Kicking Indra

Inuzuka Kiba turned his head speechlessly, giving up on communicating with someone whose brain was occupied by food, and looked at the calm Nara Shikamaru.

Nara Shikamaru looked toward the field; his opinion was the same as Naruto's, and he said, "It's unlikely he'll win."

Their gazes turned to the two people on the training ground.

"That is the invincible Uchiha!"

The Uchiha clan had always possessed the legend of being invincible in one-on-one combat.

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Akimichi Denji, pondering how to let Akimichi Denji lose with a bit of dignity.

His older brother told him to make friends with Denji.

As for Akimichi Denji's Strength of a Hundred, in his view, it was just so-so; although the power was considerable, his footwork was unsteady and his speed was slow.

Relying on his own dynamic vision, it would be very easy to dodge.

As an invincible Uchiha, although he had not yet awakened his eyes, he had already received guidance within the clan before Ninja Academy.

Aiming for his older brother, he practiced day and night, with two and a half years of training under his belt.

And Akimichi Denji had only just returned to the village, having received ninja training for no more than two or three days.

In any case, two and a half years versus three days—the advantage is mine!

This battle must display the style of the Uchiha and the grace of the Uchiha!

Uchiha Sasuke smiled confidently: "You make the first move."

Akimichi Denji curled his lips and ran toward the Uchiha.

Average speed. Easy to dodge.

Uchiha Sasuke's lips curled slightly, feeling that victory was certain.

He only needed to shift his feet to the side, and he could take the opportunity to use his opponent's momentum to counterattack.

But the moment they closed in, Sasuke was shocked.

How could this be?

So fast! This wasn't the speed from before.

He couldn't dodge it.

Sasuke tried to shift his feet, but unfortunately, he was a step too slow.

Akimichi Denji's fist struck his face hard.

Uchiha Sasuke stumbled back a few steps, seeing stars.

He felt a warm flow from his nose and wiped away the blood that had trickled out.

His gaze became grave.

How did he suddenly get faster?

Akimichi Denji smiled, not intending to give him a chance to react, and charged forward.

He moved as fast as the wind.

This time, Uchiha Sasuke was prepared and dodged to the side.

He took the opportunity to raise his leg, kicking at Denji's side.

Denji saw it, pushed off the ground with his feet, rotated with the momentum, and raised his leg in a horizontal sweep.

The two legs collided in mid-air, emitting a loud bang.

In the struggle of strength, the Uchiha was kicked down.

He let out a cry of pain, lost his balance entirely, and couldn't stop himself from falling, landing on the ground.

His mind went blank, and he muttered: "How could this be? How are you so fast?"

Akimichi Denji smiled slightly, reached out a hand to him, and pulled him up.

Akimichi Denji slowly explained: "Just now when fighting Naruto, I used 'Strength of a Hundred'; you only saw my punching power double. But in reality, this ninjutsu has another application: it can be imbued into the feet. Naturally, my speed increased."

It's "Strange Foot," I used "Strange Foot"!

In fact, what Akimichi Denji said was simple, but gathering chakra in other parts of the body is not an easy process.

In the original work, Tsunade gathered her Strength of a Hundred into her feet, calling it the "Heavenly Pain Kick."

Essentially, it was also "Strength of a Hundred," just considered another way of using it.

Someone like Tsunade is the most cunning; she takes her great strength and insists on calling it the ninjutsu "Heavenly Pain Kick."

Training Ground No. 5 was silent; everyone stared at the two people in the field, dumbfounded.

No one could have predicted this outcome.

Even Nara Shikamaru could not maintain his calm demeanor, his mouth hanging wide open.

Haruno Sakura's face was full of disbelief.

Even Yamanaka Ino, who had been supporting Akimichi Denji, held an unexpected glint in her eyes beneath her golden bangs.

Hyuga Hinata let out a breath of relief; she had been nervous for Akimichi Denji the entire time.

But now it seemed that Denji-kun was indeed handling things with ease.

Uzumaki Naruto wore a look of pure shock, never having expected that even Sasuke could be defeated. Then, a thought crossed his mind: I was defeated by Akimichi Denji, but Uchiha Sasuke was also defeated by Akimichi Denji.

Doesn't that mean I am on the same level as Uchiha Sasuke?

Suddenly, he felt his injuries ache a little less, and he broke into a silly, grinning laugh.

"Ding, Wish [Agreed to be dead last together] completed for Uzumaki Naruto. Wish Point +1."

"Awesome!" Yamanaka Ino was the first to react.

Uchiha Sasuke stood up, performed the Seal of Reconciliation, and walked back into the crowd, still unable to believe that he had actually lost.

Uzumaki Naruto walked up, patted him on the shoulder, and consoled him, "It's okay! I got beaten too. Don't be so discouraged."

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Naruto in disbelief; he could read the faint, underlying implication in Naruto's words.

I've actually fallen to the same level as Naruto?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and his usually cold little face turned bright red.

Naruto kept talking, rambling on, "It's fine, we can just fight back later. Losing to Akimichi Denji couldn't be helped, after all, his strength is just too immense."

"We"? "We"?

An inexplicable emotion brewed in Sasuke's heart. He could no longer stand Naruto's words and roared, "Shut up!"

Naruto was stunned by the shout. He looked at Sasuke's eyes and then stammered incoherently, "Sasuke... your... your eyes are bleeding!"

"Go see a doctor, quick!"

The crowd also covered their mouths in surprise, staring at Uchiha Sasuke as if he were a monster.

Bleeding? Impossible. I can see clearly.

Wait!

Nara Shikamaru could no longer maintain his composure, muttering blankly, "Awakened... the eyes? Is this the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan?"

Uchiha Sasuke walked over to Haruno Sakura and said urgently, "A mirror! Give me your mirror!"

Haruno Sakura scrambled to pull a mirror from her waist and handed it to Uchiha Sasuke. To maintain her appearance in front of Sasuke, she always carried a mirror to fix her hair at any moment.

Looking through the mirror, Uchiha Sasuke saw his own red eyes, with a single tomoe spinning silently within them.

This was the Kekkei Genkai that made the Uchiha famous throughout the ninja world, an existence that struck fear into the hearts of enemies, and the renowned symbol of the Uchiha clan: the Sharingan.

It was also the reason why the ninja world was jokingly referred to as the legend of eyes.

"Hahaha!" Uchiha Sasuke could not control the ecstasy in his heart and burst into loud laughter.

An Uchiha who has not awakened the Sharingan cannot be considered a true Uchiha.

Conversely, every Uchiha who possesses the Sharingan becomes a core pillar of the clan and a rising star of the Uchiha.

The Sharingan can automatically elevate a ninja's strength by a tier. If Uchiha Sasuke was only at the level of a genin before, then now, with the Sharingan, he could rival a chunin.

Even though it was only a one-tomoe Sharingan, it meant his life had entered a smooth path.

Even Uchiha Itachi had awakened his eyes later than this. Itachi had awakened his Sharingan after graduating from the Ninja Academy, following the unfortunate death of his teammate Tenma. He had been eight years old at the time.

Most Uchiha awaken their eyes accompanied by the passing of friends or loved ones.

Yet, he had awakened the Sharingan simply during a sparring match.

Realizing that he might be a genius even more brilliant than his brother, Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but laugh even more brazenly.

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Akimichi Denji and said with effortless arrogance, "I have to thank you! You let me awaken my eyes. Now, I am invincible!"

"Ding, Wish [Invincible Uchiha] completed for Uchiha Sasuke. Wish Point +1."
