Six Paths: Indra's Arrow tore through the air!
Sasuke knew he could not stop it, but he refused to sit there and wait for death!
An instant before Indra fired, Sasuke had used Susanoo to unleash the Eight Branches Technique. Eight serpent heads clad in Susanoo armor twisted together in front of him, forming a defensive barrier!
Boom...!
The barrier was pierced in an instant, but it still nudged the arrow slightly off its intended course!
That seemingly tiny deviation gave him a chance to survive!
Boom...!
Sasuke's perfect Susanoo vanished beneath the explosion's streaming light. The pillar of light shot into the clouds, whipping up a terrifying disaster wind!
Battered by the disaster wind, Sasuke plummeted helplessly. Had he not raised the Uchiha Gunbai in front of himself at the last moment, not even his bones would have remained!!
Sasuke landed in a muddy swamp, his flesh torn open and every bone in his body broken!
"Meow..." The cat came over and licked Sasuke's cheek.
Sasuke opened his right eye and gazed at the cat beside him, uncertainty flickering across his face.
If he used Heavenly Reverse Hand now, he could immediately exchange his condition for an uninjured one!
In the end, the uncertainty in his eyes settled into calm.
"Run..." he whispered.
The cat did not leave. It stayed beside Sasuke, guarding him.
Tap! Indra landed on the ground and strode forward impassively. "I only used half my power for that arrow..."
His motive was clear. If Sasuke died outright, reviving Indra would become much more troublesome.
Sasuke waited, waiting for Indra to enter his dōjutsu's range!
Heavenly Reverse Hand worked on bodies created by Impure World Reincarnation, too!
If he exchanged their injuries, Indra's reanimated body would need time to recover, giving Sasuke a chance to counterattack
