After Meihui told Naruto, Sasuke, and Itachi about the Ōtsutsuki Clan, Naruto and Sasuke fell silent, while Itachi sank into thought.
None of them spoke. They simply sat there in silence, leaving Meihui with no choice but to break the awkward atmosphere.
"I know you're feeling the pressure and getting anxious, but hold your horses. Focus on getting stronger first. The road ahead is long, so don't get cocky. Who knows who'll be on top in the end?"
"Ahem. Anyway, let's get back on topic. I'll test your strength first."
With that, Meihui pointed at Naruto and Sasuke, indicating that they should come at him together.
"What, you still think you can take us both on? I've gotten a lot stronger, you know." Uchiha Sasuke opened with some tough talk.
Even Naruto got swept up in it.
"Yeah, Nii-san! I've learned Nine-Tails Chakra Mode too. You'd better watch out."
Meihui merely smiled without speaking. Give Uchiha Sasuke a little sunshine, and he thought he was hot stuff again.
And what are you joining in for, Naruto?
Meihui made up his mind. He was going to teach these two clueless brats a proper lesson.
"Come on."
Meihui curled his fingers at them, urging the two to get moving.
After Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance, Meihui immediately activated Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, while Sasuke activated his Sharingan.
One feinted while the other attacked.
With coordination like theirs, Naruto and Sasuke could put up a fight against any opponent. But this time?
Meihui had no intention of dragging things out with them.
He dodged the probing attack from Naruto's Shadow Clone.
"Chidori!"
Sasuke seized the opening and attempted a sneak attack.
"Uchiha Sasuke, you're still too impatient." Intricate runes appeared on Meihui's hand and floated out from it.
"Sealing: Magic Suppression!"
Meihui easily
