The Great Hero Uchiha

76. Theory is ultimately just a concept. [Please subscribe]

The Mangekyou Sharingan moved rapidly within its eye sockets, recording the movements of everyone in Sunagakure in its brain.

[Sharingan Genjutsu: This Person Is Not That Person]

The puppeteer's companions in his field of vision had completely transformed into Konoha ninjas.

Uchiha Miyuki was his only companion.

Their mission is to hold this place to the death!

That's how ninjas were in this era; they didn't need to know why they were doing it, they just needed to complete the mission.

While casting the illusion, the Futsu-no-Mitama sword also pierced into the puppeteer's puppet on the back.

The blade was stained red with blood when it was drawn, clearly indicating that Uchiha Miyuki's gamble had paid off; the sensory ninja was indeed hiding within the puppet.

Sensory ninjas do help in the battle, but their combat power is too low and they are also an unstable variable. Even if other ninjas break the genjutsu, they can only disrupt the battle at most. But if sensory ninjas break the genjutsu, it will limit many tactical arrangements. Even if they are confident in their genjutsu, they will not leave this unstable variable behind.

He manipulated the Susanoo's arm to throw the puppeteer directly at the Sunagakure troops, while observing the attitude of each Sunagakure village towards this matter.

The puppet manipulates its own puppets to disrupt the battle.

Some were reluctant to harm their companions, and the rest hesitated as well.

For a moment, the puppeteers blocked the main force.

That's how ninjas are; they always have to face extremely difficult choices, struggling painfully between humanity and reason, just like Uchiha Miyuki's earlier choice of whether to abandon his comrades and leave alone.

That's exactly what he's going to take advantage of now.

Ninjas are human beings, not mere tools!

Humans are human!

Nine people hesitated, and four were unable to make a move.

Nine hesitant ninjas became Uchiha Miyuki's primary targets. These people were able to make up their minds at crucial moments, and no matter how painful it was, they would still attack their comrades who were controlled by genjutsu. The remaining four were very likely not to make a move. This back and forth would create chaos within the enemy ranks and reduce the number of enemies to be faced to a minimum.

The ninjas of Sunagakure also reacted to this situation.

An extremely irrational, yet undeniably justifiable, decision.

The two special Jonin stayed behind to entangle the puppeteer who was under the illusion, clearly intending to control him and then find a way to break free of the illusion.

The ninja world is cruel; to survive, one must become cold-blooded and rational enough.

This is a theory known to every ninja.

however--

Theory is ultimately just theory.

Ninjas, no matter when, can never be simply a political tool; they are living, breathing human beings.

Despite having an overwhelming numerical advantage, the Sand Village ninjas hesitated to approach Uchiha Miyuki, even though he had temporarily retracted his Susanoo in its initial form and was only a twelve-year-old boy, while everyone else present was more than ten years older than him.

In every respect, Uchiha Miyuki appears to be at a disadvantage.

however!

They, however, were afraid of Uchiha Miyuki.

Even at this moment, through the figure of Uchiha Miyuki, he thought of one of the two who were once called gods.

Concentrating the mimicry of Susanoo in his eyes was clearly a suspicious move, yet the Sand Village ninjas refrained from observing it, completely unwilling to meet the gaze of the Mangekyou Sharingan. No! Until now, no one had realized that what appeared in Uchiha Miyuki's eyes was not the three-tomoe Sharingan, but the Mangekyou Sharingan!

So it didn't work after all!?

Chunin, no! If this unit didn't know who its enemy was—

Uchiha Miyuki's move will definitely have a miraculous effect.

But this unit came specifically to target him, so how could they not be wary of Sharingan genjutsu!?

Especially with one of his companions having died from genjutsu before, and now another teammate going berserk due to genjutsu in the rear, he will naturally be on guard against Sharingan genjutsu at all times.

The battlefield fell silent for a moment—

next moment.

The battle then resumed.

Ninjutsu, bladed weapons, and puppets bombarded Uchiha Miyuki from a distance.

The mimic Susanoo immediately transformed into its original form, and the transformed arm pushed against the ground. Propelled by the reaction force, Uchiha Miyuki flew out like a cannonball, escaping the range of concentrated fire. This violent method of use during the burst put a greater burden on his body, and Uchiha Miyuki endured the physical discomfort.

Even though I had chosen my direction before dodging, I still crashed into and broke several large trees.

There's no way around it, this is a dense forest—

No matter how carefully you calculate the angle, it's impossible to avoid all the big trees.

It's not that I feel sorry for these big trees being broken; it's that this kind of impact is completely different from being hit head-on by a C-rank ninjutsu.

While still in mid-air, unable to maintain his balance, Uchiha Miyuki still managed to take out some explosive tag kunai. With his taijutsu abilities, even using explosive tag kunai would be difficult to make a difference. However! He could use the power of Susanoo to compensate for his taijutsu problems, and immediately manipulated the Primal Susanoo to throw them out one by one.

The explosive tag kunai traced a very large arc in the air.

It wasn't a mistake made on his first use of the original form; rather, he was replicating the Sand Village's Wind Release ninja tactics—no! To be precise, it was actually—

Uchiha throwing technique!

Although he didn't reach the level of Itachi Uchiha, he still had a certain level of skill.

Several shuriken were thrown out in the predetermined direction, altering the landing point of the explosive tag kunai through collision and disrupting the judgment of the Sunagakure ninja.

【burst!】

Rumbling--

A series of explosions followed.

Without the aid of ninjutsu, Uchiha Miyuki didn't expect the explosive tags and kunai to be enough to kill the enemy. The key to killing the enemy was the dust raised by the explosion smoke and the disruption of the Sand Village's formation to create an opportunity for him to attack.

I mentally simulated the movements of Sunagakure.

Susanoo's arm pushed against the ground again, launching Uchiha Miyuki once more.

Apart from a few ninjas who were closest to the explosive tags and kunai, the rest of them were unharmed. They rushed out of the smoke from the explosion as soon as possible, obviously worried that they would not be able to observe Uchiha Miyuki's second round if they stayed in the smoke. However, they did not find Uchiha Miyuki after they came out!

He immediately began searching around—

This was the opportunity that Uchiha Miyuki created for himself using the explosive tag kunai.

Any ninja who emerges from the smoke and discovers that the enemy has disappeared will immediately search for the enemy's whereabouts.

This alone cannot be considered an opportune moment.

however!

In the previous battle, Uchiha Miyuki used his Mangekyou Sharingan to analyze the opponent's method of avoiding Sharingan genjutsu. It was clear that these Sunagakure ninjas had undergone targeted training based on his height data to avoid making eye contact with the Sharingan, which caused the opponent to deliberately lower his gaze.

With this intelligence in hand, seizing this opportunity will not be difficult.

Once you find the right angle when you appear, you can use the other person's training results to make eye contact.

Sharingan - Genjutsu

By the time the Sunagakure ninja realized something was wrong, it was too late!

"Watch out! A Konoha ninja has used the Transformation Jutsu!"

At Uchiha Miyuki's suggestion, this Sunagakure ninja mistook his companion for a Konoha ninja who had infiltrated the ranks using a transformation technique.

77. Tests of humanity are always contradictory.

the second.

The chaos created by the smoke was limited. After Uchiha Miyuki captured a Sunagakure ninja, the other ninjas became alert.

but--

This did not stump Uchiha Miyuki.

If eye contact is impossible, then use regular ninjutsu.

Compared to Sharingan genjutsu, Sunagakure ninjas are not as vigilant against conventional genjutsu.

[Illusion Technique: The Technique of Seeing Naraku]

Although it's just a D-rank genjutsu with little power, its advantage is that the hand seals are simple, and even someone with Uchiha Miyuki's hand seal speed can complete them instantly.

However, even if one's awareness of prevention is not strong, there are still precautions to take.

Therefore, he incorporated the special hand gesture for triggering the genjutsu into his hand seals, making the opponent mistakenly believe that he was casting a fire-style ninjutsu. Just as the opponent was about to seize the opportunity of his casting the jutsu to counterattack, the special hand gesture for triggering the genjutsu came into view... A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but he immediately returned to normal.

This was ultimately just a D-rank genjutsu, and even if it was only for a moment, the fact that it could affect a special Jonin was enough to demonstrate how skilled Uchiha Miyuki was in genjutsu.

A moment is far too short—

However, it was enough for Uchiha Miyuki to adjust his course.

I made eye contact with the other person!

The Sand Village ninja realized something was wrong as soon as they broke free from the genjutsu, but those scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan eyes were already in sight.

Unless you don't use your eyes to observe the enemy during battle, no matter how vigilant you are, Uchiha Miyuki will always find an opportunity to take advantage.

If it weren't for the mental energy squeezing out his physical potential, there would be no need for Susanoo at all. Uchiha Miyuki could have completed this tactic with taijutsu alone, and even had the energy to learn advanced genjutsu. In that case, the battle would have been much simpler than it is now, instead of concentrating all his strength on the Mangekyou Sharingan.

However, everything has its advantages and disadvantages.

Without such immense mental strength, one could not possess such terrifying Sharingan genjutsu, and would also forget everything from their past life.

The third one!

Meanwhile, the Konoha ninjas also noticed the change in the situation and returned to the battlefield, further dividing the number of Sunagakure's special Jonin!

There were originally fourteen Sunagakure ninjas.

Currently, five of the Konoha comrades have been held back, three are under the control of genjutsu, and the remaining six ninjas are being held back by these three genjutsu-controlled comrades. Among the remaining six are the four who are unwilling to attack their comrades! Out of consideration for their comrades, they are holding back and only using less than 50% of their strength.

"Don't hesitate! They've already fallen under the illusion spell—"

"I know, but I really can't do it! They're our fellow villagers. If I kill them, how can I face their families..."
