The Giant Water Monster let out a deafening roar!
Its massive, hunched body suddenly straightened, breaking through the ceiling and shattering the castle!
Bricks, stones, broken beams, and glass rained down, sparkling with a rainbow of light under the early morning sun!
Faced with this disaster-like scene, one that offered no means of escape, there was no need for words—only battle!
Uchiha Shi spread his hands, gripping his sword with one and reaching to his back waist with the other.
A flick, a pull, a throw!
Four shurikens, trailing black threads, pierced the air and firmly embedded themselves in the roof, which had been torn apart by the water monster.
He took two steps back, pulling the threads taut.
Then, he waved a kunai, tying the ends of the four threads to the ring at the end of the kunai, and firmly drove it into the floor beneath his feet.
Uchiha Shi then focused intently on the four paths traced by the threads, leading upwards.
Without hesitation, he flipped and leaped, dashing up the inclined threads at nearly a 70-degree angle!
Amidst the falling debris, he nimbly maneuvered along the four threads, slicing through the air like a bulldozer, advancing upward!
His water blade cut through the air in crescent arcs, shredding any obstacles in his path, until finally, he stepped to the edge of the hole in the castle's roof, climbed to the top, and stood on the cylindrical dome.
He stared directly at Hozuki Suigetsu, who stood atop the Giant Water Monster's head.
His crimson eyes, with their spinning tomoe, locked onto the enemy's position, calculated the possible paths, and predicted the enemy's actions.
However, Uchiha Shi soon frowned.
Faced with Hozuki Suigetsu, who carried a blunt sword and a large sword, and wielded a Lightning Blade, he couldn't imagine how the enemy would move.
Even during the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Hozuki Suigetsu revived by Yakushi Kabuto only fought using Water Transformation Technique, never touching a single sword, and no one managed to seal him before the end.
For Uchiha Shi, who had intelligence on most Kage-level shinobi in the world, the most frustrating thing about this guy was that he was a complete intelligence black hole.
There was no telling what abilities he possessed; he could pull out a Steam Danger Burst or some other new technique at any moment, leaving you helpless.
The battle of shinobi is a battle of intelligence.
This was a completely different experience from fighting a Kage-level shinobi whose every move was predictable.
And now, the only known weakness of the enemy was that his Water Transformation Technique was countered by Lightning Release.
The paralysis effect of Lightning Release prevented the water from fully liquefying.
Uchiha Shi's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the Lightning Blade in the enemy's hand, then glanced up at the thick clouds in the sky.
A bold idea formed in his mind.
If he could snatch the Lightning Blade from Hozuki Suigetsu, could he use its inherent ability to summon lightning and replicate the Lightning Release: Kirin?
The technique of Kirin had been clearly demonstrated by Itachi in the original story, and the main difficulty of this S-rank technique lay in controlling the direction and speed of the lightning, as well as preventing it from striking the user.
With his Sharingan, Uchiha Shi could see the lightning, so the challenge was just in summoning it.
As for whether it would strike him, that didn't matter much.
By provoking and defeating five pursuing shinobi, Uchiha Shi had achieved his goal.
He had opened a door for Hozuki Suigetsu, an opportunity to meet Kiri no Sen'nin and participate in the Mist Village coup.
For this prodigy, who was destined to walk this path, it was an invitation he couldn't refuse.
From this point on, the fate of Tsunade could be left to the Mizukage to worry about, at least until Hozuki Suigetsu met Sen'nin.
The harsh words he had forced Tsunade to swallow were also aimed at achieving this goal.
Having done this much, Uchiha Shi could finally face death without any burden!
Say what you will, do what you must!
Uchiha Shi immediately narrowed his eyes, standing beneath the dark clouds and howling wind, and grinned as he shouted:
"Prodigy of the Mist, have you ever seen a technique fall from the sky?!"
Hozuki Suigetsu frowned, wondering what this brat was up to.
However, after being outsmarted by Uchiha Shi twice, even losing an eye, Hozuki Suigetsu was on full alert and had summoned his best sword and the giant water monster, with the sole purpose of crushing this brat to death!
He wanted to crush all variables at the earliest stage.
With this thought, he raised his hand, and the water monster immediately formed a massive water hand from its body, lifting it high, and slapped it down at Uchiha Shi like swatting a fly!
And that wasn't all, Hozuki Suigetsu's eyes turned cold, and he gathered chakra in his raised hand, condensing it into liquid bullets at his fingertips.
Water Release: Water Gun Technique.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Water bullets fired in rapid succession, tracing deadly arcs and sealing off all possible escape routes!
Faced with such dense attacks, Uchiha Shi bent his body, stepped on the cylindrical dome, shattering the bricks, and leaped high, dodging the massive hand.
He gripped his sword with both hands, hardened his skin, and without dodging the water bullets, he brought down a powerful slash aimed at Hozuki Suigetsu's forehead!
Seeing this, Hozuki Suigetsu sneered.
He had been waiting for this opportunity!
After using the hardening technique, the opponent's body would inevitably stiffen, and this would be the best time to kill him!

On the other side of the battlefield, the ground shook and the air roared as a purple tail swept through countless trees, sending a thunderous shockwave.
Orochimaru, wielding the Kusanagi Sword, softened his body and attacked Shennong, who was bleeding profusely, from various angles with the sword's lengthening and shortening blade.
Shennong, however, did not dodge, and after being cut, his wounds healed almost instantly.
He endured the attacks, smashed the ground, and lifted a massive boulder, leaping to crush Orochimaru, who stood atop the sea of snakes.
Then, the imposing Rashōmon Gate rose from the ground!
Booming and rumbling, not far from this intense battlefield, in a forest that had been flattened, Uchiha Seiichiro, with bloodshot eyes, dashed towards the headquarters of the Evil God Sect.
On his back was a massive scroll, as tall as a person, and he wore a high-collar cloak with the Uchiha Clan Emblem—a red and white fan.
Seiichiro, with his crimson Sharingan, constantly observed the road and the sky, as rocks, trees, sandstorms, and burning snake corpses rained down around him.
He didn't know why there was a sudden battle, nor did he care.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with hatred and regret.
The two tomoe in his crimson Sharingan spun fiercely, and one of his eyes had already evolved to the three-tomoe stage.
"Wait for me, I'm almost there!"
"This time, I won't run. I will save you!"
"Uchiha Shi!"
Still writing, here's one chapter.
