Relying purely on instinct, he barely managed to dodge the sudden onslaught of those blaring blades of fire. Yet this also cost him his final chance at escape. Uchiha Chi did not give Uchiha Rengka any breathing room; exploiting the opening created by the flame blades, he instantly closed the distance right in front of Uchiha Rengka.
In close quarters combat, Uchiha Chi's Kenjutsu finally revealed its true terrifying power. Uchiha Rengka had no way to counterattack whatsoever, because Uchiha Chi's blade speed, amplified by the Body Flicker Technique, had already surpassed his reaction time. In the end, Uchiha Rengka was defeated.
After his defeat, Uchiha Rengka could not help but recall his high spirits when setting out this morning. Yet before noon had even arrived, reality dealt him a heavy blow, causing a surge of loss and frustration to well up in his heart.
