บท 276: Chapter – 272 Played Around
'Is it possible that the Sharingan in his eye sockets has evolved to Mangekyou Sharingan?' – Tsukihi temporarily had this thought, and her attention was again on the pattern in Hiruko's eyes.
However, this thought was soon dispelled as the pattern of Sharingan in Hiruko's eyes was that of a simple Sharingan, that is the three tomoe state.
Tsukihi thought, 'No, he does not have the Mangekyou Sharingan.'
With Hiruko's character, if he had Mangekyou Sharingan, he would have definitely shown it out in the open without any concealment by now. Hiruko wouldn't be as cautious as Tsukihi. As such, Tsukihi can conclude without a doubt that Hiruko does not have the Mangekyou Sharingan.
'But its surprising that even with just a base Sharingan Hiruko is able to put Orochimaru in Genjutsu'
This was surprising, after all, who is Yumie?
A Sannin!
Even if Genjutsu is her weakness, it wouldn't be to the point that amateurs such as Hiruko, who have just gotten a pair of Sharingan will be able to affect.
Yet it's happening here!
'How come his Visual Prowess is so high?' – Doubts were flooding Tsukihi's mind.
Despite the many doubts in her heart, Tsukihi knew that now was not the time to delve into them, so putting away her thoughts, she brought out shuriken from her sleeves and threw them towards Hiruko.
Whiiish… Whiish… Whiish… Whiish
Accompanied by the sharp sound of cutting through the wind, each spinning Shuriken gleaming with cold light went towards Hiruko at different speeds and angles.
Hiruko with his Sharingan was obviously able to see the trajectories of the incoming Shuriken.
The corners of his lips arched, he did not even feel the need to rely on Swift Release, his body swayed from one position to another, and he managed to dodge each of the Shuriken with minimal movements.
"Is that the best you can do?" – Hiruko said in a mocking tone.
Ding… Ding…
But before he can be too happy, Hiruko heard the sound of a metal collision coming from behind him.
The spectators were able to see that the Shuriken thrown by Uchiha Tsukihi collided with each other after they went past Hiruko.
After multiple collisions, from one Shuriken to another, the trajectories of the Shuriken's changed, two shurikens shot backward, while a third one accelerated in the direction of Yumie, who was under the effect of Genjutsu.
As soon as he realized that something was wrong, Hiruko turned his head and noticed the two Shuriken coming towards him.
But the Kinetic Energy of the two Shuriken coming towards him was obviously decreased because of the multiple collision, as such speed was slower and because Hiruko could use Steel Release, he did not panic, and as soon as his arms darkened, he immediately raised his hands and caught the two Shuriken between his finger.
After successfully catching the two shurikens, Hiruko turned and shot both of them towards Tsukihi, "How about you try to dodge these!"
Tsukihi smiled and threw two more Shuriken.
One of the Shurikens thrown by Tsukihi collided with one of the incoming Shurikens thrown by Hiruko.
The other Shuriken thrown by Tsukihi missed the Shuriken thrown by Hiruko by an inch, and went towards Hiruko, while the shuriken thrown by Hiruko was coming towards Tsukihi.
Hiruko chuckled and raised his arm to catch the incoming Shuriken.
While Tsukihi seemed to have a look of horror, as it was already too late to block the incoming Shuriken.
Hiruko knew that his attack succeeded, and he was feeling excited.
But just as the Shuriken thrown by Hiruko touched Tsukihi, Tsukihi's body exploded into a cloud of white smoke, while the Shuriken that was coming towards Hiruko turned into Tsukihi.
Hiruko face changed immediately, he instantly activated the Swift Release and was about to flicker away, when suddenly the ground under Hiruko's feet turned into a swamp, effectively restricting his movements.
At the same time, a pair of bandages trapped Hiruko's hand, restricting his hand movements.
Hiruko struggled to break free, and he actually did, but the moment he broke free of the bandages was the exact moment when Tsukihi pierced her Kunai in the chest of Hiruko.
The Kunai plunged into Hiruko's chest, and cut effectively cut through the muscles but just at the moment when it was about to puncture the heart, a loud metal clashing sound echoed.
Undoubtedly Hiruko managed to use Steel Release to surround his heart in a protective covering and instantly kicked the bitch in the stomach sending her flying away.
BOOOooooommmMMMM!!!
The moment Hiruko kicked the bitch in the stomach, her body exploded creating another loud explosion that shook the mountain.
Cough! Cough…!
Soon the dust and smoke cleared to reveal a damaged-up mountain top, Hiruko's figure stood in the middle with a pretty beat-up state, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth, and clothes burned to cinders.
Cough…! Cough!
Next, Yumie's figure was revealed, with a line of blood dripping along her thighs from the point where a Shuriken pierced her.
But there was no figure of Tsukihi.
Just when everyone wondered where she is, the Katana lying on the ground turned into Tsukihi.
Wiping away the blood from the corners of his mouth, Hiruko observed everything.
Looking at the wound on Yumie's thighs, and all the things that happened in the few last seconds, Hiruko understood what happened.
Realizing that he was played by Uchiha Tsukihi, Hiruko roared in anger, "Damn it, you… you…!"
A very similar feeling sprouted in the heart of Yumie (Orochimaru).
The fact that she was put in a Genjutsu by someone like Hiruko was unacceptable and touching the wound on her thigh, looking at the red blood Yumie felt more terrible.
What's more unacceptable was for her, a Sannin to be saved a mere young Kunoichi, even if she is from the Uchiha Clan.
A sense of shame that was never felt before grew in her heart.
"Sharingan…" – was what Yumie, muttered as she looked at Hiruko's eyes and then at Tsukihi's eyes, and this is the moment when the obsession gain to Sharingan took birth.
"Alright, that's enough already…"
Just as Hiruko was about to continue his attack, Tendo Pain's indifferent voice came.
Hiruko was not done, how can he not return the shame he suffered by being played around by Uchiha Tsukihi, and he retorted to Pain's command, "I will finish them soon enough!"
Tendo Pain glared at Hiruko, and his tone became colder, "Don't make me repeat myself, I have seen your performance more than enough, there is no need to continue anymore, it is only wasting everyone's time."
To be honest, Pain was a little disappointed with the performance shown by Hiruko, even after successfully completing the ritual.
Pain can see that Hiruko's strength has greatly improved, but the fact that Hiruko couldn't even hold his own against two young Kunoichi greatly disappointed him.
Sasori added with a lightly mocking tone, "It appears that Pain expected too much from you!"
The other members of Akatsuki either sneered, showed disdain, or were disappointed.
Although the performance of the two Kunoichi was indeed a bit unexpected, Hiruko was still too pathetic in their opinion.
Hiruko wanted to retort, but understanding that what Pain said was indeed true, he really was unable to suppress both of them, so he didn't know what to say anymore.
Seeing the disdain and contempt directed towards him, Hiruko felt unprecedentedly aggrieved.
