Chereads / Naruto: Shadow Mage(DROPPED) / Chapter 21 - Confrontation

Chapter 21 - Confrontation

Yasuke Nara, four years old!   Itachi Uchiha, also four years old!

 In Yasuke's original world, what could a four-year-old do?   Even in the Naruto world, it would be unusual for people to be interested in a fight between four-year-olds.

 However, because Yasuke and Itachi were respectively the new generation elites of the Nara and Uchiha clans, those watching were all paying close attention, afraid to miss any exciting moment.

 Even before Yasuke and Itachi's fight began, Daniel's residence had already attracted some boys and girls.

 These people were all new generation elites from various families.

 What they really wanted to observe was the gap between themselves and true geniuses!   "I think Itachi will definitely win. After all, the Uchiha clan is a prestigious family. What is the Nara clan?"

 "Hmph, what is the Uchiha clan? You must not have seen Yasuke just defeat many members of the Uchiha clan to say that!"

 "Exactly! Yasuke could defeat four people alone, so what is one Itachi ?"

 "But I heard that Itachi mastered Fire Style jutsu very early on and is known as the top genius within the Uchiha clan. No matter how strong Yasuke is, he probably won't win easily, right?"

 Before Yasuke and Itachi's fight began, the juniors of various families were already quietly commenting on their match.

 Without a doubt, at this moment, many people supported Yasuke, mainly because he had previously defeated four new generation elites from the Uchiha clan, proving himself even before Itachi!

 What shocked Yasuke was that in such a noisy environment, Itachi was completely unaffected by the noise, his gaze still so calm!   Or rather, composed!   And just as Yasuke made a gesture inviting Itachi to begin, Itachi's right hand moved towards his ninja tool pouch, and then several afterimages quickly shot towards Yasuke's direction!

 "It has begun!"

 Staring at the swiftly approaching afterimages, Yasuke knew they were Uchiha clan's outstanding shuriken throwing techniques!

 In the original storyline, the Uchiha clan's trademarks, aside from the Sharingan bloodline limit, were shuriken throwing techniques and powerful Fire Style jutsu!   Whether shuriken throwing techniques or Fire Style jutsu, they were very common in the ninja world.

 However, the Uchiha clan's ability to use common techniques and jutsu so well demonstrated their talent in these areas! Itachi, as a rare genius of the Uchiha clan, naturally had extraordinary talent in these aspects!

 So, when the shuriken thrown by Itachi turned into afterimages and drew beautiful arcs in mid-air, completely sealing Yasuke's escape routes, Yasuke knew that Itachi's reputation was indeed well-deserved!   "Itachi is really quite formidable."

 "But to think you can defeat me with just shuriken? Dream on!"

 Glancing towards Itachi's direction, Yasuke smiled slightly, and at the same time, reached for his ninja tool pouch and took out several shuriken.

 Perhaps Yasuke wasn't as skilled as Itachi in using shuriken, not to mention throwing them in curved trajectories. Just throwing them in a straight line and hitting the target was already a challenge for Yasuke, so in terms of shuriken proficiency, Itachi was miles ahead of Yasuke!   But in defense, Yasuke only needed his shuriken to be somewhat accurate.

 Next, several shuriken were thrown, producing a constant clinking sound.

 In that moment, Yasuke had used his shuriken to neutralize the immediate danger, but Itachi didn't give Yasuke any time to catch his breath. Immediately, more shuriken were thrown, colliding with the ones in front and forcibly changing some of their trajectories! "Itachi is indeed a genius of the Uchiha clan!"

 "His shuriken techniques alone are enough to handle an ordinary Genin. Yasuke is in trouble!"

 "Yasuke doesn't even have time to perform his secret techniques. It seems Itachi is about to win!"

 Seeing that Yasuke didn't even have time to form hand seals, many Jonin believed Yasuke had no chance of winning.

 Unfortunately!

 These people underestimated Yasuke's strength, even Itachi wasn't an exception! Really no time to form hand seals?

 No! There was time to form hand seals, but only for a few seconds!

 However, Yasuke was just a four-year-old child. Who could imagine that he could complete the Nara clan's secret technique in such a short time?

 There was only one person watching Yasuke and Itachi's confrontation who firmly believed Yasuke could complete the Nara clan's secret technique in an extremely short time!

 That person was naturally Yasuke's uncle, the head of the Nara clan, Uncle Nara!

 "Hmph, you all underestimate Yasuke!"

 "Yasuke, now is your chance!"

 With a flash of brilliance in his eyes, Uncle Nara smiled at Yasuke, and indeed, Yasuke started forming hand seals!

 Moreover, just as Yasuke was forming the seals, the shuriken thrown by Itachi hit Yasuke's body, producing a "puff" sound!

 "Substitution Jutsu?"

 It turned out that when the shuriken hit Yasuke, he had used the Substitution Jutsu to avoid the danger.

 And at the moment Yasuke avoided the danger, Itachi saw a black shadow extending on the ground, it was Yasuke's Shadow Imitation Technique!   In the distance, crouching on the ground, Yasuke completed the Nara clan's secret hand seals with a smile on his face.

 A single Shadow Imitation Technique naturally couldn't defeat Itachi.

 However, when using the Shadow Imitation Technique, Yasuke had predicted Itachi's evasion method, and as Itachi performed a backflip to escape the limited range of the Shadow Imitation Technique, Yasuke's confident voice echoed in Itachi's ears!

 "Step back two steps, Itachi, and you'll enter my Shadow Sewing Technique's range!"

 "What?"

 Suddenly hearing Yasuke's voice, a look of panic flashed in Itachi's eyes.

 Because Yasuke was completely right, as the Shadow Imitation Technique approached Itachi from the front, Yasuke's Shadow Sewing Technique bypassed the surrounding kunai and extended a black shadow from behind Itachi, blocking his escape route!   What a terrifying calculation?

 What a terrifying strategy?

 Itachi never imagined that while he was planning Yasuke's next move, Yasuke had already planned ahead of him!

 Moreover, Yasuke's strategy was flawless, Itachi stepped back and realized that another step would result in getting caught by the Shadow Sewing Technique.

 So, in a moment of panic, Itachi put his hands on the ground and leaped into the air to evade.

 But how could Itachi know that Yasuke's mention of the Shadow Sewing Technique was meant to make him jump!   In the next second!   Taking advantage of the opening Itachi exposed while in mid-air, Yasuke's hand seals changed, and with a victorious smile, he calmly said:   "Itachi, you lost!"

 "Shadow Sewing Technique!"

 "Attack!"
