Boom!
Flames and water clashed head-on once again.
Sasuke stood amid the churning mist, his Two-Tomoe Sharingan spinning rapidly.
Now, he could clearly track Suigetsu's every move.
But seeing them was one thing. Defeating Suigetsu was still no easy task.
The Hozuki Clan's Hydrification Technique was far too troublesome.
As long as Suigetsu liquefied his body beforehand, ordinary attacks could hardly hurt him.
And with his ability to control vast amounts of water, Suigetsu had practically turned the entire arena into his home turf.
"Sasuke Uchiha!"
Suigetsu controlled a massive ball of water, driving it down hard toward Sasuke.
"Do you think awakening a Two-Tomoe Sharingan will change the outcome?"
Sasuke did not answer.
He pushed off the ground, swiftly evading the surging water.
Through his Two-Tomoe Sharingan, the chakra flowing inside Suigetsu became crystal clear.
Every time Suigetsu used Water Release, he gathered a large amount of chakra within his body.
And the Hydrification Technique came at a cost, too.
He had to keep replenishing his water to maintain such an enormous body.
If Sasuke dragged this out, Suigetsu's advantage would gradually diminish.
But Sasuke was also burning through his reserves.
The battle so far had already consumed more than half his chakra.
Although the newly generated chakra had restored his strength, it could not sustain him for long.
I have to end this quickly.
Sasuke's gaze sharpened.
"Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Claw Crimson!"
Several flame-wreathed shuriken shot out from different directions, forcing Suigetsu to change position.
He had just liquefied his body to evade the incoming shuriken when Sasuke rushed right up to him.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!"
An enormous fireball erupted at point-blank range.
Flames engulfed Suigetsu's body, sending clouds of steam billowing upward.
"Fire Release of this level can't hurt me!"
With an angry roar,
