"How, how could..."
Naruto stared blankly at Hinata who was stabbed into the chest by Sasuke's knife, as if he couldn't believe the scene before him.
Sasuke pulled the knife out of Hinata's chest, and his fingers were stained with a lot of blood.
He released his right hand that was holding Hinata's throat. Hinata didn't struggle and slipped weakly to Sasuke's feet. Her chest was bleeding, staining the clothes on her chest red.
"Naruto...Naruto-kun..."
Hinata seemed to be shouting Naruto's name unconsciously. Hinata's voice was very weak, as if the flame of life would be extinguished with just a gentle blow of wind.
"hateful!!!!"
Naruto shouted, eyes red.
Even though he kept falling down while running, he crawled to Hinata's side covered in mud.
"Hey, Hinata, how are you..."
He held Hinata's body, and Hinata in his arms seemed to have no warmth. He just closed his eyes and allowed Naruto to call, unable to respond.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The shouting sounded very sad and desperate.
Sasuke ignored the grief in Naruto's heart, and just jumped back, as if to say goodbye to Naruto, and jumped onto a strong branch, drawing a clear boundary.
"In this way, you can understand my current determination a little bit, Naruto... an idiot can't live long. So, don't chase me. At least..."
The words 'I once considered you my best friend' never came out of Sasuke's mouth.
Such words have no meaning anymore.
After knowing the truth, he could no longer identify with the village of Konoha.
He had to find Itachi now. He had as many questions as the sea to ask Itachi.
I want to get all the answers from him.
Before that, the village of Konoha was very dangerous to him.
Especially after he learned about the darkness of this village, Konoha's top brass probably wanted to get rid of him quickly.
Only by trying his best to survive can he have the right to demand justice from the dead tribesmen and be qualified to question the higher-ups.
Power, power, and more power is needed.
Without strength, he can do nothing.
Sasuke's face seemed to be trying to endure something, and he frowned. He took a deep look at Naruto with his Sharingan, then turned around and disappeared into the air.
◎
"I'm almost getting used to the power of the curse seal..."
Sasuke was running through the forest, feeling the eagle palm flesh wings growing out of his back. To be honest, this feeling was very strange.
And where the fleshy wings grow, there is a numb and itchy feeling.
Half of the body seemed to be dyed dark brown, and the other half was still wrapped in curse marks.
The left half of the Sharingan, which was occupied by dark brown, lost its color and brightness, as if it had fallen into deathly darkness.
"So, where should we go next?"
Although he wanted to find Itachi quickly, he had no idea where Itachi was at the moment.
He didn't know what action Itachi would take after seeing him.
After all, it was recorded in that secret file that Itachi was the blade in the hands of Konoha's top brass. After defecting, he was still serving the village of Konoha.
And the reason why that file is kept is probably so that one day, the subsequent Hokage can continue to control the sharp blade of Itachi.
Therefore, if you rashly come into contact with Itachi, it may be more dangerous than contacting Konoha's high-level officials.
But if he didn't look for Itachi, what could he do next?
Where can he go if he is alone?
Sasuke suddenly realized that the world was so big that there seemed to be no place for him.
After calming down, he was confused about where to go.
But it is not entirely correct to say that the place has been completely lost.
On the other side of the continent - the Kingdom of Ghosts, there is still an Uchiha clan living there. And the Uchiha of that line seemed to be more powerful than the Uchiha of Konoha.
If I go there, will those people accept me?
Although they all have Uchiha blood, strictly speaking, Sasuke is not familiar with the Uchiha clan there.
Moreover, the Uchiha people there probably also hate their stupid brother who committed an act of genocide.
As the younger brother of the person who exterminated the clan, will he really be accepted by the Uchiha there?
"It turns out that I am a homeless stray dog..."
Sasuke smiled to himself.
At this moment, a dull sound came from the sky.
Huge thunder resounded across the sky.
The cold air gave Sasuke goosebumps.
A trace of raindrops fell from the sky and landed on Sasuke's face, making the confusion in Sasuke's eyes dissipate a lot.
"Anyway, we have to leave the Country of Fire first and find a place to stay."
Sasuke thought as he accelerated forward.
Although he wanted to stop and adjust his condition, considering that Konoha would soon send out pursuers, he could only escape from the Land of Fire in one breath.
Next, I'm afraid there will be a tough battle.
On the border of the Land of Fire, Konoha's troops are stationed there all year round to prevent the outbreak of war.
Since I didn’t have documents to go abroad, I had to force my way through there.
Of course, you can also bet on luck and bet that you won't be noticed by those Konoha ninjas.
Once he is noticed, no matter how strong he is, he will never be stronger than the hordes of ninjas.
The surrounding trees began to shrink, and the gloomy dark clouds and raindrops in the sky could already be seen.
The forest road is coming to an end.
I heard the clear sound of water flowing from the front.
Two huge statues, looming, stand on both sides of the wide river.
"Valley of the End, is this the direction of Tian Country?"
Sasuke frowned and then noticed that he was heading towards Tian Country.
So, should we go straight or go west, closer to the Kingdom of Ghosts?
Although he guessed that the Uchiha of the Ghost Country would not be willing to accept him, Sasuke was unwilling to not try his luck there.
No matter what, having clan members exists is like not being homeless.
After losing the safe haven of Konoha, just escaping and avoiding Konoha's chasing troops may consume all his energy.
Moreover, before having absolute power, it might become dangerous to search for Itachi as a rebel ninja.
If he could get help from the clansmen of the Demon Country, the situation would be different. At least he wouldn't have to waste time and energy trying to avoid Konoha's pursuit.
This is the biggest difficulty with defecting ninjas.
In the difficult situation of being abandoned by the whole world, no matter how powerful the ninja is, sooner or later he will be exhausted physically and mentally and die.
Just when Sasuke was about to make a decision, there was a whoosh and a figure quickly approached him from behind.
Sasuke was shocked, so fast!
He didn't realize at all how the other party approached him.
He turned around quickly, only to see a flash of red, and the fist hit him directly in the face.
boom!
The body was smashed by this fist and flew away, making a rustling sound as it hit branches and leaves.
Pushed by this force, Sasuke felt a burning pain on his face. Even the rain falling from the sky could not relieve the pain on his face.
The body flew out of the forest, and its body was unreservedly exposed under the gloomy sky.
After turning over and the force on his face gradually weakened, Sasuke managed to stabilize his body and slid about five or six meters on the water of the river, stopping his retreat.
"This feeling..."
Sasuke narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the tingling sensation on the skin of his face, and a chakra aura that was not weaker than his remained on it.
Immediately afterwards, Sasuke saw a figure descending from above his head through the reflection on the water.
The whole body is wrapped in a red chakra coat, and behind the butt, a tail is spread out that is also composed of red chakra.
boom!
The figure fell down.
The water exploded.
Water splashed everywhere.
Sasuke stepped back and dodged the attack.
Then, he held his still aching cheek, smiled at the visitor, and said, "It seems you are serious this time, Naruto."
"Why……"
Naruto stood on the water, the red chakra tail behind him swaying like fluid. He lowered his head so that Sasuke could not see his expression at the moment.
"what why?"
"Why do you do that..."
"Are you referring to Hinata? My hand probably slipped accidentally."
Sasuke picked his ears and said nonchalantly.
"Unforgivable..."
The temperature in the air dropped, and there was a violent, disturbing atmosphere.
"..."
Sasuke stared at Naruto. Suddenly, Naruto raised his head, allowing Sasuke to see his face at this moment.
His lips turned black, the beard on his cheeks also turned black and thicker, and his originally blue pupils turned as red as blood, glaring at Sasuke with a cannibalistic gaze.
Powerful chakra erupted from his body, creating strong winds that blew Sasuke's hair and clothes around.
Sasuke put his hands in front of his face to block the sudden strong wind.
Seemingly sensing some kind of will in Naruto's eyes, he also laughed coldly:
"You can put on a very powerful expression, isn't it? Your stupid look before made me vomit! It's because of this that Hinata becomes like that. It's all because you are too naive! "
"Shut up!"
Naruto's figure flashed and disappeared from Sasuke's eyes.
Under the impact of this violent momentum, Sasuke reluctantly opened his eyes.
boom!
The body was shot away.
Rolling on the water, the pain in his chest made Sasuke groan.
As soon as he adjusted his body on the water, a strong wind blew from behind him.
Sasuke immediately turned his body sideways and saw the scene of the water exploding under the bombardment of Naruto's fist.
"What a brutal attack..."
There is no skill at all, just pure swiftness and brute force blessed by special chakra.
Although the moves are full of flaws and there is no skill to speak of, they are indeed tricky.
"Um?"
Then, Sasuke, who was half-crouching on the water, realized something was wrong.
He looked down and saw ripples swaying on the surface of the water. The ripples were getting bigger and bigger, and he knew a dark mass was emerging.
"Oops!"
Sasuke tried to dodge, but it was too late.
The fist rushed out from under the water and hit Sasuke's chin while splashing.
That was also Naruto wrapped in red chakra.
Forgetting that Naruto was best at shadow clones, and ignoring this himself, made Sasuke angry.
From the beginning, this shadow clone had been sneaking aside, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The body flew out in a parabola, and Sasuke wanted to adjust his body in the air. A red figure flashed in front of his eyes, and Naruto appeared above him in a posture of maintaining a fist.
Sasuke struggled to hold his hands up to resist Naruto's punch.
Boom!
The fist deflected downward and hit Sasuke in the abdomen.
The bitter water in Sasuke's stomach mixed with the blood in his mouth and spurted out together.
Falling heavily onto the water.
Before sinking to the bottom of the water, the front of his clothes was grabbed by Naruto who suddenly appeared in front of him.
Water rolled into his nose, causing Sasuke to cough painfully.
Even so, Sasuke smiled.
"Ha...ha...what's wrong with your fist..."
boom!
Holding the front of Sasuke's clothes with his left hand, Naruto clenched his right hand into a fist, aimed at Sasuke's cheek and began to punch him violently, making Sasuke swallow his next words directly into his stomach.
"……still……"
Sasuke's inarticulate words merged with the sound of Naruto punching him in the face.
"...Soft..."
Another punch came and Sasuke could feel his face starting to lose consciousness.
"...Is this your anger? You are so weak... Hinata will cry, she likes you so much..."
Sasuke was still sarcastic and looked at Naruto with a sneer.
"shut up!"
Naruto continued to punch.
However, this time, Sasuke put his palm in front of him and firmly caught Naruto's heavy fist.
After catching Naruto's fist, Sasuke suddenly raised his right leg and kicked Naruto in the back, catching him off guard and rolling out along the water.
Sasuke coughed and stood up from the water unsteadily. Looking at Naruto who was also standing up less than ten meters away from him, he gasped: "What a troublesome guy, but don't think that you are the only one who can use special of chakra."
"I'm going to break your limbs and take them back!"
Naruto said this, his eyes fierce, with the cruelty and ferocity of a beast.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
Sasuke opened his arms and laughed loudly.
"That's right, that's right, that's it, that's what makes it fun! I've long wanted to fight you after you become stronger. If you don't have the mentality of killing me, you won't be able to experience the fun of fighting at all! Let's Let’s see who is stronger now, Naruto!”
"Then you have to watch out. If you're not careful, I will really kill you!"
Naruto said seriously.
He raised his right hand, put his thumb in his mouth and bit it. Blood flowed down his thumb, and a seal began to form in Sasuke's surprised eyes.
Snapped!
Bleeding palms pressed against the water.
Chakra began to surge throughout his body.
boom!
A huge white smoke sprayed on the water, and in the white mist, a huge shadow like a mountain appeared.
It was a toad holding a huge pipe in its mouth and wearing a huge dagger.
A body as huge as a hill, just standing there gives people endless pressure.
However, facing this level of pressure, Sasuke showed no fear.
The blood was boiling, and a strong fighting spirit emerged from Sasuke's eyes.
Following Naruto's example, Sasuke also bit his finger, formed a seal, and then pressed it against the water.
"No matter who it is, come out to me! Psychic skills!"
On the surface of the water, a smoke no less powerful than the appearance of a giant toad was sprayed out.
The strong wind blew, and the smoke suddenly dispersed.
A black cat no smaller than a giant toad stood on the water.
"Meow~"
The black cat roared ferociously into the surrounding air.
The tail behind it is covered with a layer of silver alloy, and at the tip of the tail, a sharp alloy blade unfolds.
Judging from the size of the black cat, the alloy blade at its tail is larger than the human body.
With a gentle sweep, a long and narrow knife mark visible to the naked eye appeared on the side of the cliff, causing a large amount of gravel to roll down from it.
There was a wild look in the golden cat eyes.
"The feeling of chakra is so strange, but you have signed a contract with our family. Who are you?"
The deep voice of the giant black cat came from the mouth.
Asking the identity of Sasuke standing above him.
"……Sasuke Uchiha."
Sasuke wasn't quite sure where the black cat stood, but he still gave his name.
"Uchiha Sasuke? I see, are you an Uchiha from this side of Konoha? Even so, you seem to be the only contractor left among the Uchiha here."
Itachi's act of genocide destroyed the agreement between Uchiha and the Ninja Cat Clan. It not only attracted the hatred of the Uchiha Clan in the Kingdom of Demons, but also many people in the Ninja Cat Clan were hostile to him. Therefore, a few years ago, he Instead of breaking the contract.
However, the contract regarding Sasuke has not been terminated and is still intact to this day.
"Then, the rest of the battle is up to you."
Sasuke said softly.
"Okay. My name is Night Fire, and I am one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ninja Clan! You must remember this, Uchiha boy."
After saying that, Yehuo moved his limbs gracefully, took a step forward, and stared at the giant toad in front of him with a fierce gaze.
This giant toad is naturally Gamabunta from Mt. Myouki.
It also seemed to be aware of the hostility of the black cat Yehuo. After taking a drag on the pipe in its mouth, it blew out a smoke ring.
"Is your opponent a cat? You will try your best to cause this kind of trouble for me."
"Please, boss! I must defeat this guy in front of me now and bring him back to Konoha!"
Naruto said while standing on top of Gamabunta's head.
"Then there's nothing we can do. Although it will be difficult, we have no choice but to do it. Now stand still, Naruto!"
As she spoke, Gamabunta used her hind limbs and jumped up, directly jumping hundreds of meters into the air. She pulled out the short sword on her body and slashed it down.
The black cat Nightfire let out a meowing roar, with an unyielding ferocity. It also jumped up, swung its tail, and at the same time the hurricane was set off, the silver alloy blade at the tip of its tail slashed at Gamabunta. dagger.
Ding!
The impact sound was louder than that of ordinary weapons and spread far away.
In mid-air, Gamabunta kept swinging his short sword, and Black Cat Nightfire was not to be outdone. He swung his tail and cut out the alloy blade on his tail.
For a moment, sparks flew.
Although their bodies look bulky, they are very flexible, and their strength and speed are exaggerated.
"Water Release·Iron Cannonball!"
Aiming at a gap, Bunta opened his mouth and spat forward.
Heavy water balls formed by the convergence of water jets are ejected.
Yehuo smiled contemptuously.
"Fire Release·Explosive Bomb!"
A fireball that is more intense and solid than ordinary flames is fired from the mouth of the night fire.
Water balls and fire balls exploded in the air, white high-temperature steam erupted instantly, and the misty steam directly engulfed the figures of the two giant beasts.
After a while, sparks caused by the collision of the blades splashed out from the gradually dissipating white steam.
Toad's short sword and Black Cat's tail sword kept colliding with each other. The blades were swung as fast as lightning, tearing the air and making terrifying sound of breaking through the air, which was frightening to watch.
While the two giant beasts were fighting, Sasuke and Naruto seemed to have telepathy, and they jumped away from the giant beast's head and rushed towards each other.
Naruto wrapped himself in red chakra and punched hard.
Sasuke did not dodge, and faced the attack head-on.
Ripple-like ripples swayed in the air with a thud.
The rain pattered all around, and raindrops seemed to flow on the cheeks of the two of them. Compared with Naruto's brightly colored pupils, Sasuke's Sharingan further lost its luster and brightness, becoming extremely gray.
The dark brown complexion further eroded Sasuke's body.
There seemed to be some squeezing sound coming from the right side of Sasuke's back.
laugh!
The clothes were torn, and the dark brown fleshy wings of the eagle palm were exposed to the air, corresponding to the fleshy wings on the left back, forming a pair of fleshy wings.
The Sharingan on the right, like the Sharingan on the left, lost its original crimson color and fell into deathly silence.
The darkness wrapped around his body made Naruto extremely angry and sad.
"You bastard, please wake up! Don't think that you can easily expose your actions that hurt your companions! Go back and repent!"
Regardless of the pain in his fist, Naruto would continue to attack and use physical communication to wake Sasuke up.
Sasuke's face was covered with a cold smile.
What does it feel like to be completely plunged into darkness?
The pain, confusion, hesitation, and sadness all seemed to disappear from the brain.
Quiet.
Extremely quiet.
As quiet as a cemetery.
Sasuke didn't seem to hear any sounds, and he didn't know who he was fighting. He felt like he was just relying on instinct.
This feeling, as if the one fighting Naruto was not himself, but another strange feeling.
"Idiot! How can you go back to a place like that! Didn't I tell you not to chase me again?"
Sasuke kicked out in the air and hit Naruto's side of the face, turning his body into a cannonball and flying away.
On the cliff behind, a hole was made that could fix the human figure.
Sasuke used the rocks on the side to jump up and onto the top of a huge statue.
Naruto seemed like nothing had happened. The chakra tail behind him suddenly stretched out and hooked the fingers of the statue. Using this as a fulcrum, his body was also flexible and stood on top of the statue. He looked at Sasuke with a soft gasp.
"Such evil chakra, is this really good? That kid will be swallowed up by that dark chakra, right?"
Bunta held his pipe in his mouth, blew out the smoke ring, glanced at Sasuke, and then spoke casually to the night fire in front of him.
"Maybe, but that's not something I should worry about. Besides, the chakra you use is different from mine. It's a tailed beast. Fortunately, it's not a complete body, otherwise it would have to be... Boss Yuhuo takes action."
Yehuo also glanced at Naruto. The color, quality and quantity that were different from ordinary chakra were far beyond what ordinary ninjas could achieve.
Among all the psychic beasts in the Ninja Clan today, there is only one whose strength barely reaches the level of a tailed beast.
"In other words, you are the second strongest among the four kings of your Ninja clan?"
Gamabunta attacks with his short sword.
Yehuo also blocked with his tail sword, and then slashed towards Bunta's side at a weird and tricky angle.
Mrs. Wen jumped hard with her hind limbs and dodged the incredibly fast tail sword slash.
"Who knows, except for the boss Yuhuo, the other two haven't made many gestures. However, the name of Miaomu Mountain is really one I have admired for a long time."
Yehuo takes advantage of the victory and pursues it.
"Hmph, compared to this, I have never heard of a psychic beast from the ninja cat clan being so powerful!"
Wentai snorted heavily.
In his memory, the Ninja Clan should be a second- or third-rate force in the psychic world.
Only in terms of intelligence collection and arms, it has developed well and has special intelligence and arms channels.
"And...you are using natural energy."
Wentai narrowed his eyes, showing caution.
This is the first time that it has seen, in addition to the psychic beasts in the three holy places, there are other psychic beasts using this special power.
Bunta, who has grown up in Miaomu Mountain since childhood, and who can also master natural energy, is naturally no stranger to this kind of breath.
"Ha, did you notice it?"
"It seems like you've got some tips too, but it's great that you don't know magic."
If Yehuo can freely use immortal arts, then in Miaomu Mountain, he is at least at the level of an elder, and there is no way that a psychic beast like him can fight against him.
"Aren't you the same? Stinky toad!"
Hearing what Wentai said, Ye Huo's speed and strength in slashing his tail knife increased again, because being underestimated aroused the ferocity in his bones.
But what Wentai said is also an indisputable fact. For a giant beast of its size, it is not that easy to master the magic of immortality.
"wildcat!"
The two giant beasts collided again, and the water under their feet quickly squeezed the surroundings, forming water waves more than ten meters high, washing away towards the forest and cliffs.
There was an astonishing amount of humidity in the air.
The two giant beasts were bathed in the rain, panting heavily, but neither of them wanted to be outdone and glared at each other fiercely.
On the other side, Sasuke and Naruto also started fighting again.
The two of them seemed to have accumulated all the strength in their bodies, and then jumped and quickly approached each other. The strong wind around them seemed to be creaking with texture.
In Sasuke's Sharingan vision, all of Naruto's movements were seen through the Sharingan.
In this way, Sasuke seemed to see the future for the next second and knew what Naruto would do next and from which angle he would attack.
So, anticipating this 'future' in advance, Sasuke lowered his head and turned sideways, allowing Naruto's fist to be swung away like lightning.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Sasuke's mouth, and dazzling lightning accumulated in his right hand, which he aimed at Naruto's chest without mercy.
"Chidori!"
Blood surged out, and a red chakra tail came around and directly tied Sasuke's neck, throwing his body away and hitting the head of the huge statue, creating a crater.
Naruto, on the other hand, stepped back, covering the wound where blood was constantly spurting out. The beard on his face became thicker and thicker, and sharp fangs like canine teeth were exposed from his lips.
A storm rolled up behind him, and its two tails danced wildly like pythons.
"Is that the power of the nine-tailed demon fox? I didn't expect it to be so troublesome."
Sasuke wanted to end it with one blow, but because of the chakra coat, he deviated from the original track.
It only broke Naruto's shoulder and lungs, but under the layer of red chakra, the wounds there began to heal.
We must fight quickly. When he recovers, I will definitely lose! Sasuke made this judgment when he saw that Naruto's area damaged by Chidori was healing rapidly.
The longer the war drags on, the worse it will be for him.
He could feel that the power used by Naruto was only an insignificant ray of power from the nine-tailed demon fox.
Sasuke wondered, could that kind of power really be controlled by humans?
Just a ray of power, so terrifying, it's hard to imagine that that kind of monster was sealed by a ninja.
"However, you can't get that chakra ball out for the time being."
Sasuke knew that Naruto had a weak point in chakra control. The stronger the chakra, the more difficult it would be to balance it.
Naruto, who was able to use his shadow clone's assistance to launch his ultimate move, was unable to form the seal at all when his right hand was temporarily immobilized.
In other words, all Naruto can use is the chakra of the Kyuubi.
No other ninjutsu can be used.
Before the right arm recovers, it's a decisive opportunity.
This opportunity and time cannot be wasted.
Naruto did not respond to Sasuke's provocation. Instead, he stretched himself on all fours like a beast, his fingernails becoming sharper and longer, and they were deeply rooted in the soil.
"This murderous intention is really good... From this point of view, this thing is probably not needed anymore."
Sasuke smiled and untied the forehead protector on his forehead, letting his hair fall loosely. The palms of his lowered arms were slightly loosened, symbolizing the forehead protector of the Konoha ninja, falling to the ground freely and making a sound.
"This time, I win! Naruto!"
Sasuke seemed to be predicting the future and making such assertions after seeing the future.
He condensed most of the remaining chakra in his body towards his right hand, and the azure blue lightning quickly turned into pitch black. In Sasuke's hand, the shrill and shrieking lightning was like a dark thunderbird, singing from a distance. People provoke.
Provoked by the jet-black thunderbird, Naruto's expression became more ferocious and he let out a roar.
The storm caused purely by chakra was created directly out of thin air, as if a vacuum was formed between the two of them, preventing the rain from the sky from penetrating.
Taking this as a signal, the two of them stepped forward violently with enough force to crush the ground.
Three meters...two meters...one meter...
Feeling the huge chakra coming from the pressure from the front, although he didn't want to admit it, Sasuke had to admit that this chakra had surpassed himself.
Silently calculating the distance between himself and Naruto.
Just when Naruto's claws wrapped in red chakra were about to pierce his body, Sasuke seemed to have anticipated this scene. He flipped his body and skillfully passed over Naruto's head and went around behind Naruto.
Behind Naruto, there seemed to be a pair of eyes that sensed danger. His two tails whipped out quickly, like a giant python wrapping around his body, directly wrapping Sasuke's body and squeezing it.
There was even a terrifying sound of bones being crushed and broken in the air.
Naruto turned his head, his pupils burning with fire color, and his remaining rationality was very weak.
Compared to a human being, Naruto now seemed closer to an out-of-control beast.
On his back, a new tail grew out.
"Fool."
Vaguely, Naruto heard someone's voice coming into his ears.
The next moment, Naruto's pupils dilated instantly.
Sasuke's body, entangled by his tail, began to twist strangely, and finally became invisible and disappeared like air.
Illusion!
Naruto noticed something unusual, raised his head and looked up.
What greeted him was a ball of dark lightning.
The sound of birds chirping appeared in my ears.
It was too late to react.
The dark lightning and the power of the chakra coat are canceling each other out.
In mid-air, a strange scene of red and darkness appeared.
Finally, the dark thunder broke through the blockade of the chakra coat and touched Naruto's body.
The lightning impact carrying the storm fell from the sky amidst the roaring sound.
The violent explosion attracted the two psychic beasts Wentai and Yehuo from a distance.
When Yehuo's tail sword and Bunta's short sword struck with the speed of the swords they carried, cutting straight and narrow cuts on the cliff, the ground, and the river, they all stepped back in unison and stabilized their bodies. , staring towards the location of the explosion.
"Is it over there?"
"That's right. It's almost time for us. Let's leave the victory or defeat this time to next time."
Feeling that the summoning time was coming to an end, Yehuo said to Bunta.
There were a lot of curling marks on the hard tail blade.
The same goes for Bunta's short sword, which has serious signs of curling.
"Can."
Bunta nodded, put away the scarred short sword, and disappeared with a bang.
Yehuo watched Bunta leave and let out a breath. His body shook violently and he shook the rainwater off his hair. After glancing at Sasuke's position, he stirred up a burst of white smoke and disappeared into the rain.
"……Ha ha……"
Sasuke struggled to stand on the ground.
The pair of fleshy wings on his back disappeared after the attack, and the chakra in his body almost dissipated, leaving only a meager amount.
He glanced at Naruto who was lying in a pool of blood, still breathing his last faint breath.
The red chakra wrapped around his body was also sluggish. Although he tried his best to restore Naruto's injuries, the effect was still very slow.
"If it weren't for this illusion, I would be the loser..."
Sasuke looked up at the gray rainy sky and smiled with not only emotion, but also excitement.
The clear black and white pupils have regained their brightness and color, making them very clear and bright.
Itachi's words, 'You can get the Mangekyō Sharingan by killing your closest friends' came to mind again in my ears.
"curse……"
Sasuke slowly turned around, raised his steps without hesitation, and took firm steps in the direction facing away from Naruto.
"It's ridiculous... If I can't overcome this level of darkness, how can I become stronger... Itachi, sooner or later, I will make you realize your own insignificance..."
◎
in the forest.
Sasuke tried his best to save his energy and moved forward.
The current situation is very bad.
Sasuke's physical strength and chakra are almost at their lowest. In this state, it is very dangerous to cross the border of the Land of Fire.
But he couldn't stop. It was almost time for Konoha's high-level officials to find out about his defection from the village. It wouldn't take long before a large number of pursuers would come to pursue him.
"That idiot made me look like this...next time, I will definitely kill him!"
Sasuke said fiercely.
But after saying this, his body leaned directly against the tree, relying on the trunk to barely ensure that he did not fall to the ground.
In the end, Sasuke couldn't hold back his physical and mental exhaustion.
At this time, it is almost evening. Sasuke estimated the time.
Not to mention that your physical strength and chakra are about to bottom out, if you are exposed to this kind of place all the time, you will easily catch a cold now, and your physical condition will be even worse by then.
"Yo."
Just when Sasuke was thinking about where to spend the next night, a familiar voice heard in his ears.
His head jerked up.
What he saw was Kakashi who appeared in front of him at some point, stretched out his hand and said hello to him.
Sasuke seemed to have given up completely and sat down on the muddy ground. He reluctantly cheered up and asked Kakashi, "It's been so long, Kakashi. Why, are you here to arrest me?" Did you go back? I didn’t expect the senior management to send you here directly. You really think highly of me..."
Although he used the Sharingan and Orochimaru's curse seal to defeat Naruto, who had entered the tailed beast state and was equivalent to the strength of a Jonin, Sasuke did not think that he now had the same strength as Kakashi.
Even at his peak, Kakashi can easily defeat him.
In the face of absolute strength, his little tricks are completely meaningless. His strength is still too immature for these long-established ninjas.
"Well, there's no need to be so nervous. After all, I've been with you all the way. I can somewhat understand your current mentality."
Kakashi motioned to Sasuke not to be nervous.
"What's the meaning?"
Sasuke frowned and looked at Kakashi in confusion.
"There are two instructions given to me from above."
"two?"
Take it back with the body or capture it alive? Sasuke laughed to himself.
"The first one, if you are attracted by the power of the Sharingan and Orochimaru and start to lose control, so that the Sharingan mutates into the Mangekyo Sharingan, we will immediately take you back to the Kingdom of Ghosts. The second instruction, if you If you don't lose control and go berserk, I'll take you to Orochimaru."
After listening to Kakashi's narration, the expression on Sasuke's face froze.
For a moment, he vaguely grasped some important information.
"Who...are you?"
