Starting with the Uchiha clan, they began cultivating demonic arts.

Chapter 48 Huang Tu is captured

Looking at the yellow earth before him, Uchiha Hiyu, trapped within the barrier, smiled.

"That's absolutely right. On the battlefield, it's best not to waste time talking to the enemy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Hiyu turned into a wisp of white smoke with a bang and disappeared without a trace.

"Damn it, it's a shadow clone! This guy used Earth Movement Technique to escape from the start!"

Huang Tu's expression changed. Seeing that the soil on the ground was slightly damp, he immediately understood that the opponent had already escaped underground when he used Earth Release: Earth Flow to stir up a lot of mud and dust, leaving only a shadow clone there to talk nonsense with him.

The key is that this guy's earth-movement technique is so seamless that none of the Iwa ninjas, who are used to digging holes in the ground every day, could see through it!

Furthermore, the shamelessness of this Uchiha boy also greatly surprised Huang Tu.

Young geniuses of this age are never willing to back down when faced with a strong enemy. They usually only use shadow clones to lure the enemy, while their real bodies take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. They always have to exchange a couple of blows before they feel they are no match for the enemy and think of retreating.

As a result, Uchiha Touya left a shadow clone and then disappeared without a trace without even fighting.

"It's out again! It's out again! That ghost is killing people again!"

"Aaaaaah! I'll fight you to the death! Show yourself if you dare!"

The chaotic sounds coming from outside caused Huang Tu's expression to change once again. Realizing they had been tricked, the ninjas who had created the barrier outside also canceled it, allowing Huang Tu to see the scene of those low-level ninjas falling over.

In that short time, Uchiha Hiyu once again concealed his presence, relying on his high speed to wreak havoc on ordinary Chunin and Genin, taking more than a dozen lives in an instant.

"Damn it, come at me if you dare! What kind of hero kills these low-ranking ninjas!"

Huang Tu's eyes turned red. Don't underestimate Chunin and Genin just because they are considered low-level and are often swept away on the battlefield of the ninja world. But these soldiers are not weeds; they can't just grow back after they die. You can't just cut them down like this!

Without the cover of Chunin and Genin, the battles between Jonin would become unbalanced. And once a Jonin is at a disadvantage, Konoha can unleash its full fighting power, and even a Kage-level ninja would still be defeated.

After all, the current Five Kage are not monsters like Hashirama Senju or Madara Uchiha. A weaker Kage might have to flee in panic if surrounded by seven or eight Jonin.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Tou ignored Huang Tu's words and continued to target the weaker ninjas. With his invisibility and high speed, he was not afraid of the strong ninjas among the Iwa ninjas.

Visual invisibility alone has limited effect on truly powerful ninjas, but when combined with high speed, it becomes very difficult to deal with.

If a ninja combines the advantages of stealth and high speed, and doesn't even engage in combat with Jonin-level ninjas, then these powerful ninjas simply can't keep up with Uchiha Hiu's pace and can only watch helplessly as he commits massacres.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"Let's see who can slaughter the fastest! Earth Release: Steel Legacy Technique!"

Huang Tu, driven by impotent rage, formed hand seals, causing the ground to tremble slightly and a gigantic rock giant to emerge, which then began slaughtering ordinary Konoha ninja.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Touyu didn't care about any of that. The giant rock golem he created from yellow earth was quickly stopped by several Konoha Jonin working together. He wasn't Uchiha Touyu, who could ignore the interception of other powerful figures.

Seeing that Uchiha Tou's slaughter numbers continued to rise, and that with each massacre, more and more Konoha ninja were freed up, gradually accumulating a snowballing advantage, Huang Tu finally couldn't help but shout:

"Retreat! All Iwa ninja, retreat! I'll cover the rear!"

Upon hearing Huang Tu's words, the group of Iwa ninja who had long been unable to hold on felt as if they had been granted a pardon and began to slowly retreat.

Huang Tu also went all out, frantically throwing out all sorts of high-level, wide-range earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or technique), causing the entire battlefield to shake violently and even drastically changing the terrain.

To prevent too many casualties, the high-ranking ninjas of Konoha could only stop Huang Tu and let the Iwagakure ninjas go.

However, the result was that Qiu Dao, along with seven or eight Jonin, more than 20 Special Jonin, and nearly a hundred Chunin, completely surrounded Huang Tu.

On the other side, as the Iwa ninja suffered a crushing defeat, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, who was being ganged up on by Orochimaru and several Jonin, also withdrew his tailed beast body, transformed back into human form, and began to flee.

If he doesn't run now, it will be too late. Once surrounded by the Konoha ninja army, even if he is a Jinchuriki, he will definitely be left behind.

Speaking of ninjas, when it comes to escaping, they are incredibly fast. In just a few minutes, a large group of Iwa ninjas either burrowed into the ground or jumped into trees, disappearing without a trace.

Only Huang Tu, who had just used a lot of ninjutsu and exhausted most of his chakra, was left, panting and giving up the fight.

"Lord Orochimaru, should we cut this guy down?"

Uchiha Hiyu approached Orochimaru, made a gesture as if to strike with a swift, sharp blade, and his eyes were full of eager anticipation.

Orochimaru, who was already exhausted from the battle with the tailed beasts, felt his head throb even more after seeing Uchiha Tou's actions.

"Feiyu-kun, can you not be so extreme? A living son of the Third Tsuchikage, the commander of Iwagakure, is far more valuable than a dead person."

"Alright, alright, we can't kill this one..."

Uchiha Touya muttered helplessly. As the son of the Third Tsuchikage, Huang Tu possessed strength close to that of a Kage, so his soul was of very high value.

Seeing the regretful expression on Uchiha Tou's face, Orochimaru was genuinely afraid that the brat might accidentally cut Huang Tu in half with his sword, so he quickly tried to distract Uchiha Tou.

"You'd better prepare yourself now. I reckon the Sand Village won't let this opportunity pass, and before long, we'll be facing a new war. We'll need your help then!"

The battle between Konoha and Iwa ninja was such a big event that Sunagakure couldn't possibly be unaware of it.

When the two sides went to war, the Sand Village ninja would stay away from the battlefield to avoid turning it into a three-way battle and to prevent both sides from becoming suspicious and causing further complications.

However, after the war ends, the Sand Ninja will definitely take advantage of the chaos, intensifying their attacks and infiltrations, in an attempt to defeat the Konoha Ninja in one fell swoop.

However, after taking a look at the battlefield, Orochimaru was quite satisfied. Although Uchiha Tou's act of specifically targeting the weak was shameless, it was also very effective. Because of his activity, the war ended quickly, and Konoha did not suffer any major damage.
