Meanwhile, at the Uchiha Clan Grounds.
Akali was still directing Naruto in the final bonus video shoot!
Based on the fact that the previous pure photo set sold like crazy.
This time, she was planning to release a photobook, the kind with a story.
The title was roughly: “The Story of How I Went to the Woods to Commit Suicide After Work, Only to Find a Fox Repaying My Kindness by Turning Into a Succubus Maid.”
Selling photobooks, you know how it is.
The standard edition only has the photo album, the deluxe edition includes a fox maid voice collection, and the collector’s edition not only has the voice lines but also animated videos.
With this 21st-century marketing strategy, if she didn’t drain the wallets of these Ninja World natives who only knew how to fight and had zero development in entertainment or technology, Akali would debut in the red-light district herself!
As for coming to the Uchiha Clan Grounds this time, it was just a coincidence.
Akali had originally intended to just shoot in the woods, but while looking for a scenic spot, she ended up wandering here.
However, she already had a need for indoor urban shots, so Akali didn’t leave.
But, just as she was shooting…
[ Ding, Emotion points from Naruto + 99! ]
[ Ding, Emotion points from Hiruzen Sarutobi + 99! ]
[ Ding, Emotion points from Yūgao Uzuki + 99! ]
[ Ding, Emotion points from Sasuke + 9999! ]
Among the array of 99 emotion points, the 9999 from Sasuke stood out like a sore thumb!
“Hmm, Sasuke?”
Akali paused.
She was a bit confused.
She had always known the Third Hokage was peeping at her with his crystal ball, and Yūgao Uzuki being the Anbu monitoring Naruto was normal, so she could overlook those, but where did Sasuke’s emotion points come from?
But she quickly understood!
Because, accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps.
From the street corner nearby, Sasuke rushed out with blood-red eyes and violent killing intent, instantly locking onto Akali and Naruto.
Clearly, Sasuke’s emotion points were because of them!
Anyone would be angry to find someone shooting suggestive videos in their home; that was normal.
But if that was the case…
Akali couldn’t help but look at Naruto beside her.

Make a loud noise to cover it up?
Wrong.
True shock leaves you speechless!
Just like Naruto right now!
Looking at the suddenly appearing Sasuke, Naruto, who had transformed into Naruko and was wearing a white silk maid outfit, stood frozen in place as if hit by a petrification spell!
[ Ding, Emotion points from Naruto + 99! ]
[ Ding, Emotion points from Naruto + 999! ]
[ Ding, Emotion points from Naruto + 9999! ]
Emotion points from Naruto flooded the screen!
Those frantically trembling azure eyes made one wonder if he was about to have a cyber-psychosis episode in the next second!
Therefore, to prevent Naruto from screaming “Destroy the world!” and instantly breaking the Nine-Tailed seal to take everyone down with him.
Akali hurriedly stepped forward, blocking the space between Sasuke and Naruto, cutting off Sasuke’s scrutinizing gaze!
This action directly shifted Sasuke’s gaze away from Naruto and onto Akali!
At this moment, confirming that the situation wasn’t as extreme as he had imagined, the killing intent on Sasuke diminished significantly.
In its place was a surge of fighting spirit!
With his Sharingan activated, Sasuke’s hands were itching, craving a fight!
He needed an opponent to test his strength!
So…
“Let me see just how much strength you’ve been hiding at school! Akali!”
Sasuke roared, raising his hand instantly!
“Swish, swish, swish!”
Three Kunai formed a perfect inverted triangle, instantly locking onto Akali’s three vital spots: her eyes and throat!
What was even more impressive was that although they were thrown one after another, they arrived simultaneously, making it impossible to counter them by timing the difference!
It’s no exaggeration to say that with this level of Kunai control, an average Chunin wouldn’t even be fit to tie Sasuke’s shoes, and even some Special Jonin with poor shurikenjutsu would have to choose to dodge.
And once you dodge, you lose the initiative!
Fortunately, Akali was not among that small group!
Although not as flashy or showy as Uchiha shurikenjutsu, Akali’s shurikenjutsu was also a signature skill!
Facing Sasuke’s attack, Akali similarly flicked three Kunai, the same inverted triangle formation, arriving simultaneously, tit-for-tat!
In Akali’s estimation, these three Kunai should be able to knock down Sasuke’s Kunai while continuing forward unabated, forcing Sasuke to move.
However, watching the collision about to happen, Sasuke’s eyes widened, and the black single tomoe spun rapidly!
“I see it!” Sasuke flicked his hand and threw two shuriken!
“Clang, clang, clatter, ding!”
Just as Akali’s Kunai knocked down Sasuke’s Kunai, two high-speed spinning shuriken arrived first despite being thrown later, cutting through the air.
Then, a shocking situation occurred!
Under the influence of Sasuke’s two shuriken, after a dazzling series of collisions, Sasuke’s knocked-down Kunai and the Kunai Akali had fired actually turned around together and flew toward Akali!
The six Kunai and two shuriken combined to form an inescapable net, closing in on Akali and Naruto!
Seeing this, Akali frowned slightly: “Is this the famous Uchiha shurikenjutsu? It’s truly something!”
“It seems I really have to bring out my real skills today!”
Facing the net closing in, Akali flipped her wrist, Chakra surged in her palm, and a Kunai made of condensed, deep-blue-black Chakra appeared.
And this is…
“My Style Secret Technique · Cold Shadow!”
An afterimage flashed by!
At a speed that even the Sharingan couldn’t clearly track, Akali threw one…
No, not one, but five!
In Sasuke’s shocked gaze, Akali’s Kunai seemed to know the Shadow Clone Technique, instantly multiplying from 1 to 5!
The five deep-blue-black Kunai, like five wild bulls, crashed into the inescapable net Sasuke had meticulously constructed with an incredibly brutal posture!
Then…
[ Ding, Emotion points from Sasuke + 999! ]
Sasuke’s shock turned into horror!
Because his Kunai and shuriken, sourced from the Ninja Cat workshop and ranked among the best in the entire Ninja World, were like fragile membranes, shattered completely before Akali’s hardness!
Crisp, clean, and violent!
Even in a great clan like the Uchiha, who were experts in ninja tools, Sasuke had never seen such a collision of ninja tools!
Sasuke was even very doubtful, was that really a ninja tool?
However, there was no time for Sasuke to ponder or be confused!
Because after shattering Sasuke’s ninja tools, Akali’s Kunai continued forward with undiminished momentum!
In the split second Sasuke was stunned, they arrived right in front of him!
His blood-red Sharingan reflected the deep-blue-black Kunai!
Sasuke had nowhere to dodge!
