Hayate’s look switched between Lee and a very persuasive girl. Technically, the match didn''t end yet, but it was as good as over. Everyone knew that. He didn''t need to prolong Lee’s agony. The boy required medical attention, and he required it immediately.
Hayate cleared his throat, “Ahem, the winner of the match is ...”
“No! Aargh, I haven’t lost! Aargh, the match isn’t over yet!” A weak voice interrupted Hayate, the voice of an unbroken iron will manifest, the voice of a boy not willing to give up cost no matter the cost.
Asami’s eyes went wide. Lee stood. With the force of sheer willpower alone, he stood. Herst attacked should have permanently disabled him, but that was not the case. He fought on.How? How was he still standing? Her kunaipierced his legs.
Asami clenched her fist. Stupid ninjaand their superhuman resilience. Terribly annoying.
Lee could barely stand, not to mention fight. She robbed him of his prized mobility. Running was difficult with two kunai struck through your legs.And yet,Lee refused to see reason. He refused to ept defeat until the bitter end.
Was she truly forced to kill him? A genin, a problem. No genin, no problem. A single kunai was everything she needed.Killing him? Was that the solution?
Asami walked up to Lee, offering him a smile, staring right into his eyes. Her eyes glimmered a shade purple, suffocating any opposition, consuming all his remaining strength. Deeper and deeper, his mind fell into the dark abyss of unconsciousness. Lifeless shadows devoured him. “Lee, you are wrong ... The match is over ... And now sleep and sweet dreams~. You must be tired~.” Her soft, melodic voice whispered in his ears, urging him to sleep as her genjutsu slowly took effect. All his pain, all his force, vanished. Slowly, his world turned ck.
Her finger tipped Lee''s forehead, using a minuscule amount of force. Lee fell. His weakened body copsed without resistance.“Lee, let me give you onst piece of advice. You have potential, but youck experience. I hope this defeat will teach you a lesson.Remember my words, because future enemies neither will showmercy,nor will they hesitate. A good ninjaknowswhen a battle is lost, Lee. They livetofight another day.”

Hidden among the audience, Orochimaru licked his lips. The girl entertained him. “Once again you prove to be an interesting specimen, Asami.” A shame she wasn''t his.
