Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 152 Hidden

Inside the medical tent of the Sand Village.

Toshiro, who was lying down, was not asleep.

He was still in danger and remained vigilant throughout the night.

"It's almost time!"

I silently checked the time; there wasn't much time left until dawn.

It's about time to prepare to leave this place where I've spent the whole night.

"This is~"

Just as he opened his eyes and was about to take action, Toshiro sensed that several people were walking towards the location of the tent.

Has it already been exposed?

Toshiro wasn't too surprised that the other party would notice something was wrong.

Although he acted very cleanly when he took action against the original owner of his current identity, it was inevitable that the other party would become suspicious after such a long time.

It's just that the timing is a bit...

Before Toshiro could prepare, the tent flap was pulled open.

A group of four or five ninjas walked in together.

"Lord Yecang, these are all the wounded we've taken in. They've all undergone rigorous examinations and there's nothing wrong with them..."

The medical ninja who led the group of three Jonin in explained the situation as he spoke.

Because the tent was temporary and somewhat cramped, only three wounded soldiers were recuperating inside.

"This person has a broken arm...and this person is..."

He introduced each of the wounded soldiers, explaining their basic information to the three Jonin.

At this moment, the three wounded soldiers who heard the commotion woke up one by one and looked up at the suddenly arrived "adults". For a moment, they were a little confused about what the other party wanted to do at this time.

Could they have come to visit these wounded soldiers...?

The Sand Village doesn't have this tradition!

Ye Cang glanced at the group of people but didn't notice anything unusual. However, he did catch a glimpse of a figure he recognized.

If I remember correctly, I should have seen the other person this evening.

"I'll do it this time!"

At this moment, the puppeteer who had been traveling with Ye Cang spoke up. They had been taking turns conducting the detailed examinations, and now it was his turn.

Without offering any opinion, the three Jonin who entered did not abandon the examination based on the medical ninja's one-sided account.

He watched as the other person squatted down beside the hospital bed, said a few words to the injured Sand Ninja, and then placed his hand on the other person's body to feel his condition.

Then he moved his palm to the wounded man's face and touched it. After finding nothing unusual, he still wouldn't stop and continued to ask the man some things that only his own people knew.

[This is utterly hopeless!]

Toshiro, who had been observing from the sidelines, knew that with this method of inspection, he wouldn't be able to hide anything no matter what.

Don't even mention that you only used some minor tricks like disguise. Even if you used a high-level ninjutsu like the "Face Removal Technique," you will eventually be exposed.

brush!

A kunai pierced the air with a mournful cry.

"Small……"

Before he could even utter a word of caution, Toshiro's kunai was already close to the puppeteer's neck. If he pushed it forward any further, he would sever the puppeteer's carotid artery.

Feeling that he could no longer hide, Toshiro did not wait for the other party to check him before making his move. Instead, he launched a surprise attack while the other party turned to check another Sand Ninja.

This series of actions left the two Sand Ninjas and the medical ninja in the same tent completely dumbfounded.

"this……"

They never expected that their patients and wounded soldiers recuperating in the same tent would launch a surprise attack at this time.

As a fellow puppeteer, he maintained a certain composure at this moment, though he was also somewhat surprised.

"not good!"

The kunai pierced the other's neck, but before Toshiro could even feel happy, his expression suddenly changed...

The feel is off; it should be a puppet...

He didn't even have time to make any adjustments.

brush!brush!brush!

The shuriken from the Rainstorm Squad were aimed at Toshiro's vital points.

The whooshing sound of the swords cutting through the air at high speed was enough to tell just by listening to it how astonishing the force that the owner of these shurikens and kunai had poured into them was.

"It's that Uchiha!"

"Unrelated personnel, disperse!"

It took a whole day to finally catch up with the other person.

At this moment, Yecang, though excited, had not lost his composure and kindly reminded the Sand Ninja in the tent.

Her companion, however, was not so kind and had already begun forming hand seals.

The lives of these Chunin are utterly insignificant compared to this Uchiha. He will show no mercy whatsoever.

When he realized that something was wrong and that the swords he was stabbing weren't real, Toshiro didn't hesitate at all. He formed a hand seal with one hand while blocking the shuriken with the other.

Ding!Ding!Ding!

The sound of swords hitting the ground echoed throughout the room.

"Fire Release: Dust Concealment Technique!"

At this point, facing a bloodstained ninja, a Jonin puppeteer, and another Jonin whose background is unknown, staying here would be tantamount to courting death.

Without any hesitation, Toshiro activated his ninjutsu.

At the same time, he threw the kunai in his hand toward the location of the Jonin he sensed.

He mastered all of these techniques, including the Dust Concealment Technique and several other Fire Release ninjutsu that shone brightly in the original work.

However, its power is vastly different from that of the characters in the original work. Even so, its power should not be underestimated.

cough!cough!cough!

He successfully executed this ninjutsu, causing quite a bit of choking among the people inside the tent.

It also blocked their view!

"The other party is trying to escape..."

The first to react was Yekura, a bloodstained ninja. As soon as the smoke cleared, she realized the other party's intentions, but she hesitated to act for the moment because of her companions.

Inside the tent at this time, there were not only enemies, but also two wounded soldiers and a medical ninja with little combat ability.

This also shows that she and the Jonin beside her who was preparing to use ninjutsu were two different kinds of people.

However, Toshiro, being a Konoha ninja, didn't have so many concerns.

Peng!

As the seal in my hand changes.

The ninjutsu he had just used, which appeared as a cloud of burning black ash, changed and burst into flames.

This ninjutsu not only covers the user's retreat, but also has a certain degree of offensive capability.

It can burn under the caster's control, dealing damage to pursuing enemies.

However, the damage is limited...
