The Blade Light That Blotted Out the Sky
"That's impossible!"
Fushimi Saburo stared at Naruto in disbelief, then gritted his teeth and forcefully broke the arm that Naruto was holding.
Thud--
Naruto casually tossed the severed limbs aside. "What's impossible?"
"It's absolutely impossible for anyone to instantly increase their strength by this much!"
Fushimi Saburo quickly moved away from Naruto, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, his eyes filled with terror.
Naruto's lips curled into a slight smile, and his figure vanished in an instant.
A sense of crisis Fushimi Saburo's heart. Ignoring the pain of his severed arm, he instantly assumed a defensive stance.
That's just what you think.
Naruto's indifferent voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Fushimi Saburo's body stiffened instantly, a sharp pain shooting through his chest.
Thump--
Thump--
Thump--
Fushimi Saburo's gaze slowly moved downwards, and a rapidly beating heart came into view.
This is...
His heart?
"So, even a disgusting race like yours has a red heart?"
Naruto's voice came through, filled with astonishment.
Fushimi Saburo tried to reach for his heart, but the movement became difficult to maintain, and his vision grew increasingly dim.
Thump--
Fushimi Saburo's massive body crashed to the ground, still twitching slightly.
His presence gradually faded away.
Final...
Vanished into nothingness!
Fushimi Genshin lowered his arms, which were crossed over his chest, and stared at Naruto with narrowed eyes.
This alien race has truly reached a pseudo-immortal realm!
In Naruto's actions just now, he sensed a hint of order.
That's speed!
A terrifying speed that can barely break through the constraints of time and space!
Such speed is only possible after comprehending a certain set of rules!
But as Fushimi Saburo said, how could that be???
How can an ant grow into an elephant in an instant?
On the hillside.
Apart from Uchiha Kei, everyone else watched Naruto in silence.
The mountain-like, dense Chakra made everyone feel suffocated!
Even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama were no exception!
Namikaze Minato's mouth was wide open, and glistening saliva was almost dripping down his throat.
Is this his son?
What a joke!
If we take him as the unit of measurement, then Naruto in his current state could kill at least ten Namikaze Minato with a single slap.
Even more!
Uchiha Izuna frowned slightly.
Amidst Naruto's surging, mountain-like Chakra, he vaguely sensed something constantly slipping away.
As this substance disappeared, Naruto's strength continued to rise, rise, and rise again!
Just now I was only at the stage of breaking through to the pseudo-immortal realm, but now I'm almost at the middle stage of the pseudo-immortal realm!
"Teacher..."
Uchiha Izuna couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to stop Naruto?"
He didn't know what that thing was that was slipping away.
But he knew one thing: to gain something, you must inevitably lose something else.
Naruto is in this state right now.
That which has passed...
It might be life!
Uchiha Kei shook his head. "Stopping him is useless. We might as well let him go all out and experience what a pseudo-immortal realm is like."
Uchiha Izuna breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Given the relationship between Naruto and his teacher, the teacher couldn't just watch Naruto trade his life for temporary strength.
Since the teacher said that, it means that Naruto's life is at least not in danger.
But what is it that has been lost?
Uchiha Kei's gaze lingered on Naruto for only a moment before turning in another direction.
There...
It was Sasuke, whose neck was Fushimi Jiro.
Fushimi Jiro saw that Fushimi Saburo, whose strength far surpassed his own, was killed in a few moves.
The hand gripping Sasuke's neck loosened slightly, almost unconsciously.
Sasuke seized the opportunity and instantly activated the Heaven Force Hand, exchanging it with the Kunai scattered on the ground.
"Cough cough--"
Sasuke first created some distance, then began coughing violently.
Coughing until his eyes were bloodshot, Sasuke slowly raised his head and looked at Naruto on the other side.
That terrifying aura gave him an urge to kneel down.
Why...
Why did Naruto become so strong?!
No matter how hard he tries, why can he only keep chasing after Naruto?
Is he destined to be worse than Naruto?
Sasuke's eyes grew increasingly red, as if they were about to drip blood.
"Ah!"
Sasuke suddenly raised his head, stomped his feet on the ground, and rushed towards Fushimi Jiro from a bow.
No way!
Sasuke is also a prodigy of the Uchiha Clan, and there's no way he could be inferior to Uzumaki Naruto!
Even if it means death, he wants to prove himself!
With the Ninja Blade in my hand!
"Die! Die! Die!"
Sasuke squeezed out Chakra in his body, and bright red blood dripped from his Rinnegan.
A Blade Intent that was fearless and ready to die slowly condensed.
With each step he took, each roar he let out, energy coalesced at an incredible speed.
Boom--
The clear sky gradually began to change as the terrifying Blade Intent continued to gather.
Thick, dark clouds loomed overhead, making it hard for people to breathe.
Fushimi Jiro naturally sensed this change as well, but only his eyes flickered slightly.
Sasuke's aura was still at the Kage Level, not yet at the Sage of Six Paths level.
Such an attack would at most give him some trouble.
"A noisy alien race."
Fushimi Jiro a low growl and slapped Sasuke with one hand.
The energy instantly burst forth, forming a gigantic energy hand that blotted out the sky, accompanied by a raging wind, and smashed towards Sasuke.
When--
Sasuke had no defense whatsoever and crashed head-on into the giant energy hand.
The terrifying impact created ripples that spread far and wide.
Sasuke's body was as small as an ant in front of the mountain-like energy giant hand.
Unsurprisingly, he was slapped away violently, flying in a bright red arc.
"Sasuke!!"
Naruto's anger surged, and in an instant, he appeared in front of Fushimi Jiro.
His hand, sharp as a sword, was about to pierce through Fushimi Jiro's chest.
Fushimi Jiro's pupils contracted sharply as a strong sense of death washed over him.
He is...
"Mine!"
Sasuke stumbled to his feet, standing with great difficulty.
Naruto paused, then slowly looked at Sasuke.
When Naruto heart skipped a beat.
After a moment of silence, Naruto slowly withdrew his hand and stood to the side.
"Good."
Kaba--
Sasuke, carrying his Ninja Blade, took a very difficult step.
Every bone in his body seemed to groan in agony.
"I once thought that as long as I lived, I would one day surpass you."
Taking another step forward, Sasuke's lips curled slightly.
Naruto moved his lips slightly, but ultimately remained silent.
"But I have to admit, people really are different."
Sasuke a self-deprecating laugh and took another step forward.
"So..."
Sasuke stopped and slowly raised his Chunin sword.
Compared to the terrifying Blade Intent he possessed before, the Blade Intent on his Ninja Blade now seemed pitifully weak.
"For the bond between us, I'd rather die..."
Click--
The gloomy sky was suddenly ripped open, and bright sunlight shone on Sasuke's face.
Handsome and resilient!
"Prove yourself!"
"Cut!!!"
Boom--
A deafening roar, like the sky collapsing, resounded as an extremely solid blade of light burst forth from the cleaved sky!
Fushimi Jiro was dumbfounded.
He admitted that he had been a bit arrogant and spoke a bit too loudly before.
But was it really necessary to unleash such a powerful attack right away?
This is going to be completely ruined!
Fushimi Jiro tried to run away.
But a surging, overwhelming Blade Intent descended from the sky, locking onto him and rendering him completely immobile.
Only...
They watched helplessly as the overwhelming blade of light descended.
Slicing through the sky, tearing apart space, shattering...
His body!
