Naruto: The Uchiha Calabash Brothers are reshaping the ninja world

The stone was extremely fast, arriving in front of Mo in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the stone began to extend rapidly, changing its shape in an instant.

"Sealing - Lion's Roar!"

The enormous puppet lion head, with its gaping maw full of fangs, lunged at Uchiha Mo!

This is a sealing technique. The fangs on it can not only cause huge penetrating damage, but once the lion's head bites, the chakra in the controlled person will be completely sealed in an instant!

In the original timeline, Scorpion had already suffered from this move.

"A trivial skill."

Mo continued his charge forward, raising his right hand to his chest and aiming the tip of the Futsu-no-Mitama sword, which he held in reverse, at the lion-head-shaped puppet.

"Crimson Blaze - Darkening Spear!"

"Hey——!"

With a loud eagle's cry, the dense black light attached to Futsu no Mitama instantly surged wildly!

"Pfft!"

A black spearhead suddenly pierced through the lion puppet's mouth, and Mo gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with his right hand and pulled it outwards sharply.

"Pfft—"

The lion-headed puppet was instantly sliced ​​open, its intricate internal mechanisms rendered useless. At the same time, white flames suddenly erupted from the broken end and then surged upwards.

"Bear--!"

Flames erupted, instantly incinerating the puppet.

Mo swung his long sword, changing his grip from reverse to normal, his speed undiminished, his target straight at Chiyo!

Chiyo frowned solemnly, and with a flick of her hands, seven intact white puppets and three broken puppets rushed towards Uchiha Sumi at the same time.

At the same time, Chiyo spread her hands, and a dozen kunai strung together with chakra threads floated in front of her.

"Draw your blade!"

With a loud shout, the silk threads broke free, and the kunai shot out!

At the same time, Chiyo glanced at Orochimaru, her index and middle fingers trembled slightly, and the four puppets that were originally heading towards Uchiha Mo instantly changed direction and rushed towards Orochimaru.

Immediately afterward, Chiyo extended the length of the chakra threads while suddenly retreating and shouting:

  (Please remember the website 101k.k for the fastest chapter updates)

"Sunagakure ninja! Retreat!"

After calmly giving the order, she controlled the distance while moving closer to the main force of the puppet army.

Although Chiyo was heartbroken by Ebizo's death, she never intended to fight Uchiha Sumire to the death from the beginning; her anger was merely a ploy to mislead the enemy.

Chiyo had lived in the ninja world for many years and participated in both of the previous world wars. Because of this, she understood more rationally that the Sand Village ninjas were now finding it increasingly difficult to gain an advantage against Konoha.

Perhaps she hesitated at first, vaguely feeling that she could take the risk, but after making her first contact with Uchiha Sumi, Chiyo instantly changed her mind.

In this situation, even if they achieve a Pyrrhic victory, it will be difficult for the remaining forces to form an effective threat outside Konoha Village as originally planned, so as to negotiate interests with the Third Hokage.

In that case, preserving strength is the best option, even though this choice makes the operation seem so anticlimactic, or even absurd...

"Damn it! I never expected the Uchiha to be capable of this! Instead of staying behind in the village, they came to ambush us with a bunch of ragtag soldiers..."

Chiyo cursed inwardly, then glanced back and saw that the battle lines between the Sand Village and Konoha were slowly separating, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Uchiha Sumi used Futsu-no-Mitama to deal with the flying kunai, and eight white puppets instantly swarmed forward.

Mo looked up at a bull-headed guard puppet directly in front of him. Its fists seemed to be covered with some kind of special chakra, making them extremely powerful.

At the same time, the female puppet wielding dual swords and the blue-faced puppet capable of spitting steel cables to pierce and entangle enemies also charged in from the side.

Mo's eyes darted around as he dodged a heavy straight punch from the minotaur puppet. Then, he seized the opportunity to grab the puppet's arm with his right hand, using the force of his palm to spin in the air. At the same time, he dodged the large sword that came slashing from the side and arrived above the minotaur puppet.

"Whoosh!"

With a flick of his arm, Futsu-no-Mitama slashed at the chakra threads behind the bull-headed puppet, but the blue-faced puppet, which was already prepared, seized the opportunity and suddenly spat out a steel cable!

"Ding!"

The steel cable struck the inked blade head-on, sparks flying!

The steel cable snapped open instantly, and Mo's arm jolted slightly upwards. Just then, a strong gust of wind suddenly swept towards his side again! It was another large sword in the female puppet's hand!

"snort!"

Mo snorted coldly, twisted his right hand supporting the puppet's arm, and with a twist of his body, the large sword grazed Mo's face, missing its mark. Mo then used the momentum to flip over and fall, slamming his heel into the female puppet's head!

"Bang!"

Under the immense force, the female puppet slammed her head into the ground, her entire head exploding into fragments!

Unfortunately, as the pinnacle of traditional puppetry, the Chikamatsu Ten Puppet Masters' combat power is not greatly affected even if they are damaged, as long as their core area is not damaged.

The Three Treasures Puppet, which was previously blasted away by Shisui's Fire Release, still possessed a certain fighting power because its core inside its mouth was not damaged.

The female puppet convulsed, trying to get up and continue fighting, but just then...

A white flame suddenly ignited from the cut on her neck, and then instantly surged!

"Bear--!"

"..."

Even without the control abilities of Yin Release, Uchiha Mo managed to use his feet to perform Dark Release: Crimson Blaze, thanks to his fire control and lightning manipulation skills! Although the power was not as great as his usual hands, the characteristics of Dark Release perfectly made up for it!

At the same time, a dense black light instantly ignited on the gleaming blade of Futsu-no-Mitama!

Chiyo, a veteran of many battles, was extremely familiar with the weaknesses of puppeteers, so she kept a close watch on her own chakra threads. The reason the puppets didn't rush at once was because they had to consider each other's positions behind them.

Mo suddenly bent over, and the next moment, the bull-headed puppet's heavy fist grazed his clothes and landed on empty air again. However, just as he was about to get up and counterattack, the puppets actually maintained their positions and began to retreat rapidly.

Mo frowned slightly and stood up to take a look. Chiyo's chakra threads had already stretched a hundred meters away. Although she could stretch them even further with her strength, it was clear that the longer they were stretched, the easier they were to cut, especially in the chaos of the battlefield.

"You think you can leave without risking your life?"

Uchiha Mo raised his ninja sword, pushed off the ground with both feet, and quickly chased after Chiyo!

Meanwhile, Orochimaru, watching the retreating Sand Ninja, simultaneously ordered, "Pursue!"

If the Sand Ninja are not forced out of the Land of Fire before retreating, then this battle will be worthless. Orochimaru certainly understands this principle.

In the original timeline, the Battle of Kikyo Mountain produced many war orphans, who were very likely the result of the destruction and looting of villages in the Land of Fire by the Sand Ninja during their retreat.
