"So they were looking for the Kazekage before? But why do the Sand Village ninjas think...?"

Mo paused halfway through his thought, remembering something else: a little over a month ago, he had wiped out Maki's squad in the Land of Rain and destroyed all traces of them before leaving.

"That makes sense..."

Maki is currently one of the top ninjas in Sunagakure, and such a person disappeared silently within the Land of Rain. Sunagakure believes there are clues to this, and it is possible that it is related to the disappearance of the Kazekage.

He glanced back at the members of Team 8 behind him and quickened his pace slightly, because the battlefield of the Sand Ninja and Yahiko was right in their path.

About fifteen minutes later, a series of crisp sounds of weapons clashing suddenly reached everyone's ears. The three members of the Eighth Squad quickly went on alert, took out their weapons, and slowed their pace.

However, before they could make a move, Uchiha Mo raised a hand to block them.

"This is not a battle you can interfere in. Protect your employer and keep a close watch."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo drew his ninja sword from his waist and vanished from the spot in an instant.

The three members of Class 8 hurriedly led their employer forward, while on the other side, Mo had already arrived at the side of the battle arena.

His gaze narrowed slightly, and two tomoe appeared as they spun, his eyes landing on the group of Sand Ninja. At the same time, with a thought, a phantom panel appeared before him.

Blue Baby Fusion Rate: 11.35% + 9.13% (When both stats reach 10%, the stealth ability is unlocked)

Mo is only 0.87% away from activating his stealth ability with Wind Release proficiency, and there are more than ten Sand Ninjas in front of him. As long as Yahiko and his two companions don't steal too many kills, Mo will be able to activate the first stage of Lanwa's ability soon.

Unfortunately, based on the abilities of the unlocked green and orange babies, the abilities obtained in the first stage are not complete and will be gradually completed as they are unlocked later.

Therefore, it is highly likely that Uchiha Mo will only obtain an ability similar to the ability to pass through or conceal one's aura, rather than the intangible ability that can be described as underhanded.

Mo flicked his right wrist, reversing his grip on the long sword, and then suddenly raised his left hand.

"boom--!"

A bright, blazing fire suddenly erupted from his palm, the flames displaying distinct layers of crimson, swaying gracefully in the wind as Mo ran, possessing a deadly, bewitching quality.

Although they hadn't yet approached the battlefield, their powerful aura instantly drew everyone's attention.

With his keen senses, Nagato instantly became alert. He used Shinra Tensei with one hand to push away the Sand Ninja, and when he turned his head, he saw a streak of blood rush into the battlefield like lightning!

  

As the black figure approached a Sand Ninja, the scorching wind brushed against his face. The powerful aura instantly drained the color from the Sand Ninja's face, leaving him pale and trembling with fear.

"Fire Release: Crimson Blaze!"

Mo slammed his palm into the chest of a Sand Ninja, and his extremely refined Fire Release chakra erupted instantly!

"Bear—Boom—!"

A burst of crimson flames instantly ignited his entire body, followed by a violent explosion from the location of Uchiha Mo's palm. The flames seemed to be catalyzed by the explosion, burning and extinguishing in an instant, leaving a charred humanoid skeleton flying backward!

Nagato's pupils contracted. "What kind of technique is that? That's absolutely explosive!"

A kunai flew from the side, but Mo's Sharingan spun, and he caught it, turning and stabbing it into the throat of a nearby Sand Ninja. Immediately after, he parried with his right hand, his longsword instantly blocking a sword slashing from behind.

Mo swung his right arm forward, deflecting the attack while simultaneously flipping his wrist to change his grip from a reverse to a normal one, and plunged the knife into the abdomen of the sand ninja rushing towards him.

At that moment, another gust of wind came from behind. Without even looking, Mo drew his sword and dodged to the side. A long sword brushed past Mo's clothes and slashed straight into the shoulder of the Sand Ninja who was clutching his abdomen.

"Ah!" the Sand Shinobi cried out in pain.

Mo clenched his right hand slightly, and crimson flames instantly spread across the ninja sword. With a horizontal slash, two terrified heads flew high into the air.

The next moment, a voice came from the side.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

As the strong wind rushed in, Mo remained calm and composed, his chakra surging rapidly within him.

"Crimson Blaze - Burning Ring!"

As soon as he finished speaking, crimson flames rapidly surged around Mo's body! The flames burned and swirled, instantly forming a barrier of fire.

"Boom! Bear—!"

The Wind Release: Great Breakthrough attack was instantly neutralized by the fire barrier, generating a wave of heat.

Mo turned to look at the Sand Ninja who had launched the sneak attack. Their eyes met, and the Sand Ninja immediately panicked and began to back away, but he fell to the ground after only two steps.

"boom!"

Mo's right palm ignited with crimson flames once more. Then, he threw his ninja sword to the ground and planted it firmly. With his left hand, he pulled on the crimson flames in his right palm, and a spear more than a meter long and entirely crimson appeared in Mo's hand.

"Crimson Blaze Spear!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo hurled his spear at the Sand Ninja. The crimson spear streaked through the air like a meteor, leaving a trail of blood before piercing the Sand Ninja's chest.

"Pfft! Sizzle~"

The crimson spear pierced through the sand ninja effortlessly, pinning him to the ground. Wisps of blue smoke rose from the wound, accompanied by a piercing evaporation sound. Then, the blood within the spear rapidly intensified, and then…

"Bang!"

A crater was blasted into the ground, and blood rained down, but Mo's expression remained calm. The Sand Ninja around him, however, were sweating profusely, their pupils contracted sharply, their gazes fixed on Mo, their bodies trembling, and their fighting spirit completely gone.

But Mo Ke had no intention of letting them go. He drew his ninja sword from the ground with one hand and began a slaughter like that of pigs and dogs.

"Uchiha... Mo! Don't do this, the rest of you have lost the will to fight!"

Yahiko and the other two had already instinctively stepped aside when Mo entered the arena because of his powerful aura. Now, seeing that Mo still had no intention of letting go of the Sand Ninja who had already given up resisting, they reacted and spoke up to stop him.

In the distance, the three members of Class 8 stood there, stunned, still unable to recover from the shock of what they had just witnessed.

"So...so strong!"

The three of them had the same thought in their minds. Although there were no Jonin among the Sand Ninja just now, and they were mostly Chunin and Genin, the impact of the casual slaughter on the battlefield was just too strong.

Mo ignored him and just kept swinging his knife.

A few breaths later, none of the Sand Ninjas on the field were still alive. Mo used the sleeve of his black robe to wipe the ninja sword clean before sheathing it.

"..."

Yahiko stood there stiffly, while the three members of Class 8 came to their senses and, with Terada Yusuke in tow, rushed excitedly to Sumi.

"Teacher Mo, what's the name of that fire jutsu you just used? It was so cool!" Moonlight Gale looked at Mo with bright eyes, without even coughing after finishing his sentence.

Mo glanced at him, "Fire Release: Crimson Blaze!"
