Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

Zhili gave a bitter laugh, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

"Since that's the case... even if I can only bring a few of you..."

She slowly closed her eyes, and in her remaining right eye, chakra began to gather frantically, preparing to activate the final version of [Izanami], which she had created, improved, and brought about by her Mangekyou Sharingan.

Just as Chiri was preparing to face his death, footsteps suddenly came from outside the bronze gate.

Immediately afterwards, two figures wearing black trench coats stepped through the bronze gate.

"boom!"

The violent chakra surge instantly blasted away the dozen or so assassins surrounding Chiri, while Moon and Light stood firmly on either side of Uchiha Chiri.

"Who are you? How dare you interfere in the affairs of our Uchiha clan?"

"You can call me Aizen. As for my specific identity, I'd say I'm roughly considered Jiri-sensei's apprentice."

Beneath the mask came the voice that was disguised by Yue.

He pulled his hood down slightly to prevent the other person from recognizing him.

"Chiri's disciple? Aizen? That wandering samurai who dared to interfere in the affairs of our Uchiha clan? We didn't even bother to look for you, but you came straight here to die?"

An elder, enraged, laughed instead.

"Since you want to be buried with this old woman, then so be it! Chop them into mincemeat! Don't give them any chance to resist!"

"kill!"

Dozens of Uchiha clan members who had activated the Three Tomoe technique attacked.

The intense heat of the fire-style technique instantly illuminated the dome of the hall, and dozens of kunai intertwined to form an impenetrable net of death, completely sealing off all escape routes for the two.

Light, who calls himself "Aizen," did not make any defensive stance.

He simply raised his right hand slowly and pulled an ordinary straight knife from under his black robe.

“Teacher Zhili once taught me that the essence of Yin Release is ‘creating form from nothing’,” Yue said softly.

The moon turned the blade's tip upside down, making it perpendicular to the ground.

"Today, I will show you the ultimate form of Yin Escape after stripping away your senses."

The tip of the knife touched the bluestone floor, producing an extremely crisp sound that seemed to strike deep into the soul.

"Shatter, [illusionary beauty]."

"Buzz!"

There was no blinding light, nor any violent flow of chakra.

It was just a pure Yin Release spiritual fluctuation that was impossible to perceive with the Sharingan, like a drop of water falling into a calm lake, instantly spreading from the tip of the knife to the entire underground ancestral hall.

"Die! You arrogant scoundrel!"

The leading Jonin of the security force, his face contorted with rage, swung his katana, imbued with wind-style chakra, fiercely toward Aizen's face!

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted out, and he could clearly feel the blade cutting through warm flesh!

"Hahaha! I killed him! Elder, I killed him with one strike..."

The smug laughter of the Jonin abruptly stopped.

In his perception, the space in front of him rippled slightly, like water.

The black-robed man he had cleaved in two was gone, replaced by his closest adjutant!

Warm blood was spraying wildly onto the adjutant's face from his ripped-open chest!

"What...what's going on?! I clearly attacked the intruder!"

"What are you doing! Are you crazy?!" another assassin next to him shouted in terror.

He was about to stop them when he discovered that the Jonin had been killed by the adjutant who had been resurrected by Izanagi!

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

The fire blast released from behind, though clearly aimed at the gate, mysteriously "turned a corner" the instant it was released, and crashed into the stone statue enshrining the ancestors.

Chaos.

Complete chaos.

The entire hall instantly transformed into an absurd and bloody battlefield.

Within the vision of these Uchiha elites' proud three-tomoe Sharingan, everywhere were phantoms of "Aizen" and that nameless man in black robes.

They roared and attacked the enemy before them frantically, but with each strike of their blades, only their own kind fell!

"Illusion?! What kind of illusion is this! Use your Sharingan to see through it! Quickly, break free!"

An elder stood on a high platform, looking down at the elite troops slaughtering each other, and roared in shock and anger.

"untie!"

Countless Uchiha assassins frantically mobilized their chakra, attempting to disrupt the flow of chakra.

However, it had no effect.

"it's useless."

The ethereal voice of "Aizen" came from all directions at the same time.

"The Sharingan's principle for seeing through genjutsu is to detect and interfere with abnormal chakra flow in the brain. But I do not control your chakra."

The moon, like a leisurely deity, moved among the horde of crazed assassins.

Dozens of ninja swords whizzed past him, but couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.

"I have simply rewritten the 'reality' you perceive through your five senses using the ultimate Yin technique. Your sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch... from the moment you heard the sound of me drawing my sword, they have been completely under my control."

"Playing tricks!! Find them for me!" The Fourth Elder trembled with rage. He stared intently at the ground below, only to be horrified to discover that even he could not distinguish between reality and illusion.

In the shadows of the main hall.

The light, draped in a black robe, was like a heartless ghost assassin, silently reaping the battlefield.

She strictly adhered to Yue's promise not to reveal her unique power.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

One after another, loyal Uchiha clan ninjas lost their lives.

For enemies trapped in the "Mirror Flower Water Moon" illusion, attacks of light are completely invisible.

They couldn't even get into a defensive stance before everything went black and they collapsed limply to the ground.

Even after activating Izanagi, they only regained consciousness briefly. However, given their mastery of Yin Release as Jonin, they quickly fell back into the illusion created by the moon.

In just five minutes.

The Uchiha elites, who were just moments ago shouting battle cries and acting arrogantly, are now lying scattered all over the ground.

The remaining small group knelt on the ground like headless flies, clutching their heads and uttering desperate cries, not daring to swing their knives again.

Step, step, step.

The sound of unhurried footsteps echoed up the stone steps.

Uchiha Yue sheathed his straight sword, stood with his hands behind his back, and walked step by step onto the high platform.

The nameless girl beneath the black robe followed him like a shadow, standing beside him as his most loyal companion.

On the high platform, the First Elder, Second Elder, and other top leaders remained indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about the deaths of these elite three-tomoe Sharingan-wielding soldiers.

until.

"Tap, tap, tap." Footsteps came from afar.

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the Grand Elder and the other high-ranking officials.

"Clap, clap, clap!" Hearing the footsteps, the Grand Elder slowly stood up and clapped his hands from his high position. The applause sounded particularly abrupt and jarring in the blood-soaked hall.

"I admit you are strong. To be able to use Yin Release to such a level that even we find difficult to see through in an instant, 'Aizen,' you are indeed a rare genius." The elder's old face curled into a cold smile. "But if you think that you can challenge the absolute strength of the Uchiha with such a trick, then you are too naive."

The moment the words fell, the pupils of the First Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder, who had not spoken until now, all contracted sharply!

The originally scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan spun and intertwined wildly like a millstone soaked in blood, eventually transforming into three completely different kaleidoscope patterns!

The violent, cold chakra, like a materialized storm, instantly swept across the entire platform.

Under the absolute suppression of this power of the eye, the "mirror image" space created by the moon actually emitted a faint cracking sound due to the unbearable pressure.

Some of the elites with the three-tomoe Sharingan were instantly jolted awake, breaking out in a cold sweat.

But this is not the end.

From the shadows behind the platform, two more stiff, mechanical footsteps echoed once more.

Two Uchiha ninjas, completely shrouded in black night clothes, emerged.

Their faces were expressionless, their eyes as empty as still water, like two soulless puppets.

And in their eye sockets, two pairs of eerie Mangekyou Sharingan were also rotating!

"This is the most perfect masterpiece of the 'Fountain of Return to Light,' an ultimate weapon devoid of emotion and pain, born solely for slaughter," the Second Elder cruelly declared.

"Unfortunately, there were two other tools before, but they are already dead."

A total of five pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan!

Five terrifying, almost tangible, pupils of light coldly locked onto "Aizen," who was dressed as Yue, and the light beside him.

The air seemed to freeze into mercury at that moment, making even breathing incredibly difficult.

"Despair, you arrogant wandering samurai. Before the true power of the Uchiha, your Yin Release is nothing but..." The elder looked down at them with disdain.

Then, the five Susanoo appeared together, blotting out the sky and looking down upon the light and the moon.

Faced with such terrifying combat power, enough to crush any or even several ninja clans in the Warring States period, Yue took a deep breath.

"Light," the moon whispered.

"I'm here." Hikaru gripped the dagger tightly, showing no sign of backing down.

Since ordinary Yin Release techniques cannot withstand the overwhelming force of five pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan, the only option left is to overturn the table.
