"This guy has controlled the Three-Tails!!! Everyone be careful!!!!" Mei Terumi shouted loudly, her eyes fixed grimly on the masked man.

"It's rumored the Sharingan possesses the power to manipulate Tailed Beasts. I originally thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true!!" Ao stared in shock at the three-tomoe pattern in the Three-Tails' eye.

Controlling a Tailed Beast with the Sharingan and manipulating the Fourth Mizukage with the Sharingan are actually not the same. Although both involve the use of pupil power, they cannot be generalized.

Manipulating others with the Sharingan is merely using pupil power to cast a genjutsu, causing the person's consciousness to fall under the Sharingan's illusion, thereby gaining control of their body. Manipulating a Tailed Beast, however, is completely different.

It involves directly using powerful pupil power to suppress the Tailed Beast's consciousness and thus control it. It can be said that the latter is much more difficult than the former; it's entirely a manifestation of pupil power. The change in the Tailed Beast's eyes when controlled is proof of this.

Therefore, while there are many ninjas within the Uchiha clan who can use the Sharingan to cast genjutsu, those capable of manipulating Tailed Beasts are exceedingly few.

"Hehe, the Three-Tails cannot be handed over to you," the masked man sneered at the crowd. "Go to hell!!!" Chojuro instantly appeared beside the masked man, his giant Hiramekarei already released, swinging fiercely towards him.

The masked man sneered, his body making no evasive movements. The giant Hiramekarei, carrying a blue, ferocious chakra, passed straight through the masked man's body.

"What!!!" Everyone's expression changed drastically. Su Yue's Sharingan also stared intently at the masked man. The masked man sneered again and, taking advantage of Chojuro's inability to retract his move, kicked him ruthlessly in the abdomen.

"Argh!!!" With a miserable cry, Chojuro's body was sent flying by the fierce kick, landing heavily in front of everyone. "Chojuro!!~`!'" Ao immediately rushed forward to help Chojuro up. Chojuro's body was bent over, trembling slightly. Clearly, the force of that kick was immense; Chojuro couldn't stand up for the moment.

"How did he dodge that just now?" a ninja asked a companion with some confusion. "I didn't see clearly either. It's like he didn't dodge at all," his companion also said, bewildered.

"Did you see it?" Mei Terumi smiled at Su Yue beside her, then asked. "He didn't dodge at all. Hiramekarei passed straight through his body. If he had made any movement, he definitely wouldn't have escaped my Sharingan!!!" Su Yue said gravely.

"So, you're saying this person made his body intangible in that instant?" Mei Terumi said in a low voice. "Correct. His body didn't move at all, yet the attack passed right through it. This is the only explanation," Su Yue replied, a hint of confusion also in his eyes.

Seeing such an eerie masked man, the crowd dared not act rashly for a moment. "Heh, I'll be taking the Three-Tails then," the masked man sneered, then slowly turned around. "Damn it!! We can't let him take the Three-Tails like this!!" Ao said coldly, his hands preparing to form seals.

Just then, Su Yue moved, lunging towards the masked man like lightning. The Rasengan in his hand instantly formed and struck fiercely at the masked man's back.

Exactly like the situation just moments before, the Rasengan hit the masked man's back, but it was as if it struck empty air. The person was clearly there, yet nothing was hit. The Rasengan, carrying Su Yue's body, passed straight through the masked man.

"Hmph!!!" The masked man sneered. A kunai had appeared in his hand at some unknown point. The instant Su Yue passed through his body, he fiercely stabbed at Su Yue's vital point – the back of his neck. If this strike hit, Su Yue would undoubtedly die.

"Clang!!!!" Amidst the crowd's horrified gazes, the kunai fiercely stabbed into Su Yue's neck, but the Sharingan beneath the masked man's eyehole narrowed slightly. Not good! This is a clone!!!

Simultaneously, an incomparably sharp, blue-glowing sword thrust towards the masked man from the other side like lightning, its speed electrifying. The masked man had no time to dodge. "Not good!!!" The masked man was startled. "Clang!!" With a crisp sound, the masked man narrowly avoided the sword of light, but his left arm was still cut. Fresh blood dripped from his black robe onto the water surface.

And the Su Yue who had been stabbed by the masked man instantly dissipated into a puff of smoke; it was a shadow clone. The masked man clutched his injured left arm, the crimson Sharingan in his eyehole staring coldly at Su Yue as he asked gravely, "...When was it? In front of my Sharingan, you shouldn't have had a chance to use a shadow clone."

"Hmph, in front of your Sharingan, I indeed didn't have a chance to use a shadow clone. But you were too arrogant. Relying on that intangibility ability, you actually left your back exposed to me. That's a major taboo for a ninja. And the Sharingan isn't the Byakugan; no matter how strong its insight, it can't see what's happening behind, right?" Su Yue said with a cold smile.

"So that's how it is. You used a shadow clone the moment I turned around, and then immediately used Rasengan to confuse me. Such fast hand seal speed," the masked man said coldly.

"It was just a guess initially. I didn't expect it to actually be effective," Su Yue said lightly. "What's going on!!!?" Only then did the crowd react. That masked man clearly had an intangibility ability, yet he was injured at this moment.

(Understood) "Everyone, don't be nervous. This guy's ability isn't perfect either. Everything has two sides. Although his intangibility can evade physical and ninjutsu attacks, at the same time, he cannot attack others.

If he wants to attack others, then he must become tangible. At that moment, others can also attack him. This is the risk of his ability," Su Yue stared intently at the masked man. "I wonder if what I said is correct?"

"So that's how it is." The crowd reacted instantly, recalling the previous events. It seemed this was indeed the principle. When the opponent's body was intangible, although he couldn't be attacked, his intangible body naturally couldn't launch a physical attack either.

"But no matter what, this ability is still quite terrifying. It practically puts him in an invincible position," Mei Terumi said gravely.
