Nuibari's pointed tip reflected a dazzling glint as it shot toward Kawadera Uchiha.
Kawadera Uchiha flung out a shrapnel explosive tube with a backhanded motion.
The two weapons passed each other, but Chozuki Hozuki flicked his wrist. The steel wire behind Nuibari swayed and lashed against the side of the shrapnel explosive tube like a long snake.
Kawadera Uchiha had no choice but to detonate the multiplying explosive tube early.
Chozuki Hozuki leaped to the side, avoiding the shrapnel.
The shrieking shrapnel had made Chozuki Hozuki turn serious.
This kid had some skill.
After missing its target, Nuibari pierced through a corpse. Chozuki Hozuki tugged the steel wire, and Nuibari returned to his hand.
Yet the wire remained threaded through the corpse, leaving a concealed wire stretched across the ground.
Chozuki Hozuki moved with incredible speed, throwing Nuibari again and again.
Kawadera Uchiha's Sharingan caught Nuibari every time.
"Give it up, you skinny mutt from the Hōzuki Clan. Your little enoki mushroom can't escape my Sharingan's tracking."
Why did this Uchiha love hurling insults so much?
He had heard that the Uchiha Clan had vile temperaments. It seemed the rumors were true.
Chozuki Hozuki said nothing, merely throwing Nuibari over and over.
Until a certain moment.
Long Sword Ninja Art: Ground Spider Stitch!
The wires on the ground suddenly sprang up, slicing toward Kawadera Uchiha's ankles.
If they hit, Kawadera Uchiha's legs would be severed by the razor-sharp wires.
The wires also shredded the corpses on the ground, cutting them into nearly uniform chunks, each only a few cubic centimeters in size.
However, Kawadera Uchiha had already prepared for this.
Unease suddenly rose in Chozuki Hozuki's heart.
What was wrong?
Genjutsu!
Chozuki Hozuki suddenly realized that despite all their fierce fighting, the Uchiha across from him had never used genjutsu!
