices soaring to the heavens. It was clear that Natsuki's stunning performance had thoroughly captivated them.
The shopkeeper once again shouted at the top of his lungs, "That's my future son-in-law! That's my son-in-law!"
This only made those around him even more jealous, and they felt like beating him up.
The Fire Daimyo looked at the Wind Daimyo's dark, foul expression and almost wanted to dance from smugness.
This time, they had truly stolen the show—it felt absolutely fantastic!
"Yay! Natsuki won!"
"Of course he did! Natsuki's so amazing!"
"Yeah, yeah! Natsuki even fought against Orochimaru—beating a mere Sand genin is nothing for him!"
Their friends were all excited, Rinya and Megumi wearing looks of pride, and Aoba even wiped a tear from the corner of his eye.
Kakashi nodded. "Well, it was expected."
Guy, however, looked a bit regretful. "What a shame. Natsuki didn't even use the Hachimon Tonkō (Eight Gates Release Technique). But I suppose the enemy wasn't strong enough to warrant it."
Tenten didn't say a word—she simply smiled at Natsuki. This was her boyfriend's moment to shine.
