"Hahaha, you little brat, you're really talking big. You don't seem to take Chunin seriously, huh? Fine,"
"I'll play with you for a while, so Naraku can see my strength. Don't worry, kid, I won't hurt you."
Ebisu pushed up his sunglasses and sneered twice. She hadn't even said anything yet, so why was he trying to be a hero?
"Itachi-kun, what are you doing here? Let's go back, don't..."
Naraku didn't mind them fighting, but her character couldn't break. She was a sweet girl now and wouldn't help.
"Naraku, don't worry, I'll protect you no matter what happens."
Itachi finished speaking and instantly formed hand seals:
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
(Oh? This little kid can already use C-rank ninjutsu so skillfully? Looks like he's got some talent!)
Probably because he's been single for so long, Ebisu's hand seals were also very fast.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
Two enormous fireballs collided, erupting in a huge blaze. Luckily, the surroundings were spacious enough, or else the houses would have been set on fire.
Naraku stood there, dumbfounded. Does Itachi Uchiha really like using the Great Fireball Technique so much? When they practiced together, he'd always used Shuriken to just graze him.
Over the past few days, his original clothes had almost been completely ruined by Itachi. Naraku's spending on clothes was almost eating into his living expenses.
Could it be... this kid was doing it on purpose?
Damn it, and he was even holding back during practice?
It's no wonder Naraku Uchiha suspected Itachi of holding back; the guy did have a history of it.
In the original story, Itachi Uchiha, not long after joining the Akatsuki, could秒杀Orochimaru.
When they went to Konoha to capture Naruto, he claimed that he and Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't beat Jiraiya. Later, it got even more ridiculous; Itachi, who could activate the Mangekyo Sharingan and Susanoo, ultimately lost to Sasuke with his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Thinking about it this way, it was necessary to observe this battle. As the boss of my main storyline, let me see what level you're really at, Itachi Uchiha.
The flames of the Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique dissipated, and Itachi Uchiha's figure instantly emerged from the smoke.
Ebisu's eyes narrowed. This kid is fast. No wonder he dared to challenge me; he actually has some skill.
But that's it. This kid might be able to handle a regular Chunin, but it's a pity he ran into me.
Facing Itachi's rapid kick, Ebisu swiftly blocked. Then, he quickly countered with his left foot. Itachi didn't even have time to react and was kicked flying.
Naraku didn't speak from the side. Ebisu's level was clearly stronger than the average Chunin, but Itachi wasn't about to be defeated so easily.
Sure enough, the Itachi that had been kicked away turned into a puff of white smoke and dissipated.
"Shadow Clone Technique? Are you kidding me? A six or seven-year-old kid can already skillfully use a B-rank ninjutsu?"
Ebisu was shocked and no longer dared to underestimate Itachi. This wasn't the level of a child; there were plenty of Chunin who couldn't even handle the Shadow Clone Technique.
"Behind me?"
Ebisu instantly turned around and indeed saw Itachi, who was almost less than half a meter away.
"You've got some good ideas for your age, but it's still too naive to think you can beat me with just these little tricks!"
Ebisu was indeed a ninja with a solid foundation. Even with this hasty response, he remained flawless. After a few rounds, he pinned Itachi to the ground.
"Haha, kid, you're still too green to fight me. Surrender obediently, or...what?"
Ebisu was about to put on a show of superiority when the Itachi Uchiha he had captured suddenly turned into a flock of crows that soared into the sky.
Ebisu stared at the red sky, stunned for a moment.
What's going on? Did I fall for a Genjutsu? When did this happen?
Ebisu quickly formed the Tiger hand seal:
"Genjutsu, dispel."
It was fortunate that Itachi's Genjutsu skills were still quite basic at the moment. If it were even two years later, things might have been different.
As Ebisu's voice faded, the crows in the sky gradually transformed. They weren't crows at all; they were all Shuriken that Itachi had thrown.
"Clang, clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out as the Shuriken collided, suddenly altering their flight paths.
Then, the six Shuriken flew towards Ebisu from six different directions.
"Has he completely blocked off all my escape routes? It's a good thing I realized this quickly. If I'd been a second slower, I might have been done for."
"And what's going on? How did I unknowingly fall completely into this kid's attack rhythm? No, I have to make a change!"
Ebisu instantly surged forward. This was the weakest point in the Shuriken blockade; he only needed to accurately deflect one Shuriken in this direction...
"Clink."
Ebisu quickly threw a Kunai, which precisely knocked away that Shuriken.
"Did it work?"
But just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Ebisu. It was none other than Itachi Uchiha.
The moment Itachi appeared, he kicked toward Ebisu. Ebisu couldn't avoid it; shuriken were everywhere. He could only use his arms to block.
Damn it, he just happened to appear here? In other words, all of this was within this kid's calculations? Impossible, this must be a coincidence. How could a child possibly calculate to this extent?
Ebisu was shocked at this moment. He could clearly feel that his strength was definitely superior to this kid's, but why was this battle so stifling?
He was completely led by the nose!
Just as Ebisu was shocked, Itachi's flying kick arrived. Although Ebisu successfully blocked it, he was still kicked back a step.
"Kid, your good luck is about to…"
Ebisu hadn't finished speaking when he felt a sharp kunai pressed firmly against his lower back.
"You better not make any sudden moves. I think that Great Fireball Technique just now will bring the Konoha Military Police Force here soon. You can tell them whatever you want then."
Itachi Uchiha's voice was young and cold behind him.
After saying this, the Itachi who had kicked Ebisu back turned into several crows and flew away. It turned out to be a Crow Clone Technique.
I won't let you hurt Naraku.
Itachi didn't say this out loud.
Ebisu on the other hand was even more shocked. Just what kind of monster was he fighting? From the very beginning with the Great Fireball Technique, every single move this child made had a strong purpose.
Step by step, he had pushed his opponent, who was stronger than him, into a dead end.
"What's your name?"
Ebisu couldn't help but ask.
"Uchiha, Itachi."
