I, Uchiha: Split Konoha

Chapter 342 Sasuke's Team Launches a Surprise Attack on Turtle Island

While the battle raged fiercely on the front lines, an elite squad emerged on the vast sea.

"When will this ever end? It's been so long, and all we see is the ocean."

A thick, large snake swam swiftly across the black surface, while several figures stood on its back, the one grumbling being Hozuki Suigetsu.

The elite team consists of four members: Hozuki Suigetsu, Jugo, Uchiha Sasuke, and Uzumaki Naruto, along with Deidara riding a clay bird in the sky.

Sasuke Uchiha calmly watched the small snake swim back, but when he still couldn't find it, even he frowned with some impatience.

"Sasuke, the battle has already begun on the front lines, yet we're supposed to be searching for some Turtle Island on this vast ocean."

Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help but grumble as well. After drifting on the sea for so long, even they, as ninjas, were starting to get a little irritable.

Only Shigeo remained calm, peacefully playing with the birds flying in the sky. He was somewhat fascinated and fond of this environment.

"Sasuke, why did we come here instead of going to the battlefield?"

Hearing Naruto's rant, Sasuke Uchiha waved his hand impatiently and said, "Naruto, our target this time is the Daimyo of the various ninja countries."

Hozuki Suigetsu, always eager for trouble, immediately started talking excitedly after hearing this.

"This Shinobi World War has only just begun, but its scale is the largest in the Shinobi World. All the daimyo of the Shinobi World are involved. In order to maintain their status, these daimyo have joined forces with the so-called ninja villages to form the so-called Allied Shinobi Forces."

"These daimyo have gone into hiding. According to information revealed by Kakashi-senpai, they are hiding at sea, which is the only way to avoid being detected."

Sasuke, standing on the snake's head, nodded and said, "That's right. The Hidden Cloud Village is near the sea, and according to some classified intelligence, there is a mobile turtle island in the Hidden Cloud Village's top secrets. This place was once used as a secret training ground for perfect Jinchuriki, and it is also the most suitable place to hide."

"Found it!"

Just then, Jugo suddenly uttered two words, instantly attracting the attention of the three.

Jugo was teasing a few seagulls with his finger, pointing north with a big smile. "These birds were on the island two days ago, but we haven't been able to find them since."

"An island that even animals can't find—that can only be a moving island, Turtle Island!"

Hozuki Suigetsu said excitedly, while Sasuke's lips curled into a smile, "Now that we've found our target, we need to find him. Two days ago, we'll need Naruto to help."

Under Naruto's questioning gaze, Sasuke Uchiha immediately formed hand seals and cast a summoning jutsu.

Spiritual Arts

With a bang, as the huge plume of white smoke dissipated, a group of eagles flapping their wings appeared before us, numbering more than thirty.

"Naruto, with your Shadow Clone Jutsu and the Hawk, we can definitely find Onigashima's location as quickly as possible."

"Haha!" Naruto Uzumaki laughed loudly at this, forming hand seals and shouting, "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Rumble~

In an instant, hundreds of shadow clones appeared, each one loudly leaping onto the eagle and flying away. As a result, quite a few shadow clones remained, and they immediately started arguing.

Even though he was used to seeing this scene, Sasuke Uchiha's lips still twitched, feeling that Naruto's brain hadn't grown much.

At this moment, Deidara, riding his clay bird, laughed and joked, "Leave the rest to me."

The eerie palms and mouths spat out mouthfuls of white clay, which then transformed into white clay birds, allowing the remaining Narutos to sit on them.

In an instant, a wave of probes was released to examine Naruto, which shows that Naruto's chakra reserves are enormous.

"Prepare for battle!"

After calmly saying something, Sasuke Uchiha glanced at Naruto again, seemingly without leaving a trace.

"Although these daimyo are hiding on the moving tortoise island, their guards are definitely not weak, after all, this is a gathering of all the daimyo in the ninja world."

Riding a giant clay bird, Deidara exclaimed excitedly, "Haha, this time I'm going to show these daimyo true art!"

……

The next morning, while Deidara was fiddling with his clay on the giant bird, he suddenly sensed something, and a smile slowly crept onto his lips.

"Found it."

The clouds and mist on the sea had not yet dissipated, but the appearance of the giant tortoise island was already visible. It was indeed a huge, moving island.

"Sasuke!"

Upon seeing this, Sasuke Uchiha immediately smiled. "Prepare for battle. Be careful; the defenses of these daimyo are definitely not weak."

Even so, Uchiha Sasuke directly formed hand seals and slammed them onto the sea surface.

Boom!

Amidst the surging water, a gigantic serpent with enormous purple stripes appeared—the infamous Manda, a fearsome figure in the ninja world.

"Uchiha brat."

When Manda saw that the person it summoned was Sasuke, it immediately revealed its unruly eyes, though it had become much more restrained than before.

After all, Uchiha Yoru and Orochimaru injected him with a drug to help him evolve once again, which was more effective than any sacrifice.

Of course, Manda's personality was still as wicked as ever. It was only because he knew Sasuke Uchiha and knew that the other party possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan that he restrained himself somewhat.

Looking at the unruly Manda, Sasuke Uchiha frowned slightly. He actually preferred the gentle Ao-da, but unfortunately, he needed Manda's power right now.

"Manda, this is Turtle Island. I suppose this offering should be enough for you to eat your fill."

The enormous snake eyes stared at the hazy Turtle Island in the distance, and the myriad snakes immediately revealed bloodthirsty eyes.

"This brat from the Uchiha clan is good."

Manda's enormous body surged directly in the seawater. Before leaving, Sasuke Uchiha reminded him, "Be careful, there are still quite a few ninjas on the island."

However, he was met with a huge splash of water. At that moment, Deidara in the sky spat out white clay from his mouths and it fell into the sea with a thud, then turned into jellyfish and swam around.

The monstrous snake moved even faster in the water, like a purple lightning bolt, appearing as a black shadow flashing rapidly in the sky.

They arrived directly in front of the enormous tortoise island. Fortunately, after Wanshe's enhancement, its body was in no way inferior to the tortoise island.

Rumble~

In an instant, water splashed everywhere, and a purple, ferocious snake head emerged, creating a towering wave.

The thick, purple serpent quickly wrapped itself around Turtle Island, causing the island to tremble instantly.

"Art is an explosion!"

Just then, the clay from the seawater adhered to the belly of Turtle Island, and with Deidara's excited shout from the sky, a huge explosion suddenly occurred underwater.

Rumble~

Amidst the splashing and churning water, the massive turtle island let out a painful howl, its usually hidden turtle head surfacing in agony as it screamed.

On Turtle Island.

"Oh no! Someone has hacked us!"

The sensory ninjas instantly detected the enemy invasion, and the guard ninjas on Turtle Island appeared in an instant.

Meanwhile, the daimyo hidden deep within the palace on Turtle Island all revealed their anger.

"Damn it, these lowly tools actually dared to attack us!"

These daimyo never imagined that Uchiha Yoru would actually attack them; otherwise, he wouldn't have come to assault them.

They hid so far away, yet they were still found. It would be a lie to say they weren't deliberately plotting something.

"Lord Daimyo, target spotted."

"The targets are Konoha ninjas Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, Hozuki Suigetsu, and Akatsuki member Deidara."

The daimyo of the Land of Lightning and the daimyo of the Land of Earth exchanged a glance and said in deep voices, "This place has been exposed. Kill all the invading ninjas."

"yes!"

As the guards left, the two exchanged a glance, and the daimyo of the Land of Lightning spoke first in a deep voice: "We have been exposed, and Uchiha Yoru is far too audacious."

"Good. While these ninjas are fighting amongst themselves, let's move to the next shelter."

A cunning rabbit has three burrows; how could these powerful figures only have Turtle Island as an option? They certainly wouldn't put themselves in danger.

……

Rumble~

"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

With a shout, Naruto instantly created hundreds of clones, which rushed towards Turtle Island from all directions, while being bombarded by various hidden weapons and ninjutsu.

Hozuki Suigetsu also began to attack the island using water-style techniques. However, the water-style attacks, which had a huge range, also exposed the island's barrier.

"No wonder even our senses couldn't detect any trace of Turtle Island; it turns out there's a barrier."

Hozuki Suigetsu looked on with an expression of understanding upon seeing this scene, but upon seeing the number of ninjas emerging from Turtle Island, he couldn't help but shout, "Sasuke, why aren't you coming to help?"

Meanwhile, Sasuke, who was still on the sea, took out a trident kunai from his ninja tool bag, which was engraved with the Flying Thunder God mark.

"Green Snake!"

As Sasuke Uchiha gave a cold shout at the giant snake beneath his feet, a docile snake head emerged and bit the kunai that Sasuke had thrown at him.

Lightning Release: Chidori

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by the cry of a thousand birds. Uchiha Sasuke had already stormed onto Turtle Island with lightning speed.

"Kill! Protect the daimyo! Kill the invaders!"

A group of people roared with unwavering loyalty. Among them were ninjas, monks, and samurai, a motley crew of all sorts.

But all they saw was a will to die and anger. They had been raised by the daimyo since childhood, and the daimyo was the embodiment of a god. This belief was deeply ingrained in them, and this was everything they were meant to protect in their lifetime.

Facing these people, Sasuke Uchiha's eyes flashed with a six-pointed star Mangekyou Sharingan, a hint of pity that instantly turned into icy coldness.

"The emergence of a new era will inevitably crush you, the old generation!"

This is not just about vying for supremacy, but also about the changing of the old era. Uchiha Sasuke naturally knew that the stubbornness of the old era could only serve as nourishment.

Lightning Release: Thousand Birds

With a wave of his hand, countless bolts of lightning flashed, and a thousand lightning releases shot out in all directions. The next moment, Uchiha Sasuke drew the chakra metal sword from his waist and charged into the crowd.

Lightning Release: Chidori Stream

"what!"

The screams rose and fell. Sasuke Uchiha's strength was now considered strong even among Kage-level fighters, especially with the existence of the Mangekyou Sharingan, which directly elevated his overall strength.

The Mangekyou Sharingan truly lives up to its reputation as the darling of this world. Once activated, Sasuke Uchiha experienced a rapid increase in his physical constitution, chakra, and mental strength within a very short period of time.

Through years of training, Uchiha Sasuke has barely reached the level of a Kage. With his three tomoe, he is definitely a regular Kage. He may not be as strong as a powerful Kage, but he is about the same as the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa.

After awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, his chakra increased by more than half in a short period of time, and his physical attributes entered a period of explosive growth.

Even without the Mangekyou Sharingan, Sasuke Uchiha's combat strength is still considered quite good among Kage-level fighters.

Rumble~

With various ninjutsu techniques unleashed, Sasuke Uchiha coldly shouted, "Naruto, quickly enter Sage Mode!"

With Sasuke's cold shout, Naruto, who was ready, immediately entered Sage Mode.

Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki's combat power far exceeds that of ordinary Kage-level powerhouses. In addition, with the assistance of Deidara, a Kage-level powerhouse in the sky, and the two powerhouses, Suigetsu Hozuki and Jugo, who can barely be considered Kage-level, they also have the strength to fight.

Although the number of people on Turtle Island was large and they were elite, they still showed signs of weakness when facing five Kage-level fighters.

"Kill! Kill these rebellious ninjas!"

"Kill for the sake of your name!"

This group of people were either suicide soldiers or loyal warriors, charging forward with mad roars, showing no fear of death.

Meanwhile, in Konoha, thousands of miles away...

"Sasuke's Flying Thunder God Seal is reacting!"

On the rooftop of the movie theater, the Fifth Hokage Tsunade, the Mizukage Mei Terumi, and the Kazekage Yoruichi stood majestically, with a densely packed elite squad of a hundred people in front of them.

Those wearing masks were the elite of the Dark Division.

"Gentlemen, do you understand your mission this time?"

As Tsunade gave her cold shout, the eyes of the hundred elite Anbu members before her were filled with determination.

The Fifth Mizukage, Terumi, was also on the list, and this time she personally led the expedition.

Spiritual Arts

As Tsunade slammed her hand on the ground, she instantly summoned a slug. The giant slug instantly collapsed into smaller ones, which crawled onto everyone's shoulders.

Each slug contained a massive amount of chakra transferred from Tsunade.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that the first time we officially used this ninjutsu, we would have to teleport a hundred people. This is quite a lot of pressure."

Genma Shiranui, with a senbon dangling from the corner of his mouth, spoke jokingly, but he showed no sign of relaxation; instead, he was filled with seriousness.

"Genma Squad, watch out this time!"

The three members of the Genma Squad—Genma Shiranui, Raido Namiashi, and Deivashi—stood in a triangular formation with resolute smiles.

In the center were a hundred elite ANBU soldiers, personally led by the Fifth Mizukage.

Mei Terumi laughed lightly and said, "Don't worry, this time the candidates are all elite members of the Anbu, and many of them are proficient in tracking ninjutsu. They will definitely return victorious."

Tsunade said in a deep voice with a solemn expression, "Be careful. It's no joke that the daimyo have been able to stand in the ninja world for over a thousand years. The Fire Temple alone was proficient in Sage Mode back then, and other daimyo may not be without such abilities."

"Ready!"

As Genma Shiranui, Raido Namiashi, and Deivashi shouted in unison, their expressions turned solemn, and they instantly entered a certain state—the Sage Mode of the Fire Temple. With their eyes closed, they sensed the Flying Thunder God mark.

Flying Thunder Formation Technique

In an instant, on the rooftop of the Konoha Shadow Building, the Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, and her hundreds of elite Anbu members vanished.
