Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 418 Hirame-no-Mikoto

"We won't let you succeed!"

Around Hozuki Mangetsu were more than a dozen Shisui clones. One of the Shisui clones looked up and circled around him.

Bitao, heading towards the camp behind her, frowned and said firmly.

With such unusual behavior from his clones, how could the surrounding Mist Ninja not see it?

However... none of them launched an attack rashly.

Because in previous battles, they had fallen for similar schemes by the enemy several times.

The two corpses at his feet are the best proof.

This was only because their comrades provided cover; otherwise, the number of corpses they left behind would have been far more than just these two.

Of course, Hozuki Mangetsu deserves much credit for this, which is why these Kirigakure ninjas looked at the Hozuki clan ninjas with very unfriendly eyes.

This put immense pressure on the Hozuki clan members who were responsible for keeping their genius in check.

"Uchiha Shisui, you want to save your comrades... that's wishful thinking!"

Just then, a roar, tinged with madness and making the nearby Mist Ninjas' eyes twitch, rang out.

"Take this... Twin Flounder Slash!"

From Hozuki Mangetsu's perspective, he was wielding Hiramekarei, chasing after Uchiha Shisui, but this guy was actually abandoning him to intercept those insignificant minions.

How can this be accepted?

He had just become excited, and the blood in his body was boiling. A wave of almost fanatical fighting desire spread from his brain to his whole body. His body, which was already trembling with excitement, began to twitch uncontrollably.

At this moment... how can we tolerate such contempt?

"ah…"

With a long, drawn-out sigh.

Hozuki Mangetsu exerted force with both hands, each wielding a strangely shaped ninja sword.

As his chakra surged, the ninja sword in his hand did not grow larger, but maintained its original size.

However, a thin, sharp sword aura emanated from Hirame's blade.

"cut!"

A powerful sword aura, with a wide-ranging impact, slashed towards Shisui, who had his back to him.

Seeing that the other party had transformed into crows again, Man Yue's hands did not stop moving.

He stretched out his hands, holding the Hiramekarei in his hands, and his figure began to slowly rotate... However, the Hiramekarei in his hands seemed to become abnormal due to the large amount of chakra injected into it.

This makes his rotation speed not very fast.

However... he had his own 'teammates' by his side, who effectively blocked the attacks from the opponent's clones.

"That idiot!"

Seeing the body spinning faster and faster, and then the whole person seemed too heavy, being carried into the air.

As the full moon of the Hōzuki descended towards the peach blossom, Mei Terumi could no longer contain her rage.

"Don't worry about the full moon. If anything happens and the Hozuki clan comes after us, let them come find me!" After saying that, Mei Terumi added, "And... watch out for their illusions!"

Considering the opponent's skill in illusion, even Ao, who possesses the Byakugan, would be completely unaware until the opponent activates their illusion, Mei Terumi added somewhat helplessly.

"Forget it... everyone should be careful of their teammates!"

Rather than guarding against the opponent's unpredictable illusions, she felt it was more reliable to guard against a sudden attack from her own teammates.

'Uchiha men are as troublesome as ever!'

He sighed to himself, "There's a reason why Konoha is wary of the Uchiha. With such a bloodline clan that produces so many talented people, which village's leaders wouldn't be wary?"

Putting all that aside, Mei Terumi smoothly formed several hand seals.

"Water Release: Super Water Dragon Bullet Technique"

"Go to hell!"

Just as Hozuki Mangetsu, aided by his rotation and the centrifugal force generated by Hiramekarei, leaped into the air, bringing with him two pale blue sword energies that faintly glowed with chakra, preparing to end 'Uchiha Shisui' and his annoying clones.

A massive water dragon, nearly a hundred meters long and of astonishing size, met his blade and swallowed Man Yue whole.

"We're saved!"

Seeing Hozuki Mangetsu swallowed by the Water Dragon Bullet, Hippo and his subordinates all breathed a sigh of relief.

Full Moon's terrifying slash just now fully unleashed Hiramekarei's power; although these people were also elites of Kirigakure.

However, facing the genius of the Hozuki clan and the Hiramekarei in their hands, they still seemed somewhat powerless to resist.

Watch out behind you!

Just as the threat of Hozuki Mangetsu had been eliminated and Bitao had breathed a sigh of relief, her expression suddenly changed drastically, and she spoke up to warn her companion.

"Five o'clock... no... seven o'clock!"

"Blackwater is right behind you!"

Bitao, a petite, curvaceous, and somewhat pitiful-looking beauty with a youthful face, is also a bloodstained ninja.

However, unlike Hozuki and Kaguya, whose bloodlines are primarily focused on combat, her bloodline grants her unparalleled affinity for water. Even the water molecules in the air are her 'eyes,' giving her a perception far beyond that of ordinary people.

Although Shisui's phantom clones combined with the Instantaneous Movement Technique are mysterious, she can always find the other party's traces when Shisui's real body appears.

"Special sensory abilities!"

After offering a brief compliment to his opponent, Shisui drew his ninja sword without the slightest hesitation, showing no mercy whatsoever just because she was a cute and pitiful girl.

"Could it be... that the Xian Shui family bloodline is about to end in my hands?"

Seeing the ninja sword getting closer and closer to her throat, Shimizu Hitomo, the last descendant of the Shimizu clan, was unwilling to let her life end like this.

"Excellent Water Instantaneous Movement!"

Seeing the crimson stain on the tip of his knife, Zhishui turned his gaze to a small puddle about ten meters away to his side.

"Just a little bit more~"

Fueled by the last bit of unwillingness in his heart, he unleashed the Water Instant Body technique with a speed he had never experienced before.

Only her turquoise hair and pale face were visible above the puddle. Xian Shui Bi Tao touched the wound on her neck and felt the warmth in her hand.

Her little face scrunched up in a frown.

While both are bloodline limits, the difference between his own water attribute affinity and the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is simply too great.

The opponent could even see through her teleportation technique through those eyes, and in this high-speed world, accurately aim at her neck.

She... could only rely on instinct to dodge the ninja sword in the opponent's hand.

Brush brush!

Fortunately, at that moment, a large group of Mist Ninja arrived at the scene and surrounded the enemy; otherwise...

She felt that she would soon become a gradually cooling corpse, just like Blackwater and another companion.
