Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

Uchiha Itachi's performance in the original plot is that of a complete beast in both behavior and character. However, in terms of ninja talent, he is truly at the top level.

It can be said that he has never lost a battle since his debut, and has never even been suppressed by his opponents.

No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he always has a backup plan and a way to defeat the enemy.

In this respect, he is actually a bit like Aoba. It can even be said that Aoba was imitating the template of Uchiha Itachi from the beginning. The ninja body illusion is fully developed, and there is always one or more trump cards hidden.

But later, Aoba went further and eventually left Itachi behind.

But the duel in front of him was still a traditional ninja match. After all, Uchiha Madara did not have the Samsara Eye. His combat power was not up to the Six Paths, so he was still in the realm of ninja.

As long as it is within the scope of ninja, theoretically it can be defeated.

Uchiha Itachi didn't have the Sharingan, so most of his illusions were useless, but his ninjutsu and taijutsu had greatly improved.

The body that Aoba prepared for him was a specially prepared high-grade one. You know, Konoha is now able to use White Zetsu cells to clone the organs or bodies of ninjas.

But there are also levels of clones. The one used by Uchiha Itachi is naturally the best. It can almost be said to be a weakened immortal body. Rapid self-healing, super chakra, and even enhanced perception are all innate.

"Xin, I need your sword."

Shin looked at him. The sword in his hand was the one Aoba gave him. The second Kusanagi sword from Orochimaru, whose real name is the Sky Sword. In the original plot, the one Sasuke used in the later period.

"So your plan is to go up and fight him one-on-one?" Kakashi was shocked when he saw Itachi's actions.

"Yes, facing an opponent like Madara, there is no way to cheat. What we need to do is to show our strongest side."

Kakashi wanted to say something more, but thinking of what Aoba had told him before he left, he finally nodded.

"I understand what you mean."

Itachi nodded, then walked forward alone, knife in hand.

Madara saw his actions and curled his lips in disdain.

He had seen before that Itachi's ninja talent was amazing. But he was still far behind himself. However, this kid was very familiar with Uchiha, and his every move had a strong Uchiha style.

This made Madara still very interested in him.

"Boy, were you specially trained by Kamikawa Aoba to deal with me?"

Itachi nodded.

"I guess so, senior."

"Very good. The two ninjas that I am interested in are Hashirama and Aoba. I noticed before that your movements are a bit awkward. Did that boy do something to your body?"

"No, it's because I just recovered from a serious injury and I'm not used to it yet."

"I see. Then let me see your true strength."

According to Aoba, Uchiha Itachi's ninja talent should be at the same level as Madara's. It's just that Madara is the reincarnation of Indra, while Itachi is not, and Itachi is also a sickly person, so the upper limit is locked.

Aoba gave Itachi a new and more powerful body so that he could unleash his full potential.

Itachi was not used to it at first, but after fighting for a period of time, he has begun to fully master this new body.

"Senior, please give me some advice."

Itachi raised his hand and pointed the Aerial Sword in his hand at Madara.

The next second, the two figures disappeared at the same time.

Not far away, Nagato and others who were watching the battle were shocked at the same time.

"The speed of the spell is so fast! I can't even keep up with it."

Neither Itachi nor Madara used large-scale ninjutsu, but returned to the traditional ninja duel.

Instant body, clone, substitute, physical skills, swordsmanship, and various small skills collide in series.

Several people turned their eyes to the third generation at the same time. Although the third generation present was not the strongest, he had the most experience.

The third generation was also surprised by the fight between the two.

"This is probably why any of our tactics cannot expose Uchiha Madara's flaws. Everyone's casting speed is not at the same level.

The only person present who can keep up with their speed is Minato, who is good at the Unmarried Ninjutsu. "

"No, it's not that simple. They are not just fast at casting spells. In fact, every time they move or fight, they have at least three backup plans.

Every fight is to lure the opponent into revealing a flaw.

Looking at the shuriken collision just now, Itachi threw out five shuriken. But only three of them flew towards Madara, and the other two were meant to hit the tree trunk behind Madara. "

Because there were two detonating tags left by Itachi on the tree trunk.

"The purpose of the detonating talisman is not to hurt Madara, but to force him to dodge to the left."

"Did he set a trap on the left side?"

Among the five people present, Nobuyuki and Nagato were not very adaptable to this mode of battle.

One of them is immortal and willing to fight to the death, while the other is used to using the Samsara Eye and is used to fighting in a smooth manner. On the contrary, he is not very good at this kind of precise and delicate battle.

"No, there aren't any traps. It's just a test." Kakashi took over the topic.

"test?"

"That's right. In the previous fights, Madara dodged eleven times in total. Eight of them were to the right. Itachi deduced that Madara was used to dodging to the right. So he forced him to dodge to the left.

After all, people are more likely to make mistakes when they go against their habits. In the three minutes or so of fighting just now, they have already tested each other more than twenty times. But all the tests were disguised as normal attacks.

These two people have turned ninja skills into an instinct. "
