Ethan didn't dodge the eagle's attack, so the eagle thought he was dead.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
The eagle turned around, ready to continue sleeping, but then it heard clapping from behind.
When it looked back, it saw the human—barely the size of its finger—advancing toward it, completely unharmed.
Since the eagle was experienced, it wasn't too surprised. It immediately launched another attack.
Ethan, who had used Kamui for about a minute, felt a tingling in his eye, but the sensation quickly vanished.
He counterattacked the eagle, and a terrifying clash erupted between Ethan's Zanpakutō and the eagle's beak.
Ethan's Ryatsu was slightly below a Captain's level, but with Haki, he could push himself a little beyond that.
With each swing of his Zanpakutō, Ethan tore open slashes at least fifty meters long.
And every time the eagle struck with its beak, it created massive cracks in the ground—even larger than Ethan's.
After more than twelve devastating exchanges, Ethan used Kenbunshoku Haki, Busoshoku Haki, and Haoshoku Haki.
With the Sharingan and Kamui, he avoided otherwise unavoidable strikes, keeping himself unharmed—unlike the eagle.
The eagle was covered in wounds and clearly in bad condition, yet it continued to fight with all its strength.

[ Ding! The host has entered a state of total concentration. He can now cut Steel without using energy. ]
As Ethan struck with full force, his attack sliced through the eagle's left wing.
Excitement lit up his face as he fought, so much that he didn't even notice the System's notification.
Gradually, the thrill began to fade, and Ethan regained his composure after being lost in the joy of battle.
"So, what do you think when you're close to death, little chick?" he taunted.
The eagle was offended by Ethan's tone, even though it didn't fully understand his words.
Driven by rage and survival instinct, it attacked wildly—like any creature that simply refuses to die.
"I'm bored. You can die in peace," Ethan said with contempt. His eyes swirled, and in an instant, the eagle's head vanished completely.
It was Obito's eye ability. Normally, this attack wouldn't have worked on such a fast and sharp eagle, but now, covered in wounds and blinded by anger, it was vulnerable.
"Obito's offensive ability really consumes a lot of chakra… but it's worth every drop I've got."

"Cool. This is the first time I've fought a real creature instead of just shadow clones."
" I'm really afraid that I'm addicted to this feeling of fighting. "
"System, Do battles always give me half the kill points? Or is it just coincidence?"
[ As you see, host: combat gives half the points of a kill. Killing is harder, so it grants more. That's why fighting gives fewer points. ]
"Got it. Let me recover my energy first, then I'll continue my journey out of this gloomy forest," Ethan said in a calm voice.
He began restoring his energy as the sun slowly set.
"Damn! Even if it gets dark, I'm not staying here a second longer."
When Ethan opened his eyes again, the forest was completely dark.
He sprinted toward the exit. The deeper zones of the forest contained stronger monsters, so finding the way out wasn't too hard.
"Finally… my adventure begins!" Ethan said, running like a ninja, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
