"It's truly disappointing. After all this time, you still haven't improved," Itachi said with a cold tone.
But in reality, he was thinking, "Sasuke, you've actually improved a lot."
After the initial shock, Sasuke became very angry.
But because Itachi was choking him and pinning him against the wall, he couldn't speak. Under the intense emotional stimulation, his three-tomoe Sharingan suddenly activated!
It seemed Itachi was somewhat surprised that Sasuke had already activated his three-tomoe Sharingan, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
It was a pity that Sasuke didn't notice.
"Are you ignoring me?"
Shinji's figure appeared behind Itachi at some point, and the Kubikiribōchō in his hand slashed out mercilessly.
Swish, swish, swish!
Itachi, who should have been decapitated, instantly turned into a flock of crows and scattered.
It was Itachi's signature Crow Clone Jutsu!
"Cough, cough!"
Sasuke, sliding down the wall, immediately clutched his neck and coughed twice, then unhesitatingly rushed towards the window.
He poked his head out and saw what he expected!
That man was standing on the opposite rooftop, looking down at him.
That kind of gaze again...
That condescending gaze, as if looking at a piece of mud that couldn't stick to the wall!
Sasuke felt blood rush to his head. All the imagined reunion scenarios shattered, and the questions he had prepared to ask were all thrown out of his mind.
He just wanted to defeat that man now!
Just as he was about to jump out the window, Shinji suddenly spoke, "Have you thought it through? You're no match for him right now. The difference in level is too great. If you take this step, you'll probably get beaten badly."
At this moment, Sasuke had already placed one foot on the windowsill. He said without looking back, "Even so, I want to know how far I am from that man. Please, let me be selfish this time, Big Brother Shinji."
With that, he jumped out without hesitation!
Shinji watched Sasuke's retreating back and stood by the window without saying a word.
He seemed to be worried about Sasuke's safety, but in reality, he was as steady as an old dog.
Because anyone else might truly harm Sasuke, but that guy opposite him would not.
So, since Sasuke was willing, and one was willing to be beaten, he naturally wouldn't interfere in this revenge game between the two brothers.
However, while he thought this, others did not.
Another figure gradually approached and drew his weapon, 'politely' 'requesting,' "How about we two stay here and watch the show? I can see that Itachi has no intention of killing, so he won't do anything to that brat. Of course, after today, you'll likely be bedridden for a while."
Shinji glanced at Kisame, his gaze lingering slightly on the unique Samehada at his waist.
"Although your proposal is excellent, I don't like feeling threatened."
"So what will you do?" Kisame also became interested and looked at the Kubikiribōchō in Shinji's hand.
"I'll advise him to go easy, but he's probably very angry about being disturbed from his sleep, so I'm not sure if my advice will be effective."
Huh?
Kisame seemed to not quite understand the meaning of Shinji's words, but in the next moment, he understood.
Boom!
A figure unceremoniously smashed through the wall and then brought down his Scythe with a fierce blow!
Kisame blocked with Samehada, and the two immediately became locked in a stalemate.
"Good strength, but that alone won't stop me."
"Huh?"
Hidan showed an extremely malicious expression. "Who said I was trying to stop you? I just wanted to kill you from the very beginning!"
Clang, clang, clang...
Hidan began to attack wildly, while Kisame defended calmly. The two large weapons clashed fiercely, producing various crisp sounds.
Shinji looked away after just two glances.
Because in his opinion, anyone who dared to engage in close-quarters combat with Hidan was a warrior.
If Kisame used his Water Style to trap Hidan, Hidan, lacking effective long-range options, would almost certainly lose.
But if Hidan managed to draw blood before Kisame could react, then Kisame would surely die!
So the outcome of the fight between these two depended entirely on fate.
Meanwhile, as Shinji had expected, Sasuke was being brutally beaten.
Never mind that Sasuke had activated his three-tomoe Sharingan and learned Chidori.
In front of Itachi, he was completely outmatched, like a little brother.
Itachi wasn't even warming up; he was toying with Sasuke using only clone jutsu, body replacement jutsu, and a few low-level genjutsu.
However, Itachi was actually very surprised at this moment.
Although he had provided Sasuke with the motivation to grow, Sasuke's rapid increase in strength was indeed beyond his expectations.
Perhaps in a few more years, Sasuke would grow to a level where he could be taken seriously.
Bang!
Kicking Sasuke away once more, Itachi stood in place and said with an extremely cold expression, "Still can't recognize the gap between us? Your capacity is too small. You're so weak you don't even deserve to die by my hand."
Here it comes, here it comes!
The reason he gave for not killing Sasuke.
It was like an ant at your feet challenging you. You easily defeated it, and could even crush it with a single step, but you felt it didn't even deserve you to lift your foot, so you let the ant go.
It was simply because the difference in strength was too great; you could kill the opponent anytime you wished.
This was the mercy and charity of the strong towards the weak.
Of course, Itachi was just saying this intentionally to provoke Sasuke.
Sasuke was furious, enraged!
So he used his final Chidori, he charged, he charged!
Bang, Sasuke fell~ (crying)
To leave Sasuke with an unforgettable deep impression, Itachi even chose the extravagant option of using Tsukuyomi to finish Sasuke.
What was the difference between this and using a powerful ultimate move to finish off a low-health opponent in a game?
The opponent had only 1 HP left, why bother!
It was completely unnecessary!
It was truly tragic.
Shinji once again appeared before Itachi. Speaking of which, excluding the instance in the instance, this was his first time meeting Itachi.
How to put it, he sympathized with Itachi's experience, but he couldn't understand his actions and thought process.
If it were him, even if he led the entire Uchiha clan in rebellion, he wouldn't do something as foolish as annihilating his own clan.
"Who are you? Why is Sasuke here with you?"
Sasuke had fainted, so Itachi naturally wanted to clarify things.
"Why do you care about these things? This shouldn't concern you, right?"
Saying this, Shinji suddenly kicked Sasuke aside, as if finding him in the way.
Then he felt a killing intent lock onto him.
