"The Monster Strength Fist of Tsunade, one of the Sannin… are you Sora?" Uchiha Itachi asked, though his tone already carried certainty.
"Konoha rogue ninja Uchiha Itachi, it is a pleasure to meet you," Sora replied calmly.
Sora gently set Kurenai Yuhi down. At the same time, his pupils began glowing with a faint red light.
He did not dare to underestimate a gengutsu master like Itachi.
Unlike the opponents he had faced before, one mistake here could lead to being trapped in gengutsu or even killed instantly.
Uchiha Itachi's gengutsu was already stronger than Kurenai Yuhi's, and with the Sharingan—a Bloodline Limit that greatly amplified gengutsu—failing to go all out would simply be suicide.
"Be careful because his Sharingan is extremely dangerous," Kurenai Yuhi warned, though she still did not understand why Sora had appeared here so suddenly.
"Ordinary gengutsu will not work against me," Sora replied confidently. Even if his opponent was Uchiha Itachi, he still believed this.
"You are not a ninja of Konoha, so there is no need for you to interfere," Uchiha Itachi said coldly.
"Is Kakashi still planning to watch the show from the shadows?" Sora suddenly said while glancing toward the nearby forest.
"I accidentally lost my way and ended up here," Kakashi Hatake said as he stepped out from the trees.
Now that their side had the advantage, there was no reason for him to remain hidden.
"However, you two are rogue ninja, so since you are here, why not stay?"
"Haha, you want us to stay with just the few of you?" Kisame Hoshigaki laughed mockingly.
"What a shame because you are not the one I am interested in this time," Sora said while shaking his head.
He completely ignored Kisame and focused entirely on Uchiha Itachi.
"I once fought your younger brother, but his Sharingan was ridiculously weak and it completely disappointed me when compared to the reputation of a Bloodline Limit said to rival Wood Release.
You are one of the few remaining members of the Uchiha Clan and someone who has pushed the Sharingan to a terrifying level, so I hope you will not disappoint me."
"Since you insist on blocking my path, I have no choice but to deal with you as well," Itachi replied calmly.
Suddenly, Sora felt his body freeze in place as if invisible wedges had been driven through his limbs, preventing him from moving at all.
"So this is the power of the Sharingan… such powerful gengutsu, but—"
Sora's eyes flashed with red light.
Crack!
The gengutsu binding his body shattered instantly.
Uchiha Itachi's expression changed slightly as he clearly suffered the backlash of his broken gengutsu.
Even he had not expected the illusion created by his three-tomoe Sharingan to be broken so easily.
"Surprised?" Sora laughed.
Kurenai Yuhi stared at Sora in shock.
She had personally experienced Itachi's gengutsu earlier and knew how terrifying it was, yet Sora had not only resisted it but reflected it back.
In the short time since she last saw him, he had become far stronger again.
"I am indeed surprised," Uchiha Itachi admitted honestly.
"But if you think you can defeat me like this, you are being far too naive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Itachi's body suddenly exploded.
Sora immediately snorted coldly as a water wall appeared before him, blocking the explosion.
However, at that exact moment, Itachi suddenly appeared behind him and threw several shuriken directly at Sora's head.
Boom!
Sora's body also exploded instantly.
At the same time, a massive torrent of water surged forward and swallowed Uchiha Itachi.
"Their hand seal speed is unbelievably fast," Kurenai Yuhi said in astonishment.
"Strange… it almost looks like Sora predicted Itachi's technique and returned it back at him. He is growing far too quickly. Even I might not be able to defeat him now."
"Did you notice his eyes?" Kakashi Hatake asked quietly. He had clearly seen Sora's pupils turning blood-red.
"That must be his Bloodline Limit."
"I truly did not expect you to counterattack after I had already seen through your move," Uchiha Itachi said as he stood calmly on the surface of the water.
His Sharingan eyes were filled with genuine surprise.
He had clearly read Sora's movements and ninjutsu in advance, yet Sora had still managed to counter him.
"In the minds of you Uchiha clan members, you probably believe that only the Sharingan can rival the Sharingan," Sora said calmly.
"But unfortunately, I have never believed that. If that were truly the case, then the strongest person in history would not have been Senju Hashirama but Uchiha Madara.
I will not deny that the Sharingan is powerful, but calling it the strongest Bloodline Limit is nothing more than a dream.
Even gods would not dare claim to be the strongest, so how can a clan that was nearly wiped out claim such a title?
If the Uchiha Clan was truly the strongest, it would not have been exterminated."
Sora looked directly at Itachi while speaking.
Members of the Uchiha Clan were often extremely arrogant, believing the Sharingan to be invincible.
In their eyes, heaven came first, earth came second, and they themselves came third.
Even the Senju Clan had never been so arrogant.
What right did a clan repeatedly suppressed by the Senju Clan have to act so proud?
"I hope you will still be able to say those words a moment later," Uchiha Itachi replied expressionlessly.
However, those who knew him well would recognize the anger hidden beneath his calm demeanor.
After all, he was still a member of the Uchiha Clan and would never allow anyone to insult it.
"That depends entirely on your ability," Sora said as he instantly entered his Rampage state.
Whoosh!
A powerful burst of air erupted as Sora shot forward and threw a devastating punch toward Uchiha Itachi.
Even Itachi would not dare engage in close combat with someone who had mastered Tsunade's Monster Strength Fist.
"He is even faster now… is this your trump card?" Itachi said calmly while forming hand seals instantly.
"But it is meaningless before the Sharingan."
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A massive water dragon rose from the river and rushed directly toward Sora.
"This level of Water Release is useless against me," Sora said as he punched forward.
The massive water dragon exploded instantly under the force of his Monster Strength.
Sora was now far stronger than before and had completely mastered the Monster Strength Fist, making his attacks terrifying.
A technique like that could not even withstand a single punch from him.
"Monster Strength truly is troublesome," Itachi admitted calmly.
"But—Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Itachi suddenly appeared behind Sora and launched a massive fireball that instantly engulfed him.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
At the same time, another water dragon suddenly appeared behind Itachi and slammed him away violently.
However, Itachi's body instantly transformed into countless crows before reforming again nearby.
"So it was not coincidence," Itachi said slowly.
"You possess an ability similar to the Sharingan that allows you to see through your opponent's movements."
"What?" Kisame exclaimed in shock.
"He actually has an ability like the Sharingan?"
"Is it your eyes?" Itachi asked while staring directly into Sora's glowing pupils.
"Wrong," Sora said as he shook his head slightly.
"It is simply my battle instinct."
