Chapter 116: Is it Regeneration?

Crush…

Uchiha Shinichi who crushed the neck of the last Anbu ninja with one hand looked in the direction of the Village indifferently.

His actions this time weren’t assisted by anyone.

For this reason, even when he sneaked into the Root Base, he couldn’t find Shimura Danzo, and that Root Shinobi, being disappointed; had to make do with killing all the other ninjas at the Root Base, and then fled out of the village under the chase of several Anbu.

Releasing his grip from the neck of the now-dead Anbu, he observed the four Anbu ninjas that fell around him.

For Shinichi; defeating these four Anbu wasn’t a big deal, and if anyone noticed the situation of the surrounding, then they can easily conclude that it was a one-sided defeat of the four Anbu, with no exaggerated signs of battle.

Other than the Anbu whose neck was crushed by Shinichi, the other three died with clean & simple Sword Strikes.

Noticing something, Shinichi suddenly turned his attention towards the direction of the Village with a noticeable frown on his face.

Ever since awakening Mangekyou Sharingan, his perception and insight have increased drastically, so he was able to notice another Anbu team rushing towards him.

And among the Anbu in the squad, one particular Chakra caught his interest.

Initially, he thought of leaving, but now that he noticed that particular chakra signature, he stopped again and drew out the short sword on his waist and patiently waited for them to arrive.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

With the sound of breaking wind, one after another Anbu ninja flickered around Shinichi and surrounded him from all sides.

Not minding their actions, Shinichi calmly observed all the Anbu with squinty eyes.

Noticing Uchiha Shinichi’s calmness, one of the Anbu with a Dog Mask said seriously, “Uchiha Shinichi, surrender and come back to the Village with us, you will receive a fair trial for your actions!”

While tapping his sword on his shoulder, Shinichi only muttered coldly, “So, it really is you, Hatake Kakashi?”

Being the only non-Uchiha to use the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan, Hatake Kakashi is no stranger to the members of the Uchiha Clan, so most of the Uchiha knows about him and some even believe that the reason for his strength is the Sharingan.

Taking off his mask dog-mask, the Anbu ninja revealed himself before Shinichi, and as per expectations it really was none other than the captain of the Anbu Team-11, Hatake Kakashi.

Putting away his mask, Kakashi said seriously, “Uchiha Shinichi, things haven’t yet turned irreversible, you still have the chance to turn back on your actions and come back with us!”

“Yeah, I am not interested.” – muttered Shinichi with a yawn in boredom while waving his hands indifferently and asked indifferently as he cleaned off some dirt in his ear, “By the way, why are you the only one that came here, where are Hyuga Kuroto and Shisui?”

The identities of the Anbu members of the Team-11 are not a secret to the members of the Uchiha Clan because of the information given by Shisui, and generally, therefore, all the Uchiha-nin above chunin rank are informed of such details.

And in Shinichi’s eyes, Kakashi alone is nothing, the one he wanted to defeat was the pride of the Uchiha Clan, Shisui, and Hyuga Kuroto, to whom he lost previously.

As for the last member of their class?

It’s just some monkey with the green tights whose name Shinichi can’t bother to remember, and he doesn’t care about that freak!

Kakashi said while shaking his head, “They are on other tasks!”

This was obviously a lie, it’s because Hokage-Sama didn’t call either of the other three of Team-11 and only sent him alone, so Kakashi knew very well, that both Shisui and Kuroto would be at their homes respectively.

Hearing Kakashi’s reply Shinichi shook his head in disappointment, “A pity, thought that I might be able to have a good battle, but looks like I’ll have to be disappointed…, man, nothing’s going as planned… But I guess it doesn’t matter anymore.”

Understanding that Uchiha Shinichi didn’t have any intention of surrendering, Kakashi’s frowned. He knew just what it means to have the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, therefore Kakashi still tried to persuade him, “Uchiha Shinichi, you’ll have to understand that your actions will not only harm you but will also affect the entire Uchiha Clan, so think clearly wh-…!”

Whoosh…

Even before Kakashi could finish his sentence, the two Anbu standing at the side launched a surprise attack at Shinichi from the two sides and penetrated through Shinichi’s body…

Drip…

The red blood flowed along the body of the two swords and dripped on the ground.

Successfully piercing Shinichi from both sides, one of the Anbu ninjas turned towards Kakashi and said coldly, “What are you wasting so much time with talking nonsense? He is a traitor, just kill him and be done with it!”

Not paying attention to the Anbu’s words, Kakashi observed Shinichi with a frown.

‘It’s not a Genjutsu, neither is that any type of Shadow Clone… does that mean he is really dead?’

Kakashi was extremely shocked, he obviously didn’t expect the Anbu on the side to make the sudden move much less succeeding in the surprise attack!

‘No! This can’t be right! Dealing with a Mangekyou Awakener would definitely be difficult than this!’ – was Kakashi’s thought.

Noticing Kakashi’s shock, another Anbu said with an arrogant smirk, “Heh… I don’t think the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan is that big of a deal, in fact, there wasn’t even any need for Hokage-Sama to send so many Anbu to hunt him down!”

“Really…?” – came the chuckling voice of Uchiha Shinichi who still had two swords passing through his ribs.

Even before the two Anbu could turn or retreat, and before Kakashi or the other Anbu could warn them, the heads of those two were cleaved off their body with a single swipe!

No one expected this…

Uchiha Shinichi who should have already been dead because of being pierced by the two swords was not only not dead, but his movements too fast and rhythmic to not even be considered injured!

With a solemn expression, Kakashi again wore his Anbu Mask and was alert more than ever.

Observing, Shinichi’s condition with the Sharingan he was a little confused.

Kakashi can be sure that the wounds Uchiha Shinichi received were indeed real, as there is still blood on the ground, and it’s definitely not some kind of Genjutsu, so he couldn’t understand how Shinichi was acting as if he didn’t suffer from any injury.

Clang…

Clang…

Shinichi calmly drew out the two swords penetrating his chest and threw them on the ground casually.

And immediately following that the sword wound disappeared instantly, the speed was so fast that it far surpassed the limit of ‘Regeneration’.

Looking at this Kakashi muttered to himself, ‘Is Regeneration his Mangekyou ability?’

Not paying any mind to the alert Anbu still surrounding him, Shinichi smirked arrogantly as he declared with a slight chuckle, “Today, I will let you all understand the true power of the Sharingan!”

Understanding that negotiation was no longer an option, Kakashi ordered the surrounding Anbu without any more hesitation, “Everyone be ready for one of the most difficult of your life, and make sure to not directly look into his eyes!”

“Yes!” – the Surrounding Anbu responded and immediately launched their coordinated attacks on Shinichi.

Whiiish… Whiiish… Whiiish…

Clang… Clang… Clang… Clang…

Boom… Boom…

Instantly, the sound of shuriken, kunai, and sword metal collision sound and the explosions of detonation charm resounded in the forest.

The howling ninjutsu and a rapid clash of swords and fists caused mayhem in the gloomy night.

All the while the battle kept on going, Kakashi who was hidden in the environment; carefully observed Shinichi’s movements throughout the clash while waiting for a perfect opportunity for the insta-kill and to better understand Shinichi’s Mangekyou ability.

As far as Kakashi understands, only by understanding and countering Uchiha Shinichi’s Mangekyou Sharingan ability, will they be able to subdue, defeat, or kill Shinichi, otherwise, all their attacks would be wasted just like it happened previously.

“That time was definitely not a Genjutsu, he was indeed pierced through the chest by the two swords, but why did he heal instantly? If regeneration is really is Mangekyou ability, then how am I supposed to counter it?”

Although Kakashi is not an Uchiha, he still believes that only a Sharingan can deal with another Sharingan, therefore, currently only he with a Sharingan can deal with Uchiha Shinichi…
