"That's right, this is my swordsmanship!"
Uchiha Makoto nodded, watching Rasa's reaction with great interest.
Seeing their utterly horrified expressions is truly captivating!
"If this is all the strength you have, then you cannot defeat me."
"Use whatever other tricks you have up your sleeve, because you might not be able to use them anymore soon!"
As he spoke, Uchiha Makoto held his sword, waiting for Rasa's reaction.
Upon hearing Uchiha Makoto's words, Rasa's expression instantly shifted between light and dark.
As Uchiha Makoto said, if he didn't have more advanced methods, his life would probably have ended there!
But he has a way!
He has a way to defeat Uchiha Makoto!
He needs help!
With this thought in mind, Rasa turned his head to look at the old monk behind him with his hands clasped together.
"One-Tail helps me!"
His Kekkei Genkai is Magnet Release, which only allows him to control gold dust. However, if he had the assistance of the One-Tail, who is skilled in Magnet Release, the situation would be very different!
"Namo Amitabha Buddha!"
Fūfuku chanted a Buddhist prayer and closed his eyes under everyone's watchful eyes.
The sand around him seemed to have found its master, quickly flying towards his body and then entwining him.
This is the secret technique used by the Sand Village Jinchuriki to release the One-Tailed Shukaku—the Feigned Sleep Technique!
The user enters a deep sleep, surrendering their entire body to the Tailed Beast through a secret technique!
The next second, a fat tanuki, tens of meters long and covered with Curse Mark markings, appeared instantly!
One-Tail Shukaku, makes its appearance!
Uchiha Makoto looked up at the scene, and thought to himself, "This fat tanuki is actually quite tall!"
"Huh? Uchiha?"
Shukaku looked at the dozen or so Sharingan directly in front of him and couldn't help but let out a strange sound.
"You're unlucky to have run into me!"
Shukaku playfully swung its claws, forcing the people nearby to move away to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Uchiha Makoto was no exception; he used the Body Flicker Technique to leave his original spot and create distance between himself and Shukaku.
Once he had regained his footing, Uchiha Makoto looked at the grinning Shukaku.
"Hey, Shukaku!"
Uchiha Makoto shouted at Shukaku, successfully attracting its attention.
"Uchiha brat, you know my name?"
Shukaku asked curiously.
Not to mention others, even Fūfuku, who was its Jinchūriki, only learned its name a few years ago.
I've never heard of the Uchiha knowing the names of the Tailed Beast before, so how does this Uchiha in front of me know?
"Hey kid! How did you know my name?"
Shukaku crouched down, leaning closer to Uchiha Makoto, and spoke menacingly.
"Hey, Shukaku, I heard that when my ancestor distributed Chakra among you, Chakra was the least and the weakest!"
"The more tails Tailed Beast has, the stronger it is, don't you think?"
Uchiha Makoto said something that directly hit Shukaku's weak spot, successfully provoking Shukaku's anger!
"Kid! What kind of twisted logic is that? Did that evil Nine-Tails instill this in you?"
"Let me wake you up!"
Shukaku spoke, a wind-style Chakra ball condensed in his mouth.
"Wind Release: Sky Bullet Training!"
A low-powered version of the Tailed Beast Bomb erupted instantly, clearing a space directly in front of Shukaku!
Unfortunately, it was all bark and no bite; aside from a few unlucky souls, it had no effect whatsoever.
"Wind Release: Sand Scattering Bullet!"
Rasa, who was standing nearby, also seized the opportunity to attack, manipulating a large amount of sand to bombard Uchiha Makoto like a torrent of bullets!
"Susanoo!"
Uchiha Makoto out a low growl, and the blue-purple Susanoo ribs firmly protected him.
Even if Rasa summoned a lot of sand, even if the sand outside Susanoo was already piled up to a depth of two meters, Uchiha Makoto was not damaged in the slightest!
But it seems he's fallen into their trap?
Uchiha Makoto looked around at the situation and then focused his attention on Shukaku and the others.
At this moment, Rasa manipulated the sand gold to float behind Uchiha Makoto, forming an encirclement with Shukaku!
Shukaku grinned wickedly, slamming its two fat paws hard onto the ground, while Rasa raised her hands high.
"Combination Technique: Magnet Release - Desert Layer Great Burial Seal!"
The sand that was originally scattered around Uchiha Makoto seemed to come alive and rapidly gathered towards him!
Grains of sand quickly buried Uchiha Makoto and his Susanoo beneath the pyramid.
"Hahaha! You evil Uchiha brat!"
"Now you're not getting out!"
As Shukaku watched the sealing runes extend and reinforce the seal, he burst into a smug laugh.
Even Rasa had a slight smile on her lips at this moment.
"Oh!"
"The Uchiha have been sealed! We're going to win!"
The Sand Ninja cheered and jumped for joy, as if victory was just around the corner!
In an instant, the speed at which he Hand Seals increased significantly!
The Konoha Ninja, noticing the situation, immediately lost their morale, giving the Sand Ninja, who were on the defensive, a much-needed respite.
Upon witnessing this scene, the Rock Ninja, especially those who had previously besieged Uchiha Makoto, hesitated for a moment before silently slowing their attack in preparation for any possible changes.
After all, the Uchiha next to them weren't even in a hurry yet!
Boom!
A tremendous sound emanated from the "pyramid," and the "pyramid," originally made of sand, once again crumbled into a pile of loose sand!
Only the figure in the very center remained!
Without even seeing their faces clearly, the Sand Ninja had been shouting loudly immediately fell silent.
Uchiha Makoto looked at Shukaku and Rasa with amusement; their faces were no longer relaxed as before, but full of solemnity.
"Is this all you two have?"
Uchiha Makoto's gaze darted back and forth between the two, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"How powerless you are! But is this your strongest tactic?"
"Just like your tail, pitifully short!"
Uchiha Makoto relentlessly bombarded Shukaku with trash talk, making Shukaku's tanuki face visibly darken!
"Uchiha brat!"
Shukaku's face was grim; he was very dissatisfied with the current battle situation.
It was clear that it and Rasa had planned this all along; in fact, it had even been deliberately putting on an act just now.
Everything was going smoothly, yet we gained nothing!
"The gap in strength between us is too great! It's almost impossible to overcome!"
Shukaku stared at Uchiha Makoto, his deep voice echoing across the entire battlefield, causing chaos and many people to scatter and flee!
Some even exchanged a glance with their old rivals and moved in tacit agreement toward the edge of the battlefield.
Soon, the runners, both the first and the last, had created enough space for each other to showcase their skills.
On one side, Konoha Ninja; on the other, the Allied Shinobi Forces, formed a stalemate!
"The legendary Susanoo powerful, but it's not without a way to defeat it!"
At this moment, Rōshi stepped forward.
"Uchiha with Red Eye, dare to fight me?"
