……
Three days later, the sea outside Kirigakure was turbulent, as if foreshadowing an impending storm.
Uchiha Eiji stood quietly on the deck of the Heavenly Court's merchant ship, toying with a test tube in his hand.
The cells wriggling in the test tube were those that had absorbed the Three-Tails' chakra and reactivated the Ten-Tails' chakra; they were precious samples that he had obtained after going through countless hardships.
Using this cluster of Ten-Tails cells as the source, and by gathering the chakra of the nine tailed beasts, it is entirely possible to evolve a degenerate version of the Divine Tree in the Great Luo Heaven using Yin-Yang Release.
However, even a weakened version of the Divine Tree seed, once it begins to develop, is enough to help Uchiha Zou fuse Yin-Yang Release and advance to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
He discovered this problem when he came into contact with Kazuko Uzumaki. After his Sharingan was upgraded to Mangekyou Sharingan, it was Yin Release that was extremely pure, and it actually repelled the Yang Release in Kazuko Uzumaki's body.
A new tree was then propagated using the cells of the divine tree and planted in the Great Luo Heaven, laying a solid foundation for the advancement of the grotto heaven.
Uchiha Xiang gazed at the moon, which was faintly visible through the clouds, and a dangerous smile crept onto his lips.
"Project Eye of the Moon? We'll see if I grow fast enough!"
Madara is really powerful. Even when I was about to die, he forced me to use all my trump cards to escape from him, and I even had to heal for a few days.
I sealed medical ninjutsu and space-time ninjutsu onto Nohara Rin when she was taken away to ensure she wouldn't die. When Obito buried her, he would use a pre-prepared replacement to put her down and take her away.
I wonder how things are on the main battlefield?
At this moment, the Ministry of Commerce members who had gone down to compile the latest intelligence came over to report the situation.
"Your Majesty, according to the latest intelligence from the Ministry of Commerce, after the Kirigakure's surprise attack failed, they joined forces with the Sand Village to launch a frontal assault. However, Konoha's cold-blooded Orochimaru had made preparations in advance, and with the support of Tsunade and Konoha's new reinforcements, they managed to hold off the combined forces of the two great ninja villages."
"Konoha truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest of the five great ninja villages. Even when facing four opponents alone, it hasn't shown any signs of defeat."
"However, the peace talks with the Land of Fire have been suspended due to the new developments in the war situation, as the original plan was to negotiate with the Hidden Earth Village and the Hidden Lightning Village."
"Gao Qiao-kun has done a great job. The Ministry of Commerce's intelligence has reached this level! The revolution in the ninja world will eventually be started by my Heavenly Court, and the crimson torrent will sweep everything away."
After listening to the report, Uchiha Xiang nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he began to instill the great goals of the Heavenly Court in the members of the Commerce Department.
"Hey! We will surely follow under your command, change the landscape of the ninja world, and bring the light of hope to countless people..."
The Heavenly Court members around them cheered wildly.
……
One day later, at the Konoha front-line command post.
Seeing Uchiha Eboshi return, Orochimaru's cold lips curled up slightly.
"Have you finished your work, Xiang-kun? Or did you manage to take some time out of your busy schedule to check on the situation in Konoha?"
"Haha, thank you for taking care of me during this time, Lord Orochimaru. From now on, I will follow your lead and do my best to help you win the battle and become the Fourth Hokage. This is my way of thanking you!"
"Oh? It seems that Elephant-kun has made great progress in his strength recently. Was that experiment successful?"
Looking at the somewhat arrogant Uchiha Sho in front of him, Orochimaru vaguely sensed a hint of danger emanating from him.
"Hiss! Congratulations to Elephant-kun for achieving his wish. Now, let's see what Elephant-kun can do!"
"Orochimaru-kun, you can rest assured and leave the Hidden Mist ninjas to me. Their achievements will help you secure the position of Fourth Hokage, which will also benefit our grand goal. After all, in the entire ninja world, only Orochimaru-kun understands my great dream!"
"To ensure that ordinary people can have enough to eat... that's practically a saintly dream... it's truly worthy of admiration..."
"Zhou-kun... the Nara-yama base in Kirigakure... is now in your hands. At the same time, I will launch an attack... to contain any possible reinforcements..."
……
the next day.
The ninjas on the Konoha front, led by Uchiha Sō, are preparing to launch a counterattack against Kirigakure.
As a Jonin of the Uchiha clan in Konoha, Hatake brought his squad, all the Uchiha combat personnel on the front lines, and other ninja led by Kakashi Hatake, who wanted revenge against Kirigakure, to the key battlefield stronghold of Kirigakure, at the foot of Mount Nara.
"Hmm? Kirigakure is really cautious. They've cleared away everything around them that could provide cover... They even brought in a river. This environment is indeed very advantageous for Kirigakure."
Uchiha Ei surveyed the area around the Nara Mountain base: the cleared forest, the open space, and the rushing river.
"It seems that the commander of the Hidden Mist is prepared for a protracted war. These kinds of steady, methodical enemies are the most difficult to deal with. Unless you have the strength to completely overwhelm them..."
"I remember... it seems that the one leading this battle is... Yagura Karatachi... his subordinates... are really reliable..."
Several Uchiha Chunin who had participated in the previous Battle of Nara nodded with grim expressions.
Uchiha Igaku spoke with a serious expression.
"Brother Xiang, Yagura's Water Release techniques are very strong. Even if Orochimaru himself were to take action, it would be difficult to defeat him in a short time. Just at this frontline base of Mount Nara, there are four Kirigakure Jonin stationed... They are all formidable..."
"Elephant Lord, what is our attack plan? What is my mission?"
Kakashi Hatake, expressionless except for a murderous glint in his single eye, asked Uchiha Zou, who was sensing the wind direction and estimating the distance between their assembly area and their base at Mount Nara.
"No, what plan do we need for Jin Gong... Well, to be specific, there's no need for you to carry out any special operations in today's operation to capture the Nara Mountain stronghold."
After obtaining the data they needed, Uchiha Sho gestured to Igaku, indicating that they could begin their work.
Then, with a stomp of his foot, he charged alone towards the Nara Mountain stronghold like a swift cheetah.
Chapter 20, Let's Dance in the Fog
"Everyone, follow..."
"Step back, if you don't want to be melted."
Uchiha Igaku stepped forward, stopping the ninjas who wanted to follow Uchiha Enoki and rush forward.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Sō, who was rapidly approaching the Nara Mountain base, grinned as he looked at the two Kirigakure Jonin who were about to rush out of the base to intercept him.
"Oh dear, instead of choosing to hold their ground, they've taken the initiative to attack me? Really... I've been underestimated!"
Lightning Release: Chidori!
A dazzling bolt of lightning emanated from Uchiha Elephant's right hand, enveloping his entire body and making his already terrifying speed even faster, allowing him to reach the two Kirigakure Jonin almost instantly.
"what?"
As Kakashi's signature ninjutsu, it was known to almost all the Konoha ninja present, and countless members of the Uchiha clan had tried to replicate it using the Sharingan.
But it is precisely because everyone has tried it that they know how difficult it is to replicate this technique simply through observation.
Kakashi Hatake, who created this technique, was especially shocked and even felt a slight sense of defeat.
This was the first time Kakashi, a genius of Konoha, had ever felt this way.
What an incredible learning ability... Even if you told me you could learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, I'd probably believe you, right?
Sigh, the Uchiha clan really does produce a lot of geniuses. First there was Uchiha Sō, and then there was Uchiha Shisui. Is this the foundation of the number one clan in the ninja world?
No wonder the Uchiha clan is always so arrogant!
Kakashi Hatake shook his head and followed. Although he felt that Uchiha Elephant might not be useful, his hatred for Kirigakure made him unwilling to let a Kirigakure ninja escape.
"Pfft," "Pfft"
In the blink of an eye, the two Kirigakure Jonin who were at the forefront were severely injured by Uchiha Eiji. If it weren't for Kirigakure's timely rescue, the two Kirigakure Jonin might have died as soon as the battle began.
"Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique".
Pale mist spewed from the mouths of the ninjas behind them, and in the blink of an eye, the entire Nara Mountain was completely shrouded in a thick fog created by Kirigakure, so thick that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.
Looking at Mount Nara completely shrouded in mist, Uchiha Igaku shook his head, not worried. Following Uchiha Sō's previous instructions, he led the remaining Uchiha to be on alert for possible reinforcements from Kirigakure.
"That suits me perfectly. Being completely shrouded in fog, I can finally move around more freely..."
Uchiha Xiang's lips curled up. He hadn't expected Kirigakure to cooperate so much. The battlefield was completely shrouded in fog, making it impossible for outsiders to see clearly.
It's important to know that even when the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is actively activated, its vision can only capture things within a radius of one kilometer.
The dense fog created by the combined forces of the Kirikakushi of Nara Mountain covered an area of at least five kilometers in radius.
No wonder Konoha couldn't take this place before.
Tsk tsk, such a large-scale change in the environment, combined with the assassination ninjutsu of Kirigakure, and with four Kirigakure Jonin in charge, is indeed very difficult to deal with.
Of course, these difficulties are for ordinary ninjas.
With Uchiha Sō having awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, no one in Kirigakure of the entire Nara Mountain could escape his eyes; what remained was nothing more than a massacre like playing whack-a-mole.
He stretched his neck and casually dodged a ninja sword that slashed through the thick fog.
"Lightning Release: Instantaneous Killing Technique!"
A surge of powerful Lightning Release chakra emanated from Uchiha Eizo's body, enveloping him like armor.
This technique was developed by him with the "friendly sponsorship" of Orochimaru and Kakashi, based on the original work where the Raikage used Lightning Release to activate cells, maximizing physical speed and nerve reaction speed.
Although it's not perfect yet, it's more than enough to deal with the Hidden Mist of Mount Nara!
"Let me dance in the thick fog!"
"Boom..."
Lightning pierced through the thick fog, accompanied by deafening thunder and air-tearing explosions, along with screams of agony.
"Ah... my eyes..."
"Damn it... this Uchiha is... a monster..."
"Lord Ueno... was torn to shreds in an instant..."
"Run...run away quickly..."
"Ah...ah..."
From the direction of the Nara Mountain base, heart-wrenching, ghostly wails of despair echoed through the thick fog.
Following closely behind, Kakashi Hatake, who entered the thick fog, easily sensed the despair of the Hidden Mist Village.
The chakra fluctuations emanating from the man in front were incredibly intense, suggesting that Uchiha Sō's strength had greatly increased after his battle with Hozuki Suigetsu.
It was simply inhuman. In Kakashi Hatake's perception, the amount of chakra that Uchiha Zō was currently displaying was truly terrifying.
At this moment, even if someone told him that Uchiha Ei was a perfect Jinchuriki, there was a good chance he would believe it!
Fortunately, they are from the same village. Although they don't get along very well, Wuyin is in for a lot of trouble.
The thought of the Kirigakure ninjas entrenched in their stronghold on Mount Nara, facing this Uchiha who was their natural counter, with no chance of escape and only the hope of being caught and killed one by one... filled the air with despair.
Even Kakashi Hatake, a Konoha Jonin who harbored deep hatred for Kirigakure, couldn't help but silently mourn for them in his heart.
