A day had passed, the brothers had still maintained their daily routine and trained rigorously.
At night time, Sasuke was looking at Shin with shame in his eyes.
" I can't do it Shin.. "
Sasuke was ashamed, Shin just gave him a jutsu developed by him from his Mangekyou ability.
Training ground jutsu, Shin's own creation.
But he couldn't do it! His illusion abilities were never good, nowhere close of his father, Itachi and Shin.
And this illusion was a whole lot of work.
" It's too difficult, I can't control it.. "
Shin sighed, Sasuke had zero success with this justu, he even packaged it as his own creation and not Itachi's so Sasuke at least uses the thing, but no luck.
" It's alright, you can try again, illusion is not your strong point anyway, ninjutsu is, concentrate on that until then. "
There was a reason Shinnosuke never trained Sasuke until now, that was because Sasuke was too extreme.
The moment he gains strength he lets loose and almost dies.
This was his brother's nature and bad habit, throughout the show, Sasuke was always beaten down mercilessly the moment he gained some strength.
Why? Because he overestimated himself and went to fight against big bosses again and again.
" Yes Shin, I'll try again. "
As Sasuke kept attempting the jutsu, Shin started training on his own.
Sasuke was never much of an illusion ninja, his best feat from the show was passively resisting Infinite Tsukuyomi, and that was a passive ability of his eyes, not something he did on his own.
" Genjutsu Sharingan, training ground. "
Getting back at his grind Shin thought of Sasuke's second best attempt.
' His second big moment was getting an almost dead Orochimaru in illusion, which Orochimaru faked getting killed by anyway and hid in Sasuke's body. '
Hell, that was almost like Sasuke was in Orochimaru's illusion, his Sharingan mastery was just that trash that he couldn't even see Orochimaru's soul sitting snugly in his body.
' Itachi saw that shit as soon as he saw the curse seal, and he saw that while he was almost blind! '
Shin shook his head as he smiled wryly.
The more he thought about Itachi, the more desparate he felt, if Itachi had even a fraction of the dedication and time Shin was putting into getting stronger, Madara truly might not be a problem for the man.
" Anyway, enough about my disappointment of a younger brother and outrageous older brother, it's time I concentrate on the middle brother, me. "
Shinnosuke will still train Sasuke, that's because Shin had managed to cut down the dude's hatred significantly in the past few years.
But he will do it at his own pace, Hokage, Danzo and the whole village upper level wanted to kill Shin,
Currently Sasuke was fine, being a Sharingan less naive child, but if Sasuke starts to look like a threat, they will directly eliminate him.
Sasuke wasn't a smart man, he will get into people's schemes easily, Itachi, Orochimaru, Obito, so many had manipulated him his entire life it's wasn't even funny.
So, weakness was the best protection Shin could provide Sasuke right now.
* Whoosh *
As Shin was slashing his tanto, he was sweating and wondering why this village was so shit.
" I swear if big brother Itachi wasn't around we would be so dead.. I really want to go the land of lightining, Raikage is so much better, much rather live there than this stupid place. "
Shin was muttering as he was frantically slashing at fourth Raikage, A.
Who was tanking the attacks like a champ and trying of hell stab Shin.
" Nope. "
Said Shin as his arm transformed into a laser canon
* Zooooom *
And blasted the Raikage straight in his face.
* Booom *
Who was blown away uncontrollably and only stopped as he hit a mountain, his body digging into it as he spit out blood.
" Paths of pain are fun to use.. "
Laughed Shin as his mouth turned metallic and his chin opened up.
" This. Is. The. Best. "
Shin spoke in a robotic voice, it was hilarious how cool this ability of rinnegan was.
Anything you can think of, it will make for you, you can transform into any weapon imaginable, no limits.
" I have a feeling this is going to be my most used ability. "
Smiled Shin as his feet turned into thrusters
* Whoosh *
And he flew up, overlooking the entire mountain range.
* Crunch click *
* Clang *
His body changed as Shin was turning both his arms into gigantic laser canons, he was about to rain down on the recovering fourth Raikage.
* Zooom *
* Zooom *
Laughing happily Shin started firing huge energy beams as the mountain and surrounding environment was savagely blown away.
" Ahahaha! "
The mad laughter fit Shin was having was uncovering his inner Uchiha again.
Shin always managed to keep his Uchiha insanity in check, but once a while, it leaked out, and now was one of those times.
" What's the matter fourth, get up! Come on! Don't keep me waiting! "
* Zoooom *
But the attacks never stopped, Shin was not giving the fourth Raikage any chance at all.
" Tch, you are a tough man. "
Shin clicked his tongue as the laser canons powered down, he was out of chakra, the paths weren't so easy to use.
" Hell stab "
* Click *
Shinnosuke swiftly blocked as his metallic arms cracked, Raikage was before him in a slipt second.
His cold emotionless voice in which he announced his attack still ringing in Shin's mind as his body hit the ground.
* Booom *
Shinnosuke was lying inside a deep gully. His body looking machine like as the broken parts slowly joined back together.
" This power is amazing. No broken bones for me. "
Shin smiled as he got up slowly, looking at his opponent, who was looking at him with an emotionless gaze, Shin knew this was going to be a long fight.
" Alright, let's continue. "
Shin laughed happily, he was having a lot of fun.
