Miscalculation

Over here, Shisui, Asuma, and the enemy's battle was also continuing.

Asuma faced two Chunin alone, and by using the Shadow Clone Technique, he could barely hold them off, even gaining the upper hand.

As the son of the Third Hokage, his talent was quite strong, and his application of various ninjutsu was extremely skilled.

Moreover, he was a calculating type of ninja, taking surrounding factors into account and even secretly setting traps. Just as Yei looked over, he had already used a laid Exploding Tag trap to kill one of them!

"Damn it!" The remaining one, seeing this, quickly retreated, not daring to fight any longer!

On the other side, Shisui had it even easier. Even without activating his Mangekyo, his strength was firmly at the Jonin level, and he even had experience killing Jonin.

That enemy Chunin, before Shisui, had no ability to resist at all. Shisui used the Body Flicker Technique to close in, and before the man could react, a single blade ended his life!

"Sharingan? An Uchiha Clan Jonin? And that Body Flicker Technique that leaves people unable to react—you're Body Flicker Shisui?" The other Jonin, Hideki Yuda, upon seeing Shisui effortlessly kill one man and the blood-red eyes behind his mask, seemed to realize something, and his expression changed drastically!

This Body Flicker Technique that left people unable to react, and those Sharingan that instilled fear at a single glance—he guessed the other's identity!

The Uchiha Clan's Body Flicker Shisui!

"Damn it!" Hideki Yuda cursed under his breath, not daring to clash head-on with Shisui. He hurriedly used the Body Flicker Technique to retreat, not approaching any further...

During the Third Great Ninja War, the people they encountered most from the Mist were the Uchiha Clan!

And among the Uchiha Clan, the name Body Flicker Shisui had left a huge psychological shadow on the Mist!

Body Flicker Shisui, in a certain battle, had single-handedly killed several of their Jonin and over a hundred ninja!

He had seen it with his own eyes. That extreme fear, even now when he thought about it, still made his hair stand on end, and he dared not face Shisui!

Over on Kakashi's side, the battle with Biwa Juzo was still ongoing.

The two exchanged blows, their figures flashing as their weapons clashed!

Both were close-combat experts, and their skill was evenly matched.

However, Kakashi was still young, his physical condition not yet at its peak, and even hindered by one Sharingan, he fell into a disadvantage in his fight with Biwa Juzo.

"As expected of Konoha's genius. At such a young age, you have such formidable combat power!" Biwa Juzo dodged a sword strike from Kakashi, retreated a few steps, thrust his Decapitating Greatsword into the ground, a cold smirk on his face as his hands quickly formed seals.

On this side, Kakashi's Sharingan locked onto Biwa Juzo, reading his movements, and he also formed seals, copying Biwa Juzo's ninjutsu.

Almost simultaneously, the two shouted: "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Two water dragons appeared behind them and charged at each other, colliding in midair, sending water splashing everywhere like a torrential downpour.

"The copying ability of the Sharingan?" Biwa Juzo didn't attack again, instead glancing in other directions. Seeing that his subordinates had actually been routed by Konoha's Anbu, he cursed under his breath: "Useless!"

"Captain, among those on the other side, one is the Uchiha Clan's Body Flicker Shisui!" Hideki quickly retreated to Biwa Juzo's side, speaking urgently.

"Body Flicker Shisui? That Shisui Uchiha rumored to have killed over a hundred Mist ninja during the Third War? But didn't that guy Yagura Karatachi say it was false information?" Biwa Juzo looked toward Shisui's direction, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He had also heard the rumors circulating in the village—that Body Flicker Shisui had single-handedly killed over a hundred of their Mist ninja, including several Jonin.

At the time, this incident had caused a huge uproar in the Mist.

But the current Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, had already said it was just a rumor!

That they had been ambushed by Konoha, which was why their losses were so heavy!

Hearing this, Hideki quickly shook his head, a lingering fear on his face: "No, it's true! I was watching from a distance at the time and saw him unleash a powerful jutsu, like a green skeleton. With a single gesture, he killed all the Mist ninja! The Fourth Mizukage said that to avoid affecting morale!"

This Hideki had once encountered Shisui Uchiha on the battlefield, along with Ao, who had a Byakugan. Their team, because Ao was there, had detected the anomaly immediately.

But even so, Shisui sensed them, and with just a look, scared them into not daring to approach...

Afterward, they reported this information to the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, who had just taken office not long ago, but Yagura suppressed the news.

The reason, of course, was to avoid affecting the morale of the Mist ninja!

"A green skeleton... Could it be..." Biwa Juzo's eyes narrowed, as if he had thought of something, and his heart tightened slightly.

As one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, he had heard more or less about some of the hidden secrets of the ninja world.

As far as he knew, the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan seemed to have another state, a dojutsu called the Mangekyo Sharingan!

The former Konoha's Asura, Madara Uchiha, was a possessor of the Mangekyo Sharingan!

'Could that green skeleton be the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan?' Biwa Juzo speculated in his heart, his gaze toward Shisui now tinged with caution!

Then, hearing Hideki's subsequent words and thinking of Yagura Karatachi, Biwa Juzo also snorted coldly: "Hmph, that guy Yagura Karatachi, actually hiding such an important matter..."

Clearly, he had some issues with Yagura Karatachi!

This was also his reason for defecting from the Mist—that bastard Yagura Karatachi, using his mission failure as an excuse, actually wanted to revoke his ninja status and take back his Decapitating Greatsword!

But this wasn't the time to think about that. Biwa Juzo swept his gaze over Yei and the other three gathered together, his eyes cold, and cursed under his breath: "I thought they were some weaklings, but among these four Anbu, there are actually experts from the Uchiha and Hyuga clans. What a miscalculation!"

He had originally thought Konoha's Anbu only had four members, and from Kota's perception, their chakra fluctuations weren't too strong. He never expected them to be from Konoha's two great clans, the Uchiha and the Hyuga.

On their side, two Jonin—one had died at the hands of the Hyuga clan, and the other had been scared off by Shisui Uchiha.

The other Anbu, though not at the Jonin level, was still no pushover!

He had thought Konoha had only sent a few Anbu to scout, but he hadn't expected their strength to be considerable, including one Shisui Uchiha, who was suspected of possessing a powerful jutsu.

Now, with three of their men dead, their numbers were even fewer than the enemy's...

This situation was something he hadn't anticipated...

A wise man knows when to retreat. Seeing that his side had fallen into a disadvantage, Biwa Juzo was also thinking about leaving this place...
