Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 91 Sand Ninja Raid

"Women who stay at home all the time are so easy to fool; they have no sense of right and wrong."

Uchiha Yoichi glanced at the note of promise left by Lady Mikoto. Her gentle, radiant aura after her bath almost made this ascetic ninja, who had been practicing asceticism for nearly three years, lose his composure.

He will get his revenge on the clan chief's wife for the injustices he suffered before!

He needs to keep this carefully; now is not the time.

Mikoto Uchiha is just intimidated right now; she will likely regain her senses later.

The reason why Uchiha Yoichi continued to have Uchiha Mikoto busy with the Uchiha welfare system was to keep her by his side and constantly reinforce his commands and Mikoto's sense of guilt.

Moreover, he did need someone to run errands. Elder Kenji introduced him to many clansmen who were good at business and dealing with others, but they were all sent out by Uchiha Yoichi.

After the last clan meeting, two more people were introduced and were also assigned by Uchiha Yang to take over the clan's military equipment and weapons business.

Right now, Uchiha Yoichi doesn't have a single errand boy by his side.

We need someone to act as a liaison!

As for whether Uchiha Fugaku would be willing to give Mikoto Uchiha this role, if Mikoto showed even the slightest sign of reluctance, Fugaku would probably beg her to come and help Uchiha Yoichi.

I'll also help him gather some intelligence.

Given Mikoto Uchiha's personality, if Fugaku Uchiha asked her, she would definitely tell him what she knew; however, that would be all, and they would be powerless to do anything about it after that.

Aside from knowing how much money Uchiha Yoichi could earn and how much he spent each month bribing his clansmen, Uchiha Fugaku had no other options.

Aside from obtaining firsthand data and information, Mikoto Uchiha couldn't withdraw a single penny; her entire staff consisted of Elder Kenji and his men.

The more he knew, the more desperate Fugaku Uchiha might become. Apart from the title of clan leader and the support of that group of pacifists, he couldn't do anything. Even the families of those pacifist ninjas were receiving money from Yoichi Uchiha.

If they were to say anything bad about Uchiha Yoichi when they got home, it would immediately cause discord within the family.

Family or beliefs—these people have to choose one!

After thinking it over for a while, Uchiha Yoichi became even more certain that he should have Uchiha Mikoto, the clan head's wife, act as his errand girl. If the clan head hadn't mentioned it at the clan meeting, he really wouldn't have thought of this.

------------

Rumble!

An explosion suddenly rang out in the darkness, followed by a burst of flames.

"It's a Konoha ninja! That ninjutsu is Konoha's Yellow Flash!!"

Upon discovering the lurking ninja's spiral-shaped ninjutsu and blond hair, the Sand Ninja's rapid march immediately realized who the enemy was.

Although Minato Namikaze is now famous in the ninja world, he has not yet reached the point where Iwagakure would issue an order that "upon seeing the Yellow Flash, you can abandon the mission and retreat immediately."

Minato Namikaze was only just beginning to gain fame in the ninja world.

Moreover, this is a forced march by the Sand Ninja. There are five hundred Sand Ninja here, as well as many strong Sand Ninja. Even if they encounter the White Fang of Konoha, they dare to go for it.

"Kill him! Don't let him take the message back!"

At his command, more than a dozen Sand Ninja followed immediately. Those who dared to charge forward after hearing the name of the Yellow Flash were all confident in their own strength.

A sensory ninja immediately used ninjutsu and shouted, "I've locked onto him, he can't escape!"

"Chase!"

Seeing Minato Namikaze escape using the Body Flicker Technique, the Sand Ninja also used the Body Flicker Technique to give chase.

Their team's intelligence absolutely cannot be leaked, so we must leave the Golden Flash behind today.

After chasing for a while, Minato Namikaze sensed the number of people chasing him from behind, then stopped and pulled out eight Flying Thunder God kunai with both hands.

He said calmly, "Let's take care of you first."

The kunai was thrown out, and the Sand Ninja chasing after them was initially wary upon seeing it. However, seeing that Minato Namikaze had thrown the kunai crookedly, they couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous.

One of the kunai was even thrown onto the ground at his feet, prompting the Sand Ninja puppeteer to scoff.

"Golden glitter is nothing more than..."

Before he could finish speaking, Minato Namikaze appeared in front of him in an instant, coldly slashing his neck with a kunai.

puff!

"I'm sorry, this is war."

Before he could finish speaking, Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer the kunai to the next target. Blue chakra quickly condensed into a Rasengan in his hand, shattering the opponent's weapon, and then he pressed it hard against the opponent's abdomen.

Another kill!

Using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Minato Namikaze appeared behind the third person, thrusting a kunai into the heart of the Sand Ninja before teleporting away again before blood spurted out.

The fourth time, a kunai pierced the brain through the eyes.

The fifth teleportation, the Rasengan hit the heart.

In the darkness, Minato Namikaze was like a grim reaper, using the Flying Thunder God Technique to repeatedly dart in front of his enemies. His casual kunai and Rasengan left the Sand Ninjas with no time to react before they lost their lives!

In just three seconds, six elite Sand Ninja died at the hands of Minato Namikaze.

Often, the Sand Ninja would only see his yellow hair before the person facing him was already dead.

"The seventh one"

puff!

This was a mistake, and Minato Namikaze's eyes narrowed.

He didn't make a mistake; it was the sand ninja who was suddenly pulled backward by the golden sand that appeared under his feet, causing his kunai to only cut a wound on the opponent's shoulder.

"Golden Flash, that's too arrogant!"

When Luo Sha arrived, he was filled with rage upon seeing how many of his fellow villagers had been lost in such a short time.

Moreover, he had just noticed that Minato Namikaze's Body Flicker Technique, which was so fast that he couldn't see his figure, was used to locate and teleport using kunai, and he just happened to know Magnet Release!

"Magnetic Escape·Golden Burial!"

Rasa clasped his hands together, and a surge of intense chakra erupted from his body. Then, golden sand suddenly burst forth from the ground within a radius of over a hundred meters, completely covering all of Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God kunai.

"Is this the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release?"

Minato Namikaze was shocked by the situation before him. The only thing he feared with his Flying Thunder God Technique was Magnet Release, which manipulates metal.

The Flying Thunder God kunai that had just been thrown out had been gathered together by the golden sand, rendering it useless for teleportation.

Whoosh!

Minato Namikaze threw three Flying Thunder God kunai at Rasa, but Rasa waved his hand and used Magnet Release to freeze the kunai in mid-air.

"Just as I expected."

Minato Namikaze inwardly cursed. Although he could plant the Flying Thunder God mark anywhere, he would at least need to use a Flying Thunder God kunai to get close to his opponent. Now, this place had become his opponent's home ground.

"Golden Hands!"

Suddenly, the gold dust ocean on the ground extended out giant sand palms one after another. Minato Namikaze jumped away three times, but was caught by the giant sand dust palms on the last time.

Fortunately, he instantly used Rasengan to shatter the giant sand palm.

"Magnet Release, Gold Sand... You must be Rasa, the disciple of the Third Kazekage!"

Minato Namikaze looked at Rasa with a serious expression. This man was putting a lot of pressure on him. The cohesive power of the gold dust was great, and it was difficult for the Rasengan to break through it. Moreover, his Flying Thunder God Kunai had been seen through. Before he could plant the mark at close range, there was not much he could do.

"Your presence here suggests that you Sand Ninja have some grand schemes up your sleeves? Are you planning to start a war?!"

"Go ask your question in the underworld!"

"Golden Burial!"

Rasa looked at Minato Namikaze as if he were already dead. After putting his hands together, he summoned a nearly 100-meter-high gold sand wave from the ground, which, like a real tsunami, rushed towards Minato Namikaze.

Rasa erected sand walls around them, and Rasa could control them instantly with his Flying Thunder God Kunai. Today, they had to kill Konoha's Yellow Flash.

"Truly impressive."

Minato Namikaze's expression was grave. If he didn't escape, he would have no choice but to summon Gamabunta to fight back; however, there was no need for that. He had already probed some of Rasa's strength, so there was no need to fight to the death any longer.

Swish!

Minato Namikaze's sudden disappearance caused Rasa to frown deeply.

He gathered all the kunai that had been moved together, and he hadn't seen any kunai that had been missed.

"Tomus, where is he?"

"Lord Kazekage, I can no longer sense him. Just a moment ago, the golden flash broke free of my sensory lock."

The sensory ninja named Tomus quickly said that, in theory, if one senses a point of lock-on, one can catch up with the enemy within two kilometers, but just now he suddenly lost his senses of Minato Namikaze.

In that case, there's only one possibility: the other party has already teleported away using that ninjutsu, and the distance is more than two kilometers.

Rasa said with a grim expression, "So you left behind kunai to escape beforehand? Humph!"

"Take your companion's body back and continue your journey."

With the main force discovered, news of what happened here will likely reach Konoha soon, so he can't afford to delay any longer.

Back with his unit, Rasa immediately summoned a messenger ninja and ordered him to send a message to the village: "Move Bunpuku to the front lines!"

Originally, according to the plan, Bunpuku would not appear on the battlefield in the form of the One-Tail until at least the middle and later stages of the war, but now an unexpected event has occurred, and their marching plan has been learned by the Konoha ninja.

Giving up the war is absolutely impossible. Rasa needs this victory to solidify his position as the Fourth Kazekage. He wants to use a surprise attack with overwhelming power to gain a favorable position in the war against Konoha.

On the other side!

Minato Namikaze appeared at a pile of rocks. Teleporting such a long distance had directly depleted 30-40% of his chakra, and his face had turned pale.

After quickly taking out the soldier's ration pills and swallowing them, Minato Namikaze quietly waited for his chakra to recover.

While recovering his chakra, Minato Namikaze took out a map to look at: "Shiki and the others should be here by now. I can meet up with them here, and then we need to get back to the village as soon as possible."

Then Minato closed his eyes and recalled that the direction the Sand Village ninja force had been heading was clearly towards the Land of Rivers, and that the Sand Village had been collecting military supplies recently.

"They're going to start a war!"

Having confirmed this, Minato Namikaze set off ahead of time to meet with Shiki Aburame before his chakra was fully restored, hoping to report the news to the village as soon as possible.

--------------

"Not bad, the three of you have completed a total of twenty D-rank missions, and your control over chakra is pretty much there. Now it's time for the next trial."

Uchiha Yoichi said to the three students in front of him, "Only by mastering chakra can you make better progress. Each of them has a good grasp of chakra now, and they are all considered to be in the top tier among Chunin."

"Teacher Yangyi, what kind of trial do you plan to give us?"

Kurenai asked with a grin. The time they had spent together had given the three of them a better understanding of Uchiha Yoichi's personality.

They perfectly obeyed their teacher's orders during missions and training. In addition, Teacher Yang Yi had a good temper and was not much older than them. He would often generously treat them to meals and didn't care about the money at all.

"kill!"

Uchiha Yoichi said calmly, "Next, I will select C-rank missions specifically for killing. You must quickly adapt to killing the enemy in the shortest amount of time. If anyone dawdles and gives the enemy a chance to counterattack, I will of course spare your lives, but I cannot guarantee that you will not be crippled!"

"Understood, Teacher Yangyi."

The three men replied with serious expressions, saying that this was something they had to face after becoming ninjas; if they didn't even have the resolve to kill their enemies, they would only bring about their own demise.

Although Kurenai and the other two said that, whether they can actually do it remains to be seen.

Kurenai suddenly raised her hand and asked, "Yoichi-sensei, since we're going to be on a C-rank mission, could you teach us some ninjutsu?"

"Ninjutsu."

Uchiha Yoichi glanced at the three students, who seemed to have planned it beforehand, all looking at him with expectant eyes.

"I'll give you some pointers today, but instead of focusing on ninjutsu that's not suitable for you, what you need most right now is to strengthen your strengths."

Uchiha Yoichi then created two more shadow clones, separated the three of them, and gave them instructions.

Teaching Kurenai Yuhi illusion techniques, and how to release illusions in a more covert way, can achieve unexpected results.

He taught Hyuga Satomi how to increase her chakra flow, so that she would be faster and stronger in close combat.

He taught Kazuhiko Chishima the art of ninja tools, giving his thrown weapons the ability to kill twice, which would make his enemies more wary.

These weren't difficult, so Uchiha Yang only gave them one day to practice the skills before they left the village to do a mission the day after tomorrow.

After dispelling the shadow clones, the memories and chakra returned to the original body.

The fatigue upon returning left Uchiha Yoichi somewhat exhausted, especially since he had had Geiz accompany him in training in the courtyard for the entire morning.

"Roar~"

"I haven't even complained about being tired yet, but you're already yelling! Look at all that fat on you!"

Uchiha Yang reached out and patted Geiz's butt. If it weren't for the hair covering it, his two slaps would have created waves of fat.

However, having Geiz practice with gravity techniques is much more effective than wearing weights. Now that Uchiha Yoichi is in Lightning Release Chakra Mode, swords can no longer hurt him.

Neither water-style nor earth-style ninjutsu could do anything to him.

Ding Dong!

Just as Uchiha Yoichi was thinking of having Geiz continue training with him, the doorbell of the front gate suddenly rang.

Upon hearing the doorbell, Uchiha Yang walked towards the door, thinking, "Who could be visiting at this hour?"
