Uchiha's personal opinion

Before he could even let out a scream, the pale-faced monster was beheaded by Uchiha Shisui with a single slash!

"call……"

But just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the pale, beheaded monster didn't fall to the ground, nor did it spurt blood from its neck. Instead, its body turned to wood, and then it clapped its hands together again—

"Wood Release: Vajra Summoning Wood!"

Wooden pillars flew out from the ground, sending Uchiha Shisui flying.

"Oh dear~ You guys actually managed to defeat my clone!"

At this moment, the body of a pale, strange man emerged from the wooden ingot wall, clapping his hands while laughing grotesquely.

Uchiha Shisui, who had finally managed to use the Body Flicker Technique to return to the Special Forces ninja formation in mid-air, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Have you notified the teacher?

Uchiha Shisui gripped his katana tightly and asked in a low voice.

"The telegraph operator has already sent a coded message back..."

Elephant also drew his ninja sword, ready to fight, while whispering a reply.

"But what exactly is this thing...?"

Uchiha Shisui swallowed hard, looking somewhat bewildered.

"It possesses Wood Release but isn't a Senju clan member, and it seems to have some intellectual issues; however, one thing is certain: it's not human..."

Elephant replied in a low voice.

"Oh ho, I forgot~"

The pale, strange man suddenly clapped his hands in a funny way and asked, "There's a question you guys should be able to answer~"

"What does it feel like to have a bowel movement?"

"Huh?"

Uchiha Shisui and Zou were immediately startled!

Is this some kind of novel psychological persuasion tactic?

Chapter 383 A Glimmer of Hope

After being sent flying by several giant logs, Uchiha Shisui first rolled to dissipate the force, and then used the Body Flicker Technique to flash back into the formation, but he still felt a dull pain in his chest, and the pain became more and more obvious with each breath.

It's obvious that even if the ribs weren't broken, they were at least cracked from the impact.

The problem was that Uchiha Shisui thought this was just a simple clearing mission, so he didn't follow the usual practice of bringing a medical ninja. He only had some basic first aid knowledge and was unable to use medical ninjutsu to save himself, so he could only endure the pain and continue to stand ready.

Hehehehe!

The pale, strange figure's upper body protruded beyond the wooden wall, writhing and making all sorts of bizarre noises, as if celebrating something.

"That's the feeling!"

The pale, strange man's voice grew louder and louder, "So this is what it feels like to be stuck between wooden walls and excrement!"

These words caused even the experienced and sullen Captain Elephant to break down.

Where did this weirdo come from...?

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

At this moment, along with the signal flares and coded messages, red and blue signal flares also rose in response from the direction of Konoha. Judging from the location of the signal flares, reinforcements would arrive in about thirty minutes.

But those thirty minutes were really hard to endure.

Uchiha Shisui swallowed hard, his Sharingan eyes spinning rapidly as he tried to find a weakness in the pale-faced monster.

"Ah~ what a perfect experience~"

A look of relief appeared on the pale, strange man's face as he slowly pulled his lower body out of the wooden ingot wall.

"It's really unpleasant that you can experience the feeling of pooping right after you're born!"

Although they didn't know what connection there was between poop and feeling uncomfortable, Uchiha Shisui and Captain Elephant immediately launched an attack!

"Uchiha Style: Sun Halo Dance!"

"Konoha Style: Dance of the Crescent Moon!"

Uchiha Shisui, enveloped in a fiery aura, and Captain Elephant, who created three shadow clones, simultaneously swung their blades and launched a Body Flicker Attack. The remaining special operations ninjas immediately began to unleash their signature ninjutsu.

"Shadow Imitation Technique!"

"The Art of Mind Transference!"

Among the special ninjas in the rear, a ninja from the Yamanaka clan first marked the pale monster that was still playing with a secret technique, and then the shadow of the Nara clan special ninja also connected with its shadow through the cover of the ground rubble.

"It's done!"

The two special ninjas were immediately delighted.

But then the mountain ninja foamed at the mouth and collapsed to the ground, and the Nara ninja clan, upon seeing the pale, strange man's shadow, broke apart inch by inch as he stepped forward, and were also provoked by the backlash of the secret technique, causing him to vomit blood.

"Huh! What's that poop?"

The pale-faced monster only felt a slight sluggishness in his body, but he didn't pay much attention to it because Uchiha Shisui and Captain Elephant had already attacked.

"Wood Release: Silent Binding Technique!"

The pale-faced monster showed no fear. Instead, he clapped his hands again, and countless bone spurs suddenly grew from his back. These spurs then transformed into countless vines that flew through the air and swept towards Uchiha Shisui and Captain Elephant.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Uchiha Shisui immediately stopped in mid-air and spit a Great Fireball at the vines. At the same time, he used the recoil from the mid-air technique to stabilize his body and then forcibly used the Body Flicker Technique to dodge.

Captain Elephant's three shadow clones were blasted apart by the vines that shot towards him, with two of them exploding in mid-air. His final true form narrowly avoided the vines' blows.

From their coordinated attack to being easily thwarted by the pale monster, the first round of proactive offensive lasted less than a minute!

With Wood Release, almost all ninjutsu and taijutsu attacks will be neutralized. How can we fight against that?

Uchiha Shisui had a toothache.

"Hehehe! It's my turn! It's my turn!"

The pale, strange man chuckled maliciously and then lunged at Uchiha Shisui.

"Magic Illusion: The Shackles Technique!"

Uchiha Shisui seized the opportunity and activated his genjutsu by staring directly into the pale monster's red eyes with his Sharingan.

The pale-faced monster froze instantly!

"A great opportunity!"

Before Uchiha Shisui could use any ninjutsu, he immediately pulled out kunai with explosive tags attached from his ninja tool pouch and shot them at the pale monster.

In addition, the other special ninjas also launched an attack, hurling various ninja tools at the pale monster.

You've been scammed!

Suddenly, just as the kunai was about to pierce the pale monster's body, an extremely vivid mocking expression appeared on its face, and then its figure immediately disappeared without a trace!

"It's the Body Instant Technique!"

Uchiha Shisui only had time to give a warning before a special ninja standing nearby had his legs grabbed by two claws that emerged from the ground.

"Wood Release: Wood Splintering Technique!"

Wooden spikes pierced the legs of the special operations ninja from the two pale claws on the ground, instantly squeezing his legs into a cloud of blood mist!

"Ahhhh!!!"

The special operations ninja who had lost both legs could no longer suppress his senses. The immense pain from the bottom up instantly shattered his spirit, and he couldn't help but let out a shrill scream.

But the splinter still pierced its body from bottom to top, skewering it like a quail on a barbecue grill.

"Incorrect answer, first poop disposal complete~"

A pale, grotesque figure emerged from underground with a grin, its face twisted in a ferocious, menacing expression: "It's not a teleportation technique~ If you guess wrong, you'll be subject to random punishment~"

The special operations ninjas felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!

Before they could even see how the pale, strange man used ninjutsu and disappeared underground, one of their companions was easily killed!

Even though their long-term training had almost worn away their emotions, they still couldn't accept this outcome.

Faced with such a huge disparity in strength, it would be meaningless for them to fight to the death!

And this is almost the most meaningless way to die!

"Water Release·Water Crush Wave!"

"Lightning Release: Earth Walk!"

But as Konoha ninjas, their dignity did not allow them to flee in fear of battle!

"Uchiha Style: Flash Slash!"

"Konoha Style Secret Sword - Moon Sword!"

Led by Uchiha Shisui and Captain Elephant, the special operations ninjas launched another attack.

"Wood Release: Thorn Killing Technique!"

The pale-faced monster showed no fear. He then waved his right hand and shot out a series of thorny vines full of barbs at the various ninja tools that were coming at him!

"Pong!"

The thorny vines instantly shattered all kinds of ninjutsu, and absorbed the scattered chakra. The vines, however, continued to swirl towards the special ninjas with undiminished momentum.

At the same time, the pale-faced monster stretched out his left hand, formed a hand seal, and turned his head to laugh twice at Uchiha Shisui, who was swinging his blade at him.

Although he sensed something was wrong, the pale-faced monster's strange appearance only fueled Uchiha Shisui's inner rage. He slashed fiercely at the pale-faced monster's neck with a blade formed from highly concentrated fire chakra.

"Crack!"

The pale-faced monster bent down slightly and pressed down on Uchiha Shisui's katana with his teeth. Although his mouth was torn open by the blade, no blood flowed out!

Uchiha Shisui's heart skipped a beat, and it felt like it was about to jump out of his throat!

The several figures conjured by Captain Elephant's Moon Sword also swung their blades simultaneously, stabbing towards the pale monster who was biting the blade.
