A Battle with Shisui, a Crushing Blow!

After lunch.

Uchiha Jin left Fugaku's house feeling satisfied, giving the clan head's cooking a direct thumbs-up.

Having been transmigrated into a ninja for so long, he rarely got to eat so well!

Although, from the perspective of his past life, the taste of this meal was actually just average, the problem was that his current life had been quite difficult.

The reason was simple!

While he could cook, he didn't have the time in this life.

Under the immense pressure of his clan's potential destruction, he was immersed in training every day, with no energy left to spend on cooking and enjoying himself.

"Jin..."

"I'll check your strength first, then think about how to guide you."

"Coincidentally, I have a training ground at my place, let's go."

Shisui's face broke into a smile, and Uchiha Jin didn't refuse. The two headed straight for Shisui's home.

Then.

Looking at the three-courtyard large garden in front of him, which was no smaller than Fugaku's, Uchiha Jin's mouth twitched even more violently.

Truly—a nouveau riche!

He hadn't expected Shisui, this background character from the original work, to be such a wealthy individual in reality.

But upon closer thought, it was understandable.

After all, he was Kagami Uchiha's grandson, and Kagami Uchiha was the Second Hokage's disciple, a classmate of the Third Hokage and others. Even if there were some shady dealings behind the scenes back then, they certainly wouldn't mistreat Kagami's descendants on the surface.

On the massive training ground, Shisui's expression was solemn.

"Jin, attack."

"Don't be afraid of hurting me, just use your full strength."

Uchiha Jin's eyes narrowed slightly.

To be honest, he was quite interested in this "Body Flicker Shisui" from the original work.

He directly took out a kunai and unleashed his full speed, stabbing directly towards Shisui's neck.

Yes, he wasn't holding back!

For the current Uchiha Jin, apart from his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, there was no other strength he needed to hide.

And, in response.

Shisui's eyes narrowed, he tilted his upper body slightly, dodged, and then counterattacked.

Almost instantly.

Uchiha Jin felt immense pressure. Although Shisui's every move was simple, it still gave him a very awkward feeling.

As expected of one of the few strong individuals in the original work!

Even though Shisui was still a bit green now and hadn't been tested on the battlefield, he still put tremendous pressure on Uchiha Jin.

"Nintaijutsu, the gap is huge!"

"It seems I need to get serious."

Uchiha Jin's thoughts raced. He directly created some distance, and Shisui didn't pursue.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

A purple fire ball, as tall as three people, flickering with an almost brutal heat, was hurled directly at Shisui.

"Amazing!"

Shisui's eyes lit up, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

There was no fear in his eyes, only a faint smile: "Jin, I'm going all out now!"

After saying that.

Under Uchiha Jin's guard, Shisui's speed tripled.

He directly drew his short sword, flashed past the massive fireball, and then charged at Uchiha Jin with his blade.

And, in response.

Although Uchiha Jin tried his best to resist, his speed was far inferior to Shisui's. Even with his One-Tomoe Sharingan activated, he could barely see Shisui's movements, and his body couldn't react in time.

He wanted to create distance, but Shisui didn't give him the chance, sticking to him like glue.

Using ninjutsu was even more impossible!

Every time he couldn't even finish the hand seals before Shisui would interrupt him with a casual slash. What's more, Uchiha Jin could tell that Shisui was actually holding back considerably.

If this were a real battlefield, Shisui would have killed him with a single strike long ago!

Uchiha Jin was inwardly horrified.

Was this the guy who left such a deep impression in the original work, the one who earned the title "Body Flicker Shisui" during the Third Great Ninja War?

Truly--terrifying!

One had to realize that Shisui today hadn't used his Sharingan, nor even Ninjutsu. He'd defeated him purely with Nintaijutsu.

Even though Uchiha Jin hadn't gone all out, he still vaguely felt that even revealing his three-tomoe Sharingan would likely be useless.

The gap between them was just too vast!

Even if his Chakra was stronger than Shisui's, the man simply wouldn't give him time to use Ninjutsu. In terms of Nintaijutsu, he wasn't as fast as him. Besides taking hits passively, he couldn't counterattack at all.

Shisui spoke, "That's enough, stop."

Uchiha Jin let out a sigh of relief.

The way he looked at Shisui now was worlds apart from before.

Perhaps Shisui's personality was a bit naive, but his strength was still too exaggerated. This completely shattered the pride of Uchiha Jin, the transmigrator.

Was this the genius of the Ninja World?

Uchiha Jin's heart felt heavy.

He felt he had been too arrogant before.

Thinking back, the only true powerhouses he'd encountered in this Ninja World were Kakashi, but Kakashi was only five years old now. And due to his father Hatake Sakumo's suicide, Kakashi was currently too aggressive, leaving many openings during combat...

But even so.

He hadn't even truly fought Kakashi!

And now?

Shisui, who was only a few years older than him and Kakashi, made him feel a profound sense of pressure.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Shisui, seeing Uchiha Jin's complex expression, instantly perceived his thoughts.

His gaze softened, and he directly led Jin back to the tea room.

After personally brewing a cup of tea for Uchiha Jin, he spoke with a very serious tone, "Jin, don't be too disheartened. You're actually already very outstanding."

"From your Great Fireball, I can tell that your Ninjutsu has already begun to undergo nature transformation, correct?"

"The temperature and color of that fireball have long surpassed a standard Great Fireball."

"Your Nintaijutsu is also very good, you just lack systematic training. Considering how inconspicuous you were before, Jin, and that you didn't have access to the clan's profound cultivation methods."

"So, it's understandable!"

"Furthermore, your use of the Sharingan is too crude."

"The reason I could defeat you so easily is because I received elite education from the clan since childhood, not to mention I have my grandfather's cultivation manual."

"What I've learned, whether it's Nintaijutsu or the usage of the Sharingan, is the refined essence from countless seniors in the clan."

"So, your defeat isn't really anything to be ashamed of."

"From now on, you'll train with me, and I'll naturally teach you these things slowly!"

"So, don't rush."

Shisui's tone was very gentle, and Uchiha Jin felt much better.

However, he was also very clear in his heart that while what Shisui said might have some truth to it, Shisui's strength was definitely the main factor.

The reason was simple!

He had seen the spars of the clan's so-called "geniuses." The pressure they gave him was nowhere comparable to what Shisui could manage.

So.

Looking at Shisui, who was gently instructing him before his eyes, Uchiha Jin's heart couldn't help but soften.

Perhaps Shisui had other motives for approaching him, but he was truly sincere in his treatment of him.

Could he really watch this gentle-hearted Shisui die?
