Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Never Underestimate Too Much

I quickly throw the pile of leaves on the floor and find a completely recent document that was hidden among the papers.

"Contingency and death plan, the next step will be you..." As I read that, I completely discover the secret that one of the I.M.A. leaders was keeping.

Is...

The leader's photo was marked with an X written by a finger bleeding on the paper. The leader was none other than Modok himself.

In the report, a certain name was censored in black in some paragraphs, but it explained that Modok was defeated by this certain someone for selfish reasons. He craved power and domination... he was tired of just serving, he wanted to lead everything he wanted.

His head was so focused on this that he himself managed to forget who defeated him in the past, but defeated? Shouldn't he be dead after this defeat? Wait... this is a trick question.

The author of this report must faithfully believe in the religion of transmigration, so the word "past" must strongly refer to "past life." It would not make sense for him to have such great ambition so soon after going through a phase of trying to forget what happened to himself.

In this case, it's not that the author forgot, but rather that the current avenger wanted to forget the tragedy he experienced in his past life.

"If this is the case... then there is only one person I know who has returned through transmigration and behaves this way."

- Creek...

"Raise your hands now, Itachi Uchiha."

A familiar voice in a sadistic tone sang in my ears, asking me to raise my hands.

A man with medium-length gray hair combed back, with distinctive purple-pink eyes, pointed a gun at my head while his tongue slowly licked his lips.

"Apparently you died too, didn't you? Who was the person who killed you and discovered your weakness?" I provoked Hidan while I was looking in his direction... he's the type of bitch who gets angry easily, just you wait and see.

"As if that matters, and provoking people isn't your usual behavior... did you sleep with a woman or something?" Hidan, with a confused expression about my personality, starts moving the gun around my head.

"People can change a little, don't you think, Hidan?" I asked him ironically, waiting for a clear answer from a brain made of wind like his.

And with a very quick movement, I ended up grabbing Hidan by the arm and pulling his body against the floor to immobilize him, however, he ended up kicking me hard right after, causing my body to crash into the office wall.

Both of us with sore backs, we got up and exchanged quick blows, with kicks to the head and punches to the face.

"Don't you ever get tired of showing off, Itachi?!" He shouted as his body moved very fast... however, I turned quickly and grabbed him from behind to jump out of the room where we were.

With our bodies crashing to the floor, he elbowed me in the face and retreated to a distant corner of the hallway.

"Cough!... What a strong elbow." In my mind, he was too skinny to deliver such a strong elbow strike.

But I forget that for us ninjas, it's not physical strength that matters, but the technique used... maybe I underestimated Hidan for a moment based on his past history, but that ends here.

I got up and quickly grabbed my Kunai from the pocket of my black and red Kento Nanami suit that I was wearing.

Hidan wore a black suit with a lavender top... holding his large scythe with only one gray blade, like that of the Grim Reaper.

"A small weapon against a large weapon? Move on, Itachi... this is the real world."

He was trying to provoke me, but it's useless for him to do that... I'm just buying time to gather enough strength to face him, because it won't be difficult to cut his throat with this.

With a strong charge, I run towards him silently and we begin to exchange blows with our blades... the blows from his scythe were so strong that my Kunai released a lot of sparks that deteriorated the resistance of my weapon.

"He has greatly improved his skills with his scythe, it's even suffocating to fight against it knowing that I don't have the chakra to perform any jutsu."

My face was sweating profusely as I tried to land a decisive blow against Hidan, but his blade prevented me from making any significant progress against his body.

"It's a good thing you don't have Asuma's knives to fight this... I would definitely have a little trouble." Hidan again gets carried away with the subject while I recover my energy.

"Don't you ever get tired of talking? Honestly..."

Hidan's sadistic smile is exposed, and with the swing of his scythe, he runs towards me to finish me off.

"I NO LONGER NEED JASHIN TO WORSHIP, NOW I AM FREE TO BE WHATEVER I WANT!" With his scorching cry, he swings his scythe at my body.

However, you forget that I can always find a way to outsmart you, Hidan.

- SSSSHHH...

"Huh... What the hell is this?"

Hidan is surprised that his fatal blow was stopped by a robotic hand, who would have thought? If I underestimated you a little during the battle... you certainly underestimated me even more.

"Fyrefly Type-VII, In Position."

[Activating RedBlack Mechanical Armor Fyrefly Type-VII S.A.M...]

My entire body began to be covered with S.A.M's robotic armor, which belongs to Firefly in the Honkai Star Rail universe.

And with the scythe attached to my robotic skin coating, with my right hand, I break Hidan's blade in half... ending this fight that delays my mission once and for all.

"Take me now, to your leader, Hidan." With an arrogant tone mixed with my robotic voice, Hidan looks scared as he walks backwards, watching me down the hallway.

"You disgust me, Itachi."
