"As you can see."
Uchiha Itachi's expression was indifferent.
At this moment, Uchiha Itachi seemed to have transformed into another person, standing on top of the Three-tails, coldly surveying the Uchiha Clan Land amidst the ruins, and said, "I killed all the Uchiha to test the power I have gained."
"Huh?"
Akihara Kagura looked at Uchiha Itachi, a smile unexpectedly curling at the corner of her mouth: "You've stolen what I wanted to do again, I've long wanted to kill you Uchiha..."
"However..."
"You killed so many people..."
"Did you forget there are some who slipped through the net?"
"What?"
Uchiha Itachi furrowed his brows.
The massacre night actually did not go very smoothly, because when he was killing, he noticed some households had only a robust man left, while old folks and children were hiding.
He had just manipulated the Three-tails to use the Tailed Beast Ball, which should have killed everyone hiding, right? After all, the Uchiha Clan Land is just this big...
Could Akihara Kagura have sensed living people?
Just as Uchiha Itachi was pondering, Akihara Kagura's gaze fell on him: "I'm talking about you as the one who slipped through the net, Uchiha Itachi..."
With those words.
Akihara Kagura manipulated the wooden man to charge forward!
Uchiha Itachi manipulated the Three-tails under him to confront it, and then could only watch as the Three-tails was pinned to the ground and beaten by the wooden man!
"..."
Uchiha Itachi felt the inadequacy of the Tailed Beast for the first time.
If the Tailed Beasts only had this level of power, even if the Uchiha Clan revolted to control a Tailed Beast, it would still only be under Akihara Kagura's control!
On a distant high platform.
Uchiha Obito was observing the battle.
Zetsu's figure slowly emerged, accompanying Uchiha Obito.
Black Zetsu looked at the scene, seemingly having anticipated this: "The power of the Three-tails still can't be compared to the Nine-tails, it's unlikely to defeat Kagura's Woodman Jutsu unless Uchiha Itachi uses Susanoo to enhance the Three-tails..."
"Susanoo Armored Three-tails!"
A red armor appeared on the Three-tails!
Uchiha Itachi had no time to think more; he could only quickly manipulate his Susanoo to cover the Three-tails, barely providing a layer of scale-like armor!
The power of the Three-tails suddenly changed!
This Three-tails' shell turned into armor with a shield-like pattern, which would counterattack every time the wooden man punched down!
There's no denying it...
Uchiha Itachi's Susanoo fits well with the Three-tails.
Because Uchiha Itachi's Susanoo and the Three-tails both specialize in defense, the Three-tails is covered with spikes, Uchiha Itachi's Susanoo has a Yata no Kagami, which can reflect some physical attacks!
Akihara Kagura could clearly feel the tremors from the power bouncing back on the wooden man's fist, with each punch rebounding the same force onto the wooden man!
"You really resemble this turtle..."
Akihara Kagura's palm slowly closed!
"Yasaka Magatama!"
Uchiha Itachi did not wait for Akihara Kagura's next move. Upon securing a defensive advantage, he immediately initiated a counterattack, as a bright light suddenly appeared within the mouth of the Three-tails!
This bright light is mixed with the Three-tails' Chakra, a fusion of Susanoo's Yasaka Magatama and Tailed Beast Ball Chakra unleashed together!
This is a power even stronger than the Tailed Beast Ball!
The wooden man spread its hand, grasped the Yasaka Magatama, and pressed it onto the Three-tails, triggering a violent explosion!
The light shimmered like the sun!
"Your hand broke?"
Akihara Kagura frowned, looking at the shield-like pattern armor on the Three-tail's body: "Is your defense that strong?"
"..."
Uchiha Itachi immediately sensed an opportunity and manipulated the Armored Three-tails to pounce on the wooden man, biting the wooden man's fractured arm, almost as if it would tear the wooden man apart!
"Going to bite off the wooden man's hand?"
Akihara Kagura's palm slowly formed a seal, Natural Energy instantly surged into his body, instantly entering Sage Mode state!
"Sage Art: True Thousand Hands!"
Tree roots instantly spread under the wooden man's feet!
A massive Guanyin Wooden Statue appeared beneath the wooden man, making the otherwise enormous wooden man appear insignificant, merely sitting on the head of the Guanyin Wooden Statue!
Countless massive arms stretched out behind the Guanyin Wooden Statue!
"That's..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen led the Dark Department here and upon witnessing this scene, his pupils involuntarily contracted: "Is that the True Thousand Hands recorded on the scroll..."
Are you kidding!
The Guanyin Wooden Statue of True Thousand Hands is larger than any statue built by Konoha; even the Armored Three-tails manipulated by Uchiha Itachi looks like a toy!
The Ninja's size compared to the Tailed Beast's size is like a toy, yet the Tailed Beast's size compared to the Guanyin Wooden Statue of True Thousand Hands is like a toy!
Frankly speaking...
Sarutobi Hiruzen would never doubt that if the True Thousand Hands collapsed, it would be enough to devastate Konoha, not to mention this jutsu has not unleashed its power yet!
This earth-shattering level jutsu is why it's recorded on the scroll as a jutsu to counter the Nine-tails; the Nine-tails may also possess enough power to destroy Konoha, but its scale seems a bit incomparable to True Thousand Hands.
