Naruto shippuden storm 4 metal poster
Once awakening, Metal was given an apology from Shikadai for his early statements. As the possessed Metal began to break free, he stumbled over and accidentally knocked himself out, caused the shadowy mist to leave him. With the combined help of Boruto and Inojin, they were able to subdue Metal. Increasing Metal's hostility, he quickly attacked Shikadai on sight, demanding he fight back. The following day, a shadowy mist engulfed Metal. Deeply troubled by Shikadai's words, Metal walked away solemnly. Afterwards, Shikadai Nara made note of his problem, telling Metal to get over it. In Metal's eagerness to impress others, he accidentally caused more damage to the structure. Once getting caught up in Boruto Uzumaki's reckless fun, Metal joined some classmates in doing repair work for the Seventh Hokage's stone face as punishment. Later, as class started learning shurikenjutsu, Metal's social-anxiety started up during practice. Despite the pleasant ending, Metal and the rest of the class were fiercely scolded later by sensei Anko Mitarashi for skipping class. Ultimately, Boruto and Inojin Yamanaka's respective words resonated with Iwabee, ending the fight. Metal joined the rest of the class to watch the fight in a training arena. As two students began arguing about what it means to be shinobi, they decided to skip class to settle things in fight.
Two weeks later, after Boruto's suspension ended and he finally joined the class, he quickly got into a confrontation with the class' top student Iwabee Yuino. In the anime, on the day of the Academy entrance ceremony, Boruto Uzumaki without warning crashed a train into the Hokage Rock, cancelling the ceremony. As such, he is able to effectively perform Cooperation Ninjutsu and Fūinjutsu, able to use both to restrict a person's movements and expand the might of this alongside fellow users. Unlike his father, Metal Lee is able to externally release his chakra and thereby perform ninjutsu. Metal is also quite adept at shurikenjutsu, able to effectively aim for targets from behind blind-spots. When properly motivated, he can subconsciously open the first of the Eight Gates. In the anime, while using his natural anxiety to drive him, Metal instinctively fights in a more erratic yet extremely effective manner similar to the Drunken Fist, which proved able to pressure his taijutsu master father in a serious match. He also has adept reflexes and dexterity. Such strength has allowed him to hold his own against Shinki, losing the fight only because of a technicality. Metal also has notably high strength, able to easily pummel rocks with his fists, and deliver fierce kicks. He's shown to have great stamina and endurance, able to keep up with his father's daily intense training regiments. Metal specialises in the Strong Fist-style taijutsu, and, when not overwhelmed by his insecurities, lives up to his reputation as a genius even within his taijutsu-excelling clan. Upon becoming a genin, he began to wear his forehead protector on his belt. His likeness is further perpetuated by his attire: he wears a green jumpsuit with orange leg warmers, a scarf and bandages over his hands. His eyes, however, are noticeably sharper. Metal Lee bears a strong resemblance to his father: he has shiny black hair worn in a bowl-cut style, dark eyes, and very thick eyebrows. Metal also appears to be a well-read individual, as he showed in-depth knowledge of the five current Kage, though ironically, he is unaware of how strong Naruto is. Eventually however, he was able to adjust to his anxiety, no long letting it hinder his performance, despite still being visibly there. At the same time however, he has stage fright, as when too many people watch him, he locks up and becomes unable to move or perform properly. Also like his father, he is a hot-blooded and dedicated shinobi, exemplified from consistently participating in his father's daily gruesome training regime. He apparently gained this nature from his father, Rock Lee, whom he has sincere respect for, and likewise his father's sensei, Might Guy. Metal is a very respectful and honourable young man who tends to talk exclusively without contractions in his words.
Metal becoming nervous while being watched. On the day of the Seventh Hokage's inauguration, he watched the ceremony beside his father along with Tenten and Might Guy. 5.9 Naruto Shinden: Parent and Child DayĪs Metal's parents continued to stay close to their own childhood friends, Metal ultimately got to know the kids of his parent's respective friends very well.
