Naruto: The Defense-Breaking System – Putting Some Pressure on the Shinobi World

The forests of the Land of Fire are vast and boundless; it takes ninjas five or six days to travel from Konoha Village to the border of the Land of Fire.

On the fourth night, while resting, Uchiha Ryo, as usual, brought over a dozen wooden stakes.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball!"

A flame burned on the tree stump for several tens of seconds, igniting the stump.

The three sat by the campfire, watching the flames leap.

Du Lejiong felt a sense of inferiority. He was in the middle of the class in theory classes, but he was at the bottom in ninjutsu and sparring classes.

Uchiha Ryo was at the bottom of the class in theory classes, but was the undisputed number one in sparring classes.

What's the use of calculating parabolas when you're truly facing life and death?

Du Lejiong asked, "Red Bean, do you know why you were assigned to Orochimaru's team?"

He felt that being Orochimaru's student was too difficult; he wasn't given any guidance and was simply thrown onto the battlefield.

As far as he knew, the other squads had to carry out D-level missions in the village for at least a month.

How fortunate they are to have teachers and a buffer zone.

Mitarashi Anko said, "My father used to be Orochimaru's subordinate, but he sacrificed himself for Orochimaru two years ago."

Uchiha Ryo said, "It seems your father is trusted by Orochimaru-sensei."

Orochimaru-sensei probably doesn't consider taking you on as a reward.

Mitarashi Anko found Uchiha Ryo's words very offensive and was extremely upset.

So many things have happened recently. I graduated early and was assigned to Orochimaru's team. The team includes the underachiever Du Lejiong and the sharp-tongued Uchiha Ryo. We're about to go to the front lines. Everything is so unpredictable.

The darkness ahead brought Mitarashi Anko a suffocating fear.

The warmth of the campfire couldn't dispel the icy chill on my skin.

The flames crackled, and just as the red bean was falling, they suddenly heard Uchiha Ryo's shout.

"Be careful!"

Uchiha Ryo formed hand seals, and after three seals, he slapped his hands on the ground.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

Mitarashi Anko was shocked. Wasn't they just warming themselves by a campfire? Why was she using ninjutsu?

While Du Lejiong was still envying Hongdou's father for being Orochimaru's subordinate, a rumbling sound came from behind him, and an earthen wall rose up.

A whooshing sound rang out behind my head; it was the sound of kunai being shot into the earthen wall.

Uchiha Ryo raised a finger: "Dule Jiong, I said I would save you three times, this is the first time."

Du Lejiong almost burst into tears; he had never seen a high-speed kunai aimed straight at the back of his head.

When Mitarashi Anko heard Uchiha Rin's warning, she rolled to the side, her clothes on her arm were torn by a kunai, but thankfully, she didn't bleed.

"This place is over a hundred kilometers from the border of the Land of Fire, why are there Iwa ninja here?!"

Mitarashi Anko asked the question, but no one answered her.

Perhaps it was an intelligence team from Iwagakure who infiltrated and, in a low growl, spied on the supply routes of the Konoha forces. They happened to encounter three Konoha genin and easily dispatched them.

Are they going to die?

Looking up, four adult ninja figures appeared on the tree trunks around them.

Four adult ninjas were fighting against three nine-year-old genin...

Uchiha Rin glanced at the four people and said, "How dare four mere Iwa ninjas venture more than a hundred kilometers into the Land of Fire?"

Do you know who our team leader is?

Hold on tight to the tree, listen carefully, our team leader is none other than the legendary Sannin, Lord Orochimaru!

The four of them visibly froze.

One of the team leaders made several hand gestures to the other two.

The two Iwa ninja disappeared; they must have gone to scout out the surrounding area.

Orochimaru wouldn't be hiding nearby, would he? That would be too sneaky!

Are you using three students as bait?

Mitarashi Anko was overjoyed, and Uchiha Ryo distracted the two Iwa ninja with just a few words.

The Iwa ninja must be terrified; three genin appearing on the front lines look like bait.

It has to be Uchiha Ryo.

The Iwa ninja captain asked, "Orochimaru? Where is he?"

"Of course Orochimaru-sensei is in the village. Would we need Orochimaru-sensei to deal with you personally?"

Mitarashi Anko felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her whole body was ice cold, yet her blood was rushing to her head, and her brain was throbbing painfully.

No!

Uchiha Ryo! Are you crazy?!

Why did you reveal the truth?

[A ninja has breached their defenses nearby. The defense breach system is activating...]

Uchiha Ryo was stunned. Who, who broke through his defenses?

I haven't even put any pressure on the Iwa ninja yet, and they've already broken through my defenses?

[Detected that Mitarashi Anko's defenses have been breached. Extracting abilities related to Mitarashi Anko. The host can choose one of the three.]

Option 1: Hidden Shadow Snake Hand;

Option 2: 0.4 chakra units;

Option 3: Kunai throwing technique.

Why did Mitarashi Anko's defenses break?

Uchiha Ryo's eyes lit up. Hidden Shadow Snake Hand?

Mitarashi Anko's father was once Orochimaru's subordinate, and she probably learned some snake-style ninjutsu from Orochimaru.

In the original story, the snakes in Ryuchi Cave were all unruly and difficult to control.

The snakes of the Hidden Shadow Serpent Hand are different from the famous giant snakes of Ryuchi Cave; they seem to have some cannon fodder attributes.

Should I choose Hidden Shadow Snake Hands, pretending to have learned it from Anko to curry favor with Orochimaru, or should I choose Chakra Amount?

As he hesitated, two Iwa ninja who had been searching the area returned.

"Captain! There's no one else here!"

The Iwa ninja captain was furious that he had wasted so much time being fooled by a few lies from a Konoha brat.

Mitarashi Anko's vision went black: "Uchiha Ryo! Wake up! This is war!"

This is a life-or-death battle between ninjas from an enemy village, not a sparring match in a school!

Can't you be normal for once?! What are you trying to do?!

Uchiha Ryo turned to look at the anxious Mitarashi Anko, still hesitating.

Four Iwa ninja suddenly leaped down from the tree, aiming their attacks at the vulnerable heads of the three Konoha ninjas with the ferocity of tigers descending a mountain.

Mitarashi Anko raised her hand, and two large, spotted snakes emerged from her sleeves.

"Hidden Shadow Snake Hand!"

The giant snake lunged forward two or three meters, opening its massive jaws. Its four venomous fangs were extremely intimidating, forcing the Iwa ninja in front of it to turn and dodge repeatedly in mid-air.

Upon seeing the effect, Uchiha Ryo immediately chose Hidden Shadow Snake Hand.

The itchy feeling on her forearm is due to the Hidden Shadow Snake Hand technique of Mitarashi Anko and her father, which involves carving a summoning jutsu on their arms so they can summon ninja snakes at any time.

I never expected the Shadow Serpent Hand technique to be so complex, with psychic abilities at its core, and it's an almost instantaneous psychic technique at that.

Mitarashi Anko glanced at the other two; Dokkura Kyou had already collapsed.

Du Lejiong was too weak. He was an adult ninja, an adult Chunin wearing a Rock Ninja vest. He beat Du Lejiong like a son, and Du Lejiong didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Not all bottom-ranked cars are bottom-ranked cars, but most bottom-ranked cars are truly bottom-ranked cars.

The Iwa ninja squad leader jumped a meter above Uchiha Ryo's head, but Uchiha Ryo was still lost in thought, seemingly preoccupied with something.

The next instant, Mitarashi Anko saw Uchiha Ryo's eyes change and he vanished in a flash!

That's a super fast teleportation technique!
