In Uchiha Meikyō's eyes, everything in the world seemed to have changed.
Even without the Sharingan, he could clearly predict where the fallen leaves in the bamboo forest would drift in the next second, and which direction the wind would carry them away a few seconds later. He could see through Akaza's skin the changes in the texture of the skin as it moved, and he could see the blood being rapidly transported throughout the body with each heartbeat.
Combined with the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, this amplifies the effect of this field of vision.
Having inherited the Spirit Activation Technique from Dan Katō, he has long since entered the Second Stage after so much training, and is only one step away from reaching the third stage of perceiving external objects.
The experiences that Dan Katō had shared in the Naruto World and the insights that Rengoku Kyojuro had gained recently kept flashing through my mind. The experiences of Akaza and Rengoku Kyojuro opening the Transparent World also turned into insights and settled in my mind.
The Spirit Activation Technique, Level 3, achieved.
Transparent World is opened.
"It's good to be confident, but it's best if you have the strength to match your confidence. You treat me as a stepping stone to reach the highest realm, but haven't I also treated you as my whetstone?"
Uchiha Meikyō raised his Nichirin Blade and gave Akaza a provocative smile.
When Rengoku Kyojuro and the others before, he didn't dare to go all out and kill them. The benefits of such sparring were too small, far less effective than using Akaza, who was quite strong and difficult to kill, as a whetstone.
Now that the sharpening effect has been achieved, the whetstone is no longer needed.
They can be killed now.
Akaza felt something was off.
But having opened up the Transparent World, he was at the most triumphant moment in hundreds of years, so he didn't think too much and reached out to strike a pose once again.
"I'll return those words to you!"
Uchiha Meikyō also assumed the starting sword stance.
"Destructive Death - Final Move - Azure Silver Chaotic Remnant Light!"
"Sun Breathing - Eleventh Form - Dragon Sun Halo Head Dance!"
The two sides clashed fiercely once again!
A mighty fire dragon emerged from the Nichirin Blade, and with Meikyō's rapidly changing steps, it dodged Akaza's attacks while unleashing countless slashes.
At that moment, the Shadow Clone took out the Ama-no-Ohabari and charged forward, using the Uchiha Style Swordsmanship in conjunction with the Meikyō.
Even if it's not Nichirin Blade, it can still keep Akaza busy when combined with the main body.
While constantly dodging and parrying attacks, Akaza was also trying to find an opening to counterattack.
Even though Akaza is a demon and doesn't get tired, and has a powerful body, he still has his Akaza.
Even if the Transparent World can help him predict attacks and dodge them, as long as the Meikyō Sword is swung fast enough, it will be useless even if he predicts them!
Akaza decided to take a gamble.
"Destructive Death - Shattering Style - Myriad Leaf Flash Willow!"
"Bang!"
The shadow clone that took the hit Shadow Clone- on turned into white smoke and dissipated, while the Ama-no-Ohabari Feather fell to the ground with a clatter.
Taking advantage of the moment the Shadow Clone were created, Uchiha Meikyō swung his sword down.
"Sun Breathing, Twelfth Form: Flame Dance!"
Blood splattered Akaza fell to the ground. His face, covered in dark blue tattoos, was filled with disbelief, followed by resentment!
He's not dead yet!
He can still fight!
Akaza's headless body struck a pose once more.
He has been searching for centuries, and he will never give up!
Kyoto, the study of a wealthy family.
Wearing a white lab coat and gold-rimmed Glasses, Muzan Kibutsuji, looking like a scholar, was fiddling with the bottles and jars in front of him.
While searching for the Blue Spider Lily, he also tried to overcome his fear of sunlight through other means.
He even taught himself a lot of medical and chemical knowledge for this purpose.
Just as Akaza's headless body assumed a fighting stance once more, Muzan Kibutsuji's movements involuntarily paused.
"What is Akaza...?"
As the master of the demons, he could sense that Akaza had been beheaded, and the way he was beheaded felt very familiar to him. However, what was surprising was that Akaza did not die.
"Akaza... did he also break through his limits and become a demon who overcame his neck weakness, just like me?"
Muzan Kibutsuji somewhat curious.
I'm curious about Akaza's current situation, who could have driven him to this Akaza, and what exactly is this strange sense of familiarity?
He tried to project his consciousness into Akaza's body, but he couldn't Transparent World; Akaza's head was gone, so he couldn't see anything.
However, as a Demon King who survived being slashed more than a thousand times by Tsugikuni Yoriichi, he knew very well that demons like Akaza, who had broken through the limitations, could quickly regenerate their heads.
So he decided to wait.
"Destructive Death - Footwork - Flowing Light!"
The headless body attacked the Meikyō again, and was even rapidly regenerating.
"So it really is a demon that has broken through the limitations and overcome its weakness in the neck."
Meikyō firmly defended against Akaza's kick, quickly dodged around it, and slapped Akaza on the body.
"Seal· One-Thread Lantern Formation!"
The One-Thread Lantern Formation could only trap weaker enemies. Seeing that Akaza was about to break free of the seal again, Meikyō quickly Hand Seals before the seal was broken, creating two Shadow Clones to surround Akaza, and then using the Three-Way Seal to trap him.
Akaza's headless body kept bombarding the seal in an attempt to break free while simultaneously trying to regenerate its head.
The One-Thread Lantern Formation is a basic Sealing Technique. The Three-Way Seal is relatively more advanced and is the highest-level Sealing Technique that Meikyō currently knows. It is a simplified, youthful version of barrier-type sealing techniques such as the Four Red Yang Formation and the Uchiha Flame Formation. However, it is still much weaker than advanced Sealing Technique such as the Four Symbols Seal and the Five Elements Seal, and it is estimated that it will not be able to trap Akaza for long.
"In that case, we just need to slow down this guy's regeneration rate so that his head can't regenerate for a long time. That should be enough to kill him. If that doesn't work, we'll just have to wait until the sun rises and then use Sealing Technique to trap him and let him die from the heat."
Uchiha Meikyō sighed, then raised the Nichirin Blade in his hand, took a deep breath, and a few Mars flew from the edge of his lips. He then used Senjutsu Chakra to cast Fire Style, scorching the Nichirin Blade in his hand.
He already possessed the nature transformation of Fire Style Chakra Nature Transformation, and now, with the added enhancement of Senjutsu Chakra, the color of the flame core even turned blue-white.
This is a rather alarming temperature.
Under such high temperatures, the Nichirin Blade not only turned into Crimson Blade, but also showed signs of melting. However, it also amplified the solar energy contained in the Scarlet Crimson Sand Iron within the blade to its limit!
I'll try to update frequently during the National Day starting the day after tomorrow. Hope you all will support me!
