An ominous wind passed through the training ground blowing the leaves all around the two combatants. Daichi took that as the metaphorical bell to start the second round of his fight. He flooded his body with chakra and sped towards Kakashi.

With his Sharingan, Kakashi saw how Daichi spread chakra throughout his body and prepared to attack. 'He's coming.'

Both of them were standing several meters apart but Daichi crossed that distance in a second. He sent a powerful punch infused with his chakra directly at Kakashi.

The Jonin quickly raised and crossed his arms to block the fast and powerful attack. The punch landed on Kakashi's forearm and the force of the attack pushed him backwards. He skidded several feet before coming to a stop. He dropped his arms and looked at his student in wonder and renewed vigilance..

'My arm is feeling numb. The power behind that punch. It was magnitudes higher than before. I had no idea he was holding back this much. If I block more attacks like that, then I won't last for long.'

At this time Daichi looked at Kakashi without a trace of emotion on his face. The next instant he vanished from view and the older man instantly ducked. He felt the wind pass and saw a leg sweep above him at high speed. Seeing Daichi miss and still in the air, Kakashi immediately took his chance and fought back. He infused chakra into his arm and sent a precise powerful punch at Daichi's outer thigh intent to reduce the boy's mobility. The punch struck its target but the next second Daichi burst into wooden pieces.

'Substitution.!'

The man immediately jumped from his spot and expanded his senses. He sensed several projectiles coming towards him at high velocity. 'If I use substitution then I'm pretty sure he'll find and attack me again almost immediately.'

Taking two kunais from his pouch, Kakashi expertly deflected all the weapons coming towards his vitals while landing safely. 'There he is.' He sensed Daichi's chakra and body flickered to the boy's location.

'He found me!' Daichi turned around and blocked the knife chop aimed at his head and sent a high kick that Kakashi blocked with his raised leg.

The two began their Taijutsu bout with neither one gaining the advantage over the other. Daichi was using Analyze skill to understand Kakashi's fighting style and attack patterns while Kakashi had the Sharingan predicting the path of Daichi's movements. Those made it easier for him to parry or redirect the attacks.

At that moment Daichi received several notifications that he looked from the corner of his eyes.

[Gamer's Mind has neutralized the attack.]

'He's trying to cast Genjutsu on me. Too bad...'

Kakashi tried to place one Genjutsu after another on Daichi but each one failed as soon as the chakra entered the boy's system. The man narrowed his eyes as he looked at Daichi's confident face. 'Genjutsu isn't working on him. And he doesn't even have to disturb his chakra flow. It's almost as if he's immune to it.'

Kakashi stopped using that tactic to conserve his chakra.

Daichi was keeping Kakashi at bay with a combination of skills such as Sprint, Body flicker and chakra enhancement. 'This battle has only just begun. I can't keep going at this intensity so early. I need to break away and create a few shadow clones... But how...?'

Daichi tilted his head and evaded the strike to his face as he sent a stomp to the knee that was blocked.

Both opponents were in a sort of stalemate due to them beginning to understand the other's fighting techniques and Taijutsu style.
