"Don't even think about leaving here.
Water Style: A Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death…"
Seeing this, Haku wouldn't give Sasuke a chance. She quickly formed hand signs and cried out.
In an instant, countless water senbon rapidly condensed above Sasuke, poised to strike… Left with no choice, Sasuke had to quickly turn around and temporarily avoid the attack!
"Sasuke…"
Kakashi saw this and immediately moved to rescue him, but Zabuza held him back tightly… "Just as you said before, your opponent now is me, Kakashi…"
Zabuza said with a fierce and sinister expression, his Kubikiribocho spinning as he attacked again.
[It seems I can only trust Sasuke until I defeat Zabuza…]
A sharp glint flashed in Kakashi's eyes as his kunai counterattacked fiercely.
Inside the Demonic Mirror Ice Crystals,
"Next, you can only defend against my attacks…"
Haku looked at Sasuke, who had retreated, and said calmly.
Her body then merged into an ice crystal, and under a specific angle of reflection, Haku's figure appeared in every ice crystal.
"Tch, you still succeeded… In that case, Sharingan…"
Sasuke spat lightly as he gazed at the countless ice crystals, his eyes instantly turning crimson.
He had anticipated this situation and had prepared for it!
"Is this the Uchiha's Sharingan?
A dōjutsu that can see through all of an opponent's attack trajectories and defend in advance.
I wonder how you will defend against my attacks…"
Haku said with a cold, expressionless face, three ice senbon appearing in her hand and shooting out at extreme speed.
Almost simultaneously,
all the Haku figures in the ice crystals made the same movement, unleashing a barrage of illusory senbon from 360 degrees, with no blind spots.
Mixed between illusion and reality, it was hard to distinguish… [I see it!!]
As Haku launched the senbon, Sasuke's pupils contracted, and he burst with chakra, moving from his original position.
The next instant,
the spot where he had stood was covered by a dense shower of senbon, a truly close call.
"Not bad… Then, I'm going to get serious now!"
Haku said, looking at the crimson single-tomoe Sharingan, not surprised at all. The Sharingan's perception was indeed not simple.
[Serious??
That wasn't even his maximum speed just now!!]
Sasuke's pupils contracted upon hearing this, realizing the danger, and his body tensed, ready for battle.
Although he had seen Haku's movements before, they weren't that clear… The perception of a single-tomoe Sharingan was still a bit lacking!!
"It's starting…"
Haku sneered, and the senbon in her hand once again shot out wildly… And they rapidly weaved through the various mirrors, attacking from all angles, like a torrential storm… Sasuke's eyes widened, activating his Sharingan, quickly dodging and beginning to form hand signs.
Constantly taking hits was not his style… "Puff, puff, puff…"
Caught off guard, just as Sasuke was about to complete his hand signs, he was still accidentally pierced by three senbon.
At the same time, his Fire Style ninjutsu was interrupted!
"Is your speed only this much?
Then I'm sorry, your existence ends here…"
Haku said fiercely, grabbing two more ice senbon, looking at Sasuke, who was panting as he pulled out the senbon.
[Damn it, the single-tomoe Sharingan can no longer fully track all the senbon.
There's no other way… Although this will consume some chakra, if I want to break through the blockade alone, this is the only option!
A quick fight…]
Sasuke's eyes flickered as he made up his mind, and purple-blue chakra airflow erupted around his body… "Silent Killing!
Impossible, how can you use Zabuza-sama's Silent Killing!!"
Seeing that familiar taijutsu, Haku's face instantly changed, and she cried out in alarm.
As Zabuza's student and subordinate, how could Haku not recognize what this was… At the same time,
Kakashi and Zabuza, who were fighting outside, both stopped in astonishment.
Sasuke, how could he use the Hidden Mist's Silent Killing??
"I just practiced this ninjutsu, which uses chakra techniques to enhance physical prowess, and I learned it… Today, you will know what an Uchiha is!
What a genius is!!"
Sasuke feigned disdain, acting cool as a breeze, vowing to solidify his reputation as a genius in one fell swoop!
With these reward skills, he couldn't possibly not use them… So, there was no need to hide them at all.
They weren't obtained by dishonorable means, so what was there to fear?
Did he want to play the pig to eat the tiger and get beaten into a porcupine??
Sorry, Sasuke had no masochistic tendencies… A genius needs no reason!!
"Is this what a true genius is…?"
Hearing the confidence in Sasuke's words, Haku couldn't help but mutter to herself, her eyes filled with shock.
Kakashi and Zabuza outside were also the same… "Then let me see how much faster your speed can get… You defiler of Zabuza-sensei."
Haku's expression changed, revealing a cold glint, and her figure rapidly weaved through the ice crystals, unleashing a furious barrage of senbon… Swish, swish, swish, swish… In an instant, senbon, even faster than before, attacked Sasuke from all angles.
However… Sasuke's speed at this moment was not much slower than Haku's, and with the aid of his Sharingan,
he managed to remain completely unharmed amidst the hail of senbon… "Using the mirrors' reflection to create attacks that are difficult to distinguish between illusion and reality… But the true attack is still only one physical entity!
I'm sorry, I've already seen through your ninjutsu…"
Sasuke quickly followed behind Haku, dodging and weaving, his hands rapidly forming hand signs.
'Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu…'
Almost instantly, after Haku disappeared into an ice crystal, Sasuke opened his mouth and spewed out a scorching Great Fireball.
The next instant,
the super-hot Great Fireball crashed into the ice crystal, and the clash of ice and fire caused a burst of steam to rise… But, that ice crystal did not melt.
"You're disappointed!
For now, it seems my ice crystals are sturdier…"
Haku's figure instantly appeared on another ice crystal, speaking calmly, secretly surprised by Sasuke's reaction speed.
"So what?
The essence of ninja combat is deception!
Who said I was going to use Fire Style to open a gap…"
Sasuke smirked mischievously, and the ice crystal behind him exploded with a loud bang… "Explosive tag!!
When did…?"
Seeing this, Haku's face changed. She hadn't expected Sasuke to open a gap in this way.
"Heh heh…"
Sasuke didn't want to give Haku a chance to reform the ice crystals. He chuckled and rushed towards the gap.
As long as he got out, with the speed of Silent Killing, he would completely overwhelm Haku.
Without the aid of the Demonic Mirror Ice Crystals, Haku's speed wouldn't be as terrifying as it was now!
"Don't even think about escaping…"
Haku saw this and urgently burst forth, simultaneously throwing senbon to stop him and erupting chakra to condense ice crystals.
But against Sasuke's speed, it was futile!
She could only watch helplessly as Sasuke successfully broke through… "Swish, swish, swish…"
Just as Sasuke's upper body broke through the blockade, three kunai, forming a triangular pattern, arrived in an instant.
This sudden turn of events made Sasuke's face change, and he urgently kicked the half-formed ice crystal, retreating to dodge.
"Ah… How could it be Sasuke??
I clearly saw that guy's figure…"
Outside the Demonic Mirror Ice Crystals, Naruto's surprised shout followed… making Sasuke's mouth twitch… He had planned for everything, how could he have forgotten about the clumsy Naruto!!
"Sorry, it seems luck is still on my side…"
Haku said coldly, taking the opportunity to restore the ice crystals, making Sasuke's face instantly darken…
