Even though it was clear his proficiency wasn't very high yet, its power was no joke.
Seeing this, Uchiha Gen cooperatively coordinated with him, gathering his remaining Chakra.
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
The Wind Release Ninjutsu he knew now wasn't limited to just the Gale Palm.
A whirlwind surged out, meeting the pillar of fire from the opposite direction and accurately hitting the Iwagakure Ninja.
A spiral fire tornado briefly formed in mid-air, signaling the end of another life.
At the same time.
Another figure appeared at Uzuki Ruri's side to assist in the battle.
"Gentle Fist Art: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"
The Byakugan-wielding youth dressed in white struck out with his palms.
His steps were agile and elegant as he hit the bearded Ninja's pressure points.
Uzuki Ruri seized the opportunity created by Hyuga Hizashi.
She pierced the bearded Iwagakure Ninja's heart with her sword, killing him instantly.
"It seems things ended on your side first. As expected of the famous Uchiha and the son of the Third Hokage."
Hyuga Hizashi rolled up his sleeves, looking at Uchiha Gen and Sarutobi Enjun as they walked toward him.
"The Hyuga Clan's Byakugan is indeed extraordinary. However, while the Byakugan is strong, the one who is truly strong is Senior Hizashi."
Uchiha Gen held his blood-stained sword, looking at Hyuga Hizashi with a relaxed expression.
Even Hyuga Hizashi, who was acting as mobile support to fill in the gaps, could spare the time to assist.
This battle could basically be declared over.
Ultimately, this was just a training exercise left by Orochimaru.
It was meant for these recruits, who hadn't yet stepped onto a large-scale battlefield, to gain combat experience.
Some performed excellently, while others were average.
However, with Orochimaru and those Jōnin-level experts watching, no one died.
At this level of combat, they were capable of preventing accidents and avoiding a tragedy like Nawaki's.
The most serious cases were just two inexperienced and careless young Genin who were heavily injured.
Ten-odd minutes later, the hundred-man unit finished clearing the battlefield and regrouped.
They headed toward the next enemy Ninja stronghold disguised as a bandit's den, which the Anbu had scouted.
A few days later.
Thousands of Konoha Ninja practically scoured the Land of Fire for identified enemy Ninja.
Whether they were confirmed enemy strongholds, suspicious bandit dens, Rogue Ninja hideouts, or underground bounty stations, almost all were wiped clean.
Even though organizations like the underground bounty stations surely had powerful backers...
In the face of a determined Konoha, there was nothing within the Land of Fire they couldn't do if they wanted to.
Perhaps in a few years, as the chaos in the Ninja World continued, these things would slowly resurface.
They might return to their current scale eventually.
But for at least a year or two, underground activities within the Land of Fire would be minimized and could no longer cause any negative impact.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Gen finally arrived at the Land of Rain with his team.
"This rain really doesn't stop, does it?"
Sarutobi Enjun pulled his foot out of the muddy road.
He complained as he looked at the continuous downpour.
"The Land of Rain is called the 'Crying Country.' More than two-thirds of the year is the rainy season."
"We'll probably have to get used to days like this for a long time to come."
Uzuki Ruri, carrying a bundle of sealing scrolls on her back, shrugged helplessly.
Uchiha Gen sat on top of a carriage filled with various combat supplies.
He wore a bamboo hat, holding an umbrella in one hand and flipping through a thin booklet with the other.
This was one of Uchiha Kagami's relics, obtained from his older cousin, Uchiha Sumi, a few days ago.
The deep blue booklet contained Uchiha Kagami's personal training experience with the Sharingan and Ninjutsu.
It also contained the secret of the extremely precious Phantom Body Flicker Technique.
In the original timeline, Uchiha Shisui was able to earn the fame of 'Shisui of the Body Flicker' at a young age.
This was thanks to this unique Body Flicker Technique, which combined the Body Flicker, clones, and Sharingan Genjutsu into one.
When using this technique, one needs to integrate the Sharingan's ocular power while performing the Clone Technique.
This gives the clones the Sharingan's Genjutsu effect.
This not only increases deceptive capability but also ensures the clones don't disappear after being attacked.
The user moves at high speed among the clones, making it impossible for enemies to defend against.
If the Sharingan's level is high enough and the ocular power is strong enough, the Genjutsu effect on the clones will be stronger.
For an enemy to see through to the real body, they must first break the Sharingan's Genjutsu.
This places extremely high demands on the enemy's sensory and Genjutsu abilities.
Even the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan cannot see through it.
If Shadow Clones with physical substance and attack capabilities are mixed in, the combat effectiveness will be further improved.
Shadow Clones are dispelled after being attacked, while phantom clones are not.
The enemy can only gamble on which is real and which is fake.
Since this technique is called the Phantom Body Flicker Technique, its core naturally includes a Body Flicker in addition to the phantoms.
"Using the Sharingan's Chakra observation ability, one can adjust the explosive power when using the Body Flicker according to the following points for one's own meridians. Point one..."
"Additionally, Teacher Tobirama also taught me many techniques regarding the Body Flicker Technique."
"The most basic form of the Body Flicker Technique is the common physical Body Flicker."
"In reality, any technique that allows for high-speed explosive displacement in a very short time can be called a Body Flicker."
"For example, Teacher Tobirama's Flying Thunder God Technique can also be categorized as a Body Flicker Technique."
"In the Phantom Body Flicker Technique, the part belonging to the Body Flicker, when listed separately, can be considered a B-Rank Body Flicker Technique."
"When used in conjunction with Genjutsu, it can conceal one's figure while moving, achieving an effect similar to switching positions among clones and teleporting."
"If a successor can learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, they might consider integrating my Phantom Body Flicker Technique into it."
"Using the clones as nodes for the Flying Thunder God formulas, the effect would surely rise to another level..."
Uchiha Gen closed the pages, carefully organizing the content he had gained from the book in his mind.
He didn't know if this first cousin once removed had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan before his death.
But judging from the series of achievements recorded, even without the Mangekyō, he was a top-tier expert close to Kage-level.
He relied on the Phantom Body Flicker Technique, Sharingan, Fire Release, and sword techniques.
As his signature secret technique, the upper limit of the Phantom Body Flicker Technique was very high.
However, the overall difficulty also reached A-Rank.
To fully master it, it also required the Sharingan's ocular power to reach the Three-Tomoe level.
Uchiha Gen didn't have the ability to learn it all right now.
However, even just breaking down the part related to the Body Flicker Technique was enough to make him feel he had benefited greatly.
