Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village.

Interesting. No wonder he is the most talented young man in the Uchiha clan right now.

I just wonder if he's awakened those eyes yet...

Beneath the pale mask, Night's eyes were half-closed.

If Shisui had already activated his Kaleidoscope at this point, he probably wouldn't be able to easily face his opponent.

When faced with ordinary illusions, Yoru can dispel them by colliding his chakra and spiritual power.

However, facing the so-called strongest illusion technique, Kotoamatsukami, Yoru really doesn't have any good solutions at the moment.

But if the Kaleidoscope hasn't been activated yet...

Just as Ye looked at Shisui, Shisui across from her also scrutinized Ye with a solemn expression.

"The technique this guy is using is so strange, that special sealing and barrier... is it a secret technique?"

"A completely new secret technique I've never seen before. It seems the Hidden Mist Village has made quite a few preparations for this war!"

Their gazes met in mid-air, as if through masks.

The two pairs of eyes revealed almost the same thoughts.

Leave him behind!

The two moved in unison, their speed exceeding that of ordinary people, leaving behind afterimages in the air.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sounds of ninja swords clashing against asauchi swords were incessant, sparks flying.

But soon, in the midst of the fierce battle, Shisui felt his hands holding the sword go numb and he was starting to lose his grip.

This guy's swordsmanship and close combat skills are ridiculously strong!

After a heavy collision, Shisui was forced to back away. At the same time, he changed his hands from holding the sword with both hands to holding it with one hand, changed his hand seals, and his cheeks bulged high. A fire dragon roared out from the sides of his mouth and rushed towards Ye!

"Fire Release: The Art of Fire Dragon!"

"The fifty-fourth chapter of Breaking the Way: Wasted Flame!"

Chapter 6 Eye-Catching

A disc-shaped flame flew out from Ye's palm and collided violently with the fire dragon, creating a violent explosion.

Yoru instantly closed in. Although Shisui blocked his Asahi's attack with his ninja sword again, Yoru seized the opening created by the block and delivered a knee kick that sent Uchiha Shisui flying.

"Sixty One of the Binding Dao: Six-Stand Light Prison!"

Before Shisui could react, Night's right hand clenched in mid-air, and six beams of light came from all directions, instantly blocking his movements.

"What kind of technique is this?!"

Shisui was shocked and instinctively tried to use the Body Flicker Technique to escape, but the surrounding pillars of light were like shackles, firmly sealing him off.

At the same time, the night didn't give him much of a chance to struggle.

With a burst of speed, Night appeared above Shisui's head in the blink of an eye, her hands aimed directly at Shisui's eyes.

"I want your Sharingan!"

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted from Uchiha Shisui's eye socket.

A sharp pain surged through him, and Uchiha Shisui let out a muffled groan, a sudden sense of despair washing over him.

He shouldn't have provoked this guy; he's simply no match for him!

One Sharingan had already been acquired, but just as Night was about to seize the second one, a sharp shout suddenly rang out.

"Stop! You Mist Ninja!"

"Turong Tulong Spear!"

Earth Release: Rock Pillar Prison!

The earth beneath Ye's feet rumbled and churned. In an instant, a cage made of countless earthen pillars enveloped Shisui's figure, while several extremely sharp rock spears attacked Ye's body.

Instead of using the rock pillar prison originally intended to imprison and bind enemies, he used it as a protective measure, while simultaneously launching an attack on Ye with the Earth Dragon Spear.

In the blink of an eye, the person was able to unleash two A-rank ninjutsu in succession. Clearly, their mastery of Earth Release and their grasp of timing had reached a level of consummate skill!

Night would never make itself a target, but it would never be so foolish as to give up its prey.

"Hado #32: Yellow Flame Flash!"

With a burst of speed, Ye's figure instantly shifted, dodging the incoming Earth Dragon Spear.

At the same time, a faint yellow light flashed in his hand, and a flame shot straight towards Zhishui at an extremely fast speed!

Yellow Flame Flash, one of the few speed-type Kido techniques, is all about sudden bursts of power, especially since Shisui was currently tightly bound by the Stone Pillar.

boom! !

In the blink of an eye, the flames hit Shisui's body, and the scorching heat completely enveloped him.

"Stop the water!"

"Wind Style: Airflow Dance!"

A fierce wind swept through, forcefully dispersing the flames on Shisui's body, but the Uchiha clan's genius youth was already covered in burns and on the verge of death.

[Ding! Successfully completed Rank A objective 'Uchiha Shisui' mission (Part 2): Defeat Uchiha Shisui, reward 5000 points.]

[Target A 'Shinnosuke Sarutobi' detected; side quest triggered:]

[Mission (1): Successfully recruit Sarutobi Shinnosuke, reward 10000 points.]

[Mission (2): Successfully defeat Sarutobi Shinnosuke. Reward: 5000 points.]

"Stop the water!"

"Shinnosuke-sama...we can't let this guy go..."

"Don't worry, don't say anything yet."

After stuffing a soldier's ration into Shisui's mouth, Sarutobi Shinnosuke turned his head and stared intently at the night.

He knew all too well how strong Uchiha Shisui was, yet he couldn't withstand more than a few moves from him.

Moreover, that technique just now...

"A special secret technique of hiding in the mist, is it?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke's expression was unusually serious.

Since the start of the war against Kirigakure, their frontline troops have repeatedly defeated the forces led by Kirigakure's genius, Yagura Karatachi. In addition, with the gradual stabilization of the three battlefields of wind, lightning, and earth, the Konoha ninjas have even developed the illusion that they have already won the war.

Now it seems they underestimated this last hidden mist!

Indeed, it is Kirigakure, which is on par with Konoha. It is not surprising that any kind of monster could be born in such a terrifying and suffocating environment as the Village of Blood Mist.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke's gaze was fixed on the night, and his hands did not stop moving.

In an instant, Ye felt the ground beneath his feet soften, and startled, he immediately tried to move away.

But at that very moment, the sky above suddenly trembled, and a large amount of clay fell from the sky, actually predicting the location where Ye had hidden.

Ye raised an eyebrow and unleashed another burst of speed with his Instant Step.

But before he could land again, the ground in front of him suddenly became as turbulent as a great river!

Clearly, during the brief clash between Yoru and Shisui, Sarutobi Shinnosuke had already noticed the extraordinary intensity of Yoru's taijutsu and swordsmanship. Even Uchiha Shisui, who possessed the Uchiha-style fighting techniques, was completely suppressed by Yoru.

Fortunately, Sarutobi Shinnosuke abandoned his plan for close combat and directly activated his Ninjutsu Cannon mode!

Even with Ye's Instant Step speed being incredibly fast, he still found himself quite troubled by the Earth Release technique, which covered almost the entire map.

However, at least one mission has been completed, and a Sharingan has been gained. Continuing to fight it would undoubtedly be an unwise move.

From time to time, chaotic sounds of battle could be heard from within the village of Futaba, clearly indicating that Yuri and Mangetsu were at work. However, Yoru was well aware that with their strength, they could not possibly cause any significant damage to the Konoha camp.

If this continues, there is a high possibility of casualties.

If the strong members of Konoha come to their senses, then something truly terrible will happen.

Whether Uchiha Shisui has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan or not, I don't know, but the Uchiha in Futaba Village at this moment has definitely awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan!

"almost……"

With a series of quick movements, he dodged the flying rocks and mud, while taking out a signal flare from his pocket and releasing it into the sky, muttering to himself.

"You who reign supreme! Mask of flesh and blood, all things, soaring with wings, bearing the name of man! Twin lotuses are inscribed on the walls of blue fire..."

The deep chanting made Sarutobi Shinnosuke slightly uneasy. Although his Earth Release was fierce, he was completely helpless against Yoru's fully activated Shunpo. He could only increase the release of Earth Release in the hope of restraining Yoru.

"Shinnosuke Sarutobi, son of Hiruzen Sarutobi, see you next time."

"not good!"

A detached voice emanated from beneath the pale mask, and the surging heat and energy fluctuations around him caused Sarutobi Shinnosuke's pupils to shrink abruptly, and he slammed his hands on the ground.

"Broken Dao No. 73: Double Lotus Blue Fire Pendant!"

"Earth Escape: Earth Current City Wall!"

A massive amount of chakra surged into the ground, and a huge, thick earthen wall, resembling a city wall, suddenly rose up in front of him.

But the next moment, an explosion-like sound came from the earthen wall, and the entire city wall seemed to be hit head-on by an extremely terrifying energy, and suddenly shattered.

The fire surged out in ripples, and the scorching heat and thick smoke rose into the sky. The thick city wall was completely destroyed by this burst of energy. Even though Sarutobi Shinnosuke quickly created another layer of earth wall, the situation was just as bad.

The earthen wall in front of him collapsed in pieces, revealing Sarutobi Shinnosuke behind him, panting heavily and severely depleted of chakra.

"This level of skill... just what kind of monster is that guy...?"

"Oh right, Shisui!"

Chapter 7 The Night Squad

The white fog in the air grew thicker, and the humid air felt oppressive and suffocating.

After the battlefield was cleared, the estimated losses filled all the ninjas in the Konoha camp of Futaba Village with anger and fear.

Two large warehouses were destroyed, including a stash of strategic supplies that would have sustained a thousand ninjas on the front lines for three days.

Thirteen Jonin and fifty-eight Chunin were killed in battle. Shisui, who could use the Body Flicker Technique, was seriously injured and lost one of his Sharingan eyes.

Konoha suffered its biggest loss since the start of the Kirigakure battlefield. Most importantly, this loss did not occur on the front lines, but in logistics!

Inside the tent.

All the Konoha Jonin who were in charge of logistics for Futaba Village gathered together. Uchiha Fugaku, who sat at the head of the table, had a very gloomy face as he looked around at everyone.

It's normal to suffer losses in war; there's no war without deaths.

What he couldn't accept was that Uchiha Shisui, a genius boy who was famous throughout the ninja world, was actually killed instantly by the other party and even lost one of his three-tomoe Sharingan!

The leakage of bloodline limit is something that no bloodline clan can tolerate. Some time ago, during the battle at Kannabi Bridge, Kakashi Hatake inherited Obito Uchiha's Sharingan, which already caused a huge controversy within the clan.

Moreover, those were people from the village themselves, but at this moment, Shisui's eyes have been taken by the enemy!

"Based on the intelligence I extracted from the prisoners' heads, the target is the first squad of the Mist Ninja Assassination Squad. Its members include Hozuki Mangetsu, the leader of the first squad; Touna Yukiko, the leader of the second squad; Ringo Ameyuri, the leader of the third squad; and Uzumaki Yumi, the leader of the fourth squad."

"And the person leading the team is the rising star of Kirigakure, the fearsome 'Blood Mist Blade' Mizuki Yoru."

Yamanaka Santen said in a deep voice, "Their mission objective is to destroy the supplies in our Konoha camp. I suspect that they want to cut off our supply lines to relieve the pressure on the front line, just like we cut off the Kannabi Bridge on the Iwa ninja battlefield."

"Mangetsu Hozuki, Yumi Uzumaki?"

"A Moonless Night?!"

Upon hearing these names, everyone present was taken aback, and many frowned.

The Hozuki clan's reputation is beyond question. Among the Hidden Mist Village, they are the most prominent and powerful clan, and their representative figure, the Second Mizukage, is even more renowned!

And Yumi Uzumaki...

During the Second Shinobi World War, Uzushio Village in the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, and the Uzumaki clan was massacred, with very few survivors.

Unexpectedly, there are still surviving members of the Uzumaki clan in Kirigakure.
