Naruto: Building the Strongest Uchiha Starting with Gacha Pulls

Chapter 114 An Unexpectedly Powerful Enemy

However, Gen Uchiha's strength was enough to withstand Chiyo's first wave of attacks.

Just as she was about to unleash her full power against Gen Uchiha, Tsunade and Orochimaru arrived and stopped Chiyo.

"Phew—we're safe now."

Gen Uchiha quietly retreated, avoiding the battlefield of the three Kage-level powerhouses.

Compared to before, Tsunade and Orochimaru, who have now earned the reputation of being the Legendary Sannin, have improved their strength even further, truly crossing the threshold of Kage-level powerhouses and approaching their peak step by step.

Even though their foundation is still somewhat lacking, they have firmly gained the upper hand by joining forces.

The fact that they could chase Chiyo all over the place shows that the two of them must have the ability to suppress her when they team up.

"call----"

Uchiha Genji took a deep breath of the battlefield air thick with gunpowder smoke. His arm trembled slightly, and the palm of his hand holding the Sengoku Ninja Sword split open, drawing blood.

Chiyo's poison needles were fast and accurate, each one possessing the power to pierce gold and shatter stone, and there were many of them, making it difficult for him to block these attacks.

This is due to an absolute difference in strength.

To be honest, the fact that Uchiha Gen was attacked by Chiyo and managed to withstand her attacks for so long was enough to make him an instant sensation and make him famous in the ninja world.

At the very least, the other ninjas who were observing this area noticed him.

"Rasengan!"

A ball of azure chakra was pushed out by a bloodstained hand. With the help of Sharingan genjutsu, it easily subdued a Sand Village ninja who came to test the waters. Soon, other Sand Village ninja rushed over, but Konoha ninja who noticed the situation also came to cover for Uchiha Gen.

A being who can hold their own against a Kage-level powerhouse like Chiyo has the ability to turn the tide of a local battle and can play a significant role.

As several Konoha ninjas came to help him hold off the enemy, Uchiha Gensuke used Healing Palm Technique to repair the small crack on his tiger's mouth and the slightly spasming muscles in his arm, before raising his sword again to step forward.

He might not be able to defeat a strong opponent like Chiyo, but he's more than capable of dealing with other Sand Village ninjas.

"Fire Release: Great Flame Gale Technique!"

The sea of ​​fire was vast, and even the raindrops in the sky were evaporated.

Uchiha Gen stepped over a charred corpse, his back to the sea of ​​fire, his eyes glowing red, a sword in one hand, and bloodstains on his clothes, making him look like the Grim Reaper.

Excluding the top-tier powerhouses, these elite Jonin are the strongest force on the battlefield.

In this battle, Konoha had more ninjas and more powerful ones, so Sunagakure couldn't possibly assign an equal number of skilled fighters to deal with every Konoha ninja.

It wasn't that no one tried to temporarily stop Uchiha Gen, but given the difference in strength, they could only delay Uchiha Gen's progress and expend more energy.

Until a figure with a bare upper body and many black lines on its body appeared in front of him.

"Tsk—this is big trouble. Why is this guy here? The intelligence said you usually don't get involved in the affairs of the great ninja villages. Why are you showing up this time? How much did Sunagakure pay you?"

Seeing the unexpected obstacle blocking his way, Gen Uchiha turned around helplessly and swung his sword, severing the clusters of black lines that suddenly emerged from the ground behind him. His heart sank.

Kakuzu, the rebellious ninja of Takigakure.

He is not currently a member of the Akatsuki organization, since the organization has not even been established yet.

Kakuzu is widely recognized as the number one bounty hunter in the ninja world, possessing formidable strength, and his appearance is already well-known.

This guy is very strong, not much easier to deal with than Chiyo.

"You're right. I've always been reluctant to get involved in the affairs of your five great ninja villages, especially your Konoha. But if the stakes are high enough, there's nothing that can't be done in this world."

Kakuzu's deep voice was full of confidence.

This Uchiha brat is certainly not weak, but compared to him, there is still a clear gap.

"Arrest me? Instead of killing me?"

Uchiha Gen narrowed his eyes slightly.

The Sand Village would love to kill him, so why would they want to capture him?

Are they going to capture them to be used as breeding boars, so that they can leave behind a branch of the Uchiha bloodline in Sunagakure?

If they could really do that, they would have already tried to capture other weaker Uchiha members. Why would they bother targeting an elite Jonin like him?

Uchiha Gen probably guessed that this was most likely Madara and Black Zetsu's doing again.

Since White Zetsu couldn't defeat him last time, he decided to seek help from outside and find a Kage-level powerhouse to do the job.

The number of Kage-level shinobi is limited, and there are even fewer Kage-level shinobi outside the five great ninja villages. Kakuzu is definitely one of the easier ones to find.

The higher the bounty you offer, the greater the probability of him appearing.

Uchiha didn't know what kind of bargaining chips Madara and Black Zetsu had offered to get Kakuzu to attack him, nor did he know where those two got the confidence to think they could control him, but he knew very well how dangerous he was right now.

Fortunately, this is a battlefield, and a battlefield where Konoha ninjas outnumber and have the advantage. Further away are Orochimaru and Tsunade, who are suppressing Chiyo.

Even though Kakuzu is powerful, he might not be able to defeat himself!

He only needs to hold out for a while. As the balance of power on the battlefield increasingly tilts towards Konoha, even Kakuzu would be unwilling to be surrounded by the army in the long run.

Although Kakuzu held an absolute advantage in terms of strength, time was on Gen Uchiha's side.

If the commotion is big enough, other Konoha Jonin who are free to help will naturally come over to lend a hand.

Fight!

Without saying another word, both sides tacitly chose to take action at the same instant.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Water Release: Water Curtain!"

The fireball and the water cannon collided, creating a thick fog.

Gen Uchiha quickly retreated, avoiding the water that was still spreading towards him.

Kakuzu's mastery of the Five Elements ninjutsu is equally astonishing. In this respect, there are only a handful of people in the entire ninja world who can sit at the same table as him, such as the Third Hokage and Orochimaru.

While Gen Uchiha's Fire Release technique is considered quite good among Jonin, it's only a nature transformation and not enough to bridge the gap.

The next instant, a masked monster appeared beside Kakuzu, firing high-pressure wind bullets like a cannon towards Uchiha Gen.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"

A mocking earthen wall rose up, intercepting the wind bullet, but it was then pierced and sliced ​​apart by a lightning bolt formed into a line.

Uchiha Gen, who should have been fleeing in a sorry state at this moment, has instead vanished from the spot.

The next instant, when he reappeared, he had already used Earth Release to lurk behind Kakuzu, his palm flashing with lightning, aiming straight for Kakuzu's heart.

It's the same familiar Thousand Years of Death combo, and when equipped with the Young Kakashi character card, it runs surprisingly smoothly.
