The power Yagami faced at this moment was more than ten times stronger than what he encountered in the Anbu Prison!
Not only was there Sarutobi Asuma, an elite Jonin, but every Anbu here was also much more skilled than those in the prison.
This battle was almost impossible to win.
But Yagami still charged forward without hesitation.
If he retreated even a single step, he wouldn't be Uchiha Yagami.
In the clash with Sarutobi Asuma just now, both sides went all out. Although Yagami was slightly superior in strength, the opponent's Wind Blade had an elemental advantage over his False Darkness Blade.
Yagami was not faring well either, his hands were numb from the impact, and countless small cuts were left by the Wind Blade!
Not to mention, his Chakra was already severely depleted, and his body was covered in wounds, both large and small.
But he still had to...
Fight!
Call him reckless, call him impulsive, call him suicidal...
It doesn't matter!
He only wanted to seek justice!
Those who should be killed never seem to die...
Then he could only kill them himself!
If he backed down, then his journey in this world would be meaningless!
If he dodged even once, then his so-called fairness and justice would be meaningless!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
I must Kill!
I must Kill for Justice!
Yagami roared, his Sharingan's power raised to the extreme, its blood-red light surging. As he dashed forward like lightning, it flickered with streaks of crimson light!
In his hand, the False Darkness Blade was like crimson lightning tearing through the void, and combined with the Sharingan's ultimate perception, it precisely blocked all the wild attacks.
He even seized the opportunity, plunging his blade into the chest of an Anbu!
Electric light burst!
Bang!
With a bang, that Anbu's chest instantly exploded as well, leaving a massive bloody hole!
Ding!
[You have killed an ANBU, freeing him from a life of endless darkness. Good deed, +80 Merit Points!]
"Naiken!"
Seeing this, Sarutobi Asuma was enraged, roaring loudly, and rushed towards Yagami once more, leading the charge!
"Wind Release! Great Breakthrough!"
"Fire Release! Fire Dragon Bullet!"
"Compound Ninjutsu..."
"Great Fire and Wind Bullet!"
In an instant, fire fueled the wind, and wind fueled the fire. Sarutobi Asuma's compound ninjutsu instantly transformed into a raging fire dragon carried by a fierce wind, rolling towards Yagami like a burning tornado!
Yagamk couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
As expected of Lord Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi's own son...
Although he didn't know how much power he had inherited, but...
At least he possessed Wind Release, Fire Release, and perhaps more elements, and...
He could also integrate them so perfectly, forming his own unique compound ninjutsu.
Adding to that, he could also channel Chakra into his samurai sword, creating an ability similar to Shimura Danzo's Wind Release: Vacuum Blade...
Sarutobi Asuma was indeed quite powerful!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the head of Anbu, known as Lord Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi's right-hand man!
But Yagami also understood that no matter how powerful a ninjutsu was, it was meaningless if it couldn't hit the target.
He had pushed his Sharingan's power to the limit. In terms of perception alone, there was probably no one in the entire Shinobi World who could surpass him!
In an instant, Yagami had evaded the furious assault.
The compound ninjutsu, Great Fire and Wind Bullet, only struck the rocks and trees behind him, causing the ground to collapse and mountains to crumble, sending sand and stones flying. The giant rocks shattered instantly, and the large tree turned to ash and dust in an instant!
Yagami's movements didn't stop for a moment, because behind the Great Fire and Wind Bullet, a storm of shuriken and other ninja tools rained down!
But for him, this kind of attack relying on sheer numbers was meaningless.
Yagami's three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly, its blood-red light flashing. His body moved like lightning, like a stream of light, like the wind's breath, effortlessly weaving through the violent onslaught, dodging most of the attacks.
In the next instant, his False Darkness Blade, once again breaking through all attacks, fiercely slashed towards Sarutobi Yagami alone!
No matter how chaotic the enemy's attacks were, Yagami only focused on this culprit!
Sarutobi Shinnosuke was also enraged, his Wind Release: Vacuum Blade countering Yagami's fierce attack!
Bang!
The blades of the two men clashed violently once more!
"Die!"
Both roared in unison, their immense power erupting. A clash of Ninja Body Technique was not just about Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, strength, and Chakra, but also about comprehensive judgment of perception, techniques, fighting will, experience, and wisdom!
Yagami's Chakra was slightly weaker due to the elemental disadvantage.
But he overpowered Sarutobi Asuma in terms of strength.
As for perception, he was far superior to Sarutobi Asuma!
In this close-quarters combat, Yagami clearly had the upper hand!
This was Yagami's fighting style.
No matter what type of ninja you are, no matter how much your strengths exceed mine...
I just need to dodge your attacks and pull you into the close-quarters combat I excel at...
Then I can secure victory!
And now, that was exactly the case.
Sarutobi Asuma, engaged in close combat with Yagami, gradually felt overwhelmed.
The opponent's Sharingan's perception was too powerful, putting him in danger countless times.
If it weren't for his years of combat experience and instincts...
He would have died many times over!
Moreover, since they were fighting in close quarters, the elite Anbu subordinates didn't dare to attack easily, fearing they might hit their own leader.
Clearly, this was also part of Yagami's plan!
"Damn bastard!"
"I swear I won't be human if I don't kill you today!"
However, the more enraged Sarutobi Asuma became, the more he fell into Yagami's rhythm.
Soon, Yagami's False Darkness Blade completely suppressed the opponent.
Amidst the flashing blood-red light of the Sharingan...
Yagami's samurai sword fiercely knocked away the opponent's blade, then fiercely flicked it, sending the Vacuum Blade flying!
Sarutobi Asuma thought, 'This is bad...'
But it was already too late.
Yagami's False Darkness Blade, combined with the Sharingan's power, accurately slashed down!
"No..."
Sarutobi Asuma didn't even have time to cry out...
The False Darkness Blade had already fallen!
At this very moment.
Three groups of people finally arrived.
Lord Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, rushing from the Hokage Office.
Elder Yashiro, who had arrived from the Police Force headquarters and met up with Uchiha Yakumi and others.
And...
Uchiha Fugaku, the head of the Uchiha Clan, who was being held by Anbu members and pushed forward to stop the conflict!
In a flash of lightning...
The three groups, led by three key figures, simultaneously cried out in shock!
"Yagami! Stop!"
In fact, Yagamk had already sensed their arrival.
Although Sarutobi Asuma was panicked and desperate, he sensed his father's Chakra at that instant and breathed a sigh of relief...
No matter what, as long as he was alive, there was still hope!
Could he really dare to kill his own son in front of his father, the Lord Hokage of Konoha Village?!
At this moment, in an instant, everyone's eyes were on Yagamk alone, on the blade that was raging with electric lightning...
Deep down, Yagami was very calm, only a single thought flashed through his mind...
Even if facing a thousand or ten thousand people, I will go forth.
The next moment.
He didn't hesitate, and his False Darkness Blade slashed down fiercely!
Pfft!
A cold gleam flashed, and electric light burst!
The samurai sword slashed down fiercely, piercing through Sarutobi Asuma's chest!
Then...
Boom!
Electric light exploded, along with his chest, creating a massive bloody hole!
Sarutobi Asuma's eyes were filled with confusion, as if he still didn't understand what had happened until this moment...
Then, along with his hollow chest, his lifeless body collapsed with a thud onto the wasteland in front of Anbu...
Sarutobi Asuma...
Was dead.
"No!!!"
Lord Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi's heartbreaking roar echoed throughout the sky of Konoha Village.
