Projection magicians starting from the Uchiha clan

Minato Namikaze quickly assembled his troops and said firmly:

"Execute according to the previous plan. The Jonin will go to fight the Jonin of Iwagakure, the Chunin will hold their ground, and I will go to repel the enemy's ninja forces."

Minato Namikaze bore the brunt of the pressure in his plan, and everyone obeyed without question.

"Iori, be careful later. Jonin have all sorts of tricks up their sleeves, so protect yourself."

Tsukiko Nobuhiko's words revealed his worry. After three years of being teacher and student, their relationship could be described as both that of a teacher and a father.

"Teacher, don't worry, just watch my progress."

Iori seemed quite radiant, even though she had lived for over 20 years in her previous life.

But low-level office workers and shut-ins don't have any guile; their emotions are completely out in their sleeves.

Looking at the crimson spear in Iori's hand that exuded a strange aura, Tsukiko Nobuhiko chose to believe in his student.

Inuzuka Gaki and Akimichi Tou didn't speak, but silently moved forward, waiting to engage in battle.

As they traversed the jungle, Minato Namikaze took the lead, throwing his Flying Thunder God Kunai towards the densely populated area.

He then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away, creating a gust of bloody wind.

"It's a yellow flash. Spread out, pair up, and move back to back."

After the battle against Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning, the name of the Yellow Flash had spread throughout the ninja world.

Although I don't fully understand the specifics of the Flying Thunder God Technique, I have summarized some ways to deal with it.

When Minato Namikaze's killing efficiency decreases, requiring multiple teleportations to take down a single person.

Akimichi Tōtō said in a deep voice, "We can't let Minato fight alone. It's our turn to step in."

"There are eight Jonin on the other side. The four of us will attack in pairs and reduce the enemy's numbers first."

Having said that, Akimichi Tou rushed out and launched an attack on a Jonin.

"Super Multiplication Technique".

His body instantly swelled, transforming into a giant, and he struck his opponent with a palm.

"Watch out! A Konoha ninja is attacking!"

The Iwagakure Jonin quickly leaped backward to avoid the attack, while simultaneously warning his comrades.

"Beast-like Ninja Technique: Ya Tong Ya."

Inuzuka Jaw burst out from below, and after using the Ninjutsu: Beastman Clone, he and his ninja dog worked together to perform a secret technique.

Their bodies spun at high speed, forming two tornadoes that attacked their opponents from mid-air.

Inuzuka Jacques and Akimichi Tou worked together seamlessly, catching the Iwakage Jonin off guard. The whirlwind was torn to shreds, and the Jonin died on the spot.

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

Meanwhile, after a brief exchange, Nobuhiko Tsukikage and Iori Uchiha reached a consensus.

He decided to launch a feint attack, while Iori would finish off the opponent.

Taking advantage of the enemy's attention being drawn to Akimichi Tou, Gekko Nobuhiko quietly used his transformation technique to sneak up to another Iwagakure Jonin.

"Konoha Style: Crescent Moon Dance".

Without hesitation, Nobuhiko Tsukiko unleashed his full power.

He swiftly used the Shadow Clone Technique to create two clones, then instantly appeared in front of the enemy, launching a fierce attack on the enemy's vital points from the left, top, and right.

"Earth Release: Hardening Technique".

The enemy Iwa ninja were clearly caught off guard; after unleashing their ninjutsu, they only had time to protect their vital areas.

He planned to withstand this wave of attacks from Nobuhiko Gekko before joining forces with his companions to launch a counterattack.

Clang! Nobuhiko Gekko's sword struck Iwa ninja's hands and feet, but failed to sever his bones.

The sword was stuck in his flesh and could not be moved.

The Iwa ninja revealed a cruel smile, forcefully clamping down on Gekko Nobuhiko's sword, preparing to call upon his teammates to take his life.

At that moment, Uchiha Iori appeared from behind Gekko Nobuhiko.

Chakra gathered at the tip of the spear, which was then thrust into the heart of the Iwa ninja.

"I'll accept your heart."

The restraint is mutual; while the Iwa ninja locked up Gekko Nobuhiko, Gekko Nobuhiko also locked him up.

Helpless, Iwagakure could only move his elbow toward his heart, hoping that the hardening technique could block Iori's spear.

However, it was all in vain. The mere Hardening Technique was as fragile as glass in front of the Death Thorn Spear, easily shattering the defense and piercing through the Iwa Ninja's elbow and heart.

"You've gotten stronger, Iori."

Nobuhiko Tsukikage said with satisfaction that he had watched Iori grow from a rookie genin into an elite ninja capable of killing jonin, and his heart was filled with pride and satisfaction.

Nobuhiko Tsukikage looked around and discovered that two of the eight Jonin from Iwagakure were dead.

Of the remaining few, one was chasing Minato Namikaze, three were fighting against Akimichi Dohira and Inuzuka Jacques, and the other two were heading in their direction.

"Let's go, two against two, and we need to defeat them as quickly as possible. Many of them are already preparing to regroup."

Nobuhiko Tsukiko said nervously that although they had a slight advantage in the Jonin battle, the opposing team had a huge numerical advantage in the Chunin battle.

Once they regain command, whether they disrupt the Jonin or launch a coordinated attack on the outposts, they will put Konoha in a difficult situation.

"Damn Konoha ninja, let us, the Hanagaka and Anzan brothers, take your heads."

"Iwagakure Jonin Hanaoka roared, followed by two Iwagakure ninjas who shouted in unison after forming hand seals."

"Earth Escape - Earth Flowing River".

The ground beneath Uchiha Iori and Gekko Nobuhiko's feet suddenly surged, engulfing their calves.

A force came from the ground, pulling their bodies to the sides of the battlefield, where a group of newly assembled Iwa ninja were waiting for the two to fall into a trap.

"Earth Release: Rock Iron Cannon Technique".

The Iwa ninjas worked together, unleashing countless stone cannons from their mouths, which struck Iori and Nobuhiko.

With a bang, the two who were hit turned into smoke. Uchiha Iori and Gekko Nobuhiko were prepared, and what was hit was only a shadow clone.

The real Iori and Nobuhiko were prepared, having already used transformation techniques to disguise themselves as Iwa ninja and stealthily approach the enemy.

"Konoha Style: Crescent Moon Dance".

Gekko Nobuhiko charged toward Hanaoka, slashing at him with all three swords simultaneously.

Uchiha Iori also wielded his demonic spear, which moved like a dragon, and together with Gekko Nobuhiko, they attacked Hanagi.

"Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique".

Hanaoka concentrated his chakra in his right hand, which transformed into a hard fist, completely abandoning defense as he punched Gekko Nobuhiko.

Hanaoka knew he had no chance of survival, but he was determined to exchange his own death for Nobuhiko's serious injury.

"Let me show you the backbone of the Iwa ninja!" Hanaoka roared.

"Brother, no!" Anshan shouted, but he couldn't help in time and could only shout in vain.

With a thud, Iori pierced Hanaoka's heart with a spear, and Hanaoka's fist shattered Gekko Nobuhiko's longsword.

Hanaoka's reaction was too decisive; Gekko Nobuhiko only had time to parry with his longsword, barely avoiding a fatal blow.

Chapter 11 Liberation, Breaking Through the Deathly Spear

Although Nobuhiko Gekko took defensive measures and avoided vital points.

However, the enemy's desperate attack still caused him serious injuries.

To make matters worse, in the heart of the battlefield, there was simply no time or place for him to receive treatment.

They were surrounded by an enraged Jonin and a group of Chunin, who were eyeing them menacingly.

"It seems this is probably my last stop. I'll have to leave the rest to you, Iori."

"Nobuhiko Tsukikage gritted his teeth and struggled to support his body. His abdomen was covered in blood as the Iwa ninja's attack grazed the edge of his abdomen, taking away large pieces of flesh.

Blood loss and internal organ tremors rendered him incapable of fighting.

"Don't say discouraging things, teacher. Didn't we all say we're going to make it back alive?"

Iori gripped her spear tightly, her expression turning serious.

"Please look at me, teacher. I will use this power to protect Konoha."

"Protect my Konoha," he added in his mind.

Iori unleashed his chakra and brandished his spear.

Gunfire was dense and impenetrable, blocking the enemy's kunai and explosive tags.

He then picked up his teacher and used Fire Release to forcefully stop the bleeding, then quickly brought him to meet up with Akimichi Tou and Inuzuka Jaw.

Akimichi Tou and Inuzuka Agito were fighting two against three, and they also had to deal with interference from the enemy's Chunin.

Although they had a slight advantage, they were still unable to break the deadlock. When Akimichi Tou saw Uchiha Iori arrive with Gekko Nobuhiko, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Well done, you've taken down two Jonin. You can retreat now, I'll cover your retreat," Akimichi Touichi said in a deep voice.

With the strategic objectives largely achieved and the enemy suffering significant losses, it's time to consider retreating and engaging in positional warfare.

"Senior, please protect my teacher. I have a wide-range attack."

"The enemy's formation is currently chaotic, but their personnel are relatively concentrated, which is perfect for me to unleash my power."

Iori didn't unleash her Noble Phantasm at first because the enemy's command system was still operational in the early stages, and area-of-effect attacks would definitely be dodged and countered by the organization.

The opposing command system has now fallen apart, and the Jonin are also tied down. Even if there is a counterattack, its strength is far less than when the war started.

"Are you sure?" Akimichi Tou gave him a deep look.

Judging from the current situation, Uchiha Iori is not someone who speaks nonsense.

Although it was unclear why he had such strong confidence, he still chose to trust his companions.

Akidodo fired a signal flare into the sky.
