I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"Thank you, Lord Ban."

Itachi bowed slightly to Obito, his expression utterly nonchalant. "Since I am the junior, let me state my bet first."

"Humph."

Obito snorted in dissatisfaction, but did not refute Itachi's words, letting him propose his own bet.

"If I win, then please, Lord Madara, show mercy and spare the Uchiha clan, how about that?"

Itachi looked directly at Obito. "You're also a member of the Uchiha clan. The condition of sparing the Uchiha clan shouldn't be too difficult for you to accept, right?"

Regardless of the circumstances, Obito's sudden appearance deep within the Uchiha clan's shrine and his control over Fugaku Uchiha must have indicated that he had designs on the Uchiha clan.

Itachi's proposal of this bet to Obito was incredibly wise.

"……Can."

Obito pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "If you accept my bet, then I'll accept yours too, how about it?"

For Obito, the Uchiha clan, and other clans, were all means for him to take revenge on Konoha.

As for why he targeted the Uchiha clan, it was because he was most familiar with them and most comfortable using them.

"Please speak, Lord Ban."

Itachi gestured to Obito, demonstrating impeccable manners.

"Since your opinion is that I should spare the Uchiha clan, then I'll make the opposite bet with you."

Obito sneered, "If you lose, I will completely destroy the Uchiha clan; otherwise, I will spare the Uchiha clan a way out."

"...That's fine."

Itachi narrowed his eyes. He noticed Obito's choice of words. Obito had obviously played a word game, bypassing Itachi's words.

But what can we do now?

It was already quite an achievement to get Obito to accept the bet using such a provocative method. If Obito could keep the bet, it would be a win for Itachi and the Uchiha clan.

what?

lose?

Itachi didn't think his throwing skills were inferior; judging from Obito's hands, he wasn't a throwing-type ninja.

"How to compare?"

Having agreed to Itachi's request, Obito relaxed and prepared to have some fun with Itachi.

He also wanted to know just how strong the current number one of the Uchiha clan really was, and why Chiaki had such high hopes for him.

"Lord Madara, do you see those pillars?"

Itachi casually pointed to the pillars in the shrine, and Obito looked up and glanced at them, memorizing their locations.

"Of course, why?"

He glanced casually at Itachi, only to find that Itachi had reached out his hand to him.

"how?"

"Please give me some kunai, Lord Madara. I am a patient and I am not carrying any weapons."

Itachi naturally shook his clothes. He was carrying nothing and looked completely powerless.

"Don't try to play tricks."

Obito frowned. He was still a little intimidated by Itachi, who was so cunning.

As a typical underachiever, even though my strength and combat experience have improved, I am still a little apprehensive when it comes to intellectual competition.

"Lord Madara, please don't joke around. Do you think I could pull any tricks on someone with the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Itachi chuckled, "Are you overestimating me, or underestimating the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

"That's true."

Obito was speechless after being told off by Itachi. Annoyed, he casually wiped his hand and pulled out a handful of kunai from his pocket, handing them to Itachi.

Itachi didn't use any tricks; he simply raised his hand and threw the kunai one after another.

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

The kunai landed precisely on the pillar that Itachi had pointed to earlier, and Obito raised an eyebrow.

This is a show of force against himself. It has to be said that Itachi's throwing technique is quite beautiful, crisp and clean, with a high hit rate. He can be called a human artillery turret.

However, they were still no match for Obito, who possessed the Sharingan and extensive experience in combat against highly skilled opponents.

"The rules are simple: whoever knocks down the most kunai from the pillar wins."

Itachi shrugged. "Of course, we can use kunai to interfere with each other. How about that?"

"A piece of cake."

Obito dismissively flipped his hand, took out a large handful of kunai, casually gave half to Itachi, and gestured for Itachi to start.

"You should start, Lord Madara."

Itachi smiled and shook his head, while Obito, without any pretense, began throwing kunai at the pillar.

Instead of Itachi firing one shot at a time, Obito opted for a three-shot burst.

The three kunai flew in a triangular formation directly towards the three pillars.

But soon, three crisp sounds rang out in mid-air. Obito didn't even see how Itachi made his move before the kunai in mid-air was knocked down.

"?"

Obito's brow twitched, and he threw out another string of kunai.

This time, he threw out five at once!

But the result was still the same. Obito didn't even see Itachi's movements clearly, and the five kunai in the air were knocked down by Itachi.

If Obito hadn't failed to sense the chakra fluctuations, he would have even thought Itachi was cheating.

"Come again!"

Unconvinced, Obito kept changing his throwing techniques: three consecutive throws, four consecutive throws, a shower of flowers...

However, Itachi was able to react instantly and knock Obito's kunai down in mid-air.

"Damn it...you attacked!"

Obito glared at Itachi through gritted teeth, while Itachi smiled, shrugged, and casually tossed a kunai onto the pillar.

Chapter 550 The Demon of Laplace

Itachi's lips curled up, and he casually threw a kunai at a pillar.

The kunai didn't fly very fast; most ninjas could throw it at that speed.

Upon seeing the kunai, Obito's lips curled into a cold smile.

Is this guy looking down on me?

Without hesitation, he pulled out a kunai and threw it at the flying kunai.

Ding dong!

With a crisp sound, Obito's kunai hit Itachi's kunai accurately, sending it spinning through the air.

See it!

Obito confidently curled the corners of his mouth as he looked at Itachi, but the next moment, Obito saw Itachi's calm smile.

"Ah."

Itachi chuckled, and two kunai appeared in his hands, which he casually tossed into the air.

The two kunai, one after the other, collided with the two kunai in mid-air at different speeds.

"Trying to outshoot me with multiple shots? I'll make sure you don't succeed!"

Obito's heart skipped a beat, and he also pulled out two kunai, throwing them one after another at the two kunai in the air.

Ding Ding!

Two more crisp sounds rang out as Obito's kunai accurately struck the two kunai simultaneously, one in front and one behind.

Suddenly, three spinning kunai and three falling kunai appeared in the air.

"How dare you try your best to do the same thing!"

Obito blinked his Sharingan. In his vision, the kunai in the air moved very slowly, and he could even predict the final landing point of each kunai.

But Itachi doesn't have the Sharingan now, so he can't use his eye power to forcibly slow down his vision.

What should you do in this situation?

Obito's Sharingan shifted slightly, his gaze falling on Itachi.

As a result, Itachi, who had been completely calm, suddenly revealed a strange smile.

"ended."

He smiled and tossed the remaining kunai aside, leaving only one.

"……not good!"

Obito suddenly had a strange premonition. He saw Itachi flick his wrist slightly, and the kunai disappeared from his hand and appeared in mid-air.

Ding ding ding ding ding!

With six consecutive collisions, in Obito's slowed-down vision using his Sharingan, the kunai actually collided with six kunai in mid-air one after another. The six kunai in mid-air then had a chain reaction, and were thrown with incredible accuracy toward the kunai on the pillar.

The next moment, all six kunai on the pillar, which served as the standard for determining victory or defeat, were hit by these "random" kunai and fell down.

"This is impossible!?"

Obito stared in shock, his eyes wide. He had never seen such incredible skill before, and even if he wanted to use a kunai to stop it, he was at a loss for what to do.

All of this happened so fast that Obito couldn't react at all.

If he hadn't just noticed that Itachi had left behind a kunai, he wouldn't have been able to tell how Itachi had made his move.
