Hard-Fought Clash with 'Susanoo'

"Gasp, what is he talking about!?"

"Hey, hey, this guy can't be serious, can he?"

"He wants to face 'Susanoo' head-on?"

After hearing Shinji's words, everyone outside the arena widened their eyes as they watched him stroll leisurely toward Sasuke's purple 'Susanoo'.

With the Akatsuki Organization's activities growing more prominent, the powerful dojutsu 'Susanoo', which represented the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, had made a spectacular showing in the Shinobi World.

Whenever a major battle broke out, it was always present.

During the last battle in Grass Country, Akatsuki Organization B's 'Susanoo' had even accomplished the feat of withstanding a meteorite falling from the sky!

So when Sasuke's purple 'Susanoo' appeared in the training ground, although it was not as tall and imposing as Akatsuki Organization B's 'Susanoo', it was still enough to intimidate everyone present.

Not to mention the students and villagers, who were crying out in alarm—even Third and the others watching from afar felt a wave of intimidation!

That was precisely why everyone found it unbelievable that Shinji, who was on the field and had to face 'Susanoo' directly, remained so calm.

"Teaching others how to deal with 'Susanoo'?" Sasuke snorted softly. "Shinji, stop resisting. Under these Mangekyō Sharingan of mine, you only have the Three-Tomoe Sharingan. Any resistance is futile."

Before Sasuke could finish speaking, Shinji flashed forward and lunged to the front of Sasuke's 'Susanoo'. Then he slammed a punch into the half-bodied, skeletal form of 'Susanoo'!

Boom.

Accompanied by a thunderous crash, the 'Susanoo' struck by Shinji's fist was actually knocked back seven or eight meters under everyone's astonished gazes. Sasuke, standing beneath it, also staggered back two steps.

"H-How is that possible?!"

After steadying himself, Sasuke's face was filled with confusion.

He had never imagined that his 'Susanoo' could be knocked back by
