Facing Targeted Tactics

"Enemy attack!"

A loud sound resounded between heaven and earth, and instantly the sky was filled with Shuriken and Kunai, and Explosive Tag trailing Kakkō flew into the respective camps of both sides.

Rumble~

Before the person even arrived, the hidden weapons carrying Explosive Tag had already been deployed.

Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique

Elite Mist Ninja appeared one by one, and after they had already formed hand seals, a torrent of water suddenly gushed forth. At the same time, five Mist Ninja who were hidden in the shadows quickly Hand Seals, clapped their hands together, and shouted in unison.

Earth Release: Earth Style: Earth Core

Instantly, the ground directly in front of them rumbled and groaned, and huge craters appeared in the ground. This Ninjutsu caused a large section of the ground to collapse within a certain range.

Faced with the Mist Ninja's Water Release clearing the way, the Konoha Ninja ninjas seemed to be prepared, with those proficient in Earth Release Hand Seals and striking the ground.

Earth Release · Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall

Thick, massive city walls appeared one after another, and in an instant, the battlefield was filled with the visual impact of towering waves crashing against the dam walls. As the force of the impact dissipated, Earth Release earth-style ninjas of the Mist Ninja altered the terrain, creating huge craters that became massive reservoirs.

Under the influence of gravity, people move uphill and water flows downhill. In the instant the water flow of the great waterfall loses its momentum, the torrent of water begins to flow back, and several huge deep pits on the ground are instantly filled.

Several enormous lakes appeared directly on the battlefield, demonstrating the terrifying power of Ninjutsu.

A single ninja may not be able to alter the terrain, but when they work together, they can easily change it and create a terrain that is advantageous to their side.

As the terrain was created, the Mist Ninja roared bloodthirstyly and charged out, the surrounding lakes providing Mist Ninja with tremendous assistance.

"All Konoha Ninja, prepare for battle!"

The Konoha ninjas roared in unison, and Uchiha Yoru, standing at the forefront, saw the Kirigakure Mist Ninja forward, his eyes gradually revealed the Three Tomoe Sharingan.

As the cold wind blew, a black Ration Pill, a secret recipe from the Noble Houses Uchiha clan, was slowly placed into his mouth, followed by a swallowing sound.

Ration Pill have the function of restoring Chakra and increasing the maximum Chakra limit. (Kishimoto abandoned 'Ration Pill' in the later stages of Hokage because this setting had some bugs.)

Ordinary Ration Pill have significant side effects and limited efficacy, making the secret-recipe Ration Pill much more precious.

Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei

Uchiha Yoru cut his finger, quickly Hand Seals, and slammed his hand on the ground, instantly sending up a huge plume of smoke.

Summoning Jutsu!

Roar~

A furious roar echoed across the battlefield. As the smoke from the Summoning Beast dissipated, Manda's ferocious face was revealed. "You brat."

Before Manda could finish speaking, Uchiha Yoru pointed directly at the distant reservoir and shouted, "Manda, the Mist Ninja in front are all your sacrifices. First, dive underground and puncture the Mist Ninja's reservoir!"

Seeing Uchiha Yoru jump away after issuing the order, Manda glared at him, but it held back, as the terms they had agreed on were too tempting.

"Kid, next time I hope to hear good news, instead of every time I come out to fight for you."

Uchiha Yoru showed no mercy to the Manda, coldly snorting, "If you're unwilling to part ways, well, your talent is what it is, and your life is practically over. If you still want to become stronger, help me. I won't forget my promise."

"Hmph, you wretched brat, roar!" Manda roared and then punched a hole in the ground and disappeared from the battlefield. Some of the Mist Ninja immediately guessed what the giant snake was going to do and shouted loudly. Similarly, the Konoha ninjas also shouted excitedly when they saw Manda.

"It's Manda."

"Lord Yoru's Summoning Beast, kill it!"

"Kill!"

Previously, when they saw Manda, they would have been overjoyed and shouted that it was Lord Orochimaru's Summoning Beast. But now it has been Lord Yoru. It is clear that the boy in front of them is gradually replacing Orochimaru's position.

Kill!

The Konoha Ninja and the Mist Ninja were instantly locked in battle, with ninja fighting and killing each other everywhere—in the forests, on the ground, and even on the lakes.

Both sides have intelligence on some powerful ninjas, so at the moment the battle begins, each side has corresponding ninjas who devise corresponding tactics to surround and kill the enemy.

It's clear that Uchiha Yoru 'Konoha current supreme commander is being targeted.

Three ninjas surrounded him in a triangular formation. One of them was an old acquaintance, Kisame Hoshigaki. The other had one eye covered, and Uchiha Yoru sneered the moment he saw him.

"So it's the Mist Ninja Ao from the Golden Letter Bounty List poster."

During the Third Shinobi World War, Ao obtained Konoha Byakugan from the Hyuga Clan Konoha, which he regarded as a precious trophy. Soon after, Ao was listed on Konohagakure's Golden Letter Bounty List.

"I don't deserve the praise of being a genius from Konoha."

Another Mist Ninja wore a mask, completely concealing his identity from head to toe, but at that moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at the battlefield and suddenly smiled.

"So that's how it is. They abandoned their most proficient large-scale Water Release attacks and instead chose to attack from all directions in close combat. Not bad tactics, an improvement over last time. It seems the fat pig hiding in the back isn't so stupid after all."

As he finished speaking, Uchiha Yoru suddenly spewed out intense flames from his mouth.

Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu

C-Rank Ninjutsu, he spat out a series of massive fireballs that hurtled towards the Mist Ninja. At the same time, the Cursed Seal on his neck began to heat up and slowly spread across his entire body. This time, the Mist Ninja had all the information about his battle plan, unlike last time when they could catch him off guard.

Faced with a barrage of fireballs as tall as a person, Kisame Hoshigaki, whose chest was still clearly wrapped in bandages, quickly Hand Seals.

Water Release · Water Style: Water Prison Wall

At the same time, Ao and another Mist Ninja attacked from both sides.

This battle was entirely designed to restrain his overwhelming Ninjutsu attacks, and the chaotic battlefield almost completely eliminated his sweeping Ninjutsu.

Unleashing a burst of lightning from his body, Uchiha Yoru transformed into a bolt of lightning and charged forward. In the instant of their collision, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and Ao and the other Mist Ninja's pupils were filled with shock.

Wow, so fast! The speed is incredible, and the speed at which you draw your sword is even faster!

With a snap, a corner of the mask was removed, revealing a strand of brown hair, as the cold counterattack from the two combined arrived.

Ding ding~

Faced with Uchiha Yoru's attack, Ao and the other Mist Ninja were even more shocked. The two of them, working together, were actually suppressed. Although they were not good at Taijutsu, they had to remember how young their opponent was, and they were working together.

Water Release · Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave

Suddenly, a huge splash of water hit him, Uchiha Yoru was immediately alarmed, but this time the Water Release was so fast that he had no chance to react.

Rumble~

The surging waves instantly formed a huge ellipsoidal water prison, imprisoning Uchiha Yoru inside. At this moment, Kisame Hoshigaki had just released this Ninjutsu, was panting heavily. It was obvious that he had not yet reached his peak, especially since he was still injured. This Ninjutsu had taken a toll on him.

"Haha, this tactic was specially designed for you."

Although he was panting and somewhat disheveled, Kisame Hoshigaki was all smiles. Although this Ninjutsu was only A-rank, the amount of Chakra consumed depended entirely on the caster's control. This time, he released a super-sized water sphere, comparable to a forest.

In the original story, Kisame Hoshigaki once released this giant water sphere to trap Killer B, the Eight-Tails.

Glug glug~

Suddenly plunged into the water, Uchiha Yoru held his breath, his Three Tomoe calmly surveying his surroundings. He had to admit that he was indeed in a very passive position after his information was leaked.

"In water, your Fire Style will be completely ineffective, and as for Lightning Release! Heh heh." Kisame Hoshigaki smiled, inwardly sneering. This water prison is as large as a forest; how far can your Lightning Release Ninjutsu cover?

With a smile on his face Kisame Hoshigaki seemed to have entered paradise in the water. No matter how the opponent moved, the huge water prison would move around him, trapping him to death!

"Plan complete." Ao and the Mist Ninja, who were also trapped in the water, quickly swam to either side, after all, the opponent's Lightning Release was extremely terrifying.

"Don't they care about the lives of their comrades? As expected, the cold-blooded Mist Ninja are very difficult to deal with using this tactic of decoys."

Trapped in the water prison, Uchiha Yoru pondered silently. The three Mist Ninja made him feel restrained, not because of the difference in strength, but because of the lack of information. From the very beginning, the other party had devised a tactic to deal with him, just like the Akatsuki Organization's immortal duo.

Hidan and Kakuzu were defeated because of a leak of intelligence, which allowed the enemy to devise targeted tactics.

As expected, no one should be underestimated. From the beginning until now, he hasn't even used many Ninjutsu, and he's already been outmaneuvered. Thinking of this Uchiha Yoru's expression became even more solemn.

In Lightning Release mode, he was fast, but in the water, he couldn't keep Mist Ninja. Even so, he still moved quickly to one side, while Kisame Hoshigaki, standing in the center of the water prison, revealed a bloodthirsty smile. In the water, he was no less fast than anyone else, even without Samehada.

On the battlefield.

The sudden appearance of this scene filled the Konoha side with worry, while the Mist Ninja side was filled with soaring morale, each of them shouting excitedly and bloodthirstyly. When Suikazan Fuguki was hiding in the back, saw this scene, he revealed a sinister smile.

"Kid, this is to repay you for the tactic I specially devised for you last time. I hope you like it."

Trapped and realizing his predicament, Uchiha Yoru showed no panic. Instead, he calmly moved quickly while observing his surroundings. Seeing Kisame Hoshigaki's determined expression, a cold smile slowly crept onto his lips.

Every Ninjutsu has a weakness, so let me tell you about the flaws in this Ninjutsu.

Genjutsu!

Suddenly, Uchiha Yoru turned around, and with his Three Tomoe Sharingan spinning, Kisame Hoshigaki, standing in the center of the water prison, revealed a mocking smile in the face of the Sharingan's direct gaze. Genjutsu was indeed his weakness, but only on his own.

Genjutsu Dispel

The figure behind Kisame was none other than Ao, whose seal had been broken and whose eyes were closed. With the help of Byakugan Ao, the two were virtually immune to Genjutsu below S-rank.

Some say that the Byakugan counters Genjutsu, but in reality, any Kekkei Genkai will amplify the user's own abilities, and the Byakugan does not have the ability to counter Genjutsu (official).

However, the Byakugan has a very strong feature: it can see through Chakra. At such close range, even with his eyes closed, the Byakugan Ao could clearly see the flow of Chakra within Kisame Hoshigaki's body.

When the Genjutsu is released, Kisame Hoshigaki's Chakra will definitely be abnormal, and he will be able to detect it instantly. He can then use his own Chakra to directly disrupt the Genjutsu and free Kisame Hoshigaki from Genjutsu.

The only sound in the silence was the gurgling of water. Seeing that his Genjutsu had failed, Uchiha Yoru slowly curled up a smile. It seemed that he had even thought of the Sharingan's Genjutsu. That was quite good. The opponent's Water Release could follow the caster's movement. It could be said that this water prison was a huge mobile fortress. However, it also had more than one drawback.

He instantly pulled out ten Smoke Bomb from his Tool Pouch, and in a flash, thick black smoke appeared in the water with a muffled sound, clearly obscuring his vision.

Kisame Hoshigaki's expression immediately darkened. Had he discovered a weakness? Was he planning to use Shadow Clone Jutsu to break the deadlock? As the caster, how could he not know the flaws of this Ninjutsu?

With Shadow Clone, he couldn't distinguish which was the original. Although he was fast, the opponent's Lightning Release was no pushover.

'No! It's not Shadow Clone!'

As Uchiha Yoru swam rapidly downwards, Kisame Hoshigaki instantly realized his opponent's purpose, and a look of urgency flashed in his eyes.

The water sphere can move, but such a large water prison is incredibly heavy. It needs to be maintained and moved to trap the opponent, but it cannot penetrate the earth. The opponent is trying to break the stalemate using Earth Release.

Water Release: Five Feeding Sharks

The Chakra released from his five fingers instantly transformed into an incredibly ferocious shark, which swam rapidly toward Uchiha Yoru. No one in the water could match the speed of a shark.

Glug glug~

When the sharks were still ten meters from the ground, they attacked. Seeing this, Uchiha Yoru sneered and released a burst of electricity. In an instant, the sharks shattered. Water conducts electricity, and although these sharks were made of Chakra, the electricity disrupted their stable Chakra structure.

Just as Uchiha Yoru touched the bottom of the water, his hands quickly Hand Seals to use Earth Release Ninjutsu to break the Ninjutsu. At this moment, there were many ways to break the Earth Release with Earth Release. He could use Earth Release to leave, or he could use Earth Release to launch an attack from the outside.

However, just as Uchiha Yoru Hand Seals, a cold light flashed, and Kisame Hoshigaki's panic disappeared from the center of the water prison, replaced by a triumphant smile.

It was a ninja longsword that emerged directly from the ground, piercing Uchiha Yoru's foot while the long blade plunged into his abdomen. Crimson blood flowed out, revealing a hideous, enormous head—it was none other than Suikazan Fuguki.

Although the Suikazan Fuguki, with its mouth agape, couldn't make a sound underwater, the shape of its mouth was clearly enough to make it understand what it was saying.

"Kid, I've been waiting for you for ages."

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, turning into a flamboyant blood flower in the water. However, the next moment Uchiha Yoru transformed into a ferocious giant snake, while Suikazan Fuguki revealed his angry little eyes.

The giant snake, in pain, lunged at him. Suikazan Fuguki did not resist, but instead allowed the snake to bite him. Under his resentful gaze, his massive body also turned into a pool of water, a Water Clone.
