Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

Sasuke unleashed the cursed seal to its second state, and large, hand-like wings burst forth from his back. He lifted his feet off the ground, hovering in mid-air, and formed hand seals.

—Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!

After undergoing training, Sasuke's chakra reserves are now vastly different from before, and his second Cursed Seal state represents a qualitative leap. When he uses this Great Fireball in this cramped valley, it faintly resembles the style of Madara's Great Fireball Extinction in the past!

But then, Miyamoto silently raised his demon sword.

Whoosh! The evil chakra gathered behind him into a terrifying shadow of a malevolent spirit, which lunged forward to devour him as his sword fell!

The fireball was engulfed in the blink of an eye!

Sasuke was shocked and tried to dodge, but the aura emanating from the evil spirit made him tremble all over!

I can't move!?

The evil spirit was about to devour him.

Move! Move! Move!

Sasuke thrust a kunai into his own thigh, using the intense pain to rouse his body and dodge to the side...

*Smash!* The evil spirit's maw ripped off half of Sasuke's wing in his Cursed Seal state two, and then spread outwards!

"!" Several kilometers away, Naruto, who was running at full speed, suddenly felt an ominous feeling coming towards him. He grabbed Sakura behind him, stepped on the mountain wall, and jumped upwards with all his might.

boom!!

Seconds later, the image of the evil spirit swept past from below, reaching the very end...

"What was that just now?!" Naruto broke out in a cold sweat, his heart filled with even more worry for Sasuke's safety: "Sasuke, you absolutely have to hold on until I get there!!"

Strangely, after delivering that terrifying blow, Miyamoto's posture froze. He remained motionless, his head bowed, still in the position of striking with his sword!

Sasuke clutched his severed wing, his face contorted in pain: "A power even more domineering than the cursed seal... is eroding my body!!"

He was almost unable to move!

This means that his life is completely under the control of the other party!

My legs were trembling uncontrollably; it was the 'fear' that all humans experience!

Sasuke loathed this feeling because it reminded him of his weaker days!

But even though he could easily take Sasuke's life... Miyamoto remained completely still!

Sasuke shouted, "Why aren't you attacking?! Are you implying you don't respect me?!"

"Who...are you? And who am I?" A confused question came from beneath the black helmet.

Sasuke was suddenly startled: Could it be... that his consciousness... is not clear?

Strike while the iron is hot and kill him!

Noisy!

Sasuke's left eye turned into a six-pointed star, focusing on Miyamoto. He decided to deal with the enemy in front of him, who might go berserk at any moment, in the quickest way possible!

Drip! A line of blood trickled down the corner of his eye, spiderweb-like blood vessels tearing through the whites of his eyes!

——Amaterasu!

Bear!!

Black flames erupted from the palace itself, scorching the samurai armor, causing it to crackle and twist, and the internal insulation layer quickly failed...

"Ugh!!" Miyamoto cried out in great pain, gripping his demon sword tightly as a large amount of chakra surged into it!

hum!

The demon sword emitted a buzzing sound, and the black flames that enveloped Miyamoto's entire body quickly pierced into the blade and disappeared... After settling down, several pitch-black inscriptions appeared on the blade!

Sasuke was stunned and unable to move: "That sword... absorbed my black flames!? How is this possible? This is a Mangekyou Sharingan technique!!"

Suddenly, Miyamoto raised his lowered head, his eyes radiating an eerie purple light. He raised his demon sword, the purple chakra covering it expanding into a pillar, which, with the swing of his sword, cascaded down towards Sasuke like a waterfall!

"It's over..." Sasuke was utterly despondent. He closed his eyes in despair, letting the dark shadow envelop him.

Whoosh! A golden light flashed, and a shadow appeared behind Sasuke before disappearing.

Rumble! ...

The purple pillar crashed down, shattering into a shower of purple light! The purple light surged, and a sinister dragon head rose from the ground, crushing down... Another earth-shaking tremor followed, and when it subsided, the spot where Sasuke had just stood had become a bottomless black hole!

"Phew... thankfully I made it in time."

Nearby, Naruto withdrew his hand from Sasuke's shoulder and breathed a sigh of relief. At the critical moment, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to save Sasuke!

"Sasuke-kun, are you alright?" Sakura asked with concern.

"..." Sasuke was still in shock, staring blankly at the large crater in the ground: "Run, run quickly, Naruto... we'll die. If we don't run, all three of us will die here!"

Naruto said solemnly, "I want to too... but this valley is strange. I can clearly sense the Flying Thunder God kunai left outside, but I can't transfer it out. Father could probably do it, but my Flying Thunder God skills are not good enough!"

Zizi!

At this moment, the cursed seal on Sasuke's body faded, revealing his bloody back, which was shrouded in purple mist!

"Ugh!!" He collapsed to the ground.

"Sasuke-kun!!" Sakura cried out urgently, quickly crouching down and using her newly recovered chakra to heal Sasuke's injuries.

But her medical ninjutsu was ineffective against the injury.

Sakura was so anxious that tears were about to fall: "How...how could this happen...My medical ninjutsu didn't work. If only Lady Tsunade were here!!"

Naruto clenched his fists, stepped forward to block the two, and turned his gaze to the enemy.

Sasuke gritted his teeth and said, "Listen, Naruto! If I'm not mistaken, this enemy is wielding a cursed sword! But he seems unable to maintain a clear mind, only able to unleash an attack every few days. Moreover, that sword can absorb attacks for him. The eye technique I used on him before was absorbed, mainly because I didn't have enough chakra. Naruto, if it were you, with your vast chakra reserves, you could defeat him! Because activating that sword to absorb attacks requires a huge amount of chakra!"

Hearing this information, Naruto smiled with relief: "Sasuke, you're really different now. Even when you're in dire straits, you can still gather such detailed intelligence about the enemy... Now, leave it to me!"

call out!

He threw out a Flying Thunder God kunai.

Ninja Art: Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!

Flying Thunder God Kunku has not a single fraction of hundreds!

Ninja Art: Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Hundreds of shadow clones traversed the Flying Thunder God Kunai, each shadow clone conjuring a Rasengan in its hand!

—Ninja Art: Flying Lightning Spiral Flash Chaos!

Chapter 443 Falling Cherry Blossoms!

Rumble! Rumble!

Naruto's Rasengan barrage bombarded the area, and the explosive shockwaves destroyed all the shadow clones!

"Did they take it down?!" Sakura asked anxiously.

Naruto's hand quietly clenched.

As the smoke and dust cleared... there stood a purple cocoon!

Sasuke stared in disbelief: "Chakra shield! That sword can still unleash this kind of power?!"

Crack! Crack! The chakra shield cracked and shattered, revealing Miyamoto completely unharmed!

Naruto said optimistically, "It seems that the chakra shield's defensive power is also limited. Its limit is the intensity of my attack just now. I just need to unleash an even stronger attack!"

Only Naruto would dare to say something like that!

hum!

Miyamoto's eyes lit up with a purple light.

Sasuke exclaimed, "He's about to retaliate!!"

Without a second thought, Naruto slammed his hand down on the ground!

—Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!

Boom!! A tree-like structure burst forth from the ground, rapidly filling the limited space...

But... in Naruto's senses, a powerful, unexpected force is blocking the spread of the Tree World!

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! In a short while... the tree boundary was torn apart and disintegrated in large sections!

Before the giant tree in front of us is smashed to pieces!

Naruto changes his hand seals!

Wood escape·Wooden spindle wall!

咣 咣 咣!

Wooden pillars rose from all four sides, closing in to form a sturdy protective barrier, completely enveloping him and the two people behind him...

Click! Click! Click!

It was this wooden ingot that blocked the final aftershocks of Miyamoto's attack!

"Phew." Naruto let out a long sigh, looking at his right arm with gratitude in his heart: If it weren't for the power given to me by Uncle Shadow, things would have been really bad. I must repay him properly in the future...

After the attack, Miyamoto returned to that state, muttering, "Who am I? Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?"

Sasuke said, "If you want to defeat him, now's the time!"

"Ah, I think so too!!"

This time, Naruto charged forward directly, his mind racing: I already know the limit of the chakra shield from before, and I also need to consider the possibility that he might use his sword to absorb the attack.

Judging from the damage to his armor, Sasuke's attack was effective before. This means that absorbing chakra requires him to be proactive. Therefore, I'll use a combination ninjutsu with 'maximum output efficiency per unit time' to finish him off in one go!

Ninjutsu comes in all shapes and sizes, but within a certain range of chakra intensity, there is bound to be a limit to its destructive power!

Minato once taught Naruto: "Naruto, your chakra reserves are extraordinary. You hardly need to worry about chakra consumption in battle. However, having a large amount of chakra doesn't mean you can attack without any strategy. You need to skillfully allocate your chakra and figure out how to combine ninjutsu to maximize your output efficiency per unit of time. That will allow you to effectively counter enemies with special abilities and amazing regenerative abilities!"

Naruto murmured, "I spent half a year figuring out a set of combination ninjutsu, which is the limit of my current chakra strength. I originally only practiced it in the 'pile test' of the Great Tou no Ben, and I didn't dare to apply it to actual combat. But this enemy seems a bit chaotic, so I might as well treat it as a pile test and give it a try!"

The Great Strike Technique, developed by Tensuke, is a scientific ninja tool used to test a ninja's skills. After six months of development, its functions have diversified, and it can quantify the power of ninjutsu in a virtual projection space, also known as "pile driving"!
