Takigakure
"A bunch of useless trash! You let an outsider take the water of heroism, and you couldn't even catch one person!" The Takigakure leader's already flushed face was now distorted with rage.
He stared with wide eyes, veins bulging on his forehead, panting heavily, like an enraged beast.
"You useless good-for-nothings!" the leader roared furiously, his voice deafening, as if he wanted to overturn the entire Takigakure.
As he cursed, he pointed his finger at the Takigakure Ninja standing in a row before him, his finger almost poking their noses.
"What's the point of the Village supporting you?" The leader grew more and more agitated, his chest heaving violently, as if he would explode at any second.
"Leader, that person is from the Uchiha Clan, and he activated his Sharingan!" a Takigakure Ninja whispered.
"What?! Uchiha? Konoha?" The leader's expression turned grim.
At this moment, a Takigakure Ninja rushed in to report, "Leader! The people chasing outside said they sensed a powerful Chakra, in the direction of that thief!"
"Good! Everyone follow me to pursue! Kill him on sight!" The leader waved his hand, leading his people to quickly run in Uchiha Kaede's direction.
"This is...!" Uchiha Kaede was shocked by the surge in his power. He hadn't expected the water of heroism to contain such immense energy.
After using his absorbed ability, even his Sharingan's visual prowess had increased so much. Most importantly, the power he had gained from Shisui could finally be used!
It was Kotoamatsukami, known as the strongest Genjutsu. Kotoamatsukami could invade the brain without the target's awareness, modify their will, and make the target act according to the caster's thoughts. It was an extremely covert and powerful mental manipulation Genjutsu.
It was a pity that he hadn't directly absorbed Shisui's eyes, so he could only use it once for now.
But as long as Kotoamatsukami was used on a key person at the right time, it could instantly reverse the direction of the situation. Very few in the current Ninja World could resist Kotoamatsukami.
"Hmm?" Kaede sensed several Chakra fluctuations outside, waiting silently around him.
Presumably, the Takigakure Ninja had caught up and must have reported to their leader. Uchiha Kaede stood up. Just as Uchiha Kaede stood up, the Takigakure leader arrived with a group of his subordinates.
The leader stared at Uchiha Kaede with cold eyes, gritting his teeth, "Kid, today is your doomsday." Uchiha Kaede, however, remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"I'm sorry, but I had no choice," Uchiha Kaede said to the enraged leader.
"Hmph! The Ninja World is about the strong preying on the weak. Our Takigakure may not be as good as your Konoha, but you took our treasure, and today I'll show you that we're not to be trifled with!" The Takigakure leader's voice was full of murderous intent.
The Takigakure Ninja quickly surrounded Uchiha Kaede, aiming various weapons at him.
The leader was the first to attack, charging towards Kaede with extreme speed.
Kaede dodged to the side, and at the same time, his Sharingan spun rapidly, sending a Genjutsu towards a nearby Takigakure Ninja. That Ninja instantly became dazed, and his comrades were greatly alarmed.
"Don't look him in the eyes!" the leader roared furiously, forming hand signs. A huge wave of water surged out of nowhere, sweeping towards Uchiha Kaede.
At this moment, the Takigakure leader stood proudly in front, exuding a powerful aura that could not be underestimated.
His physique was robust, muscles bulging, and his Takigakure uniform flapped in the wind. His eyes showed sharpness and decisiveness, clearly indicating he was a seasoned warrior.
Uchiha Kaede knew how formidable his opponent was; relying solely on one Ninjutsu would likely not lead to victory.
Uchiha Kaede quickly formed hand signs and softly chanted, "Lightning Release: Lightning Fang!" In an instant, currents surged from his palm, whistling as they shot towards the Takigakure leader.
The lightning flashed with dazzling blue light, and the air it passed through was ionized, making sizzling sounds, as if it would tear apart everything in its path.
Seeing this, the Takigakure leader snorted coldly. Without rushing, he formed hand signs and shouted, "Takigakure Flow: Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!" Immediately, the ground violently shook, and a thick earth wall rose from the ground, like a solid shield in front of him.
The earth wall was tall and thick, and its surface faintly showed flowing water-like patterns, seemingly containing special defensive power.
The Lightning Fang fiercely struck the Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall, instantly erupting in a dazzling light and deafening roar.
The power of the lightning raged on the Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall, blasting cracks on its surface, but the Takigakure leader's defense was indeed formidable; the earth wall, though tottering, did not immediately collapse.
Seeing that the Lightning Release attack failed to break through his defense in one go, a sharp glint flashed in Uchiha Kaede's eyes, and he immediately changed tactics.
He flickered, appearing in another direction as if by Body Flicker Technique. At the same time, he rapidly formed hand signs again and shouted, "Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
Instantly, a surging, powerful flame erupted from his mouth. The flame was like a roaring giant dragon, baring its fangs and claws as it swept towards the Takigakure leader.
The high temperature of the flames warped the surrounding air, and the ground in its path was scorched and cracked, emitting a burnt smell.
Facing the fierce flames, the Takigakure leader dared not be negligent in the slightest.
He hastily dispersed the crumbling Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall, quickly formed hand signs, and muttered, "Takigakure Flow: Water Release: Water Formation Wall!" In an instant, a large amount of water surged from the ground around him, rapidly converging into a huge water curtain that enveloped him entirely.
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation and Water Release: Water Formation Wall collided, instantly producing a large amount of steam, and the entire battlefield was immediately shrouded in a white mist.
Within the mist, the temperature rapidly rose, and the water vapor diffused, blurring visibility.
Uchiha Kaede's lips curved slightly; he was waiting for this moment.
Just as the Takigakure leader was fully focused on dealing with the clash of Fire Release and Water Release, Uchiha Kaede silently activated his Sharingan, and a powerful Genjutsu force instantly unleashed.
Seizing this opportunity, Uchiha Kaede locked onto the Takigakure leader, and a red glint flashed in his eyes.
The Takigakure leader's eyes instantly became vacant, and his previously murderous movements paused slightly.
Uchiha Kaede seized this momentary flaw, his figure darting forward like lightning.
He held a Kunai in his hand, its cold gleam flashing.
He plunged it fiercely into the Takigakure leader's unguarded abdomen. The Kunai easily pierced through his clothing and skin.
The Takigakure leader grunted, his body trembling slightly from the intense pain, but he was still under the control of the Genjutsu and unable to offer effective resistance.
Uchiha Kaede pulled out the Kunai and kicked the Takigakure leader away.
The Takigakure leader staggered back a few steps, finally shaking off the influence of the Genjutsu, but by now he was severely wounded, his face filled with unwillingness and rage.
Uchiha Kaede stood firm, his eyes fixed on his opponent, ready to meet the opponent's final struggle.
The Takigakure leader took a deep breath, attempting to activate a Ninjutsu again, but his severe injuries caused his Chakra to become chaotic, and he ultimately collapsed to the ground.
"Leader!" All the Takigakure Ninja present were shocked and rushed to surround him.
Kaede, taking advantage of this gap, quickly formed hand signs and used the Body Flicker Technique to leave the scene.
