Snowflakes drifted eerily across the lake, and the raging inferno was frozen and suppressed. A young man in blue, holding an ice blade, slowly emerged from beneath the flames.

"It's Ice Release Kekkei Genkai!!"

Finally, the suppressed voices erupted.

Faced with the overwhelming visual impact, Itachi's expression finally changed, but his mind remained undisturbed.

Neither the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique nor the Great Fireball Technique consumed much of his chakra.

But the exquisite ice technique before us is hard to say.

'Could it be that they want to use this competition to demonstrate their strength to the clan and gain more attention?'

'No, that's not right. His eyes—the murderous intent in his eyes has intensified!'

Itachi instinctively retreated.

This is the absolute consciousness he cultivated through countless bloody battles.

In an instant, two figures identical to Huang emerged silently from the ice flames and easily shattered his three shadow clones.

If he doesn't back down, he might also get hurt.

but!

This is not over yet!

The itachi, barely managing to steady himself, felt a slight jolt. When he looked up again, three figures were already approaching, and in this tense, illusory situation, it was impossible to distinguish between the real and the fake!

'Konoha Style Swordsmanship: Dance of the Crescent Moon!'

He instantly realized this, and his Sharingan, which had been dormant for a long time, appeared at this moment, and a kunai fell into his palm.

'boom.'

Without the slightest hesitation, Itachi instantly shattered one of his clones, slipped through the opening, and created a safe distance.

The boy he was fighting was increasingly beyond his imagination, and he needed to stay steady and take him seriously.

Upon witnessing this scene, Huang's face revealed a sinister smile. As the single tomoe appeared, the speed pill he held between his teeth was instantly crushed.

"Secret Sword: Moon Shadow!"

Even Itachi, who had activated his Sharingan, struggled to catch the speed that Ara Setsuna unleashed. More accurately, he could catch it but couldn't immediately transmit the information to his brain and make the right judgment.

However, the safe distance it had defined for itself was crossed in an instant.

It was too late to form hand seals or escape!

'Die, Uchiha Itachi!!!'

Blood stained the ice blade as it slowly fell.

Chapter 18 Awakening.

Warm blood stained the crystalline ice blade.

But this is not the result Huang wanted!

At the critical moment, Itachi Uchiha used his left hand to firmly hold the blade, and despite the excruciating pain, he did not loosen it in the slightest.

This attack confirmed one thing for him: the boy in front of him really wanted to kill him!

That undisguised hatred was just as intense as his loathing for this corrupt family.

Fortunately, his eyes saw through the blade's trajectory at the most crucial moment.

otherwise.......

Huang used all his strength to frantically push the blade in his hand, but his blood-stained palm was like a rough, hard boulder, firmly holding the blade in place, preventing it from advancing even an inch.

The whole audience was silent.

No one had ever imagined that such a sudden and dramatic change could occur in such a fleeting moment.

Despite never having carried out a single mission, Ara managed to suppress Itachi to such an extent that he even managed to injure him!

This situation was truly unexpected by everyone.

It's important to know that Itachi was already quite cautious after opening the passage, leaving himself enough reaction distance.

But who would have thought that Huang actually had some hidden talents!

That ghostly speed combined with his uncanny swordsmanship was a nightmare for any opponent.

It was fortunate that the challenger was Itachi; otherwise, this sparring match would have already ended.

"Did Ara win?"

After a short while, a murmured question was heard.

Is he still a newly graduated genin?

Such strength is worthy of being called a Chunin, or even a Special Jonin!

No wonder there were rumors that Lord Yashiro wanted to recommend him to the police department. They were initially unconvinced, thinking he was too young, but now it seems that his abilities are more than enough.

"It's too early to draw such a conclusion, after all, Itachi hasn't actually used his Sharingan yet."

One of the clansmen responded calmly.

Although it seems that Ara has the upper hand at the moment, the main reason is that Itachi underestimated his opponent.

Aside from the initial shuriken shadow clones, which were not bad, he did not use any powerful ninjutsu, so he must have had some energy left.

In contrast, Ara launched a strong offensive from the very beginning, without any sign of stopping. Moreover, both his swordsmanship and large-scale ice release techniques were extremely taxing on his stamina and chakra.

The most direct proof is that the blade can no longer advance even an inch.

Of course, the really important point is that they are from the Uchiha clan.

As long as the Sharingan is there, there are endless possibilities for turning the tide!

'Do not! '

'I absolutely, absolutely, will kill you!!'

Huang roared madly in his heart.

He never treated this match as a mere exchange of skills. Even at the cost of a mental breakdown, he finally succeeded in replicating Hayate Gekko's other signature ability, Moon Shadow, on the sixth day, all in order to completely kill Itachi.

This is because it's when Itachi is at his weakest, and it's also his only chance at this stage!

Once missed, it's gone forever.

"Secret Technique: The Sound of Wind and Cranes!"

A low growl, filled with gnashing teeth, swept across the lake, and biting wind and snow surged in response. Sharp icicles pierced through the air from all sides, determined to pierce through anything in sight.

This is the biggest difference between demonic arts and ninjutsu: no hand seals are needed!

However, at this moment, Uchiha Itachi returned to his usual calm. Even with the ice shards approaching, his expression remained unchanged as he quietly watched the boy who refused to meet his gaze.

Let me see.

'Who's behind this?'

The kunai in his right hand slipped silently to the ground.

Since it shattered the shadow clones of the desolate land, it has accomplished nothing. Even during the stalemate, Itachi did not use this ninja tool to break the deadlock, and now it is just letting it fall.

‘Crack. ’

The clear, penetrating sound exploded in Huang's ears.

A log was instantly torn apart by several icicles.

'Substitution Jutsu!'

Just before the ice shards descended, Itachi Uchiha managed to form hand seals and escape!

What kind of calm and collected mindset does this guy possess in the face of danger?

Seeing the flying wood chips, Huang's eyes widened in fury. He looked up to find the other person's location, but a sudden, sharp pain made him bend over abruptly.

This changed my perspective.

The gloomy sky was distorted by blood, all sounds were completely blocked out, and stiff limbs could not muster any strength...

'This is? ’

'Magical Shackles Technique!'

'when? ’

Huang kept asking himself questions.

He never made eye contact with Itachi when he activated his Sharingan, so how could he have fallen into a genjutsu?

'Could it be? '

'Could it be?'

"That's right, it's that kunai."

The voice returned to his ears, but it was the voice of the person he hated most!

"Go ahead."

"Why do you want to kill me?"

"Who instructed them?"

Itachi appeared silently in their field of vision, like a god in this blood-red world, capable of manifesting at any time and place.

Huang, on the other hand, was pinned to a giant wedge, unable to exert any strength.

This.

It's a suppression at the Sharingan level!

"Ah."

Huang sneered, offering no response, his eyes filled with undisguised hatred.

"It's okay, I have time to waste with you."
