Konoha's Infinite Clone

Early the next morning, Sasuke ran to Itachi's room excitedly, only to find that he had already gone out.

"Going on another mission so early?"

After learning from his mother that Itachi was on a mission, Sasuke was a little frustrated. He had originally promised to compete with him, but he was not here...

Feeling a little bored, he wanted to go outside to relax, but as soon as he reached the door, he found his brother.

The same bloody smell...

As Sasuke's mental power became stronger and stronger, his perception of the outside world became more and more acute. He felt that the blood on Itachi's body in the past few days seemed to be from the same person...

Did you get involved by sparring with someone?

It's not impossible, so Sasuke didn't pay much attention to it. At this moment, he just said excitedly

"Brother, it's time for our duel!"

Itachi pointed his finger on Sasuke's forehead as if he was prepared, and said at the same time, "I have been ready for a long time, just waiting for Sasuke to take action."

"Hmph, brother just finished his mission, don't you need a rest?"

Sasuke's lips raised slightly, "I don't want to take advantage of you."

"Ah..." Itachi said absentmindedly, "It doesn't matter, the mission is still very easy after all."

"Really...Then don't say that I took advantage of you..."

Sasuke tilted his head, pointed in a direction with his thumb, and said, "Then let's go to the Forest of Death. It's a big place and it won't interfere with the battle between us."

"Okay..." Itachi smiled and said, "Let me test Sasuke's training."

"Then you have to watch carefully~"

Sasuke grinned, and the next moment his figure disappeared!

The competition has already begun at this moment, but this time it is a duel of speed!

His physical fitness has now surpassed that of regular ninjas by a lot, and in terms of speed alone, he is really not afraid of anyone.

He looked back and found that Itachi was no longer behind him, and he felt even more proud.

"What are you looking at?"

However, just when he was satisfied, Itachi's voice appeared in his ears. When he looked back, he was shocked.

Itachi unexpectedly walked side by side with him at some point, and it looked like he was far from reaching his limit!

So fast!

Sasuke never expected Itachi to have such speed. He obviously started first, but he was easily caught up. When did Itachi become so fast?

"I won't give in just like that!"

Sasuke snorted coldly. He pushed back the palms of his hands and activated the ability to burn the fruit. A large amount of flames suddenly erupted from his hands. Sasuke used the thrust of the flames to explode the air, and his speed suddenly doubled!

However, Itachi clung to him like a ghost. No matter how much Sasuke increased his speed, he could keep up with him at a perfectly parallel speed.

As the two continued to speed up, the forest of death soon arrived, and the two of them stood on both sides of the river in the forest.

The moment Sasuke landed, he pointed his finger to the sky and shouted

"Sacred Fire·Tornado Sky!"

A large amount of flames suddenly spun out from the ground under Weasel's feet. The blazing flames rotated and contracted, creating a strong and hot whirlwind as the temperature continued to rise.

At first, the wind of flames tore Itachi's body, and then the flame tornado shrank to the extreme. Under the attack of these two attacks, a huge burst of fire was produced in that area, followed by a loud explosion.

.

When he was in the Land of Waves, Sasuke saw many attacks by Norton, the Dragon King of Fire, and naturally learned some uses of fire from his hands, instead of just using pure fire like when he first got the Burning Fruit.

fire attack.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

However, as the fire burned, a water dragon appeared behind Itachi. The water dragon roared and rushed towards the flames. Amid the terrifying explosion, the water dragon firmly protected Itachi.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Claw Red!"

In the huge amount of steam generated by water and fire, Itachi's figure became clearer and clearer, and he waved countless rays of flame from top to bottom.

"Hmph, flames are ineffective against me..."

Sasuke raised his hands and held them in the air, and the countless flames that were thrown were immediately extinguished. However, although the flames disappeared, the shurikens were still wrapped in them!

This was not Sasuke's first time fighting, so naturally he would not mess up his hands and feet. He took his time and created a wall with flames.

Mirror fire!

The shuriken was firmly blocked by the wall of flames from Sasuke, and then he opened the three Magatama Sharingan and combined it with the Haki of the Observation Color to capture Itachi's traces.

"found it……"

Sasuke smiled slightly and said, "Thunder Release: Chidori!"

A ball of thunder and lightning appeared in his hand, and amidst the chirping of thousands of birds, Sasuke's entire body turned into a bolt of lightning and struck at Itachi!

Itachi couldn't avoid it, but he reacted quickly, and he quickly formed the Wind Escape Seal

"Wind Release·Vacuum Blade!"

An emerald-green long sword appeared in Itachi's hand. He backed away while waving the long sword. With a slight wave of his hand, a wind blade appeared on the long sword. The wind blade stabbed Sasuke, but he was hit by a thousand swords.

The bird pierces easily.

However, in terms of chakra attribute restraint, wind attribute restrains thunder attribute.

Therefore, even if the wind blade failed to counteract Sasuke's Chidori, it had already consumed a considerable part of its chakra. At this time, Itachi seized the most suitable opportunity - the Chidori was weakened to a certain extent, but it would not be used by Sasuke.

Chidori pressed forward.

The long sword in his hand stabbed Sasuke's Chidori hard. The tip of the sword collided with the lightning. Neither of them retreated. The energy accumulated in the collision area became larger and larger, and finally died due to overload.

There was an explosion.

Itachi used the force to retreat, but Sasuke remained motionless. He used his armed haki to resist the aftermath of the explosion, and then took advantage of this opportunity to finally lock on Itachi!

"Thunder Release: Fire Dragon Lightning Strike!"

Although the idea of ​​using the Burning Fruit to combine with Thunder Release has some gains, because the time is too short, Sasuke is currently unable to apply it to every ninjutsu.

For example, the previous Chidori couldn't wrap flames around lightning.

Because Chidori not only needs to maintain chakra, but also requires the caster to concentrate on controlling the direction. It can be said that it is a very mentally consuming ninjutsu.

Sasuke is still unable to combine the power of Burning Fruit and Thunder Release while moving at high speed, otherwise the victory could be determined by the attack just now!

And the current ninjutsu that can combine the two have a common shortcoming, that is, they are bulky.

After all, it will take a certain amount of time to combine the Thunder Release with the flames of the Burning Fruit, so the use of this compound ninjutsu must pay more attention to the opportunity to use it than normal ninjutsu, otherwise it will be easily avoided.

It's just a waste of chakra.

At this moment, Itachi jumped into the sky due to the explosion. Covered by smoke and dust, Sasuke finally found this opportunity!

Flames and thunder merged, and a flaming thunder dragon spurted out from Sasuke's mouth. The flame thunder dragon rushed towards Itachi at an extremely fast speed, faster than the previous Chidori, so fast that Itachi couldn't even move this time.

Couldn't react!

The thunder dragon that sprayed flames swallowed Weasel with a roar like a roar, and a large area of ​​land in front was cut away, turning the area into a depression like a canyon.

After the flashing thunder and bursting flames, everything returned to silence, and there was nothing in front of him, and there was no trace of Itachi...

"elder brother……"

Seeing this scene, Sasuke was shocked. He didn't expect that his attack would be so powerful after it was fully released, and he didn't expect that Itachi didn't react to the attack and didn't take any countermeasures.

But before he could say the second word, he only felt an illusion, and the next moment he saw an extra shuriken around his neck...

"Sasuke has really grown a lot..."

Itachi stood behind Sasuke, holding a shuriken in his left hand against his neck, and said, "That blow just now was really amazing. If it had been hit, even I might have lost my fighting ability. Unfortunately, there is no chance."

It has power but no accuracy. As long as it can't hit anyone, there's nothing to be afraid of no matter how powerful the ninjutsu is."

"When did you come behind me?..." Sasuke was a little reluctant, but also a little happy. He was glad that Itachi had escaped his attack, but he was still not Itachi's opponent after all.

"The moment you resisted the explosion, when I used the wind blade to fight against your Chidori, my left hand had already formed a shadow clone seal. At the moment of the explosion, I separated the shadow clone and used

Illusion."

"Genjutsu?!" Sasuke said in surprise. He has now activated the three Magatama Sharingan. How could he fall into Itachi's illusion so easily?

"That's right." Itachi said slowly, "Even the three Magatama Sharingan does not mean that it is immune to all illusions. As long as I seize the right opportunity, I can use illusions as misdirection. As long as you make a momentary mistake,

It's misleading enough."

Sasuke asked confused, "Are you saying you came behind me unknowingly?"

"Absolutely. I use shadow clones combined with illusions to make you think that the shadow clones are my true body. At the same time, I use illusions to hypnotize you and weaken my sense of existence. This is just a very simple application of a very simple illusion."

"So you have to remember that illusions are not just inherent arts, and illusions are not just illusions. A true master of illusions can not only 'create something out of nothing', but can also 'induce and hypnotize'."

This is something Itachi and Aizen learned. Although their positions are different, when it comes to playing with illusions, Aizen has indeed achieved a level of proficiency.

Inducing words, inducing things, using factors in the field to fight against the enemy, Aizen's strength is not only based on strength, but also based on combat IQ.

Sasuke relaxed his grip. He finally realized the gap between himself and Itachi. What just happened was more of a teaching than a battle.

It's just that it's not easy for Sasuke to admit defeat. He snorted coldly and said, "The next time we fight, your method won't be of use."

Itachi chuckled and took back his shuriken, and tapped Sasuke's forehead with his finger again.

"Sasuke has made great progress. Maybe my brother will not be Sasuke's opponent next time."

………………

"Hey, isn't this Shikamaru and Choji?"

On the street, Naruto saw the two former Ninja School classmates and quickly waved and said hello.

"Naruto? Aren't you going home at noon?"

Shikamaru turned his head and asked casually after realizing it was Naruto.

"Today I am going to eat Ichiraku Ramen. I talked to my mother for a long time before she agreed! What about you? Are you going to eat Ichiraku Ramen too?"

Hearing that Choji was generally more enthusiastic about eating, he stuffed potato chips into his mouth and said, "We have just completed the entrance exam, and our leading teacher said he would treat us to a big dinner."

"Entrance exam?" Naruto thought for a moment and said, "Casel College? Didn't it mean that Mr. Angers hasn't come back yet?"

"Principal? We are only entering the first grade. The mode is still the same as the previous Ninja School. After graduating from the Ninja School, we find a teacher to lead the team. It's just that in addition to doing tasks, we also need to learn some mixed-race combat knowledge."

"Really..." Naruto really doesn't know these things. Although he has been promoted to the second grade due to the previous incident in the Land of Waves, he hasn't had a class in Cassel Academy yet!

"That's it, let's go first."

Shikamaru waved his hand listlessly.

Watching them go away, Naruto continued walking in the direction of Ichiraku Ramen, but before walking a few steps, he saw another familiar person.

"Sasuke, I feel like we are very destined these days. I see you almost every day." In front of Naruto, Sasuke was walking in his direction. The two of them were getting closer and closer. Naruto smiled and said hello.

.

However, Sasuke just said "Yeah" calmly and then passed Naruto and continued to walk forward, as if he didn't want to talk to Naruto...

"You guy!"

After being treated like this twice, Naruto couldn't bear it anymore. He turned around and held Sasuke's shoulders, saying angrily, "Do you have any objections to me? I look like this every time you see me!"

Sasuke said expressionlessly, "Let go, I still have something to do."

However, his attitude made Naruto even more angry. He was about to raise his fist, but found an ANBU wearing a patterned mask suddenly appeared in front of him. He held Naruto's fist with one hand and said coldly, "Bo

Feng Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke is going to carry out a secret mission, and the fact that you have seen him here is confidential and must not be leaked."

"ANBU?" Naruto only knew about this organization after meeting the ANBU who used ice escape in the Land of Waves. Now when he saw it again, he knew that this was a group of ninjas who directly belonged to Naruto, so he could only put down his hands.

He was a little curious, but he also knew that there were some things he shouldn't know, so he could only sigh and said

"Okay, I know."

The ANBU nodded with satisfaction, and left with Sasuke using a teleportation technique.

"baffling……"

After the two of them disappeared for a while, Naruto expressed his evaluation.

Especially Sasuke...

What on earth is he doing?

I don't know why, but Naruto has endless curiosity in his heart, and he has a vague feeling that this time things may not be simple...
