"I... will never forgive you!"
Sarutobi Sasuke spoke resentfully, his eyes filled with undisguised killing intent.
With a "bang," white smoke billowed from a scroll. He hoisted a giant Windmill Shuriken and threw it at Shin'yu, then formed hand seals.
"Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"
Explosions echoed one after another as a dense swarm of Windmill Shuriken surrounded Shin'yu, blocking all his escape routes.
Shin'yu expressionlessly swung his scythe, its cold light flashing repeatedly, forming an impenetrable defensive net. Sparks flew as the Windmill Shuriken that invaded were all dismembered, shattering into scrap metal on the ground.
That wasn't the end of it. He flicked his wrist, and the scythe slashed back at Sarutobi Sasuke against the tide!
Sarutobi Sasuke quickly retreated. With a soft "shh," the blade emitted a thin, cicada-wing-like light blade!
"What!" His pupils shrank. Caught off guard, his defending Kunai was cut in two, and his cheek was also slashed.
Shin'yu retracted his scythe, deftly twirling it to shake off all the blood from the blade.
"Tsk, didn't Lord Tobirama share information with you?" he feigned confusion. "This move is called 'Autumn Dew on Leaves.' It's strange; he's clearly seen it before."
The answer he received was a surging fire dragon!
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
Shin'yu's lips curled up. His body swayed, leaving an afterimage in place, easily dodging the fire dragon. In the swaying rain, a dozen or so images appeared outside the encirclement.
Each one was identical to Shin'yu, each holding a scythe. A dozen black-haired youths surrounded the Hidden Leaf Village Ninja.
A dozen scythes danced together, the icy blue edge rippling in the air.
Apart from Sarutobi Sasuke, the other four were immediately thrown into chaos, frantically fighting against a dozen Shin'yu. Blades flashed wildly, and Ninjutsu bombarded them, but when they hit those figures, they found they were just phantoms!
They hadn't even touched the hem of the real Shin'yu's clothes.
Just then, an unexpected change occurred. Two Shin'yu simultaneously plunged their scythes into the chests of two Hidden Leaf Village Ninja. Blood splattered, and the two bodies were bisected in the air.
Finally, all the shadows merged into one, leaving only one Shin'yu in place.
"Water Style: Water Fang Bullet!"
He formed a single hand seal, using the scythe as a guide. Water flowed and compressed into a thin water blade on the blade, then slashed out vertically with a "swoosh!"
The water blade was extremely fast, invisible in the heavy rain. Sarutobi Sasuke only felt the rain in front of him distort slightly for a moment before he suddenly realized what was happening and belatedly yanked his companion's shoulder.
The crescent-shaped water blade flashed through the air, instantly dyeing it with a pinkish-red bloodline.
Sarutobi Sasuke stared blankly at the arm in his hand. His companion had been split in two by this move, organs spilling out, the water surface beneath his feet a bloody red.
"Ahhhhh!"
He charged towards Shin'yu like a madman, flicking his wrist to throw countless Shuriken.
However, playing Shuriken in front of an Uchiha was like showing off with a broadsword in front of Guan Gong. Shin'yu didn't even bother to look, easily knocking down all the Shuriken just by listening to the sounds, but Sarutobi Sasuke also took the opportunity to get close.
The Sarutobi family's Taijutsu was quite good. Shin'yu couldn't take him down for a while, so he pretended to sell an opening. Sarutobi Sasuke took the bait, and a fierce blade cut into the center line. With a "puff" sound, Shin'yu's right arm was cut off at the shoulder, and the scythe clattered to the ground!
Shin'yu's fingers gently hooked, and dozens of transparent, thin threads emerged from the rain, instantly locking Sarutobi Sasuke's body in place.
"Autumn Dew on Leaves!"
Shin'yu flicked his left hand with extreme speed, and a thin Chakra Blade emerged from his palm, aiming for a fatal strike to the throat!
"Bang!"
The smoke dissipated, and Sarutobi Sasuke in front of him had turned into a wooden log.
"Substitution?" Shin'yu's reaction was also incredibly fast. The moment the smoke appeared, he used the blood on his right arm to form a hand seal and pressed it onto the ground.
"Summoning Technique!!"
An ink-colored magic circle spread out, and accompanied by surging Chakra, a giant cat emerged from the billowing smoke. The ground directly cracked, and a male figure was sent flying far away by the shockwave.
Sarutobi Sasuke wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at the suddenly appearing giant cat, his eyes filled with solemnity, "Monster Cat?"
Monster Cat—Bochi, a legendary spirit cat, is the only Ninja Cat with an enormous size in the cat shrine. According to the Uchiha clan's information, Bochi has lived for a long time and has already developed extraordinary intelligence. It has even mastered the legendary Sage Art, a divine beast that has not formed a contract with anyone for hundreds of years.
But now, it was summoned just like that and appeared before his eyes!
The Monster Cat's entire body was a ghostly blue. It had a pair of huge, bronze-colored vertical pupils, and its beautiful fur was dreamlike and constantly changing patterns. Wisps of ethereal black mist emanated from its body at all times, eerie and hazy.
Shin'yu stood on the cat's head, looking down at Sarutobi Sasuke from afar, stroking his chin with his only remaining left hand.
"I was careless. I didn't expect that Hidden Leaf Village would have such a tricky existence besides Tobirama."
"Meow~" The giant cat Bochi spoke in human language, "Three million."
"Deal... done!" A hint of subtle heartache flashed across Shin'yu's face, and he pointed at Sarutobi Sasuke, "Kill him for me."
Bochi's eyes rolled, revealing human-like shrewdness, "Gotta add money."
"How much more?"
"Two million."
"Forget it, then just restrain him, don't let him disturb me." Shin'yu chose to compromise.
"Fifty0 thousand."
"Okay!" Shin'yu nodded heavily.
He flipped over and landed, and the big cat stepped out at the same time, rushing towards Sarutobi Sasuke in the distance.
"Don't underestimate me!" Sarutobi Sasuke's eyes widened, his hands flashed, and he slammed them on the ground, "Summoning Technique! Appear! Monkey King Enma!"
A white line extended along the water surface, instantly erupting into a sky full of white smoke. A huge ape broke through the smoke and fought with Bochi.
Sarutobi Sasuke looked at Shin'yu, making a gesture to chase, but the Monster Cat Bochi in front of him suddenly puffed up a breath, its body floated lightly into the air, blocking him and Monkey King Enma together.
"Don't think about escaping." Bochi said.
"Then let me see what magical power the legendary Monster Cat has!"
Sarutobi Sasuke raised his hand high in the distance, "Enma, Adamantine Staff!"
"Transform!" Enma gave a low shout, transforming into a staff in a cloud of thick white smoke and falling into Sarutobi Sasuke's hand.
He swung the staff horizontally, and the Adamantine Staff became thicker out of thin air, smashing Bochi's round belly into powder with a "poof".
"What?" Sasuke's eyes widened, the feeling was strange, like hitting a balloon.
Bochi "Meow'd" once, its entire body exploding into a ghostly blue mist, leaving only its head floating in the air, condensed and not dispersing. It stirred up a dark tornado, trapping the caught-off-guard Sarutobi Sasuke in place.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Bochi's cat head floated in the air as if weightless, and the sound of blunt objects striking echoed from the mist, but it made a comfortable purring sound, its expression looking very punchable.
Shin'yu smiled leisurely, the pattern in his pupils changing. The moment the Mangekyo pattern appeared, his right arm returned to normal.
Suddenly, his expression froze slightly, as he sensed a familiar yet unfamiliar soul.
