BOOOOOOOOM!
Hiroshi Uchiha was blasted violently through the air, his body flying like a projectile before crashing heavily into a massive boulder behind him.
KRAAAAAASH!
Dust exploded everywhere as deep cracks spread across the rock from the brutal impact.
"HAHAHAHAHA! You're still way too weak, little brat!"
Leon shouted with an excited, mocking laugh while standing confidently with one hand on his waist, a wide grin stretched across his face.
At the same moment, he casually avoided a sword thrust coming straight at him from behind with one smooth sidestep, then calmly looked toward Ishin Senju in front of him.
"You're a little better than that Uchiha over there."
He pointed his thumb toward the shattered Hiroshi behind him before continuing in a disappointed tone,
"But even then, you're still far too weak to get me excited."
Then suddenly, Leon drove his knee directly into Ishin Senju's stomach with overwhelming force.
"HUUUUGHH!"
A muffled cry of pain escaped Ishin's mouth as the air was violently forced out of his lungs. His body instantly dropped to his knees as he struggled to breathe, gasping heavily in agony. But before he could even recover his balance
BOOOOOOOOM!
Leon kicked him again with terrifying force and sent him flying through the air at incredible speed before Ishin finally crashed and rolled across the ground.
"Come on, you two weak little kids! Is that really all the strength you've got?!"
Leon shouted with deliberate mockery and provocation, then vanished instantly with explosive speed before appearing directly above Ishin Senju.
"You really are pathetic, weakling."
He looked down at him with open disdain before raising his leg high into the air, preparing to crush him into the ground. But just before the kick landed, his foot suddenly slammed into something solid.
A thick wooden trunk burst out from nowhere and grew upward at insane speed, forming a shield around Ishin.
"HAHAHAHAHA! Finally! You finally managed to awaken it!"
Leon instantly jumped forward, narrowly dodging the gigantic Susanoo blade that came crashing down from behind him. At the same time, Ishin quickly stood back up, regained his balance, and prepared himself for battle once more.
"Yes! YES! That's exactly how it should be!"
Leon shouted joyfully, his eyes shining with excitement and a massive grin spread across his face before he yelled even louder,
"Show me your real strength!"
"HOOOOOAAAAAAAH!"
Hiroshi Uchiha roared with overwhelming fury while completely enveloped inside a gigantic skeletal form, his Mangekyō Sharingan spinning wildly.
At the same moment, countless wooden pillars suddenly erupted beneath Ishin's feet and rushed toward Leon from every direction at incredible speed.
A combined attack. Perfect coordination. Something that had never happened before between the two enemy clans, and perhaps would never happen again.
The power of the Susanoo from one side, and Mokuton from the other.
Or rather the power of Indra and the power of Ashura fighting together in the same battle against a common enemy.
"Come on! Come on! Show me your true determination!"
Leon shouted excitedly as he leapt between the wooden pillars and dodged the giant blades, clearly enjoying every second of the fight.
In truth, after the previous battle where both the Uchiha Patriarch and the Senju Patriarch had died by his hand a result Leon had intentionally planned from the beginning his goal had been to push Hiroshi and Ishin to their limits, to force their growth and awaken their full potential.
Afterward, Leon led the Lone Wolves Squad and settled them inside a large military base they built near the territories of both clans. Then, after some time had passed, Leon sent a direct challenge to the two of them, demanding a personal battle against him. Otherwise, he would personally lead his forces and invade the two weakened clans, destroying them completely without mercy.
That was what forced them to accept.
As for Ishin Senju, he agreed because he wanted to spare his clan from another full-scale war, especially during such a difficult period. The strength of the Senju Clan had suffered massive losses during the last bloody battle. Many of their strongest warriors had died fighting against the insane Lone Wolves Squad, so accepting a personal challenge was far better than facing another devastating war.
As for Hiroshi Uchiha, the reason he accepted so eagerly was much simpler he wanted revenge.
And more than anything else, he desperately wanted to reclaim his father's stolen eyes from the enemy who had killed him and taken them away.
That was why both of them now stood together in this dangerous battle against Leon, while Leon himself carefully pushed them closer and closer toward the edge without actually killing them. He was pressuring them, forcing them to evolve and grow stronger.
That was his true objective and at the same tim it was also part of his personal enjoyment.
