The ninja world shouldn't have such an awesome weapon!
"Whoosh~!"
Just as Naruto passed a death sentence on this bizarre-looking greatsword, the Samehada came rushing toward his face with a strong gust of wind.
The weight, the speed...
Naruto knew that if an ordinary ninja were to be hit, they would probably be knocked unconscious on the spot.
But no matter how fast Samehada was, it couldn't be faster than Naruto's reaction.
Swish~
With a flash of golden light, Naruto 'Flashed' to a branch of a nearby tree.
Boom—
Accompanied by a violent explosion, the tree that Naruto had just been on was shattered to bits by the Samehada's impact.
"So fast!"
Kisame's shark-like eyes praised as he looked at Naruto, who had narrowly dodged the attack.
Others, after having their chakra absorbed, wouldn't have the remaining energy to use such speed.
"Hehe."
Naruto didn't mind.
This guy, despite being ugly and seemingly polite, was truly ruthless in his attacks.
He showed no mercy.
Why were there so many cold-blooded people in the ninja world?
Sigh...
Naruto let out a long sigh, his face filled with melancholy. Sure enough, this world was sick!
Rustle, rustle, rustle, rustle~~~
A dense sound, similar to that of a rattlesnake, rang out.
Hmm?
Naruto looked towards the source of the sound.
He saw the bizarre greatsword, Samehada, had swelled to more than twice its original size, looking more like a giant wrecking ball!
Even more strangely, a large mouth had opened at the head of the monstrous thing, with a tongue sticking out.
At this moment, its barbs stood on end, colliding and rubbing against each other, making the noise.
It seemed that the thing was trembling with excitement.
"Samehada seems incredibly excited!"
Kisame's voice was full of excitement.
It was the first time he had seen Samehada like this. It seemed Samehada really liked the Nine-Tails' chakra.
This chakra, both in quality and quantity, was completely incomparable to anyone else's.
As expected of the Nine-Tails' jinchuriki!
Let's have more!
Today, he would let Samehada eat its fill!
Kisame's will moved, and he swung the Samehada in his hand again. Samehada, which had absorbed a huge amount of chakra and become enormous, was now like a super hammer, smashing toward Naruto at high speed.
Tsk, again?
Watch me retrieve you!
Facing the incoming Samehada, Naruto was about to reach out and retrieve it, but he thought of something, and his movements paused. The retrieval action came to an abrupt halt.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
Naruto looked at the bizarre weapon in front of him.
Samehada didn't seem strong, but it was very specialized. It could absorb a ninja's chakra, and even a Tailed Beast's.
It was definitely a great helper for capturing Tailed Beasts.
For a moment, Naruto didn't want to retrieve this thing anymore!
It wasn't that he had become a saint!
It was just that the number of Haaki Nagato's teammates was a bit small.
Nagato bore the historical responsibility of collecting the Tailed Beasts and becoming the biggest villain boss in the ninja world!
The task could be described as arduous.
To complete the mission of collecting the Tailed Beasts, he needed assistance.
This Samehada, and Kisame who wielded it, were some of the few remaining powerful subordinates of Nagato. They were excellent at capturing Tailed Beasts.
If he retrieved it, wouldn't he have to buy it back later?
Wouldn't that be a waste of money!
So…
Looking at the slightly ferocious Kisame, Naruto flashed away again, dodging the attack.
"Hmm?"
Seeing his attack miss again, Kisame was a little annoyed.
"Do you only know how to dodge?"
"You've guessed wrong. I don't just know how to dodge!" Naruto looked down at Kisame, a stingy smile on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking—
Swish~
A flash of golden light!
This time, Kisame saw it clearly. Naruto had disappeared directly. It was clearly not some Body Flicker Technique, but more like some kind of space-time ninjutsu?
"Where are you looking?"
Kisame was shocked to find that Naruto's voice was right next to him!
Before he could turn his head, he noticed a short figure behind him out of the corner of his eye.
"When did he—"
"Too slow!"
Before he could react, Naruto's slightly lazy yet intimidating voice rang out in his ears.
The Great Strength Taijutsu, Activated!
Naruto clenched his fist into the size of a sandbag and swung it!
This punch was heavy!
Bang~
Pfft~~~
Hit in the back by a punch, Kisame felt as if he had been hit by a mountain!
Swish~
Kisame was sent flying by this punch, instantly turning into a fast afterimage and crashing into the nearby forest.
Boom, boom, boom~~~
He didn't know how many trees he broke on the way, how much ground he tore up, leaving a thick trail of smoke, rubble, and broken trees behind him.
Finally, he stopped.
Thump, thump, thump~
Kisame's entire back had disappeared, completely turned into a bloody mess. Even his beating heart was exposed.
And he himself was lying on the ground, his fate unknown.
Kisame Hoshigaki, defeated!
"A bit weak! Couldn't even withstand one punch? Shukaku took so many punches!"
After a word of complaint, Naruto glanced at him from a distance and then looked away.
Naruto wasn't planning on ending his life, just making him temporarily lose his fighting ability.
Rustle, rustle~~~
Hmm?
Hearing a strange sound, Naruto turned to look.
He saw the greatsword, Samehada, grow a few long barbs and use them as legs to slowly crawl in Kisame's direction.
"Like a centipede." Naruto chuckled.
He hadn't expected this thing to be so loyal to its owner.
After a glance, Naruto ignored it and turned his attention to the battle between Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke.
Their battle seemed to have ended even faster than his own.
The result was, of course, no surprise.
Sasuke was now lying on the ground, his eyes tightly closed, as if he were dead.
And Itachi Uchiha?
He had just used Tsukuyomi on his younger brother, forcing Sasuke to relive the horror of that night for a full three days and three nights, using it to strengthen Sasuke's memory.
As expected.
Even after years of being apart, Itachi Uchiha was still very concerned about Sasuke's learning.
After that, Itachi's gaze had been on this side.
At this moment, his eyes met Naruto's.
This was the first time Naruto had seen Itachi Uchiha head-on.
A wooden face, without a trace of emotion.
Especially those eyes, cold and desolate, as if he had died once.
Even more so than Kakashi-sensei.
That's right!
After doing something like that, this person had probably already died once, right?
Thinking of this, Naruto looked at Sasuke lying on the ground.
Now, the only straw Itachi Uchiha had to live for was probably the guy lying on the ground.
Naruto clearly remembered the dialogue between Itachi Uchiha and Danzo that night.
"You won!"
Itachi Uchiha's voice was flat, as if he had no emotions.
"Yes, I won."
"Then, I will be the one to apprehend you next."
Just as Naruto was about to agree, Sasuke on the ground voiced his objection.
"Naruto..."
Naruto knew what he wanted to say, but...
"Shut up! If he can't escape, then I can only kill him!"
Sasuke wanted to get up, but he was too weak to stand, and could only sadly give in.
"Kill me?"
Itachi Uchiha repeated Naruto's words.
"Then come on!"
"Wait a moment!"
Swish, swish, swish~~~
In a few flashes, Naruto moved Sasuke to the side.
"Watch closely and learn!" he said to Sasuke.
Then, he turned his gaze to his enemy, smiling arrogantly. "Since that's the case, then I'll start with a greeting!"
Hmm?
Itachi Uchiha's eyes showed curiosity. A greeting?
Sasuke, on the other hand, opened his eyes with difficulty.
A greeting? He knew that all too well!
He struggled to look up at Itachi Uchiha. That move... I hope you don't die!
Sasuke yelled in his heart, and then he couldn't hold on anymore and collapsed.
Clap~
Naruto put his hands together. In an instant, an incredibly powerful chakra surged from his body. The terrifying air current almost sent Sasuke flying.
This...
Even the calm Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but be surprised. With such a terrifying amount of chakra, was this some kind of ultimate move?
"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!"
Whoosh~~~
A fine line of lava-like flame shot out of Naruto's mouth. The moment it appeared, it expanded exponentially, and in the blink of an eye, it covered everything in sight!
"Is that a Fire Style?"
Even the composed Itachi Uchiha was a little doubtful of his life at this moment.
Facing the massive fire coming towards him, Itachi could feel the scorching heat from a great distance away.
The flames were approaching fast, and Itachi knew he had no time to be surprised.
He quickly scanned the towering inferno. With this range, there was nowhere to escape!
He could only use that one move!
The three tomoe in Itachi's Sharingan spun rapidly, instantly connecting into a strange pattern.
Then,
"Amaterasu!"

Tony Stark: I don't know what happened, that day I teamed up with Du Mu, and when I came back, I was left with only one pair of underwear.
Banner: My situation is exactly the opposite of yours, only my underwear was stolen. I got so angry I transformed into the Hulk, and I was on the front page of every major news outlet that very night.
Thor: Du Mu said he had already maxed out his Justice Value to 1000, then he picked up my Mjölnir and ran off.
...
Facing the complaints of a group of superheroes, Du Mu calmly states: "These are all operations allowed by the game. If you have a problem, go talk to the game planner."
