Shinichi fell into a daze as he saw Kuroto hovering in mid-air, with his body wrapped in what appeared to be a Cyan-Chakra Cloak and carrying a Golden Chakra Sword.
He couldn't he but mutter in wonder, "You… what kind of ninjutsu is this?" – As he said that, Shinichi paused and finally said after shaking his head, "No, this isn't some ninjutsu, this should be your pupil technique, right? But Byakugan shouldn't have any such ability."
"There are so many things that you don't know of." – said Kuroto with a light voice.
Kuroto would obviously not explain just What is the Tenseigan? What is Tenseigan Chakra Mode? What is the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion? Etc, after all, protecting his intelligence has become a sort of an instinct for him.
"Is that so? I guess I wasn't wrong, you are really not an ordinary Hyuga, now I can be sure of that." – taking a deep breath; Shinichi gradually calmed down.
Although the Chakra pressure emanating from Kuroto in the Tenseigan Chakra Mode was extremely powerful, it still didn't affect Shinichi too much, but only aroused his eagerness to win against Hyuga Kuroto even more.
Looking at the current state of Hyuga Kuroto, Shinichi was now reminded of the time when he first duelled against him.
Even back then after his loss, Shinichi was able to grasp something that led him to doubt that Hyuga Kuroto is not some ordinary Hyuga, but because Shinichi's loss was too miserable that it even made him embarrass about it; so, he chose not to speak anything about it; because even if he said anything the other Uchiha Clansmen would not pay any attention to his words and just think that he is making excuses to cover his failure.
So, that wasn't worth it, but Shinichi still didn't let go of that.
And now that he has seen the unique pupil technique, Shinichi understood that his initial guess wasn't wrong.
At this time, Kuroto slowly raised his hand to lift the dazzling Golden Sword.
"Well now, this kind of battle is fair." – Shinichi muttered with a strong will, and then shouted, "Hyuga Kuroto, I, Uchiha Shinichi will not lose to you twice."
After leaving this sentence Shinichi exerted more of his Chakra to further enhance his Susanoo that started growing muscles over it and transformed into a half-body warrior Susanoo.
Due to overexerting his eyes, even blood started to drip out of them. But that stops Shinichi to continue…
And a ROAR… echoed throughout the forest following which two more sets of arms appeared on the Susanoo.
As soon as this transformation was completed, Kuroto who was observing all the changes happening immediately slashed the Golden Sword.
At the same time, Susanoo's arms were also raised while a sword made out of dark-green chakra appeared to match the Golden Sword's slash.
Wouch…
With the sound of breaking wind, two chakra-blades projection meet each other sending intense wind pressure to the surroundings.
"Blocked!"
Shinichi was happy that his Susanoo projection sword could block that Golden Sword.
Break…
However, before he could be too overjoyed the sound of cracking reached his ears.
And immediately afterward, one set of arms was cut through and faded away.
And that wasn't it, just moments later the entire Susanoo also started breaking away as various cracks appeared in its skeletal defense.
Although it is said that Susanoo Armour has an almost perfect defense, it still couldn't resist the cutting effect of the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.
Shinichi was highly shocked that Kuroto could cut through Susanoo's perfect defense and immediately flickered away from that spot, as he suddenly had a bad feeling.
As soon as Shinichi disappeared from his spot, the entire Susanoo crumbled.
"Cough-cough…"
Shinichi who appeared on the other side wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and mutter in shock, "This… how could it be possible!?"
Susanoo was easily cut in half?
Shinichi even wondered whether he is under a genjutsu attack.
After all, Susanoo should have a perfect defense! It is the symbol of Absolute.
But contrary to what he thought, the absolute was now broken.
On the other side, Kuroto's expression remained calm.
Since he used only one Truth-Seeking Orb to summon the Golden Sword, so it is understandable that it couldn't cut through Susanoo's defense in one swipe but took a bit of effort.
Glancing on the other side where the rest of the members of Team-11 were fighting, Kuroto muttered inwardly, 'I can't drag this for too long.'
Although both of them are far from the others, it is still possible to sense the movements of the other side, therefore, Kuroto was able to perceive that some of the Cloud ninjas are rushing here.
Shinichi who was ignored for a moment roared in frustration, "Damn it, where do you think you are looking? I still haven't lost yet."
Without waiting for Kuroto to turn over, Shinichi urged his Mangekyou and again the projection of Susanoo covered his body and immediately punched Kuroto with all four of its arms.
Punch… Punch… Punch… Punch…
…
At the same time on another part of the Battlefield.
Shisui who was surrounded by a dozen or so Chunin and Jonin looked anxiously in the direction where Kuroto and Shinichi were fighting.
Although Shisui isn't a sensor-class, he was still able to perceive Susanoo's Chakra Fluctuation and understood that Shinichi has used the mighty Susanoo armor.
Shisui perfectly understands the power of Susanoo and that's why he wasn't worried about Kuroto-San's safety.
In Shisui's mind, Kuroto-San, who could flatten an entire valley along with hundreds of Cloud ninjas in a few minutes has long surpassed the level of Mangekyou Sharingan and is undoubtedly the current strongest in Konoha.
Therefore, Shisui wasn't worried about Kuroto-San's safety but Shinichi's safety, Shisui doesn't want Shinichi to die!
While Shisui was worried about Shinichi's safety, a young Kunoichi walked in from the other side.
From just a single glance, Shisui realized who she is and his face sank.
It's because the person is none other than the Nibi's Jinchuriki, Yugito Nii, a Jonin of Kumo.
As Yugito Nii walked in, the clear anger and coldness in her eyes didn't escape Shisui's perception as she said, "Huh… Konoha Anbu Team-11, this time I finally caught you guys!"
Shisui immediately questioned with anger, "Are you Kumo shinobi so shameless that you again want to break the Peace and start the War!?"
"Peace? War?" With a cold smile, Yugito Nii continued, "If not for your rat tricks in the Land of Hot Water, Konoha would have already been under our control"
"And what about the destroy-…"
Before Shisui could finish his words, a sudden golden light flashed across the horizon that not only attracted his attention but also attracted Jinchuriki's attention as both of them wondered, 'What happened over there?'

The dazzling golden light that was shining like a golden curtain looked especially magnificent in the dimming dusky sky. It appeared as if the Sun that has just sunk a few moments ago climbed up again leaving a golden hue in the night-blue sky.
Boom… Boom… Boom… Boom…
Before anyone could react to the sudden golden light, there were a series of loud rumbling noises from the place where the golden curtain shone
The earth trembled and the forest shook.
From the intense vibrations that disrupted everything around; it felt as if two titans were fighting in the distance, causing massive shock waves in the entire forest.
Shisui's face was solemn at this moment because he was aware that these vibrations were all coming from the direction where Kuroto-San and Shinichi were fighting.
Yugito Nii also frowned with an unsure expression.
As the commander who led the response this time, she was initially sceptical of Uchiha Shinichi's insistence on singling out Hyuga Kuroto.
But considering that he had what Raikage-Sama described as a dojutsu called the Mangekyou Sharingan, led her to have no choice but to agree.
Yugito Nii doesn't know what actually is Mangekyou Sharingan, but it should be something highly valuable for the Kumo, considering that Raikage-Sama sent them all here just to retrieve it.
But as a perfect Jinchuriki, Yugito Nii obviously looked down on the Uchiha brat, but now she is unsure of that thought and muttered in surprise, "Could it be that Uchiha Shinichi and Hyuga Kuroto are fighting there?"
The entire ambush point is under her perception and she can't sense either of them here, so only the distant battlefield that is outside the ambush point, and also the place where those vibrations are coming from is the place where those two might be fighting.
But this further confused her, because as far as she believes; neither Uchiha Shinichi nor Hyuga Kuroto should be capable of causing such big movements.
After all, in Yugito Nii's concept, only Jinchuriki with their tailed beasts are capable of such large-scale terrain damage.
Noticing Yugito Nii's confusion, Shisui hardened his gaze and understood that he couldn't delay anymore, choosing to believe that Kuroto-San would definitely not kill Shinichi, Shisui resolved himself to take care of the Jinchuriki to avoid the continuation of War.
After making up his mind, Shisui activated the Mangekyou Sharingan
Immediately following this, an Emerald-Green Susanoo was projected from his body!
Yugito Nii was shocked seeing such a scene and immediately retreated backward, "W-what is that? Wait, his eyes look different from a normal Sharingan, i-is that a Mangekyou Sharingan? D-does that mean he also has a Mangekyou Sharingan?"
The Kumo ninjas that witnessed Shisui's Susanoo were all buried by Kuroto at the Valley in the Land of Lightning, so the accurate information about Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan and Susanoo is unknown to most.
And since Shinichi didn't describe what Mangekyou Sharingan is capable of, so Yugito Nii wasn't much aware of what's Susanoo!
Shisui ignored Yugito Nii's shocked expression and declared, "I'll never let Shinichi defect to Kumo!"
With that declaration, Shisui's figure flickered and rushed out. In just an instant the chakra needles fired by him pierced through many chunin and Jonin, killing them immediately.
Undoubtedly, with the increasing age, physical development, and repeated usage, Shisui's body is slowly but steadily adapting to Susanoo, and now he has become more comfortable in controlling the powers of his Mangekyou Sharingan.
…
On Kakashi's side.
The sharp sound of Chidori mixed with the wailing and grunting sounds of ninjas echoed in the surroundings.
While supporting himself and releasing Chidori, Kakashi squatted himself on a tree, panting lightly, and observed his surroundings with the Sharingan.
Kakashi has of course noticed the Golden Light on the horizon, therefore, he didn't have any more interest to play hide and seek with these Kumo ninjas.
Swish…
At this moment a kunai with a detonation charm was shot towards him from behind.
Kakashi easily avoided the Kunai and destroyed the detonation charm tied to it with the Chidori.
The ninja who threw the Kunai was hiding behind a tree frowned as the expected explosion didn't occur.
The moment he poked out his head to see the reason, a Kunai wrapped in thunder Chakra pierced through his head, killing him instantly before he could even react.
…
On Guy's side.
"Sixth Gate: Keimon – Open!"
After opening the Sixth gate of Hachimon Tonkou, Guy's body was wrapped up in a greenish aura as the surrounding leaves and gravel flew away or hovered in the air from the sheer pressure he emanated.
The Kumo ninjas who surrounded Guy looked at each other in wonder. Initially, they all thought that they could easily complete the task of killing this Anbu.
After all, according to the information they have of the members of Anbu Team-11 only Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Shisui, and Hyuga Kuroto are worth noting, while the miscellaneous fourth member of the team is just a tail of the crane, nothing to be taken seriously.
But the scene here is clearly contrary to what is shown in the intelligence.
Glancing at the dazzling golden light shining on the horizon, Guy who was wearing a monkey mask shouted, "My companions are all fighting for the safety of the village, I can't stay behind any longer!"
Some of the Kumo ninjas were offended by Guy's words and shouted angrily, "Boy, are you underestimating us?"
Guy obviously didn't bother to answer just jumped into the air with a distinctive stance and shouted, "Morning Peacock!"
And instantly he started punching in the air repeatedly, the speed of his punches was so fast that they were set ablaze by sheer speed and friction which in turn created a peacock-like fan of flames fired towards the Kumo ninjas.
The Kumo could hardly react to the fan of flames and one by one they all flew out or burnt by the attacks.
After solving all the enemy at his end, Guy took a breath to relieve himself and vanished in the direction of the golden light.
…
On Kuroto's side.
Kuroto continued easily dodging the barrage of punches that Shinichi threw at him with the four massive arms of his Susanoo.
Boom… Boom… Boom… Boom…
Each punch, when collided with the ground, caused a massive earthquake and shook the entire forest.
But Kuroto wasn't just dodging, whenever he got the right opportunity, he would wave his golden chakra sword to cut off Susanoo.
He was also very careful so that his sword doesn't cut through Shinichi or the Mangekyou Sharingan because he doesn't want to destroy the Mangekyou Sharingan.
But because Shinichi's offensive was increasing continuously, so it was getting a little difficult for Kuroto to make sure that his attacks don't damage Mangekyou Sharingan.
Roar…
With a wailing cry, the Susanoo whose head was cut off by Kuroto disappeared.
And Shinichi who was almost going crazy because nothing he did worked; in frustration, he once again summoned the Susanoo while wiping away the blood that spurted out of his mouth.
"Damn it, this is already the fifth time he has Summoned the Susanoo, is he some sort of Jinchuriki? Where is he getting so much Chakra from?"
Although Kuroto was still calm, he still started to feel doubtful.
The two sides have yet not fought for too long, but in this short battle, Kuroto has already destroyed the Susanoo summoned by Shinichi four times already.
Shinichi should definitely be exhausted by now.
But every time Kuroto destroys the Susanoo with the Golden Sword, Shinichi is again able to summon the Susanoo, and even if that's the case, why has his Chakra not dropped? This fact really bugged Kuroto.
'It seems that my initial guess is wrong, his Mangekyou Sharingan ability is not as simple as postponing the injury, damn, the Mangekyou Sharingan abilities are all really broken… none of them could be simple…!'
