Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 293 A Failed Attempt

The Uchiha Fire Formation was still standing, and apart from space-time ninjutsu, it was virtually impossible for anyone to enter the formation silently.

In addition to sensing a familiar soul, Uchiha Gen was able to identify the person as soon as the spatial vortex appeared.

"As expected, it was your Uchiha Flame Formation. What a coincidence, we meet again, Uchiha Gen."

On a protrusion to the side of the mountain path, Obito Uchiha appeared, wearing an orange spiral mask and a black robe with a hood.

Looking at the unharmed Pakura, Obito felt a pang of regret. He had originally intended to take advantage of the situation and kill Pakura to observe Uchiha Gen's reaction...

However, given that Uchiha Gen arrived in time, even if Yekura's position in his heart wasn't as unique as Rin's, it wasn't too low.

How did this guy discover the clues?

Is there an informant in Sunagakure or Kirigakure?

Perhaps we can investigate this afterwards...

Upon seeing the outsider appear, Yekura quickly released Uchiha Gen and stared at Obito warily...

"You're like a persistent ghost."

"Is it a coincidence?"

"I think it's a coincidence, this isn't your old base, is it?" Uchiha Gen said expressionlessly.

"For me, anywhere in the ninja world can be my base," Obito said with a faint smile and a deep voice.

"Alright, I don't want to waste my breath on you."

"If you have something to say, just say it. If you don't, go somewhere cool and stay somewhere else," Uchiha Gen said impatiently, waving his hand.

"I don't want to waste time talking..."

As they spoke, a spatial vortex appeared, and three enormous shuriken shot out along the vortex's rotation trajectory with tremendous force and speed, leaving no time to form hand seals.

After the last incident, although Obito still had the desire to win over Uchiha Gen, it wasn't as strong as before.

Upon seeing that Uchiha Gen had a burden by his side, he tentatively made a move to see if he could capture or kill Uchiha Gen.

Black chakra surged from Uchiha Gen's body, quickly transforming into ribs and two black arms, which nimbly swung left and right.

Clang, clang, clang! The three giant shuriken were smashed away, embedded deeply into the rock wall, and rubble tumbled down with a crash.

"Susanoo..."

Fire Release: A flurry of explosive winds!

A ball of crimson flame spread out along the spatial vortex, attacking quickly and occupying the entire mountain path, leaving ordinary ninjas with no room to dodge.

Uchiha Gen was naturally unafraid to withstand the attack head-on. Black chakra surged out, rapidly shaping bones and a skull, transitioning from the initial stage of Susanoo to the first stage, directly isolating the blazing flames from the outside.

The flames dissipated, and Obito's figure had vanished. Yecang looked back at Uchiha Gen, who was warily surveying his surroundings.

The next moment, Uchiha Gen drew the Musou sword with a backhand motion, its blade crackling with electricity, and plunged it into the ground beneath his feet.

Obito's figure emerged from the ground, grabbing at the two men's legs with both hands. His longsword pierced through their bodies, disappearing into the ground as if piercing through rotten soil.

Realizing his ambush had failed, Obito disappeared back underground.

"Husband, this is..." Ye Cang asked in surprise.

"The enemy knows space-time ninjutsu. With the weapon 'No Life,' protect yourself."

While they were talking, Uchiha Gen didn't stop. He bit his right thumb, formed hand seals, and pressed his palms into the air, causing a mysterious black summoning spell to spread out...

Spiritual communication!

Boom, boom, two plumes of white smoke rose into the air...

A crimson dragon emerged from the white smoke, its majestic and slender body coiling around the black Susanoo. A black cloud, flashing with blazing white lightning, sat atop Susanoo's head like a hat.

Wood Release: The Tree World is Born!

Obito, possessed by White Zetsu, appeared on the mountain path on the other side of Pakura, his hands forming hand seals, his chakra, rich in vitality, rapidly depleting.

Dense tree roots rapidly grew from the ground and the cliffs on both sides, then quickly transformed into thick vines like pythons. For a moment, the entire field of vision was filled with dark blue vines, even more terrifying than the Thousand Serpent Formation.

Faced with an attack of this scale, Yekura was shocked, but because her man was by her side, she was not afraid or desperate. Instead, she did her best to relieve the pressure on her man.

Scorching Release: Ultimate Steam Kill!

Nine orange-red fireballs, each the size of a human head, surrounded Yekura. With a wave of her arms, the nine fireballs flew out in succession...

These fireballs coalesced in mid-air into a giant fireball, three meters in diameter, radiating a brilliant orange light and intense heat. Wherever it passed, the air distorted, and all moisture evaporated instantly.

boom!

The fireball struck the dark blue vines and exploded instantly. A huge fireball shot into the sky, and the scorching and violent shockwave blasted down the cliff walls on both sides, destroying the first layer of vines.

However, a technique of the level of Advent of the Tree World is beyond Pakura's current strength to contend with. It can be said that this technique can instantly kill 99% of the ninjas in this world.

Zhu Rong, who was wrapped around Susanoo, opened his mouth and continuously spewed out golden-white, liquid-like dragon breath. The dragon breath was so hot that even rocks seemed to melt...

Qiangliang was enveloped in blazing white lightning. Countless blazing white lightning bolts burst forth from the black clouds, transforming into a blazing white river of lightning that bombarded downwards from above.

Wusheng wasn't idle either; he summoned lightning in the air to specifically strike the fish that had slipped through the net and the vines with particularly tricky angles.

A major breakthrough in immortal techniques!

As for Uchiha Gen, he turned around and stood beside Yekura, spewing out a terrifying hurricane powerful enough to uproot towering trees, the piercing howl echoing throughout the canyon.

The dragon breath spewed out by Zhurong was amplified, transforming into a terrifying sea of ​​fire that swept in all directions, causing the air to twist and turn, making people feel as if they were standing next to lava.

The vines turned to charcoal under the thunder and to ashes in the sea of ​​fire. The remaining nutrients and the wind amplified the power of the fire, quickly burning all the vines away. The raging flames shot into the sky, illuminating the surroundings.

The flames surged back, forcing Obito to use Kamui to dodge, leaving him quite frustrated.

Uchiha Gen's Mangekyou Sharingan ability is too abnormal; it's almost comparable to his Kamui.

What exactly happened when this guy awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan?

In addition, this guy is definitely capable of sensing ninjutsu, so my several sneak attacks were all in vain.

Well, it's too late. We'll have to go back empty-handed. We'll try again later.

With this thought in mind, Obito, standing at the edge of the sea of ​​fire, activated Kamui, and his body was quickly sucked into the spatial vortex.

Gen Uchiha secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing that Obito had left.

Obito's current strength isn't that great for him, but he's a tough opponent, and if the fight continues, he'll likely be able to defeat Obito.

The reason he didn't take Yekura with him and leave directly using the Flying Thunder God Technique was because he didn't want to reveal that he knew the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Nowadays, not many people know that he can use the Flying Thunder God Technique, except for his close friends and the Konoha F4 in Konoha Village.

At most, he would add his close associates and confidants from the Konoha F4, but these people generally wouldn't have any dealings with Obito unless Obito went to Danzo to cooperate in destroying the Uchiha.

But with him around, is the Uchiha clan so easy to wipe out?

Obito had fought him more than once, so he certainly knew his strength. How could he think that adding Danzo would make a difference?

The White Zetsu of Konoha are regularly investigated and eliminated by Genkai Uchiha, making it difficult for Obito to obtain information about them.

If Obito doesn't get the news, there might be an opportunity to outmaneuver him in the future, which could potentially decide the outcome...

As for the higher-ups in Yunyin, he also released a smokescreen.

During combat, he only teleports between his ability creations and does not teleport to other places.

They were unaware of the methods used to infiltrate Kumogakure, and they also used Qiangliang to leave Kumogakure.

The chances that Kumogakure guessed he knew the Flying Thunder God Technique were not high...

"We should go."

Sensing that the oxygen in the barrier was being rapidly consumed, Yekura spoke up to remind her.

Uchiha Gen nodded slightly, deactivated Susanoo and the Uchiha Flame Formation, and jumped onto Qiang Liang's body with Ye Cang in his arms.

Qiang Liang soared into the sky and quickly disappeared into the clouds, leaving behind only the towering flames and the Mist Ninja who had come to investigate...
