Chapter 28 - End Of Second Test
[Izumi's PoV]
'Haah, how should I confess to Akihiko?' I thought as I dodged a strike from the genin in front of me. I sent chakra to my eyes as my eyes changed to three-tomoe sharingan. Even though I had Mangekyo Sharingan, I don't need it against them. I looked at the genin in front of me in the eyes and casted a genjutsu on him.
The genjutsu makes him think that I am the ally and his teammate is the enemy. His teammate who was preparing to use a jutsu, was surprised to see that his own teammate is trying to attack him.
He dodged the attacks but when I saw a small opening, I immediately dashed through and kicked him in the nuts.
"AGHHHHHHHH!" He yelled as foams came out of his mouth.
His teammate even came to give me a fist bump but I just kicked him in the nuts too. I turned around to see Kagami losing slightly against the genin.
I thought 'Can't you even handle one genin?' as I dashed towards the enemy and also kicked him in the nuts.
*Shiver*
Kagami shivered when he saw me kick them in the nuts. I saw it and asked,
"What? Isn't it the fastest way to knock a male out?"

[Akihiko PoV]
'Oooooooh, that gotta hurt.' I thought as I Izumi kick the three cannon fodders' nuts.
"Izumi, nice kick! Are you guys ok?" I yelled as I walked towards them.
"Y-yea, thanks." Izumi currently had a flowery aura around her.
"Thank you for worrying about me, but I'm fine." Kagami replied.
"I was worried about deez nuts on your chin." Akihiko quickly replied.
"Huh?" Kagami looked down at his chin but saw nothing so he laughed and said," Haha, nice one."
"Let's go find more teams." Kagami said as he prepared to run.
"Why don't we just call them here?" I said as I took out a fuinjutsu paper and ink from my pouch. Why would I take them from my Inventory, it would be sucipis-, sushipi- , very sus.
I quickly drew my personally created seal, which I named the, "Loud Explosion with Small Firework Seal". I know, the name sounded very cool right?
I put it a bit far away from us and quickly threw gang sign- I mean hand signs. I had the "snake" hand sign and muttered "Katsu".
*Boooooooom*
Izumi and Kagami were surprised by how loud the sound was, although all that came out from the seal was a small firework that exploded in the sky.
"Wow, that's beautiful." Izumi said as she looked up at the firework.
While they were admiring the firework, the other teams who heard this sound looked in the direction to see a firework in the sky.
At that moment, they all thought, 'Which stupid idiot decided to show their location?'
Teams who were close to Akihiko's trio quickly dashed towards the sound of the explosion.
-----
After around 5 minutes, 3 genin teams wearing Suna headbands arrived. They looked like they knew each other.
When they saw Akihiko and his group, they thought that it was just an easy win as they had the number advantage.
They slowly walked towards Akihiko, Izumi and Kagami.
"Just surrender, you are already outnumbered."
Akihiko just closed his eyes for a few seconds. The genin teams thought that they should attack now.
They dashed towards Kagami as he looked like the weakest link of the team which is actually true but what they didn't expect was to see Akihiko blocking their way.
The cannon fodder at the front just sneered and tried to kick Akihiko in the face but Akihiko just dodged the kick and grabbed his legs, using the momentum to throw him against his own teammates.
Akihiko then dashed forward and kicked a cannon fodder's chin, another's neck. And that's one team down.
The two other teams became alerted and threw shurikens at Akihiko, forgetting that Izumi and Kagami was still there.
Akihiko just deflected all the shurikens just by throwing his own kunai causing all the shurikens to riochet against each other. The genins were surprised to see this, as they have never seen something like this before.
When they were distracted, a suna genin with pineapple hair got grabbed by the leg and Akihiko started to spin like a top. All the other genins were hit as Akihiko used the pineapple hair as a weapon and smashed all the other genins.
"Phew. That was quite difficult." Akihiko said although he didn't even have a drop of sweat.
Izumi and Kagami just watched from the sidelines. Akihiko then asked Izumi the question he had been thinking for a while,
"Hey, Izumi, how do the proctors know about the number of teams left."
"I-I also don't know. Maybe they have someone following us?"
Akihiko just nodded and guessed about how many teams would be left,
'We defeated 5 teams and there were 16 teams at the start so there will be a total of 11 teams left altogether. Some teams might already be down, so I guess currently, there would be around 7 or 8 teams left?'

[20 minutes later]
We have been waiting at the same place for a long time and we are definitely getting thirsty as the proctor didn't give us any water or food. I took a bottle of water from my inventory when Izumi and Kagami were looking away so I just drank a sip before putting it back in quickly.
'Huh? Where are the other teams? Why aren't they comingggggg. When I go back to Konoha, I guess I will donate money to the orphanage. They took care of me nicely after all.' I thought in my mind as I just laid on the ground.
We were then surprised by the sound that came next,
"THIS IS THE END OF THE SECOND TEST! EVERYONE, THE ONES WHO PASSED, PLEASE FOLLOW THE CHUNIN WHO WILL LEAD YOU BACK TO THE HALL!"
"Huh?! The test is already finished?" Kagami asked as he was not expecting for the test to end so suddenly. He didn't even get to fight much but he was happy that he passed the second test.
Soon after that, a chunin arrived at the place where Akihiko, Izumi and Kagami was.
"Follow me." The chunin didn't say any other words after that.
"How about them?" Izumi asked as she pointed at the fainted genins.
"Someone will come and carry them later. Let's go."
Akihiko just nodded and the trio followed the chunin.
After a few minutes of dashing, they arrived back at the hall where they saw 3 other teams.
There was a team from Sunagakure, one from Kirigakure and another from Kumoagkure.
As the proctor saw Akihiko's team arrive, he immediately started,
"Congratulations for passing the second test. For the third test, there will be a tournament with one "winner" on top. You have an entire week until the third test. I wish you luck."
After the proctor left, the other teams were checking each other out, trying to estimate their strength. Akihiko just simply left the hall with Izumi and Kagami following him.
When they went outside, Kagami just said goodbye to Akihiko and Izumi as he went out to eat some food.
Akihiko and Izumi walked together towards a park and sat on a bench as they fell into silence.
"Izumi, I have something to tell you." "Akihiko, I have something to tell you."
Both of them spoke at the same time making it a bit awkward so they tried to solve the situation.
"You can talk first." "You can talk first."
They looked at each other awkwardly.
"I will say it first then." Akihiko didn't want to lose the sharingan as a reward so he decided to confess first.
"Izumi, I-"
