Chapter 94 The Fear of the Sharingan, Kisame's Fighting Spirit
"What a useless fellow, Deidara-san. He was all talk and no action, but he couldn't even withstand a single move?"
Just as Deidara was about to be smashed into a bloody pulp, a black afterimage flashed through the air.
Itachi Uchiha instantly appeared on the path of the fall.
He didn't use any ninjutsu; he simply reached out a hand and grabbed Deidara by the back of his collar, as if picking up a dazed chick.
He then landed lightly on a thick branch, his movements fluid and graceful.
With a casual wave of his hand, Itachi sent out several steel wires that bound Deidara tightly.
They also removed the ninja tool pouch from his waist, sealing off his chakra flow.
"Manager Roy said it had to be alive."
Itachi muttered to himself, as if he had just completed a simple purchasing task.
He picked up Deidara, jumped down from the tree, and landed on the frozen lake.
Bai immediately came forward. Although he had exhausted himself before, he was still forcing himself to stay upright.
"Mr. Itachi..." Haku looked at the unconscious Deidara with eyes full of awe.
The madmen who almost wiped them out didn't even have a chance to explode in front of this man.
Is this Konoha's true top-tier fighting force?
"Bring him in."
Itachi tossed Deidara to Haku in a detached tone.
"Keep an eye on him, don't let him wake up and move around. The manager still needs him to set off the fireworks."
"Yes!" Haku took Deidara without saying anything more.
Zabuza laboriously moved over, looking at Itachi with a complicated expression.
"Uchiha... Itachi."
"I never expected you would save me. Consider this a debt I owe you."
Itachi didn't turn around, but merely glanced sideways.
"You don't owe me anything. You're the store manager's employee, and to some extent I am too. This is just a job."
After saying that, Itachi stepped forward and walked towards the man who was carrying Samehada and watching the show.
Kisame Hoshigaki.
Kisame didn't feel fear or anger because his teammate was instantly killed; on the contrary, his shark eyes burned with excitement.
"This is truly eye-opening."
Kisame slammed Samehada heavily onto the ice, causing the ice to crack instantly.
"Is that the legendary Sharingan? With just one look, it turned that brat who talks about art all the time into a cripple."
He looked the weasel up and down as if examining a rare treasure.
"A genius of the Uchiha clan, a man who almost carried out a plan to exterminate the clan. Oh no, it seems the information was wrong."
Kisame just said sarcastically.
"You're still protecting Konoha like a loyal dog? You even obey that shopkeeper? How ironic, Itachi-san, have you really fallen to this level?"
Despite Kisame's provocation, Itachi's expression remained completely unchanged.
"I never explain myself based on rumors."
Itachi's voice was cold and clear.
"You're the same, the weirdo from Kirigakure. No matter what your status is in Akatsuki, no matter why you're here."
Itachi raised his right hand, holding three shuriken between his fingers.
"Now, you only have two paths in front of you."
"Leave, or die."
"die?"
Kisame burst into wild laughter.
"Hahahaha! Hahahahaha!"
"Interesting! This is so interesting! Since joining Akatsuki, no one has ever dared to say something like that to me!"
Kisame stopped laughing, his eyes turning fierce.
"Itachi, there's something I've always been curious about too."
He gripped the hilt of Samehada with both hands, and his chakra began to surge wildly.
"Which is faster, your Sharingan or my Samehada?!"
"Now that Deidara, that good-for-nothing, is out of the picture, let me see just how much of the Uchiha clan's legend is true!"
The ice beneath Kisame's feet suddenly shattered.
He stopped holding back and immediately switched to battle mode.
This wasn't just for the mission; it was also to satisfy his desire as a battle maniac.
The thrill of fighting against a powerful figure like Itachi Uchiha was something he had always dreamed of.
"Samehada! Unleash!"
With a roar from Kisame, the greatsword Samehada in his hand began to writhe violently, instantly doubling in size.
At the same time, a massive amount of chakra surged into the sky.
The sheer amount of chakra was so great that even the Sensory Team, located far away in the heart of Konoha Village, sounded the alarm.
"This is……"
Zabuza, standing at a distance, was pale.
Although he had just fought Kisame, it was only now that he realized Kisame had been playing around all along.
"A tailless tailed beast... Is this its true form? This amount of chakra... it's practically a humanoid tailed beast!"
Kisame looked at Itachi, his voice becoming low:
"Will your genjutsu still work within my chakra domain, Itachi?!"
"Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique!"
Kisame formed hand seals, and a shark-shaped water bullet made of high-density water roared towards Itachi.
This water bullet is not only incredibly powerful, but even more terrifying is its ability to devour chakra.
The stronger the opponent's ninjutsu, the more chakra it absorbs, and the greater the power of its counterattack!
This is a killing move specifically designed to counter ninjutsu-type ninjas!
Faced with this overwhelming offensive, Itachi frowned slightly.
He could sense that the enemy before him was completely different from Deidara, who relied on ninja tools and a single secret technique.
Kisame Hoshigaki is a true monster who excels in both taijutsu and ninjutsu, and his chakra reserves are astonishingly large; ordinary fire-style techniques are simply no match for him.
"Water escape technique...?"
Itachi didn't form hand seals to unleash the Great Fireball, because he knew it would only provide fuel for the Great Shark Bullet.
He slowly closed his right eye.
When he opened his eyes again, his original three-tomoe Sharingan had changed.
Three blade-shaped patterns spun and connected in the blood-red pupils.
The Mangekyou Sharingan, ominous chakra gathering in his left eye.
Since ordinary ninjutsu can be absorbed, then let's use fire that cannot be absorbed or extinguished.
Black flames from hell.
"Amaterasu."
Itachi's gaze focused on the enormous water shark, a ball of black flame igniting on its head.
The collision of water and fire should normally result in water overcoming fire. But in the face of Amaterasu, this common sense is overturned.
The black flames were not extinguished by the water; instead, they spread and engulfed the entire giant water shark.
Zizizi!
The sound of evaporation rang out, and the high temperature instantly burned the water-style chakra to ashes.
The enormous water shark writhed in agony in mid-air before finally dissipating into white steam and vanishing without a trace.
"What?!"
Kisame was also extremely shocked.
His devouring ninjutsu was burned away?
"A flame that can even burn water?"
Kisame looked at the black flames still floating in the air and felt a strong sense of crisis.
But he didn't back down; instead, he became even more excited.
"Great! This is the legendary power of the Mangekyou Sharingan!"
Kisame transformed into a bolt of lightning, advancing instead of retreating, and charged directly at Itachi.
"Let's see if your eyes can kill me first, or if my sharkskin can tear your flesh apart!"
"Water Release: Senshi Sharak!"
Countless sharks leaped from the water, swarming and biting the weasel.
