"When did he do it because not even the Sharingan could see through it," Kakashi Hatake said while ignoring the steam in front of him.
"What, not even the Three-Tomoe Sharingan could see through it, how is that possible?" Uchiha Sasuke said in disbelief.
Sasuke had always believed that the Sharingan was the strongest ability.
Hearing Kakashi say that even the Sharingan could not see through Sora's trick was extremely difficult for him to accept.
As a proud member of the Uchiha clan, the idea that their bloodline ability might be inferior to someone else's was something Sasuke could not tolerate.
"From the moment I first met you and discussed dealing with Zabuza until now, everything you fought was only a Shadow Clone," Sora said calmly.
The Shadow Clone Technique was famous precisely because it could not easily be distinguished from the original body.
As long as chakra was distributed properly, even the Sharingan, or even the Mangekyo Sharingan, could not tell which body was real.
"What terrifying calculation," Kakashi thought to himself.
Sora's cunning was even more dangerous than Kakashi had imagined.
Looking at his three students, all of whom were roughly the same age as Sora, the difference between them was not only strength.
Their judgment, combat awareness, and planning were worlds apart.
Sora had planned this entire exchange from the very beginning.
"You watched my battle with Zabuza, so you already understand my fighting style very well," Sora continued calmly.
"But I know very little about you, especially the Sharingan. I have never fought against this bloodline limit before, so fighting you directly would be extremely disadvantageous.
Because of that, the Shadow Clone appeared from the beginning while my real body remained hidden. When the Shadow Clone was defeated by your Sharingan earlier, I gained experience from the entire process.
It is equivalent to fighting your Sharingan once. So now we can begin the second round."
Everything the Shadow Clone experienced had been transmitted directly back to Sora.
The information gained from fighting Kakashi was extremely valuable.
Zabuza had only needed a single battle with Kakashi to analyze many of the Sharingan's characteristics.
Sora already possessed knowledge about the Sharingan, so after this experience he understood it even more clearly.
"This is becoming troublesome but also very interesting," Kakashi said calmly.
His Three-Tomoe Sharingan locked onto Sora.
The three black tomoe began spinning rapidly.
"Rampage," Sora muttered internally.
His eyes slowly turned blood red.
The speed of blood circulation throughout his body increased several times over.
Adrenaline secretion reached the maximum level his body could safely endure.
His reaction speed, strength, and control all increased dramatically.
This was a technique Sora had created after the accident during his Water and Fire Tempering training.
Originally the concept had been simple.
Increase blood circulation speed to temporarily boost the body's performance.
However after that accident Sora had refined the concept and created a technique unique to himself.
It was somewhat similar to Blood and Qi Combustion, but the side effects were far smaller and the performance boost was far greater.
Without the accident revealing a new direction for him, Sora would not have been able to complete the technique so quickly.
The foundation had already existed.
The accident simply helped him connect the final pieces.
Now he only needed to continue perfecting it.
"His speed, strength, and reaction ability have all increased dramatically," Kakashi thought as his Sharingan spun rapidly.
The difficulty of tracking Sora's movements had increased several times.
Even the Sharingan required much greater concentration to analyze his actions.
"Fire Release," Kakashi said calmly.
His hands blurred into afterimages as he instantly completed a series of hand seals.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique."
"Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique," Sora responded immediately.
A blazing dragon of fire surged forward.
However the fire dragon was quickly suppressed and extinguished by the powerful water dragon.
"Rasengan," Sora said as chakra rapidly condensed in his palm.
He charged forward without hesitation.
"I cannot block this attack directly," Kakashi thought instantly.
"There is only one option."
Kakashi quickly used the Substitution Technique.
"Trying to escape, come out," Sora said as a faint smile appeared on his face.
He suddenly halted his forward charge and slammed his foot into the ground.
Although he did not possess the Sharingan, Sora's battle experience combined with the instinctive reaction granted by Rampage allowed him to achieve an almost identical level of predictive ability.
The Sharingan was powerful, but it was not invincible.
If it truly possessed absolute predictive power, the Uchiha clan would never have fallen.
Even Uchiha Madara himself had been defeated.
True masters relied on combat experience, instinct, and decisive judgment.
These qualities could rival the predictive abilities of the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Only the Mangekyo Sharingan possessed power that could truly dominate such opponents.
Sora was now fighting in a similar state.
By relying purely on instinct and experience, he could achieve predictions similar to the Sharingan.
Unlike Kakashi, who analyzed movements through visual calculation, Sora relied entirely on instinctive reactions.
As Sora's Heavenly Foot of Pain struck the ground, the earth within a dozen meters collapsed instantly.
The terrifying shockwave made Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura break out in cold sweat.
They silently made a decision.
If they ever fought Sora for real, they would absolutely never allow him to get close.
Kakashi was forced out from the underground hiding spot, looking slightly disheveled.
However Kakashi was a veteran of the Third Great Ninja War.
His combat awareness and experience were extraordinary.
Even against Sora's explosive power and the assistance of Rampage, Kakashi maintained a stalemate.
Nevertheless Kakashi still held the advantage.
The Sharingan's power was not limited to insight and prediction.
Suddenly Kakashi's Sharingan contracted.
The three tomoe shrank inward before expanding again.
Sora froze in place.
Still holding the Rasengan, he stood completely motionless.
Without realizing it, he had already fallen into Kakashi's genjutsu.
