More than ten small, blazing fireballs shot out of his mouth, while he waved his hands, and several shuriken hidden behind the flames were also fired at Itachi.
The overwhelming flames and hidden weapons instantly filled the field of vision with firelight.
Seeing this, Itachi quickly formed hand seals: "Water Release: Water Wall!"
In an instant, a curtain of water rose up from the ground, covering his entire body.
chi chi...
Several fireballs struck the water curtain, stirring up large plumes of white steam. The entire training ground was instantly enveloped in rising mist, extinguishing Sasuke's Phoenix Flame and causing the shuriken mixed in to clatter to the ground.
Sasuke's heart sank. Ignoring his impending depletion of chakra, he gritted his teeth and rushed into the billowing steam, throwing a final punch at Itachi's blurry figure.
……
……
in the audience.
Naruto was completely dumbfounded.
He had to admit that Sasuke was amazing!
Fire Release, Phoenix Flower, Shuriken, Taijutsu...
Sasuke's attacks were so fast they were dazzling.
"That guy actually used the Fireball Jutsu to this extent...!"
Thinking of himself, Naruto felt deflated.
Besides his multiple shadow clones, all he has left is a half-finished Rasengan.
If I were in Sasuke's position, I'm afraid Itachi would easily counter me in three moves, right?
Realizing this, he clenched his fists and made a silent vow.
I must master the Rasengan as soon as possible!
Sakura, already cupping her cheeks in her hands, exclaimed with stars in her eyes, "Sasuke is so handsome!"
The firelight reflected in her watery eyes, making her look like a fan watching an idol drama.
Kakashi nodded slightly, though he was still slightly less flamboyant than he was in his youth, but his expression was unusually serious.
"Hmm... By the standards of a newly graduated genin, this performance is top-notch. Chakra control and on-the-spot adaptability are both impeccable."
……
……
on the screen.
Itachi sensed Sasuke's determination and showed no mercy.
He ducked low, deftly dodging Sasuke's straight punch, and flicked his right index finger forward, precisely striking Sasuke's forehead.
"Smack!" Sasuke felt a sharp pain on his forehead, his punching motion froze, and he involuntarily stopped moving, staggering back two steps.
The next second, Itachi's outstretched hand was already pressed against Sasuke's neck like a blade, and he said helplessly, "Sasuke, isn't that enough?"
Sasuke stood frozen in place, staring blankly at the hand blade held against his neck. His fist slowly loosened, his heart filled with frustration.
I can't beat them... I can't beat them at all!
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Sasuke have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
Just as Sasuke was despairing because of the difference in strength, a gentle and quiet female voice suddenly came from the side of the training ground: "Sasuke, Itachi, stop training, it's time for lunch!"
Sasuke was startled and looked in the direction of the sound in disbelief.
A gentle and dignified woman was standing by the training field.
With her long, smooth, black hair and kind, beautiful face, she was smiling as she watched the two brothers in the arena.
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Sasuke have been detected! Emotional value +2000!]
Chapter 35 Erzhuzi: It's so delicious!
"Mother?!"
Sasuke murmured a low cry, his black pupils suddenly dilating.
That wasn't an image on a screen, but my mother, who was really there in front of me!
"Mother!!"
The next moment, Sasuke could no longer hold back, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He suddenly turned around and rushed over, throwing himself into Mikoto's arms, holding his mother tightly with both arms, unwilling to let go.
The familiar fragrance wafts in, and the warm embrace feels real.
The long-lost scent and warmth made Sasuke's nose tingle, and his tears flowed even more profusely.
hateful!
Why...why can this dream feel so real?
Is this really a dream?!
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Sasuke have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
Mikoto paused slightly, looking down in surprise at her son who was crying uncontrollably in her arms. She quickly and gently wiped away his tears: "What's wrong, Sasuke?"
Itachi was also taken aback by Sasuke's sudden action.
He scratched his head and looked at his mother awkwardly: "Maybe... it's my fault."
Itachi thought his younger brother's unusual behavior was because he was always busy with work and repeatedly stood Sasuke up, which made his brother resentful.
"I'm sorry, Sasuke," he said guiltily in a low voice, "I've been so busy with the security force lately that I haven't had a chance to train with you..."
Before Itachi could finish speaking, Sasuke abruptly released his mother, turned around and shielded her tightly behind him, glaring at Itachi with a wary expression, and shouted sharply, "Mom, watch out for him! This guy... he'll kill everyone one day!"
"Wha...what?"
Mikoto was taken aback by Sasuke's sudden words.
Itachi was also taken aback, then gave a wry smile: "..."
He was completely confused.
He had only stood Sasuke up a few times, so how did Sasuke come to think of him as a villain who would kill everyone?
Mikoto looked at her son with a puzzled expression, then turned to look at Itachi, completely baffled as to why Sasuke was behaving so strangely.
……
in the audience.
The expressions on their faces varied as they saw Sasuke reveal such a vulnerable side.
Naruto stared wide-eyed, speechless for a long time.
Sasuke, who is usually so cool and aloof, has this side to him?
Shocked, Naruto also felt a pang of heartache.
After all, having experienced the dream, he could understand Sasuke's feelings of having regained what he had lost and fearing losing it again.
[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Seeing Sasuke so vulnerable and helpless for the first time, Sakura couldn't help but turn to Kakashi and whisper, "Kakashi-sensei, do you know what happened? Why is Sasuke like this?"
Kakashi's expression darkened upon hearing this, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes, but he did not reply.
As the Third Hokage's most trusted subordinate and former captain of the Anbu, Kakashi was naturally aware of the tragedy that befell the Uchiha clan.
However, the destruction of the Uchiha clan had far-reaching implications, and Sakura and the others were still young, so it was obviously inappropriate to reveal the truth to them at this time.
Seeing Kakashi shake his head with a serious expression, Sakura could only bite her lip and stop asking questions, turning instead to look worriedly at Sasuke in the arena.
At the same time, Kakashi was secretly filled with doubt and unease.
The dream Sasuke is currently in seems to be exactly the same as the world Naruto experienced before.
In this way, he could conclude that there was indeed someone else behind this series of bizarre events, someone that Naruto himself could not control.
Who is it?
Using this method to simulate a near-realistic dream world, guiding Naruto and Sasuke to immerse themselves in it one after another... what exactly is their purpose?
Kakashi pondered silently, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
……
in the dark.
Shi Yu gazed at Kakashi, whose brows were furrowed in the audience, and a knowing smile appeared on her lips.
As expected of a renowned elite Jonin...
Shi Yu gave a soft hum and quickly turned her attention back to the screen.
He couldn't stop smiling as he watched his emotions soar.
He truly lives up to his nickname "Second Pillar".
In just one brief encounter, it generated tens of thousands of emotional points.
Shi Yu couldn't help but chuckle, overjoyed.
I've always said that Erzhuzi is full of bitterness and hatred, and he's the perfect leeks to be harvested. I was right.
In fact, when he first activated the system, he had considered using Sasuke as the first test subject.
Compared to the carefree and cheerful Naruto, Sasuke's deep-seated hatred and obsession are obviously more likely to trigger huge emotional fluctuations.
If Sasuke were given a special episode of "Night of the Massacre" on an endless loop, like in "Triangle," where he repeatedly experiences the pain of losing his loved ones, he could probably reap a considerable amount of emotional rewards every day.
However, Shigure shrugged.
After all, he's a dream-fulfilling master, not some evil spirit that creates nightmares.
