I rely on myself

Chapter 728: Premonition of Change

"Sand Desert Wave."

Looking at Sasuke's figure standing on the high wall, Gaara performed ninjutsu without any hesitation.

A large amount of sand began to wrap around him, forming a huge sphere, and Gaara himself was naturally completely wrapped in it.

It is natural for Gaara to do this. After all, Sasuke has proved with his own strength that the Sand Shield alone cannot completely block his attacks. Although there is also the defense of the Sand Armor, the Sand Armor is far inferior to the Sand Shield in terms of defense and consumption. That's why Gaara used the defensive ninjutsu of Sand Wave.

However, while Sand Beach's defense is powerful, it also has the disadvantage of losing sight and being unable to observe the situation outside. For this reason, Gaara used a secret technique called the "Third Eye".

By creating an eye out of sand and connecting its own optic nerve, it can regain its sight.

Looking at the huge sand ball that completely wrapped Gaara, Sasuke did not rush forward rashly, but tried it out first.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"

He quickly formed seals with his hands, and then continuously spit out fire bombs from Sasuke's mouth, bombarding the sand ball below. The fire bombs exploded immediately when they touched the sand ball. The shocking explosion impact and high temperature continued to attack the sand ball, but the result was not ideal.

As the fireworks from the explosion dissipated, the sand ball was revealed. Apart from some sand on the surface that had fallen off due to the close-range explosion, the entire sand ball was still in quite good condition. Even the fallen sand was beginning to gradually fill back up.

It was back to normal in a short while and Sasuke's attacks had no effect at all.

Watching this scene, Sasuke had a rough estimate of the defensive power of this sand ball in his mind, and realized that almost none of the ninjutsu he knew could break this defense. But it happened that during the special training, Kakashi taught him a killer ninjutsu, which was just right for the current situation.

"I originally planned to hide it for a while as a trump card, but under the circumstances, I have no choice but to use it directly."

Having said that, Sasuke had already made a decision in his mind, and his face showed an extremely serious look. He squatted slightly and formed seals with his hands again.

Unlike before, this time there were only a few seals, only five, so Sasuke finished them quickly. Then he stretched out his right hand into a claw, and instantly high-density lightning chakra took shape on his right hand, radiating dense lightning that intertwined and made a sound like the calls of a thousand birds. This is also the origin of the name of this technique, Chidori!

This lightning ninjutsu is of Grade A, developed by Kakashi in his youth. It condenses high-density lightning chakra in the hand and stabs like a blade. Both its power and penetration are amazing.

At the same time, because the electric current stimulates the body, the user's speed will be explosively increased, making it impossible for the enemy to react.

However, this technique also has its flaws. Due to the extremely high thrust speed, even the caster will not be able to react in time. Once the trajectory of his actions is seen through by the enemy, he does not even need to do anything else. As long as a kunai is placed on the path, the caster will destroy himself because he cannot react in time.

Kakashi, who had just developed this technique when he was a teenager, suffered losses for this reason, and this technique was even judged as a forbidden technique.

The reason why there were no problems afterwards was because Kakashi received a Sharingan given to him by his then teammate Uchiha Obito. With the dynamic vision of the Sharingan, Kakashi was able to control this technique.

Not to mention Sasuke, as a member of the Uchiha clan, he has the Sharingan, so the shortcomings of the Chidori technique itself do not exist for him. Perhaps because he is not yet proficient, Sasuke can't control the Chidori technique with one hand, and he has to hold his wrist with the other hand to stabilize it.

Sasuke didn't dare to delay too much, so he maintained the Chidori and started running directly. Because of the electric current stimulating his body, his initial speed was very amazing the moment he started. Even as the running distance increased, his speed continued to increase, until he turned into a ray of lightning in the eyes of the audience, and fell directly from the high wall to the ground, made a 90-degree corner, and without any pause, rushed straight towards Gaara.

Gaara, who saw this scene with his third eye, also felt the crisis at this moment. Naturally, he would not just watch Sasuke rushing towards him.

The sand on the surface of the sand ball suddenly rioted, forming spikes that rushed straight towards Sasuke. However, because of the dynamic vision of the Sharingan, these spikes were undoubtedly clearly visible to Sasuke as if they were slow motion. He didn't even stop his steps, and just moved his body slightly at the smallest angle to avoid them all.

The sand ball itself had no effect on Chidori and was pierced directly. Sasuke's right hand was inserted deeply into it, and one could even faintly hear the sound of flesh being pierced.

"Won!"

Feeling the touch of his hand hitting the target, Sasuke showed a victorious smile on his face.

“Ah ...

A cry of pain was heard, but Sasuke didn't know if it was his own illusion. He always felt that this cry was more like that coming from a beast than a human.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little uneasy and tried to pull his hand out of the sand ball, but he couldn't.

Because the hand inserted into the sand ball seemed to be tightly bound by something, but fortunately after several attempts, Sasuke forcibly pulled his arm out of the sand ball.

Even through this gap, relying on the dynamic vision of the Sharingan, Sasuke saw that there was an eye inside the sand ball. It did not look like a human's, but was full of violent emotions like a beast. At the same time, the pupil was also a cross that was not in the shape of a human.

'What is this? '

Thinking of this, Sasuke jumped back several times in a row to create a considerable distance between them for the sake of caution, and then he felt a little relieved.

At this time, the sand ball completely lost its support and began to collapse, revealing Gaara's figure inside.

At this moment, he was hunched over, giving people a very uneasy feeling. Apart from that, what was more worrying was undoubtedly his right half of the body, which was completely covered by a large amount of sand. His right hand had completely turned into a claw that was larger than him, undoubtedly looking like a monster.

However, Gaara did not pay attention to Sasuke's words, but covered his head with his left hand and talked to himself in a delirious manner.

"Mom, wait a little longer, just wait a little longer, I will give you blood, give you more blood..."
