His words fell with a resounding thud!
Under the mask, Hozuki Suigetsu's purple eyes widened slightly.
"What kind of joke are you playing?"
In the next moment, his expression turned fierce, a glint of anger rising in his eyes as he threw a punch at Uchiha Shi's face with all his might.
Boom!
Seeing this, Uchiha Shi not only didn't panic but even laughed.
This meant he had found the flaw!
This kind of rhetoric was something the old man Uchiha Shun had used on him before using the Prohibited Technique Self-Destruction.
Because he saw through Uchiha Shi's desire to die, he confidently deduced Uchiha Shi's behavior and forcefully inserted a bunch of reasons that sounded logical.
Even though it was completely irrelevant, it left Uchiha Shi with no way to refute it.
It was a completely fabricated argument based on the available information.
Since Uchiha Shi had already determined from the original story that
Hozuki Suigetsu would ultimately choose to follow Yagura to rebuild the Mist Village and later join Zabuza in an assassination and coup after Yagura was controlled, he could use this conclusion to reverse engineer a set of rhetorical attacks to strike at Hozuki Suigetsu's heart.
To shock his inner self and refute his will!
The result might not align with reality, but if he hit the right nerve, it could give Uchiha Shi a perfect opportunity to turn the tables!
Now, the opportunity had come!
In the gap before the punch, Uchiha Shi had already prepared.
Immediately, his face twisted in a grimace, he met the large fist head-on, not dodging, and took it straight on the face.
His right hand swiftly pulled out a needle bag containing fine senbon from the sleeve on his left wrist.
With a flick of his wrist, sixteen fine senbon shot from a blind spot, aiming for Hozuki Suigetsu's heart, eyes, and throat!
Uchiha Shi knew that with the Water Transformation Ability, Hozuki Suigetsu could largely ignore physical damage.
But that was only if he could react in time.
Now, with the distance closed, Hozuki Suigetsu enraged by his words, and Uchiha Shi using such a devious shooting technique, the senbon shot from a blind spot, unnoticed!
This move was a guaranteed kill!
Hesitation means defeat!
Let me show you the true Iwagakure Assassination Technique!
Clang!
You boldly confronted Hozuki Suigetsu, who belittled your intellect!
Heart upgrade progress increased, currently: Water (96%).
The subtitle rose, but Uchiha Shi had no time to look at it, his eyes fixed intently on Hozuki Suigetsu.
Overcoming the odds, the weak defeating the strong, it might sound unrealistic, but in the ninja world, as long as you are willing to risk your life, anything is possible!
Earth Release: Earth Spear, weakened by the Rain Cutting Technique, versus Water Release Secret Technique: Water Transformation, caught off guard.
Both are top-tier defensive techniques in the ninja world, so let's see who is more devious!
Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!
The senbon shot through the air toward vital points, as Hozuki Suigetsu's punch landed on Uchiha Shi's face, he immediately sensed something was wrong.
A sudden flash of fine white light appeared in his peripheral vision, he immediately realized he had been ambushed by this Uchiha who had called him despicable.
When Hozuki Suigetsu realized the technique he had used on Terumi Mei was now being used against him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration, wanting to curse, Damn it, who is the despicable one here?!
Is this what Uchihas are like now, so good at cosplay?
With no time to think, he immediately activated Water Release: Water Transformation, partially liquefying the areas about to be hit by the senbon.
Plop! Plop! Plop! Plop!
The senbon pierced through the liquefied body parts, continuing their momentum to embed in the glass ceiling.
Despite Hozuki Suigetsu's quick evasion, under this ambush, four senbon still shot through his mask from the eye holes, two more piercing through his mask, blood gushed out.
Hozuki Suigetsu's left eye was directly shattered, the intense pain forcing him to rip off his mask and clutch his eye in agony.
The other eye, however, flared with a terrifying killing intent!
Uchiha Shi's eyes darted, realizing things had gone wrong, the kid had reacted in time.
He immediately threw a stringed shuriken, embedding it in the hall's beams, and, lifting Terumi Mei's waist, he slid away, increasing the distance.
After repositioning, he couldn't help but frown.
In the hall, the water created by Water Release: Rain Cutting had spread to the ankles.
In this enclosed environment, all techniques except Water Release were weakened, none of his shuriken, Earth Release techniques, wire cutting, or swordsmanship could cause substantial damage to Hozuki Suigetsu, who had activated Water Transformation and was on guard.
However, Hozuki Suigetsu could use the water on the ground to move at high speed and break through his defenses with the Great Water Arm Technique.
Under these conditions, not only could Uchiha Shi not save Terumi Mei, he couldn't survive himself.
If the future Fifth Mizukage, Terumi Mei, were to die here, it could be foreseen that
the Fourth Mizukage's Blood Mist Policy might not be ended.
The Mist Village might remain under the control of the Sharingan.
At the Five Kage Summit before the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Mist Village might be a hidden mole.
Saving the world was already hard enough for Naruto, and if he had to deal with a mole stabbing him in the back, who knows what impact it would have on the future storyline and outcome?
In that case, dying here would truly be in vain.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Shi's face darkened, and he glared at Terumi Mei, who was still in a mental breakdown, cursing, "Damn it! Terumi Mei, you're a real failure!"
"What did you say?! You idiot!"
Startled by the curse, Terumi Mei snapped out of it, glaring back defiantly, but seeing Uchiha Shi's face swollen like a pig's head, she almost laughed.
"Ha? You still have the nerve to glare at me?"
Uchiha Shi raised his ninjato, pointing at Hozuki Suigetsu, and said to her, "If you're awake, get ready to fight!"
"This guy was enraged by my words, don't you understand what that means?"
Hearing this, Terumi Mei's eyes widened, what had she just heard?
Uchiha Shi, the hothead, actually wanted to fight alongside her?
Before this, he had never cared about the enemy, with a clap of his hands, he would create a barrier around the enemy, separating his teammates, and start a one-on-one battle like a suicidal man.
"Hmph."
As if remembering something amusing, a mischievous smile appeared on Terumi Mei's face.
She quickly pulled Uchiha Shi up by his pants, looking at the battlefield.
Her fighting spirit reignited, she began to assess the situation.
Uchiha Shi's words had clearly hit a nerve, otherwise Hozuki Suigetsu's reaction wouldn't have been so extreme.
This meant that deep down, Hozuki Suigetsu might indeed harbor a deep-seated desire to destroy everything, turning the Mist Village into ruins.
This might be the opportunity!
