"This will never end, will it?": Fugaku asked tired out with the author's antics.

"Hahaha, no it won't.": the Bailed says while laughing like a maniac.

"Let's start today's silly advertising sketch.": Fugaku said with resignation.

Fugaku: "Dude, I just spent all my savings on supporting my favorite writer. Am I crazy?"

Bailed: "Nah man, you're just investing in your entertainment portfolio. It's like buying stocks, but way more fun. Plus, you get to see your investments pay off in real-time."

Fugaku: "I guess you're right. But what if my Writer doesn't become the next CORNBRINGER or El_Don?"

Bailed: "Then we'll just have to start our own writing project and become the next big thing ourselves. We'll call it 'Two Dudes, One Couch, and Some Insanity', and we'll talk about epic stuff while eating pizza and playing video games."

Fugaku: "I don't know if anyone would want to read that..."

Bailed: "Are you kidding me? That's prime content right there. We'll be swimming in donations and sponsorships before you know it. All thanks to your initial investment in our entertainment empire."

Fugaku: "I like the sound of that. Let's do it!"

Bailed: "That's the spirit! Now let's order some pizza and get to work on our first writing."

The Jōnin, now alone and facing Fugaku, raised his hands in a defensive posture, but his eyes met the spinning Sharingan and he froze, completely under its spell. Fugaku saw the momentary hesitation and seized the opportunity to strike.

He threw Shuriken at the Jōnin just to test him out.

As the Shuriken flew towards the Suna Shinōbi Jōnin, he effortlessly blocked them with a smirk on his face. "Uchiha clansman of 3-Tomoe, it seems Konoha is also interested in the situation and is now sending troops to the Land of Rain," he taunted Fugaku.

Fugaku paid no attention to the taunting words of his opponent. Instead, he replied with a chilling retort: "Why waste words on a dying man?".

Without wasting another moment, Fugaku threw Shuriken out in a row from his hand, each one aimed at a different part of the Jōnin. The speed of his fingers was insane, his hands were leaving behind afterimages, leaving the opponent barely any time to react.

But Fugaku wasn't done yet. "Fire Release, Hōsenka no Jutsu," he shouted, and immediately after the Shuriken, one after another fire stars squirted out of his mouth, creating a fiery rain that engulfed the battlefield. The flames danced wildly, reflecting in Fugaku's eyes as he waited for his opponent's next move.

The Hōsenka no Jutsu, or Fire Release: Mythical Fire Flower Technique, is a basic fire release jutsu used by many shinobi. It creates multiple small fireballs that can be launched at the target or used to create a wall of fire. The user can control the number and direction of the fireballs, making it a versatile jutsu that can be used for both offensive and defensive purposes.

The battle between the Sunagakure Jōnin and Uchiha Fugaku was a fierce and intense exchange of deadly techniques. Fugaku was a skilled warrior with a calm demeanor and sharp instincts, making him a formidable opponent. The Jonin from Sunagakure was no pushover either and had his own set of tricks up his sleeve.

The Sunagakure Jōnin who was trapped in the circle of fire managed to break free by using the Body Flicker Jutsu, jumping out of the circle of flames. He quickly realized that he needed to escape if he wanted to survive.

However, Uchiha Fugaku was not one to be easily deterred. He swiftly threw several shurikens and followed the Jonin closely.

Suddenly, the Jonin hurled a massive wind blade towards Fugaku, who instead of blocking it, jumped over it with acrobatic ease, by jumping over the wind blade with an impressive display of agility, Fugaku avoided the deadly attack.

The wind blade sliced through a nearby tree, chopping it into pieces like a hot knife through butter.

The fight continued at a breakneck pace, with Fugaku's Sharingan spinning rapidly to keep track of the Jonin's every move. The Jonin, on the other hand, used his unique techniques to gain the upper hand.

The Sunagakure Jōnin was undoubtedly one of Sunagakure's finest. Despite being repeatedly caught in Genjuts's, he repeatedly managed to break out of the trance, he fought with an unwavering determination, his strikes relentless and unstoppable. The clash of weapons echoed through the night, sending sparks flying into the dark sky. As the battle raged on, however, the Jōnin began to show signs of fatigue.

Fugaku knew that the cover of darkness was an Uchiha's greatest ally. Though his opponent may have been stronger, Fugaku's Sharingan and the element of surprise gave him the upper hand. Soon, scars began to appear on the Jōnin's body, evidence of the Uchiha's growing advantage.

As the anesthesia on Fugaku's weapon began to take effect, the Jōnin's movements began to slow down, his mind growing hazy. Despite the overwhelming odds against him, the Jōnin refused to give in. "You son of a bitch!" he spat, his voice laced with anger and defiance. "You coated your weapons with anesthesia. It seems you want to capture me and extract information, but you're overestimating yourself and underestimating the will of a Suna Shinobi!"

The Sunagakure Jōnin blocked Fugaku's attacks and realized that he had no other choice but to take his own life in this situation. His left hand moved towards his heart, ready to end it all.

But Fugaku's enhanced Sharingan allowed him to perceive the Jonin's movements in slow motion. He quickly used Genjutsu once more, causing the Jonin's hand to freeze for a moment. It was just enough time for Fugaku to catch the opponent's wrist and stop his suicide attempt.

The Sunagakure Jōnin, who had been anesthetized, had completely lost his resistance. His eyes had lost all their will, and he was now at Fugaku's mercy.

Fugaku's 3-Tomoe Sharingan bore down intensely on the Suna Shinobi's gaze. His Genjutsu launched relentlessly, seeking to gain complete control over his captive.

"Tell me, who is your commander?" Fugaku demanded, his voice laced with a deadly edge. "And how many of your comrades have been sent to infiltrate the Land of Rain?"

The question struck a nerve with the captive, and he writhed under the effects of the Genjutsu, his expression a mask of confusion.

Fugaku was not one to be easily deterred. He strengthened the intensity of his Genjutsu, his Sharingan spinning furiously. The captive's expression became sluggish once more, as Fugaku continued to press him for information.

Fugaku's skills and abilities proved to be too much for the Jonin to handle. In the end, Fugaku's mastery of Genjutsu proved to be the deciding factor, as he trapped the Jonin in an illusion that broke his fighting spirit, and gave Fugaku a moment of respite.

Fugaku knew that in a ninja battle, hesitation could mean death. Throughout the fight he didn't waste any time on banter, knowing that actions spoke louder than words in this game of life and death. Despite the intensity of the battle, Fugaku remained calm and composed throughout. The Jonin fought valiantly, but in the end, Fugaku emerged victorious, his skills as a warrior unmatched by his opponent.

Fugaku felt a rush of adrenaline as he stood there, surveying the scene. He knew that he had basically won at this point, and his confidence swelled. But he also knew that he had to be careful, that there were likely more enemies nearby, waiting to strike.
