Chapter 176 - Chapter 176: Escalation of the Battle

A tremendous shockwave spread in all directions, violently disturbing the winds throughout the entire surrounding region as a result of the fierce collision between Leon's punch on one side and the crossed swords of Ishin and Hiroshi, who had taken a joint defensive stance on the other. The ground beneath them cracked from the force of the impact, and the air trembled violently.

Leon looked at the two young men before him and praised them.

"Well done. Blocking that attack together in a coordinated manner was the right choice. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for either of you to stop it directly on your own without relying on much stronger defensive techniques."

He genuinely appreciated their intelligence in using teamwork to compensate for the lack of individual power. In truth, because the power system of this world relied heavily on chakra and on enhancing physical abilities through chakra, most ninja and warriors paid very little attention to improving their raw physical strength without using chakra. Even when some of them trained their bodies and developed their close-combat abilities through taijutsu, they usually neglected a very important aspect: the physical durability and toughness of the body itself. Dan had recognized this from the very beginning as a dangerous and potentially fatal weakness when he first arrived in this world and started his early training.

Because of that, he designed his training system from the start to completely eliminate that flaw and make his body extraordinarily durable without relying solely on chakra.

The same principle was applied to the training of his children and descendants. Thanks to the strict and carefully designed training system he had established within the family from the very beginning, all of them possessed tremendous physical durability.

At his current level, Leon could easily fight against sharp swords with his bare hands. His body was many times tougher and more resilient than steel itself.

Of course, that did not mean his body could never be pierced or injured. It simply meant that doing so was extremely difficult and required opponents powerful enough to focus a large amount of force into a single point in order to penetrate his natural defenses.

BOOOOOOM!

The three fighters separated from their latest clash and moved several meters apart, preparing for the next round.

Leon spoke excitedly, wearing a broad smile filled with anticipation.

"Alright! Let's raise the level of this battle even higher now!"

It was obvious that he wanted to see more of their true strength.

At the same moment, Hiroshi Uchiha's eyes changed from the ordinary Sharingan into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Its unique five-pointed star pattern slowly rotated within his crimson eyes.

Meanwhile, a massive aura of dense and heavy chakra instantly erupted around Ishin. The pressure was so immense that cracks spread outward from beneath his feet.

Then Hiroshi vanished from his position at incredible speed. He had activated the special ability of his Mangekyo, a power similar to his father's that increased his physical speed to ten times his normal level. More importantly, he no longer needed to fear the gradual blindness suffered by ordinary Mangekyo users. And even if he were to lose his sight, it no longer mattered.

This was his final battle in this world.

DIIING! DIIING! DIIING!

The sharp sound of metal collisions spread across the battlefield at astonishing speed as sparks flew in every direction. Hiroshi's sword repeatedly collided with Leon's body while Leon blocked the attacks with his bare hands. Hundreds of strikes were exchanged within a single second. Hiroshi's blade flashed from every angle and direction while Leon deflected them all with incredible precision and skill.

Then, while enjoying the fast-paced battle with Hiroshi, Leon suddenly felt his combat instincts warn him of an attack coming from directly beneath him. He immediately leaped high into the air, and enormous sharp wooden pillars instantly erupted from the ground below.

However, the wooden pillars did not stop at the ground. They rapidly pursued him upward, forcing him to spin through the air and evade them with smooth, flowing movements.

Then he sensed yet another attack.

Turning around, he saw a sharp wooden pillar shooting toward his back.

Leon instantly twisted through the air and threw a powerful punch that shattered the pillar into countless fragments while laughing loudly and clearly enjoying the fight.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! What a truly enjoyable day! What a wonderful challenge!"

His voice, filled with excitement and joy, echoed throughout the battlefield and the surrounding regions.

Everyone watching from both sides heard him clearly.

His enthusiastic laughter revealed just how much he was enjoying this battle.

His brothers smiled when they heard his familiar laugh.

"It's been a long time since we last heard him laugh like that."

Norman nodded in agreement.

"Yes. Those two are genuinely giving him an enjoyable battle."

Meanwhile, Sato carefully analyzed the ongoing fight and commented,

"Their coordination is forcing him to use more strength and concentration. That alone is a remarkable achievement."

The members of the Uchiha and Senju clans, watching from another location, looked on with pride and a small spark of hope despite knowing the inevitable outcome. Seeing their patriarchs fight with such courage and skill and force their powerful opponent to acknowledge their strength was an incredibly honorable sight for all of them.

The wooden pillars continued erupting from every direction, attempting to trap Leon in the air. Ishin controlled them with exceptional skill and directed them with astonishing precision. At the same time, Hiroshi never stopped attacking. He leaped through the air and struck at Leon from countless angles, pushing his tenfold speed enhancement to its absolute limit.

The coordination between them was nearly perfect. Ishin created chaos and pressure with his countless wooden pillars, forcing Leon into specific positions and movements in the air, while Hiroshi exploited those moments to attack from vulnerable angles with lightning-fast strikes.

Leon continued laughing as he dodged the attacks with smooth movements and blocked the sword strikes with his bare hands. His body moved through the air with complete freedom.

Yet despite how much he was enjoying himself, he respected his opponents and appreciated the tremendous effort they were putting into the battle. Because of that, he decided to raise his level slightly and make the fight even more exciting.
