Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Genjutsu Showdown.
"Uchiha Shisui?"
Upon hearing this name, Sakura, Naruto, and Granny Chiyo all showed puzzled expressions, because compared to Uchiha Itachi, who Sasuke often mentioned, the name Uchiha Shisui seemed much less known.
"In a sense, he is a more troublesome figure than Uchiha Itachi. Many of the Genjutsu that Itachi now uses originated from Shisui. For Itachi, Shisui is both a mentor and a friend," Hatake Satoru explained, as he was the most knowledgeable about Shisui among them.
He hadn't expected to encounter Shisui here. Although Shisui had left Konohagakure with Itachi, their meetings became scarce after Itachi joined the Akatsuki, to avoid detection by other members. Moreover, it was said that Shisui had been given other tasks by the Fourth Hokage, but Satoru did not inquire further.
"It's been a long time, Shisui," Itachi said, showing a trace of emotion on his face, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Yes, it has been a long time, Itachi. I didn't expect our next meeting to be under these circumstances, and for you to be so harsh on your own brother. It's not like you," Shisui joked.
"This is a family matter, it doesn't concern you."
"That won't do, Itachi. If Sasuke is your brother, then he is naturally my brother too. How could I stand by and watch my brother fall prey to the Mangekyou Sharingan's Genjutsu?"
"Don't be hypocritical here, you're one of the main culprits," Sasuke suddenly shouted from behind Shisui. At the same time, Shisui sensed danger and leaped aside, and a flash of a blade appeared where he had just been standing.
If he hadn't dodged just now, that blade would have struck him directly.
"Sasuke, you've really become less and less adorable, to actually strike at your own lifesaver."
Shisui, who had jumped to the side, said to Sasuke, momentarily stunned at the first sight of Sasuke, for the temperament Sasuke displayed now was nothing like the Sasuke he remembered.
On Sasuke now, there was no trace of the child he once was.
"You, one of the murderers of our clan, do you think I would let you go?"
Sasuke asked Shisui with a fierce look.
Although his relationship with Shisui wasn't as close as with Itachi, Shisui had held him in his arms as a child almost as often as Itachi had.
"So, what do you intend to do, Sasuke?"
"I will bring you back to Konohagakure, to kneel before our deceased clansmen and repent forever."
"Oh? Do you think you can do that?"
"Sasuke, this fool, has actually pushed the reinforcements to the enemy's side."
Naruto, who was behind them, could only fret, initially thinking Shisui was a reinforcement when he stopped Itachi from attacking Sasuke. But now Sasuke had pushed the reinforcements to the opposing side.
"Kakashi-sensei, if we were to fight these two now, what are our chances of winning?"
Naruto asked a critical question.
"If he doesn't make a move, our chances of winning are zero percent."
Kakashi said after glancing at Satoru.
"What? Kakashi-sensei, do our combined strengths really stand no chance of winning?"
Naruto, Sakura, and Granny Chiyo were all shocked.
"Shisui is known as the Uchiha clan's number one Genjutsu ninja, and you, with almost zero resistance to Genjutsu, would fall before him in an instant," Kakashi said, looking at Naruto.
"And Shisui also possesses the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan, the same eyes as Uchiha Itachi."
"What would our chances of winning be if Satoru-senpai were to make a move?"
Suddenly, Naruto asked again.
"If he is willing to make a move, our chances of winning are one hundred percent."
At this point, Naruto, Sakura, and Granny Chiyo all looked at Hatake Satoru with shocked expressions.
"Don't look at me like that, I'll get shy,"
Hatake Satoru said with a smile, waving his hand, though he seemed a bit self-absorbed.
"Satoru-senpai, please make a move quickly, otherwise Sasuke will be in danger soon."
Naruto's voice was somewhat pleading. He wanted to join the fight, but he knew that if he did, he would only be a burden to Sasuke.
"This is a battle of the Uchiha clan, beneficial for Sasuke's growth. Don't worry, these two won't kill Sasuke."
Suddenly, the three who had been talking just now all fell silent, standing still.
"What's happened to them?"
Naruto asked, puzzled.
"If I'm not mistaken, they are now engaged in a battle of Genjutsu."
Kakashi lifted his forehead protector, revealing a Sharingan, and immediately felt a tremendous spiritual force surrounding the three.
"Can we make a move against those two now?"
Suddenly, Naruto's eyes sparkled as he spoke boldly.
Sakura also looked at Kakashi, thinking that Naruto's suggestion seemed feasible.
"It's not possible. A powerful psychic force already envelops all three of them. If we get close, we'll fall into a genjutsu before we can even make a move," Kakashi explained.
Competing in genjutsu of this level was beyond even him, unless he entered Sage Mode, which could immunize him from the inadvertent genjutsu emitted by the three.
"Damn it, are we just supposed to watch Sasuke get caught in their combined attack?"
"Don't worry, it's not just Sasuke in a one-on-two situation. Shisui and Itachi are also in a one-on-two," Satoru said. The genjutsu released by the three wasn't limited to just one person; it enveloped the other two as well.
After all, Itachi and Shisui also wanted to test each other, to see how much the other had grown over the years.
Suddenly, Sasuke was seen kneeling on the ground, gasping for air, with one hand covering his Sharingan.
A sharp pain was coming from his Sharingan, clearly indicating that Sasuke was the first to fall in this genjutsu battle.
However, it was quite normal. Competing in genjutsu with two experts in genjutsu who possessed Mangekyou Sharingan, it must be said, Sasuke was truly brave.
