Naruto: Sasuke Uchiha Returns from Soul Society

This is the ultimate secret of the Grim Reaper's power, an absolute power that transcends all techniques.

Taught by a cat?

This joke is lame and not funny at all.

Yoruichi showed no anger at Sasuke's rudeness. Instead, she tilted her head with interest, a playful glint in her cat-like eyes.

Its black tail swayed slowly behind it.

"Oh?"

Yoruichi's voice held a hint of amusement. "So, in your opinion, a talking cat is like a cabbage that can be picked up anywhere?"

This question made Sasuke raise an eyebrow slightly.

Or perhaps...

Yoruichi took half a step forward, her posture elegant. "Do you have some misunderstanding about my strength?"

The moment the words left his mouth, a sudden change occurred!

"Oh!"

A slight muffled thud.

Sasuke only felt a blur before his eyes, and the black cat that was originally sitting on the rock was completely enveloped by a cloud of white smoke.

The smoke dissipated.

The black cat had disappeared, replaced by a tall woman with long hair and a healthy wheat-colored complexion.

She was completely naked, her long purple hair cascading down like a waterfall, concealing her vital parts, and her golden eyes were watching him with a mocking gaze.

Chapter 49 Yoruichi the Flash

Sasuke's breath seemed to stop for a moment.

His usually calm and collected eyes suddenly widened, reflecting the wild and beautiful body before him, and his mind went blank for a moment.

The heat from the hot spring seemed to finally take effect at this moment, and a scorching wave of heat shot up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Sasuke suddenly turned his head, staring intently at the monotonous patterns on the rock, as if he wanted to burn a hole in it with his gaze.

The sound of my heart beating was clearly audible in my ears.

An unnatural blush quickly crept up his neck to his ears, eventually staining his cheeks.

"Oh?"

A voice with a lazy laugh came from behind, no longer a deep male voice, but a mature female voice with a slightly magnetic quality.

"What's wrong with our little genius?"

Yoruichi walked barefoot, with the silent steps of a cat, slowly to the edge of the hot spring pool.

Her slender and athletic figure was reflected in the water as she looked at Sasuke's stiff profile with great interest.

"I thought you, kid, only had that cold expression on your face."

Her voice carried a hint of a laugh, the teasing undisguised, "So, you can be shy too?"

"boring."

Sasuke's body tensed even more. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "...put...the clothes on."

This blustering yet cowardly demeanor contrasted sharply with his usual cold and aloof image.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Knowing when to stop, Yoruichi sensed that if she continued teasing the kitten, whose body was covered in sharp quills, it would probably really snap.

She snapped her fingers, and a black, tight-fitting combat suit appeared out of thin air, perfectly enveloping her explosively powerful body.

"Can you turn around now?" Yoruichi crossed her arms and looked at him with amusement.

Sasuke's stiff body relaxed slightly after hearing the rustling sound of clothes being put on.

Taking a deep breath, I forcibly suppressed the inexplicable restlessness in my heart and slowly turned around.

He still tried his best to maintain that cold expression on his face, but the blush that hadn't completely faded and his slightly evasive eyes completely betrayed him.

He saw Yoruichi, dressed neatly, sitting cross-legged on a rock by the pool, her chin resting on her hand, her golden eyes staring at him with great interest.

"Have you seen enough?" Sasuke's voice was a little hoarse. He subconsciously sank into the water, leaving only his head above water.

"Hmm...that's about it."

Yoruichi nodded seriously, the faint smile on her lips betraying her good mood. "Nice figure, just a bit too thin. Looks like I'll have to ask Tessai to give you extra food in the future."

"..."

Sasuke chose to remain silent; he realized that he was always at a disadvantage when talking to this woman.

"Well then, let's get back to the main topic."

Yoruichi looked at the boy who still only showed half his face, and her voice became serious again.

"Want to learn Bankai, Sasuke Uchiha?"

Upon hearing this, Sasuke's gaze finally calmed down, and he slowly raised his head to look directly at Yoruichi.

“I admit that your abilities are exceptional, but that doesn’t mean you’re qualified to mentor me.”

"Oh?"

Yoruichi raised an eyebrow with interest. "So quickly you've gone from a shy kitten back to a spiky porcupine? What an unlovable child."

"I need to prove it."

Sasuke ignored her teasing and said in an unquestionable tone, "Before we talk about Bankai, let me see your magnanimity."

"Capacity?"

Yoruichi chuckled softly, a hint of understanding in her voice. "Alright, since my lovely student has a request, I'll naturally grant it."

She slowly stood up and stretched her wrists and ankles.

"Let's use the white-handed fighting technique you just learned from Urahara a few days ago."

She tilted her head, her golden eyes gleaming with confidence. "If you can touch me and cause even the slightest injury, you win."

"..."

It's that feeling of being looked down upon again.

Sasuke's eyes turned completely cold, and he stopped uttering any more nonsense.

He leaped out of the hot spring pool and with a casual wave of his hand, all the water droplets on his body evaporated.

After getting dressed, he walked out of the hot spring step by step and headed towards the open space, his aura rising steadily throughout the process.

With his center of gravity lowered, his feet slid silently across the damp rocks, his whole body like a fully drawn bow.

The bowstring was released in the next instant!

Sasuke's figure transformed into a blurry black line, instantly rushing in front of Yoruichi and delivering a powerful punch imbued with spiritual pressure, aimed straight at Yoruichi's face.

This was a technique he learned from Urahara, pure and direct.

However, Yoruichi remained completely unmoved in the face of this attack.

He simply raised his right hand and gently met Sasuke's fist with his palm.

The moment the two made contact, Sasuke felt as if his fist had hit a ball of cotton, and was completely neutralized at an unbelievable angle.

Sasuke was terrified when his attack missed.

But his fighting instincts made him immediately change tactics, his left leg whipping across Yoruichi's lower body with a sharp whooshing sound.

Yoruichi, with her uncanny foresight, lightly touched the ground with her toes and floated back half a meter.

Immediately afterward, before Sasuke could retract his attack, Yoruichi's figure swayed slightly, instantly closing in on the gaping opening Sasuke had created due to his attack.

too fast!

Sasuke's pupils suddenly contracted, and he only saw a blur flash before his eyes.

Yoruichi's elbow struck Sasuke on the back of the neck with just the right amount of force.

"Well......"

Sasuke groaned, feeling a numbing sensation spread throughout his body, and the world began to spin before his eyes.

The body fell backward uncontrollably.

How could that be...?

Sasuke's mind went blank.

Urahara's hand-to-hand combat training... in his opinion, had already shown significant improvement, yet in front of this woman, he didn't even have a chance to react.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground, a hand reached out from the side and gently supported his shoulder.

Then, with a push, Sasuke's body fell backward onto the hot spring, splashing a small amount of water.

The hot spring pool was quiet again.

Sasuke floated on the hot spring, his eyes blankly staring at the simulated sky above.

He lost.

The defeat was swift and decisive; they didn't even manage to touch the hem of their opponent's clothes.

Yoruichi slowly walked to Sasuke's side, squatted down, and looked into his eyes, which were filled with resentment.

"Then, let me reintroduce myself."

She reached out her hand to Sasuke, a confident smile on her face befitting a strong person.

"Yoruichi Shihouin, former captain of the 2nd Division and former commander-in-chief of the Onmitsukido, will be your teacher from today onwards, responsible for guiding you in mastering Bankai."

She paused, her golden eyes narrowing slightly.

"Please guide me, my lovely...little disciple?"
