Dozens of small chains suddenly emerged from the ground, firmly blocking Kushina and the massive fireball in front of Uchiha Mikoto.
"This is?! Kongo Fusa?!"
Tsunade couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Kongo Fusa is a unique Sealing Technique of the Whirlpool Clan, a Ninjutsu that greatly restrains Tailed Beasts.
As Uzumaki Mito's granddaughter, Tsunade was naturally very familiar with this Ninjutsu, which is why she was so surprised to see it.
One must know, this was a secret Sealing Technique of the Whirlpool Clan; it was already impressive for an ordinary Whirlpool Clan member to learn it, but Kushina? She learned it at such a young age?
"No, this isn't Kongo Fusa. The chains of Kongo Fusa aren't this small, and their power isn't this weak."
Tsunade analyzed after carefully observing the chains.
"This is probably a simplified version of Kongo Fusa. Could it be that Kushina simplified it herself?"
The more Tsunade thought about it, the more unbelievable it became.
Tsunade didn't know that Kushina had obtained Kongo Fusa from a System reward, along with a large amount of proficiency in the Whirlpool Clan's Sealing Technique.
That's why Kushina was able to use the Whirlpool Clan's Sealing Technique with such mastery, even creating a simplified version of Kongo Fusa.
With this small Kongo Fusa, the Chakra chains became smaller, reducing their suppression on the Nine-Tailed and their attack power against enemies, but in return, the Chakra consumption was also reduced by multiples.
After using this small Kongo Fusa, she firmly blocked Uchiha Mikoto's Fire Release with the Chakra chains.
Of course, Kushina could also use the full version of Kongo Fusa, but that Ninjutsu was too powerful, and she didn't want to injure Uchiha Mikoto, so she didn't use it.
At this moment, Uchiha In was as incredulous as Tsunade.
Kushina is this strong? Has this world gone haywire?
Watching Kushina use the simplified version of Kongo Fusa, Uchiha In felt incredibly surprised.
He went to and from school with Kushina every day, but he never noticed that Kushina's strength had become so formidable; it was incomparable to their previous fights.
When Kushina defeated Minato Namikaze, Uchiha In thought she was holding back, but now he no longer thought that way at all.
What's happening to this world? Is it because of my interference? Has Kushina's strength also advanced by leaps and bounds because of me?
Uchiha In couldn't figure it out either.
However, this seems quite good. The stronger Kushina is, the happier I should be, right?
The entire situation on the field changed as Kushina used the small Kongo Fusa.
Countless chains crashed towards Uchiha Mikoto, who could only struggle to dodge.
"Mikoto-nee, give up. I've won this match."
Kushina controlled the chains, chasing Uchiha Mikoto, and said.
"Is that so? Don't celebrate too early."
Originally, Mikoto hadn't intended to use her trump card, but seeing Uchiha In looking at Kushina with a surprised expression, Mikoto couldn't sit still either.
After using the Substitution Technique to dodge Kongo Fusa again, Mikoto closed her eyes, then gathered Chakra into her eyes.
Sharingan, activate!
When Uchiha Mikoto opened her eyes again, they had already transformed into the Sharingan.
Three black tomoe spun gently in her pupils, giving off a feeling of both evil charm and allure.
At this moment, Uchiha Mikoto could feel that all movements around her began to slow down. The originally fast chains also became sluggish at this moment, allowing Uchiha Mikoto to clearly see them and easily dodge.
For a time, the situation became a stalemate.
Like Kushina, Uchiha Mikoto also did not use powerful Ninjutsu like Great Fire Annihilation, also fearing that Kushina would get hurt.
The two of them had no animosity, not even hatred.
Their recent argument was merely due to dissatisfaction and jealousy regarding Uchiha In.
"Sharingan with Three Tomoe!"
Tsunade and Uchiha In also gasped in cold air.
Tsunade and Uchiha In were both very clear about the Sharingan, but precisely because they were clear, they found it unbelievable.
One must know, Uchiha Mikoto was only about 12 or 13 years old now, but she had awakened the Sharingan with Three Tomoe!
"It seems I've found a treasure," Tsunade's face revealed a satisfied expression.
In Tsunade's understanding, being able to awaken a two-tomoe Sharingan at this age was already very impressive. Generally, Uchiha Clan members who awakened a Three-Tomoe Sharingan were Jonin in their twenties or thirties.
And now, Uchiha Fugaku, the strongest Genius of the Uchiha Clan's younger generation, had only barely achieved a Three-Tomoe Sharingan last year.
And Uchiha Fugaku was 18 years old now, a difference of 5 or 6 years from Mikoto.
This was enough to illustrate Uchiha Mikoto's talent.
Uchiha In felt even more incredible, because he absolutely could not have imagined Uchiha Mikoto's talent would be so powerful.
Because the original work did not describe Uchiha Mikoto's strength in much detail, Uchiha In was not as surprised by Mikoto as he was by Kushina.
They didn't know that Uchiha Mikoto had also only obtained the Sharingan with Three Tomoe a few days ago, thanks to a System reward.
"Alright, stop the fight."
Having roughly understood the strength of both sides, Tsunade also stopped their fight.
"You're amazing! I, Kushina, acknowledge you."
Kushina wiped the sweat from her cheeks, revealing a brilliant smile, and extended her hand.
"You're not bad either."
Uchiha Mikoto also showed a gentle smile and shook hands with Kushina.
Chapter 54: Ominous Premonition
Seeing the two shake hands and make peace, Uchiha In's expression relaxed.
Uchiha In's worst-case scenario was that the two would really get into a serious fight. If that happened, Uchiha In would definitely intervene and use forceful methods to make them get along peacefully.
However, in that case, there would inevitably be a rift between them, which was not what Uchiha In wanted to see.
