Chapter 226 The Battle of the Mangekyou Sharingan

"Uchiha Itachi?"

"Uchiha Itachi".

"Uchiha Itachi!!"

From doubt to confirmation, and then to a heart-wrenching scream, Uchiha Sasuke called out his brother's name three times in a row.

However, Sasuke was just a genin who had awakened the Sharingan with two tomoe, and his overall strength was not even up to Gaara's level. He had no way to break through the wall of purple flames that blocked the stands.

Uchiha Itachi heard his brother's roar, and his heart skipped a beat, but on the surface he remained unusually cold, as if speaking to a stranger: "Oh, so it's my foolish brother. You're not dead yet?"

"You've witnessed the deaths of so many loved ones, and five whole years have passed, yet you only have two tomoe Sharingan."

"What a disappointing piece of trash."

After saying that, Itachi Uchiha turned to look at the private room, ready to join the battle against the Fifth Hokage.

But just as he bent down, preparing to leap out, someone called his name again in a resentful and venomous tone: "Uchiha, Itachi!"

The voice sounded somewhat unfamiliar to Itachi Uchiha; he couldn't even remember who it was. However, he could clearly sense the hatred and immense power of the person who had spoken.

Hatred and power intertwined to create an intense killing intent, which even made Itachi Uchiha's back feel hot.

Uchiha Itachi slowly straightened up and turned his head to see a round-faced Uchiha girl.

The girl's long, beautiful hair was tied into a bun for easy combat, and she was wearing the Jonin uniform most suitable for battle. Her eyes were round and very cute, but at this moment they were filled with flames of hatred.

Itachi Uchiha almost murmured the girl's name: "—Izumi, are you alright?"

Uchiha Izumi said hatefully, "I'm not good, but I'll be fine after I kill you!"

Uchiha Itachi composed himself and said coldly, "With your strength, you will only die by my blade."

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with that. I will use the fastest and least painful method to free you from the pain of living."

Uchiha Izumi: "————, you damn pervert, the only pain I can feel is that you're still alive!"

,

"You damned traitor! Today, as the head of the Uchiha clan, I will take your head and offer it as a sacrifice to the Uchiha clan members you slaughtered!"

With each sentence Uchiha Izumi spoke, she blinked.

Every time I blink, Quan's eyes change.

From black pupils to red three-tomoe Sharingan, and then to the intricately patterned Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha Izumi displayed the power of her Mangekyou Sharingan without reservation.

Uchiha Itachi became serious. As a Mangekyou Sharingan user, he knew very well how powerful the Mangekyou Sharingan was.

Even if Izumi Uchiha hadn't trained properly for the past five years, as long as she awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, she would have the strength and qualifications to face Itachi Uchiha directly.

Uchiha Itachi was startled and turned his head sharply to look at the location of the battle box. After looking around at the towering purple barriers, he finally understood what was going on.

He sighed, "It turned out to be a trap. We were tricked by the Fifth Hokage."

Uchiha Izumi drew her short sword and said, following the instructions of her older brother Xia Zuo, "The Fifth Hokage said: It's been five years. The Uchiha traitor should be impatient. We can try to catch him by fishing. Maybe we'll catch him."

Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha instantly lost his composure.

He opened his Mangekyou Sharingan and growled like a madman, "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!"

clang!

As he wished, Uchiha Izumi stopped talking, but still swung his sword at him.

Izumi's swordsmanship was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, she slashed at Uchiha Itachi's face, forcing him to shut his mouth, take out a kunai, and block the short sword that Izumi was slashing at him.

Then, Uchiha Izumi transformed into a phantom, circling around Uchiha Itachi. Each time she swung her sword down, she paused slightly, leaving behind an afterimage of her attack.

From Sasuke's perspective, it looked as if a dozen or so Izumi Uchiha were besieging Itachi Uchiha.

Even Itachi Uchiha, whose hand speed was seven hand seals per second, was forced into a frantic state. Not only did he use his transplanted White Zetsu left hand to hold a kunai to defend himself, but he also used both legs to barely hold on.

His greatest strength wasn't close-quarters combat, but rather using illusions to control and disrupt enemies, then combining that with a decisive strike.

However, Izumi Uchiha only possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, and with Xia Zuo's help, the pair of Mangekyou Sharingan she awakened were specifically designed to counter genjutsu.

Xia Zuo demanded that Quan treat his unique eye technique as a top secret, and never tell anyone under any circumstances. Not only could he not tell anyone, but even if the enemy guessed it, he must never admit it.

However, Xia Zuo still managed to roughly guess the general abilities of Quan's eye technique.

One is to forcibly stabilize one's own chakra, so that it cannot be shaken by any genjutsu.

This eye technique has a passive effect, and its power is simply outrageous.

Xia Zuo even suspected that Uchiha Izumi could withstand the attack of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Secondly, after being attacked by any control skill, it automatically clears all abnormal statuses and refreshes its status to a specific time ago.

This eye technique is triggered passively, but its effect is incredibly powerful, even involving the laws of time. Its awesomeness is in no way inferior to [Divine Might].

However, both of Uchiha Izumi's eye techniques are defensive, lacking a decisive offensive method, which makes it difficult for her to win against enemies of equal strength.

The Fourth Kazekage was an exception; his Magnet Release: Gold Sand was good at dealing with large-scale enemies, but he wasn't good at one-on-one combat.

Furthermore, the Fourth Kazekage's resistance to genjutsu was quite average, and his speed was his biggest weakness. Against Izumi Uchiha, who possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan and had mastered the Swift Release technique, he was naturally defeated in a single exchange.

Uchiha Izumi's attack lasted for several seconds, during which she slashed a full 100 times before finally running out of breath and having to retreat to rest.

Her panting was quite noticeable, but Itachi Uchiha's panting was even more intense, almost like he was working a bellows.

The boy and girl stared intently at each other, their eyes filled with murderous intent, trying to recover their strength so they could fight again at any moment.

Jiraiya was taken aback by the battle between the two Uchiha. Their speed was too fast, and even he found it difficult to deal with.

However, it is clear that Uchiha Izumi, who has mastered [Swift Release], has the initiative to fight or not fight. Even if she cannot defeat Uchiha Itachi, a rogue ninja, she will not encounter any danger.

Jiraiya was naturally relieved and turned his attention to the Uchiha battle on the other side.

Obito Uchiha moved the Kamui dimension to the core area of ​​the battle, and while no one was paying attention, he opened the portal and jumped into the battlefield.

But before Obito could prepare to attack or show off, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and stared at him.

Another pair of Mangekyou Sharingan appeared. The newcomer was none other than Shisui, the "Body Flicker," a member of the mobile squad tasked with responding to external enemies in the "Konoha Crush Plan."

Uchiha Shisui carefully observed Uchiha Obito wearing a mask, and could only confirm that this was not an Uchiha ninja he knew or had ever met.

Uchiha Shisui laughed indifferently. Since he was going to fight him anyway, did it really matter who it was?

"Die, you traitor of the Uchiha clan!"

Uchiha Shisui launched an attack. He was so fast that he arrived in front of Uchiha Obito in the blink of an eye, and his left hand stabbed the kunai at Obito's mask.

Who knew that the kunai would "pass through" the mask and also "pass through" the head behind the mask.

【Divine Might - Intangibility】

Obito Uchiha also raised his hand, ready to launch a counterattack against Shisui the moment their bodies separated.

But to his utter surprise, Uchiha Shisui's hand stopped, stopping right where Uchiha Obito's head was.

Obito Uchiha was completely bewildered. He didn't know what problems would arise if he deactivated Kamui: Intangibility. The worst-case scenario was that Shisui's hand and a kunai would grow into his head.

Obito Uchiha dared not take any risks, so he began to dodge, trying to escape his current predicament.

But Shisui's speed was obviously faster than his, and no matter how Obito dodged, he couldn't get Shisui's hand out of the range of his head.

It wasn't until Obito Uchiha got desperate and managed to float upwards to buy himself some time, that he was able to return to his normal appearance.

Uchiha Shisui snorted coldly: "It's better to be back to normal. I can attack at will now."

Shisui suddenly drew his ninja sword from his back and slashed at Obito Uchiha, who was barely floating in the air.

Obito Uchiha's aura was disrupted, and he could no longer maintain his floating state. He also dared not use intangibility to fight again, because he knew that this move had now been broken by Shisui.

Obito Uchiha could only reach into the spatial vortex. He retrieved his own weapon from the Kamui dimension and engaged Shisui Uchiha in battle.

But when it came to hand-to-hand combat, Obito Uchiha was surprised to find that he was no match for Shisui Uchiha.

This was not caused by the difference in their Sharingan abilities, but rather by the inevitable result of the huge gap in their combat experience and talent.

Uchiha Shisui not only stepped onto the battlefield at a very young age, but also participated in countless battles, forging his name "Shisui of the Body Flicker" with the blood of his enemies.

In contrast, Obito Uchiha had hardly ever fought a serious battle before half of his body was destroyed by a boulder.

Moreover, he was the team's comic relief and liability, and had gained almost no combat experience.

After he was buried by rocks, under Madara Uchiha's guidance, Obito quickly awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and also gained access to the Uchiha clan's resources.

After that, Obito Uchiha used his Mangekyou Sharingan to crush every opponent he encountered, gaining experience in how to bully the weak.

Now, Obito Uchiha is facing Shisui Uchiha, the first enemy stronger than him since he awakened his Sharingan.

Obito Uchiha was undoubtedly suppressed.

However, the crazed Obito completely disregarded his own safety and only focused on attacking, which made Uchiha Shisui feel very uncomfortable.

The two sides reached a stalemate.

Meanwhile, the battle between Uchiha Izumi and Uchiha Itachi resumed, and the second round of fighting began with the exclusive eye techniques of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Uchiha Itachi opened his crimson Mangekyou Sharingan and used his strongest offensive ninjutsu.

【Amaterasu】

Streaks of black flame shot out from the Sharingan, like shuriken, towards Uchiha Izumi.

Uchiha Izumi opened her Mangekyou Sharingan and released the secret technique she had copied from Xia Zuo.

【Netherworld Escape - Netherworld Prison】

Before Uchiha Izumi, a pitch-black sphere suddenly appeared. The sphere, only the size of a marble, distorted space, stretched time, and released the most terrifying gravitational force, attracting everything to merge into it.

Fortunately, this is not a real black hole, but a result of chakra simulation. The caster can control the specific target of attraction, so it will not destroy the ninja world.

The terrifying flames were swallowed by the pitch-black Netherworld Star, but then pitch-black flames appeared outside the black sphere, as if it had been ignited by black flames.

The black hole-like star of the underworld seemed to have turned into a black sun.

However, Itachi Uchiha discovered that the black flames burning on the black sphere were no longer under his control, but instead became Izumi Uchiha's weapon to attack him.

For a moment, Itachi Uchiha could only desperately dodge the black flames, jumping up and down in a very disheveled state.

In this round, Uchiha Izumi, with the help of Xia Zuo's secret technique, still maintained the upper hand.

After two rounds, Itachi Uchiha had become somewhat familiar with Izumi Uchiha's fighting style and even guessed some of the Mangekyou Sharingan's abilities.

In the ensuing battle, Itachi Uchiha launched a counterattack.

With his rich combat experience and unreasonable fighting talent, he suppressed Uchiha Izumi without even using Susanoo, and quickly gained an absolute advantage.

As Izumi Uchiha became increasingly passive in the battle, she finally managed to bring down Jiraiya, the leader of the special squad.

[Spirit Spell: The Stomach of the Giant Rock Toad]

The ground softened into bright red flesh and strangely curled upwards, attempting to envelop Itachi Uchiha within its fleshy walls.

Once completely sealed off, Jiraiya can activate the Reverse Summoning Technique to send the Giant Toad of Iwajutsu and its stomach contents back to Mount Myōboku.

No matter how powerful Itachi Uchiha was, could he possibly survive being surrounded by the giant toads of Mount Myōboku?

Although Itachi Uchiha did not know that he would be sent to Mount Myōboku, he could guess that once he was completely wrapped up, his fate would definitely not be good.

He was naturally unwilling to accept defeat, so he used all his remaining chakra to his fullest extent and poured it into his eyes without reservation.

Itachi Uchiha unleashed his strongest black flames once again.

【Amaterasu】

Don't be fooled by how easily the black flames are handled by [Nether Release: Nether Prison]; it's a special secret technique that Xia Zuo developed specifically to suppress the level of his Bloodline Limit.

When faced with the "ordinary" giant toad, Amaterasu's black flames finally revealed their terrifying destructive power.

In just a moment, the black flames burned through the stomach of the giant rock toad.
