Among the ninjutsu that Sasuke knows, there is no way to escape from a difficult situation.

If there is any good way to kill Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke will definitely not hesitate to do it now, even if it means both sides will suffer losses.

"what to do?"

Maybe if I turn around and run, I can delay time and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

No matter how powerful Uchiha Itachi is, he is definitely not as fast as himself.

However, there is no room for maneuver in this matter. If I cannot avenge this blood feud with my own hands, what is the point of my persistence over the years?

He reached into the ninja tool bag behind him and poured a handful of military ration pills directly into his mouth. He chewed them and swallowed them. Then he took out various potions that he had saved and drank them all. There were ordinary potions and the remaining residue of the almighty potion he got from Mizuki.

As various medicines entered my stomach, a burning feeling quickly spread from my stomach to my entire body.

The originally dry meridians gradually began to become restless, and groups of chakra began to emerge out of thin air. This was a combination of the effect of the Bingliang Pills and the result of being forced to overdrawn by the potion.

The body that had been unable to support itself now showed a hint of vitality after being nourished by the chakra.

Now the only thing Sasuke can place high hopes on is the Chidori Blade.

The Kusanagi sword, an indestructible divine weapon that can cut through iron like mud, is the last resort.

With the complete form of Susanoo, it is difficult for Sasuke to even get close to it, but it is only in the basic skeleton state, and the Kusanagi sword and Chidori blade are not completely helpless.

Without the ability to fly, there is much less space to maneuver, and he can only rely on his agility and the insight of the Sharingan to fight with Susanoo.

Just like the fight between a mouse and an elephant, the absolute power gap between the two is huge, but it is still possible for one to kill the other.

Uchiha Itachi also has a Sharingan, which is even more advanced than Sasuke's. This puts him at a disadvantage in terms of bloodline limit, and he can only rely on other methods to achieve a surprise victory.

The hissing Chidori Blade flew up and down as Sasuke danced with his sword. The red sword in his right hand protected his body, while the silver light in his left hand flashed, constantly leaving scars on Susanoo.

The injuries that should have been able to recover immediately gradually became unable to recover in time soon after.

Xinzhen, who was watching the duel from a distance, sighed slightly.

Who wins and who loses depends on who has a stronger will.

The stronger party had no intention of killing and maintained a evenly matched situation, which was very unfavorable to Uchiha Itachi.

Light and dark, black and white, family affection covered by blood and sin, and bonds born of misunderstanding.

It’s sad and regretful that I can’t show my true self to others, but I can’t turn back now.

Walking alone in the long night, it will soon come to an end.

Not far from the battlefield, Kakashi, Tenzo, and Naruto were already close, but they probably wouldn't be able to catch up until the outcome was decided.

He casually took out two soldier pills, put them into his mouth and swallowed them whole. With the help of the emerging chakra, he slowly adjusted the condition of his body and prepared for the next move.

Xinzhen's judgment was not far off the mark.

The Susanoo was constantly being cut and its size kept shrinking, until finally only a row of ribs remained to protect it, and its hands were used to block, consuming Sasuke's physical strength.

The intense battle in a short period of time also consumed a lot of Sasuke's physical strength. Wielding two swords with the double-sword method consumed much more physical strength and energy than he had imagined.

"It seems like you can't do it anymore!"

Uchiha Sasuke, who had been waiting for this day for a long time, had fantasized about killing Uchiha Itachi countless times in his dreams at midnight. But when this moment was about to come, the feeling in his heart was completely different from what he had originally imagined.

The no longer condensed Susanoo can no longer provide the necessary defense.

After a slight delay, the sharpness of the Kusanagi sword finally pierced into Uchiha Itachi's chest.

“I won!”

"Really?"

Seemingly feeling no pain at all, Itachi Uchiha's Susanoo's left hand grasped Sasuke Uchiha's sword-holding left hand, and then grabbed Sasuke's other shoulder.

"You can't run away!"

"You've already lost, but you still want to struggle before you die?"

Bright red blood flowed from the corners of Uchiha Itachi's mouth.

"So, you can't escape either?"

Sasuke, who was caught at close range, was unable to break free. He watched Uchiha Itachi's right hand reach out for his eyes, and then he dug out his left eye without hesitation.

The intense pain made Sasuke scream, and before he could recover, his right eye was taken away without hesitation.

"What's the point of doing this? You're going to die anyway, and you can't kill me?"

Uchiha Sasuke shouted loudly.

After a moment, Sasuke realized that he had fallen into Uchiha Itachi's illusion again, but Tsukuyomi would not normally kill someone directly.

With his heart and lungs pierced, Uchiha Itachi has no chance of survival. Even if he fights back in his last moments, what use will Tsukuyomi be?

Seriously wounded the enemy? The battle is over, just go back and recover.

Knowing that there was a problem, Sasuke summoned up his last bit of mental strength. This critical moment was the best time to unleash his potential.

He was in a trance, and his eyes returned to their sockets. As soon as his vision recovered, he saw a blood-stained finger pressing against his forehead.

"Well done, Sasuke. You have finally avenged your father and mother!"

A rare smile appeared on the originally indifferent face.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, from now on, you have to go on alone."

The fingers slipped, leaving a trail of blood across Sasuke's cheek, causing the frightened Sasuke to shudder. Then he saw Uchiha Itachi's body soften and he never moved again.

The only time in many years that there was no disguise was when the light went out.

Since escaping into the darkness and walking alone, the boy who was accused of rebellion has grown into a young man who is not polite.

Never showing your true face to others, and being in agony with no way back, there is only that one light, which, although not bright, can indeed replace the sun and watch over your way forward.

A person just died like that, without any sudden downpour or any miraculous sign from heaven to mourn his death.

Only Uchiha Sasuke stood there blankly, looking at Uchiha Itachi who fell in front of him.

"Is he really dead this time?"

The hatred was dissipated, but it was not as relieved as imagined.

"What do you mean by the last words?"

Ignoring the chakra reaction of his companions who were about to arrive not far away, Sasuke held the Kusanagi sword across his eyes and looked into his own eyes through the sword...

"Is this the Mangekyō Sharingan? What an ironic cursed power!"

The threat of death, the pleasure of revenge, and the repeated mental shocks finally allowed Sasuke to overcome the most difficult hurdle!
