Chapter 121: Another Uchiha?

"Arrival: Thousand-Hand Strike!"

A golden Kannon statue with a thousand arms suddenly appeared behind Chiriku.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed. Before he could strike, a barrage of golden chakra fists from the statue swiftly attacked him.

"Too fast!"

Barely blocking a few hits, Sasuke was continuously pushed back, grimacing in pain. Remembering Hagoromo Gengetsu's permission to reveal his identity, he activated his Sharingan without hesitation.DiiScôver new stories on no/v/e()/lbin(.)c/o/m

Three black tomoe rapidly spun in Sasuke's blood-red eyes. Instantly, everything seemed to slow down, allowing him to clearly see the incoming golden chakra fists.

"I can dodge them!"

With a flash of lightning chakra enhancing his muscles, Sasuke's speed surged. Dodging the chakra fists with precision, he raised his sword and shouted:

"Chidori Blade!"

The blade, enveloped in lightning chakra, darted towards Chiriku, seizing an opening.

"Sharingan??"

Noticing the change in Sasuke's eyes, Chiriku quickly averted his gaze, filled with surprise.

The Uchiha clan was supposed to be extinct. The only known Sharingan users left were the traitor Itachi, the Copy Ninja Kakashi, and the recently defected last Uchiha, Sasuke.

The person before him could only be Uchiha Sasuke. But why was he at the Fire Temple? And who was the masked man he followed?

In the midst of these thoughts, Chiriku's movements remained calm. Facing Sasuke's attack, his expression stayed composed.

"Raging Vajra!"

The Kannon statue behind him entered an enraged state, its golden fists turning red and striking with even greater force towards Sasuke. Though Sasuke could still see the attacks, his body couldn't keep up.

Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique!

In an instant, Chiriku's voice stopped, and his body stiffened. He felt as if large iron stakes had pinned him down.

"How? How could I be caught in a genjutsu so easily?"

Chiriku couldn't believe it. He thought he saw the familiar red of the Sharingan behind the mask.

"Sharingan??"

"Only a high-level Sharingan genjutsu could ensnare me so effortlessly."

"But the Uchiha clan is nearly extinct! Who is this man?"

Behind him, the monks were still cheering, unaware of the danger. They believed their leader could handle any threat.

However, as Gengetsu walked up to the immobilized Chiriku, the monks' cheers died down, sensing something was wrong. Rushing forward, they tried to save their leader.

But it was too late.

Gengetsu grabbed Chiriku's chin, forcing him to look into his eyes. Using the eye technique, he copied all the knowledge about the Sennin Talent from Chiriku's mind.

"Stop!"

"Release the chief monk!"

"Everyone, attack!"

As the monks rushed forward, worried for Chiriku's safety, Sasuke stepped in front of them, saying coldly, "I can't let you interfere."

*Clang~~*

The sound of a blade being drawn rang out. Soon, the sound of clashing weapons, cries of pain, and bodies hitting the ground filled the air.

What had been a tranquil temple was now filled with the sounds of battle.
