Uchiha's personal opinion

Dozens of bone whips, driven by Kaguya's Shikotsumyaku power, suddenly grew in size, flying through the air like serpents, and coiling towards Uchiha Tokumitsu and the Jonin.

"Uchiha Style: Sword Leap Slash!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu and his Jonin simultaneously unleashed their sword techniques, cleaving the bone whip in two with their sword light.

Kaguya's ninjas also took the opportunity to approach.

The Uchiha ninja army also fearlessly clashed and provoked a battle.

The Kaguya clan leader lunged forward, her bone whip sweeping upwards towards Uchiha Tokumitsu. Uchiha Tokumitsu dodged and leaped back, parrying with his sword.

"clang!"

The katana and the bone whip collided, producing a sound like metal striking metal.

Then, the bone whip suddenly softened and spread upwards, wrapping around Uchiha Tokumitsu's katana.

"You've fallen for their trap!"

A sickly smile appeared on Kaguya's face as she suddenly yanked her bone whip, pulling Uchiha Tokumitsu, who was gripping his sword hilt tightly to block the whip's force, towards her.

"Your eyes are so beautiful, they're mine!"

Kaguya lowered her head slightly, avoiding Uchiha Tokumitsu's eyes, and reached out with her other hand.

"The Dance of the Clematis Flower!"

A bone spear shot out from his arm, striking Uchiha Tokumitsu in the chest.

Uchiha Tokumitsu was pulled and staggered. Seeing the bone spear coming, he immediately released the hilt of his sword, allowing the katana to be taken away by the Kaguya clan leader.

He then leaped backward and formed a hand seal with one hand.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"boom!"

Chief Kaguya casually lashed out the fireball with her whip!

The fireball transformed into sparks that scattered in all directions.

"Your ninjutsu is useless against me..." The arrogant Kaguya clan chief laughed wildly as he charged out of the flames, brandishing his bone whip at Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Magic Illusion: Golden Binding Technique!"

Before Kaguya could finish speaking, Uchiha Tokumitsu looked up and stared directly into her eyes, then used a genjutsu to immobilize her.

Then, Uchiha Tokumitsu casually pulled a kunai from his ninja tool bag, held it in his hand, and lunged at Kaguya Clan Chief.

The kunai plunged viciously into Kaguya's neck.

"clang!"

The kunai hit him squarely, but it produced a harsh metallic clanging sound.

The kunai was only halfway in when it was shaken and broke off cleanly.

"This quality..." Uchiha Tokumitsu felt deeply annoyed. He cursed under his breath and kicked Kaguya Clan Chief in the chest, then used the recoil to leap backward.

Kaguya, the clan leader who had been stabbed in the neck with a kunai, also broke free from the illusion.

But after his carotid artery was pierced, he began to feel his strength rapidly draining away.

But there was no sign of panic on her face; instead, a flush rose to her cheeks.

"Early fern..."

Bone pierced through the body, seemingly about to burst forth.

"Firelight Venerable!"

With a wave of his right hand, Uchiha Tokumitsu unleashed a fiery dragon that lunged at Kaguya Clan Chief.

"boom!"

The head of the Kaguya clan chief was bitten squarely by the Flame Dragon Firelight Lord, and his head immediately splattered juice everywhere like a watermelon.

The dragon's body then coiled around the headless corpse of the Kaguya clan chief, and under the strangulation force and intense heat, the powerful body was reduced to a skeleton.

"You're so brave, do your ancestors know?!" Uchiha Tokumitsu cursed angrily, "Did Kaguya give you all her courage?!"

I looked up at the sky, but unfortunately it was still daytime and I couldn't see the moon.

Uchiha Tokumitsu exhaled, reached out and channeled his chakra to retrieve his katana, and continued his charge into the chaotic Kirigakure army.

Chapter 136 Fighting and Retreating with the Speed ​​of the Wind

Uchiha Tokumitsu, like a lumberjack, swung his sword and cleaved through the exoskeleton of a heavily wounded Kaguya ninja covered in bone spurs, then sawed off his head.

The small katana that had accompanied him through countless battles since the beginning of the war was now riddled with nicks and chips due to the high frequency and intensity of its swings and impacts.

A perfectly good knife has been turned into a handsaw after this battle.

The battle was over. Apart from three Kaguya ninja who were seriously wounded and captured, the rest of the Kaguya ninja army fell to the swords of the Uchiha ninja army. The four hundred or so Kirigakure ninja who accompanied the army scattered and fled immediately after the Kaguya ninja army was wiped out.

Uchiha Tokumitsu had no interest in having his subordinate ninjas hunt him down.

After all, fighting at sea has never been the home ground for the Uchiha clan, who specialize in Fire Release techniques.

"Kaguya's bones are really tough..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu took out a sealing scroll from the scroll case of his Jonin uniform, then took out a spare short sword and swung it once. He felt that it didn't have the same feel as the tachi he usually used.

"The Kaguya clan is known as the best close combat team in Kirigakure, yet they still fell to the mighty Lord Tokumitsu's blade..."

The Uchiha Jonin standing nearby spoke up respectfully.

In this battle, Uchiha Tokumitsu displayed his strength to the fullest, completely winning over all the Uchiha clan members who participated in the battle.

"The losses among our clansmen were also considerable..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu looked around the battlefield and sighed sadly.

In this battle, twenty-two members of the Uchiha clan died, all of whom were Chunin-level; forty-nine were wounded, including two Jonin.

Of the twelve Hyuga ninjas who had regrouped, three were killed in this battle.

In other words, the Uchiha ninja army lost nearly half of its combat personnel before the wounded had fully recovered.

"But thirteen members of the clan also broke through to awaken the three-tomoe Sharingan in this battle, which is the greatest joy."

The Uchiha Jonin said earnestly, "Lord Tokuko, while every clansman's life is indeed precious, and your compassion has moved us, the Jonin with three tomoe are the clan's most valuable elite..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu had no intention of discussing the right or wrong of this kind of thinking that was entirely based on power; he simply nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Under the medical ninjutsu treatment of the Uzumaki ninja, the injured Uchiha ninja quickly regained his mobility. Although his face was still pale and his combat power had greatly decreased, at least he would not become a burden to the ninja army.

"Hurry up and clear the battlefield! We're about to move!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned and shouted.

"Yes!"

The Uchiha ninjas responded in unison, speeding up the clearing of the battlefield and setting up traps.

"Lord Tokumitsu..."

A Hyuga ninja stepped forward and bowed.

"Junior Inspector Xiu Hong, have you spotted the enemy?"

Hyuga Shuhiro is one of the Jonin leading the Hyuga ninja team who were ordered to join the Uzushiogakure war zone to assist in military intelligence reconnaissance missions.

"Reports from the front lines indicate that the Hozuki Division of the Kirigakure Ninja Army is advancing towards headquarters. Please make your decision."

"What about the Hidden Mist Main Camp in the northwest?" Uchiha Tokumitsu asked, frowning.

"The Kirigakure main force is advancing into the heart of the Land of Whirlpools, and no unusual deployments have been detected."

Hinata Shuhiro replied.

"Prepare to move. You will be our guide heading south. We'll ambush the Hozuki clan's Kirigakure ninja army!"

"As ordered!"

Hyuga Shuhiro bowed again and withdrew, then summoned his Hyuga ninjas to disperse and monitor the pre-arranged battlefield.

In order to keep abreast of every move on the battlefield in the Land of Whirlpools, Uchiha Tokumitsu deployed sixty Hyuga ninjas throughout the Land of Whirlpools to provide timely intelligence to the Uchiha ninja army in charge of the battle.

Intelligence reports were relayed through multiple people.

Each Hyuga ninja, upon discovering enemy activity, would set up a corresponding coded marker at a designated location. Hyuga ninjas behind would then set up their own coded markers in turn to relay the information to the operations headquarters.

Although doing so would result in the same information being transmitted back multiple times, making it slightly less efficient, it would ensure that all of Kirigakure's movements were under Uchiha Tokumitsu's control.

Before long, the Uchiha ninja army completed the battlefield cleanup and gathered in front of Uchiha Tokumitsu to receive instructions.

"Our next mission is to head south and ambush the Kirigakure ninja of the Hozuki clan!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said solemnly, "We will depart in five minutes! Let's begin pre-battle preparations!"

"As ordered!"

The Uchiha ninjas bowed their heads and shouted in unison, then quickly checked and replenished their combat supplies.

“The wounded clansmen do not need to participate in the first battle…” Uchiha Tokumitsu said to the sixty-nine wounded Uchiha ninjas, “I have other arrangements for your combat sequence.”

He then said to the Uzumaki ninja, "I would appreciate it if you could help me set up a concealment barrier at that time..."

"It is my honor to serve you."

The ninja bowed and quickly said.

After reassigning the wounded Uchiha ninjas to a second combat echelon, Uchiha Tokumitsu only had seventy combat personnel available for the battle, including nineteen Jonin.

"If we ambush them and then fly kites, that should work..."

After taking out the map, Uchiha Tokumitsu quickly identified two pre-planned battlefields based on the northward route of the Kirigakure Hozuki Clan.

The main battlefield is located on one side of the northward route of the Kirigakure Hozuki clan. Three Uzumaki ninjas will set up a concealment barrier and send out a small team disguised as a small team to lure the enemy. If the enemy is a small group of ninjas driving them away, they will be wiped out. If it is a large group attacking, the ambushers will launch an attack on them. Afterwards, they will immediately disengage from the battle and retreat to the second position guarded by the wounded.

Although he felt somewhat guilty about sending his clansmen into battle injured, this was a helpless move by Uchiha Tokumitsu in order to maximize the combat power of the ninja army under his command.

"Lord Tokugaku, there are still three of Kaguya's prisoners. What should we do with them?" A Jonin from the Uchiha clan stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "If we need to move on to a different operation now, perhaps we should just..."

After saying that, he even made a hand chop gesture.
