"Oh, I wouldn't dare accept that!" Uchiha Hikaru smiled, but his hand showed no mercy. A kunai flashed into view, instantly coated in Armament Haki, and stabbed fiercely at Momousagi's famed blade.
"Hmph!" Momousagi was utterly fearless. Gripping her sword with both hands, she coated it in Armament Haki as well and swung to meet the blow head-on.
Clang!
The metal rang out. Momousagi felt a terrifying force surge through her blade, like endless raging waves crashing over her one after another. Each layer of force transmitted through the sword was more terrifying than the last.
"Urgh!" Momousagi grunted. She failed to withstand the strike and could hardly believe that Uchiha Hikaru had forced her back with nothing but a kunai.
"Armament Haki has ranks too. Don't you know that?" Hikaru chuckled lightly, rapidly forming hand seals with his other hand. "Fire Style..."
"Gahaha!" At that moment, Chaton finally recovered from the internal injuries caused by the collision of those two forces. He had not expected Uchiha Hikaru's Great Ball Rasengan to be so powerful that it had instantly knocked him dizzy. Fortunately, Momousagi had arrived in time to save him. Yet she had been forced back after a single exchange as well, so Chaton hurriedly attacked to interrupt Uchiha Hikaru.
Whoosh!
Four consecutive Finger Pistols shot through the air, but they only struck the afterimage Uchiha Hikaru had left behind. He had already shifted away, evading Chaton's counterattack.
"Go!" Once Momousagi steadied herself, her eyes turned cold as she charged toward the direction Hikaru had dodged with her sword raised. Her shout was clearly a signal for them to attack together. Chaton understood at once and immediately moved in coordination with Momousagi, closing in on Uchiha Hikaru from both sides.
Hina was stunned. Was this Uchiha Hikaru really so
