The Uchiha clan, which was wiped out entirely, lacked vision.

Chapter 284 A Battle of Strength and Speed

"It's finally here."

Neji's heart skipped a beat, and he lifted his body upwards like an arrow piercing the clouds, soaring straight into the sky.

Susanoo's two giant hands swiftly grabbed at the air, creating sonic booms.

But Neji's body twisted and turned in mid-air with ease, nimbly avoiding all the captures.

"A clumsy, big guy can only bully weaker opponents; against agile opponents of the same level, he'll just get toyed with!"

Neji hovered beneath the bright moon, mocking the approaching Itachi with unrestrained sarcasm.

"Yeah?"

Faced with Neji's provocation, Itachi remained expressionless, only glaring at him, and the kaleidoscope in his right eye began to spin.

"Tsukuyomi!"

Neji's body stiffened, and he immediately fell from mid-air.

Neji's rapid improvement in strength, while freeing him from mental constraints, also made him incredibly arrogant.

When superpowers are strong enough, super brains start to slack off.

When faced with any problem, the first solution is to "quickly use super power".

When An Gang first obtained the kaleidoscope, he suffered repeated setbacks.

In the end, they always turn the tide with the Kaleidoscope and Susanoo, so why can't they be reckless?

Neji, inside the illusionary space, realized this when he noticed the colors around him starting to fade, and was immediately filled with shame and anger.

With a thought, his immense pupil power erupted from his pair of dazzling "Ten-Sheng Eyes".

"Lord An once said that the essence of all ninjutsu is chakra!"

"Let's see if your eye technique chakra is stronger, or my eye power chakra is more formidable!"

Neji roared, channeling all his chakra into his eyes, and clashed head-on with Itachi's eye power.

In an instant, the black and white illusion space cracked open, and streaks of green chakra lightning shattered the space, destroying the cross that bound Neji and freeing him.

Neji, who was falling, paused, and flames of anger shot from his eyes.

"Damn it!"

"We almost capsized in the gutter!"

"What a disgrace!"

Neji was burning with rage. He raised his hands, and chakra beads quickly condensed in front of him.

Meanwhile, Itachi on the other side raised his shield with his left hand and slashed down with his longsword in his right.

The massive katana, like a heavy panel, fell from the sky carrying immense wind pressure.

Before the sword's edge arrives, its momentum precedes it.

The resulting gale caused Neji's chakra cloak to flutter wildly.

The dust on the ground beneath Neji's feet was shaken by the wind pressure and fled in all directions, centered on this spot.

"hehe."

Neji sneered, his body moving as nimbly as a fish, dodging left and right, and broke free from the giant sword's lock.

"boom!"

The giant sword slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a massive trench with a single strike.

The violent shockwave shot straight out along the trench, cutting all the houses in its path in two.

"Ha ha ha ha----"

Neji's body rapidly ascended, spiraling around the massive energy body of Susanoo as he laughed heartily.

Itachi controlled Susanoo to unleash a series of attacks, but Neji was like a nimble monkey, dodging and weaving around Susanoo, causing all of Susanoo's attacks to miss. Not only did they fail to harm Neji, but they also caused a lot of collateral damage to the village.

"Itachi, wasn't what I just said clear enough?"

"Someone as bulky as you is completely outmatched by my agility!"

"You'll never be able to hit me with Susanoo alone!"

Accompanied by Neji's maniacal laughter, chakra beads rained down on Susanoo's massive body.

"Boom boom boom boom—"

Green flame flowers bloomed on the surface of Susanoo's body.

The chakra rosary was incredibly powerful; with each explosion, cracks gradually appeared on the Susanoo's energy armor.

Itachi calmly raised the shield in his left hand in front of him, blocking the explosion.

By the time he moved the shield away again, the cracks that Neji had painstakingly created on Susanoo had completely disappeared.

"Hmph, I can't hit you, but you can't break me either," Itachi retorted sarcastically.

Why should I destroy you?

Neji suddenly revealed a strange smile.

His body suddenly pulled away and rushed towards another member of the Hyuga clan.

"I'm on the offensive now, and you're on the defensive. You need to understand the situation, Itachi!"

The clan leader panicked and immediately turned and ran, shouting loudly.

"Stop him! He's coming!"

Seeing that Neji was forming new chakra beads, Itachi knew he had no other choice but to clap his hands together.

"Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!"

With the support of Susanoo, the Wood Release forest that erupted this time was unprecedentedly vast, almost engulfing the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

However, under Itachi's control, these giant tree vines at most only ravaged Konoha Village and destroyed the village's recently repaired infrastructure, without harming anyone.

Of course, Itachi's purpose was not to beautify or destroy the village, but to protect his companions in the village.

Under the weasel's control, all the trees grew inwards and twisted together to form a towering giant tree.

No matter how high Neji flew, Itachi was confident he could make the giant tree soar to the same height.

As for the hardness of this giant tree, just look at its exaggerated width and you'll know that cutting it down won't be easy.

"Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"

Neji let out a fierce shout, and the golden sword in his hand shone brightly, shooting straight into the sky. Then, he gripped it with both hands and slashed it in half.

"boom!"

The golden sword and the giant tree collided, scattering golden sparks and flying tree sap, locked in a fierce stalemate.

"Drink!"

The two roared simultaneously, their veins bulging, their bodies tense, squeezing out all the chakra in their bodies to fight desperately.

After a brief stalemate, the sharp golden sword finally began to slowly pierce into the body of the giant tree, moving faster and faster until it completely penetrated the tree, cleaving it in two.

However, the giant tree did not lean or fall; it remained standing as before, and even continued to wave its thick vines, wrapping around Neji.

The parts that were originally severed have long since been mended again.

This colossal tree possessed such immense vitality that it could only be severed in one fell swoop; otherwise, if the stalemate continued for even a moment, the cuts would have healed completely.

In this clash, the two appeared to be evenly matched. However, in reality, Neji seemed to be slightly inferior to Itachi.
