Uchiha's personal opinion

"Boom boom boom!"

Three fiery sword energies struck Jiraiya's protective needle Jizo, slashing his silver hair and sending it flying everywhere. However, Jiraiya had already reached the three Uchiha Jonin.

"Magic Illusion: The Shackles Technique!"

The three Uchiha Jonin crouched slightly, their Sharingan eyes aimed directly at Jiraiya's, and simultaneously activated a genjutsu.

Under the combined effect of the three illusions, Jiraiya immediately froze, and a look of panic appeared on his face.

"Instantaneous Slash!"

Two Uchiha Jonin simultaneously used the Body Flicker Technique to attack, slashing their swords and cutting Jiraiya into three pieces.

"Ninjutsu: Hair Needle Senbon!"

Unexpectedly, the hair that was originally scattered on the ground was suddenly transformed into hard senbon needles by ninjutsu, which shot towards the Uchiha Jonin who had just shown a look of joy.

"what!"

The Uchiha Jonin were immediately taken aback.

But then, Jiraiya, who had been cut into three pieces, turned into a cloud of smoke, and a small frog leaped out of the smoke with its hands forming hand seals.

"Ninja Art: Toad Oil Bomb!"

A stream of highly viscous chakra toad oil sprayed from the little frog's mouth, covering the Uchiha Jonin who was frantically slashing through the hairy senbon needles with his sword.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

A Jonin from the Uchiha clan swiftly spat out a massive fireball, aiming it at the chakra toad oil.

"boom!"

The toad oil was immediately ignited by the Fireball Jutsu. Forced by the high-temperature flames, the three Uchiha Jonin jumped backward to avoid the burn damage from the ninjutsu.

This was a desperate measure under close-range attack. Although the characteristics of the ninjutsu used by the little frog that Jiraiya transformed into indicated that it was chakra oil with sticky and flammable properties, and attacking with fire release might affect him, it was still better than being splashed with toad oil and then being forced to be timid by the opponent's fire release.

Although the three Uchiha Jonin successfully escaped the oil explosion zone, their skin was red and their hair was curly from the high-temperature flames. The Uchiha ninjas and the Ninjago of Mount Myōboku who were engaged in fierce fighting nearby were also affected to some extent.

"Not to be underestimated..."

The three Uchiha Jonin focused their attention once again, preparing to launch an attack.

"You Uchiha brats, prepare to die!"

Jiraiya burst out of the blast zone engulfed in flames, once again charging towards the Uchiha Jonin.

"Humph!"

Despite the slight setback, the Uchiha Jonin remained fearless, brandishing their swords and charging straight at Jiraiya once again.

At this moment, the battle between the conservative Uchiha ninjas and the Gintoki reached its most intense stage.

After three Uchiha Jonin went into battle against Jiraiya, the conservative Uchiha ninja force numbered only twenty, including six Jonin who served as commanders and main combatants.

After the first round of battle, more than eighty Greninja frogs from Mount Myōboku survived.

The number of people on both sides is more than four times that of each other.

But the bloodthirsty Uchiha ninjas, led by six Jonin, all glared with their blood-red Sharingan eyes and fought a fierce battle against the overwhelmingly numerous Ninja Frogs.

After a bloody battle, the conservative Uchiha ninja army suffered three more deaths and two more serious injuries, while the Ninja Frogs had nearly twenty corpses lying on the ground.

This victory was achieved only with the help of special fighting toads such as Iron-Armed Toad and Mighty Toad among the Greninja.

The Greninja frogs felt a chill run down their spines.

Although judging from the exchange ratio, the Ninja Frogs could still completely annihilate this Uchiha ninja army, the heavy casualties still made the Ninja Frogs feel uneasy.

I want to die without Greninja.

As the backbone of Mount Myōboku, these elite ninja frogs, though well-trained, had never experienced such a brutal battle before. The Uchiha ninjas' fearless tactics of trading blows for lives made them feel extremely uncomfortable.

In previous battles against Ryuchi Cave, even if the ninja frog was seriously injured, it would quickly escape the battlefield by canceling the summoning jutsu to avoid dying on the spot. However, this battle against the Uchiha ninja army, which was outnumbered by an absolute majority, truly allowed these outcasts to experience the power of the ninja army, which came from a prestigious ninja family in the ninja world.

The Uchiha ninja army in front of them was not the most elite Deko Red Guard of the Uchiha clan, but just a group of unpopular exiles...

"As expected... an outcast is an outcast. The so-called sacred land for summoning beasts is nothing special!"

The Uchiha Jonin who commanded the ninja army spat out a mouthful of blood, grinned maliciously, and his eyes burned even more fiercely.

"You're not dead yet, are you?"

The Uchiha Jonin shouted to the two heavily injured clansmen who had just bandaged him.

"I could crush another toad!"

Two severely injured Uchiha ninjas, with the help of their clansmen, struggled to their feet. Although their faces were pale, they remained defiant.

"As long as I survive this battle, I will risk further punishment to return to the village and kneel before Lord Deguang to beg for forgiveness!"

The Uchiha Jonin who commanded the ninja army chuckled, his eyes twitching uncontrollably, his expression growing increasingly ferocious: "Lord Tokuko is right, the Hokage lineage has never given up on destroying us, even the remnants of the rogue ninjas are no exception!"

"Keep going!"

After catching his breath, Iron-Armed Toad saw that the morale of his Greninja Frogs was gradually declining, so he quickly ordered another attack.

"Come on, you toads!"

The Uchiha ninja, appearing frenzied, immediately charged forward with their swords.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

"Water Release: Toad Gun!"

Then came another round of extremely bloody fighting.

……

On the other side, the three Uchiha Jonin fighting Jiraiya began to gradually fall into a disadvantageous position. However, even so, the experienced Uchiha Jonin still fought steadily and did not allow Jiraiya, who was constantly using various Myoboku Mountain secret techniques, to find any opportunity to kill. The battle between the two sides remained in a stalemate.

Although Jiraiya was generally dominating the three Uchiha Jonin, he was gradually becoming anxious.

As an experienced former commander, he could also see that the battle between the ninja frog and the Uchiha ninja army was far from ideal.

Even with a four-fold numerical advantage, they failed to extend their lead, which speaks volumes about the problem.

Moreover, he himself was already struggling against three Jonin who were not well-known in the Uchiha clan. If the Ninja Frogs were to be driven to the brink of collapse by the Uchiha ninja army, then he would also be in a disadvantageous position.

"That was a bit too much of a gamble..."

Jiraiya originally intended to use the Summoning Jutsu to summon the two sages of Mount Myōboku for assistance, but he couldn't find an opportunity due to the entanglement of the three Uchiha Jonin, let alone find a chance to enter Sage Mode alone.

"Clang!"

After a round of slashing and hacking, Jiraiya's short sword was cleaved in two when he blocked a downward slash from a Jonin of the Uchiha clan.

To avoid the katana that was slashing towards his face, Jiraiya had no choice but to tilt his head back and push off the ground with his right foot to retreat and dodge the blade.

"A great opportunity!"

The other two Uchiha Jonin immediately flashed to Jiraiya's sides in a sword-drawing stance, simultaneously slashing with their swords.

"Clang!"

Pursued by the Uchiha Jonin, Jiraiya had no choice but to raise both arms at the same time, attempting to block the ninja sword attack with his wrist guards.

But under the sharp slash of the ninja sword, even the steel-forged wrist guards were shattered, and Jiraiya's arms were cut with deep gashes. However, it was precisely because he risked injury to parry that Jiraiya once again seized the opportunity to use the Body Flicker Technique to escape the entanglement.

Black blood gushed from the wounds on his arms.

"The ninja sword is poisoned!"

Jiraiya, who was lagging behind, was immediately startled!

It is extremely rare for Uchiha ninjas to use poison!

"Take advantage of his wounds and kill him!"

The three Uchiha Jonin immediately shouted and pressed their advantage.

"There's no other way..."

Jiraiya took a deep breath, quickly bit his finger until it bled, desperately drew out chakra, and slammed it to the ground:

"Spiritualism—"

"Toad Bunta!"

A gigantic, colossal ninja frog burst forth, forcing the three Uchiha ninjas to immediately retreat.

Having fought to this point, he no longer cared about concealing his presence.

Once Gamabunta appeared, everyone in the small town with eyes would know who was in charge of the attack, and Konoha would definitely know about it as well. There was no way to deceive them—unless Jiraiya ended the battle in a very short time and killed all the witnesses.

But that's no longer possible.

As the battle continued, the town's administrators had already launched signal flares to send messages into the distance. Moreover, as Gamabunta burst out, another group of civilians who had been watching the spectacle immediately fled the town.

As ordinary citizens of the Rain Kingdom, who grew up in a war-torn land, they knew very well what level of excitement was acceptable and what level of excitement was deadly.

"Toad Dagger Slash!"

Gamabunta, one of the high-ranking members of Mount Myōboku, quickly grasped the situation with a glance from his bulging eyes. Without wasting words with Jiraiya, he immediately drew his short sword and slashed at the three Uchiha Jonin.

Although it is called a short sword, it is only relative to the massive size of Gamabunta. Compared to the ninjas, Gamabunta's short sword is simply a huge and incomparable metal wall. Every swing brings up a fierce gale, forcing the Uchiha Jonin to jump up and down without any power to fight back.

The absolute difference in size is terrifying.

"Attention, men!"

Gamabunta shouted at the Ninja Tabi who were engaged in fierce battle with the Uchiha ninja army, and then leaped into the air:

"—The art of roof collapse!"

The massive body crashed down on the Uchiha ninja formation, forcing the Uchiha ninjas to scatter and flee.

"boom!"

The enormous body landed, kicking up clouds of dust.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

A series of explosive tags rang out beneath Gamabunta.

"Croak!"

Although the explosive tags were nothing to Gamabunta, they still made him cry out in pain.
