I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 24 Susanoo VS Great Ape!

Uchiha Hikaru didn't hold back with this strike.

As the kunai's blade sliced ​​through, the flesh on his arm was torn open, blood flowed freely, and the wound almost exposed bone.

But the wound healed at a visible speed the next second, returning to normal in just one breath. Even after wiping away the blood and examining it closely, there was no trace of the injury.

Uchiha Hikaru then pierced his own palm and thigh in turn, savoring the sensation.

"The healing speed is even faster than expected. The pain only appears for the first second, and the newly grown skin and flesh are almost indistinguishable from the previous ones, with no impact on mobility..."

"However, these injuries are too minor. We need to assess the upper limit of the healing speed to determine if the injuries are more severe."

If the dragon hadn't cut corners on fulfilling her wish, then logically speaking, even if she had cut off her own arm or gouged out her own eyes, she should have been able to regenerate a pair immediately. After all, that would be considered a form of "damage" to the body.

However, the cost of this experiment was quite high, and Uchiha Hikaru was a little unsure of himself...

Just as Uchiha Hikaru was hesitating, deciding to try breaking a few fingers first...

Then they heard a gasp of surprise coming from Bulma and the others.

"Huh? What happened?"

Uchiha Hikaru turned around to look.

As my gaze fell, I saw a gigantic ape appear on the lawn not far away, and it continued to grow larger. Above its head was a full, round moon, radiating its bright light.

"Hikaru, run! Goku has turned into a monster!"

Bulma, Yamcha, and the others were fleeing for their lives while calling out to Uchiha Hikaru.

"..."

Uchiha Hikaru's lips twitched.

She remembered reminding Bulma when she left Pilaf Prison to make sure Goku didn't look up at the moon...

but……

"This is an opportunity!"

"Perfect, let's test the upper limit of Goku's regenerative abilities!"

Normally, Goku's fighting power is only in the teens. He's fine sparring with Hikaru Uchiha in taijutsu, but he can't get her to use the Mangekyou Sharingan. However, in his Great Ape form, Goku's fighting power skyrockets to over 100, approaching Master Roshi's level.

Furthermore, because he lacks rationality, his actual strength is far lower than Master Roshi's, and he has the fatal weakness of his tail. If he really can't beat him, he can quickly end the battle by cutting off his tail... He's perfect as a sparring partner to test his own recovery ability!

After thinking this through.

As Bulma and the others passed by, Uchiha Hikaru did not follow them. Instead, he took a deep breath and charged towards the giant ape.

"Kaleidoscope Sharingan..."

"Susanoo!"

Start with your ultimate move!

As the power of his pupils surged, dark red arms and ribs emerged from the void.

Then there's the skull-like skeleton.

Next, meridians and flesh constructed of chakra extended from the skeleton, like a giant cloak, enveloping Uchiha Hikaru entirely. In the right hand of this Susanoo, a massive longsword, nearly blackish-red in color, was gripped tightly.

—Each Susanoo has its own unique weapon, and Uchiha Hikaru's unique weapon is a two-handed greatsword.

And then...

"Susanoo, Third Form!"

Uchiha Hikaru continued to activate his eye power.

A massive surge of ocular chakra was injected into Susanoo in an almost frenzied manner. The already enormous Susanoo expanded further, growing a lower body and legs, and slowly rose from the ground, reaching a height of over twenty meters, almost the same as the giant ape.

During this process, dark red tears of blood flowed from Uchiha Hikaru's eyes once again.

At the same time, a tingling sensation also appears, instantly relieving the pain to a very slight level, which is almost imperceptible if you don't pay close attention.

"When using a dojutsu, the process should involve first depleting energy and then healing it. Before the third form of Susanoo, the healing speed directly covers the depletion speed, so the process is completely imperceptible. Starting from the third form, there is a slight difference, but it is basically negligible..."

While making these judgments.

Uchiha Hikaru controlled Susanoo, crossing his arms in front of his chest in a blocking stance.

The next moment, the giant ape that Little Goku had transformed into rammed into him!

BOOM—!!

The two massive bodies collided head-on in the open space, unleashing a tremendous shockwave that rippled outwards like a tidal wave, instantly cracking the ground for dozens of meters. The earthquake-like tremors continued to spread, and fierce winds swept outwards, causing the castle's buildings to crack and deform under the pressure, showing signs of collapse.

"So strong..."

Uchiha Hikaru couldn't withstand the giant ape's savage charge. He was tumbled twice on the ground and smashed a tower before he used his Susanoo to forcefully open his arms and create distance between himself and the giant ape.

During this process, she briefly observed the positions of Bulma and the others, and retreated to the opposite direction from them.

—The commotion caused by one giant ape is already huge enough. Now, two monsters are fighting here. If the aftershocks cause Bulma and the others to get trapped, it will be a real problem.

"roar!!"

The giant ape pounded its chest, trying to bolster its courage.

Uchiha Hikaru drew his two greatswords from his waist, and after a brief standoff, he took a step forward and swung his sword vertically!

bang——

The sound of the greatsword tearing through the air exploded high in the sky!

"roar!!!"

The giant ape roared repeatedly, spreading its arms to grab the greatsword in mid-air, then clasped its hands together. Just as the dark red greatsword was about to fall on the giant ape's head, it was firmly grasped by those huge fleshy hands, pressed down a few meters, and then barely stopped.

"Although I didn't dare use my full strength, at least I managed to withstand that sword strike..."

"Susanoo, Fourth Form!"

Uchiha Hikaru assessed the situation of both his own and the enemy's forces, and once again activated his eye power at a high intensity.

As blood and tears streamed from its eyes, the pain intensified, and the dark red Susanoo's body expanded from its original twenty-odd meters to thirty or forty meters. A dense layer of Tengu armor appeared around its body.

In this state, the giant ape's strength was no longer enough to restrain the two-handed greatsword.

With a slight effort, Uchiha Hikaru pulled the greatsword from his palm. As he sheathed the sword, he used Susanoo to knock the giant ape to the ground, then grabbed his shoulder and pressed down hard!

A power far greater than the previous three forms erupted, presenting an almost crushing force. Even as the giant ape roared madly, it still couldn't help but submit!
