Naruto: All My Targets Are Ninjutsu.

Inuzuka Tsurugi, riding on Kuromaru, stopped. "According to the preliminary reconnaissance, there should be four to eight people stationed at this outpost, but they are mostly Chunin. With your abilities, you should be able to take it down. You can arrange the specific tactics yourselves; I won't interfere."

"Let's go. Remember to give me a signal after you've succeeded."

After saying that, the Inuzuka Claw squad hurriedly left and continued their journey towards the northwest watchtower.

Mikami Yu and the others squatted down on the spot, parted the bushes, and looked at the watchtower dozens of meters away.

"...According to Inuzuka-senpai, these watchtowers were originally located in Konoha. They were built on high ground, giving them a commanding view. Anyone who gets within two or three hundred meters will be detected instantly. Moreover, there may be traps and mechanisms set up around them, making a direct assault very difficult."

"I suggest a feint attack. Obito and Rin, with several water clones, will feign a frontal assault to draw their attention, while Yu and I will flank from the side and rear to launch a surprise attack. If we can take out those two night watchmen, it will be a four-on-four situation, giving us the advantage!"

Kakashi said.

"it is good."

Yu Mikami nodded.

Rin Nohara and Obito had no objections.

Actually, Yu Mikami has a better tactic here, such as turning into a bird and flying over to drop explosive tags, catching the opponent off guard... But there's no need to show off like that, just focus on playing a team game.

"It's about midnight now. Let's wait another hour, until the early hours of the morning when most people are most tired, before we start."

"it is good."

They all fell silent, began to adjust their mindset, and prepared to act.

Time passed second by second.

Around 1 a.m., Kakashi made a hand gesture.

Then, Obito and Rin Nohara got up and, with four or five water clones created by Yu Mikami, Kakashi, and Rin herself, made their way towards the front of the watchtower. During the journey, some of the water clones stepped on traps, some fell into deep pits, and some detonated explosive tags.

These commotions quickly attracted the attention of the Sand Village sentries.

One of them raised his bow and arrow and aimed downwards.

The other person went inside to notify their companion.

"Now!"

Kakashi said.

Then, two white figures shot out from the side and rear of the watchtower in two different directions!

There are naturally traps on the ground here as well.

However, Yu Mikami and Kakashi are both incredibly skilled, one with a cheat code and the other with extensive experience. Even if they accidentally step into a trap, they can dodge it immediately or be pulled away by the other party.

When they were about a hundred meters apart, Kakashi took out a bow and arrow from his back, drew the bow, nocked an arrow, and shot it—this thing was given to him by the Inuzuka Claw Squad, and it was one of the less commonly used weapons of ninjas, but it was very useful in this kind of siege battle.

call out--!

A sharp whistling sound rang out!

The arrow flew precisely over a straight line of more than 100 meters, striking the sentry on the watchtower from behind. Although the latter heard the sound of the arrow and turned to dodge, the several explosive tags attached to the arrow detonated with a loud "bang," creating a blinding flash of light!

"Enemy attack—!"

Exclamations rang out.

Disorderly figures began to appear inside the watchtower.

Two Sand Ninja rushed out of the watchtower to prepare for battle, while the others were a step behind, still getting dressed inside the building.

While no one was on the watchtower,

Using their water clones to clear a path, Obito and Rin Nohara quickly rushed to the scene. They then pulled out kunai and shuriken from their ninja tool pouches and began throwing them into the wall, some of which were attached with explosive tags. Flames erupted, and the two of them created the effect of four or five people fighting.

Meanwhile, at the same time as the explosion, Mikami Yu used a "Substitution Jutsu" to cross 40 meters and arrive at the watchtower. He then leaped over the fence and, upon landing, jumped again, smashing through the window of the building inside like a cannonball!

—The layout of these bases is almost identical to the one that Mikami Yu and his group had stayed at before, so even though it was their first time here, Mikami Yu was very familiar with the layout.

"Splash!"

The sound of shattering glass was deafening.

Mikami Yu landed with a somersault, and before he could even stand up, he immediately formed hand seals, opened his mouth towards the direction of the throng of people, and a burst of scorching heat shot out—

"Fireball Technique: Incineration!"

boom!!!

A blazing white flame, carrying terrifying heat, surged out and spread outwards!

The interior space of the watchtower is about two or three hundred square meters, and about 20 meters wide and long. Now, Mikami Yu's fireball has occupied almost a third of the entire room, instantly sucking out the air.

One of the Sand Ninjas was engulfed by the flames because he was too close, and turned into a charred mess with a scream. Most ninjas can withstand flames of a few hundred degrees, but if they are not prepared, they will basically die.

The other Sand Ninjas, though not in such dire condition, were also temporarily blinded by the intense light. Some retreated frantically to find cover, others threw kunai and shuriken haphazardly toward the flames, and still others formed hand seals to unleash ninjutsu.

Unfortunately, all of these attacks missed.

because……

"Instant Shadow Killing Formation—Activate!"

The "Phantom Stage" unfolds.

Amidst the horrified gazes of the Sand Ninja, Mikami Yu's figure vanished instantly, then multiplied again, appearing like a ghost within the building. Each appearance carried an incomparably sharp aura, the short sword in his hand reflecting the still-burning flames, its blade slicing through the air with a sharp whistling sound!

Actually, Yu Mikami couldn't see the situation inside the room very clearly at this moment. After all, that "Great Fireball" had not only blocked the Sand Ninja's vision, but also his own.

but……

There's no need to see clearly; just sense the opponent's chakra fluctuations and fly over to the nearest location. The rest is handled by the [Heart Blade Domain]. As long as the "Substitution Technique" is activated and there's someone within two or three meters, just slash at the white dotted line.

While he was outside, Mikami Yu had already sacrificed several water clones, stacking four layers of the "Desperate Soldier Will Win" buff. Combined with his use of the Super Strength Technique, his speed and strength were now more than double what they were used to. With one strike, no one could stop him.

Even if he doesn't choose the right landing point during a teleportation and crashes into a Sand Ninja's ninja tool or ninjutsu, he can still dodge or deflect the opponent's attack using the "Substitution Jutsu" with no cooldown under "Instant Hell Shadow Killing Formation" or the dotted lines within the [Heart Blade Domain].

"Pfft!"

"Ugh!"

"Do not--!"

The blade flashed like lightning, and blood blossomed!

Amidst the chaotic light and shadow, the Sand Ninja felt only the chilling glint of blades and killing intent from all directions. They didn't even know where to direct their resistance, and their screams quickly merged into one.

When Kakashi dealt with the two outer enemies and kicked open the wooden door to rush in to provide support, what he saw was a hellish scene—

The space, which was over 200 square meters, was covered in blood.

Four or five Sand Ninja lay dead in pools of blood, each bearing more than one fatal wound. The air was thick with the stench of blood and the acrid smell of burning flesh. Mikami Yu's figure had vanished, but the chilling glint of his blade seemed to linger in the surroundings.

Chapter 118: Mikami Yu won MVP, Obito was just an easy win (Third update)

Faced with this scene, Kakashi's dead fish eyes couldn't help but contract slightly, and a tremor flashed across his pupils.

—Too fast.

While he himself was confident he could handle four or five Sand Ninja single-handedly, it would normally require a prolonged battle, possibly resulting in injuries. But now, from the moment Mikami Yu burst in, releasing that Fire Release technique whose chakra fluctuations could be felt even from outside, to his charge in…

How much time has passed in total?

Half a minute? Or twenty seconds?

Is that all?

Even if there are four or five pigs lying here, it would still take some time to slaughter them all, right?

Suddenly, a loud shout came from upstairs, as if someone had released a wind-escape technique, which shook the walls and floor a few times. Then there were several dull thuds and the sound of blades piercing flesh, before everything fell silent.

Until then.

Obito and Rin Nohara then broke in from the main entrance.

The former, his face flushed with the excitement of charging forward, entered the room and immediately began shouting as he looked around, intending to give the enemy a good "fireball"; while the latter, holding a kunai, nervously pursed his lips, searching for the figures of Mikami Yu and Kakashi.

"...Huh, where's Yuu?"

Nohara Lin asked.

"It should be upstairs."

Kakashi said.

"Kakashi, did...did you two do all of this?"

Obito finally saw the scene inside the room clearly, and pointed to the corpses around him with a look of surprise, asking...

No, you guys did all the work, what were Lin and me supposed to do?

"..."

Kakashi hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Just then, footsteps sounded from the wooden steps. It was Mikami Yu, carrying a sword, walking down the stairs expressionlessly. His fair and delicate face was stained with a few spots of crimson blood, making him look like a Shura who had emerged from a bloodbath.

"It's over."

The entire raid, from start to finish, took no more than five minutes at most.

Of the eight Sand Ninja inside the watchtower, Mikami Yu killed six of them, earning him the MVP title for the entire battle; Kakashi took down two; Obito and Nohara Rin were busy for a long time, but in the end, they only served as the atmosphere-setter, doing nothing except attracting attention outside and throwing kunai.

Nohara Rin had no objection to this.

But Obito felt somewhat dissatisfied:

"Hey... Yu! Kakashi! You guys are way too fast! According to the 'trolley problem,' you should have left six enemies behind so I could choose to kill one or five. Rin and I finally made it in, and we didn't even get a single opponent! That's too much!"

"..."

Is this how Yushin Mikami uses the "trolley problem"?

However, seeing Obito's indignant expression, he readily agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll definitely do it next time."

"...That's more like it."

Next.

Mikami Yu skillfully began looting the corpses, collecting usable ninja tools, rations, and explosive tags from the Sand Ninjas—there was no other way, the "Konoha Cola" plan hadn't been realized yet, and as a child from a commoner family, he still had to live frugally at times like this.

Nohara Rin also came over to help, and took the opportunity to check if he had any new injuries.

Kakashi took the signal flare he had found on another Sand Ninja, walked to an open area outside the base, and pulled the fuse.

"Boom-bang!"

A blinding red signal flare rose into the night sky, trailing a plume of flame, and exploded high in the air, creating a brief red burst that stood out starkly against the silent night.

This signal flare signifies the successful completion of the operation by Mikami Yu and his team, and also serves as a diversionary tactic against the Sand Ninja of Oborozuki Castle.

If the enemy forces are diverted from Oborozuki Castle to reinforce this outpost, the defenses within the base will be weakened, creating an opportunity for Inuzuka Tsurugi and Namikaze Minato to act. Meanwhile, Mikami Yu's squad can try to eliminate the enemy reinforcements and rack up more battle points.

If they don't come, that's fine. Mikami Yu and the others can go directly to Oborozuki Castle and join the other two teams.

present.

After quickly cleaning up the scene, Mikami and his companions hurriedly left, lying in ambush on a high ground with a good view not far from the watchtower, recovering their chakra while waiting for the Sand Ninja's reaction.

It's getting a bit chilly now.

Mikami Yu pulled a blanket from his ninja tool bag and handed it to Nohara Rin, who was standing next to him.

The latter paused for a moment, then his face lit up with surprise, and he whispered, "Eh? Yu-kun, is it really necessary? The people from Sunagakure might be here soon..."

"It's okay, we'll talk about it when we get here."

Yu Mikami said.

Obito turned his head: "What are you talking about?"

"It's okay, go have fun."

"?"

Not long after.

Rapid footsteps approached from afar, revealing a four-man Sand Village squad rushing towards them from the direction of Oborozuki Castle. They were clearly well-trained, remaining vigilant as they moved, and one of them seemed to be a sensory ninja, as he suddenly glanced towards the high ground where Mikami Yu and the others were.

"...Have we been discovered?"

"Then there's no other way but to confront them head-on."
