Chapter 652: Where Did You Get That Black Eye?
"Teleportation?"
"No—!"
"He shrank!"
Isshiki’s eyes narrowed sharply, initially thinking Minato had used Hiraishin no Jutsu again, but he instantly sensed something off. He was too familiar with his Sukunahikona dōjutsu. Clearly, Minato hadn’t teleported—he’d shrunk!
*KLANG!*
A sharp metallic clash rang out. Minato returned to normal size before Isshiki, thrusting a special kunai at his forehead.
Isshiki’s combat experience and reflexes weren’t weak. In a split second, he activated Sukunahikona, enlarging dozens of pre-shrunk black rods scattered around, forming a sturdy barrier around his head that blocked Minato’s lethal strike.
But the kunai thrust was merely Minato’s feint, meant to draw Isshiki’s attention and maneuver to his side.
Ordinarily, Minato couldn’t breach Isshiki’s front; getting close risked being crushed in one blow. Isshiki’s Stage Two Kama mode strength could shatter even perfect Susano’o!
Sukunahikona was indeed highly effective, dodging most attacks...
After closing in, Minato scattered countless pre-shrunk black rods of his own around the space.
*SWISH!* *SWISH!* *SWISH!*
