Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 27 Mission Complete (Please continue reading)

After waiting for two days, Uchiha Yoichi finally got his chance.

One of the Iwata clan's samurai went out and was spotted and followed by Uchiha Yoichi. After he had gone quite far from the Iwata clan's residence, Kakashi found an opportunity when no one was paying attention and captured the samurai using Earth Release.

"If it's just about completing tasks, there's no need to go through all this trouble."

Kakashi couldn't help but complain that if they had just followed the mission requirements and only dealt with Iwata Kumaji, they could have cut down Uchiha Yoichi's plan as much as possible, saving a lot of trouble.

"Don't question the captain's plan. Learn from Kakashi, if you're not careful, you'll lose several lives when you lead a team on missions in the future."

After saying that, Uchiha Yoichi used his Sharingan genjutsu to get all the information about the Iwata family, the most important of which was about the guards around Iwata Kumaji.

Finally, he asked where the Iwata family's treasury was located, and young Kakashi, who was standing nearby, immediately gave him a disdainful look.

However, Uchiha Yoichi didn't care at all. Once you become a ninja, you shouldn't think you're so righteous. Ninjas are, to put it nicely, extraordinary ability users who maintain peace; to put it bluntly, they are knives in the hands of the ruling class.

Money can buy many things: chakra metal, secret medicine, hiring others to do things—none of these require money.

After obtaining the information, Uchiha Yoichi used genjutsu to place commands in his mind, and also made him bring out another samurai friend, whom he then controlled using Sharingan genjutsu.

Uchiha Yoichi distributed the explosive tags to the two men, instructing them to hide them close to their bodies.

After that, he kidnapped two merchants employed by nobles in the Land of Earth and obtained all the information before preparing to carry out the plan with Kakashi.

----------

In the dead of night, a thunderous roar suddenly resounded in the capital of the Grass Kingdom, instantly waking many people from their sleep.

The Iwata family's warehouse suddenly exploded, killing half of the people instantly. The survivors were stunned and bewildered for a while.

After recovering from their shock, the Iwata family members shouted that they were going to report to the head of the family!

These people had a rough idea of ​​how much the goods inside were worth—at least a hundred million taels of silver. If they were lost in the explosion, their entire families, including the servants, would suffer the consequences.

"Master, master!"

After the warehouse manager ran back to the Iwata residence, he shouted in a panic. When Iwata Kumaji came out, he burst into tears.

"Master, something terrible has happened! The warehouse suddenly exploded, and everything inside has been burned!"

"What!?"

When Iwata Kumaji heard the news, he almost couldn't catch his breath.

All the goods he recently bought were stored in his own warehouse. With this explosion, the Iwata family's assets will shrink by at least 50%!

"What on earth is going on?!"

With bloodshot eyes, Iwata Kumaji roared and asked, but the warehouse manager couldn't give a coherent answer. He stammered and knelt down, begging for mercy, repeating only one sentence over and over: hoping that he could be forgiven for committing seppuku.

"Get out of here! Take me to the warehouse and quickly gather everyone to put out the fire! If you can't save my goods, your whole family will have to commit seppuku!"

"Iwata Kumaji said angrily, and then walked out without even putting on his clothes."

However, a burly grass ninja blocked Iwata Kumaji's path and said to him, "Lord Iwata, this could be the work of the enemy. I told you a couple of days ago that ninjas have been frequently appearing at your residence."

Iwata Kumaji suddenly remembered this matter, but that batch of goods was very important to him. Although life was precious, money was just as precious.

"Akutagawa-kun, have all the guards in my household come with me, and you all come with me too. Let's go check on the warehouse. This is very important to me!"

"Iwata-sama."

"Stop talking and let's get going!"

Seeing that Iwata Kumaji had made up his mind, the Akutagawa ninja stopped trying to dissuade him and had no choice but to call on their squad. Then, the guards from the Iwata residence followed Iwata Kumaji on his journey.

However, when they were halfway there, Iwata Kumaji's group was suddenly stopped by several people who shouted insults at him.

"Iwata-kun, come out and give me an explanation!"

The one who spoke was naturally Uchiha Yoichi. After obtaining information using genjutsu, he acted very much like a merchant from the Land of Earth; moreover, he knew when to be arrogant and when to be cautious.

"Why are you stopping me? Let Iwata Kumaji come out and see me!"

It's Tojiro-kun! Oh no, how did they get the news so quickly!

Iwata Kumaji inwardly cried out in alarm, but still ordered his guards to invite Tsuchijiro and his group in. He then said apologetically, "Tsuchijiro-kun, it's so late."

"Stop talking, Iwata-kun. I'm not an idiot. My men just reported the warehouse explosion to me. Can we still deliver the goods we agreed on? You know I've already paid for them!"

"You know the relationship between Minister Kawaki and Iwagakure. If this shipment is delayed, the next ones to arrive will be Iwagakure ninjas!"

"Don't worry, Tojiro-kun, I'll go check right away and make sure you can take the goods away in time."

Kumaji Iwata wiped the sweat from his brow and shouted at his men, "Hurry up! Get moving!"

The others didn't dare to look or listen too much, including the group of Grass Ninja. For the Grass Ninja, the Rock Ninja were not people they could mess with at all. If they said anything out of turn, they might get themselves into big trouble.

As they approached the Iwata family's warehouse, two figures suddenly sprang out of the darkness, shouted "Kill!", and attacked the Iwata family's troops.

"Lightning Release: Earth Walk!"

"Cloud Ninja Secret Technique: Lightning Blade Slash!"

It was actually just a normal Lightning Release chakra slash, but Uchiha Yoichi's shadow clone deliberately shouted it out loud in order to frame the Cloud Ninja.

"It's the enemy, Lord Iwata! Be careful!"

Kusanagi Akutagawa shouted loudly, then cursed inwardly, "How did Iwata Kumaji get involved with the Cloud Ninja? And that thing wrapped in lightning must be the Cloud Ninja's Lightning Release Chakra Mode."

Four grass ninjas formed a small team and stood guard in front of Iwata Kumaji's carriage.

However, the other guards of the Iwata family were no match for Kakashi and Uchiha Yoichi. Even if they were shadow clones, they were only Chunin-level shadow clones, not to mention that Uchiha Yoichi also had the strength of a special Jonin.

Apart from the two samurai controlled by his Sharingan who were slowly retreating towards the Grass Ninja, the others were basically powerless against Kakashi and Uchiha Yoichi's shadow clones.

"Damn it, don't be so arrogant, Cloud Ninja!"

Kusanagi Akutagawa shouted, then formed hand seals, and a dozen lantern-shaped fireballs appeared around him. "Fire Release: Demon Lantern!"

"Captain, I'll help too! Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Akutagawa and another Grass Ninja stepped forward and used ninjutsu to directly suppress Kakashi and Uchiha Yoichi's shadow clones. With the help of Fire Release ninjutsu and the attacks of others, the two shadow clones even appeared to be in a precarious situation.

However, at this moment, the real Uchiha Yangyi gave Kakashi a wink, and the latter immediately understood and formed hand seals.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

Suddenly, a high earthen wall separated the carriage from the battlefield ahead, and Uchiha Yoichi, his body crackling with dazzling lightning, struck with lightning speed, severing the heads of Iwata Kumaji and another grass ninja with a single slash.

His eyes instantly transformed into Sharingan, and he locked eyes with the red-haired female ninja, unleashing a genjutsu that rendered her powerless to resist.

Moreover, at the same instant Kakashi used Earth Release ninjutsu, two samurai controlled by Sharingan genjutsu also dropped their weapons and pounced on the two grass ninjas using ninjutsu.

boom!
