Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The intense sounds of fighting continued to echo under the quiet sky.
On the training ground, Aoba and Itachi's figures were sometimes shouting at each other, sometimes close to each other. They were only at the age of little kids, but they displayed different styles!
At this time, ten days had passed since the day Aoba defeated Itachi.
Itachi kept his promise and withstood the pressure from the family. Aoba also tactfully did not ask more. Since Itachi could appear in front of him again, it proved that the other people in Uchiha Clan would not come to find trouble with him in a short time.
And it was from that day on that Itachi, who had not yet recovered from his injuries, took the initiative to propose a spar.
However, the rules were no longer limited to physical skills but in the real sense of a duel.
Coincidentally, Aoba also wanted to see exactly how strong Itachi was at this time. In addition, he could also gain a lot of experience from fighting, so he naturally agreed readily.
However, the result of this confrontation was completely different!
Itachi, who was at full power, even if he was injured in battle, completely crushed Aoba.
During the entire process, Itachi only relied on the incomparably skilled three-body techniques, the sword technique in his hand, and other basic methods to play around with him. This caused him to be exhausted almost 80% of the time. Aoba didn't even manage to fight with Itachi once, and he was so aggrieved that he was exhausted and defeated.
Although [Hardening] and [Hakuda] were very practical, it was useless if they couldn't touch anyone.
This was the first time that Aoba felt that the three-body techniques were abnormal!
Without using [Eye Of Perception], he had no idea that what he was attacking with all his strength was a wooden stake, and it was only a clone.
Only then did he know what Itachi said after the defeat that day was not because he was unwilling or could not afford to lose, but because he was telling the truth.
He was indeed 'clumsy' to the point where he couldn't even touch the corner of Itachi's clothes.
Almost from the moment the battle began, Itachi seemed to have already written the script and then firmly controlled the situation, making Aoba, who was fighting him, feel incredibly awkward and uncomfortable.
That feeling was like a cicada pupa that was caught in a spider web —-the more it struggled, the faster it would die.
After being easily defeated by Itachi, Aoba indeed felt very disappointed for a moment. He originally thought that he was already very strong. He had clearly trained so hard and had the help of the golden finger system, but in front of a true super genius, he still seemed to be not worth mentioning.
It had to be said that Itachi, who had gone all out, gave him a good lesson.
And also woke him up!
Compared to those truly awesome big shots and cheats, you are not strong at all, and you are even pitifully weak!
However, Aoba was not beaten down because of this. It was certain that he was disappointed and unwilling, but it also aroused his fighting spirit!
'As a swindler who was willing to work hard and willing to bleed and sweat, why should I be inferior to others!'
Therefore, Aoba's masochistic tendencies directly erupted. He asked Itachi to take out one to two hours of time every day to come here to practice with him.
Itachi, who was initially been worried that Aoba would not be able to recover from this setback, immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this request and then readily agreed.
Anyway, as long as he completed the original training task on time, the extra time would be free for Itachi to control. It was not bad to use it for practice. Most importantly, his father would not ban him anymore and gave him a certain degree of freedom.
This was great!
Therefore, every day, Itachi would take some time to come here to find him on time in the next few days. After the battle ended, he would return to Uchiha's encampment and receive Shisui's guidance and cultivation.
Although he seemed to be busier every day, for some reason, Itachi suddenly liked this kind of fulfilling life.
Especially when he thought of how he could change his ways to abuse Aoba every day, Itachi even had a satisfied smile on his face when he slept.
...
Yes, ten days had passed.
Aoba had been abused for a full ten days, and his battle record had come to the number of 11 battles, one victory, and ten defeats.
And the only victory was won by stealing chickens from the unfair match between Itachi and the rules.
However, after adapting to Itachi's comprehensive strength, Aoba's improvement was almost every day. Coupled with the continuous training and the support of the medicinal bath, he felt that he was about to break through again!
"Konoha Tornado!"
"Windmill!"
Bang!
After using two extremely similar body techniques, Aoba kicked Itachi's clone to pieces and retreated without even thinking!
Sure enough!
The three rows of swords were almost seamlessly nailed to the ground.
If Aoba had reacted a little slower, he could only activate [Hardening] to resist, which would only consume his physical strength for no reason.
Just as Aoba stood firm, a stone behind him suddenly burst out a circle of white smoke!
Itachi, who had long used the Transformation Spell to ambush here, held Kunai in his hand and stabbed toward Aoba's back without a sound. At the same time, his other hand held the transparent thread in his hand and pulled it back.
The sword in his hand, which had been flying in the air at some unknown time, whistled as it flew over.
This pincer attack had almost instantly sealed off all of Aoba's escape routes.
This was not the first time that Aoba had experienced the feeling of being stuck in a 'mud pit'. And now, no matter what happened, he was able to calmly and calmly respond. He was no longer like a mad bull that had run amok in the beginning.
[Hardening]!
In the face of the double pincer attack, Aoba immediately carried [Hardening] on his back. Then with a stern glare, he took the initiative to hit Kunai in Itachi's hand with his back.
The sharp Kunai failed to pierce through the skin of Aoba and [Hardening], but Itachi was directly pushed back by this great force, losing his balance.
Seeing this, the unreasonable Aoba grabbed Itachi's shoulders with his backhand and then exerted strength in his waist and crotch at the same time. He made a 'heaven and earth fall ' posture and instantly threw him into the air. It just happened to collide with the flying sword in his hand.
And Itachi was also pricked into a hedgehog!
But in the face of this situation, Aoba did not lower his guard because that Itachi definitely could not be a real body!
In the next second, with a bang, Itachi, who had been stabbed into a hedgehog, directly turned into a wooden stake.
And just as he looked around with extreme vigilance, Aoba finally found Itachi hiding in the tree.
But he found it too late because Itachi had already formed the last seal!
"Fire Escape - Phoenix Fire Technique!"
Aoba, who had seen Itachi use C-grade ninjutsu for the first time, subconsciously cursed.
Then, without even thinking about it, he turned around and ran!
Then, like a phoenix flower seed that was shot out with a single touch, the flames that came out of Itachi's mouth immediately spread out in all directions.
