I am the most popular character in Naruto!

Minato looked regretfully at Deidara soaring high in the air and muttered to himself, "I heard this technique was used to deal with Uchiha Itachi?"

"This kid really underestimates Itachi Uchiha and the Sharingan."

If Sasuke, with his half-baked Sharingan, could see through Garuda's true nature, how could Itachi, whose strength comes from 90% of his Sharingan, not see through it?

Since Itachi was able to see through the truth of Garuda, how could he possibly be unable to decipher it?

Is a mere Lightning Release technique difficult for an Uchiha clan ninja with the Sharingan?

The greatest strength of C4 Garuda is its stealth and high flexibility. If used to attack ninjas who lack sensory abilities, do not understand the nature of explosive clay, or do not possess the Lightning Release attribute, it is a sure-fire way to defeat them.

Especially for tank-type ninjas and taijutsu-type ninjas, if they are caught by C4 Garuda, they will be reduced to ashes.

However, by sheer coincidence, Deidara's weapon was intended to be used against the Uchiha clan.

And coincidentally, Sasuke's specialty is Lightning Release, which completely counters Exploding Clay.

This wave can be described as a pure hard counter.

"Fight!"

Sasuke stood rooted to the spot, his hands clasped together in a mudra, his entire body crackling with fierce lightning.

"Infinite Thousand Birds Stream!"

Sizzle

Chidori Stream flashed wildly on Sasuke's body, and lightning surged from all the acupoints on his body, stimulating him until his whole body was numb.

Although Sasuke himself was unable to move, the Chidori Stream was extremely effective at dealing with that layer of gray mist.

It was as if a section of the enormous fog had been swallowed up by something, creating a large space amidst the lightning, thus preserving Sasuke's existence.

Sasuke struggled to turn his eyes, and seeing that the surrounding mist couldn't penetrate his area, he immediately realized that he had made the right gamble. He breathed a sigh of relief, and a feeling of having escaped death and proving himself welled up inside him.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Orochimaru's teaching of Sasuke is still just a formality."

"That's right. Orochimaru's methods alone are enough to overwhelm Sasuke; there's no need for a detailed explanation."

Minato commented on Sasuke's performance, saying that he could only give Sasuke a score of six out of ten at most.

Sasuke is already quite good at changing the form and nature of chakra, but he still doesn't do enough in terms of the interaction and counteraction of chakra.

In particular, Sasuke's desperate attempt seemed rather immature to Minato.

There's nothing I can do.

Minato is already a Kage, and from his high vantage point, everything he sees seems inadequate.

"...Drink it!"

Deidara, who was flying in the air, also saw the lightning on Sasuke's body. His face turned ugly as he detonated his explosive clay.

He was well aware of the weakness of his C4 Garuda, but the fact that Sasuke broke the technique so easily was still hard for Deidara to accept.

This is a big gift prepared for Itachi Uchiha!

Judging from the difficulty and chakra content of C4 Garuda, it is definitely a technique with an S-rank difficulty and peak Kage-level damage!

The results of it?

It has absolutely no effect on an elite Jonin.

If it has no effect on Sasuke, then it has even less effect on Itachi Uchiha, right?

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

Deidara went even more mad, frantically forming hand seals and continuously detonating the tiny clay spiders.

The hazy gray mist emanating from Garuda adhered to the surrounding plants and animals, which continued to move about without any awareness.

But the next second, as if a scythe of death was reaping, all the places covered by the gray mist lost their color, and a gray-white color filled the entire world. Then, everything around Sasuke shattered.

"!!!"

Having already escaped to a distance, Scorpion looked around in shock. He had anticipated this situation and had set up a protective barrier around himself.

That's why he survived Garuda's attack range.

so horrible.

This silent attack is even more ferocious than some toxins.

only……

Sasuke, who had used almost all of his chakra to unleash the Infinite Chidori Stream, was completely unharmed and was still standing there perfectly fine.

"Heh...heh...this is your trump card?"

"A powerful weapon to deal with Itachi Uchiha?"

Sasuke, panting heavily, still retorted ruthlessly, "You can't even handle me, and you think you can deal with that guy?"

He forced himself to suppress his trembling heart and shaking hands, determined to make the best of a show.

"Shut up!"

"You have absolutely no idea what art is!"

Deidara retorted angrily, "You simply can't appreciate this kind of explosive art!"

"Yeah, I wouldn't even bother looking at this kind of trash."

Sasuke waved his hand, suppressing his trembling heart, and unleashed a Chidori Sharp Spear at Deidara.

Deidara was still enraged when he was caught off guard and pierced through by Sasuke's Chidori Spear.

The clay giant eagle beneath his feet also lost its power due to the lightning release, causing it to plummet to the ground with him.

"Hahaha, I see. Lightning Release is your nemesis, is that it?"

Lightning crackled in Sasuke's hands. "I'm very sorry, but my specialty is Lightning Release!"

"Your art is utterly worthless in the face of my Lightning Release!"

"Damn...!"

Deidara felt extremely insulted after hearing Sasuke's mockery.

He clutched his pierced chest, blood rushing to his head. "Try swearing again!"

"Art?"

"Ah."

Sasuke only believes in ultimate strength; art and the like are not within his consideration.

His sneer and disdainful attitude thoroughly enraged Deidara, who ripped open his clothes, revealing a huge mouth on his chest.

"Damn it! I'll make sure you die!"

"I'm going to show you my ultimate art!"

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Deidara stuffed all the clay in his pocket into his body and roared, "I will dedicate myself to art!"

"Ten kilometers in diameter!"

"C0! Self-destruct!"

"Art is an explosion!!!"

Chapter 749 Moon Reading Space

A blood moon hung in the sky, and countless drops of blood spread through the air, creating a bizarre and invisible sense of terror.

Crows flew in formation, corpses lay scattered everywhere, severed limbs and mangled bodies were laid out haphazardly, and trickles of blood formed streams.

Whoever enters this space will feel an unparalleled impact.

The impact was quite terrifying; those who had not experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood could not withstand the stench of blood.

The killing intent and bloodlust intertwined, the filth and stench of blood mingled, and the nauseating smell, along with the shock of the rotting corpses, was unbearable even for ninjas specializing in killing.

"Ugh... Hey bro, could you turn off the special effects? It's making me feel uncomfortable."

Kakashi covered his mouth and nose, his face grim, and said to Itachi Uchiha.

"Within the Tsukuyomi space, all space, time, and mass are under my control. No matter how strong a body or how agile a speed, they are all ineffective before Tsukuyomi!"

Uchiha Itachi stood quietly in front of Kakashi, raised his katana, and looked at Kakashi, saying, "What you say has no effect on me."

"?"

"Is this a mannequin?"

Kakashi glanced at Itachi, who was executing a predetermined program like a robot, and kicked him away.

"Kakashi, don't be so short-tempered."

Sure enough, after Kakashi kicked the dummy away, a soft laugh came from behind him. Itachi stood there quietly with a smile on his face.

Kakashi glared at him and said, "I've already given you the code, you should know I'm one of us, why are you doing this!"

"Hehe, I was just testing whether you are the real Kakashi."

Itachi's voice was steady, with a friendly tone.

He was one of the people who watched Kakashi grow up. Itachi, who was always clinging to Chiaki, could always see Kakashi and hear the rumors of Kakashi's genius.

"Bullshit! Can't someone with Sharingan tell if I'm in my true form?!"

Kakashi immediately started criticizing him. After Chiaki revealed to him that Uchiha Itachi was one of his own, Kakashi understood everything that had happened before.

While he felt sorry for Uchiha Itachi, he also knew he had to protect Itachi's feelings and not let him feel pitied or sympathized with.

"The Sharingan isn't some kind of omnipotent thing; it's normal that it can't see through things."

Itachi waved his hand, erasing the mountains of corpses and seas of blood from the Tsukuyomi space and replacing it with the peaceful living room of the Senju family mansion.

In the living room, a pink-haired girl with an indistinct face was silently brewing tea with her back to the two of them. She was just a background figure, distant and untouchable.

"This illusion... is truly amazing."

Kakashi sighed, and Itachi glanced at him. "I already said that I control everything here, so you don't need to make a fuss."
