Start with Naruto Awakening - Awesome!

　Strictly speaking, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi is a katana, with a blade and edge.

　In this world, the distinction between swords and knives is not so clear!

　Uchiha Yue's sword looked ordinary, but as it was gently raised, a cold glint appeared.

　Like starlight, it extends from the hilt to the tip of the sword.

　A chilling atmosphere permeated the air.

　Ye Chen closed his eyes slightly, unsure if his Conqueror's Haki could deflect the Jonin's genjutsu with three tomoe!

　Just to be safe, I closed my eyes beforehand and used my Observation Haki as my eyes to perceive the surrounding environment!

　"Is he just closing his eyes and waiting to die?" Uchiha Sanao couldn't help but sneer when he saw this scene.

　"Ye Chen." Kushina's eyes were filled with worry. She hated herself for being too weak to help Ye Chen and always needing to be protected.

　"Hide well," Ye Chen said, drawing his demon sword, Yama.

　The blade of Yama trembled slightly, emitting a crisp sound, and wisps of purple demonic energy emanated from it, making it appear extremely sinister!

　"Huh? This knife!"

　Uchiha Sanao is skilled in using katana and has also collected many famous swords, possessing exceptional eyesight!

　But this is the first time I've ever seen a long sword as spiritual and demonic as Enma's!

　He couldn't help but exclaim, "This sword is among the top three I've ever seen! It's a disgrace that it's in the hands of a mere brat! If I kill you, this sword will naturally be mine!"

　After speaking, Uchiha Sanao dashed forward, drew his sword, and slashed, unleashing a crescent-shaped blade of energy that pierced through the air!

　This era was unlike the peaceful period of later Naruto, because of constant war and battles.

　Basically, powerful ninjas all possess considerable taijutsu skills!

　The fact that Madara Uchiha fought against an allied 100,000 ninjas alone in later generations shows the importance ninjas placed on taijutsu. This is why the Cloud Ninja developed taijutsu, and the Second Hokage even created forbidden techniques like the Eight Gates.

　Faced with Uchiha Sanao's powerful slash, Ye Chen dared not be careless. He used his Observation Haki to predict the opponent's movement and swung Enma to collide with it!

　"clang!"

　In an instant, swords clashed, sparks flew everywhere!

　The two engaged in a fierce physical duel, exchanging rapid blows and slashes, filling the air with the sounds of clashing swords and galloping horses!

　To be honest, the combination of Jonin strength, taijutsu, and the insight of the three-tomoe Sharingan makes for the most perfect attack strategy.

　If Ye Chen didn't possess Observation Haki, he probably wouldn't have lasted more than a few rounds before being killed!

　But there are no "what ifs" in this world!

　Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!

　After being forced to retreat by a single blow, Uchiha San'nao immediately formed hand seals and instantly unleashed a Great Fireball!

　Although it is a C-rank ninjutsu, when used by Jonin Uchiha Sanao, its power is no weaker than a B-rank ninjutsu!

　A huge fireball spewed out of its mouth, radiating heat and scorching the air!

　Ye Chen gripped Yama, held his breath, calmed his mind, and imbued the blade with domineering energy, instantly transforming Yama into a black sword!

　"cut!"

　(2/3)

　r/

　Without any fancy attacks, Ye Chen simply unleashed a powerful sword strike with the force of splitting a mountain!

　"Buzz!"

　The air rippled, and a black slash was unleashed, instantly darkening the sky and earth. The slash seemed to cut through the air, splitting space in two!

　The raging sea of ​​fire was split in two and flew past Ye Chen!

　The slash continued unabated. Uchiha San'ao's three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly as he dodged the attack to the side. He looked at the ground, now broken in two, with a look of shock on his face.

　"Pfft!"

　After wielding the blade, Ye Chen's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, crouching on the ground, leaning on the blade.

　"So you were all bark and no bite. This must be your strongest attack so far." Uchiha Sanao admitted that he had indeed been fooled by this brat.

　But that's enough for now. Let's strike while the iron is hot and finish him off!

　He charged forward, brandishing his ninja katana!

　Suddenly, a dark figure appeared out of thin air. This person glanced indifferently at Uchiha Sanao:

　"Hey, could you give me some face?" (3/3)

Chapter 50 Red-Haired Shanks (Please give flowers and add to your favorites!)

　"Give me some face, please!"

　Suddenly, a person appeared out of nowhere, without any prior warning.

　Uchiha Sanao remained in the sword-wielding posture, looking completely bewildered!

　Who is this guy? He just came out and already expects people to give him face!

　Ye Chen was overjoyed. He had been prepared to fight to the death. Even though he was exhausted, he thought that if he put aside his own life and death, he might be able to exchange Uchiha Canna.

　But there's a high chance that you'll also perish!

　Unexpectedly, the Four Emperors, whom we had been summoning for so long, finally appeared!

　And it was someone I knew well, Red-Haired Shanks, known as the user of the Face Fruit!

　Shanks' strength is beyond doubt and unfathomable. He is one of the Four Emperors of the Sea and has the power to rival the government. His bounty is as high as four billion!

　Ye Chen looked at Shanks in front of him, and that familiar outfit was exactly the same as the one in his memory!

　He has red hair, three scars under his left eye, short stubble around his mouth, wears a shirt and a black cloak on his upper body, his left arm is missing, it was bitten off by the King of the East Sea, and he has a long knife at his waist. He looks like a werewolf, with a unique temperament.

　"Was it you who summoned me?" Shanks turned and glanced at Ye Chen, saying with interest.

　"Yes, redhead, help me get through this crisis," Ye Chen said slowly.

　"Fighting is such a hassle!"

　The red-haired man seemed somewhat helpless, then his gaze fell on Uchiha San'nao, and with a warm smile, he said:

　"Brother, give me some face? Let's keep things peaceful, okay?"

　Uchiha Sanao was filled with doubt and surprise. This person had appeared out of nowhere and did not exude any particularly powerful aura. He looked like an ordinary person.

　But it's so late at night, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and it's in this kind of forest, could it be an ordinary person?

　While remaining vigilant, he was unwilling to give up the opportunity to kill Ye Chen!

　If this child is not eliminated, he will surely become a great threat in the future!

　"Stop talking nonsense! Who are you? If you know what's good for you, don't stop me. Otherwise, I'll kill you too!" Uchiha Sanao shouted, slowly raising his arm. The long sword gleamed with an astonishing luster and sharpness under the moonlight.

　"Oh dear, so you're just being disrespectful!" Redhead shook his head helplessly.

　"Face, face? Who do you think you are? If you don't get out of the way, I'll kill you too," Uchiha Sanao said sharply, his pupils flashing with ferocity.

　"I'm Shanks, you don't not recognize me, do you?" Red-Haired Shanks pointed to himself, as if to say that someone as famous as him could not possibly be recognized.

　Moreover, wherever I go, who won't give me face?

　Hearing Shanks' words, Ye Chen couldn't help but chuckle. He never expected that the red-haired man could be so funny.

　Besides, these two are from completely different worlds, it's impossible for them to even know you!

　The Uchiha clan is known for its pride, and Uchiha Sanao felt particularly fooled. Enraged, he shouted:

　"Go to hell!"

　After saying that, he rushed forward and raised his ninja sword to unleash a quick slash!

　The sharp blade energy slashed down, as if splitting the air in two, its chilling aura like a howling wind!

　With a nonchalant expression, Shanks simply shifted his body slightly to avoid Uchiha San's slash!

　(1/3)

　Seeing this, Uchiha Sanao became even more enraged. He flashed his ninja sword and slashed again with lightning speed, thrusting and parrying, creating a flurry of sword energy in the blink of an eye.

　However, the red-haired man casually took two or three steps as if taking a leisurely stroll and easily dodged the attack!

　In my spare time,

　Shanks even gave a special commentary on his swordsmanship:

　"The speed is good, but it's all show and no substance, all bark and no bite! The power is also a bit scattered, at best he can be considered a first-rate swordsman, far from being a sword master."

　This was Shanks' truest thought, but Uchiha Sanao heard it in a completely different way. Wasn't this a blatant humiliation?

　His swordsmanship ranks among the best in the entire Uchiha clan!

　Now some random wild man who appeared out of nowhere is showing off his swordsmanship!

　"cut!"
