Facing such an extreme situation, Uchiha Sou still chose to take the initiative!

He didn't know if it was truly effective or if it was just a psychological effect, but amidst the pain in his left arm, he seemed able to ignore the numbness brought on by the lightning.

His eyes were scarlet, and the three tomoe were spinning rapidly; in an instant, he lunged directly toward Raiga Kurosuki!

This wasn't because he looked down on Raiga Kurosuki; on the contrary, this Mist Ninja who excelled in Lightning Style posed a greater threat to him.

But in the world of ninjas, intelligence is everything!

Unlike Juzo Biwa, who was instantly killed by the Fourth Mizukage in the original story, Uchiha Sou had relevant memories regarding Raiga Kurosuki's combat style and his specialties.

"Naive!"

Raiga Kurosuki also noticed Uchiha Sou's reaction, which made his already foul mood even worse.

With two of them attacking together, this guy actually turned around and came straight for him, which meant this guy didn't put him in his eyes at all!

Having already been tricked by the Sharingan genjutsu and nearly killed, he was filled with resentment toward Uchiha Sou, and now he loathed this brat to the extreme.

He spun the ninja sword in his hand fiercely, keeping one in a defensive stance while aiming the other directly at Uchiha Sou's heart!

"Hmph!"

Raiga Kurosuki's movements were all seen by Uchiha Sou. He let out a cold snort, and mid-lunge, his body performed three astonishingly strange deflections in succession.

Such deflections allowed him to dodge the ninja sword thrust by Raiga Kurosuki, while simultaneously leaving enough room to evade a strike from Juzo Biwa behind him, and he drove the kunai in his hand toward Raiga Kurosuki's chest!

"Such body coordination, this guy..."

Whether it was Raiga Kurosuki or Juzo Biwa, they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows the moment they saw this movement.

They didn't think they could perform such an action; this had nothing to do with the strength of their taijutsu, but relied entirely on physical talent!

Looking at such physical talent, then looking at the guy's three-tomoe Sharingan, and most importantly, the fact that this guy was likely the commander causing significant trouble for Kirigakure.

Such a person, such a young man, they could not let him go no matter what!

"Go to hell!"

Raiga Kurosuki's face turned vicious. He didn't evade in the slightest; instead, he twisted his waist violently to avoid his vitals, and the ninja sword in his hand didn't retreat but advanced, slashing fiercely toward Uchiha Sou!

Puchi!

Uchiha Sou's kunai slashed fiercely across Raiga Kurosuki's body, opening a gash in his left flank, and blood splattered out along the kunai.

However, Uchiha Sou didn't have it easy either. Although he twisted his body violently once more at the most critical moment, Raiga Kurosuki's swing this time was extremely fierce. The electric current combined with the gale force generated by his immense strength also slashed fiercely across Uchiha Sou's chest.

This caused a streak of crimson to appear on Uchiha Sou's chest, and the sensation of pain stimulated his brain frantically.

Almost simultaneously, Juzo Biwa appeared above him, holding the Kubikiribōchō and swinging it down with force toward the top of his head, his technique ruthless and practiced.

Although Raiga Kurosuki was in immense pain from the kunai, he gritted his teeth and coordinated with Juzo Biwa, pulling his body back and then kicking out toward Uchiha Sou!

"Damn guy!"

Uchiha Sou cursed under his breath. He immediately used his left elbow to forcefully block the leg Raiga Kurosuki kicked over.

At the same time, he stomped his feet hard on the ground, erupting with chakra once more, and leaped backward rapidly.

The three figures crossed for an instant but were immediately pulled apart, with a large spray of blood drifting in the air.

After landing, Uchiha Sou's left shoulder twitched slightly, blood streaming down, and a sharp pain spread through his nerves; he knew he was not lightly injured.

His left shoulder, which he had already stabbed himself, had now been struck fiercely by Juzo Biwa, making his expression very grim.

He could determine that the bone was now injured. Even if he could force himself to endure the pain, the impact on his speed, strength, and reaction time was an unavoidable fact.

Although he could proudly conclude that the results of his training over the past half-year were very good.

He could achieve a one-hit kill without relying on the sneak attack of the Body Flicker Technique, and could fully rely on taijutsu and the Sharingan to contend with two members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist in the thick fog!

Such a level was considered very good even within Konoha, and if his age were taken into account, there were probably few who could compare to him.

But it wasn't enough; it was still far from enough!

At least for him, this level of intensity was still a long way off!

"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!"

"Lightning Style: Thunder Ball!"

Raiga Kurosuki and Juzo Biwa clearly noticed Uchiha Sou's condition. They quickly formed hand seals, and without a moment's pause, launched another surprise attack on him.

The trouble level of this battle was somewhat unexpected. If not for their remaining shred of ninja pride, which kept them from attacking Uchiha Shizuka, she would already be a corpse by now!

Of course, there was also their intention to be the first to finish off Uchiha Sou, but now they were frustrated, and they realized that it would likely be difficult for either of them to handle him alone.

Facing these two ninjutsu, Uchiha Sou gritted his teeth. His spirit and energy were highly concentrated at this moment, and the three tomoe in his Sharingan were also spinning rapidly.

Suddenly, he seemed to be able to feel the rate of his heartbeat, the flow of his blood, the pulse of his veins, and even the depth of the wounds on his body, and which range of movement would have the least impact on his injuries.

Not only that, even the weaknesses of the two techniques rushing toward him seemed to be visible to him!

Such a feeling is truly marvelous.

Uchiha Sou couldn't help but murmur in his heart; everything seemed to have begun to slow down in his eyes.

However, he soon found himself frowning involuntarily, because he could clearly perceive that this transformation had not yet reached its end, yet an invisible "wall" was blocking his path!

This wall was so solid that it seemed to obstruct every avenue for Uchiha Sou to continue such a transformation, leaving him feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

But he knew very well that now was not the time to dwell on such things; he still had a battle to continue!

His eyes focused once again, and as he watched the approaching ninjutsu, Uchiha Sou's expression suddenly turned ferocious.

"Hah!"

With an angry shout, the kunai in his hand radiated a brilliant azure glow, and under his guidance, it slashed fiercely toward the water dragon rushing head-on at him.

In an instant, the kunai pierced deeply into the weakest point of the Water Dragon Jutsu as perceived by his eyes.

His body lunged forward violently, and while dodging the Lightning Style: Thunder Ball from behind, he drove the kunai in his hand to cleave the water dragon in two!

After completing this, he accelerated once more, leaping forward to avoid the water stains on the ground, where the lightning and water mingled together, appearing exceptionally dazzling.

Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki pursued him frantically once again; they were absolutely not going to let this opportunity slip by!

Yet, as they gave chase, they seemed to sense that the aura of this Uchiha brat before them had become somewhat different.
