Chapter 143: The Mangekyō Sharingan That Doesn't Belong to You, I'll Take It Back

Noticing that the crow carrying Shisui's other Mangekyō Sharingan had disappeared, Hagoromo Gengetsu's expression remained unchanged.

Until a leaf slowly fell between them, blocking their view of each other for a moment.

Hagoromo Gengetsu's hands turned into afterimages as he quickly formed seals and chanted:

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Uchiha Itachi, whose sealing speed was no slower than Hagoromo Gengetsu, followed suit.

In an instant, two massive fireballs shot out from their mouths, the intense heat distorting the surrounding air as they quickly collided.

Boom~~

The raging flames, squeezed by the collision, spread out ferociously in all directions.

Under the high temperature, the surrounding flowers, grass, and trees withered one by one, even before being touched by the flames, as their moisture was continuously evaporated.

Infused with chakra, the two great fireballs collided, neither giving an inch.

But soon enough.

The fire release technique from Hagoromo Gengetsu, who had deeper mastery over fire chakra, gradually overpowered Uchiha Itachi's.

Noticing this, Uchiha Itachi's eyes narrowed, and he ceased his futile effort.

Boom~

Uchiha Itachi's great fireball was finally dispersed.

Hagoromo Gengetsu's great fireball continued to surge forward.

Uchiha Itachi's figure flickered, narrowly avoiding the range of the fireball technique.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A series of shuriken flew out like an impenetrable net, leaving no chance to breathe.

Clang clang clang clang

Amidst the clashing of metal.

Uchiha Itachi drew a kunai with his right hand, his Mangekyō Sharingan rapidly rotating, intercepting every incoming shuriken without missing a beat. At the same time, the kunai in his hand pierced through the center holes of the shuriken, collecting them all.

Before the second wave of shuriken could be shot, Uchiha Itachi's ten fingers flipped, and the shuriken he had just collected were shot out again like a scattering flower.

Easily deflecting yet another wave of incoming shuriken.

Uchiha Itachi's hands once again quickly formed seals.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!"

Balls of flame spewed from his mouth, precisely enveloping the shuriken he had just shot out, spinning towards Hagoromo Gengetsu without losing momentum.

Seeing this, Hagoromo Gengetsu also drew a kunai, infused it with lightning chakra, extending a longer blade of lightning.

Facing the incoming Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, Hagoromo Gengetsu's lightning-infused kunai slashed, effortlessly dispersing the incoming shuriken and flames.

Uchiha Itachi, unperturbed, flicked his empty fingers, pulling ten transparent wires that had already been connected. The shuriken scattered by Hagoromo Gengetsu instantly moved, shooting towards him again from all directions.

Hagoromo Gengetsu, who was about to pursue, had to stop.

After eliminating all the traps around him, he looked up to see Uchiha Itachi charging towards him.

Slap!

A hand with dark purple nail polish, wearing a Suzaku ring on the ring finger, quickly grabbed at the wrist holding the lightning kunai.

Hagoromo Gengetsu stepped back with his right foot, retracting and extending the hand holding the lightning kunai, countering by stabbing towards Uchiha Itachi's right hand.

Uchiha Itachi turned his body just in time, allowing the kunai to brush past him, while his other hand reached out like an eagle, grabbing at Hagoromo Gengetsu's neck.

Seeing this, Hagoromo Gengetsu clenched his left hand into a fist and punched out.

Bang!

The sound of a fist meeting a palm echoed.

Taking advantage of this moment, Uchiha Itachi suddenly kneed, targeting an angle Hagoromo Gengetsu couldn't see with his single Mangekyō Sharingan, kicking the lightning kunai out of his hand.

After this, Uchiha Itachi didn't back down, continuously launching close-range attacks with his hands, feet, elbows, and knees.

Hagoromo Gengetsu, whose kunai had been kicked away, remained unfazed.

If the opponent wanted to fight, he would fight.

After a series of blows, the clash continued.

Hagoromo Gengetsu and Uchiha Itachi, moving faster and faster, collided at angles unpredictable to outsiders.

Boom boom boom~~~

One by one, large trees collapsed under the impact, and cracks and pits formed continuously wherever they went.

Slap! Slap!

Finally, as Hagoromo Gengetsu caught Uchiha Itachi's incoming hand, and Uchiha Itachi caught Hagoromo Gengetsu's punching hand, they paused for a moment.

After locking eyes.

In the next instant, the battle resumed.

Lightning reappeared in Hagoromo Gengetsu's hand, swiftly piercing through Uchiha Itachi in front of him.

Caw caw caw~~~

Dozens of crows emerged from Uchiha Itachi's disintegrating body.

At the same time, the real Uchiha Itachi appeared above the crow clone, flipping his hand to release three kunai infused with fierce wind chakra, shooting rapidly towards Hagoromo Gengetsu below.

"When did he summon the crow clone?"

Hagoromo Gengetsu quickly retreated, pondering as he moved.

The previous battle was intense, and Uchiha Itachi, who was always in his line of sight, shouldn't have formed any new seals.

But there was no time to think.

The numerous crows, instead of dispersing, flew towards him, completely blocking his vision.

Hagoromo Gengetsu raised his hand, a flash of lightning ready to strike them down.

Uchiha Itachi's figure silently appeared beside Hagoromo Gengetsu.

Boom!

Hagoromo Gengetsu was blasted back, crashing heavily into a nearby hillside.

Crack~ crack~

Spiderweb-like cracks spread from Hagoromo Gengetsu, extending through the hillside.

"Things... seem to have taken an unexpected turn."

Sensing something amiss, Hagoromo Gengetsu was about to break free from the hillside.

A fist suddenly struck his chest forcefully, while another hand grabbed his neck.

Uchiha Itachi appeared in front of Hagoromo Gengetsu again, calmly saying:

"The Mangekyō Sharingan that doesn't belong to you, I'll take it back."

With that, Uchiha Itachi's free right hand swiftly grabbed.

From within Hagoromo Gengetsu's mask, Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan was forcibly removed and placed into a container filled with nutrient solution.

"Next, it's your life."

Uchiha Itachi's grip on his neck tightened, ready to end it all.

At this moment, with his right eye a bloody hollow, Hagoromo Gengetsu suddenly smiled, raising his head to look at Uchiha Itachi, his expression unwavering as he said:

"You've gone to great lengths to ruin the Tsukuyomi, the Mangekyō Sharingan's ability."

Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi paused.
