A Father and Son Rushing to Each Other's Aid

"Take care of him!"

When the Iwagakure who had been chasing after them saw that only Uchiha Itachi was blocking their way, they all revealed ferocious smiles.

"Earth Release: Earth Spear!"

Together with the approaching Iwagakure, they unleashed the Earth Spear.

Within a radius of half a kilometer, countless enormous earthen spears instantly sprang up from the ground, attempting to eliminate Uchiha Itachi in one strike.

As countless homemade guns hurtled toward him, Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan instantly transformed into the shape of Shuriken and began to spin wildly.

Even the fastest Body Flicker Technique can't dodge that many!

Boom--

A massive red shield appeared, instantly deflecting all the earthen guns back.

"Wow--"

The Stone Shinobi standing at the front was pierced through the body by the earth spear he had released before he could react, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"How is that possible!"

His gaze fell upon the red monster ahead, which resembled a skeleton and was currently holding up a shield.

All the homemade guns were deflected back by this shield.

Blood trickled from Uchiha Itachi's eye, and the pattern in his eye gradually changed into Tomoe shape. His skull-like Susanoo slowly disappeared.

He really didn't want to use this ability if it weren't for the need to get to his father as soon as possible.

As far as his eyes could see, the Stone Shinobi who had just caught up were all injured by the earthen spears he had fired.

Uchiha Itachi's figure flashed rapidly, reaping the Stone Shinobi still showed signs of life.

Uchiha Itachi only stopped after his Kunai slashed the neck of the last Stone Shinobi ninja.

Snap--

Call out--

The footsteps had Kunai faded when Uchiha Itachi fired his kunai.

Bang!

Hagoromo reached out and swung away the Kunai that was being shot at him, then looked at Uchiha Itachi not far away.

Sensing the lingering Yin Release Chakra around him, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

This guy needs to unleash his ultimate skill to deal with a group of Stone Shinobi?

Do you really think the Mangekyo isn't the Sharingan?

Seeing Hagoromo's figure, Uchiha Itachi was stunned for a moment, then jumped up and came to Hagoromo's side apologetically:

"Lord Hagoromo Yi, I didn't notice it was you just now."

"It's nothing, I just got here as fast as I could, but I didn't expect you to still be the one to solve it."

As she spoke, Hagoromo pointed to the corpses of the more than twenty Stone Shinobi lying on the ground.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Itachi felt a throbbing sensation in his temples.

If he had known that Hagoromo was nearby, he would never have used Susanoo, not even in its initial form.

"By the way, Lady Hagoromo, my father is still fighting against Akatsuchi of Iwagakure."

Thinking of Fugaku, Uchiha Itachi quickly spoke up.

I think it's probably not a big problem.

Hagoromo looked helplessly into the dense forest ahead, sensing a Chakra rapidly approaching.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be Fugaku.

Uchiha Itachi was taken aback by these words, and then turned to look.

Just then, Fugaku's figure leaped out from the dense forest.

Upon seeing the scene before them, they were instantly speechless.

This... doesn't seem like something Fire Style could create.

He was willing to reveal his trump card in order to deal with Akatsuchi as soon as possible and come to help his son.

That's it?

"Alright, the Uchiha Clan's forces should be arriving soon."

Hagoromo clapped her hands, gesturing to the father and son who were both stunned.

"That's good."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, Chief Fugaku and Itachi, would you like me to treat you first?"

Hagoromo looked at the father and son in front of her and asked, since they both appeared to be injured to some extent.

"Then I'll trouble you."

Fugaku nodded without hesitation. He still needed to go to the battlefield, so it was better to recover as soon as possible.

"No problem."

Hagoromo nodded, green Chakra appearing in his hands as he began to heal Uchiha Fugaku.

For outsiders, it's best to use Medical Ninjutsu whenever possible.

As for Yang Release, let's leave it for our own people; at least it doesn't need much explanation.

"Lord Hagoromo Yi, what are you doing here?"

Uchiha Itachi looked at Fugaku being treated by Hagoromo, then turned to Hagoromo and asked.

"My mission was to deal with the Iwagakure Ninja had infiltrated the area, but after several days of running around, I've only managed to take down a few small teams."

"I never expected them to be here."

Hagoromo didn't hide anything and spoke directly.

This wasn't exactly a classified mission.

"Hagoromo, the news that our Uchiha Clan has gone to the battlefield must have been relayed by spies from Iwagakure."

"Uchiha Fugaku is being treated," he said.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Itachi nodded; this was also his guess.

"It seems there are still some rats in the village."

Hearing this, Hagoromo frowned; he was worried about Naruto and the others.

However, the thought that Sansan was still by Naruto's side made him feel a little relieved.

At least, with Sansan's perception, it's still impossible for ordinary people to get close to Naruto.

Moreover, Naruto and Sasuke are quite strong.

Without further thought, Hagoromo withdrew her hand and said to Fugaku, "Clan Chief Fugaku, I've treated all your external injuries."

"The internal injuries still require medication, after all, the shock was caused by the Monster Strength."

"Okay, thank you."

Fugaku nodded, stood up, and said.

"Next, we need to get to the border as soon as possible."

Hearing Fugaku's words, Hagoromo nodded. They had already lingered here for too long, and it was time to hurry back.

Fortunately, the hidden Stone Shinobi should have been dealt with.

"Lord Hagoromo, Father, I must take my leave now."

Uchiha Itachi remained silent for a long time before speaking to Hagoromo and Fugaku.

"What's wrong?"

Fugaku frowned and asked.

"The Hiruzen Master gave me a mission before he set off; I was supposed to leave when I reached the battlefield."

At this point, Uchiha Itachi turned to look at Hagoromo, "Now that I have Lady Hagoromo traveling with me, I can go and carry out my mission with peace of mind."

Hearing Itachi's words, Fugaku fell silent. "Go, be careful."

"Yes, Father!"

After Itachi finished speaking, he nodded to Hagoromo and Fugaku, and then vanished in Body Flicker Technique.

Hagoromo watched Uchiha Itachi's figure gradually disappear into the distance, she couldn't help but speculate.

"Is he... going to find Orochimaru? Or is he going to search for the Akatsuki?"

After all, Kisame had already been placed under a spell before leaving the village, although he was able to extract some information from him.

However, most of what they could find out would only give Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shikaku even more headaches.

"Lord Hagoromo!"

"Master!"

The Yutoshi and Neji appeared in a flash, followed by countless Uchiha clansmen.

"Chief Fugaku, then I'll leave it to you."

Hagoromo turned his head and said, "After all, Itachi's departure will inevitably arouse suspicion, so it would be better for Fugaku to go and appease him first."

"No problem." Fugaku, knowing the gravity of the situation, nodded and strode off.

"Neji, we're about to head to the battlefield. Are you ready?"

Hagoromo looked at Neji and slowly spoke.

"No problem, Master!"

Neji, then nodded firmly.
