So, Leng is already this strong? Then how can I, with this strength, boast about protecting Leng?" Shisui's fingernails dug into his palm, not caring even as blood flowed out.
However, no one noticed that Shisui's eyes were blood-red at this moment, with a black tomoe appearing in his pupils, constantly spinning.
It turned out that Shisui had awakened a one-tomoe Sharingan due to extreme shame, as Leng's strength had long surpassed his own, yet he had once boasted of protecting her. This awakening happened two years earlier than in the original story, where Shisui awakened his Sharingan due to a teammate's death.
And Shisui also noticed that everything before his eyes seemed to slow down, like a slow-motion video.
The dust floating in the air, the scattered rubble, all became slow. Although he still couldn't clearly see Leng and Might Duy's movements, they had slowed down a bit.
"Yosh, this is the hot-blooded youth, it's boiling!"
Might Duy's every punch and kick carried extreme speed and power, and terrifying Chakra was constantly erupting, causing the air to continuously explode.
Leng was already able to unleash Konoha Steel Fist Style with any limb of her body.
Her fists and elbows could erupt fiercely, and her Chakra surged wildly, clashing with Might Duy.
"Uncle Duy, let's decide this with one move!" Leng used the force of their clash to leap onto a large tree behind her. They had been fighting for a long time, it was time to end it.
"Yosh, Leng, come on!" Might Duy had also unleashed all of his normal strength, only stopping short of opening the Eight Gates.
"Uncle Duy, be careful, Morning Peacock!" That's right, after fighting for a long time, Leng, based on the principle of Leaf Strong Whirlwind, created her own Morning Peacock, which unleashed countless Chakra blasts. However, unlike the original version, Leng incorporated fire-nature transformation into this move.
Leng stomped and shattered the giant tree, three people wide, beneath her feet, sending wood chips flying everywhere. Using the recoil, Leng shot into the air like lightning.
Her fists swung wildly, so fast that it was dazzling, as if countless fists were thrown simultaneously, forming a dense blur of punches.
Each air wave Leng punched out combined with scorching fire-attribute Chakra, transforming into countless fiery meteors, plummeting towards Might Duy.
The fiery meteors were extremely fast, and the scorching high temperature seemed to ignite the entire space.
They drew beautiful and deadly arcs in the air, like the fanned tail feathers of a peacock.
"Good, this move is truly a genius idea. Watch my Konoha Divine Dragon." Might Duy might have been taught by Teacher Chen, learning the Konoha Divine Dragon.
In the air, Leng was fully replicating this incredibly powerful Konoha Divine Dragon, planning to have more skills at her disposal.
Might Duy spun wildly, instantly transforming into a slender tornado. The greenish-white tornado drew a beautiful arc, rose into the sky, and transformed into a divine dragon, raising its head and roaring, charging towards the plummeting fiery meteors.
"Boom!" A tremendous roar, shaking for over a thousand meters, erupted, and a tiny mushroom cloud appeared at the edge of the Death Forest. Countless birds were startled and flew into the sky.
The terrifying air blast directly destroyed giant trees within a dozen meters, smoke and dust filled the sky, and flying debris pierced through some trees.
Shisui and Might Guy had to retreat hundreds of meters away to avoid being affected, but their vision was still obscured by the dust.
"What's that noise? Go investigate quickly!" The Third Hokage, working in the Hokage Building, sensed this battle fluctuation and immediately ordered the Anbu to go inspect.
In a Root base, because the Third Shinobi World War was imminent, Danzo had extracted some human resources from the Third Hokage. At this moment, he was individually carving the Orochi Tongue Seal onto them. Unexpectedly, a violent tremor accidentally activated the seal, directly killing the newly joined Root member.
"Damn it! Who is it! Investigate for this old man!" Danzo, who had not yet wrapped himself in bandages, was extremely furious because the recently deceased was a very talented Ninja from a small Ninja clan.
In a highly secluded base within the Death Forest, Orochimaru, who was researching Reanimation Jutsu, had a set of experimental materials directly destroyed by the violent tremor, and his expression was extremely grim.
Leng and Duy's decisive battle ended, but it attracted a large number of uninvited guests, which made Leng a bit disheartened.
However, at this moment, both she and Duy were sent flying by the huge recoil, breaking some branches before stopping, though both of their appearances had turned into beggar's rags.
Leng, at the critical moment, mobilized all her Chakra and Curse Power to form two thick layers of protection, so she was not injured at this time.
"Damn it, I overdid it!" Leng ran to Shisui and Might Guy's side and sensed a large number of Ninja approaching. Might Duy, who had returned, also seemed to know that he had caused trouble and was a bit at a loss.
Not long after, the Third Hokage and the Anbu, Danzo and the Root, Orochimaru and his followers, Minato Namikaze, Obito, and Kakashi, as well as some main members of the Jonin class, all arrived.
"Duy, what happened? Who were you fighting?" The Third Hokage knew Duy, knowing that he ran past the Hokage Building every day and was a Ninja with good taijutsu.
"Ah? This… that… it was me and Leng sparring~" Duy scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed, and laughed sheepishly.
"Hmph, a mere taijutsu Ninja, is this kind of commotion something you can cause? Don't force this old man to send you to the interrogation unit!"
Danzo naturally didn't believe him. In his eyes, Duy was just a weak taijutsu Ninja without talent, so he directly scolded him without hesitation.
"Danzo, don't jump to conclusions." Then he asked Duy, "Who is Leng?"
Leng knew she couldn't escape, so she stepped forward directly, "Third Hokage-sama, I am Leng Yagyu. I got carried away and developed a new technique, so I sparred with Uncle Duy. I apologize for disturbing you and all the sirs."
Leng's words were very skillful. She didn't mention her Uchiha surname, signaling to the Village's upper echelons that she wasn't aligned with the Uchiha Clan.
Then, she used a little girl's tone to lower their guard, making them think she was just a mischievous little girl.
"You are Leng, Yagyu? You must be Irming Yagyu's child." Although the Third Hokage had many criticisms in other areas, one had to admire that he had memorized almost all the Ninja in the Village.
"Yes, Third Hokage Uncle." Leng smiled sweetly, wanting to build rapport and thereby reduce the possibility of being targeted because of her Uchiha bloodline.
"Hokage-sama, we have already checked, and there are indeed no unfamiliar Ninja presences. This was caused by the battle between these two."
The professional Anbu members quickly analyzed and confirmed that it was indeed as Duy had said.
"Hmm, that's good. Danzo, Orochimaru, you all can go back first. It was just a small farce."
The Third Hokage immediately planned to send them away to prevent them from interfering with his efforts to recruit this genius.
A Root member respectfully ran over and whispered a few words into Danzo's ear. Then Danzo looked at Leng, "Brat, you have the Uchiha Clan's bloodline, don't you? Hmph, the inherently evil Uchiha!"
