It would be impossible not to be surprised.
Uchiha Itachi clearly remembered the idea he had himself, and it was an idea he had rejected at the time.
He didn't expect Sasuke could now recreate this scene solely through his own power; this was somewhat beyond Uchiha Itachi's expectations.
Sasuke wasn't relying entirely on his growth; he had his own abilities as well.
Sasuke looked up at the rain clouds in the sky. A huge hole had been blasted into the sky above his head by the Great Fireball Jutsu, allowing him to look directly up at the sky.
Gloomy rain clouds gathered in the sky, and flashes of lightning constantly appeared within the dark clouds.
Faint rumbling thunder could be heard from above, and the alternately flashing, dazzling electric light stood out sharply in the dimness.
The lightning-flashing rain clouds reflected in Sasuke's eyes. The red Three Tomoe Sharingan flickered slightly, and then Sasuke flipped over from the ground.
He had never used the Kirin with this much power before. He had always used it alone, so there hadn't been such a grand scene.
As the first time he used this jutsu in front of Uchiha Itachi, it should be considered pretty good.
Sasuke thought to himself.
There were two or three walls on the roofs nearby. Sasuke leaped onto the highest wall.
This place was once the Uchiha Clan's armory, and the Uchiha Clan's crest was still on this wall.
However, due to many years of neglect and lack of maintenance, the imprint of the crest had faded considerably, leaving only the carved black ink marks, giving it an indescribable sense of decay.
No one would ever return here, and besides them, no one else would ever know this place in the future.
Before, he had always looked at Uchiha Itachi at the same level or from below. Looking down from this height gave him a strange and novel feeling.
His brother, whom he always had to look up to, seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation with him at this moment. He looked at Uchiha Itachi's figure far below, as if he truly possessed the ability to surpass Uchiha Itachi.
The thunderclouds in the sky began to spin. Sasuke gathered Chakra in his hands, and his palms emitted crackling sounds of electricity passing through the air.
Amidst the crackling and buzzing sounds, the lightning in the sky seemed to cooperate with Sasuke.
The flashing electric light in the rolling clouds looked like a faintly visible dragon, constantly flickering.
"Although this jutsu was originally developed to stand at the same height as you."
I originally wanted to show you when we could cooperate, but it doesn't matter if I show you a bit early now.
Uchiha Itachi stood alone on the ground, which was covered in fragments of sharp rocks.
Sasuke should have seen scenes like this many times, but for some reason, looking down from this angle made him feel an unspeakable panic.
"But now, I can let you see it in advance."
Sasuke stood at a high place, the electric light in his hands flashing intermittently, constantly entwining around his wrists.
Using Chakra to control it, the flashing electric light in the rain clouds behind him was all controlled.
"Crackle—"
Amidst the rumbling thunder and the crackling sounds of electricity, a dragon-like electric light creature twisted in the rain clouds and then, poking its head out, emerged from behind Sasuke.
"This jutsu is called Kirin."
It's a jutsu I completed by myself, without your guidance.
"Looks like a lightning strike is coming."
White Zetsu narrowed his eyes slightly. The two of them needed to find an opportunity to slip away to a place where they wouldn't be affected.
Such a large lightning strike, by all appearances, was not something that could be easily avoided.
And that dragon-like appearance should cause quite a wide destructive range. He didn't know what method Uchiha Itachi would use to avoid it there.
However, with this destructive range, even if he dodged, it probably wouldn't help.
Even if they hid to the side, they would still be attacked. Given their distance and the situation about to unfold, if nothing unexpected happened, Uchiha Itachi would have to take this attack head-on.
While he felt that Uchiha Itachi could usually withstand such an attack, he had been absent-minded or his condition seemed unusual in this battle today.
Perhaps, when this lightning struck, he would be dead.
At this point, the battle was practically Sasuke's victory.
"The speed of the lightning strike is only one-thousandth of a second. Against a thousand shots like this, it's impossible to dodge."
Black Zetsu's face was blocked by nearby leaves, and he had already begun to retreat to the side.
White Zetsu raised an eyebrow and muttered with his idle mouth.
"But once this attack hits, won't it destroy the Sharingan along with it? It will be difficult for us to explain."
"If that really happens, there will be nothing we can do."
He didn't know what Obito's plan was, but if his eyes were destroyed by the lightning strike, he couldn't do anything and could only let nature take its course.
You want to cooperate with me using this jutsu?
Uchiha Itachi could understand such words. He looked at the black flames beside him. Using even these flames was indeed an interesting idea.
But it would only be for this one time; there would be no opportunity for cooperation.
A slight smile appeared on Uchiha Itachi's lips.
He definitely wouldn't be able to dodge such a large-scale lightning strike, so he could only take it head-on.
If I didn't need to keep these eyes for him, to prevent Sasuke from following the path of blindness with me, I wouldn't have to take this attack head-on.
The flashing electric dragon, emitting thunderous roars, rushed straight down.
All of Sasuke's Chakra had been used for Kirin. Even if they were to fight again later, he would have no strength left to fight back.
Is it enough? Hasn't Kirin proven his growth so far?
Sasuke let out a subtle sigh. It should be over by now.
Blue electric light flickered and pounced downwards, directly creating a white light in the surroundings, illuminating the entire space in an instant.
Even Zetsu, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but wrap himself tightly with his leaves and dust flew up together, turning into ashes in the white light.
The entire building dissolved into nothingness amidst the thunderous roars. The high wall where Sasuke had stood also collapsed.
Sasuke stepped on the rubble and stood on the jagged, broken ground. The surroundings were still filled with dust that obscured vision.
The Three Tomoe in his eyes had already vanished, leaving only his black pupils, gazing at the dust ahead.
A light breeze swept by. When Sasuke raised his eyes, he saw a huge, red Chakra manifestation.
"What…?" Spoon.
