Uchiha Shisui was shocked beyond measure. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel·fire.net
Never had he imagined that his pride—his speed—would lose to Chiyu!
Yet he grit his teeth and continued pressing, trying to use his numbers advantage to gain the upper hand.
His swordsmanship immediately changed form, and the slashes of his blade morphed in an instant—transforming into a thousand variations!
It was as if more than ten Shisui clones were simultaneously using completely different sword styles!
In a single moment, it was dizzyingly complex. For ordinary ninja, all they could see was countless phantasms chasing after that single streak of lightning—beyond that, they couldn't make anything out at all, nor could they comprehend it.
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, at best, could guess Shisui's strategy. But seeing the pair's moves in detail was completely impossible.
At that moment, everyone watching was drenched in cold sweat—including Uchiha Itachi.
"What level of battle is this?!"
Whether in the Anbu, Root, or the Police Force…everyone was deeply shaken and awestruck!
Even Uchiha Fugaku was stunned.
"They've reached such a stage of power?
During this fierce duel:
Chiyu's Sharingan had already seen through all of Shisui's actions.
His every move, every swing—none escaped Chiyu's eye.
On top of that, for pure insight, there was nobody in this shinobi world who surpassed him.
Even more fearsome was that Chiyu had the reflexes to match that extraordinary perception!
With his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Chiyu had boosted more than just his speed. His attacks and defense, as well as his reaction time, were all dramatically activated by the lightning.
Almost subconsciously, Chiyu made the most precise and correct response to Shisui's every thrust.
His sword flowed like water amid the myriad flickering images of Shisui's body-flicker illusions, and that flash of lightning seemed to gain its own mind and vitality.
Within a single instant, Chiyu and Shisui had already exchanged dozens of moves.
Their twin blades clashed and interwove madly, bursting with dazzling sparks and an ongoing series of explosive clanging!
Shisui was both alarmed and frustrated:
In his Phantom Body Flicker technique, he'd fused in superb sword skills, multiplied into over a dozen images, shifting sword styles in a flurry—yet Chiyu countered them all?!
Even on the battlefield, confronted by an entire squad of foes, Shisui's Phantom Flicker alone was enough to break them. It was his trump card, and this was the first time he'd used it in earnest.
And yet… it still had no effect!
Furious, Shisui couldn't hold back. He let out a low roar, unleashing another ace up his sleeve:
Fire Release Nintaijutsu—
Uchiha-style "Sword-Leap Blaze"!
It combined his best Fire Release ninjutsu with swordsmanship, wielding intense fiery heat plus the unstoppable might of his blade!
In a flash, both of Shisui's lethal moves merged into one. Before onlookers' eyes, it was as if more than ten phantoms of Shisui flared with flaming sword-light!
Like fireworks exploding in splendor, like a sudden volcanic eruption!
Such a horrifying display left everyone watching slack-jawed.
Uchiha Fugaku murmured:
"I'd already be dead…"
Uchiha Yashiro by his side understood what he meant:
Had it been him, he would have died in an instant.
Even Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō went pale and sweaty.
At their current state, if Shisui unleashed that on them, they likely wouldn't survive either.
Chiyu still looked unhurried, wholly at ease.
In that moment, he at last revealed one of his killing techniques:
Lightning Release Nintaijutsu—
Blade of False Darkness!
Combined with his Lightning Release Chakra Mode, merging Nintaijutsu: Blade of False Darkness seamlessly into it, he formed a terrifying onslaught that even pressed back Shisui!
Shisui's Phantom Body Flicker plus Sword-Leap Blaze was formidable, but they were separate styles, not perfectly unified.
Whereas Chiyu's synergy—Lightning Release Chakra Mode and Blade of False Darkness—was a perfect union, like a tiger with wings!
When it exploded forth, he was like the god of thunder descending, lightning beasts roaring.
The arcs of electricity were like savagely sharp fangs, rending the void, cleaving the sky, and charging straight at Shisui in a fierce counterattack!
Shisui's new merged technique had yet to show its might, and it was already thoroughly suppressed by Chiyu!
"Wh-what is that power?!"
"It's completely overwhelming my Phantom Body Flicker and Sword-Leap Blaze?!"
At last, Shisui felt genuine fear, a terror never before experienced.
He roared in defiance, boosting his chakra and ocular energy again, brandishing that Sword-Leap Blaze like a firebird, shrieking in fury. He attempted to make Chiyu pay a price.
But Chiyu's speed outstripped his, and his dual-lightning synergy was more refined, combined with unparalleled insight…
In this contest of speed, strength, and technique, Chiyu already held absolute superiority!
Gradually, Chiyu took command of the duel.
Shisui, pinned under pressure, felt cold sweat on his forehead, increasingly anxious.
Not even once had Itachi seen Shisui so contained and outmaneuvered…
So wretched—it almost defied belief!
This was the strongest person in his eyes…
Could it really be that Uchiha Chiyu was…
…even scarier than Shisui?
With a cold laugh, Chiyu raised his power to the limit.
In the blink of an eye—
A rapid series of lightning blasts detonated.
In practically an instant, all of Shisui's dozen or so afterimages were shattered and flung away!
Shisui coughed up a mouthful of blood, and those illusions fully vanished—
Phantom Body Flicker… destroyed!
Itachi couldn't help crying out, nearly rushing forward to help.
Though Shisui's face was white as a sheet, he still grit his teeth and stopped Itachi.
"This is my fight with him.
No one is permitted to interfere."
Itachi had no choice but to stand down.
Lightning exploded again around him, and the Blade of False Darkness turned into a thunderous streak, slamming at Shisui.
But at that very second…
Shisui, ignoring the blood dripping from his lips, focused his eyes. Three tomoe whirled in his Sharingan, radiating a fearsome gleam. A potent ocular force surged forth; the tomoe shape changed into a windmill with four "blades":
Chiyu's devastating blow struck a point three feet before Shisui's chest, only to be forcibly halted—blocked—denied!
An enormous swirl of green chakra shot into the sky, then stabilized, solidifying into a towering figure like a martial deity. A skeletal chakra frame swiftly formed, soon cloaked in "flesh" and an impenetrable suit of chakra armor.
In an instant, no onlooker remained calm.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzō, Koharu, Homura, Uchiha Fugaku…
All stared in speechless shock, voices trembling:
"That… that's the legendary…
