Naruto's civilian cannon fodder starts with the three-body technique

Chapter 431 Awakening Kaleidoscope

The battlefield fell into a deathly silence.

The wind seemed to have stopped flowing, with only the sporadic shouts of Konoha ninja chasing after fleeing Iwa ninja in the distance, and the stench of blood permeating the air.

Everyone who witnessed this earth-shattering attack, whether from Konoha or the remaining Iwa ninja, held their breath, their eyes fixed on the human-shaped crater embedded in the mountain wall.

"Pfft!"

A charred and mangled "corpse" slid out of the pit and crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust, and remained motionless.

After a brief pause, the Konoha camp erupted in thunderous cheers.

"We won! Onoki is dead!"

"Long live Umino-sama!"

"My god, what kind of forbidden lightning technique is this? One-hit kill, it's terrifying!"

"Such a distance, such powerful penetrating force! Even the Second Hokage's S-rank Water Release: Hard Vortex Water Blade is probably far inferior to this!"

"Lord Umino truly deserves to be called the new generation's ninja god of Konoha!"

Ecstasy and shock spread rapidly among the Konoha ninjas. Sasuke Umino's Railgun attack ignited their passion and admiration.

The defeated Iwa ninja, seeing their pillar of faith "fall," completely lost their last shred of fighting spirit.

"Lord Tsuchikage is dead?!"

"This is impossible! I don't believe it?!"

"Even the Tsuchikage... We're finished!"

"Run! Run away!"

Desperate cries and desperate roars replaced the previous resistance. Even the Iwagakure Jonin with their unwavering will to fight were now heartbroken and lost all fighting spirit. They began to flee for their lives with the fleeing crowd.

The defeat was swift and decisive; the Iwagakure Legion was completely annihilated.

Danzo looked at Umino Sasuke, his eyes filled with undisguised shock and unfathomable apprehension.

Uchiha Shun was filled with surprise and pride, feeling incredibly excited by his captain's strength. As the crisis subsided, the boiling chakra and surging eye power around him began to rapidly subside, and the three tomoe spinning rapidly in his eyes gradually returned to their normal speed.

Seeing that Shun's strength had declined, Umino Sasuke couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. Shun's state just now had definitely touched the threshold of the Mangekyou Sharingan. If he could take this opportunity to awaken it, his strength would definitely increase greatly, and he would enter the Kage level. In fact, if the Mangekyou Sharingan's abilities were particularly special and powerful, it might even be possible for him to directly soar to the Super Kage level!

Thinking of this, it seems that he has no choice but to change his mind, as he originally planned to continue his attack and cooperate with the army to completely wipe out the remaining enemies in order to create an opportunity for Uchiha Shun to awaken.

'Shun, don't let me down!'

In the blink of an eye, Umino Sasuke pretended to have used his trump card forbidden technique and was so exhausted that even his Thunder God Armor had extinguished and disintegrated. He was panting heavily as he slowly walked toward Onoki's "corpse".

At the same time, he secretly used Wood Release: Shadow Clone Technique to hide his main body underground.

However, they hadn't gone far when a sudden change occurred.

"Captain! Watch your step!"

Hyuga Asuka cried out in alarm.

However, his reminder seemed to come a step too late.

"puff!"

Without warning, a rocky pillar suddenly shot up from the ground where "Umino Sasuke" was standing, and the huge impact instantly sent him flying into the air.

"what?!"

"An attack?!"

This sudden turn of events caused all the Konoha ninjas to change their expressions drastically.

What happened next was even more terrifying for them.

"Dust Release: Split-Particle Style Technique!"

A transparent cubic beam of light instantly enveloped "Umino Sasuke" in mid-air.

No screams.

There was no struggle.

Under the horrified gazes of everyone, "Umino Sasuke" in the air was enveloped by the Dust Release light, and his body instantly disintegrated and dissipated, turning into the most primitive molecular dust, completely annihilated and disappeared.

"It worked! It wasn't a shadow clone!"

Onoki emerged from the ground not far away. He looked quite miserable; his Tsuchikage robe was tattered and charred, and his body was covered with terrifying marks from high-temperature plasma burns. His aura was extremely weak. Clearly, enduring the aftershocks of the Railgun and using the Split Technique had almost drained all his chakra and energy, costing him an unimaginable price.

Even so, his face still carried an almost manic sense of pride and elation.

"Haha! Cough cough... Hahaha! Umino Sasuke! No matter how powerful you are, you still died from my Dust Release in the end! To kill a threat like you, even if it costs me half my life, it's worth it! Worth it!"

He laughed loudly, his voice hoarse but full of joy. In his opinion, the rock pillar that had struck him earlier had not defeated him, so it must have been Sasuke Umino's true form.

This stunning reversal plunged the entire battlefield into deathly silence once again.

The Konoha ninja's ecstatic joy froze instantly, replaced by boundless bewilderment and fear.

"How could this be?"

"Commander has been..."

"No! This is impossible!"

The huge psychological gap left many Konoha ninja speechless and unable to accept it.

The fleeing Iwa ninjas instinctively stopped and looked back in disbelief.

"team leader--!!!"

A roar filled with endless pain and despair suddenly exploded.

Uchiha Shun watched helplessly as his captain, whom he regarded as a beacon and a brother, was ambushed by Onoki and reduced to dust and nothingness right before his eyes.

In that instant, overwhelming grief, boundless rage, and endless regret erupted like a volcanic eruption, instantly shattering his reason. Why hadn't he noticed sooner? Why hadn't he protected his captain...?

“Ahhhh——!!!”

Uchiha Shun clutched his head tightly with both hands, letting out a beast-like wail as intense emotional turmoil pounded against his brain and eyes.

The three-tomoe Sharingan in his eyes spun wildly at an unprecedented speed, even deforming!
The shape of the magatama was twisting, stretching, and connecting. Intense pain came from the eyes, as if the eyeballs were being torn apart and burned!

Two streams of bloody tears uncontrollably slid down his cheeks, leaving two glaring red marks on his pale face. Finally, catalyzed by that extreme emotion, some kind of restraint seemed to be broken!

A deeper, more terrifying force has awakened!

When he looked up again, the pattern in his eyes had completely changed.

It is no longer the three-comma pattern, but a new pattern that is more complex, more eerie, and full of ominous power, like two blood-red spider lilies that surround the pupils and distort time and space.

The cold and powerful gaze spread out as if it were a tangible force, causing subtle ripples to appear in the surrounding space.

"Mangekyo Sharingan?!"

Danzo's initial apprehension, which had subsided due to Sasuke Umino's "death," was instantly ignited by the scene before him, transforming into even deeper horror and murderous intent.

He stared intently at Uchiha Shun's brand-new eyes, now streaming with blood and tears, and roared inwardly: 'Mangekyou Sharingan! It's the Mangekyou Sharingan! The Uchiha clan has produced yet another of these sinful eyes!'

Hidden underground, Sasuke Umino sensed the powerful ocular power unleashed by Shun Uchiha and was initially overjoyed: 'Success! Shun has finally awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan!'

But then he also keenly sensed Danzo's almost undisguised intense killing intent.

'Danzo, I hope you don't make the wrong choice!'

In a flash, Sasuke Umino noticed Danzo's change and changed his strategy once again.

He immediately created another Wood Release clone, but this Wood Release clone looked extremely miserable. Its lower body was completely gone, and its wounds were charred black, as if it had been annihilated by Dust Release. Its aura was weak, and it could faint at any moment.

Then, accompanied by a spatial ripple, the incomplete Wood Release clone appeared in mid-air, then fell to the ground with a "thud," and after moving slightly, it fell into a coma.

"It's the Commander?!"

"He's still breathing! Commander, you're not dead?!"

"Commander's leg? Quick! Save him!"

The Konoha ninja were once again shocked by this change, but seeing that "Umino Sasuke" seemed to still have a glimmer of hope, they were immediately filled with hope.

Onoki's smile froze on his face. He stared at the suddenly appearing "Umino Sasuke," first stunned, then enraged: "You're still not completely dead?! Annihilate me completely!"

He clasped his hands together again, and transparent cubic lights began to gather in his palms, clearly intending to deliver the final blow and not allow Umino Sasuke any chance of survival.

"Protect the commander!"

"Stop him quickly!"

The Konoha ninjas were horrified and tried to rush forward, but they were too far away. Onoki was the closest, and it looked like his Dust Release was about to envelop the "remains" of "Umino Sasuke".

At this critical moment.

"team leader!"

Uchiha Shun let out a roar, pouring a large amount of chakra into his Mangekyou Sharingan. The pattern on his left eye transformed into a spatial vortex and began to spin abruptly.

An invisible spatial fluctuation instantly enveloped the unconscious "Umino Sasuke" on the ground.

The next moment, just before Onoki's Dust Release light was about to envelop him, "Umino Sasuke's" figure suddenly blurred, accompanied by a slight spatial distortion, and instantly disappeared from the spot.

Almost at the same time, ripples appeared in the space around Uchiha Shun, and the incomplete body of "Umino Sasuke" appeared out of thin air, held up by Uchiha Shun's hands.

Onoki's Dust Release: Particle Style Technique struck the empty ground, creating a huge crater.

Onoki abruptly turned his head to look in the direction of Uchiha Shun. When his gaze met those eerie eyes that were flowing with blood and tears, a sense of fear and chill from the depths of his soul instantly swept over his entire body.

"The Mangekyou Sharingan?!" Onoki's voice trembled slightly, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Madara Uchiha's shadow resurfaced like a nightmare. That blood-red oppressive feeling was a shadow that he could never erase in his life. Now, someone from the Uchiha clan has opened those evil eyes again, and the ability they have awakened is an extremely rare and troublesome spacetime ability.

Shun Uchiha gently handed the unconscious "Umino Sasuke" to Hyuga Asuka and several Anbu members: "Protect the captain!"

He slowly turned around, his Mangekyou Sharingan locked onto Onoki flying into the air. Blood and tears were still flowing, but the killing intent emanating from his body was as solid as a tangible substance!

"Onoki!" Shun Uchiha's voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with piercing hatred and determination. "How dare you launch a sneak attack and injure the captain like this! I will make you pay for this in blood!!"

Uchiha moved instantly. He didn't form any hand seals; his figure vanished from his original spot in an instant. It wasn't the Body Flicker Technique, but rather a spatial blink similar to the second stage of the Flying Thunder God Technique. This was his ability with his left Mangekyou Sharingan, which he used on himself to achieve spatial teleportation.

Despite his initial shock, Onoki remained calm and composed, displaying his extensive combat experience. He continued to ascend and create distance while simultaneously unleashing his ninjutsu: "Earth Release: Rock Fist Technique!"

The enormous rock fist slammed towards the spot where Uchiha Shun had appeared.

However, Shun's right eye suddenly froze!
Instantly, in Onoki's perception, everything around him seemed to slow down. His rock fist movements, flight speed, and even his own thoughts seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, becoming sluggish and slow.

Only Uchiha Shun's movements were as fast as lightning.

"What?!" Ohnoki was shocked.

Taking advantage of this brief time difference, Uchiha Shun easily dodged the Rock Fist, and his left eye refocused.

The next moment, Uchiha Shun suddenly appeared behind Onoki's head and smashed down with a sharp whooshing sound.

Although Onoki's movements seemed to have slowed down considerably, his fighting instincts remained. Sensing the danger, he forcibly twisted his body and narrowly avoided Uchiha Shun's sneak attack.

Onoki was terrified upon their first encounter; the kaleidoscope's abilities were simply too bizarre.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

Uchiha Shun seized the opportunity and spewed out a raging sea of ​​fire.

The scale and power of this fire release technique far surpassed any he had used before; it was so intensely hot it could melt metal and stone. After awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, the chakra within him underwent a complete transformation.
Earth Release: Steel Wall!

Onoki dared not be negligent and summoned a giant rock wall to protect himself and block the flames.

The flames scorched the rock wall, making a crackling sound.

"Uchiha Style: Kunai Throwing!"

Uchiha Shun threw out a large number of kunai. At the same time, his right eye ability was activated again. The kunai, whose trajectories were already tricky, kept flashing and teleporting from various strange angles to Onoki's blind spots to attack.

"Earth Release·Earth Spear!"

Onoki added an all-around defensive Earth Release technique to his Hardening Technique, which finally allowed him to withstand this strange attack.

However, facing Uchiha Shun's completely unreasonable and bizarre attacks, Onoki was struggling to cope. Although his Dust Release was powerful, it required a short preparation time. Under the unpredictable and "time-slowing" space-time ability attacks, he simply couldn't find an opportunity to lock onto his opponent.

In addition, he was already injured and his chakra was nearly depleted, so his flight speed was much slower than before. If Uchiha Shun hadn't been unable to fly, he probably would have already been defeated.

Suddenly, a bizarre scene unfolded in the sky above the battlefield.

Shun Uchiha, having awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan, completely overwhelmed the veteran Kage-level shinobi, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki. Although he couldn't break through Onoki's defenses, Onoki could only passively take the beatings, utterly powerless to retaliate.
