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

Explosion Release: Hunter descends down the tree trunk, raising his hand to strike two points on the trunk, one above and one below.

The two explosions blasted out a tree trunk that was more than ten meters long and more than two meters thick.

Finally, it struck the bottom of the tree trunk, sending it hurtling towards Uchiha Ryo like a cannonball.

That's incredibly fast!

Is this the strength of an elite Jonin? Uchiha Tetsuha's mind went blank, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

Having obtained the Sharingan, Uchiha Ryo was already prepared.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

The main body and the shadow clone slammed into the ground at the same time, and two thick earthen walls rose up from the ground.

The flying tree trunk smashed through the first earthen wall but was stopped by the second earthen wall.

In the distance, Uchiha Hachiho had already killed four Iwa ninja with his ninja sword, creating an opening in the encirclement.

"Retreat! Uchiha Ryo and I will cover the retreat!"

Tian Da and the others quickly fled in the direction opened by Uchiha Yatsuho.

Uchiha Hachiro and Uchiha Rin walked side by side at the back.

Uchiha Hachimoku said, "I am not very good at genjutsu. My genjutsu level is average among the Uchiha clan."

I'm trying to distract him with illusion magic. Ling, you stop the attack from Explosive Release: Hunting.

"Alright, Yatsushiro-senpai."

With repeated genjutsu interference, coupled with the fact that Uchiha Rin's combination of water and lightning ninjutsu countered Explosion Release, Explosion Release Hunter's desire to pursue was not very strong, and the group was able to escape.

After escaping danger, the group fled south towards the defense zone.

Uchiha Ryo asked, "Eighth Hokage-senpai, should we return directly to the main camp and report the information about the Explosion Release: Hunting to the main camp?"

Uchiha Hachimoku shook his head: "We cannot abandon the defense zone, otherwise it will be considered as abandoning the mission."

Even if they are being chased by the Explosion Release Hunters, they must maneuver around the vicinity of the defense zone to keep track of the Explosion Release Hunters' movements and prevent them from crossing the border to attack the villages and towns of the Land of Fire.

This situation is also quite common; ninjas call it "defensive zone entanglement."

Upon returning to Zone 81, Uchiha Ryo found Anko and the others.

"The elite Jonin from Iwagakure, using the Explosion Release: Hunting Form, is here. Holding out here is suicide. Let's avoid their initial onslaught and begin close combat within our defensive zone!"

Du Lejiong glanced at Sarutobi Miyagi, who was sitting on the ground injured, and gave Uchiha Ryo a questioning look.

Uchiha Ryo looked at Mitarashi Anko.

Hongdou said, "We can't abandon our teammate; we have to carry him along."

Unexpectedly, Sarutobi Miyagi stood up from the ground and said, "I'm still in good condition. At least I can run. I won't hold you back."

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha gathered a total of 13 people and began playing a cat-and-mouse game with the Explosion Release: Hunting forces from a distance.

During the break, a newly joined civilian ninja approached Tian Da and whispered:

"Uchiha Hachiho is usually not well-known. I thought he was just a bloodline ninja who rose to Jonin status by using the Sharingan. I never expected that Uchiha Hachiho could actually fight against Explosion Release: Hunting."

Tian shook his head: "It wasn't Uchiha Yatsuhoku who fought against Explosion Release: Hunting. Uchiha Yatsuhoku was a taijutsu-type ninja who was skilled in the combination of taijutsu and Sharingan."

What gave Explosion Release Hunter a real headache was Uchiha Rin, that genin.

"A genin? Uchiha Ryo is only a few years old, not even ten, right?"

"I asked around; he's a nine-year-old genin who graduated early. His chakra reserves are greater than those of adult ninjas, he knows all five elemental ninjutsu, and from what I've observed, his Body Flicker Technique is also quite exquisite. He has no weaknesses!"

"How could a nine-year-old Uchiha have built his power system to be so flawless?"

"Yes, that's what genius is."

Soon, a few hours later, the newly joined team witnessed Uchiha Rin's ninjutsu talent.

After creating shadow clones, the combination of Water Release and Lightning Release allowed them to hold out against Explosion Release for a period of time.

While Explosion Release: Hunter was held back, Uchiha Yatsuho led his men to deal with Explosion Release: Hunter's subordinates.

With his three-tomoe Sharingan combined with solid taijutsu and swordsmanship, Uchiha Hachiho was like a warrior unleashed, taking down Iwa ninjas one by one with a single strike.

It wasn't until the Explosion Release: Hunting Technique shifted its target that the Eighth Hokage led his men to retreat.

After three days of this stalemate, six more people from Konoha died before reinforcements finally arrived.

Jonin Sarutobizo arrived at the northern border with nine rotating defense squads and a second-line support squad.

From zone 80 to zone 88, the area was completely devastated; no squad could hold their ground in their assigned zone.

Fortunately, not all of Konoha's ninjas were killed. The surviving ninjas, under the command of Jonin Uchiha Hachiro, fought against the Iwa ninjas and held off the Explosion Release: Hunting forces.

Sarutobi Zang stood on a rock with his arms crossed, looking down at Uchiha Yatsuho:

"Uchiha Hachiho, I never thought you'd be in such a sorry state."

Isn't it said that when you encounter the Uchiha on the battlefield, you should never fight them alone, and you must have a sufficient number of people to fight them?

"Uchiha Eighth Hokage, where is the pride of your Uchiha clan?"

Uchiha Yatsuhoku snorted coldly, sheathed his ninja sword back into its scabbard on his back, and silently left.

They are no longer needed here; the command has sent in new reinforcements.

The fact that the Eighth Hokage Uchiha was silent does not mean that the other Uchiha clan members were silent.

As Uchiha Ryo walked past Sarutobizo, he turned his head and said:

"We'll slow down because you're no match for Explosion Release Hunter. You'll be begging for help in your pants when you're done. I hope you can be as tough as you were just now."

Sarutobi was taken aback. How dare a mere Uchiha genin, who didn't even have a Chunin title, speak to him like that?

Just as Sarutobi Zang was about to make a move, Sarutobi Miyagi blocked Uchiha Ryo's path.

"Uncle, I want to stay too."

Sarutobizo valued his nephew Miyagi very much. He didn't know why his nephew was speaking up for the Uchiha, but he was prepared to give his nephew face.

"Alright, then you stay. The Sarutobi clan will clean up the mess that the Uchiha clan couldn't hold."

After Uchiha Yatsuho, Tanaka, and the others had walked away, Sarutobi Miyagi whispered to Sarutobi Zō:

"Uncle, Uchiha Ryo is a ninja of all five elements! He used ordinary water and lightning ninjutsu to delay Explosion Release: Hunt's bloodline limit ninjutsu!"

Explosion Release is a fusion of Fire Release and Earth Release. Uchiha Ryo's mastery of the five elemental ninjutsu is extremely refined, demonstrating a unique understanding of ninjutsu.

Upon hearing that Uchiha Ryo was a ninja of the five elemental attributes, Sarutobi Zang became serious.

No one values ​​the five elemental ninjas more than the Sarutobi clan; the Sarutobi clan dreams of replicating their clan leader, Hiruzen.

"Alright, I will inform Chief Hiruzen of this matter as soon as possible."

Half a day later, an explosion sent Sarutobi flying.

Sarutobi Kurama rolled several times after landing before getting up. Seeing Sarutobi Miyagi returning from behind, he asked:

"Have you found Uchiha Hachimoku and the others? We need reinforcements!"

Sarutobi Miyagi shook his head: "They're moving too fast. They've been walking for seven or eight hours. I can't catch up."

Sarutobi cursed under his breath, "Damn Uchiha!" He guessed that Uchiha Rin was just teasing him when he said they would slow down. In reality, Uchiha Hachiro and the others were probably running so fast their tongues were practically sticking out.
