Fierce Battle! Godly Thread Manipulation, Dragon Fire Prison!

In the midst of ruins.

The battlefield was split in two. A circular barrier, stretching straight to the sky, had Uchiha Ci tightly trapped within.

"Tch, one actually got away."

Moroi's gaze fell coldly upon Uchiha Ci, a savage cold laugh curling his lips.

"But it doesn't matter, I'll make you die quickly."

Uchiha Ci looked at the ninja opposite him, who wore a red coat, had yellow hair, and a beard, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Because this person had appeared in the original work before.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, This individual had set up thirty-six regenerative barriers on Ryū Island, blocking Naruto and Killer B from reaching the battlefield.

The barrier's defense was terrifying, requiring Naruto and Killer B to join forces to break it.

He was the squad leader of the Kumogakure Barrier Squad at the time, a ninja skilled at powerful fuinjutsu.

However, times had changed. At this moment, the opponent was still just a Special Jonin.

Looking at the opponent, Uchiha Ci felt a little nervous.

Did a ninja specializing in fuinjutsu truly possess offensive power?

But no matter what, the opponent was still a Special Jonin. In terms of taijutsu alone, he was far superior to Uchiha Ci, and Kiyochiro had also said he was skilled at swordsmanship.

He should be able to kill me, right?

"Kid, what's with that look in your eyes?" Moroi indifferently drew the long sword from his back, pointed a finger, and said coldly:

"You're very unlucky. A genin who hasn't even awakened the Sharingan has encountered a master like me at the beginning of his ninja career."

Moroi's tone was calm, as if victory was already in his grasp:

"I only need one strike, and you will surely die!"

[Your enemy, Moroi, is taunting you.]

Hearing this, Uchiha Ci ignored the subtitles floating before his eyes and couldn't help but grin, nodding in strong agreement:

"Not bad, brother from Kumogakure, I like hearing you say that!"

"Don't hold back later. You need to know, even a Lion Goes All Out Against a Rabbit!"

"Use all your best moves at once, leave me no room to counter."

Uchiha Ci suddenly said with a heavy tone, reminding him solemnly:

"Remember—"

"Absolutely, absolutely, do not drag this fight into a war of attrition!"

"Very good! Kid, you've succeeded in angering me!" Moroi couldn't help but twitch his brow, his heart instantly boiling with anger.

Was this kid looking down on him?

Was he saying he had kidney deficiency and couldn't fight a prolonged battle?

However, Moroi didn't take Uchiha Ci's words too seriously. As a barrier ninja, he possessed rudimentary perception ability.

In his vision, he could confirm that

Uchiha Ci only had genin-level chakra fluctuations on his body.

Now, this kid saying such things was likely trying to buy time for his teammate, a mere feint.

At this thought, Moroi curled his lips and glanced at Uchiha Ci with disdain.

The next moment, he twisted his foot, forming the hand seals for the Body Flicker Technique with his arm holding a blade.

With a whoosh, his entire body vanished from his original spot, instantly appearing above Uchiha Ci's forehead.

Then, he handled the sword with both hands, exerting force from shoulder to elbow, swinging the long blade in a wide arc towards Uchiha Ci's neck!

Moroi's gaze fierce, he thought, I'm a Special Jonin, taking down a mere genin like you should be easy.

This strike carried the wind breaking momentum, its blade edge cold gleam, capable of cutting hair with the wind!

The instantaneous death crisis, made Uchiha Ci's scalp numb.

The fine hairs on his neck stood on end.

At this critical juncture—

Uchiha Ci suddenly felt a surge of electric current pass through his limbs and bones, allowing him to overcome his fear and regain control of his body.

He bent down and dodged the blade edge with a sideways head turn. His gaze was like lightning, and his fingers had subconsciously reached for his ninja tool pouch.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three black shadows flew upwards, forcing Moroi to quickly draw his blade to block.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

As Moroi blocked the three kunai, Uchiha Ci had already created distance.

Estimating the distance between them, Uchiha Ci's heart skipped a beat. He felt a sense of foreboding and glared resentfully at Moroi, unable to stop himself from cursing:

"I already told you, whatever moves you have, just throw them all at me at once!"

"You damn bastard, a barrier ninja, what are you doing playing with taijutsu?!"

"Why don't you ever listen to advice!"

Hearing this, Moroi gritted his teeth, a surge of fury rising within him. He strode forward, thrusting his blade towards Uchiha Ci's vital point!

"Playing dumb! Die!"

Seeing the opponent's move, Uchiha Ci's gaze sharpened. He immediately threw eight shuriken, launching them from various angles, tracing arcs that locked onto Moroi.

Moroi was startled and abruptly stopped, letting the eight shuriken whistle past him.

Before he could make another move, his vision suddenly went black.

Uchiha Ci pulled open a scroll with his backhand and threw it.

Dozens, even hundreds, of kunai rained down from the scroll, almost making Moroi curse out loud.

Damn it, are Genin this rich nowadays?

Buying ninja tools by the ton, are you even human?

Under the assault of money, Moroi could only keep blocking the kunai with his blade.

After a while, Dense kunai were embedded all around Moroi.

Moroi panted heavily. They had already used their fastest speed to catch up to this Uchiha squad, and their stamina was significantly depleted.

Now, encountering Uchiha Ci, who was as troublesome as a hedgehog, his Shurikenjutsu was so proficient it didn't seem like a Genin's.

Just as he finally thought he could catch his breath and close the distance to kill the opponent with one strike--

Uchiha Ci flicked his fingers and pulled back with his backhand.

The ends of the kunai scattered on the ground suddenly lit up with thin, bright lights.

As the lights rose, the surrounding ruins' walls, ground, and withered branches suddenly shattered like blocks of tofu.

Dust clouds rose, and Moroi suddenly felt a stinging sensation on his cheek.

Threads with bloodstains followed the dust explosion from the shattering ruins, becoming taut.

Moroi subconsciously touched his cheek.

His open palm continued to drip bright red blood downwards.

He frowned, looking around along the intersection of the threads.

The dense threads had now revealed their presence, intertwining to form a Heavenly Net that enveloped Moroi!

Threads like a forest, twisting wind, breaking faces!

Moroi handled his sword and slashed at them.

However, the sword body was quickly repelled by the threads that intertwined to form a net-like structure.

"What, what the hell is this?!" Moroi was suddenly startled, looking at Uchiha Ci with a face full of horror.

"How is this possible!? So many Ninja Silks, and woven into such a structure!"

"In such a short time, how did this kid do it?"

Uchiha Ci shook his head.

A Special Jonin cutting down a Genin, even with Dragon Riding Face, he could still lose. No wonder people say Kumogakure are savages.

His brain really wasn't enough.

Uchiha Ci's originally expectant gaze had now turned indifferent.

"Pay the Price for your arrogance!"

As the words fell, Uchiha Ci slowly formed four Hand Seals with Both Hands.

Si-Dragon-U-Yin!

Fire Style · Dragon Fire Technique!

He took a sharp breath, looking at Moroi in the net like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Hooking his index finger, dragon fire spewed out!

The surging flames spread along the threads, engulfing Moroi, whose face was filled with horror, within them!

Then, Uchiha Ci, with the craftsman's spirit of finishing the job, formed Hand Seals again with Both Hands, Zǐ-Yín-Xū-Chǒu-Mǎo-Yín!

Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Flower Technique!

This is not the end, After Uchiha Ci formed the Tiger Seal, he flipped his hand and drew out eight shuriken from his ninja tool pouch.

Cooperating with the Phoenix Sage Fire he spat out, he spun and threw the shuriken, integrating them into the fireball.

Wind Assists Fire, the shuriken sliced through the air, emitting a high-pitched phoenix cry.

Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Flower Claw Red!

After this, Uchiha Ci pulled the silk threads once more!

The net-like ninja silk straightened, emitting a creaking sound, and絞殺 (jiāo shā - strangle/strangle) towards the center, Moroi's position!

At this moment--

Dragon Fire Becomes Prison, Phoenix Bird Chirps!

Uchiha Ci looked indifferently at the center of the fireball, faintly sending off his farewell:

"Kana!~(Goodbye)"
