Chapter 119

A colossal fist made of chakra, swung by Ishihara, slammed hard against the Susanoo.

Crack! Crack!

Cracks appeared on the Susanoo!

In Fugaku's incredulous gaze, that ferocious, overwhelming power shattered the Susanoo's defense!

A pillar of lightning thunderbolt pierced straight through the Susanoo's body!

Shooting straight into the sky!

"How is this possible?"

"The Susanoo's defense was actually broken?!"

Fugaku was going mad.

His eyes fixed firmly on Ishihara, he still found it hard to believe.

This was power hailed as absolute defense; how could it possibly be broken!

But!

Crack, crack!

Wild power spread across the Susanoo's body, and the cracks multiplied.

With a boom, the entire Susanoo shattered!

Completely dispersed!

Fugaku stared blankly at Ishihara, his mind a blank void, not knowing what reaction to make.

"Seems the Susanoo's defense is nothing special after all!"

Ishihara said coolly.

Yet deep inside, he felt some shock.

After all, this was a punch delivered with his Superhuman Strength while in his maximum-speed state.

And it still failed to smash the Susanoo apart in one blow!

It was hard to imagine how terrifying the defense would be if it were a Complete Susanoo!

"Don't underestimate the Uchiha!"

Fugaku roared in frustration, summoning the Susanoo once more.

This time, the Susanoo held a purple, pot-shaped artifact in its hand.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Plumes of black flames erupted from it, raining down upon Ishihara in a vast, sky-covering deluge.

A ring of black-flame defense formed around the Susanoo.

"With these black flames, how can you possibly approach me?!"

Fugaku sneered inwardly, raising his bow to attack.

But Ishihara suddenly slammed both hands onto the ground.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow Severance!"

Boom, boom, boom!

The earth trembled, cracked, and flipped.

The black-flame defense ring was torn apart effortlessly, and channels formed by grotesque fissures appeared all around the Susanoo.

Screech!

Ishihara moved as fast as lightning, darting into one of the channels behind the Susanoo, and instantly passed through it to reach the Susanoo's rear.

He placed his hand upon it and carefully sensed its nature.

"This thing is rather eerie; without the Mangekyō Sharingan, it would be nearly impossible to develop."

Ishihara quickly shook his head.

With his current knowledge base, a brief perception had already given him a basic judgment.

So he temporarily abandoned it, planning to study it further only after awakening the Mangekyō.

Boom!

The Susanoo suddenly turned and swung its fist; Ishihara blasted backward to create distance.

Fugaku glared at him in anger, "If you have the guts, don't run!"

"Heh, you've been given too much face!"

Hearing this, Ishihara's expression turned cold; he grinned savagely, surged forward, and threw a punch.

The Susanoo's massive fist collided with Ishihara's fist; the terrifying impact created a momentary stagnation.

Boom!!!

In Fugaku's horrified gaze, the Susanoo's arm shattered!

Suddenly, his pupils shrank sharply as he stared in terror at Ishihara, who was winding up another punch.

"No good!"

But it was too late.

Ishihara stared at him with icy eyes and delivered a punch.

Thump!

The Susanoo shattered once again!

This time, Ishihara gave Fugaku no chance; he instantly teleported to Fugaku's front and slammed a fist hard into his stomach.

Ugh!

Fugaku's entire body arched like a boiled red shrimp, his eyes bulging, blood vomiting from his mouth.

Thud!

Ishihara casually tossed him to the ground and looked down at him with a blank expression.

"I'm curious, what made you think your strength could compare to mine?"

"The Mangekyō Sharingan?!"

Fugaku fell to the ground in agony; it wasn't just Ishihara's punch, but the side effects of the Mangekyō Sharingan that left him barely able to stand.

His eyes had returned to normal black, the whites filled with bloodshot veins, his hands gripping the ground tightly as his entire body trembled.

"Damn it! Damn it!!!"

"Why, why can't even the Mangekyō Sharingan beat you?!"

Hearing this, Ishihara immediately laughed.

"It's not that the Mangekyō Sharingan can't beat me; it's that you're too weak!"

In the end, the Mangekyō Sharingan is just a tool; the strength of a tool depends on the ability of its user.

"I'm too weak?!"

"No, it's not that I'm too weak; it's that you're too strong, you monster!!!"

Fugaku gave a self-mocking smile, then firmly shook his head, looking at Ishihara as he gritted his teeth and spoke.

He was very confident in his own strength.

·· ······ Begging for flowers· ·

Perhaps he wasn't the strongest person in the ninja world, but he could certainly be counted as a powerful one.

But Ishihara was too strong; he didn't seem like a ninja of the same level as him at all.

"No need for more nonsense; next, let me study your Mangekyō Sharingan!"

Ishihara stared at him coldly and said in a deep voice.

Although the recent battle had yielded some information on the Mangekyō, it was far from enough.

He needed a much more detailed analysis!

Hearing this, Fugaku's face instantly turned pale with fear. "What do you intend to do?!"

Ishihara said calmly, "Didn't I already say it? I'm going to study your Mangekyō!"

"I..."

Fugaku's expression showed some hesitation.

Before coming, he had indeed prepared himself to let Ishihara study his Mangekyō.

But not now; it was supposed to be after the cooperation was completed.

Moreover, in this situation, could he even make demands?

More importantly, although the deduction results indicated that Ishihara's research would cause no harm to his Mangekyō, how could he possibly trust that damn eye technique now?
