Chapter 217: [Sponsored]: Itachi's Illusion has no effect

[This Chapter Is Sponsored by Jabari Brown! Everyone, please thank him in the comment!]

Hoshigaki Kisame is a very daring man.

His goal has always been the strongest combat power in Konoha, Akihara Kagura. Any powerful ninja in the ninja world would certainly set their sights on Akihara Kagura.

"Mr. Asuma, Miss Kurenai."

Uchiha Itachi calmly watched Sarutobi Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi: "Please clear the way, I do not wish to kill you here..."

"That doesn't sound like something you would say!"

Sarutobi Asuma smiled at the corner of his mouth, waving his chakra blades, ready to engage them: "Creating such a serious incident in the village, almost causing a new Tailed Beast chaos, it's better I kill you here!"

"Is that so?"

Hoshigaki Kisame was the first to move, his Samehada slashing through the air, cutting towards Sarutobi Asuma's shoulder!

The bandages wrapped around Samehada instantly burst, its sharp barbs piercing Sarutobi Asuma's shoulder, bringing up a spray of blood!

However, the next second!

Vines sprouted from the ground, growing into a large tree that wrapped around Hoshigaki Kisame's body, not sparing even Uchiha Itachi nearby!

"Is this... Wood Release?"

Hoshigaki Kisame watched the scene somewhat surprised.

"No."

Uchiha Itachi let the vines wrap around his body, his expression unmoved as he looked up: "It's just an illusion... such a level of illusion has no effect on me."

In an instant!

The illusion was dispelled by Uchiha Itachi!

Even Kurenai Yuhi was countered by her own illusion!

Uchiha Itachi's sleeve flashed with a sharp kunai, rushing towards Kurenai Yuhi, breaking through her defenses with two moves, kicking her into the river!

Sarutobi Asuma was shocked!

Yet, Hoshigaki Kisame also suddenly exerted force, swinging his Samehada making Sarutobi Asuma retreat step by step, catching him off guard!

Fortunately!

Hatake Kakashi arrived in time.

Hatake Kakashi released a shadow clone to quickly rescue Sarutobi Asuma, his body leaping into the river, standing in front of Kurenai Yuhi, facing Uchiha Itachi!

"Uchiha Itachi."

Hatake Kakashi's hand rested in his pocket, looking at his former subordinate: "Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Konoha?"

"Looking for something."

Uchiha Itachi watched Hatake Kakashi calmly, pondering his purpose, and coldly continued: "By the way, looking for someone to test my power anew."

"Akihara Kagura?"

"Who else is more suitable than the strongest combat power of Konoha?"

Hoshigaki Kisame picked up his Samehada, leaping beside Uchiha Itachi: "I thought Mr. Itachi would disagree with my opinion!"

"Before leaving Konoha, I was defeated by him."

Uchiha Itachi's expression remained calm, as if speaking from his heart: "Killing my former opponent to test the power I have cultivated over the years is only natural..."

"Are you... serious?"

Hatake Kakashi's pupils subtly shifted.

Could it be that Uchiha Itachi really gained new power outside? Otherwise, why would he dare to challenge Akihara Kagura with confidence, having been defeated by Kagura three times, each without any resistance...

"Interesting."

A voice drifted down from the sky.

Everyone involuntarily looked up!

"He's actually flying..."

Even though Sarutobi Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi were ninjas of Konoha, they couldn't help but be astonished at Akihara Kagura's ability to fly!

"You..."

Hatake Kakashi was somewhat prepared.

This flying ability stemmed from the Third Tsuchikage of Rock Village's Super-Lightweight Rock Technique, which Hatake Kakashi had seen before.

"Is this the strongest combat power of Konoha?"

Hoshigaki Kisame's eyes twitched slightly, but his hands quickly formed seals, grinning: "Come down first! Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!"

A surge of water rose to the sky, flying towards Akihara Kagura, transforming into a giant shark water bullet, biting at Akihara Kagura!

"Fire Release: Great Fire Technique."

Akihara Kagura released a ball of fire, and even though it was just a C-rank Fire Release, it instantly enveloped and melted the entire shark water bullet into steam!

Akihara Kagura's body slowly descended, standing beside Hatake Kakashi, lightly waving his hand: "You go on and continue patrolling elsewhere, leave them to me!"

"Kagura..."

Hatake Kakashi frowned slightly, wanting to advise a word: "Don't be careless, Itachi has not been..."

"First, take Jonin Asuma for treatment!"

"Be careful."

Hatake Kakashi could only offer a reminder, immediately taking Sarutobi Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi away from there, still somewhat uneasy.

In the middle of the river.

Only three people remained standing on the water surface.

Hoshigaki Kisame's lips twitched, waving his Samehada first charging towards Akihara Kagura: "Your chakra, Samehada likes it very much!"

With Hoshigaki Kisame's action, the bandages wrapped around Samehada all burst apart, revealing the true face of the Samehada, a shark's mouth full of sharp teeth biting towards Akihara Kagura!

"Lava Release: Vacuum Flame Blade!"

A kunai appeared in Akihara Kagura's hands, he exhaled a breath of chakra onto the kunai, a ninjato composed of Lava Release chakra appeared in his hands!

This was a composite ninjutsu of Wind Release: Vacuum Blade and Lava Release chakra!

Akihara Kagura swung his ninjato continuously splattering magma at the Samehada, the intense heat of the magma making Hoshigaki Kisame's Samehada emit a painful shriek!

Even with the ability to devour chakra, Samehada could hardly bear the high temperature of the magma, becoming frightened and trying to shrink back!

"Is Samehada scared too?"

Hoshigaki Kisame pressed his hand on his ninjato, calming down the Samehada, his body retreating a few steps, trying to use ninjutsu to compete with Akihara Kagura!

"Kisame."

Uchiha Itachi stopped Hoshigaki Kisame.

"Mr. Itachi?"

"You are not his match."

Uchiha Itachi shook his head, his expression becoming very serious and solemn, showing none of his earlier pride: "Let me do it... Tsukuyomi!"

The next moment!

Uchiha Itachi stared directly at Akihara Kagura, his Sharingan suddenly transforming into a Mangeky? Sharingan, and the Tsukuyomi illusion instantly activated!

As if unconcerned, Akihara Kagura fell straight into the Tsukuyomi illusion, his spirit also appearing in Uchiha Itachi's Tsukuyomi illusion world!

Under the blood moon.

In the black and white world of Tsukuyomi.

After Uchiha Itachi's spirit appeared in this world, he subconsciously felt a persistent pain because he felt his brain was somewhat overwhelmed.

A deafening voice entered Uchiha Itachi's ears.

"What..."

Uchiha Itachi furrowed his brows, following the source of the voice, raising his head to see a figure as tall as a mountain standing in the Tsukuyomi world!

"This is..."

Uchiha Itachi's pupils rapidly constricted!

What kind of joke is this!

This giant-like Akihara Kagura...

Is this the spiritual power of Akihara Kagura?

Is this level of spiritual power really controllable by the Tsukuyomi illusion?

Uchiha Itachi finally realized why he felt his brain was overwhelmed, because Akihara Kagura's spiritual power was too terrifying, allowing Akihara Kagura to enter the Tsukuyomi world, paying a price that even he found painful in terms of spiritual power and visual prowess!

If one wanted to control time on Akihara Kagura's body in the Tsukuyomi world, it might even cause his Mangeky? Sharingan to go completely blind...

This cannot be done...

Uchiha Itachi immediately made a clear judgment.

Now, while it was just him and Akihara Kagura, was the time to properly negotiate, he wanted to make sure that Uchiha Sasuke would not have any problems.

"Really interesting."

Akihara Kagura extended his palm, as if grabbing an ant, picking up Uchiha Itachi's body, placing him in front of himself: "Uchiha Itachi, what is the purpose of your infiltration into Konoha again? Did the Akatsuki organization give you orders?"

"No."

Uchiha Itachi shook his head, speaking softly: "I heard there was a riot in Konoha, just wanted to come to Konoha... to confirm Sasuke's safety."

"Don't worry."

Akihara Kagura chuckled lightly, indifferently responding with a phrase: "Before you brothers turned on each other, I had no interest in laying a hand on him..."

"That's for the best."

Uchiha Itachi's mood relaxed, although his spirit will manifested in the Tsukuyomi world was somewhat breaking apart, he nevertheless continued to speak: "I have already taught Orochimaru a lesson..."

"I know."

Akihara Kagura nodded in satisfaction, continuing: "You did well in that regard, so I did not kill your brother..."

After Uchiha Itachi made his request, he straightforwardly began to betray information about the Akatsuki organization, hoping to use it to guarantee more security for Sasuke: "In the Akatsuki organization, there are quite a few people hostile to your existence, Sasori of the Red Sand, Deidara, and Kakuzu are all very dissatisfied with you, always wanting to kill you..."

"They are very ambitious."

Akihara Kagura praised with a phrase.

"..."

Uchiha Itachi was somewhat at a loss for words.

On this point, Deidara and Kakuzu were indeed very ambitious.

Uchiha Itachi thought for a while, continuing to betray information about the Akatsuki organization: "The leader of the Akatsuki, Pain, also once was defeated by you, he also holds great hostility towards you..."

"Oh, I see."

Akihara Kagura was indifferent.

Uchiha Itachi did not know his relationship with the leader of the Akatsuki, this information was of no value to him.

Uchiha Itachi immediately realized that Akihara Kagura was not interested in the information about the Akatsuki organization. Was this guy's strength already strong enough to ignore an enemy of Pain's level?

"Let's do this."

Akihara Kagura seemed to clearly understand Uchiha Itachi's thoughts, chuckling as he spoke: "Find an opportunity, help me kill Uchiha Obito, and I will guarantee Uchiha Sasuke's safety, even if you die, I will not go kill him..."

After saying that, Akihara Kagura continued to add: "Don't worry, Sasuke is Captain Kakashi's student, I also want to give Captain Kakashi face, as long as you can help me take care of Uchiha Obito, also sparing Captain Kakashi the sadness of his comrade's betrayal..."

"Can do."

Uchiha Itachi's expression moved.

Regarding the matter of betraying Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Itachi had no psychological pressure, having even killed his own clan to ensure that Uchiha Sasuke could survive, let alone just a traitorous Uchiha Obito!

"Uchiha Obito's abilities are very peculiar."

Uchiha Itachi immediately began to plan their deal, continuing: "I will find a way, as soon as possible, to probe Uchiha Obito's Mangeky? Sharingan abilities..."

"I'll wait for your news."

Akihara Kagura nodded straightforwardly.

Because his spiritual power appeared too vast in the Tsukuyomi world, this nod seemed somewhat slow to Uchiha Itachi.

Actually, Uchiha Itachi always wanted to cover his ears, because Akihara Kagura's physique was too large, making his voice somewhat deafening to Uchiha Itachi.

This kind of experience...

If possible, they were better off communicating in reality.

However...

Uchiha Itachi also obtained information.

That is, illusions are ineffective against Akihara Kagura, at least until his visual prowess and spiritual power are strong enough, ordinary illusions might not affect Akihara Kagura.

Perhaps...

This is why Uchiha Madara, the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, and the First Hokage Hashirama, never used illusions when they fought?

"Cancel your illusion..."

Akihara Kagura looked at Uchiha Itachi, whose expression was gradually becoming pained, and asked in a low voice: "If you continue to stay here, perhaps your spirit might collapse, right?"

"..."

Busted!

Uchiha Itachi did not speak, only quickly dispelling his own Tsukuyomi illusion!

In the real world.

Still that turbulent Naka River.

Hoshigaki Kisame, standing by the side, knew nothing of what had occurred in the Tsukuyomi world, everything that had happened was just in an instant.

Hoshigaki Kisame only saw that after Uchiha Itachi used the illusion on Akihara Kagura, Akihara Kagura still stood in place without moving, seemingly unconcerned about the illusion, whereas the user of the illusion, Uchiha Itachi, covered his eyes, his face in pain as he collapsed!

"Mr. Itachi!"

Hoshigaki Kisame quickly helped Uchiha Itachi up.

"Let's go..."

Uchiha Itachi struggled to maintain his will, trying to stand up, only the mental pain made his brain feel like it was splitting!

In the distance.

Hatake Kakashi was still secretly observing the scene.

Because Hatake Kakashi was still worried about Akihara Kagura being careless and falling into a trap, letting Kurenai Yuhi take Sarutobi Asuma away, leaving himself to observe the situation.

After all, who knew what abilities Uchiha Itachi had obtained in the ninja world after leaving Konoha for four years and what power he would unleash when he sought revenge, the result was only using an illusion on Akihara Kagura, and the caster himself collapsed?

"..."

Hatake Kakashi felt somewhat unable to understand, unconsciously starting to ponder: "Is this... what returning for revenge after years of training looks like?"
