Naruto: My Sharingan is about to burst!

Standing to the side, Shizune heard Tsunade's less-than-frank answer and subtly curled the corners of her lips. She wondered who it was that had been researching ever since Qiu Shanjun left, without even having time to eat.

Uchiha Kazuyama could not possibly believe Tsunade's lies, but he did not expose her. Instead, he walked over, gently hugged her, and said, "I'm sorry to have worried you."

Tsunade blushed immediately and pretended to push his chest, but it seemed like she didn't have any strength and she couldn't push him away no matter what she did.

"I wasn't worried at all. I just had a sudden urge to look at the information."

Upon hearing Tsunade's words, Uchiha Kakuyama kissed her forehead and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, I know, I was just overthinking it, it has nothing to do with Tsunade."

In the end, it was Uchiha Kakuyama who accompanied Tsunade to finish reading and organizing the last bit of information before they went to have their late lunch.

After the meal, Uchiha Kakuzan originally wanted to get intimate with Tsunade or tease Shizune, but unexpectedly, he was locked in the room by Tsunade, who was holding the information about Kumogakure that Tsunade had previously compiled.

Chapter 250 Late Night in Kumogakure

Chapter 250 Late Night in Kumogakure

Unlike Iwagakure, Kumogakure is a village that is entirely martial, and the people living here are all people with a strong desire to fight. Therefore, Uchiha Kakuyama plans to finish the battle quickly.

There weren't many good things to covet in Kumogakure. Apart from the Raikage's Lightning Release Armor and Darui's Storm Release, there were only the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails, the two tailed beasts.

As night fell, a very blurry figure suddenly appeared on a mountaintop some distance from Kumogakure. This figure immediately blended into its surroundings upon appearing.

Even if someone were watching this mountaintop at all times, upon seeing this fleeting figure, they would think they were seeing things and would never suspect that it was an outsider preparing to invade Kumogakure.

The Hidden Cloud Village has always been very strong, and its power structure is based on strength. If you are strong enough, you can even get the position of Raikage.

This resulted in it being completely different from other villages, like a mafia organization, where even their Raikage had his subordinates call him Boss.

Therefore, this is a village that prioritizes strength above all else, pursuing abilities that can make them powerful. This is why they are so keen on collecting tailed beasts, and why they are so fixated on the Byakugan of Konoha.

Standing atop Uchiha Hill, facing the biting wind, he gazed at the distant Hidden Cloud Village. He wore the long-forgotten Camouflage Technique, which allowed him to blend seamlessly into his surroundings.

"Roll your eyes—open!"

With a thought from Uchiha Kakuzan, the Byakugan, which had become one with him, quietly opened.

Unlike the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan, Uchiha Kakuzan's eyes do not have prominent veins on the sides when he opens them, possibly because the chakra channels leading to his eyes are already very developed.

Moreover, his eyes are not pure white now. If you look closely, you will find that his eyes have a faint blue tinge on the pure white background.

Just after Uchiha Kakuzan activated his Byakugan, everything in the Hidden Cloud Village appeared before him.

Whether it's the residents sleeping and resting, the ninjas taking turns on duty, the Fourth Raikage with his volatile and powerful chakra, the lazy yet profound Darui, and so on.

The two strikingly large sources of chakra should be Matatabi (Two-Tails) and Gyūki (Eight-Tails).

These two tailed beasts have a subtle difference in chakra levels. The one with more chakra is closer to the Raikage and is likely the Eight-Tails.

The Two-Tails, on the other hand, lived in a rather remote place, far away from the Raikage and the Eight-Tails in the center of the village, and it was obvious that it didn't want to pay any attention to them.

After observing for a while, Uchiha Kakuyama had an idea in mind.

Unlike other villages, Yunyin Village is built nestled among mountains, so to cause the most damage to it, one would have to rely on its unique geographical advantages.

Earth Release: Light and Heavy Rock Technique

Using the Light-Heavy Rock Technique, Uchiha Kakuzan lightly touched his toes and slowly floated up, facing the mountain wind that tugged at his clothes, as if he were riding the wind away. With the camouflage effect of the Camouflage Concealment Technique, he quickly blended into the night sky and starry river.

Uchiha Kakuzan concealed himself in the night and slowly approached Kumogakure. Just as he was about to reach the village, Uchiha Kakuzan suddenly stopped.

Then, Uchiha Kakuyama smiled, looked ahead with a smile in his eyes, and then reached out and tapped the air in mid-air.

As he tapped his finger, a faint red ripple suddenly appeared in the previously empty air, centered on the spot where Uchiha Kakuyama's finger had touched. However, the ripple was very slight and quickly disappeared.

Uchiha Kakuzan, who already possessed a deep mastery of sealing techniques, easily recognized the barrier before him as a sealing barrier technique derived from the Uzumaki clan.

His tap was less significant than the ripples caused by a sparrow, so it wouldn't attract the attention of the people in charge of the barrier in Kumogakure.

Uchiha Kakuzan shook his head. For him, breaking this barrier would be easy, but it would attract attention, so he decided to use the old method instead.

As soon as Uchiha Kakuzan had a thought, his Mangekyou Sharingan activated. After focusing his gaze on a spot within the barrier, the Sharingan slightly rotated, and a spatial imprint was marked there. Then, Uchiha Kakuzan's figure flashed and appeared there.

Having entered Uchiha Kagayama of Kumogakure, he surveyed his surroundings before landing in an inconspicuous spot. He then straightened his expression and formed hand seals.

"Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique"

As Uchiha Kakuzan formed hand seals, five identical figures split off from his body, and the power of these five wood clones was no less than that of the original.

In order to carry out a major operation, Uchiha Kakuzan allocated the amount of chakra to these five wood clones to the level of mid-Kage.

After exchanging glances, the five wood clones nodded to Uchiha Kakuyama. Then, the clones used transformation techniques to transform into ninjas, each with their own unique style, but all dressed as Iwagakure ninjas.

Then, without prior arrangement, they all used the Camouflage Concealment Technique to blend into their surroundings. After that, they used the Light-Heavy Rock Technique, and after exchanging a wink with their real bodies, they quietly flew off to various corners of Kumogakure.

Uchiha Kakuyama stood there quietly, watching his clones perform their tasks with practiced ease, and couldn't help but twitch his lips, muttering something under his breath.

"These idiots!"

Afterwards, Uchiha Kakuzan used the Byakugan once again to confirm the locations of the various important figures in Iwagakure before quietly lying in wait.

Time passed by, second by second, and the night in Kumogakure quietly slipped away.

At that moment, as if they had planned it together, the wooden clones scattered around the Hidden Cloud Village placed their hands on the various mountain walls they had chosen.

Earth Release: Rock Collapse

These wood clones each possessed Kage-level chakra, and they all used their full power when employing this Earth Release technique.

This directly results in even B-rank ninjutsu being able to exert the power of S-rank ninjutsu. Moreover, this earth-style technique has a huge destructive power on terrain, and it is used by five Kage-level ninjutsu.

Chapter 251 Lightning Armor and Storm Release

Chapter 251 Lightning Armor and Storm Release

Earth Release: Rock Collapse

As the wooden clones scattered throughout the Hidden Cloud Village unleashed their full chakra, they simultaneously used Earth Release: Earth Release. The range of its impact even startled the instigator, Uchiha Kakuzan.

In that instant, it was as if the sky had suddenly collapsed, and the entire Hidden Cloud Village shook. Not only the five peaks chosen by the Wood Clone, but also the surrounding peaks shook violently.

The mountains where houses were built in Kumogakure collapsed and scattered one by one, like dominoes.

Of course, this only makes the scene look magnificent. In reality, the damage was severe only in the area where the wood clone used earth jutsu, while other places were just startled.

As the earthquake-like commotion erupted, the experts from Amegakure rushed out and charged toward the collapsed mountain.

The most conspicuous among them was the Fourth Raikage, A, whose entire body was covered in bright blue lightning. Using the Lightning Release Armor, the Fourth Raikage was arguably the fastest of them all, rushing towards the nearest disaster site like a bolt of lightning.

But the wooden clone there wouldn't let him pass so easily. It directly blocked the Fourth Raikage's path, and then formed hand seals, pressing them to the ground.

"Escape from Earth - Earthflow City Wall"

As the wood clone successfully used the Earth Release ninjutsu, a huge and thick earthen wall suddenly rose up beneath him, lifting him onto the top of the wall.

The Fourth Raikage, who was on his way here, immediately realized what was happening upon seeing the city wall and stopped not far from it.

Upon seeing the person standing on the city wall, Raikage stretched out his strong arm, pointed at him furiously, and shouted, "Who are you? Did you do all this? How dare you come to my village to cause trouble? Are you looking for death?"

The wooden clone standing on the wall, when facing the enraged Raikage, actually sat down on the wall and said with a grin, "I'm here to cause trouble today. You Kumogakure village don't take Iwagakure village seriously at all. Have you forgotten how the Third Raikage died? I'm here today to teach you a lesson. Remember to keep a low profile when you encounter people from Iwagakure village in the future."

The already furious Raikage became even more enraged after hearing the words of the man dressed as an Iwagakure ninja, and his beard even stood on end in anger.

As his anger grew, the bright blue lightning on the lightning armor that already covered his body shone even brighter, as if it were about to leap out.

At this moment, the Raikage no longer cared about the scheming of the person in front of him. His eyes seemed to flash with lightning as he stared at the person on the city wall and roared, "You scum from Iwagakure! I was going to spare your life, but now it seems there's no need. You brought this on yourself."

As Raikage finished speaking, the lightning on his body converged towards his right hand, focusing on the three extended fingers.

"Hellish Thrust - Three-Pronged Attack"

Enraged, the Raikage unleashed his Three-Handed Piercing Technique and charged toward the nearby city wall.

This seemingly sturdy and solid city wall, however, crumbled like paper under the Raikage's ultimate move, collapsing in a single exchange.

Not far from the Raikage, in a dark corner, Uchiha Kakuyama stood quietly, his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan watching the Raikage in the distance, the Raikage's figure clearly reflected in his eyes.

Just then, Uchiha Kazuyama's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan stopped spinning, and Kazuyama-kun closed his eyes at the right time, his face showing genuine joy, his lips slightly upturned, and he murmured softly, "The final stage of the Lightning Release Armor is in hand."

That's right, Uchiha Kakuyama has achieved his biggest goal this time, successfully learning the ultimate version of the Fourth Raikage's signature technique - Lightning Release Armor.

After Uchiha Okayama's Mangekyou Sharingan slowly closed, he glanced once more at the enraged Raikage before heading towards his next target.

At this moment, the wooden clone that was dodging the Raikage seemed to have received a message. It paused slightly, and then, contrary to its usual behavior, it unleashed various earth-style techniques at the Fourth Raikage as if they were free.

"Earth Release - Earth Dragon Bullet" "Earth Release - Earth Rising Spear" "Earth Release - Rock Pillar Spear"

As the wood clones erupted, the Raikage's steps toward him involuntarily halted. He countered the earth jutsu with a swift and decisive move, using his body, encased in lightning armor, to shatter all the ninjutsu.

Although the wooden clones posed no threat to the Raikage, they did slow him down.

When Uchiha Kakuyama's true form arrived at Darui's location, Darui didn't slack off either, immediately unleashing his strongest techniques against these intruders.

"Storm Escape - Overcoming Adversity and Locking in Harsh Elements"

As Darui used Storm Release, his Wood Clone, which was blocking him, was immediately at a disadvantage.

Lightning Release is inherently a difficult ninjutsu to control, especially once it's used. This is why the Raikage's Lightning Release Armor is so difficult to master—lightning is simply too hard to control.

Darui's Storm Release is a bloodline limit that combines water and lightning attributes. It not only has the destructive power of lightning release but also the controllability of water attribute. This is why the wood clone was at a disadvantage. You've already used your ninjutsu, yet it can still be controlled by you and even turn around, which is a bit too much.

As for Darui's Storm Release, those beams were like lasers, easily penetrating the defensive Earth Release techniques used by the Wood Clone.

Therefore, during this time, the wooden clone could only be suppressed and attacked.

After looking at Darui, Uchiha Kakuzan activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Although he had just copied the Fourth Raikage's Lightning Release Armor and Three-Handed Blade, Uchiha Kakuzan still had a desire to collect Storm Release, a relatively rare bloodline limit.

Shortly after Uchiha Kakuzan awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan, Darui, whom he had been observing, once again used his signature ninjutsu, "Storm Release: Relentless Lock."

As the ninjutsu he used came into view, Uchiha Kakuyama's Mangekyou Sharingan began to spin faster and faster. As the Sharingan decomposed, combined, optimized, and absorbed Darui's Storm Release, it eventually successfully copied his Storm Release as well.

Chapter 252: Two-Tailed Jinchūriki

Chapter 252 The Two-Tails Jinchuriki

Standing in the shadows, Uchiha Kakuyama closed his eyes slightly after copying Darui's Storm Release. After careful thought and digestion, a light of the exact same color as when Darui used Storm Release appeared at his fingertips.

Uchiha Kakuzan raised his hand, looked at the glimmer of light at his fingertips, then rubbed his fingers together to extinguish the light.

Uchiha Kakuyama glanced at Darui, who was still locked in a fierce battle with the wood clone, and then at the chaotic surroundings. Just as he was about to leave...

"Thunder Plow Hot Knife"

Suddenly, a ninja covered in red chakra clothing rushed out from behind Uchiha Kakuyama, raised his right arm, and was about to strike Uchiha Kakuyama.
