Interlude
(*Cues: Wiz & Boomstick - Brandon Yates*)

Wiz: They're grim, nihilistic, and dreadfully ominous even when they fight on the side of good, they'll never crack a smile or share in their reward.

Boomstick: Oh great, we're talking about edgelords, aren't we?

Wiz: Sasuke, rival to Naruto Uzumaki and the solitary survivor of the Uchiha clan.

'''Boomstick: And Hiei, rival to Yusuke Urameshi and lonely orphan to demons. Neat. He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.'''

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.

Sasuke Uchiha
Wiz: The Uchiha Clan was renowned for their incredible ability in battle. Despite being one of the founding families of the Hidden Leaf Village, Konoha, the Uchiha were outcasts and cut off.

'''Boomstick: For good reason! Their people have gotten pretty famous for attacking in the village with the big Nine-Tailed Fox. So, not a good look.'''

Wiz: But everything changed with the head of the clan's first-born son, Itachi. He was a brilliant boy and a promising future for the family.

'''Boomstick: Even becoming the youngest kid to ever graduate ninja school. I went there for a bit, but then I learned they didn't use guns. So...y'know.'''

Wiz: But Itachi opposed the clan's latest plot for a coup. His response was... well, pretty clear cut.

'''Boomstick: I'll say! He went and murdered all of them, every last one. Except for his kid brother, Sasuke. Naturally, Sasuke was pretty pissed off that his big bro killed his whole family, so he swore to become the bestest Shinobi ever and hunt Itachi down. Probably should've let him in on the plan there, Ichi.'''

Wiz: Just like his brother, Sasuke soared through his schooling with flying colors, quickly learning the three primary kinds of Jutsu, or ninja techniques.

Boomstick: Ninjutsu, which is basically magic spells, Genjutsu, which messes with the mind, and Taijutsu, the one where you just punch people.

Wiz: While Sasuke impressed with inhuman speed, swordsmanship, and physical ferocity, he's mastered several powerful Ninjutsu techniques.

Boomstick: Like belching his classic fire breath, making up to eight shadow clones of himself, and the Chidori, a ball of frigging lightning that has some shocking effects.

Wiz: Plus, many more. In along the path of revenge, he spent much of his time perfecting and improving these techniques, even mastering lightning release to the point of casting Kirin, an electric strike in a shape of a dragon.

Boomstick: Divine intervention 2.0., smiting your foes is the way to go!

Wiz: He can infuse his abilities with any of the five elements. Fire, Wind, Earth, Water-

Boomstick: Heart!

Planeteers: Go Planet!

Wiz: No, no, Lightning. Obviously.

Boomstick: Aww.

Wiz: As well as Yin Release, an element of creation itself.

'''Boomstick: So basically, don't make fun of Sasuke to his face, cause he'll kill the shit out of you before you know what's happening. And we haven't even covered his best weapon yet.'''

Wiz: Right.

''Sasuke: If anyone who criticizes my way of life for to come foward. I turn around and kill every single one of their loved ones. So that they too can grasp for what it's like to experience this hatred of mine.''

Hiei
Wiz: Standing less than five feet tall, this black-clad goth child may not be so intimidating at first glance.

Boomstick: Yeah, I mean, paint a red stripe on him and he's just a human Shadow the Hedgehog.

Wiz: But in reality, Hiei is a menacing warrior of demonic heritage. Born to a forbidden love between an ice woman and a fire monster.

'''Boomstick: Ah, reminds me of me and my ex. Well, too bad the rest of the ice ladies got pissed that she had banged a literally hot dude. So when her son was born, they chucked the little bastard right off their floating island. Damn ladies, I know you're jealous, but you don't gotta take it on a kid. That's my stepfather's job.'''

Wiz: And yet the child survived. Raised by thieves and remembering every last moment of the catastrophe of his birth, Hiei swore revenge.

Boomstick: And having bandits for foster parents means he got into stealing and murder at a wonderfully young age.

Wiz: With his otherworldly physique, Hiei quickly became an expert in athletic ability and swordsmanship. These skills would grow even further after he joined forces with his rival, the Spirit Detective, Yusuke.

'''Boomstick: But he needed more than blades and brawn to get back at the ice b*tches. So he went to Shigure, the doctor of darkness, who would implant a magical third eye into his forehead, cause, we... still ain't done with these eyeball shenanigans, I guess.'''

Wiz: This was the Jagan, literally translating to "Evil Eye". With the Jagan, Hiel wields numerous mystical powers, he can spy on people and objects from ten kilometers away, he can read minds and protect his own from powerful mental attacks, he can move objects and energy with telekinesis.

'''Boomstick: And that's just the start of his powers, but with the Jagan stuck in his face, Hiei finally made the trip to Ice Town, but, uh... wasn't quite what he expected.'''

Wiz: Right, instead of slaughtering the demon women as he planned, he spared them, because he realized that they lived meaningless, cold lives.

'''Boomstick: You get it? Cause, they're ice people?'''

Wiz: Is this pity? From a demon?

'''Boomstick: I mean, you might not want to invite this guy to your next backyard party, but he's not THAT bad of a guy. Case in point, he found out he's got a twin sister, and set out on a new mission to find and protect her.'''

Wiz: And with the Jagan eye and his further abilities, he'd make one powerful bodyguard.

Hiei: Dragon of the Darkness Flame!!!

Kurama: How many times did you cut him?

Hiei: Only sixteen.

Yusuke: And here I can only keep track of seven or eight.

Hiei: Once you're own doom has been unraveled, I assure you there's no turning back.

Death Battle
(*Cues: Unknown*)

We see Hiei as he walks through a forest as Sasuke, using ninjutsu to stand on a tree branch upside down, confronts him.

''Sasuke: You! Where are you going?''

Hiei ignores the response with a few words as he walks away.

Hiei: That's not your business.

The Hidden Leaf Shinobi drops down from the branch ready to confront him further.

Sasuke: Turn back or-

As Sasuke says his warning to him, the Ice Woman/Fire Demon hybrid punches him backward and rapid punches him as Sasuke blocks that time until Hiei strikes a few blows including the uppercut that launches him. Hiei then jumps up and readies his punch.

Hiei: Fist of the Mortal Flame!

The attack punched Sasuke down but landed on his feet as the Uchiha clan member dodged the Jagan user's next attack.

Sasuke: I'll end this quickly.

Sasuke draws out his sword and charges at his opponent before Hiei draw out his own sword to block his attack. The two swords clash at blinding speed with both swordsmen not landing a hit on the other. But that soon changed as the Legacy of Indra then hits Hiei with his knee. He then throws his sword and activates his Rinnegan. Hiei crashes to a tree as the sword Sasuke threw at him comes as the Speed Demon blocks until the sword was switched to Sasuke as the Uchiha member striked at Hiei with the Chidori. The resulting electrical surge made noticeable among the treetops.

KO!

Results
Boomstick: Sasuke lost the edge and was a Sharin-goner.

Wiz: The winner is Hiei.
