"Me and Mei Terumi, are we really that compatible?"
After realizing the unspoken understanding between himself and Mei Terumi, a question suddenly popped into Uchiha Yue's mind: Could it be that he and Mei Terumi shared a compatible elemental affinity, which was why they possessed such a level of understanding?
It's important to understand that Uchiha Tsuki had collaborated with other ninjas before teaming up with Terumi Mei. However, even when he was working with Hatake Kakashi, Tsuki could sense a barrier between them. In other words, if Tsuki were assisting Kakashi in fighting the two Sand Village Jonin, he felt Kakashi wouldn't perform as well as he did with Terumi Mei, and wouldn't be able to overpower the two Sand Village Jonin with his help.
Furthermore, it's important to remember that Hatake Kakashi was once Uchiha Yue's teammate. The two worked together for far longer than Uchiha Yue and Mei Terumi. In fact, Uchiha Yue and Hatake Kakashi worked together for a hundred times longer than he worked with Uchiha Yue Mei Terumi. This is why Uchiha Yue was so confused when he discovered that his synergy with Mei Terumi Uchiha Yue surpassed his synergy with Hatake Kakashi.
Subsequently, when this question arose in Uchiha Yue's mind, even he himself did not realize that his gaze towards Uchiha Yue Mei Terumi softened considerably.
It was perhaps because of this tacit cooperation that the relationship between Uchiha Yue and Mei Terumi took another step forward.
But...
At this moment, Uchiha Yue never expected that Mei Terumi had the same question in her mind.
When that question popped into Uchiha Yue's mind—whether he and Mei Terumi were truly compatible...
A question also arose in Mei Terumi's mind: were she and Uchiha Yue really that compatible?
Fortunately, both Uchiha Tsuki and Terumi Mei were well aware of their situation and didn't allow themselves to dwell on anything too strange. Therefore, their questions only lasted a few seconds before they focused on dealing with the two Sand Village Jonin in front of them. Clearly, both Uchiha Tsuki and Terumi Mei wanted to end the battle as quickly as possible and eliminate the two Sand Village Jonin.
As for those two Sand Village Jonin, they were in dire straits thanks to the seamless cooperation of Uchiha Tsuki and Terumi Mei!
Originally, the two Sand Village Jonin were capable of completely suppressing Mei Terumi; in fact, in their eyes, Mei Terumi was much easier to deal with than Uchiha Tsuki. Therefore, the two Sand Village Jonin believed that as long as they fought with all their might, they could definitely kill Mei Terumi in the shortest amount of time. Afterward, they would go and kill the nightmare in their minds—Uchiha Tsuki, who had slaughtered all their comrades.
However, to the utter surprise of the two Sand Village Jonin, when Mei Terumi was in dire straits, she suddenly erupted like Uchiha Tsuki had before!
No matter how well the two Sand Village Jonin coordinated, and no matter what attack methods they used against Terumi Mei, Terumi Mei was able to dodge their attacks every time. She was also able to anticipate the openings in their attacks and launch counterattacks in the most appropriate way. Gradually, the two Sand Village Jonin felt their strength waning, especially as they saw Terumi Mei gradually turn the tide. They were utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, especially considering their own serious injuries!
When they fought Uchiha Tsuki, the two Sand Village Jonin were already seriously injured.
Now that they've been entangled with Mei Terumi for so long, if those two Sand Village Jonin don't find a way to deal with Mei Terumi soon, they'll be the ones dying here sooner or later, not Mei Terumi!
Immediately afterwards...
As Uchiha Yue and Mei Terumi's cooperation became increasingly seamless, Mei Terumi's attacks became increasingly powerful...
The two Sand Village Jonin, who had been relentlessly suppressed, finally couldn't resist resorting to a risky tactic to launch a counterattack against Mei Terumi and seek a chance to win.
But with Uchiha Yue's purple eyes able to see through everything, could the scheme of those two Sand Village Jonin succeed?
The answer is, of course, no!
Just as the two Sand Village Jonin were preparing to take a risky approach to kill Terumi Mei as quickly as possible, Uchiha Tsukuyomi used his Purple Eyes to perceive the two Sand Village Jonin's chakra usage and thus discerned their intentions. However, since the two Sand Village Jonin were already plotting, Uchiha Tsukuyomi naturally had no need to remind them.
Immediately, in Mei Terumi's mind, Uchiha Yue's voice rang out once again.
"Mei Terumi, prepare for the final battle!"
"Those two Sunagakure bastards couldn't hold back any longer!"
"Knew!"
Upon hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Mei Terumi nodded vigorously, indicating that she understood what Uchiha Yue meant.
Then, the very next second after Mei Terumi replied to Tsukuyomi, the two Sand Village Jonin instantly attacked her, intending to kill her quickly. However, just as one of the Sand Village Jonin reached her, Tsukuyomi anticipated his attack and warned her, "Use the quick-step technique to move three steps to the right in three seconds, then two steps forward, and attack the Sand Village ninja in front of you!"
"Yes!"
No sooner had Uchiha Yue finished speaking Mei Terumi Uchiha Yue launched a counterattack as instructed by him.
If anyone familiar with the Yagami Clan were to see the footwork Mei Terumi is currently using, they would certainly be astonished.
Because Mei Terumi, who moved as instructed by Uchiha Yue, actually used the Basic Shatter Step while moving!
Moreover, Mei Terumi's mastery of the Basic Shatter Step looks as if she has practiced it for years!
Immediately afterwards...
Following Uchiha Tsuki's instructions, Mei Terumi used basic footwork to dodge the attack of the Sand Village Jonin...
Suddenly, Mei Terumi opened her eyes and thrust her kunai into the body of the Sand Village Jonin, instantly killing him!
At the same moment, just as Mei Terumi reaped the life of the first Sand Village Jonin, Uchiha Tsuki's voice once again resounded in Mei Terumi's mind.
Only...
This time, Mei Terumi is prepared to kill the last remaining Jonin from the Sand Village in her own way!
Then, just as the Sand Village Jonin behind Mei Terumi began to form hand seals, Mei Terumi suddenly turned around and completed her own hand seals before the Sand Village Jonin could finish!
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Destruction!"
"Boom..."
