Chapter 120: Ch.120 Counterattack
"How... how is this possible?"
The Root shinobi's expression turned to one of pure terror as he touched the signal flare that should have already been fired into the sky.
He stared at Uchiha Shinji, who was walking toward him. "You... did you cast a genjutsu on me?"
Shinji replied calmly, "You've finally noticed?"
"I underestimated you!"
In a panic, the Root shinobi decisively bit his tongue, sending a wave of sharp pain through his body. The jolt of agony cleared his foggy mind, helping him regain focus.
He immediately averted his gaze from Shinji's eyes and quickly pulled out the signal flare, firing it into the sky.
Whoosh...
Boom.
Shinji glanced up at the sky, where the flare exploded in the night.
Seeing the signal flare successfully sent, the Root shinobi sighed in relief. "I never thought a brat like you could possess such powerful dojutsu. But as long as I don't meet your gaze, your Sharingan won't be able to control me!"
