A vast, open space.
Uya stood quietly, and in front of Uya stood a person dressed in black robes.
Senjin, Anbu Ninja from Sunagakure Uya, was targeting Yuya.
Senjin is strange.
Why was Uya able to detect his arrival?
Before he even got close, Uya was already heading in his direction. As a semi-sensory ninja, he was aware of Uya's approach.
This led to the current stalemate.
Upon meeting him, he was certain that Uya was his target.
On the opposite side of Senjin.
Uya also found it somewhat strange.
He himself didn't know why he was aware of Senjin's arrival. Just as Senjin got close enough, Uya seemed to have a premonition.
So, Uya followed the direction she sensed and ended up running into Senjin, and they met head-on.
Regardless, this person in front of us is clearly an enemy, so it's certainly a good thing to be able to detect him in advance.
Otherwise, if they were ambushed, the outcome might not be good.
Senjin looked at Uya with a slightly cold expression.
His specialty is assassination; given the opportunity, he's even confident he could kill a Shadow!
A direct confrontation is certainly much more difficult than a covert assassination.
However, he is not afraid of anything, even in a direct confrontation. Although he is more skilled in assassination, he is equally strong in a head-on fight.
Uya and Senjin looked at each other without speaking or asking anything, because there was no need to ask anymore; all that was left was to fight.
He took out a scroll, Uya released his katana, holding it in his hand.
Meanwhile, Senjin, standing in front of Uya, formed a Hand Seals with one hand while making a grasping motion in mid-air with the other.
Pfft!
A sword appeared directly in his hand.
The moment the sword appeared, Uya suddenly felt a strong sensation.
This was exactly the same feeling that had alerted Uya to the arrival of Senjin, but with the appearance of this sword, it became countless times stronger!
Why is this happening?!
Uya narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the sword in Senjin's hand.
However, before Uya could get a good look, Senjin had already launched his attack.
" Secret Technique! Dance of Cherry Blossom Killing!"
The sword in Senjin's hand suddenly fell towards Uya.
It looks like Chakra Flow technique, but the effect is completely different!
As his sword fell, the entire sky suddenly flashed, and thousands upon thousands of identical swords appeared!
Like a rain of swords, it crashed down upon Uya!
"What kind of Ninjutsu is this?!"
Seeing this, Uya was slightly surprised, then realized it might be a technique like the Shuriken Shadow Clone.
Without any fear, facing the rain of swords, Uya simply swept his sword horizontally.
Buzz!!
As Uya swung his sword, a ball of white, semi-transparent light with Power of Tremors was flung directly to the side and upwards by Uya.
The countless swords rained down like a storm.
The two collided suddenly in mid-air.
boom!!!
The Power of Tremors erupted with a deafening roar, tearing the air apart as if cracks had appeared in the entire sky!
With a tremor, the rain of swords shattered inch by inch, eventually dissipating completely.
"Um?!"
Upon seeing this, Senjin's pupils shrank, revealing a hint of vigilance and surprise. He hadn't expected Uya's techniques to be so unique and powerful.
Taking a deep breath, Senjin spun his sword again and suddenly swung it, launching a second attack.
" Secret Technique! Shadow Slaughter!"
Whoosh!!
In the next instant, Senjin's figure suddenly Intangibility, then seemed to turn into several afterimages, suddenly appearing in all directions around Uya.
Then, all of these afterimages swung their swords.
As they swung their swords, the swords created afterimages, transforming into dozens of sword blades that completely enveloped Uya, leaving him no way to escape.
" Genjutsu? A clone?!"
Seeing this, Uya shook his head, his face growing increasingly calm.
Uya fears least is this kind of scattered, dazzling attack.
Showy but impractical.
Faced with this attack, Uya only needs one punch to break through it!
With a light touch, the katana was planted into the ground in front of him. Then, with his arms slightly crossed in front of his chest, Uya suddenly swung his hammer to the sides.
It was at this moment that countless sword shadows suddenly stabbed towards Uya Uya, as if trying to turn him into a hedgehog.
boom!!
In the next instant, the Power of Tremors erupted, and the air on either side of Uya shattered like a mirror.
The earth rumbled and trembled, cracking open inch by inch from both sides, spreading into the distance.
Those afterimages and sword shadows were utterly and irrevocably destroyed by Uya's attack!
"Not good!"
The Senjin, hidden within the afterimage, showed a hint of shock upon seeing this scene.
He clearly hadn't expected Uya to be so strong, and to be able to launch such an attack that covered all directions.
Shocked, he could only channel his Chakra into the sword in his hand, then suddenly swung it, simultaneously pushing off with his feet to retreat.
Not understanding just how strong Uya's Monstrous Strength was, he naturally wouldn't engage in a direct confrontation with Uya.
Buzz!!
Despite absorbing Uya's Power of Tremors, he still felt a slight numbness in his hands and his body trembled. He was even more astonished by Uya's power.
At this moment, Uya's expression also revealed a strange look.
It wasn't because of the technique Senjin used, but because of the sword in Senjin's hand!
He finally saw it clearly.
That's the Kusanagi Sword!
What a coincidence that brought Senjin, who wields the Kusanagi Sword, to Uya's side and led to Uya encounter.
Moreover, as Uya fought Senjin, Uya's connection to the Kusanagi Sword grew stronger.
Although he still didn't quite understand what was going on, Uya already had a vague guess in his mind.
The gaze directed at Senjin was no longer calm; instead, it revealed a strong killing intent.
After two encounters, Uya had already understood Senjin's strength.
Because of the Kusanagi Sword, Senjin's strength is greater than that of Elite Jonin, enough to be ranked at the level of Quasi-Kage, and he is qualified to threaten Kage Level powerhouse.
The Kusanagi Sword is more than just a sharp sword.
It not only possesses the power to contain Chakra, but its nature is far stronger than the katana in Uya's hand and the White Fang in Hatake Sakumo's hand.
Furthermore, it possesses the unique Kusanagi Swordsmanship!
The rain of swords and the shadows of those swords just now were a manifestation of the Kusanagi Swordsmanship.
Orochimaru's techniques, such as suddenly extending the Kusanagi Sword or unleashing the Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes, where each snake spits out Kusanagi Sword from its mouth, also fall under the category of Kusanagi Swordsmanship.
Simply put, it's similar to the swords of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja Blade, each of which possesses unique abilities, and the Kusanagi Sword is no exception.
