Chapter 341 Defeating
Kakashi Hatake and Sasuke Uchiha exchanged a glance, then quickly switched gears. Kakashi then moved with ghostly speed, rushing towards Itachi Uchiha, his kunai gleaming coldly, radiating a sharp aura.
However, Itachi Uchiha calmly formed hand seals and unleashed the ninjutsu "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique." Blazing flames erupted from his mouth, instantly engulfing Kakashi Hatake. But Kakashi didn't retreat; instead, he accelerated forward.
Just then, Kakashi Hatake suddenly removed the eyepatch covering his Sharingan, revealing his crimson eye. Simultaneously, his speed and strength increased dramatically. His body arced through the air, dodging Itachi Uchiha's attack, and lunged at him at an even greater speed.
Seeing this, Itachi Uchiha was slightly startled, but he remained calm. He quickly formed hand seals, preparing to unleash a more powerful ninjutsu to counter Kakashi Hatake's attack. Kakashi Hatake, on the other hand, kept a close eye on Itachi, searching for the best opportunity to strike.
Just as Kakashi Hatake charged towards Itachi Uchiha, Sasuke Uchiha was already speeding towards Naruto Uzumaki, who was wildly attacking trees. His eyes were firm and determined, because he knew time was of the essence, and every second was crucial. He had to rescue Naruto from the genjutsu as quickly as possible and then rush to Kakashi-sensei's aid.
Sasuke Uchiha moved with light and swift steps, weaving through the forest like lightning as he approached Naruto Uzumaki. When he saw Naruto's eyes, his heart sank. Those eyes had lost their former liveliness and brilliance, replaced by a blank and confused look. This was a sign of being under a genjutsu; he had to break free as quickly as possible.
Sasuke Uchiha stopped, focused his mind, and mobilized his chakra. He took a deep breath and then used a ninjutsu to dispel genjutsu on Naruto Uzumaki. His hands pressed against Naruto's body, and a powerful surge of chakra erupted from him, forming an invisible wave that directly impacted Naruto's body, disrupting the flow of his chakra.
Thanks to Sasuke's efforts, Naruto's body trembled violently, the confusion in his eyes gradually dissipating and returning to clarity. He gasped for breath, looking at Sasuke with a puzzled expression: "Sasuke? I..."
Sasuke Uchiha breathed a sigh of relief, knowing he had successfully broken Naruto Uzumaki's genjutsu. He didn't have time to explain much, simply saying, "Are you back to normal? If you are, hurry up and catch up!" With that, he turned and continued running towards the battlefield.
Naruto Uzumaki felt his head was heavy, so he shook it vigorously, trying to clear his head. Although he was still a little dizzy, he was gradually regaining consciousness. He blinked, trying to adjust to his surroundings, and then began to observe his surroundings.
"Where am I?" Naruto's gaze swept over the surrounding scenery, his mind filled with confusion. But as he looked around, his memory gradually became clear. It turned out they were in the woods beside their path!
Naruto patted his forehead, finally understanding what had happened. "So that's how it is..." he muttered to himself. The chaotic attacks he had just experienced had left him somewhat exhausted, but he knew now was not the time to rest.
He took a deep breath, rallied his spirits, and prepared to face the challenges ahead. Despite his fatigue, he resolutely stood up. His immediate priority was to quickly support Kakashi Hatake and Sasuke, and he turned and sprinted towards the source of the rumbling sound.
Not far away, on a tree trunk, Hyuga Kanan stood on a branch, leaning slightly forward, arms crossed, watching Uzumaki Naruto's departing figure, a playful smile on his lips.
"How interesting!" Hinata Kanan said softly.
Just now, during Naruto's battle with Itachi, Naruto was subjected to a genjutsu by Itachi's Sharingan, falling into a hallucination and attacking wildly. Several of these attacks came very close to the tree where he was hiding. If Sasuke hadn't arrived in time to dispel the genjutsu and restore Naruto's senses, his whereabouts would likely have been discovered.
"This kid is quite interesting; he almost gave me away. But he's still too green..." Hyuga Kanan thought to himself.
He glanced in the direction Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki had gone, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. He didn't have a good impression of those two brats, especially not members of the Uchiha clan. In his eyes, the Uchiha were all arrogant and self-important. Although Sasuke hadn't yet shown that arrogant personality, he was, after all, a member of the Uchiha clan, and would inevitably follow that path in the future.
As for Naruto Uzumaki, Kanan Hyuga was rather curious. This kid seemed to possess some kind of secret, which fascinated him. But he didn't know what that secret was. However, this didn't stop him from observing Naruto. He decided to continue following the two kids and see what kind of trouble they could cause with Itachi Uchiha.
At that moment, the battle between Itachi Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake had entered its most intense phase. Their figures moved with lightning speed, their kunai clashing incessantly, sending sparks flying. Each exchange showcased their exceptional skill, leaving onlookers in awe.
After arriving at the battlefield, Sasuke Uchiha scanned his surroundings with his sharp eyes and then joined the battle without hesitation. He wielded his sword with lightning speed, each swing carrying a sharp sword aura, leaving Itachi Uchiha somewhat flustered.
With Sasuke Uchiha joining the fray, the battle instantly intensified. The already deadlocked sides now fought with ferocious intensity. Sasuke's arrival seemed to inject a powerful force into Kakashi Hatake, making him even more determined and spirited.
On the battlefield, dust billowed and roars echoed. Uchiha Sasuke weaved between the two, his figure as swift as a ghost, elusive and unpredictable. His swordsmanship was unique and exquisite, each strike imbued with boundless killing intent and power.
Caught off guard by Sasuke's attack, Itachi Uchiha did not give up easily. Instead, he launched an even stronger counterattack, attempting to halt Sasuke's advance. However, Sasuke's strength was also considerable; his swordsmanship was specifically designed to exploit Itachi's weaknesses in combat.
In this fierce battle, Sasuke Uchiha displayed his unparalleled strength and courage. His arrival not only changed the course of the battle but also gave Itachi Uchiha a deeper understanding of his abilities.
Despite being at a disadvantage, Itachi Uchiha showed no sign of panic. His expression remained calm, his eyes resolute and composed, as if he had anticipated the predicament. He calmly dealt with the fierce attacks of Kakashi Hatake and Sasuke Uchiha. Every dodge was perfectly timed, causing their attacks to miss; every counterattack was powerful, forcing his opponents to be cautious. His composed demeanor was reminiscent of a legendary ninja, as if he had transcended the battle itself, becoming the master of the battlefield.
Sasuke Uchiha stared wide-eyed at what was happening before him, his heart filled with shock and astonishment. This was the first time he had experienced such an intense and high-level battle, and he couldn't help but realize how naive he had been before. Only now did he understand that real battles were not as simple as he had imagined, but required much more effort and sweat.
However, while this battle proved extremely challenging for Uchiha Sasuke, it also ignited his inner fighting spirit and passion. He knew that only by constantly challenging himself could he become an excellent ninja. Therefore, Uchiha Sasuke was not deterred by the difficulties; instead, he became even more excited.
As the battle progressed, Sasuke Uchiha gradually realized something: perhaps he and Kakashi-sensei, working together, really had a chance to defeat Itachi Uchiha! This thought invigorated him, as if he saw the dawn of revenge. After all, Itachi Uchiha had always been a huge burden on his heart, and now that he finally had a chance to overthrow him, how could he not be excited?
With this in mind, Sasuke Uchiha's resolve strengthened, and he resolved to throw himself wholeheartedly into the upcoming battle. He knew that this battle was not only a matter of his own life and death, but also of his hope to avenge his clan and parents. Therefore, he had to give it his all and never back down.
The battle intensified, but Itachi Uchiha gradually fell into a disadvantageous position and was on the verge of defeat. Sasuke Uchiha, on the other hand, erupted with unprecedented passion; this was the first time he had ever been so close to revenge. He wouldn't let this rare opportunity slip by, to finally kill his nightmarish brother.
As soon as Itachi Uchiha showed a slight opening, Kakashi Hatake appeared in front of him in a flash, grabbing his arms tightly and pinning him to the spot. Itachi, meanwhile, locked his three-tomoe Sharingan onto Kakashi's eyes and activated a powerful genjutsu, preparing to finish him off first.
However, the moment he activated his genjutsu on Kakashi Hatake, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, followed by a look of relief. Sasuke Uchiha, of course, wasn't about to let such a good opportunity slip by. He rapidly gathered lightning chakra in his palm, instantly unleashing a Chidori attack aimed directly at Itachi's vital points. In a mere instant, his hand, imbued with the ferocious Chidori, pierced Itachi's chest. Kakashi Hatake, who had been restraining Itachi, vanished in a puff of smoke.
