Chapter 16 : Shisui of the Body Flicker!!
"Want to see the difference between us?"
Uchiha Shisui narrowed his eyes, surprised by Itachi's challenge. After witnessing the loss of his friends in Third Ninja World War and having unlocked the Mangekyō Sharingan, Shisui didn't expect Itachi to want a fight.
[The manga and anime never explained how Shisui got his Mangekyō Sharingan, but it must have been due to the Third Ninja World War!]
Shisui shook his head. "There's no need for a test. You're not my opponent!"
Though Itachi was a prodigy, Shisui felt he was still lacking.
"I want to try. I need to see how far behind I am so I can improve!" Itachi said seriously, determination clear on his face. "Without a goal, my progress will stall!"
Shisui saw Itachi's serious expression and sighed. "Now?"
"Yes!" Itachi nodded firmly, stepping back and preparing to fight. "Don't hold back. I need to understand the difference between us so I can get stronger!"
A kunai appeared in Itachi's hand, ready for action.
"Let's start!" Shisui agreed, growing serious himself. He wanted Itachi to recognize his current strength, especially since Itachi would be joining Anbu soon.
Swish, swish, swish~
