AI Model: gemini-2.5-flashChapter 183
Taking advantage of the momentum from Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, Naruto unleashed Wind Style: Wind Cutter Technique!
The two combined, instantly transforming into a furious torrent of wind blades!
Rumble—
Swish! Swish! Swish!!!
The wild wind howled, and wind blades sliced!
Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't help but exclaim, "This kid is quite impressive..."
But he naturally wasn't flustered.
He quickly formed hand seals, unleashing an incredibly violent amount of Chakra.
"Water Release! Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
Immediately, a raging torrent of water spewed from his mouth, covering the sky and earth, instantly surging forth and clashing with Naruto's two Wind Release Ninjutsu.
His amount of Chakra, Ninjutsu level, and mastery were all superior, instantly blocking the fierce wind and sharp wind blades, and even transforming into towering waves that fiercely attacked Naruto!
"What?"
Although Naruto was young, his Chakra amount was equally immense, and this was the first time he had seen an existence that surpassed him!
Facing the raging water current, Naruto leaped up, then released Chakra, landing steadily on the water's surface, his body swaying slightly with the flow.
Kisame Hoshigaki frowned and said, "Mr. Itachi, the Nine-Tailed kid is more troublesome than I imagined..."
Uchiha Itachi nodded, "To have such strength at this age is indeed admirable and praiseworthy. Although he is prey, I have to admit this point."
At that moment, Naruto had already activated his signature Ninjutsu.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Immediately—
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hundreds and thousands of Shadow Clones, accompanied by white smoke, appeared frantically!
They were densely packed, covering the entire surface of the lake!
Kisame Hoshigaki also praised, "He is indeed an extraordinary fellow..."
"Moreover, he didn't rely on the power of the Tailed Beast; just his own strength could reach such a level. It almost makes me admire him..."
Despite saying that, Kisame Hoshigaki still wore a playful expression.
"Heh, then let me show you, Nine-Tailed kid..."
"What the power of a Tailed Beast without a tail is!"
Kisame Hoshigaki quickly formed hand seals, then slammed his hands onto the water's surface!
In an instant—
"Thousand Feeding Sharks!"
Countless water sharks suddenly appeared, fiercely pouncing and biting from the water, the surface of the water, and even the air, charging wildly at Naruto's countless Shadow Clones!
Naruto was also startled, "This guy, what terrifying Chakra..."
He roared, and countless Shadow Clones also charged forward.
Bang! Bang! Bang!—
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!!
For a time, Naruto's Shadow Clones and Kisame Hoshigaki's Thousand Feeding Sharks clashed, accompanied by continuous roars, screams, and the sound of Ninjutsu disappearing into white smoke. The entire battlefield was in chaos... Soon, most of Naruto's thousands of Shadow Clones were annihilated!
Naruto looked at the few remaining Shadow Clones and couldn't help but gasp for breath.
Kisame Hoshigaki sneered sinisterly, "Although he's an impressive kid, he's still just a kid..."
"Water Release! Water Prison Jutsu!"
In an instant, he directly manipulated the water from a distance, taking advantage of Naruto's weakened state to unleash the Ninjutsu by surprise, directly forming a giant sphere of water that firmly trapped Naruto's main body and the remaining Shadow Clones within the Water Prison!
"W-what is this...?"
A suffocating sensation immediately washed over him. Naruto was completely submerged and trapped in the Water Prison, unable to breathe, and even more unable to unleash Chakra to break free.
Only then did Kisame Hoshigaki walk forward, looking at the trapped Naruto, and let out a cold, mocking laugh.
"Nine-Tailed capture successful."
"It even took quite a bit of effort from me; he's already quite admirable..."
"Damn it—"
Naruto wanted to roar, but he couldn't even open his mouth.
In panic and extreme anger, he couldn't help but unleash a violent power.
Boom—
Rumble—
The Water Prison immediately began to shake wildly, even feeling as if it might collapse at any moment!
Kisame Hoshigaki was startled, "He still has strength?!"
Water Prison Jutsu can suppress Chakra; generally, one cannot use Ninjutsu once trapped inside.
Naruto also realized this, so... the approaching Kisame Hoshigaki suddenly noticed that Narutoseemed to want to go all out, to fight with his back against the wall!
"Hmm? What is that...?"
The next moment.
Boom!!!
With a loud bang, Naruto actually pulled out an explosive tag and detonated it right next to himself!
This instantly shattered the Water Prison Jutsu, but Naruto himself was also bleeding profusely, half of his body covered in blood, which flowed out with the splashing Water Prison Jutsu and the lake water on the ground... Kisame Hoshigaki was also splashed with the mixture of blood and water.
The explosion's flash of light also made him recoil slightly.
"An explosive tag?"
"What a ruthless kid!"
Naruto escaped the Water Prison, but he was also gasping for breath and severely injured... Yet, he still managed to stand tall!
Kisame Hoshigaki was utterly astonished.
Although Naruto's strength was still no match for his own.
However... this kid in front of him, in terms of both combat experience and fighting will, was practically comparable to a battle-hardened Jonin!
It even made Kisame Hoshigaki feel a sense of bewilderment and shock!
"Indeed, as Mr. Itachi said, you are truly an extraordinary fellow!"
"But unfortunately, this is as far as you go!"
Kisame Hoshigaki fiercely swung his great sword, Samehada, slashing down hard at Naruto!
Just at that moment... "Protection! Gentle Fist Eight Trigrams Palm!"
Bang—
A blow delivered with all her might, to protect the one she loved most, actually unleashed power beyond its limits!
Hinata slammed her palm, sending the great sword, Samehada, flying away with a powerful shock!
"What?!"
Naruto was both surprised and delighted, "H-Hinata?!"
On the other side, Uchiha Sasuke finally caught sight of Uchiha Itachi's figure.
"U! Chi! Ha! Itachi!"
"I! Will! Kill! You!"
Sasuke roared, his eye power instantly blossoming. It was no longer the Double Tomoe Sharinganfrom before, but... the Three-Tomoe Sharingan!
At the same time, roaring lightning power erupted from his hand, screaming wildly, carrying endless hatred and fury, and blasted towards Uchiha Itachi!
Chapter 137: Shocking Itachi and Kisame! Naruto's Astonishing Strength! Please give me monthly votes!!!
This was Sasuke's desperate, all-out attack, fueled by burning anger and hatred!
The Three-Tomoe Sharingan's eye power bloomed unrestrained!
Chidori exploded with a roar!
Along the way, flames shot out, lightning raged, and the violent Lightning Release Chakra shrieked like a thousand birds, shaking the air, its power elevated to the extreme!
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!—"
Sasuke roared, slamming his strongest, all-out attack towards Uchiha Itachi!
However... Uchiha Itachi remained cold and indifferent.
Facing the violent attack, he didn't even move his feet, nor did he retreat or dodge an inch.
Boom—
Just as Sasuke was about to hit him, he sent him flying with a single palm... just one palm.
He nullified Sasuke's desperate attack with just one palm!
Rumble—
The power of Chidori was instantly knocked away, slamming into a nearby large tree.
Immediately, it blasted a huge hole, and electricity crackled on the tree trunk. Gradually, the entire tree snapped in half and crashed down... Sasuke was shocked and enraged, but even more terrifying was the aura of death assailing him from behind.
"You are too weak..."
"Sasuke."
Uchiha Itachi had already closed in, descending like the Shinigami!
Sasuke quickly dodged and turned, sending out a volley of Shuriken!
But Uchiha Itachi merely dodged slightly, evading all of them, as if the Shuriken were fired to coincide with his movements.
"Fire Release! Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
Sasuke seized the opportunity to unleash another trump card.
It seemingly struck Uchiha Itachi with a fierce blow.
However... that was merely an illusion.
Uchiha Itachi, who was seemingly engulfed by the Great Dragon Fire Technique, suddenly transformed into a swarm of crows, scattering in all directions... "Where?"
"Uchiha Itachi, where are you?!"
