Chapter 83 Main Mission 6: The Brothers’ Showdown Begins

Sasuke practiced the magic of Ryuchi Cave, and made up for his own shortcoming of low chakra by absorbing natural energy to synthesize magic chakra.

In addition, after entering the Sage Mode, Sasuke has mastered a skill called Inorganic Reincarnation. Using Inorganic Reincarnation, he can bring dead objects in the environment back to life and attack his opponents.

Sasuke and Naruto had another two-on-two match with Shingon and Senju Hashirama.

This time, when the two used Susanoo and Nine-Tails Mode, they also entered Sage Mode at the same time. With the double buffs stacked, Hashirama in the state of Yomiuri Tensei and Shingon's wooden man could no longer suppress the two of them.

Zhenyan felt that the two of them could graduate.

Sasuke, who has learned a lot, has only one unfulfilled wish. Shingon knows what Sasuke is thinking, and he has already made arrangements while Sasuke is practicing the magic.

Outside of Konoha Village, there is an Uchiha stronghold in the Land of Fire. Itachi thinks that place is very suitable to meet Sasuke, and Shingon also thinks it is a good place.

At this time, Sasuke was already ready. Shingon asked Hakuzetsu to pass a message to the shadow clone who was acting as a temporary worker in the Akatsuki organization, asking the shadow clone to take Itachi to the Uchiha base, and he and Sasuke, as the original body, would also rush over.

Zhenyan went to the base in advance and saw the Flying Thunder God mark left there. Originally, he wanted to use it for teleportation when gathering, but when the day really came, Zhenyan suddenly changed his mind.

Just like when he sent Sasuke to Orochimaru's base, Shingon and Sasuke had another ninja run.

Sasuke must be in a bad mood, and this journey is just a good opportunity for him to sort out his thoughts.

As for Shadow Clone and Itachi, if they use teleportation, just let them wait for a while.

What Shingo didn't know was that the Shadow Clone and Itachi didn't use the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to teleport either.

"I haven't finished reading this book yet." Itachi took out "The Legend of Perseverance" and said to Mana's shadow clone. He wanted to finish reading the book on the way.

How to read a book on the road? Shadow clone did not ask this question, he just smiled and said: "Then let the original body and Sasuke wait for a while."

Both parties gave up on quick teleportation and used the most traditional ninja run to head towards their destination.

The Rain Country is to the west of the Fire Country. The shadow clone and Itachi are rushing from west to east, while the original body and Sasuke are rushing from east to west. The actions of both sides are very much like a two-way rush, but the result of this rush is a fateful duel.

The Uchiha base in the Land of Fire is located in a jungle. Due to the Uchiha clan extermination incident, this base has now been abandoned.

The building engraved with the Uchiha clan emblem was unmaintained, like an ancient ruin forgotten in time.

And right in front of the ruins, the two sides met.

On one side are Itachi and Manga's shadow clones, both of whom are wearing the uniforms of the Akatsuki organization. Manga's shadow clone is wearing a vortex mask and a ponytail because he is going to play the role of a temporary worker.

On the other side were Sasuke and Shingon, both wearing Uchiha uniforms. Shingon did not do any disguise because he believed in the comic author's angle of capture. The comic author would make him a black mass and manually blur him out.

Afterwards, Zhenyan went to the comics forum to confirm, and the comic author did not disappoint him.

This part of the comic begins when the four of them meet. The background of the first picture is a Uchiha building with mottled traces in the jungle. The four people stand opposite each other in front of the building. In the details, the hair and hems of the four people are blown by the wind, and the leaves are falling in the air...

Although they haven't fought yet, a feeling of swordplay has been created.

The situation in reality is similar...

In addition to having Itachi and Sasuke duel, Shingon also wanted to let the comic readers know that the Black Shadow and the temporary workers of the Akatsuki organization are incompatible, so the first sentence he said was full of gunpowder: "You are so late, are you stage fright?"

"We were afraid that if we came too hastily, we would scare you away." The shadow clone counterattacked, "On the contrary, you are the ones who are so hesitant. Aren't you trying to escape in the middle of the battle?"

"That's the time you need to prepare." Shinon looked at Sasuke who was following him, and he said confidently, "Are you ready to lose to us?"

The shadow clone also looked at Itachi beside him, and said in a tone even more arrogant than the real words: "You probably don't know Itachi's record. Have you ever heard of fighting seven people alone?"

"You also underestimated Sasuke's education. Do you know where Sasuke's master came from?" Zhenyan was full of confidence. Sasuke was not only his successor in mouth-to-mouth skills, but also a disciple of Konoha's technician and three ninjas, a graduate of the Three Kage tutoring class, and a master of the Ryuchidong Senjutsu.

"No matter how high the education is, it is not as good as work experience. Itachi was born in the Anbu, and Sasuke is still a Genin, right?" The shadow clone knows where its own advantages lie, and seizes the opponent's weaknesses to attack.

"Sasuke is more than just a Genin." Shingen said, "Sasuke is now also a rebel ninja, and in the ninja world, every rebel ninja has the strength to challenge the Kage level."

"Itachi has been a rebel ninja for eight years. If I remember correctly, Sasuke has been a rebel for less than three years." The shadow clone quickly refuted.

"For a talented ninja, three years is enough." With talent and hard work, Shingo believes that Sasuke will win. "I hope you can still be so confident after seeing Sasuke's strength."

"I'm telling you what I meant to you. I hope that after you see Itachi's true strength, you won't be tempted to interfere with the fight between the two of us." The shadow clone warned, "I'm not a pushover!"

"That's what I wanted to say. If you dare to take action, don't blame me for being rude!" Shingon said and looked at Sasuke.

"Go ahead, Sasuke," Shingon encouraged, "I'll help you stop this guy."

"Go ahead, Itachi." The shadow clone followed closely, "I won't let this guy interfere with your fight."

Sasuke: “…………”

Itachi: “…………”

Shingon and his shadow clones had already retreated to the sidelines to watch the fight, while Sasuke and Itachi were still a little slow to react.

Itachi had never expected that the truth would have a disagreement with his shadow clone, and that they would even swear at each other...

As for Sasuke, since Manabu was right next to him, he didn't expect that the person opposite him was also Manabu. He was surprised that Itachi would choose such a talkative person as a teammate...

Now that the two talkative people have left, the atmosphere has suddenly become quiet.

Itachi looked at Sasuke quietly. Before coming, he had actually prepared what he wanted to say, but when he really met the person, he found that simple words could not fill the missing gap between him and Sasuke.

Sasuke had calmed down on the way here, but after seeing Itachi, his emotions became uncontrollable and fluctuated. Thanks to the communication between Mana and the Shadow Clone just now, he had time to calm down.

Face to face with Itachi, Sasuke was the first to ask the doubts that had been weighing on his mind for many years: "Why did you leave the village? Is the Uchiha incident related to you?"

"You've grown up, Sasuke." Itachi looked at Sasuke with an imperceptible relief in his eyes.

"Answer my question." Sasuke just wanted to know the truth at this moment.

"If you want to know the answer, fight me with all your strength." Itachi said. He also wanted to know how much his younger brother had grown.

"I will defeat you." Sasuke opened his Mangekyō Sharingan in the blink of an eye.

Itachi also opened the Three Magatama Sharingan. He observed Sasuke's movements and prepared to respond according to Sasuke's attack. However, Sasuke did not attack immediately. Sasuke also painted a circle of purple eye shadow outside the Mangekyō Sharingan...

With his Sharingan open, Itachi clearly caught Sasuke's changes. He couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "You..."

Before Itachi could finish his words, the ground beneath his feet suddenly came alive, produced many spikes, and attacked him.

Itachi leaped into the air, and Sasuke seemed to have predicted Itachi's move. He had already completed the hand seal and released the Great Fireball Jutsu at Itachi in the air.

Itachi, who was rich in combat experience, formed a seal the moment he jumped up, and facing Sasuke's Great Fireball, he also used the same Great Fireball.

Flames collided, steam rose, and Itachi's figure disappeared from Sasuke's sight. But Sasuke was not at all panicked. He turned around and threw several shurikens behind him.

In Sage Mode, perception ability will also be enhanced, and Itachi's position is always within Sasuke's perception.

Itachi used the same shurikens to block Sasuke's attack and fell back to the ground. He looked at Sasuke with a slight smile on his face. Sasuke's growth had exceeded his expectations.

Purple Susanoo armor began to appear around Sasuke's body. He looked at the three magatama in Itachi's eyes and warned him, "If you don't use your full strength, you will lose here."

Itachi was indeed serious. The three magatama in his eyes turned into the shape of a Mangekyo, and he used Susanoo just like Sasuke.

In order to avoid being affected, Mana and Shadow Clone retreated a distance to watch the battle. When the Purple Gundam Warrior and the Red Gundam Warrior rose from the ground, Shadow Clone turned to Mana and said, "I was not acting with you just now. In this duel, I think Itachi will win."

Shingon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Although Itachi has a lot of experience, Sasuke also has a lot of cards up his sleeve. Moreover, during this period of time, Sasuke has also accumulated a lot of combat experience from training with the first generation. Are you a little too confident?"

"Itachi is not only experienced, he also has a trump card." The shadow clone said, motioning Shingen to watch the fight between the two.

On the way here, Shadow Clone and Itachi learned that Itachi's Susanoo possessed two sacred weapons - the Totsuka Sword and the Yata Mirror.

Itachi, who possesses two sacred weapons, can be said to be capable of both offense and defense. The Totsuken Sword is a type of the Kusanagi Sword, which can seal the enemy who is stabbed, while the Yata Mirror can defend against all attacks. If Sasuke cannot break the defense, he will become passive in this battle.

"Why don't we make a bet?" The shadow clone suddenly said, "I bet Itachi wins."

"What's the bet?" asked Mantra.

"The loser will stay in the milk tea shop to look after the store during this main mission." said the shadow clone.

Zhenyan looked at his shadow clone and said, "Why do I feel like I'm at a disadvantage?"

"If you win, you can get free milk tea from now on." Shadow clone added, "Is this okay?"

"I bet." Shingon believed in Sasuke. All the time Sasuke had been attending tutoring classes was not in vain.

After making the bet, the one and the shadow clone began to pay attention to the fight between Sasuke and Itachi, and both of them used Susanoo at this time.

Sasuke's Susanoo first used a bow and arrow to launch a long-range attack, but all the attacks were finally blocked by Itachi's Yata Mirror.

The long-range attack was blocked, and Sasuke quickly changed his strategy. Susanoo transformed into a giant sword and began to fight in close combat.

However, the Yata Mirror is a large shield that can provide absolute defense. After Sasuke hit Itachi hard, not only did he not hurt him, but his giant sword was also bounced away because of the Yata Mirror's recoil effect.

Seeing this, Shadow Clone spoke again and asked Zhenyan: "Do you want to admit defeat?"

"The battle has just begun." said Zhenyan.

On the battlefield, Sasuke also realized that if he could not break through the defense of the Yata Mirror, it would be difficult to win. However, if he tried his best to break a shield, he would be at a disadvantage in the subsequent battles because of excessive consumption.

Sasuke stood in his Susanoo, facing Itachi from a distance. Up to this moment, Itachi had never actively attacked once, and each time he just responded to his attacks.

Sasuke suddenly remembered that Shingon once told him that "I don't hate Itachi". Itachi's behavior at this time seemed to indicate that there were hidden stories about what happened back then that he had not noticed.

But he didn't need Itachi to do so. He was already on the same level as Itachi. He was qualified to know the truth about what happened back then.

Sasuke abandoned his weapon and directly controlled Susanoo to move forward and engage in hand-to-hand combat with Itachi.

Zhenyan once said that there are always more solutions than problems. When you encounter an unsolvable problem, you might as well change your perspective and break it down.

Since the defense of the Eight-foot Mirror is difficult to break, let's not break it.

Sasuke attacked Itachi one after another, and the moves he used this time were none other than the grappling technique that Shingon's wooden man had used before.

When Sasuke was sparring with Shingon's wooden man, he copied the wooden man's movements, which came in handy at this moment.

Sasuke used a tricky technique that was different from any other physical technique in the ninja world, and Itachi was caught off guard. In the end, just like Shingon used a wooden man to lock Sasuke's Susanoo, Sasuke used his own Susanoo to lock Itachi's Susanoo.

Itachi: “…………”!
