Sasuke had indeed grown, and this was proven by the blood dripping down Itachi Uchiha's arm.
Although they weren't samurai, everyone present knew about the swordsmanship technique of Iai. But they had never seen such a sharp and gorgeous Iai.
Derived from the Thunder Breathing First Form: Thunderclap and Flash, Sasuke had added Lightning Release Sage Technique and Uchiha-style swordsmanship, and that was how this style of Sword Thunder was formed.
Although Sasuke often failed to show off, it was undeniable that he was definitely a genius. At least being able to integrate his abilities so quickly and develop such an amazing move could prove it.
Among them, Kakashi's expression was the most complicated. He couldn't help but feel that Sasuke was more like his teacher.
Sasuke shook the knife to throw away the blood on it, and his expression was dull, not knowing what he was thinking.
Drake couldn't help but shake his head. As the first person to see Sasuke's move, he knew that Sasuke could have directly killed Itachi Uchiha just now.
But in the end, he still hesitated. But Drake didn't care at all whether Itachi Uchiha lived or died. That was Sasuke's own choice.
Itachi Uchiha coughed. Not only did blood appear at the corner of his mouth, but even more blood was scattered from the wound on his chest.
"Itachi-san!"
Hoshigaki Kisame appeared next to Itachi with the Body Flicker Technique, but was stopped by Itachi reaching out.
Sasuke's mercy had already made Itachi understand that Sasuke must have learned some of the truth. Having seen Sasuke grow to this point, he could have died in Sasuke's hands with peace of mind.
But the situation was completely different now. Before confirming that everything would develop as he had expected, he couldn't die here.
Itachi looked at Sasuke and said, "Although I still have a lot to say, this time can only end here! Forgive me, Sasuke, next time!"
Sasuke, who was still struggling, was angered by the familiar words, and said coldly, "What I hate the most is this sentence! Do you think I'm still a child who can only look at your back?"
Saying this, Sasuke was about to take action again, but Drake suddenly appeared next to him and directly pulled him back.
Sasuke looked at Drake in confusion. Drake released his finger and pointed to the place where he had just been and said, "A troublemaker is coming!"
Sasuke looked in the direction Drake was pointing, and sure enough, the air there began to show a spiral distortion.
Then a man wearing a tiger-striped one-eyed mask appeared in that position.
With this appearance and this way of appearing, the person who came was naturally Obito Uchiha, the second layer of the villain mille-feuille in the ninja world.
Itachi Uchiha said, "Madara, have you been following us all along?"
Obito didn't seem to care about Itachi directly selling a wave of information, and replied, "Oh, I knew you were in trouble here, so I came here to help!"
"Madara?"
For some reason, Kakashi always felt that this person was familiar, so he spoke.
In Obito's mask, the eye turned into three tomoe, proving his identity as a member of the Uchiha clan.
"That's right, I am Madara Uchiha! The ninjas of Konoha shouldn't have forgotten my name by now, right?"
Madara Uchiha, a name that the entire ninja world wouldn't forget easily.
When mentioning the legend of the God of Shinobi, the First Hokage Hashirama Senju, it was inevitable to mention his only friend and opponent - the Shura of the ninja world, Madara Uchiha.
The statues in the Valley of the End had already let everyone know that he was a man who had once influenced the history of the entire ninja world.
Now someone stood up and claimed to be Madara Uchiha. Although the first thought was suspicion, everyone present couldn't help but have a sense of dread in their hearts.
Drake really didn't understand what the point was of Obito calling himself Madara Uchiha. It seemed that no one had really believed that he was that Shura of the ninja world from beginning to end.
After all, Obito really didn't have the power to suppress everything like Madara. Just showing a Sharingan also didn't prove anything.
It could only be said that he was a chuunibyou after all, and with a severe mental illness, it was really impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Sasuke was actually the person present who couldn't understand the deterrent power of the name Madara the most.
Because of a certain Second Hokage's personal prejudice and various considerations, the name Madara Uchiha was rarely mentioned in Konoha.
What Sasuke knew was that this former head of the Uchiha clan had lost to the First Hokage, so he had agreed to the First Hokage's invitation and formed Konoha together.
However, Madara Uchiha later defected from the village, causing a lot of damage to Konoha. Finally, in the Valley of the End, the First Hokage personally killed his friend.
This was also the understanding of most people in the ninja world after the change of era.
After all, the current ninjas couldn't imagine what it was like for a powerhouse whose battle could change the terrain.
However, the reason why Sasuke wasn't frightened was partly because of this, and another part was because of his Uchiha family's ancestral pride.
Another part of the reason was that he had seen people who were more powerful than he could imagine.
Having been with Drake for so long, Sasuke had long learned how to view the strong!
Just as Obito Uchiha was thinking that he had intimidated everyone, Drake suddenly said, "So what are you going to do, Sasuke? If you want to end everything here, this clown who calls himself Madara Uchiha can't take anyone away.
And he also has a share of your hatred, because he is also one of the executioners who slaughtered the Uchiha clan."
Sasuke was still hesitating, but when he heard Drake's words, the tomoe in his eyes looking at Obito began to deform.
Sasuke would still hesitate when facing Itachi, but what was Obito?
Obito looked at Drake and said, "To even know about this, it seems that you're not an ordinary nobody.
But to be so arrogant in front of me, Madara Uchiha, you're really a foolish guy."
Drake picked his ear with his little finger and said, "Alright, you don't have to emphasize that you're Madara Uchiha.
Although you've seen Madara Uchiha, if you've seen his full power, you'd know that you can't imitate that man's aura at all. First of all, he wouldn't hide behind that mask."
Although there was a mask to block it, the gaze that came out of the hole expressed Obito's unhappy mood.
"You're courting death!"
Obito hated Drake's attitude, but before him, someone had taken action first.
Sasuke appeared in front of Obito in a flash of lightning, and the ninja sword in his hand slashed over without hesitation.
Through the excellent dynamic vision brought by the Sharingan, Sasuke could see the blade approaching Obito's body little by little.
But then he found that the blade didn't have any feeling of hitting anything after touching Obito. There were no wounds or bloodstains after the blade passed, as if Obito's body had become illusory.
Sasuke was sure that he hadn't been hit by any genjutsu. Not understanding what was going on, he chose to distance himself.
Looking at Sasuke, who had flashed away, Obito had the same idea as Kakashi. And he felt it even more deeply.
After all, twelve years ago, he had started the Nine-Tails attack. He had originally thought that he could directly defeat Konoha, but he was taught a lesson by his teacher.
Drake's eyes narrowed. Obito could swagger around with the name Madara for so long because of his Mangekyō Sharingan's dōjutsu - Kamui.
Seeing the death of his beloved Rin had made Obito want to escape this cruel world, and that was how the dōjutsu Kamui was born.
This was a rare space-time technique. The dōjutsu created a huge barren space, allowing Obito to teleport foreign objects and himself into it at any time.
And by teleporting his body into it, he could create the effect of his body becoming illusory like just now.
In fact, Kakashi's left eye had also evolved the same ability, but he hadn't been able to develop it himself yet.
And although the dōjutsu of the two eyes were both Kamui, there were some differences.
Obito's right eye could teleport nearby things and himself into the Kamui space, but the duration had a limit of five minutes.
And if he didn't touch it himself, the target could resist the teleportation.
And Kakashi's left eye, in addition to being able to teleport himself into the Kamui space, could also teleport the things he saw entirely or partially into the Kamui space from a distance, achieving the effect of tearing the target apart.
A large number of Hashirama cells in his body allowed Obito to squander his dōjutsu power even without the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. The Kamui plus the Uchiha clan's forbidden technique Izanagi made Obito only a little worse than Orochimaru in terms of life-saving abilities.
That was why Drake hated this type of opponent with mechanisms.
