[Scorpion: To be honest, this guy named Uchiha Itachi isn't very good either. It took him so long to beat Sasuke.]

[Kisame: Perhaps, maybe Itachi-sensei softened his heart.]

[Scorpion: Hmph, leader, this kind of guy doesn't deserve to join our Akatsuki at all. How can someone who can't even abandon the most basic family ties be allowed to join us?]

Sasori said with great disdain, "I've seen Sasuke Uchiha too, and he's just so-so. That's all I can say."

Forgive me for being frank, but I could have dodged those shuriken with my Shuriken closed. How come you, Uchiha Itachi, couldn't even dodge them?

As for the changing weather, this good-for-nothing named Itachi must have noticed it all, right? No way, no way, is there really someone this useless?

And I didn't see Sasuke Uchiha hit you anywhere, so why are you kneeling on the ground coughing up blood? Are you trying to scam me?

[Kisame: It seems Mr. Itachi's health isn't very good, otherwise he wouldn't be bleeding after using just a few Ninjutsu.]

At this point, Kisame had become addicted to calling Itachi-san, even though Kisame was only a few years old at the time.

"This Ninjutsu is a lightning strike from the sky. I'm simply channeling that power towards you. The name of the technique is 'Kirin'!"

At that moment, Sasuke's Chakra began to connect with the lightning in the sky, and then a Kirin formed from lightning appeared in the sky!

"Let it dissipate along with the thunder!"

[Obito: What Ninjutsu? Kirin?]

It's not the Kirin everyone's guessing, but a real Kirin.

["Boom!"

"Boom!!"

The enormous Kirin crashed down heavily onto Uchiha Itachi, Kirin the entire house to pieces and turning the whole area into ruins.

Finally, Uchiha Itachi lay motionless on the ground, his entire Akatsuki coat burned by the powerful force.

Seeing Itachi lying motionless, everyone thought he was going to die.

[A: This kind of Ninjutsu a range that's probably comparable to an S-rank Ninjutsu, but its use is subject to limitations.]

[A: I didn't expect there to be such a powerful Lightning Release Shinobi. It does pique my interest.]

As everyone knows, the most powerful Lightning Release Shinobi is in Kumogakure, but today a genius who can rival the Raikage has appeared.

His self-created Ninjutsu is comparable to S-rank, so under these circumstances, Uchiha Itachi would have no chance of surviving.

[Shisui: Maybe, after all, Itachi hasn't even used his most powerful Susanoo yet.]

[A: Impossible. Even Susanoo n't possibly survive unscathed against such powerful Lightning Release.]

Facing the ruins, Sasuke slowly lowered his hands.

Sasuke's eyes were filled with disbelief. It was over!

Sasuke collapsed to his knees, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan automatically shutting down due to insufficient Chakra.

"It's over!" Sasuke forcibly suppressed his inner excitement.

"Is this... the way you wanted to see me die?" a familiar voice asked.

Sasuke suddenly looked up.

The man, covered in wounds, slowly stepped forward once more.

At the same time, the skeleton of a giant began to appear around them, and the red Susanoo began to condense continuously.

"Without this, we really would have been killed!"

"You've really gotten stronger, Sasuke!"

[Rasa: I was thinking, why didn't you use this ultimate move from the beginning? Why did you have to wait until you were almost dead to use it?!]

Looking at Itachi now, barely clinging to life, even with Susanoo activated, you won't last much longer.

That Amaterasu you had before was so bad it was practically a disaster, and now you're so weak you're practically sick. Why are you so good at hiding things?

If you keep hiding, you'll end up facing the King of Hell himself.

"This time, let me show you my final trump card! Susanoo!"

"Sasuke, is that all your Ninjutsu has to offer? If you still have hidden power, don't hesitate to use it!"

At this moment, Itachi controlled Susanoo closing in, and the Susanoo, which was originally just a skeleton, began to continuously improve.

Susanoo skeleton covered with meridians and flesh, wrapped in Chakra -like outer garment. It can break the Cursed Seal and use its own unique weapons and Ninjutsu.

The third form adds the Tengu Armor to the original Susanoo, greatly increasing its defensive capabilities.

At this moment, Sasuke leaned helplessly against the wall, watching Itachi closing in step by step.

"I can lend you my power!" At the same time, Orochimaru's seductive voice kept ringing in Sasuke's ears.

[Rasa: Why are you everywhere, you shameless snake? Weren't you dead?]

[Orochimaru: Hmph, how could I die so easily?]

Orochimaru was also watching his reflection on the screen with great interest, wanting to know what the path he would choose in the future would be like.

From the current perspective, Sasuke has no power whatsoever to stop himself from taking over Sasuke's body.

Faced with Orochimaru's seduction and the restless Cursed Seal on his body, Sasuke soon lost control of Orochimaru.

A ferocious Yamata no Orochi burst out of the Cursed Seal on Sasuke's back, seemingly a contingency plan left by Orochimaru.

After leaving Sasuke's body, the Yamata no Orochi began to grow infinitely larger until it reached the same level as Itachi's third form Susanoo.

"Does this feel like Orochimaru's Eight Branches Technique?"

The two sides soon clashed. Facing the giant serpent with so many heads, Itachi simply controlled Susanoo swing the longsword in his hand.

Several heads were quickly severed, but the remaining heads began to entangle Susanoo.

Unfortunately, Itachi's powerful strike severed all seven heads, leaving only the last head with its mouth wide open.

A familiar figure emerged from within.

[Tsunade: Can't Orochimaru stop inventing these weird and strange Ninjutsu? They make me feel disgusted!]

It was almost unbearable to look at; Orochimaru was covered in slime.

"Thanks to Sasuke, Chakra that was suppressing me has disappeared. I'll take this opportunity to hide in that child's body!"

But before Orochimaru could finish speaking, an Orochimaru pierced his body.

[Orochimaru: This weapon, could it be the legendary... and another shield!]

Oh no, this is going to be terrible!

Orochimaru initially thought it was an ordinary weapon until he suddenly realized...

"This sword, the Totsuka Blade!"

Orochimaru's expression changed drastically. "You old schemer! Itachi, you're even more cunning than me. So everything was under your control."

Orochimaru was immediately sealed by the sealing function of the Totsuka Blade.

Judging from the current situation, Itachi should win.

"Now your eyes are mine!" Itachi forced himself to walk toward Sasuke despite the pain.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his heart, and the massive Susanoo vanished just as Sasuke was about to use Shuriken to attack.

Itachi's Susanoo in front of Sasuke, and now Itachi could only slowly walk towards Sasuke.

Stunned, Sasuke could only keep pulling out Shuriken Explosive Tags, trying to throw them at Itachi.

But all of this was to no avail.

[Fugaku: Did someone really stab Susanoo with Shuriken?]

At this point, Fugaku also began to have doubts. What kind of person would be so desperate as to think of attacking Susanoo with Shuriken?

Since Shuriken didn't work, Sasuke drew his Kusanagi Sword and tried to charge forward.

However, the Susanoo Giant now rides a shield in front of it, which is the Yata no Kagami, a divine weapon on par with the Totsuka Blade Yata Mirror.

Sasuke was instead sent flying.

With no way Sasuke retreat, Sasuke finally arrived in front of Sasuke.

In the scene, Sasuke is forced against the wall, his legs trembling uncontrollably, while Itachi has two fingers poked into Sasuke's forehead (note, not his eyes, I saw it, it was his forehead!).

"Forgive me, Sasuke, this is the last time!" Itachi revealed a rare smile and gently touched Sasuke's forehead with his blood-stained hand.

He then physically fell to the ground and died.

Sasuke, on the other hand, gasped for air in shock and collapsed to the ground, utterly unable to believe that he had defeated Uchiha Itachi.
