Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 343 Each Displays Their Unique Abilities (4200 words)

"Well done!"

Uchiha Gen smiled faintly, and with a backhand motion, drew the Lifeless Slash from his waist...

In an instant, a blazing white net of fire, combining the power of wind and fire, appeared. It was intensely hot, sharp, swift, and dense. Moreover, two blue-white bolts of lightning, as thick as an infant's arm, fell from the void.

Uchiha Gen's move was enough to instantly kill most of the ninjas in this world; even a Kage-level ninja wouldn't be able to handle it if caught off guard.

Upon seeing such a sharp attack, Tsunade and Jiraiya remained silent, relying on their tacit understanding to deal with the attack on their own.

Tsunade's right fist was wrapped in blue chakra as she gathered all her strength and unleashed a powerful punch.

A terrifying force struck the air, and a violent shockwave swept out, tearing apart the blazing white net of fire with overwhelming force.

Jiraiya raised his hand and flung it into the sky, sending out two kunai with exploding tags attached. They exploded a second before colliding with the lightning, and the lightning was blocked by the flames and shockwaves.

Although Uchiha Gen did not fully activate his lifelessness ability, Jiraiya's reaction and response were undoubtedly appropriate.

The two did not stop their attacks, breaking through the fire net and landing, launching an extremely sharp physical attack. Their attacks were like a storm, with lightning and thunder.

However, although their physical attacks were sharp, especially Tsunade's, they were all rendered into slow motion by the power of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, allowing Uchiha Gen to deal with them with ease.

The three fought from the treetop to the ground and back again, their movements and shifts in form far beyond the comprehension of ordinary ninjas.

Giant trees in the forest collapsed one by one, a strong wind swept through, dust flew everywhere, birds took flight in fright, and wild beasts ran about, instantly creating a lively scene.

After a few minutes of fighting, the two sides separated.

Uchiha Gen was spotless, and Tsunade and Jiraiya were unharmed, though their clothes had some tears.

Tsunade and Jiraiya exchanged a glance and both understood each other's meaning.

This little brat in front of them was not only incredibly strong, fast, and quick-witted, but even more monstrous was the Sharingan's perception; their attacks were completely seen through.

The next moment, Tsunade kicked a tree so thick that it would take three people to hug it to fly away, then bent over and slammed her fist into the ground, creating a crack that spread forward.

As Uchiha Gen flashed, he swung his sword, Musou, and the blazing white fire net reappeared. It not only sliced ​​the flying tree into pieces but also set it ablaze, leaving the cuts glowing red, like burning charcoal.

Before it even hit the ground, Uchiha Gen threw the Musou sword downwards. The Musou sword, crackling with electricity, seemed to pierce through the rotten soil, and the blade instantly disappeared into the earth.

Underground, Jiraiya, who was preparing to launch a sneak attack, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as he looked at the lightning-streaked sword before him...

He was so close, so very close. If it weren't for the instincts he'd developed over years of combat that made him give up the attack, his head would probably have been pierced through the top of his head by that Kusanagi sword.

On the ground, Uchiha Gen stood firmly on one foot on the hilt of his sword, while the blade beneath him released a torrent of blue-white lightning...

The lightning was incredibly fast, instantly catching up with Jiraiya who had only taken a few steps back. The current passed through him, and Jiraiya groaned, gritting his teeth and forcing himself not to scream.

Fortunately, Tsunade descended from the sky at that moment, raised her leg and slashed down. Boom! The ground exploded, and a crack spread forward.

Tsunade deliberately controlled the angle of her attack; if she had spread her power in all directions, Jiraiya underground would have been in trouble.

Unwilling to directly counter Tsunade's punches and kicks, Uchiha Gen dodged to the side and recalled the flying Musei.

Without Tsunade, this move would have been enough to decide the outcome, or even determine life or death.

Jiraiya jumped out from underground and smiled sheepishly at Tsunade, saying, "I was careless. I should have used my Earth Clone to get close and then waited for the right opportunity to strike."

Tsunade glared at Jiraiya but didn't say anything more.

Uchiha Gen said with a half-smile, "Whether it's earth or not, the clone is useless. I will still use the plan against you."

"Seniors, sneak attacks won't work on me. No matter what method you use, you can't escape my senses."

"The only way to defeat me is to defeat me head-on with absolute strength."

"But I don't want to fight you anymore."

"Now I realize that fighting you would only expose more of my information, and there would be no benefit whatsoever. It's completely unnecessary."

Jiraiya and Tsunade's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this.

Having read the information sent by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the two naturally wouldn't say things like "We have to fight even if we don't want to," as they knew that Gen Uchiha had too many ways to escape.

They can't stop them at all; they can't exactly go back to Konoha and block the gate, can they?

Although they were of extraordinary status and position, Uchiha Gen's status and position were no less than theirs.

Tsunade and Jiraiya were both quick-witted and immediately grasped the key point in Uchiha Gen's words.

Tsunade's face hardened, and she said in a deep voice, "We're going to beat you up today, what do you want in return?"

"As long as it's not too outrageous, we can agree."

After a moment's thought, Uchiha Gen smiled and said, "How about this, Tsunade-senpai and I have a date alone afterward?"

Jiraiya's expression changed, and he said with a grim face, "This condition is too much! No way!"

Uchiha Gen ignored Jiraiya and looked at Tsunade, asking, "What does Tsunade-senpai mean?"

Tsunade said expressionlessly, "We're not in a romantic relationship, so what kind of date is this?"

"But it's still okay for me to spend some time alone with you."

Clearly, Tsunade agreed.

Jiraiya turned to Tsunade and said, "No, it's too dangerous for you to be alone with him."

Tsunade rolled her eyes and said, "What's so dangerous?"

"Even if this little bastard is a bastard, I believe he won't force me..."

"If he really disappoints me, humph, unless he kills me on the spot, I will definitely get my revenge."

"If I can't beat him, can't I at least beat his women, those Uchiha clan members?"

Clearly, Tsunade is not a rigid person and doesn't mind being hurt, later picking on the weak and exploiting them...

Uchiha Gen remained expressionless and said, "Don't worry, Jiraiya-senpai. When I say 'any means necessary,' I don't include using force."

"How could I possibly hurt someone as beautiful as Tsunade-senpai..."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade glared fiercely at Uchiha Gen, but she wasn't actually that angry, since he had made a promise and praised her.

Seeing this, Jiraiya couldn't say much, but said with a serious face, "Remember what you said. If you dare to go back on your word, I won't abide by any rules either."

"rest assured."

He never intended to use force, so he naturally didn't take their threats to heart.

"Alright, you two, let's get serious. This is getting a bit boring."

As long as the intelligence isn't exposed to outsiders, he doesn't mind revealing some new information to the enemy, so that they can more directly feel the gap.

Furthermore, he has many tricks up his sleeve and hidden cards; the two of them simply cannot force out his most treasured cards.

Jiraiya and Tsunade exchanged a glance and started to get serious, because they couldn't put pressure on each other if they didn't get serious.

Yin Seal Release Ninja Art: Creation and Regeneration Technique!

Tsunade formed hand seals, and the diamond-shaped mark between her eyebrows spread out like flower petals, with the black curse mark spreading from her brow to her entire body...

Spiritual communication!

Tsunade then bit her finger, pressed her hands together in a hand seal to the ground, and fixed her gaze on Uchiha Gen to avoid seeing the blood. At the same time, she blocked her sense of smell to avoid smelling the blood.

Bang!

A large cloud of white smoke billowed out, and a blue and white striped slug, as big as a small mountain, appeared. When the smoke dissipated, Tsunade was already on top of the slug's head, her hair and robes fluttering in the wind.

Spiritual communication!

Jiraiya bit his finger, formed hand seals, and pressed one palm to the ground.

With a bang, another large cloud of white smoke billowed out, and Jiraiya found himself atop the mountain-like toad's head, his long hair and robes fluttering in the wind.

The giant toad, with a huge pipe in its mouth, bandages around its waist, and a short sword-like greatsword stuck in its body, and its skin all red, was none other than Gamabunta.

In addition, two toads appeared on Jiraiya's shoulders.

On the right is a small green toad with white whiskers and eyebrows, and on the left is a small green toad with purple hair and purple lips.

While the two were fighting, Uchiha Gen was not idle either. He bit his finger, formed hand seals, and pressed his hands down to the ground.

With a bang, another large cloud of white smoke appeared. The smoke was dispersed by the forest wind, revealing a majestic crimson fire dragon over twenty meters long and a seemingly ordinary white cloud.

White Clouds carried Uchiha Gen into the sky, reaching a height slightly above Katsuyu and Gamabunta. Fire dragons coiled around Uchiha Gen's body, and his pair of crimson-gold dragon eyes stared intently at the opposite side...

Seeing this, Tsunade and Jiraiya were slightly taken aback.

Why not use Susanoo?

Is it that they don't want to use it, or are these abilities stronger than Susanoo?

Could it be that they are not worthy to see Susanoo?

Tsunade and Jiraiya had many thoughts at that moment.

"dragon?"

Shima Senjin was slightly taken aback, then said with some excitement, "The child's father, Ryu!"

"I saw it! There really are dragons in this world..."

The immortal Shen Zuo feigned calmness, but a hint of horror appeared in the eyes of the two toads.

"My two immortals, that's not a real dragon, but a creation of their abilities, a special kind of being," Jiraiya explained solemnly.

"So that's how it is. What a disappointment..."

"I thought there really were dragons. Those stinky snakes in Dragon Cave must be incredibly arrogant by now..."

call……

Gamabunta, the toad beneath Jiraiya, exhaled a large puff of smoke, like smoke billowing from a chimney.

Gamabunta rolled his eyes, looked up, greeted the two sages first, and then said in a deep voice, "Hey, Jiraiya, isn't this a bit too much of a show of force?"

"Is that guy the head of your Konoha Uchiha clan, the one preparing to become the Fifth Hokage?"

"You attacked a Hokage candidate? Have you fallen out with Konoha?"

Clearly, Mount Myōboku is quite well-informed. Although it appears to be independent of the ninja world, it actually gathers out all the information it needs to know.

"Lady Tsunade."

The slug spoke too. Unlike Bunta's deep and resonant voice, the slug's voice was delicate and clear, like that of a young girl.

"Bunta, you've misunderstood. We're just having a friendly sparring session between an elder and a junior."

"It's just that the opponent is too strong. Without going all out, they can't put any pressure on Xuan at all."

"And Gen's eyes should have already surpassed the ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan..." Jiraiya quickly explained.

"A slug, just as Jiraiya said," Tsunade said.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade," the slug nodded obediently.

"I see. But Jiraiya, aren't you afraid of killing each other if you get serious?"

"His strength far exceeds your imagination. Instead of worrying about him, you should worry about us..." Jiraiya said with a solemn expression.

"Even for a prospective Hokage, this isn't that exaggerated, is it?"

"You think he's the god of ninjas?" Bunta asked, his face full of disbelief.

"Gamabunta, the opponent is indeed very powerful; his chakra is probably not much less than Hashirama Senju's..."

Even the sage Fukasaku couldn't help but show a solemn expression after careful observation.

"Oh dear, it's a pity Orochimaru-sensei isn't here, otherwise we could have had a class reunion."

"However, your old friends could get together."

Spiritual communication!

As Uchiha Gen spoke, he bit his finger again to form a hand seal, and pressed his right palm into the void, spreading out a black magic pattern.

Boom! Yet another large cloud of white smoke rose up. The forest wind dispersed the smoke, revealing a large snake with deep purple-black stripes.

"Which bastard summoned me?"

How could the prey that was about to be caught suddenly fly away into thin air?

Just as it had successfully caught its prey and was about to eat, the serpent became enraged and spewed a violent gust of wind from its huge mouth.

"Manda, I'm giving you a chance to rephrase your words."

Uchiha Gen floated on white clouds beside Manda's head, his eyes fixed on Manda's vertical pupils, a half-smile on his face, his tone calm and undisturbed.

"Forehead……"

"So it's Lord Xuan! You should have summoned me long ago. I feel restless if I don't serve you for a day."

The massive serpent body trembled slightly, immediately suppressing its ferocity, averting its gaze, and lowering its head meekly, performing a dramatic change of expression.

Tsunade, Jiraiya, Katsuyu, and Gamabunta stared wide-eyed at the sight, then exchanged bewildered glances...

What's going on today? Did the sun rise in the west or something?

Given Manda's foul temper, even Orochimaru wouldn't give him much face, so why would he be so polite?

It seems that Manda is still a little scared. Could it be that he was beaten up badly before?

In fact, Gen Uchiha never really beat Manda severely. He only disciplined the unruly Manda during his spare time while practicing Sage Mode in Ryuchi Cave.

The specific method of training is to use illusion magic to control Manda to do things that he would never normally do, but which would cause his persona, no, his snake persona, to collapse.

If Manda hadn't given in so quickly, he would probably have died in Ryuchi Cave and become a laughingstock.

Who could imagine a scene where a male snake is flirting and courting another male snake?

Not only did it shatter the mentality of the ten thousand snakes, but it also shattered the mentality of the other male snake, who ran out of Ryuchi Cave without daring to linger.

A series of methods were used that did not kill or beat the snakes, but instead attacked their hearts. However, they were still unable to defeat them, and the snakes almost collapsed.

The snakes in Longji Cave can still intimidate the other snakes and prevent them from spreading their shameful secrets.

If he loses face outside, especially if it gets to the ears of that stinky toad, how can he, a dignified snake, continue to live his life?

Therefore, nowadays, Manda is terrified of Uchiha Gen, like a mouse seeing a cat, fearing that Uchiha Gen will mess with him again.

Just as Uchiha Gen was about to speak, Gamabunta held back and spoke first.

"Hahaha...you stinky snake, you've finally met your match?"

"Look at you, you look just like an earthworm..."

Let them mock me if they want; after saying that, Gamabunta even smugly exhaled puffs of smoke...

Manda was furious, his vertical pupils filled with chilling killing intent, but he still forced himself to suppress his anger and looked at Uchiha Gen.

Seeing Uchiha Gen nod slightly, Manda shot out like a taut spring.

"You stinking toad, I'm going to swallow you whole!"

Their voices cracked, which shows how angry Manda was.

With Manda making his move, the battle has begun once again...
