" Pervy Sage, why are you only arriving now? You're too late!" Naruto, having regained some strength, yelled at Jiraiya dissatisfaction.
"It's the Toad Sage!" Jiraiya replied with a smirk. "I just spotted a beautiful woman; she's so pretty, she seems suspicious!"
" Lord Jiraiya, can this trap them?" Shinsei looked at the enormous mass of flesh, somewhat doubting its power.
Jiraiya laughed heartily, "With the Ninjutsu I used, they definitely won't escape."
As soon as he finished speaking, a large hole appeared in the lump of flesh, and two black figures flashed out from the hole and then disappeared, leaving only black flames burning at the entrance of the hole.
Even from more than ten meters away, Shinsei could feel the scorching heat emanating from the black flames.
Such intense heat! Is this Amaterasu? Its power is truly terrifying!
The boast he had just made was instantly exposed, Jiraiya scratched his head in embarrassment.
Shinsei tried to create a stream of water to pour on Amaterasu's flames, and the black flames seemed to get fuel, burning even more fiercely.
Jiraiya took out a scroll and Hand Seals.
Fire Sealing Method: Flame Seal!
The black flames, like swallows returning to their nests, were sealed within the scroll.
Neither Shinsei nor Jiraiya mentioned pursuing the enemy. Shinsei didn't want to chase after them and invite trouble. In their previous exchange, none of them had gone all out, and if they were to fight seriously, he knew he would be no match for Uchiha Itachi.
"Ada!" A man's angry roar rang out as Guy kicked Might Guy to the ground Jiraiya was about to finish him off.
" Might Guy-senpai!" Naruto quickly stopped him.
Only then did Might Guy realize it was Jiraiya, and he quickly apologized.
Shinsei looked at Jiraiya getting up from the ground, speechless. Despite being a very powerful ninja, he often couldn't even dodge a woman's wooden clogs.
" Kakashi-sensei, you're late again." Naruto expressed his dissatisfaction to Kakashi, who had just entered.
"I just ran into a little black cat on the street," Kakashi explained with a smile, scratching the back of his head.
Shinsei took Sasuke to the hospital to treat his injuries, Jiraiya took Naruto to find Tsunade.
Shinsei wanted to join Jiraiya and Naruto's trip. He wanted to get some credit for persuading them to join in; that's exactly what he was thinking. He definitely didn't want to see how beautiful Tsunade was in real life!
Unfortunately, neither the Anbu nor the two elders allowed him to leave the village. This was not only because he had attacked Root's base, but also because Konoha needed a powerful ninja to hold the fort. A ninja like Shinsei, who could fight against Kage Level ninja, would not be allowed to leave now.
On the way to the hospital, Sasuke lay on Shinsei's back, silent the whole way, his face ashen. He had just taken a full dose of Uchiha Itachi's Tsukuyomi.
I spent 72 hours in the Genjutsu space, and I don't know what kind of torture I suffered.
Uchiha Itachi was truly ruthless towards his younger brother. I vaguely remember that in the original work, Tsukuyomi was the one who took the hits from Kakashi, while Sasuke suffered severe external injuries. But now, with Shinjō's intervention, Sasuke Uchiha's injuries weren't enough, so they used Tsukuyomi to make up for it.
" Sasuke!" Sakura shouted and rushed over from the roadside, throwing herself onto Sasuke's back.
Seeing Sasuke's appearance, her heart felt as if it were being torn apart, and tears instantly streamed down her face, dripping onto Sasuke's clothes.
Sasuke did not answer, as if he had not heard.
"Don't move him, his left hand is injured, don't dislocate it again," Shinsei said.
Sakura had no choice but to let go of Sasuke, tears still streaming down her face.
Sasuke was taken to the hospital, the doctor examined Sasuke left wrist and said, "It's a comminuted fracture."
"Is it serious?" Sakura asked anxiously.
"It's serious, but it's treatable," the doctor replied truthfully. "He's likely suffered psychological trauma."
The doctor looked troubled. "This can only be treated with rest and recuperation. You'll need to be hospitalized first."
Sasuke lay there like a corpse, at the mercy of everyone. After his arm was bandaged, he was helped to a hospital bed.
After the doctors and nurses left, the room became quiet, leaving only Sasuke, Sakura, and Shinsei.
Sasuke slightly opened his mouth and whispered something, Sakura quickly pressed her ear close.
"Get out!" Sasuke, being slightly older, turned his head slightly to look at Sakura.
Tears welled up in Sakura's eyes. Knowing Sasuke's temper, she tiptoed Earth Flow and gently closed the door behind her.
Tsk, what a temper.
Sasuke stared blankly at the ceiling.
"Can I still get revenge?"
Shinsei looked at Sasuke's pale face. Had Uchiha Itachi crushed his confidence? Although their fight hadn't lasted long, the vast difference in strength between Uchiha Itachi was still deeply etched in Sasuke's mind.
"What? You want to see Orochimaru?" Seeing that no one was around, Shinsei decided to have a proper talk with him.
Sasuke didn't answer, but his expression betrayed his thoughts.
"So do you know why Orochimaru is looking for you?"
"He wants my body," Sasuke answered truthfully.
"Haha." Shinsei laughed out loud, "So, do you know why Orochimaru wants your body?"
"Have no idea."
"Because he suffered a loss at the hands of an Uchiha clansman."
" Uchiha Itachi!" Sasuke's eyes turned cold.
"That's right, it's Uchiha Itachi, and the technique he used is the same as yours now—Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan eye technique. Your hope of becoming Orochimaru's apprentice and defeating Uchiha Itachi is probably unrealistic."
" The Mangekyō Sharingan?" This was the first time Sasuke had ever heard this term.
Instead of giving a direct answer, Shinsei changed the subject.
Do you know which family I belong to?
"Have no idea."
"So do you know which two clans founded Konoha?"
" Uchiha and Senju." This question was covered in the Konoha textbooks. Sasuke realized, "You're from the Senju?"
"Yes and no, I am indeed of the Senju bloodline, but the Senju Clan no longer exists."
Shinsei decided to say more, just in case the child gets sold off later.
"Back then, Madara Uchiha Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan, and Hashirama Senju, the Hashirama Senju of the Senju Clan, jointly founded Konoha and pacified the chaotic world, forming a pattern of one person, one village, and one country that continues to this day."
They both possessed martial prowess that surpassed that of the Shinobi World; Madara Uchiha was known as the Asura of the Ninja World, Hashirama Senju was even called the God of Shinobi.
Hashirama Senju possessed Wood Release, Chakra was like a vast, unfathomable ocean.
Do you know what power Madara Uchiha relied on to rival Hashirama Senju and be known as the Asura of the Human World?
Sasuke didn't speak, but turned to stare at Shinsei.
Shinsei didn't keep everyone in suspense. "That is the Kekkei Genkai of your Uchiha Clan, the Mangekyō Sharingan."
" The Mangekyō Sharingan." Sasuke murmured to himself, recalling the unique patterns in Uchiha Itachi's eyes that he had seen earlier that day, the chilling and evil power of which had left a deep impression on him.
"How can I obtain the Mangekyō?" Sasuke stared blankly at Shinsei.
Kill me!
Shinsei looked into Sasuke's eyes and spoke slowly and deliberately.
