Pathetic?

"Snort!"

Faced with Sasori of the Red Sands's provocation, Uchiha Yue snorted angrily and then broke through the encirclement again.

If Uchiha Yue could successfully break through the barrier of the puppets in front of him, he would be able to get close to Sasori of the Red Sands. He believed that Sasori of the Red Sands was currently defenseless. This was because controlling so many puppets at the same time had already exhausted Sasori of the Red Sands too much energy. Therefore, Sasori of the Red Sands stood completely still while using those puppets to attack Uchiha Yue.

But even if Uchiha Yue saw through the puppet formation's weakness, so what?

In truth, Sasori of the Red Sands had long anticipated the flaw in his secret technique; in fact, he knew it even better than Uchiha Yue. Now, if Sasori of the Red Sands were facing two ninjas, he would have no chance of using the puppet formation. After all, using the Sasori of the Red Sands to fight two ninjas simultaneously, Sasori of the Red Sands secret technique would be broken simply by one of them reaching Sasori of the Red Sands.

Unfortunately, Sasori of the Red Sands developed this secret technique specifically to counter Uchiha Yue.

Therefore, Sasori of the Red Sands could only use this secret technique to attack when facing only Uchiha Yue.

Even if Uchiha Yue could see through the weakness of his secret technique, he would be helpless!

Immediately afterwards...

Sasori of the Red Sands brought three more puppets to Uchiha Yue's front, preparing to use them to Uchiha Yue at close range. At the same time, Uchiha Yue realized that since he couldn't attack Sasori of the Red Sands's Sasori of the Red Sands, he would wait for them to attack. Then, just as Sasori of the Red Sands's three puppets attacked, Uchiha Yue gripped his Fubuki Tachi, ready to counterattack.

But...

Just as Uchiha Yue was about to counterattack, Uchiha Yue suddenly noticed that the three puppets in front of him were actually wielding katanas and using swordsmanship!

"Whoosh..."

"Whoosh..."

"Whoosh..."

For a moment, Sasori of the Red Sands, controlling three puppets, simultaneously launched an attack on Uchiha Yue using swordsmanship.

Moreover, when Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to perceive the sword techniques used by the three puppets in front of him, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes!

"This... this is the One-Sword Style swordsmanship of the Sato Clan!"

At that moment, Uchiha Yue suddenly realized that the puppets controlled by Sasori of the Red Sands were all using sword techniques he was familiar with. It was from Uchiha Yue, a ninja from Kirigakure, that Sato Ryugan acquired the Sato Clan's One-Sword Style swordsmanship, eventually fusing it with the Hatake Clan's Hatake Sword Style to create the Falling Moon Style swordsmanship he used today. Therefore, seeing the puppets using the Sato Clan's One-Sword Style swordsmanship, Uchiha Yue couldn't help but be somewhat shocked.

However, just as surprise flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes, Sasori of the Red Sands sneered, "Uchiha Yue, do you think you're the only one in the Shinobi World who studies swordsmanship? That's right, I've been studying swordsmanship all this time in order to kill you! Coincidentally, our Sunagakure just happened to seize the One-Sword Style swordsmanship of the Sato Clan, and now I can control my puppet to use the Sato Clan's One-Sword Style swordsmanship to deal with you!"

At this point, Sasori of the Red Sands paused slightly, then, while controlling his puppet to attack, said, "Interestingly, Uchiha Yue, the Falling Moon Style sword technique you created seems to be a fusion of the Sato Clan's One-Sword Style sword technique, right? Perhaps if I were to use sword techniques against you, you would defeat me! However, as long as I control my puppet to use sword techniques against you, you will have absolutely no way to deal with it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sasori of the Red Sands's puppet went straight to Uchiha Yue and continued its attack using swordsmanship.

Furthermore, even as Uchiha Yue parried the puppets' sword techniques, he couldn't help but be alarmed by their skill. Undoubtedly, if Uchiha Yue hadn't mastered the Yagami Clan's secret technique, the Basic Shatter Step Uchiha Yue, he would likely have been defeated by the puppets' swordsmanship. This was because Sasori of the Red Sands, while researching the Sato Clan's Sato Clan -One-Sword Style swordsmanship, had also mastered its usage, making the puppets 'One-Sword Style attacks quite powerful.

Fortunately, Uchiha Yue was able to dodge the puppets' sword techniques using Basic Shatter Step footwork. However, Sasori of the Red Sands focused most of his energy on Uchiha Yue, leaving him no opportunity to attack the puppets. Whenever Uchiha Yue to destroy the puppets, Sasori of the Red Sands had to control them to use hidden weapons, which gradually made Uchiha Yue increasingly anxious.

"This is bad!"

"If this drags on any longer, my advantage will slowly slip away!"

Dodging the attacks of the puppets in front of him, Uchiha Yue remained calm and carefully analyzed the weaknesses of the puppet formation.

However, the puppets controlled by Sasori of the Red Sands were not only extremely powerful in close combat, but they were also equipped with countless hidden weapons, ready to suppress Uchiha Yue's counterattack at any time. Thus, surrounded by those puppets, Uchiha Yue used his Purple Eye to observe for a full ten minutes, but still failed to detect the weakness of Sasori of the Red Sands's secret technique.

However, just as Uchiha Yue frowned, feeling that his chakra was about to run out to deal with Sasori of the Red Sands...

Suddenly, Uchiha Yue caught a glimpse of the puppets that weren't attacking out of the corner of his eye, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes!

"Bang..."

Wielding his Fubuki Tachi, he parried the puppet's attack. Then, Uchiha Yue suddenly formed a hand Hand Seals and used the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist Uchiha Yue dodge the attacks. As he dodged all the Uchiha Yue's attacks, a confident smile appeared on his lips. Clearly, he had found Sasori of the Red Sands's true weakness in his secret technique.

However, Sasori of the Red Sands did not believe that his secret technique had any other weaknesses, so when he noticed the smile on Uchiha Yue's face, Sasori of the Red Sands sneered and said, "Uchiha Yue, you can still laugh?"

"Oh? Sasori of the Red Sands, why can't I laugh?"

Hearing Sasori of the Red Sands's words, Uchiha Yue's smile deepened, and he said to Sasori of the Red Sands, "Do you really think your secret technique can trap me forever? Or do you feel that the secret technique you developed to counter me has no weaknesses?"

"Weaknesses are, of course, present!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Sasori of the Red Sands confidently retorted, "But Uchiha Yue, do you think you can exploit a weakness to launch a counterattack?"

"Haha, you're so confident, Sasori of the Red Sands!"

Just as Sasori of the Red Sands arrived, Uchiha Yue suddenly looked up and laughed wildly a few times, then said:

"Okay, now I'll tell you!"

"Sasori of the Red Sands, the secret technique you've developed is utterly weak!"
