Chapter 110 The Final Battle Approaches

With his three-tomoe Sharingan, superhuman strength, and the ability to transform the nature of three chakra natures, combined with Gen Uchiha's current base stats, he was confident that he possessed the combat power of an elite Jonin.

Unless those Kage-level powerhouses come out to target him, or he gets surrounded by a large army on a large-scale battlefield, it should be difficult for anything to threaten his life.

That afternoon, Orochimaru, who had just returned from the battlefield, looked at Uchiha Gen's Earth Release nature transformation with a somewhat incredulous expression.

Learning so fast?

His training speed back then had already surprised many people, but compared to Uchiha Gen, he was actually somewhat inferior.

At this rate, in a few years, not only will there be nothing left to deliver, but Uchiha Gen's strength might already be on par with his, standing at the pinnacle of the ninja world.

It's time to let him share some of the burden.

However, before that, we need to further improve Uchiha Gen's ninja level.

"Return to the team tomorrow. We have Duan on the other side providing us with assistance from time to time. We have gained a lot of convenience in intelligence reconnaissance. We don't need to go on missions like the last one anymore. From now on, your squad will be fully involved in the offensive and defensive operations on the main battlefield."

The Sand Village's logistics system is currently compromised. As long as we can maintain pressure on them, we have a chance to repel them before they can restore their logistics capabilities. During this phase, their counterattacks will be the most intense, and you will have many tasks to complete.

In the medical area, Tsunade has returned from her mission. Although she still needs you for the time being, we can put things aside for a while.

"Given the current momentum of the war, you should be able to accumulate enough mission merits to advance to Jonin within this year."

In Orochimaru's hoarse voice, Gen Uchiha nodded.

"I understand, Orochimaru-sensei."

Having more missions and gaining more experience is certainly what he wants, and becoming a Jonin as soon as possible is also a good thing.

Becoming a Jonin is the highest rank for a ninja, second only to the Hokage.

Just the fact that one must pass the trust vote of the Jonin Tournament to become Hokage is enough to make every Jonin someone that those who aspire to become Hokage want to win over.

Moreover, if one wants to become the head of an important department, or even an elder or Hokage, one must first become a Jonin.

This identity is not only a symbol of strength, but also a hard indicator of status and power.

Although the escalation of the war had been anticipated, Gen Uchiha was still somewhat surprised by the madness of the Sand Village ninjas when he actually stepped onto the front lines of a large-scale battlefield once again.

If they don't go crazy now, they'll be driven out of the Land of Rain and lose the war.

Similarly, if Konoha can withstand this final desperate struggle and continue to suppress Sunagakure, their logistical system will be unable to support them, forcing them to withdraw from the Land of Rain and rendering them powerless to launch a distant expedition.

With the retreat of Sunagakure from the direction of the Land of Rain, they could no longer contain Konoha in that direction, leaving only the Third Kazekage of the Land of Rivers, who was also unable to hold the line and had lost his ability to advance.

It remains to be seen whether they will be able to maintain their current gains.

Time flies.

-

Several months later.

From late spring to autumn, the blood and fire almost dyed the rivers and lakes of the Land of Rain red.

"Click".

With his throat snapped, Uchiha Genji casually tossed a corpse to the ground. After taking a few deep breaths, he used a Sharingan genjutsu combined with a Rasengan to kill a Sunagakure who had caught up with him.

Without hesitation, he instantly withdrew and retreated.

"source!"

Mitarashi Shishou's voice came from not far away.

Uchiha Gen understood immediately, formed hand seals, and unleashed a series of explosive fireballs diagonally into the air ahead.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

The raging wind whipped up the flames, halting the Sand Village's pursuit.

Although the enemy soon launched a combined Wind Release ninjutsu, they overcame the disadvantage of being countered by the element, using quantity to overwhelm quality and using air currents to annihilate the sea of ​​fire.

But soon, a figure carrying a large pot arrived beside Uchiha Gen, forming hand seals and spitting water.

"Water Release: Big Explosive Water Wave!"

The torrent swept in, rushing forward in a mighty torrent.

Gen Uchiha also began to form hand seals again, and brilliant lightning surged from his body, striking into the water.

"Lightning Release: Thunderclap".

Thunder and water clashed, forming a barrier that separated the two places.

Stepping on water will trigger Lightning Release attacks from the water. Using Earth Release, which counters Water Release, to alter the terrain and water flow to create channels will also be countered by Lightning Release and become ineffective.

The arrival of Sunagakure is always delayed by a little while.

"withdraw."

Maruhoshi Kosuke grabbed Mitarashi Shishou beside him, and the three of them instantly retreated, disappearing from the spot.

A few minutes later.

"They've all gone mad, these Sand Village ninja."

Mitarashi Shishou looked at the purplish wound on her shoulder with frustration and turned to Uchiha Gen for help.

He was injured by the enemy's puppeteer, whose weapon was poisoned. Even the antidote pills could only temporarily suppress the spread of the poison. To heal him in a short time, he would have to rely on Uchiha Gen.

Upon seeing this, the latter reached out and pressed his hand on Mitarashi Shishou's body.

The Fine-Touch Extraction Technique was activated, slowly extracting the toxins from the wound. Then, the Palm Immortal Technique was used to simply heal the injury and stop the bleeding.

This attack had been going on all day, but ultimately failed to break through.

Now that enemy reinforcements have arrived, we must retreat.

Several Jonin-level fighters covered the rear, ensuring the team's retreat.

"That's how war is; you have to go crazy to survive."

Maruhoshi Kosuke looked at the Sunagakure stronghold nestled among the distant mountains and sighed.

"Let's go back to camp and rest. With the arrival of this wave of reinforcements from Sunagakure, the total number of troops deployed at this stronghold has at least doubled. There must be at least four or five hundred people in total, and the number of Jonin is also more than ours. We definitely can't take this stronghold with just our squads. We need to request reinforcements, otherwise it will just be a meaningless stalemate."

Mitarashi Shishou glanced at the wound on her shoulder, which had healed somewhat, and shook her head helplessly.

His squad was rather special because it had a genin named Maruboshi Kosuke, whose combat power was comparable to that of an elite jonin, and another genin named Uchiha Gen, whose strength was no less than that of Maruboshi Kosuke. Their high-end combat power was extremely strong, and they were able to successfully cover the retreat of the main force.

If it were any other detachment, they might actually have been overturned and pushed back after the enemy's reinforcements arrived.

"Then this place will also become a battlefield with more than a thousand people. Recently, there have been more and more battles of this scale, which means that Sunagakure has no other choice but to gradually gather its strength, abandon some areas, strategically retreat, and hold on to these strongholds."

Uchiha Gen was also gazing at the mountains shrouded in rain in the distance, and he understood.

The moment of the decisive battle is drawing ever closer.
