At this moment, Sasuke didn't know why he felt afraid of Naruto.
How could that be? How could Naruto, a loser, scare me? It must be my imagination.
But the feeling of being surrounded by a ferocious beast was also stimulating him.
Moreover, Naruto's previous injuries are starting to heal rapidly. Just what is this guy?
[Nine-Tails: Tch, just a little brat. I have no interest in him.]
As the Tailed Beast the Tailed Beasts, how could I possibly bully an elementary school student? It's just that Naruto was influenced by his own Chakra, so how can you blame me for that?
[At this point, Naruto, consumed by hatred, couldn't care less about anything else.]
To avoid handing Sasuke over to someone like Orochimaru, I wouldn't mind breaking all the bones in Sasuke's leg.
[Uchiha Itachi:?]
Breaking bones? What are you doing? Weren't you trying to stop it? Stopping it like this?
At this moment, Naruto was like a god descending to earth, grabbing Sasuke, a Half-Step Chunin up indiscriminately, forcing Sasuke to keep running away.
Not only that, Naruto skillfully dodged all of Sasuke's Ninjutsu.
"It's about time you woke up, or I'll beat you so badly you can't move!" Naruto said, shoving Sasuke behind him.
As everyone knows, the Sage of Six Paths was very fair to his two sons; when he gave one a cheat code, he also gave the other one a cheat code.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"What do you, someone with no family, possibly understand about me?!"
"You've been alone from the very beginning, what do you really know about me?!"
Sasuke's Sharingan began to appear in his eyes, and now he was getting serious.
"Come on, Naruto, let me sever this bond with my own hands!" At this moment Sasuke, who had activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, had seen through Naruto's every move.
He can't escape his Sharingan.
[Uchiha Mikoto: Stop fighting!]
[Kushina: Yeah, you guys should stop fighting.]
Two people who should have been friends ended up fighting each other multiple times.
[Hozuki Mangetsu: But why does their relationship seem so familiar?]
[Asuma: That's obvious. Kakashi and Obito are the same. They bicker all the Tenten, argue constantly, fight after a falling out, and then make up again. They're practically cut from the same cloth.]
[Obito: Is that so...]
Oh no, it seems everyone has found out about my relationship with Kakashi.
Don't get me wrong, we're just friends.
Orochimaru was also constantly assessing the strength of his "disciple," wondering just how far Sasuke, now possessing the strongest Cursed Seal, could go. Orochimaru was very much looking forward to it.
Logically speaking, Sasuke in his bird-man form should be able to hold his own against Special Jōnin. It's just unknown how he'll fare against Naruto with only his tail showing.
"Sasuke, you!" Naruto wanted to say something when he saw Sasuke's wings that seemed to have grown out of nowhere, but then he remembered that he didn't know where his own power came from.
Let's settle this here.
"This place is called the Valley of the End, it's a pretty good stage." Sasuke really wanted to settle things with Naruto here.
He'd had enough of this utterly boring game of make-believe; now he was going to seek greater power.
[Madara Uchiha: Want to dance? But I don't think you're qualified.]
Madara completely disregarded these two brats. How dare they spout such nonsense? If it weren't for the fact that they look somewhat like my little brother, I would have already given them a piece of my mind.
[Hashirama Senju: You can't say that. We weren't as powerful as they were at that time.]
Hashirama remarked with a sigh, "When we were kids, we didn't have these two guys using up their Chakra like it was nothing."
[Madara Uchiha: Tch, these guys aren't as strong as we were back then. They're just relying on external forces. I could take them all down by myself.]
Ban said arrogantly, not to brag, but that their strength back then was genuine, earned through fighting on the battlefield.
These little devils are all show and no substance.
At this moment, one person added the power of the Tailed Beast to the Rasengan, while the other person added the Cursed Seal to the Chidori.
The collision between the two objects flashed with a dazzling white light, causing everyone to be momentarily blinded.
[Obito: Who won? Who won!]
Obito asked very eagerly, as if he really wanted to know the answer.
[Kushina: Obito?]
What do you mean? Obito, are you just watching the show? Everyone's worried. Is what you're saying appropriate?
The white light dissipated, and everyone saw Naruto lying on the ground, seemingly unconscious.
Sasuke, however, stood unharmed, seemingly without any injury.
"Puff!"
Sasuke spat out a mouthful of blood, which stained the surrounding ground red.
"Is it raining?" Sasuke, puzzled, as he watched the light rain suddenly begin to fall.
Was what I did right or wrong? And for some reason, my Forehead Protector fell off.
Sasuke glanced at Naruto lying on the ground, then knelt down, looking as if he wanted to kiss him.
But actually, Sasuke just wanted to get a closer look at Naruto, and this lasted for a few seconds.
[Obito: Ah! (Excited)]
[Hozuki Mangetsu: Ah! (shocked)]
[Rasa: Ah! (Doesn't understand)]
Looks like one of the three of them is a psychopath; why are they getting excited?
[Orochimaru: Looks like Sasuke won.]
Orochimaru said with a hint of pride, "On the surface, it's a contest between Sasuke and Naruto, but in reality, it's a contest between their respective masters."
It's obvious that Orochimaru is stronger than Jiraiya.
Finally, Sasuke didn't linger any longer. With his injured body, Sasuke slowly left the place where Naruto.
This battle ended with Sasuke's narrow victory. Orochimaru did make sacrifices to Sasuke back, but those sacrifices were necessary.
Because he has found a stronger vessel, a vessel that can surpass Uchiha Itachi.
[Tsunade: As expected, I knew it was Orochimaru who was behind this. Can't you just stay calm?]
[Madara Uchiha: See, Hashirama? I told you these young people can't compare to our generation.]
While these two are somewhat overpowered compared to the level of Genin, they're barely qualified as geniuses.
But can't we have something more exciting? This kind of battle is so boring.
