Heaven-spanning power: Yu battles the Songstress

In the Miniature Ice Space, Yu and the Army-Breaking Songstress faced each other amid the wind and snow in a valley ringed by ice mountains.

The Songstress looked around in amazement. "This... is Kaguya's Amenominaka. Your Rinnegan can use this move?"

Yu smiled. "I could use it back when I had the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan~ But only after awakening the Rinnegan did it really become effortless. This is the Miniature Ice Space. It should be more than enough for our battlefield."

The Songstress's jaw dropped. "Th-that's incredible... You've upgraded Obito into the Dream Carnival version!"

A lovely blush appeared on the Songstress's cheeks. "And the wrinkles on your face are gone, too. Ah... how should I put it? You're kind of handsome."

Yu smiled noncommittally. "When you're born poor, all you can do is put your life on the line to get ahead."

Yes, everything Yu had gained thus far had been bought with his life.

The Songstress spoke with heartfelt admiration. "Impressive, truly impressive~ Unlike me. I've made it this far without suffering much at all..."

One's birth determined the starting point, but not the heights one could reach.

The Songstress asked, "What kind of fighting do you like? Going all out from the start, or letting things simmer?"

Yu answered meaningfully, "That depends on my opponent~ And whether they can get me excited~!"

Yes, Yu had inherited the Uchiha's battle-hungry instincts in full...

The ultimate battle he sought was one where every inch of his skin, from his scalp to his toes, thrilled with delight as he approached the climax!

The sheer exhilaration after such a battle felt like undergoing a baptism!
