Breaking the Formation

"Weak?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yue's assessment, Sasori of the Red Sands's Kakuzu twitched violently with rage as he angrily declared, "Uchiha Yue, I'd like to see how you break my secret technique!"

"Boom..."

The instant Sasori of the Red Sands arrived, Uchiha Yue saw Sasori of the Red Sands controlling three puppets that attacked him directly. Moreover, the three puppets that attacked Uchiha Yue were also using the Sato Clan's One-Sword Style. Using his Purple Eye to observe the katana in the hands of the three puppets, Uchiha Yue could vaguely perceive traces of chakra attached to them.

Seeing that the katana held by the three puppets actually contained a trace of chakra, Uchiha Yue suddenly raised his eyebrows, and his gaze towards Sasori of the Red Sands changed. This was because Uchiha Yue now realized that the chakra used by the three puppets did not match Sasori of the Red Sands's chakra fluctuations. That is, the chakra on the katana held by the puppets was not Sasori of the Red Sands's own chakra, but rather the chakra that Sasori of the Red Sands had condensed within the puppets' bodies when creating them.

Recalling the original story, Uchiha Yue remembered that Sasori of the Red Sands was able to control the Third Kazekage's puppets in battle, and even use the Third Kazekage's most famous Iron Sand Technique. A look of sudden realization flashed in his eyes. Clearly, Sasori of the Red Sands had begun researching real humanoid puppets. Perhaps the puppets he controlled now were originally samurai with chakra, but were only half-finished products created after Sasori of the Red Sands killed them.

Therefore, Uchiha Yue felt that Sasori of the Red Sands, who was standing in front of him, had begun to truly show his abilities.

After all, Sasori of the Red Sands is already capable of creating a semi-finished humanoid puppet. Presumably, it will only take him a few years to create a perfect humanoid puppet. In a few years, Sasori of the Red Sands may very well achieve what is depicted in the original story: not only will he be able to kill the Third Kazekage with his powerful Puppet Technique, but he will also have the means to stand proudly in the Shinobi World.

When Uchiha Yue realized the threat Sasori of the Red Sands in front of him, his determination to cripple Sasori of the Red Sands became even stronger.

As for why Uchiha Yue wanted to kill Sasori of the Red Sands, it was because Uchiha Yue had touched a nerve and injured his comrade!

"Whoosh..."

Just as Sasori of the Red Sands controlled three puppets to attack Uchiha Yue easily dodged the attacks of the three puppets with Basic Shatter Step. Moreover, just as Uchiha Yue had dodged the attacks of the three puppets, his figure suddenly appeared in front of the remaining puppets.

However, Sasori of the Red Sands already had a way to deal with the situation. He then controlled the puppet closest to Uchiha Yue and launched a hidden weapon.

However, despite noticing the incoming hidden weapons, Uchiha Yue showed no sign of panic; instead, a faint smile appeared on his face.

Then, Uchiha Yue smiled and looked at Sasori of the Red Sands, saying calmly, "Sasori of the Red Sands, your secret techniques have far too many weaknesses!"

"The first weakness is that some of the information you have about me is outdated!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Yue suddenly sheathed his Fubuki Tachi and prepared to use his hands to block the hidden weapons launched by the puppets.

Immediately afterwards...

Uchiha Yue controlled his spiritual energy, using his Purple Eye' perception to its fullest extent. He quickly discerned the trajectories of the incoming Uchiha Yue. However, Sasori of the Red Sands was well aware of just how powerful Uchiha Yue's perception was. Therefore, whenever Sasori of the Red Sands launched projectiles, he disregarded costs, controlling his puppets to unleash a barrage of projectiles, making it impossible for Uchiha Yue to block them even if he could perceive their trajectories.

However, just as Uchiha Yue said, Sasori of the Red Sands's understanding of the situation was somewhat outdated!

The next second, just as Sasori of the Red Sands thought Uchiha Yue was about to use the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist and dodged the hidden weapons...

Suddenly, a dense chakra light burst forth from Uchiha Yue's hands!

"Back!"

"Whoosh..."

That's right, the technique Uchiha Yue used to block those hidden weapons at this moment was the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga Clan, Return!

It's important to know that Uchiha Yue had already learned the method of using the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist from Hyuga Anya. Therefore, when Uchiha Yue was studying the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist, he not only mastered the pressure point techniques and Eight Trigrams Palm of the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist, but also mastered the usage techniques of the Hyuga Clan's Return through continuous research.

Then, you can see the hidden weapons flying towards you, all of which are blocked by Uchiha Yue.

After all, the Hyuga Clan's return technique is the best way to block hidden weapons!

No matter how many hidden weapons attacked, they could not break through that airtight defense!

After using the backhand to block the incoming projectiles, Uchiha Yue suddenly Hand Seals and used the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist.

At this moment, even Sasori of the Red Sands was somewhat confused as to why Uchiha Yue hadn't used the Falling Moon Style: Afterimage Fist to dodge earlier. However, when Uchiha Yue reappeared, a look of shock suddenly appeared in Sasori of the Red Sands's eyes. Because Uchiha Yue had just arrived in front of the puppet furthest away from Sasori of the Red Sands!

"The second weakness, Sasori of the Red Sands!"

Even if you can control ten puppets at the same time, your control weakens the further away the puppet is from you!

Upon reaching this point, Uchiha Yue noticed the puppet in front of him. As expected, it didn't immediately dodge, and the smile on Uchiha Yue lips deepened. Without the slightest hesitation, he delivered a powerful punch to the puppet. Even though Sasori of the Red Sands had deliberately used sturdy materials to create the puppet, its defenses were utterly useless against Uchiha Yue's Monster Strength!

"Boom..."

He shattered the puppet with a single punch, and with his other hand, he used the Falling Moon Blade Aura to sever all the Chakra Threads!

At this moment, Uchiha Yue finally succeeded in destroying one of Sasori of the Red Sands's puppets, but that was only the beginning!

Immediately, Uchiha Yue repeated the same method, shattering Sasori of the Red Sands's two puppets in the blink of an eye.

However, the more puppets Uchiha Yue destroyed, the stronger Sasori of the Red Sands's ability to control them became. After all, Sasori of the Red Sands possessed the ability to control ten puppets simultaneously, and now that he had three fewer puppets to control, he naturally became more adept at controlling the remaining ones.

However, Uchiha Yue noticed that Sasori of the Red Sands's control over the puppets had become stronger, which only strengthened his belief in victory.

Immediately afterwards...

Uchiha Yue once again gripped the Fubuki Tachi in his right hand and unleashed the third weakness of his secret technique on Sasori of the Red Sands!

"Sasori of the Red Sands, the third weakness of your secret technique is..."

You underestimated my group combat capabilities!
