Chapter 59: Susanoo Vs Dark Nine-tails
The two locked eyes, and facing Menma’s invitation, Uchiha Hikari launched the first attack, charging forward like an arrow off the string.
Her small feet with the anklet kicked off the wall, her entire body turning into a residual shadow, carrying strong wind straight toward Menma.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the Uzu Village Ruins, two figures fiercely clashed amid the vine-wrapped broken walls and ruins.
Uchiha Hikari unleashed the Uchiha Clan’s exquisite taijutsu, her Sharingan precisely capturing every inch of her opponent’s movements, her fists and feet pouring down like a violent storm.
Meanwhile, Menma was enveloped in a chakra cloak, countering move for move, engaging this girl sealed for hundreds of years in fierce combat with his unique self-created taijutsu. The two went back and forth, their hard clashes shaking gravel into the air.
The taijutsu clash was merely an appetizer.
After one double-fist collision, the two were each repelled several meters, Uchiha Hikari’s lips curving slightly upward.
She had been confined by sealing jutsu for centuries, and this bout of pure taijutsu had loosened her muscles and bones, feeling so refreshing that she couldn’t help but let out a soft hum.
She even felt a sense of mutual appreciation toward the boy opposite her.
“I’m getting serious now!” Uchiha Hikari shouted delicately as a warning, then her hands quickly formed hand seals.
“Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!”
Vast fire release chakra gathered in Uchiha Hikari’s mouth.
As her fingers pressed to her lips, a surge of flames roared out, a towering wave of fire crashing toward the boy opposite.
“Water Style: Water Chaos Wave!” Menma stood unmoving, forming hand seals to counter.
A high-pressure water arrow directly pierced the fire curtain, shooting straight at the girl’s forehead.
Uchiha Hikari body flickered to dodge, closing in while Menma used his tails cloak to resist the flames.
By the time Menma used his tails cloak chakra to tank this wave of fire style, Uchiha Hikari was already in front of him. Amid the dissipating flames, her vivid red Mangekyo Sharingan bloomed, her eye power instantly invading Menma’s spirit world.
“Illusion Technique: Tsukuyomi!”
The scene before Menma’s eyes changed abruptly, transporting him to a mirror-like azure consciousness space.
Here, stars hung inverted, ripples spread underfoot, the vast and boundless illusionary space just like Uchiha Hikari’s heart—empty and lonely.
This was Uchiha Hikari’s dojutsu, the “Tsukuyomi illusion world.” In this space, whether time, location, or quality, everything was completely controlled by her, the caster.
In the game, Uchiha Hikari had used Tsukuyomi to create a virtual world of “ninja heroes,” and after battling Boruto and others, she relied on Tsukuyomi to create a space favorable to herself, healing her injuries.
“I win.” Uchiha Hikari’s lips curved slightly, her smile brimming, her tone like playing with a good friend.
“Though your dojutsu is impressive, sorry, I’ve stayed too long in the Tsukuyomi world, this jutsu holds no—” Menma suddenly looked up, his right eye glaring: “threat to me!”
Sizzle—
Uchiha Hikari’s illusionary space suddenly tore apart, the entire illusion world collapsing with a boom.
Amid Uchiha Hikari’s shocked expression, a blood-colored battlefield replaced the previous azure illusionary space!
Gunpowder smoke and blood scent mixed, flooding into Uchiha Hikari’s nostrils, making her feel as if she had returned to the Warring States Period.
Her pupils contracted sharply, and looking down, on the scorched black ground underfoot, countless ninja corpses and weapons lay scattered haphazardly.
Uchiha Hikari followed the direction of these corpses and looked up, seeing a throne piled from countless ninja corpses.
A dark red Nine-Tails Fox Demon coiled atop the corpse mountain throne, while the boy from earlier leaned casually against the fox’s head, overlooking the battlefield like an emperor.
Even Uchiha Hikari, the strongest weapon of the Warring States Period, couldn’t help but tremble slightly in this blood-colored battlefield.
But she did not give up, gritting her teeth to urge her eye power, the pattern of her Mangekyo Sharingan beginning to rotate: “Engraved Tsukuyomi!”
Uchiha Hikari’s eye power reflected onto the moon of the illusionary space, the originally scarlet red moon now bearing the pattern of Uchiha Hikari’s Mangekyo Sharingan.
This jutsu was so powerful it could hard-control even Naruto!
Just as Uchiha Hikari thought she would claim ultimate victory.
The scarlet red moon high in the sky suddenly severed its connection with her, a bamboo scroll abruptly unfurling slowly on the moon.
“How is that possible!” Uchiha Hikari’s Sharingan suffered backlash, blood seeping from the corner of her eye.
The two returned from the illusion world to the real world.
Uchiha Hikari gasped for breath, clenching her teeth tightly, staggering back two steps. She had never imagined her most pride-worthy dojutsu would fail.
The boy before her was even stronger than she had imagined!
Moreover, judging by his relaxed demeanor, he was far from his limit.
Uchiha Hikari decided to use the third power of her Mangekyo Sharingan!
Crimson chakra spread from Uchiha Hikari’s body like a tide, surging out yet condensing into entity around her!
First, crimson bones rose from the ground, then chakra spread to these skeletons, forming flesh and blood. Countless crimson chakra draped armor over this crimson giant!
Behind the crimson giant, chakra formed a pair of enormous wings, each wing bearing a large hand, the right one gripping a chakra blade sheath.
Uchiha Hikari stood in the crow tengu mask atop the giant’s head, manipulating Susanoo.
As the wings spread, the clear ring of the chakra greatsword unsheathing echoed through the clouds, the gale pressing the entire forest into prostrate green waves.
Atop the crimson Susanoo, Uchiha Hikari, unleashing her strongest move, couldn’t wait to see the shock on the boy’s face opposite her.
She herself hadn’t noticed that the fondness in her heart was budding into something different.
On the ground, Menma faced the strong wind, his black robe flapping loudly.
It was his first time seeing Susanoo.
In the “Limited Tsukuyomi World,” he hadn’t seen this thing.
“Little Nine, you’re up next.” Menma lightly brushed the gravel from his fur collar.
The next moment!
Menma’s body emitted even more powerful dark red chakra, the massive form of the Dark Nine-Tails rising from under his feet!
Its two sharp claws lunged fiercely toward the crimson giant.
“What?!” Uchiha Hikari paled in shock, the Dark Nine-Tails’ sudden attack catching her off guard.
Menma stood atop the Dark Nine-Tails, approaching Uchiha Hikari at extreme speed as the Dark Nine-Tails raised its head.
Seeing the girl’s startled expression, Menma shouted: “You’re not the only one who can pilot a Gundam!”
“Little Nine! Let’s go! Attack with Tailed Beast Bomb!” Menma controlled the Dark Nine-Tails, in high spirits.
Uchiha Hikari quickly reacted, manipulating Susanoo to counter, the red giant blocking its chest with the chakra greatsword in hand.
Even in the Warring States Period, Uchiha Hikari had never battled a tails beast, meeting it somewhat hastily.
Meanwhile, after the Dark Nine-Tails’ claws were blocked by the red chakra greatsword, it had closed in front of Susanoo, opening its bloody maw.
A black sphere, mottled with dark red spots, began condensing in the Dark Nine-Tails’ mouth!
Boom——！！！
The island trembled in the clash of the two giant beasts, a tsunami-like shockwave sweeping heaven and earth!
