"What's going on? Someone's calling for help."
"Alright, Kakashi, let's have a duel! Let's see who gets to the rescue site first!" Might Guy, in his green jumpsuit, saw the signal and immediately challenged Kakashi to a duel.
Kakashi ignored Might Guy, merely looking at the location of the distress signal with a dead-fish eye. "That place... it's the Uchiha Clan's compound. What happened?"
Just then, a person wearing a beast mask appeared before them. "By Hokage-sama's order, all Ninja are to remain in the Village and await further instructions."
Then, with a Body Flicker Technique, he vanished.
"Clan Head-sama, that is..." In the Hyuga Clan's compound, a person ran towards Hyuga Hiashi.
"Yes, I know. The Hokage has ordered that all Hyuga Clan members are not to leave Konoha..."
"But..."
At this moment, not only the Hyuga, but also other minor clans, such as the Ino–Shika–Chō, had received similar orders. In the Hokage Tower, the Third Hokage was furiously scolding Danzo.
"That Danzo, what has he done? How could he let them still send out distress signals, and now I have to clean up his mess!"
Boom!
Another distress signal appeared in the Uchiha compound. Uchiha Nagi smiled. He had prepared many fireworks in advance, knowing that it was impossible for anyone to come and rescue the Uchiha Clan, but annoying the Third Hokage was also good.
The Will of Fire? Let others see your Third Hokage's hypocritical face.
At the same time, by muddying the waters, he could make his escape easier.
"What's going on? Didn't you say the barrier was already set up? Why are there so many distress signals?" Danzo roared in anger.
"Sir, those are all outside the barrier..."
Danzo: "..."
Danzo almost coughed up blood. The successive loud bangs of the distress signal fireworks meant that basically everyone in Konoha who wasn't blind or deaf had seen them.
Looking at the barrier in front of him, Uchiha Nagi smiled. This was set up by Root. Even when he was still a medical Ninja, he often secretly used genjutsu to hypnotize injured Ninja and extract a lot of Sealing Technique and barrier information from their minds.
Knowing only a portion of the information was enough, because the larger the barrier, the easier it was to find loopholes. For example, Itachi easily entered Konoha with Kisame, as if he were entering his own home.
"Snake – Ram – Monkey – Boar – Horse – Ox – Rabbit – Tiger, Release!" Uchiha Nagi looked at the появившийся gap, a slight smile playing on his lips. Once he was out of the barrier, no one would be able to find him. His escape route had long been prepared.
He had prepared for this day for a long time, even going to great lengths to obtain the "Facial Copying Technique," an extremely cruel Ninjutsu that Orochimaru would later use.
In addition, there was another major weapon: the mechanism Exploding Tag that could destroy half of Konoha, planted by a carpenter... "Hmm?" Suddenly, Uchiha Nagi's heart pounded wildly, feeling something was wrong. He quickly rolled a few times, moving away from his original spot.
Uchiha Obito... "Oh my, you actually dodged it. What a keen intuition. I didn't expect you to still be a Chunin according to the records." Obito said with a strange smile, holding a long scythe.
Uchiha Nagi calmly looked at his opponent. The other party didn't know his information, but he knew the other party's information perfectly. However, he only had one chance... Uchiha Nagi took out a kunai and quickly ran towards Obito. Obito, under his mask, scoffed and activated his phasing mode.
Whoosh—
Uchiha Nagi threw out two kunai, one in front and one behind, while he followed closely behind with a short sword. During this process, he kept his eyes on Obito's body below the neck.
Even if Obito wasn't a genjutsu specialist, Uchiha Nagi's three-tomoe Sharingan might not be able to withstand the Mangekyo's ocular power, so Uchiha Nagi used Might Guy's method of not looking at the opponent's eyes.
Looking at the flying kunai, the first one passed through Obito's mask. For some reason, Obito remembered his battle with the Fourth Hokage, then scoffed at himself. How could there be a second person in this world who understood Flying Thunder God?
Soon, the first one passed through Obito's head, and while the second one was still inside Obito's body, Uchiha Nagi's attack had also arrived.
"Foolish. I can materialize and grab you the instant your kunai leaves my body."
Obito scoffed. Under the dynamic vision of his Mangekyo, every single move Uchiha Nagi made was perfectly clear.
Wait—
What is that?
Obito saw it clearly: a long black wire connected to the kunai.
Clink~
With a crisp clang of metal, the two kunai collided with each other. One changed direction and flew towards Obito's back.
"So that's it. Using my one-eyed blind spot, then using the first kunai as a distraction, he used the Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu, which Itachi is best at."
That's right, the human eye has a blind spot. When looking straight ahead with a single eye, if you move your finger left and right, you will find that at a certain point, you cannot see your finger.
And Obito, besides transplanting a spare three-tomoe Sharingan when he needed Izanagi, had only one eye for all those years at other times.
"However, my will is faster than you imagine."
The kunai that turned back again plunged into Obito's body, without causing any damage from hitting a solid object.
And Uchiha Nagi's action naturally failed, passing directly through Obito's body.
However, the next second—
After passing through Obito's body, Uchiha Nagi found that he couldn't move. Because he was in a forward pouncing jump, at the last moment of passing through Obito, Obito materialized, turned, and grabbed his leg.
Whoosh~
As ripples began to spread in the air, a mysterious vortex appeared in Obito's eye. Uchiha Nagi couldn't even resist, because he didn't know spatial Ninjutsu and couldn't break free.
Just as Uchiha Nagi's body was halfway absorbed, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his lips, and he raised his hand to his temple.
No—
Obito's sixth sense screamed; there was a trap. At this moment, his Mangekyo vision saw something different: sparks.
Under the opponent's clothes, there were sparks—they were Exploding Tags.
Obito had no choice but to immediately interrupt the jutsu. If it was just Exploding Tags, he still had time... "Solar Flare."
A strong white light emanated from Uchiha Nagi. This was also a jutsu he invented; nothing else, just a pure flash of light.
Uchiha Nagi knew better than anyone that the Uchiha Clan's strength lay in their eyes, and their downfall also lay in their eyes. So he developed this Ninjutsu targeting vision. Later, Yakushi Kabuto also developed a similar one.
The reason it was called Solar Flare was to commemorate an anime he liked in his previous life... "Ah~" Obito had never encountered this situation before. His eyes were temporarily blinded, and at that very moment.
Puff! A kunai descended from the sky. A puff of smoke directly transformed into Uchiha Nagi, who swung his short sword at Obito's head.
This was his true body.
It turned out that during his escape, Uchiha Nagi had thought of a scene from Naruto's future: he used the Transformation Jutsu to transform himself into a kunai, and when he threw it at Obito, one of them was himself.
Then, after the two kunai passed through Obito's body, they collided. One was pulled back by Chakra threads to stab Obito's head, and the other was thrown into the sky.
"Ah..." A white hand flew into the sky.
