I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 53 Have you ever witnessed my prime?

This moment.

A shooting star trailing a crimson flame streaked across the deep night sky and crashed squarely in front of the stone house!

In an instant, the impact from the sky poured out wildly, forming a milky white shockwave that pushed away all the surrounding air! Within a radius of tens of meters, a huge vacuum area was formed!

The huge, snake-like cracks spread wildly in all directions, and the sound of the stone walls collapsing echoed throughout the area!

Rumbling--

Smoke and dust filled the sky!

Amidst the commotion, Uchiha Hikaru extinguished the light source of his protective suit. Under the protection of the Susanoo skeleton, he slowly landed and surveyed his surroundings.

The cluster of stone houses that could be seen from the air has vanished. In its place lies a ruin of broken walls and crumbling walls.

The "father" with the spider-like face also disappeared.

All the demons in the Spider Clan were taken in and raised by the true Lower Moon "Rui." Because they consumed the blood given to them by Rui, they gained spider-based blood demon arts similar to his. Among them, this "father" is the demon whose strength is closest to Rui's in the entire clan. He has extraordinary physical strength and regenerative ability, as well as a body as hard as a rock, and can further strengthen himself by shedding his skin.

If the previous attack, Flowing Starfall, was as powerful as the one used against Danzo, then even if this guy were a real rock, he would have been crushed into dust long ago.

but……

Uchiha Hikari currently only has one-fifth of her chakra remaining. In addition, she deliberately shifted her landing point slightly to the side, so "Dad" was only torn into several pieces by the sword light and buried under the ruins. He will probably be able to climb out on his own in a while.

"Little...Little Hikari?"

A rustling sound came from Uchiha Hikaru's shirt pocket.

Bulma, her hands trembling, grasped the edge of Uchiha Hikaru's pocket, poked her head out a little, her face pale: "We're not dead yet?"

"...I think so."

Uchiha Hikaru responded softly.

She had actually been keeping an eye on Bulma, not only putting one arm in front of her chest but also gathering some chakra around her chest to prevent Bulma from being thrown out of her pocket due to the rapid fall. However, this experience of falling from the sky was obviously a bit too exciting.

"Um... Hikaru, can I come out now?"

Bulma hesitated for a moment, her face turning from white to red, and she murmured softly, "I want to go change my pants first..."

"..."

Uchiha Hikaru paused for a moment, then subtly sniffed, vaguely understanding Bulma's meaning, but the words that came out were undeniable: "No."

"what?"

"Because the battle isn't over yet... something is about to emerge."

As Uchiha Hikaru finished speaking.

Suddenly, a piercing noise came from the ruins ahead.

First, a thick arm emerged from the rubble, then a tall, dark-skinned body slowly pushed aside the surrounding stone slabs, rising to its feet amidst the collapsed ruins. The massive body, four or five meters tall and resembling a small mountain, exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.

—If it weren't for the huge wounds on his body, carved out by sword energy and still not fully healed, this sense of oppression might feel more real.

Bulma immediately shrank back, clutching the inside of her clothes in the pocket, trembling.

Uchiha Hikaru glanced at "Dad" briefly before turning his gaze to the other side.

That's the woods to the right of the hillside.

Before anyone knew it, a short boy dressed in white with white hair had quietly appeared, looking at them with cold eyes and a faint killing intent emanating from him.

Uchiha Hikaru tilted his head: "Lower Moon Five, tired?"

no respond.

After a brief eye contact, Lei spoke coldly: "You... deserve to die."

"She destroyed the house our family lived in, and she has to pay the price. Dad, kill her!"

"roar!"

The battle erupted in an instant.

Upon receiving the order, "Dad" roared and suddenly lifted a stone slab several meters long, smashing it down. At the same time, he stepped forward, his fist, as big as a casserole dish, tearing through the air and blasting towards the direction where Uchiha Hikaru was! Judging from the momentum, it was clear that he was going to smash her into a pancake with one punch!

Facing two blasts of air hurtling towards him, Uchiha Hikaru, short sword in hand, took a deep breath:

"Water Breathing - Fourth Form, Tide of Strike!"

Blades dance!

At that moment, blue ripples appeared in the air, transforming into a tidal wave of continuous slashes as Uchiha Hikaru twisted his waist, striking the incoming stone slab. In the blink of an eye, the stone slab shattered, and the short sword's momentum continued as it slashed towards "Dad's" incoming fist!

Clang—!

As the blade clashed with her fist, Uchiha Hikaru immediately felt the immense force transmitted along the edge, but her expression remained calm and composed. She even had the mind to take a breath: "Thunder Breathing - First Form, Thunderclap Flash!"

The pale golden arc of light flickered, then suddenly lengthened!

As the "Breathing of Lightning" was activated, Uchiha Hikaru's short sword suddenly accelerated, cleaving through "Dad's" fist with an irresistible force, splitting the back half of his arm and even the bones in the middle in two! However, the blade of the short sword could not withstand such a powerful impact and broke in two midway.

Snapped--!

The moment the blade broke, Uchiha Hikaru retreated, quickly escaping "Dad's" attack range.

The next second, the huge fist landed on the ground, smashing a deep crater!

"call……"

The distance between the two sides increased rapidly.

"Dad" let out a painful roar, ignoring the fountain of blood gushing from his arm, he forcefully pulled out the half of the short sword embedded deep in his arm bone and threw it far away at Uchiha Hikaru. She casually flicked it away with the remaining half of the short sword.

After doing all this, Uchiha Hikaru looked at the broken sword in his hand and frowned slightly.

"It seems the forging techniques at Konoha's ninja tool shop are mediocre; it couldn't even withstand this level of impact."

"Next time I go back, I'll have to find a suitable weapon... Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword looks pretty good, maybe I can ask him for one?"

the other side.

Tired, her eyelids drooping, as if she could already foresee the ending: "I thought it was a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, but it turns out it was just a bluff... Father, it's up to you now. Before dawn tomorrow, I want to see her body hanging at the foot of the mountain."

"..."

A brief silence.

Uchiha Hikaru sighed softly, "I was originally planning to try out my newly learned techniques on you guys, but... never mind. You Lower Moon brat over there, have you ever witnessed my prime?"

"?"

He stopped in his tracks, looking somewhat puzzled.

then……

His eyelids twitched violently, and a pair of scarlet eyes came into view!

"Magic Illusion: The Shackles Technique!"
