Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"This kind of intelligence... from more than 30 years ago... was discovered by chance."

"The entire Leaf Village...can be...destroyed."

"What was once...destroyed...will now...be a great help."

"Lord Raikage's vengeance...revenge..."

"Covered operations...cannot...be detected."

"The Raikage... no longer... has the ability... to..."

"One hour later... resume... departure!"

……

Shutting off his Byakugan, Tokuma's gaze was filled with solemnity.

The conversation had confirmed that Kumogakure was plotting against Konoha, but the specifics were not clearly stated.

How could a power capable of destroying the entire Hidden Leaf Village be possible?

"Om..."

A slight ringing sound reached Tokuma's ears, and a figure moving in the distant forest also came into view of Izumi and Inuzuka Hana.

……

Uchiha Izumi's perspective.

As she was taking notes, a figure suddenly rang in her ears.

"Three little mice from Konoha, are they just genin? How could they get this close? The Hyuga clan's Byakugan is indeed a good reconnaissance tool."

As soon as the words were spoken, Inuzuka Hana's voice rang out: "Disperse!"

A flash of lightning appeared, and a bolt of lightning struck the spot where the three of them had just been.

The speed at which the lightning struck was so great that even if Quan dodged it, it still paralyzed him for a moment, causing him to roll to the ground.

The instant he recovered, Izumi swiftly formed hand seals: Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique.

The flames surged toward the spot where the person had been standing, causing him to slow down and dodge, thus relieving Tokuma and Hana's predicament.

The lightning attack was clearly aimed at Tokuma, which extended his and Hana's paralysis time by a moment.

"He's imbued with lightning-attribute chakra; he's a Jonin from Kumogakure!"

No sooner had Dejian finished speaking than a bolt of lightning suddenly shot out from the opponent's longsword.

As expected, this is a Jonin from Kumogakure, capable of imbuing his longsword with chakra. He clearly possesses the power to wipe out the three of us.

"The Hyuga brat thinks he's so knowledgeable!"

As the other person spoke, they looked at the spring that had just unleashed a fire jutsu, and the clan emblem fan on the spring's clothes caught their eye.

"A little girl from the Uchiha clan? Where's your Sharingan?"

Uchiha Izumi stared intently at her opponent, a kunai held horizontally across her chest: "Kumakuha ninja, what is your purpose in infiltrating the Land of Fire? Aren't you afraid of starting another war?"

As he spoke, Izumi subtly moved his other hand, gesturing towards Inuzuka Hana behind him.

Faced with such a force, they had no chance of winning and could only seek support.

Within the Land of Fire, the village isn't far away. In this situation, only one person could possibly break through: Inuzuka Hana's Rimaru.

Before the other two Cloud Village ninja arrived, they allowed Rimaru to break through from a blind spot, and then they could only stall for time as much as possible.

Out of the corner of her eye, Izumi noticed that Rimaru, who had just been at Hana Inuzuka's feet, had vanished, and Hana nodded slightly at her.

With this goal achieved, Izumi breathed a sigh of relief.

The Cloud Village Jonin in front smiled and said, "War? If it weren't for your Uchiha clan's Uchiha Cloud, Cloud Village wouldn't be in this state today!"

"Your Konoha killed the Fourth Raikage, so you will inevitably suffer retaliation from Kumogakure."

As he spoke, the other party pointed his long sword directly at Uchiha Izumi: "As a member of the Uchiha clan who killed the Fourth Raikage, your death will be the best tribute to the Raikage."

"boom!"

The moment the words fell, lightning struck, but when the smoke cleared, it was just a shadow clone.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"

Six shuriken, wreathed in flames, fell from behind Yun Yin, but the opponent swung his longsword, crackling with lightning, and struck them down with lightning.

"boom!"

Under the Byakugan's gaze, Tokuma, who had launched a sneak attack in an instant to try and sever the opponent's chakra pathways, landed his palm on empty air.

"boom!"

Hana Inuzuka's shuriken explosive tag also missed its target.

Without Rimaru, Hana Inuzuka's power was largely restricted.

"His speed is too fast."

Tokuma's words resonated deeply with Izumi. Even with the Shadow Clone technique as bait to infiltrate behind him, the opponent's speed just now had no effect in catching him off guard.

"Swish!"

Two figures appeared around them, joining the Cloud Village's Jonin to surround Izumi and the other two.

……

Chapter 137: Izumi's Sharingan

How to do?

Yu Guangzhong's other two from Kumogakure also arrived. Although it was now a three-on-three situation, Izumi understood that even if they were just Jonin, they could only barely cope.

And now...

Izumi looked at the shuriken she had just thrown. Thanks to the algorithm her brother had taught her, the wires behind the shuriken were now hidden in the shadows.

but……

Although Tokuma and Hana had known each other since they were in the Ninja Academy, they had never fought together.

How can I subtly hint at this to them without letting the enemy see through my deception?

After pondering for a moment, Quan said, "Let's agree."

Tokuma didn't move, but Hana nodded and moved closer to Tokuma, facing off against the two Chunin from Kumogakure back to back.

"Why not just obediently accept your death? If you resist... you'll suffer."

"Teacher, I didn't expect to be able to catch a few small fish here."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have even noticed that they were being touched on the back! Don't be careless. Although they are just genin, they are all junior members of Konoha clans. You need to be careful with their secret techniques and bloodline limits."

During a brief pause in the conversation between the three from Kumogakure, Uchiha Izumi gently nudged Hana and Tokuma behind her with her elbow.

After receiving a response, Izumi looked solemnly at the two Chunin who had just arrived.

Compared to the Jonin who are unlikely to succeed, dealing with these two Chunin would make things much easier.

Just like my brother said: It's better to cut off a finger than to injure an arm.

Before that, they would procrastinate as much as possible.

"If war breaks out again, the Hidden Cloud Village, which has already lost the Fourth Raikage, will surely cease to exist."

Izumi's words elicited a smile from the other side: "How...how can you be so sure we are from Kumogakure?"

"Whether it's the Land of Earth, the Land of Water, or the Land of Wind, the other three great ninja villages would be happy to let Konoha and Kumogakure continue fighting."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party suddenly formed a hand seal: Earth Release: Earth Core!

In an instant, the earth shattered into pieces amidst violent shaking.

The three, who had just leaped into the air, scattered in all directions. However, the next moment, the opponent's long sword, crackling with electricity, was already attacking.

"Return to Heaven!"

Starting with a sudden burst of chakra, a circular shield-like entity blocked and deflected the attack.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Izumi formed hand seals: Shadow Clone Technique.

Split into three, three figures appeared swiftly and simultaneously rushed towards the two Chunin.

"Shhhh..."

The six shuriken flew toward the opponent in parabolic arcs, and after being dodged, they collided with each other behind the opponent, changing their flight trajectories.

"what?!"

Amidst cries of alarm, the two Chunin who narrowly avoided the attack were both slashed.

In shock and anger, the opponent quickly formed hand seals.

"Thunder escape, thunder!"

"Earth Escape, Huangquan Marsh."

First, the foot of the spring turned into a swamp, but perhaps due to insufficient chakra, the Yellow Spring Swamp was neither large nor deep enough.

Even so, Quan, whose body was frozen in place, could only watch as the lightning struck.

"boom!"

Lightning struck the swamp, and a plume of smoke rose up. The three figures that had just been frozen in place vanished into the smoke.

Clearly, Izumi, who just attacked with shadow clones, not only created two shadow clones, but his main body had already hidden itself.

"ended."

Once the hand seals were complete, Quan's voice rang out.

Fire Release: Dragon Fire Net Technique!

Intense flames instantly filled the steel wires, and as the kunai descended in sync with Izumi, the trajectory of the steel wires was altered, instantly binding the limbs and torsos of the two opposing Chunin.

"boom!!"

Unable to dodge or form hand seals, the two bound Chunin were instantly ignited.
