All Heavens: Transcending Dimensions Starting with the Uchiha

A Jonin from the Anbu shouted sternly.

"Rebels, kill them without mercy! Konoha spies, capture them alive or execute them on the spot!"

The battle erupted instantly!

The Mist Ninja surged towards the "rebels" in the harbor like a black tide.

Water Release ninjutsu shot out, transforming into a roaring water dragon, a sharp Thousand Shark, and a viscous Mist Concealment Technique, instantly turning the port into a battlefield of water and blood.

Kaguya's clan ninjas roared like beasts, their bone blades piercing the air as they fearlessly charged into the enemy ranks. Bone spikes pierced flesh, and blood stained the deck.

The ninjas of the Yuki clan used Ice Release to create ice walls and ice spikes, freezing the water surface and slowing down the enemy's attack. Ice crystals shattered and flew away amidst the shouts of battle.

Uchiha Sō, Kakashi, and Shisui were like ghosts on the battlefield.

Kakashi's Sharingan provided a comprehensive view, and his Lightning Blade flashed, precisely tearing apart the Kirigakure formation that was attempting to surround them.

Shisui's Body Flicker Technique is incredibly fast. With each flash of his short sword, blood blossoms. His illusions further disrupt the enemy's mind at crucial moments.

Uchiha Sō, on the other hand, appeared more "restrained." He mainly used exquisite Fire Release (deliberately suppressing its power to disguise himself as an ordinary Jonin), Earth Release, and Taijutsu to fight off approaching enemies and protect the escape route.

His gaze remained fixed on Yagura high above, and... on the eyes hidden in the crevices of space.

In a narrow crevice imperceptible to ordinary people, Obito (in his Tobi form), wearing a vortex mask, is pacing "angrily."

His voice, coming through the mask, was filled with a gnashing of hatred:

"Damn it! Uchiha Sō!"

It's him again! The guy who ruined the Nine-Tailed Fox Project! The bastard who destroyed everything I have! I'm going to kill him! Now! Immediately!

He unleashed a powerful spatial fluctuation, his Sharingan fixed on Uchiha Eboshi weaving through the crowd below, poised to launch a Kamui attack.

"Obito! Calm down!"

Black Zetsu's hoarse, chilling voice rang out just in time, like a leech clinging to a bone, carrying an undeniable air of dissuasion.

"Now is not the time!"

Your identity is your last resort; you must never reveal it!

Yagura is enough for the rest!

The Hokage of Konoha died at the hands of the Mizukage of Kirigakure – this is the perfect script!

If you act now and expose the Kaleidoscope's abilities, it will arouse suspicion!

Don't forget our ultimate plan!

"But…!"

Obito growled in resentment, his body trembling slightly with anger.

"I wish I could tear him to pieces right now!"

Gouge his eyes out!

"Endure, Obito!"

Black Zetsu's voice was seductive.

"Isn't it more wonderful to watch him be cornered by Yagura and to watch him flee in a sorry state?"

For the Eye of the Moon Project, for Lin's peaceful world, what is this humiliation?

What about your magnanimity?

Obito (Tobi) let out a suppressed growl, like a wounded beast, and slammed his fist hard against the invisible spatial barrier (he didn't actually use any force).

"Damn it!"

Let him live a little longer!

But he won't leave the Land of Water alive!

He resentfully withdrew his Kamui, which he was about to unleash, but his Sharingan eyes remained fixed on the battlefield, filled with resentment.

Black Zetsu watched this scene with satisfaction, believing that Obito's "hatred" was still under his control.

The battle below has reached a fever pitch.

Although the elites of the bloodline families and the disguised assassins under the command of the Yuan Master were brave and fierce, they were at a significant disadvantage in terms of numbers and terrain, resulting in heavy casualties.

Yagura (controlled by Obito) finally made his move! He swung his coral staff, and a massive amount of water-style chakra condensed.

"Water Release: Isobu Great Waterfall!"

A colossal wave appeared out of nowhere and crashed into the port like a tsunami, its target being the area where Uchiha Zō was located!

This is a terrifying force capable of destroying a small fleet!

"Lord Hokage!"

Kakashi and Shisui's expressions changed.

Beneath the elephant mask, a barely perceptible smile curved the corners of Uchiha's mouth.

The time has come!

Instead of taking the hit head-on, he quickly formed hand seals, instantly completing an Earth Release ninjutsu far larger than the one he had previously demonstrated:

"Earth Escape: Ten Thousand Miles Earth Current Wall!"

Several massive earthen walls, as thick as mountains and engraved with intricate fire patterns (deliberately imitating the style of the First Hokage's rock statue), rose from the ground, layer upon layer, blocking the giant waves in front of them!

Boom! ...

A deafening roar!

The earthen wall trembled violently under the terrifying impact, and large chunks of rock collapsed, but it was not completely destroyed and successfully withstood most of the impact.

Water splashed everywhere, and the port was in a mess.

"Now!"

Uchiha Ezra's voice clearly reached Kakashi, Shisui, and Mei Terumi amidst the chaos.

The pre-arranged signal has been sent!

The Heavenly Court merchant ship, hidden in the thick fog outside the bay, suddenly increased its speed with a special magical light shining on its hull. Like an arrow released from a bow, it broke through the fog and forced its way toward the chaotic dock!

"Board! Quickly!"

The master's trusted ninja shouted loudly in the crowd.

The remaining Kaguya, the elite of the Yuki clan, and some suicide soldiers, under the cover of Kakashi and Shisui, rushed towards the docked ships without regard for their own safety.

"Stop them!"

Yagura (Obito) gave a stern order, and more Mist Ninja rushed toward the boarding point.

Mei Terumi appeared on the most dangerous interception line.

While seemingly chasing Uchiha Sō and his group, she was actually trying to stop the others from pursuing her, and she quickly formed hand seals.

"Lava Release: Lava Monster Technique!"

"Boiling Release: Skillful Mist Technique!"

The strong acid and high-temperature steam instantly sealed off a large area, stopping the pursuing Mist Ninja.

Her actions, seemingly aimed at preventing the evacuation of Konoha's "spies," actually bought her the crucial time for the final boarding.

"Hmph! Trying to run away?"

Yagura (Obito) pointed his coral staff, gathering the tailed beast's chakra, preparing to unleash an even stronger attack.

Uchiha Sō, however, no longer wanted to fight.

He glanced deeply at Yagura (Obito) high above, then at Mei Terumi who was "fighting desperately to stop him," and finally his gaze fell on Kakashi and Shisui, who had successfully boarded the ship and were gesturing for him to "retreat" from the bow.

"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Concealment Technique!"

His figure instantly merged into the crumbling rocks beneath his feet and disappeared.

The next moment, he appeared on the deck of a merchant ship that was rapidly leaving the port.

"Lord Mizukage, they've escaped!"

Yu Wu shouted unwillingly.

Yagura (controlled by Obito) watched the departing ship, slammed his coral staff heavily on the ground, and let out a cold snort containing both "raging fury" and "helplessness":

"Uchiha Sō... You're lucky this time! Kirigakure and Konoha are sworn enemies!"

This declaration, which resounded throughout the port, was both a cover-up for the "failure" and a message for all the ninja.

The thick fog closed in again, swallowing the departing ship, leaving only a devastated port, corpses strewn everywhere, and a complex mix of anger, exhaustion, and bewilderment on the faces of the many Mist Ninja.

After this battle, the prestige of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, plummeted to rock bottom in the eyes of many Kirigakure ninja.

The merchant ships of the Heavenly Court broke through the thick fog and sailed towards safe waters.

Inside the cabin, the atmosphere was heavy, yet filled with the relief of surviving a catastrophe.

Kaguya and most of the elites of the Yuki clan were wounded, silently tending to their injuries, their eyes still reflecting the madness of battle and the uncertainty about the future.

Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils scanned the crowd, finally settling on an unusually quiet boy in the corner, his face as pale as paper—Kaguya Kimimaro.

Even after such a fierce battle and escape, the boy's eyes remained empty, as if he were indifferent to life and death. However, the powerful yet destructive Shikotsumyaku chakra within him was a treasure that Orochimaru cherished.

"Would you like to come with me?"

Orochimaru walked up to Kimimaro, his voice carrying a unique, husky magnetism.

Kimimaro raised his head, his empty eyes looking at Orochimaru, showing no fear, only a barely perceptible hint of doubt.

"Your power is interesting, but it's killing you."

Orochimaru stretched out his hand, his fingertips carrying a trace of cold chakra.

“Follow me, and I can help you survive, even… take control of it. You will find meaning in your existence.”

Perhaps it was the words "survive" that touched him, or perhaps it was the powerful and mysterious aura emanating from the man before him that made him feel something different.

Kimimaro remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded.

Several Yuki clan ninjas who had also been chosen by Orochimaru silently stood behind him.
