Naruto: Reincarnated as Sasuke Uchiha with Perfect Talents.

The Fourth Kazekage and the Fourth Mizukage were forcefully suppressed by Sasuke, completely disrupting Orochimaru's rhythm.

At this moment, Orochimaru, holding the Kusanagi Sword, was at a loss for what to do.

With just his own power, he didn't believe he could handle Sasuke—not even others would believe it.

The strength Sasuke had displayed was something Orochimaru could now clearly feel.

It was a level of combat prowess even more overwhelming than when he had faced his teacher, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. It was a suffocating, terrifying pressure.

At this moment, the flickering lightning, the flashing thunder, and the roaring thunderclaps began to resonate.

In the distance, Sasuke's body was slightly hunched, his left hand resting on the hilt of his Zanpakutō, while his right hand hovered lightly above it.

His breathing was rhythmic, adjusting steadily.

Thunder Breathing! 

Seventh Form! 

Fire Thunder God!

Sasuke raised his head and opened his eyes.

In an instant, astonishing lightning erupted from his body.

Within the black thunder, a brilliant golden light flashed.

The lightning formed into a black dragon in the blink of an eye.

As it roared, Sasuke charged straight at Orochimaru.

In that moment, the wind seemed to breathe, and the lightning flashed.

Yet, no sound could be heard.

The speed of the strike was so fast that it seemed to create a sonic boom, drowning out all other noises.

The black blade of Sasuke's Kusanagi Sword, coated with black lightning, appeared before Orochimaru's eyes like a spider's thread.

The sharp blade emitted a terrifying cold light.

Orochimaru couldn't help but swallow hard.

In a flash, he dropped the Kusanagi Sword and raised his hands.

"I surrender!"

Whoosh!

The blade swept past, the metallic clang of the sword reverberating throughout the space.

Sasuke's figure appeared behind Orochimaru in the same instant.

At the same time, Orochimaru's sword fell to the ground, piercing straight into the earth.

The ground cracked, and a clean cut extended from Sasuke's position forward, stretching nearly a hundred meters until it reached the Four Violet Flames Formation barrier.

A white light flashed, and the barrier was sliced open, leaving a massive gap.

The Sound Four, who were maintaining the barrier, were utterly shaken.

They could clearly feel the terrifying power of that strike.

The moment the attack hit, nearly two-thirds of their chakra was drained instantly.

Even the Four Violet Flames Formation barrier had been cut open by a single slash.

Although it was slowly recovering, it was more than enough for Sasuke to escape the barrier.

If the attack had been directed at any one of them, they would have died instantly, and the barrier would have been broken.

One slash.

One person.

The barrier was effortlessly shattered. Just how terrifying had Sasuke become?

Orochimaru turned to look at Sasuke, watching as he calmly sheathed his sword.

He then glanced at the gaping hole in the Four Violet Flames Formation.

Orochimaru swallowed nervously.

If Sasuke had combined this Lightning Release ninjutsu with the Eight Gates, the power would have been unimaginable.

Orochimaru couldn't even begin to picture it.

"Are you satisfied now?" Sasuke asked as he put away the Kusanagi Sword and turned to face Orochimaru.

Orochimaru smiled wryly.

"Well, now that my hands are restored, I had to test how well they've recovered."

Sasuke was speechless at this explanation.

Orochimaru had genuinely wanted to try to take over his body, but even if he failed, it didn't seem to bother him.

*[Congratulations, host, for defeating one of the Sannin, Orochimaru.]*

*[Reward: Upgrade one ninjutsu category by one level.]*

*[Due to the inclusion of the reanimated Fourth Kazekage and Fourth Mizukage in this battle, additional rewards have been granted.]*

*[Additional Reward: Water Release and Wind Release chakra nature transformations have been upgraded by one level.]*

Just as Sasuke was about to criticize Orochimaru, he saw the system's rewards and couldn't help but smile.

He could get so many rewards just by defeating Orochimaru? Strictly speaking, he hadn't just defeated Orochimaru alone, but this reward came at the perfect time.

It meant he could finally complete his other learning task.

With the upgrades to Water Release and Wind Release nature transformations, he had met the requirement of raising all basic nature transformations to level three.

Now, he could... upgrade his Yin-Yang Release.

*[Chakra Attributes: Water (47%/3↑), Fire (21%/3), Lightning (MAX), Earth (13%/3), Wind (8%/3↑), Yin (29%/2), Yang (3%/2)]*

Additionally, he could choose to upgrade one ninjutsu category by one level.

Sasuke glanced at his current ninjutsu.

The best choice was naturally Lightning Release, as his Lightning Release nature transformation had already reached its peak.

His Lightning Release ninjutsu hadn't yet reached their maximum potential, so they could still be improved.

Upgrade Lightning Release!

*[Lightning Release: Chidori (Extreme↑), Chidori Stream (Extreme↑), Chidori Blade (Achieved↑), Godspeed (Great↑), Lightning Clone Technique (Great↑), Discharge (Extreme), Lightning Body Flicker (Great↑), Endless Lightning Pool (Great↑), Web of the Mind (Great↑), Chidori Sharp Spear (Great↑)]*

Apart from Discharge, which was already at the extreme level, all other Lightning Release techniques had been upgraded.

While the upgrades for other techniques mainly increased their power, the upgrades to Godspeed, Lightning Pool, and Web of the Mind felt particularly significant.

Especially Web of the Mind.

After reaching the Great level, it felt as if Sasuke had gained a passive ability to sense the emotions and thoughts of those around him.

It was a strange yet fascinating sensation.

But that wasn't all.

*[Congratulations, host, for raising all five basic chakra nature transformations to level three.]*

*[Reward: Yin-Yang Release nature transformation levels have been upgraded.]*

*[Chakra Attributes: Yin (29%/3↑), Yang (3%/3↑)]*

The upgrade to Yin-Yang Release brought about a completely different change.

The most noticeable improvements were in his physical and spiritual energy.

It felt as if he had been given a new body, light and full of energy, as though a heavy burden had been lifted.

The most significant change was in the Yin-Yang Release: Creation Technique. Sasuke looked down at his hands, where faint patterns of the sun and moon appeared on his palms.

If I had reached this level earlier, I could have healed a destroyed heart instantly...

It was a pity that when Jiraiya died, Sasuke's Yin-Yang techniques hadn't yet reached this level.
