Chapter 246: Uchiha Sasuke: Fortunately, You haven’t Changed

The Ancient Dragon was very fast.

And they arrived at their destination.

Uehara looked down at the barren land. He looked at Itachi and Sasuke and said, “Itachi-san, Sasuke, do you need our help to turn this place into a flat ground? It will be fair.”

“There’s no need.”

Itachi shook his head and stood up from the ancient dragon. His voice was somewhat depressed as he said, “This used to be a Hideout built by our Uchiha clan. Now, let it witness the final fate of our clan!”

“Then, shall we help reinforce it? To prevent you from destroying it?”

After Uehara finished speaking, he turned around and looked at everyone present. He loudly said, “Which Senpai here is good at earth ninjutsu…”

“No need.”

Itachi hurriedly interrupted Uehara. He felt that there was something wrong with Uehara’s brain. Why did he have to interfere in everything?

Itachi sighed in his heart. Looking at Uehara’s puzzled gaze, he softly explained, “Today, Sasuke and I are destined to have one person die here. Then let this stronghold be his burial place!”

“… Yes.”

Sasuke hurriedly nodded.

Uehara waved his hand and controlled the Ancient Dragon to descend. He softly called out to Akatsuki and the audience, “Then let’s go in and find a suitable location!”

Itachi, “…”

Sasuke, “…”

Under the speechless gazes of the Uchiha brothers, this group of Akatsuki’s members entered Uchiha’s Hideout, each choosing a suitable spot to watch.

Pain sat on the stone chair of Uchiha’s Hideout. After watching Itachi and Sasuke enter, he remembered his responsibility as the host.

Tap…

Tap… Tap… Tap…

Pain gently tapped his finger on the stone chair and watched as Itachi and Sasuke stopped in their tracks. His voice suddenly became cold.

“We can start now…”

Before Pain could finish speaking, Sasuke had already pulled out his ninja blade and slashed at Itachi who was beside him!

With just one slash, he cut open Itachi’s chest!

The corners of Sasuke’s mouth curled up as he stared at Itachi who was lying on the ground. Just as he was about to say something, a cry of surprise interrupted his thoughts.

“Wow…”

Deidara was shocked by this slash. He never concealed himself.

The others immediately looked at Deidara with great dissatisfaction, thinking that this guy really destroyed the murderous atmosphere on the scene.

But there was another person who destroyed the atmosphere even more.

Clap Clap Clap…

Uehara slowly stretched out his hands to clap. Under the speechless gazes of the crowd, he raised his palm and praised, “Whether it is Sasuke’s sharp blade or Itachi-san’s Crow Substitute, they are all worthy of us applauding for them, right?”

“…”

Everyone present looked at each other for a while.

It seemed that what Uehara said was a little reasonable. Just that one slash from Sasuke was enough to be called one of the few Kenjutsu experts in the Ninja World!

The tide-like applause resounded throughout the entire Uchiha Hideout.

“…”

Sasuke’s face darkened.

Akatsuki really dared to clap when others were fighting to the death!

Itachi, who was on the ground, turned into a crow and disappeared. He condensed the appearance of Itachi on the other side. His face was very calm. Obviously, Itachi had a good psychological quality. No matter how embarrassed he was, he would not show it.

In the next moment, Itachi closed his fingers!

Sasuke did not care about the awkwardness, he threw out a huge Shuriken and covered it with Chidori to break Itachi’s hand seal.

Unexpectedly, the Sharingan in Itachi’s eyes crazily rotated!

“Tsukuyomi!”

In the next second, Tsukuyomi hit Sasuke, and the will of the Uchiha brothers entered Tsukuyomi’s space at the same time!

The outcome of the genjutsu competition was not something that the people present could see.

Everyone immediately began to discuss word by word. Unfortunately, the people present were basically not very good at playing with illusion techniques. They did not even understand the principle of Tsukuyomi.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Sasuke fell to one knee on the ground!

Obviously, this illusion technique competition in Tsukuyomi’s space had already ended. Uehara hooked the corner of his mouth. In Tsukuyomi’s space, the information about the Mangekyo Sharingan that Itachi wanted to reveal had already been leaked to his younger brother, right?

“Sasuke, you have really grown up!”

On the other side, Itachi fell to the ground, tightly stroking his eyes, “You can actually crack my Tsukuyomi?”

“Originally, I found a way to crack Tsukuyomi, but this time Tsukuyomi is too rough, right? “

Sasuke waved his ninja blade and stood up. He pointed at the group of people and said, “Itachi, your illusion technique is indeed so realistic that it is difficult to distinguish, but you forgot, that group of guys created in Tsukuyomi’s space is too quiet!

Whether it is the story of Obito, the legendary Madara, or our clan with the cursed Mangekyo Sharingan, how can those guys in Tsukuyomi’s space still sit there as if nothing happened! “

“So it was their existence that revealed a flaw…”

Itachi nodded slowly. He stood up and said softly, “I didn’t expect that the illusion would reveal a flaw because there were too many spectators today. There is nothing I can do!”

“However, thank you for telling me.”

Sasuke stretched out his ninja blade and waved it at Itachi, “I will accept your pair of eyes!”

A bolt of lightning suddenly wrapped around Sasuke’s ninja blade!

It was his proud ninjutsu, Chidori Kōken(Chidori Light Sword)!

Itachi frowned and reached out to grab Sasuke’s wrist. The two of them had a wonderful physical exchange!

Hidan looked at the battle between the Uchiha brothers and scratched his head. He looked at the others and asked, “What nonsense are they talking about? Why don’t I understand? Did anyone understand?”

“Just shut up.”

Kakuzu looked at his teammates with disgust.

Deidara also looked at Hidan with disgust, but he still explained, “When Itachi and Sasuke were fighting in the illusion, they seemed to have said something extraordinary. However, we were too quiet in the illusion created by Itachi, so Itachi exposed a flaw. Do you understand? Idiot!”

“Bastard! I will kill you!”

“All of you shut up!”

The quality of the audience in Akatsuki’s organization was really not high.

Sasuke and Itachi did not care about them. The two brothers also started to fight, and they began to release fire ninjutsu in this area!

“Katon, Gōkakyū no Jutsu(Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)!”

The two people’s fireball technique instantly rose the temperature of this space!

Akatsuki, who was in the audience, finally felt that this place was a little unsafe. After all, these two desperate fellows could not be bothered to reduce their ninjutsu power!

Under the leadership of Uehara, the crowd began to go out of the hideout and re-entered the sky VIP audience of the Ancient Dragon.

This action was very wise.

A moment later, Itachi was beaten out of the hideout!

Soon, the entire hideout was on the verge of collapse from their clash of fire!

Deidara looked at the fireball on the ground in surprise, “Is Sasuke actually so powerful? His attainments in fire ninjutsu actually surpassed that guy?”

“Hehe…”

Kisame smiled but did not answer.

If Deidara personally went down to experience it, Itachi would definitely let Deidara know what it meant to have six seals in one second and what it meant to be the eldest son of the Fire Ninjutsu World.

“Amaterasu!”

A fierce shout sounded from the ground!

The entire earth was instantly surrounded by black flames. This was precisely Itachi’s Mangekyo Sharingan, Amaterasu. This kind of pitch-black flame could burn everything!

Unfortunately, Sasuke seemed to have been prepared for Amaterasu. He suddenly took out a scroll, closed his palm, and shouted in a low voice, “Fūka Hōin (Fire Sealing Method)”

Countless black flames that were surging in the surroundings were absorbed by him with his seal!

A hint of surprise appeared on White Zetsu’s face, “How is this possible? Sasuke has already prepared Amaterasu’s breaking method?”

Black Zetsu said in a gloomy voice, “Even if it is a Mangekyo, it is essentially only fire and yin attribute chakra. Sasuke should have used this point. After all, Sasuke is also a genius of the Uchiha clan. If he had been prepared, it is indeed possible to develop a method to deal with Amaterasu…”

“…”

When Uehara saw Sasuke seal Amaterasu with a fire sealing method, he couldn’t help but look at Kisame. What was going on?

This technique should be Jiraiya’s, right?

In the next moment, someone revealed the truth.

After Sasuke completed the seal on Amaterasu, a crazy smile appeared on his face, “Itachi! Last year, when you found out that your fire ninjutsu was not as powerful as my fire ninjutsu, you secretly studied this seal…

Originally, this move should be used to seal my fire ninjutsu right? You didn’t expect that today I would learn to use it against you, right? “

“I really didn’t think about it.

Itachi slowly shook his head and said in a low voice, “Sasuke, you have indeed grown a lot in the past few years! It is really beyond my imagination…”

On the Ancient Dragon.

Kisame shook his head slightly, revealing a meaningful smile on his face, “When we met Jiraiya, one of Konoha Sannin, Itachi-san’s Amaterasu seemed to have been sealed by him. Itachi-san researched this sealing technique himself, but he didn’t expect that Sasuke would secretly learn it…”

Deidara laughed as he looked at the battle on the ground, “Does it backfire? Itachi only took care of his younger brother to practice, but he didn’t expect that his technique was also secretly learned by Sasuke, a little guy who waits for revenge, right?”

“…”

Uehara was speechless.

Originally, Uehara thought that this guy Itachi might release some water, but he didn’t expect that he wasn’t going easy on him anymore, but directly releasing four big oceans!

Because Sasuke had always been by his side, so Itachi could secretly let Sasuke copy any ninjutsu.

This guy Itachi actually developed a method to secretly teach Sasuke that target Amaterasu. Was he afraid that his younger brother would not be able to kill him?

Uehara and Kisame could see it.

The others only felt that this battle was full of twists and turns. Whenever Itachi had the upper hand, Sasuke would reverse the situation.

Itachi used his own strength and strange eye techniques to suppress Sasuke, but Sasuke would always rely on techniques that target Itachi, to successfully turn the tables.

Sasori could not help but sigh in a low voice, “Is Sasuke’s will to take revenge so strong? He actually gathered Itachi’s information so well?”

“That’s right!”

Kisame chuckled and revealed an extremely ugly smile, “I’ve seen everything in the past few years! This little brat, Sasuke, has never relaxed in order to kill Itachi-san!”

The battle on the ground was about to end.

Itachi’s strongest Mangekyo Sharingan, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi did not have any results, and his fire ninjutsu was also unable to compare with Sasuke, so his defeat was already set in stone.

Sasuke stood at a high place, looking down at Itachi who already had no trump cards, and coldly said, “Itachi, I have seen everything about you with this pair of Sharingan, this is your place of burial!”

Now, he wanted to bury this sinful elder brother in this place, and pay tribute to the clansmen he slaughtered!

It began to rain in the sky.

Sasuke looked up at the rain in the sky and let them wash his face. He slowly stretched out his palm to welcome the baptism of the rain.

Itachi covered his lips and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He stood up and looked at Sasuke, his eyebrows slightly curved.

“Itachi, you don’t have much chakra, do you?”

Sasuke looked down at Itachi and whispered, “I have clearly calculated and have been practicing the battle between us for countless days and nights, but you have never put me in your eyes. Before you die, do you have any last words?”

“Sasuke.”

The smile on Itachi’s face became more and more intense. His voice was as gentle as ever, “It’s too early to say these things now… Do you know why I never cared about your revenge?”

“What?”

Sasuke raised his eyebrows.

“Because in front of this Ninjutsu, everything you work hard for is meaningless.”

Itachi stretched out his palm to touch his eyes, and said in a low voice, “Mangekyo Sharingan is not as simple as you think. When you obtain Mangekyo Sharingan, you just need to work hard to guide out the eye power within it…

When you guide the power of Mangekyo Sharingan, you will awaken an ultimate eye technique, which can turn invisible eye power into tangible things…

And this tangible thing, our Uchiha clan has a very frightening name in the records of Mangekyo Sharingan, its name is…

Susanoo!”

In the next moment, a red skeleton floated up from the body of Itachi, gradually forming a red giant and slowly enveloping Itachi’s body!

At the moment when everyone including Sasuke and Akatsuki looked at the appearance of Susanoo, they couldn’t help but reveal a shocked expression. Itachi looked at Sasuke through Susanoo, and his face was still very calm.

“It is precisely because I awakened the ultimate eye technique of Mangekyo Sharingan, Susanoo, that is why I have never been on guard against you all these years. With just three tomoe Sharingan, how could you escape the sight of Mangekyo Sharingan?

The corner of Itachi’s mouth slightly hooked up, revealing a smile as if victory was within his grasp, “Even if you secretly learn countless ninjutsu from me, it doesn’t matter, because in front of Susanoo, everything is meaningless…”

“…”

Sasuke fell into silence.

His face began to drip with sweat along the rain.

Sasuke looked at Itachi in the red Susanoo, and suddenly revealed a smile on his face, “In fact, all these years, I have always thought about one thing. That is you will deliberately die under my hands…”

Sasuke slowly loosened his ninja blade, and continued with a light smile, “So every time I secretly copy your ninjutsu, I will feel a little guilty, because I can not judge what kind of brother I will kill at that time. Perhaps I may not even be able to do it, because victory may come too easily.”

Sasuke slowly closed his palm and calmly made his own hand seal. He continued softly, “Now, I won’t have this burden anymore. You are still the arrogant Itachi that thinks everything is under your control.”

Sasuke raised his head again and looked up at the dancing lightning in the sky. He let the rain and sweat flow on his face, “Itachi, this is also very good. Because in this case, when I kill you, I don’t need to care.”

Thunder danced in the sky.

In the next moment, a huge lightning beast jumped out from the cloud’s layer!

Sasuke’s finger suddenly pointed towards the red-colored Susanoo on the ground, guiding the lightning beast in the sky to descend, then coldly shouted, “Disappear along with the thunder! Itachi, carry your arrogance in the afterlife!”
