Too Much Nonsense

"Brat, you're finished!"

Watching Uchiha Itachi with nowhere left to dodge, Xing Yuxiang's lips curled into a sinister, ghastly smile.

He recalled the humiliation he had suffered at the hands of the Uchiha clan, especially the way they had looked down on him from on high, shattering his dignity into pieces!

Only by tormenting a genius of the Uchiha clan could he find satisfaction in his heart.

"Creating a path to survival in a desperate situation is what a ninja ought to do."

Uchiha Itachi's black eyes flickered incessantly!

Hum!

The next moment!

A scarlet flash!

A pair of single-tomoe Sharingan glowed with a crimson light.

"Sharingan? How is this possible?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo stood up abruptly!

Their eyes erupted with a scorching radiance!

"The Sharingan! Uchiha Itachi has awakened the Sharingan at the age of eight!"

The two exchanged a glance.

In their eyes lay resolve and an unwillingness to yield.

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Uchiha Itachi must never fall into the hands of the Root!"

Shimura Danzo: "Such powerful strength must be grasped in my hands!"

Greed shot from their eyes.

Only, the greed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes was hidden, while the greed in Shimura Danzo's was completely undisguised!

Tenaka Ono let out a sharp shout, his hands weaving seals rapidly: "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"

Boom!

Chakra transformed into pure power at his lips, instantly gushing forth from his mouth to become a massive fireball that blasted toward Uchiha Itachi!

Uchiha Itachi's figure was quickly engulfed by the fireball!

The fireball exploded with a roar!

"So what if you're a genius? You're still just a brat who hasn't been through a real fight!"

But at that moment, a calm voice sounded in his ear: "You lost."

A cold sensation arrived—the icy tip of a kunai!

Tenaka Ono's entire body stiffened!

He turned his head slowly to see Uchiha Itachi's calm, scarlet Sharingan.

At this moment, the kunai was pressed against his throat.

"An outstanding battle!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up abruptly, clapping his hands in excitement.

A brilliant light erupted from his eyes!

Using the Substitution Jutsu in advance to anticipate the enemy's movements—this keen intuition was extremely rare, even among the strong!

Most importantly, Xing Yuxiang's strength was already that of a Chunin, yet he had still been defeated by Uchiha Itachi!

An eight-year-old Chunin.

Awakened the single-tomoe Sharingan.

He must be kept under his own control!

Shimura Danzo's eyes flickered with even more sinister greed!

"The first match is won by Uchiha Itachi. For the second match, Hyuga Kagami will face Akimichi Hara and Murakami No!"

As the referee spoke, Hyuga Kagami walked onto the training ground.

Opposite him stood Akimichi Hara and Murakami No. Even though both of them were older than Hyuga Kagami, on the training ground, it was as if the tall and sturdy Hyuga Kagami were the older and stronger one!

"Huh?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the figure on the field, standing tall and straight like a green bamboo: "This aura... how overbearing!"

His pupils constricted, a trace of shock hidden deep within his gaze!

The white-robed figure standing there was clearly just a youth!

Yet, he gave off the impression of an invincible powerhouse!

He furrowed his brows: "Could it be that Hyuga Kagami... truly possesses some hidden ability?"

Aura could not be faked!

Shimura Danzo glanced at Hyuga Kagami dismissively, then slowly closed his eyes.

"A brat from the Hyuga Clan? No matter how strong he is, so what?"

"He is nothing more than a bird trapped in a cage."

A flicker of displeasure crossed his face.

The ability to imprison subordinates was something that should be mastered by him alone!

The Hyuga Clan... truly an annoying clan!

On the martial arts field.

Akimichi Hara greeted him kindly: "Then let us begin the match, be careful!"

Hyuga Kagami nodded.

People of the Akimichi Clan generally had no malicious intent and possessed kind personalities.

"Hmph, Hara, we are ninjas here to evaluate the other party's strength; we must not be the slightest bit lax!"

Murakami No let out a cold snort, his lips curling into a sinister arc.

He stared at Hyuga Kagami with jealousy. "Only a harsh match can let these geniuses know the cruelty of the ninja world!"

Hyuga Kagami's eyes turned cold, and he scoffed: "So much nonsense; is your capacity limited to just running your mouth?"

"You! Baka!"
