Chapter 963

The speed was so fast that it was hard to capture with the naked eye.

But Sasuke Uchiha's two-tomoe Sharingan could see the finger bones very clearly.

He calmly took out the Sword of Kusanagi.

A humming sound rang out.

Sasuke Uchiha flicked his wrist, and the Sword of Kusanagi blocked all the finger bones.

The finger bones hit the ground, making a crisp sound.

Shikotsumyaku: Dance of the Willow!

Kimimaro Kaguya moved his body and arrived in front of Sasuke Uchiha.

A piece of white bone protruded from the palms of both his hands, stabbing toward him.

At the same time, he raised his knee, which also had a piece of white bone on it.

Sasuke Uchiha did not retreat.

In an instant, he swung his sword three times, precisely deflecting Kimimaro Kaguya.

"In front of these eyes of mine, all your movements will have nowhere to hide."

Sasuke Uchiha stood in place, performing a sword flourish, looking very relaxed and at ease.

The Dance of the Willow made Kimimaro Kaguya's whole body covered in white bones, somewhat similar to Killer Bee of the Hidden Cloud Village.

Killer Bee was skilled in the Eight-Sword Style; in the original work, he had once used the Eight-Sword Style to beat Sasuke Uchiha up.

But Kimimaro Kaguya's strength was far inferior to Killer Bee's.

Earth Curse Mark: State One!

The curse mark of blood vessels immediately appeared on Kimimaro Kaguya's body.

Just as Sasuke Uchiha had said, if all movements were under the insight of the two-tomoe Sharingan, then attacks were hard to be effective.

"Is the Sharingan that terrifying?"

Tayuya watched Kimimaro Kaguya activate the Earth Curse Mark right from the start and felt shocked.

"The Sharingan possesses terrifying insight; any attack Itachi make is equivalent to being slowed down in his eyes."

Ino Yamanaka sighed and said, "This means Itachi will be suppressed everywhere."

Tayuya recalled the exchange just now and found it to be true.

An average ninja facing an attack of three bone segments would either fail to block them all or have to dodge.

But Sasuke Uchiha was different; he could predict in advance, thus having time to defend and counterattack.

"Not only that, the Sharingan can also copy your movements, and even ninjutsu."

Sakura Haruno added.

"Anyway, I don't want to be Sasuke's opponent; it's too painful!"

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but say.

"That's true."

Tenten echoed.

She was best at throwing ninja tools, but in front of Sasuke Uchiha, she couldn't hit anyone at all.

"No wonder the Uchiha clan is so famous in the ninja world."

A look of realization appeared on Tayuya's face.

The battle resumed.

Shikotsumyaku: Dance of the Willow!

Kimimaro Kaguya's speed suddenly increased by a notch.

He flashed and stabbed out with the three bone segments again.

Sasuke Uchiha's heart jolted.

After Kimimaro Kaguya used the Earth Curse Mark: State One, the two-tomoe Sharingan couldn't see as clearly.

Fortunately, he could still see most of it.

Sasuke Uchiha held the Sword of Kusanagi horizontally in front of him.

He blocked two bone segments, but the bone on Kimimaro Kaguya's knee was about to stab him.

Body Flicker Jutsu!

Sasuke Uchiha exploded chakra from his legs and pulled away the distance in one go.

Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!

After steadying his footing, he formed hand seals and spat out a huge fireball.

Kimimaro Kaguya didn't dare to take it head-on and quickly dodged.

Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon!

A piercing bird-chirping sound rang out.

Sasuke Uchiha still stood in place, motionless.

Brilliant lightning gathered in his hands, and he threw it out suddenly, transforming it into dense senbon in the air.

Only, these senbon were composed of lightning; compared to ordinary senbon, they were faster and had greater piercing power.

Kimimaro Kaguya had just avoided the great fireball when he saw the sky full of senbon.

His pupils contracted, and he thought to himself that there was no way to dodge them all.

Shikotsumyaku: Dance of the Camellia!

At the critical moment, he pulled a bone sword out of his left arm.

The bone sword swung out instantly, creating white blade shadows, which actually blocked all the senbon in front of him.

"Is this Lightning Release: Chidori?"

Kiba Inuzuka widened his eyes and asked, "How can it turn into senbon?"

Seeing this, Neji Hyuga showed a heavy expression on his face.

As a taijutsu expert, the most troublesome thing for him was long-range attacks, especially those with such high speed.

Neji Hyuga sighed in his heart.

The current Sasuke Uchiha had very powerful means for both close combat and long-range.

It was no longer possible for him to defeat him like he used to.

Yakumo Kurama felt it was a bit tricky.

Lightning Release was known for its speed.

In future battles with Sasuke Uchiha, she would have to use genjutsu right from the start.

Otherwise, the slightest hesitation would lead to an attack from Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon, resulting in failure.

Yakumo Kurama had a premonition that as Sasuke Uchiha's Lightning Release became more powerful, her genjutsu would lose its advantage.

What's more, his Sharingan was far from reaching its limit; it was only two-tomoe.

"This is Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon."

Sakura Haruno explained, "It was taught by Kitazawa-sensei."

She had gone to find Sasuke Uchiha during the break and happened to see him practicing Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon, so she knew about it.

"How is it Kitazawa... sensei again?"

Tayuya asked with a puzzled face, "Is there anything he can't do?"

"Kitazawa-sensei is an all-around ninja!"

Ino Yamanaka put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "He can do everything!"

"And Kitazawa-sensei is a creative ninja; he has created quite a few ninjutsu."

Kiba Inuzuka echoed, "My Three-Headed Hell Dog was created by him."

"Kitazawa-sensei even knows Gentle Fist."

Hinata Hyuga nodded and said.

"..."

Neji Hyuga wanted to say something but stopped.

What he wanted to say was that it was better not to talk too much about this kind of thing.

But on second thought, given Kitazawa's current status, the Hyuga clan couldn't afford to offend him, so they might not necessarily cause him trouble.

In fact, Neji Hyuga also felt that Kitazawa knew Gentle Fist.

Because when he taught Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, it felt to him like he was more proficient than Hiashi Hyuga.

But theoretically, this was impossible.

How could someone master Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms without a Byakugan?

He couldn't figure it out.

After chatting for a bit, everyone stopped talking.

Because the battle in the arena had changed.

After blocking the Lightning Release: Chidori Senbon, Kimimaro Kaguya immediately charged toward Sasuke Uchiha.

He had realized that only by getting close could he defeat him.

Konoha-style: Willow!

Sasuke Uchiha took out the Sword of Kusanagi.

In an instant, his arms danced, and with him as the center, there were sword shadows filling the sky.

Kimimaro Kaguya's rushing body suddenly froze in place, unable to move.

He immediately realized he had been hit by a genjutsu.

Was this a composite ninjutsu of genjutsu and swordsmanship?

Kimimaro Kaguya found that Sasuke Uchiha had revealed too little in the first two rounds of battle, so much so that he had been at a disadvantage from the very beginning.

Earth Curse Mark: State Two!

At the critical moment, a massive amount of chakra erupted from Kimimaro Kaguya's body.

The violent chakra immediately broke the genjutsu.

Just then, Sasuke Uchiha's movements stopped, and the real killing intent emerged from the countless sword shadows.

He thrust his sword at Kimimaro Kaguya, who had completed his transformation.

Clang!

Kimimaro Kaguya's bone tail blocked in front of him.

This bone tail was huge and perfectly blocked the Sword of Kusanagi.

Kimimaro Kaguya moved his mind, and the bone tail pressed forward.

The huge force made Sasuke Uchiha's right arm go numb.

He immediately realized that his strength was far inferior to Kimimaro Kaguya in Earth Curse Mark: State Two.

Body Flicker Jutsu!

Sasuke Uchiha quickly pulled away the distance.

The best way to win now was long-range.

Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu!

Sasuke Uchiha put away the Sword of Kusanagi and formed hand seals.
