A Year Passes in the Blink of an Eye

In the forest, the fierce battle raged for over 10 minutes.

"Izumi, you control Maya, I'll take care of them."

As soon as he spoke, Kyosuke charged towards the enemies, short sword in hand.

Ten minutes prior, the squad had successfully intercepted the enemy team.

Lacking long-range destructive power, they had to rely on Uchiha Izumi's Fire Style to initiate, with Kyosuke leading Maya to create close-range damage.

However, this time he had encountered a tough opponent.

The enemy team was perfectly equipped with the Ino-Shika-Cho formation, and their coordination was exceptionally high.

A Chunin from the Akimichi Clan used Expansion Jutsu to forcefully disrupt their charge, while the cunning Yamanaka took the opportunity to seize control of Uchiha Maya's body.

By the time Kyosuke risked using the Body Flicker Technique to forcibly eliminate the enemy before him, Maya, who appeared before him, had already pressed a Kunai to her own throat.

"Surrender now, or this woman dies."

Surrender?

That was no different from killing himself on the spot. Falling into the hands of the three clans, Kyosuke would most likely experience a fate worse than death.

"Maya!" Uchiha Izumi's voice was like a demon from hell, filled with despair and a hatred that sought to devour everything.

Only then did he realize that there was some kind of special emotion between his two subordinates.

"I can surrender," he said. As soon as the words left his mouth, 'Maya' immediately looked at him.

Upon seeing those bewitching Sharingan eyes, 'she' felt a jolt in her heart, inwardly crying out that things were not good.

As a special existence formed by the fusion of two souls, Kyosuke's spiritual foundation was incredibly strong.

Without needing to be taught, he had grasped the most basic, yet powerful, pupil-based Genjutsu of the Sharingan.

Genjutsu: Sharingan!

His will sank into Maya's body, and the blood-red eyes instantly enveloped the enemy's spiritual body.

As his pupil power erupted, the opponent was instantly expelled from the subordinate's body, leading to the scene at the beginning.

Drawing his gleaming short sword, Kyosuke charged towards the Yamanaka Clan ninja like the wind.

He knew that the Nara, who was responsible for coordinating the overall strategy, would undoubtedly try to rescue them at all costs.

As expected, just a few steps after Kyosuke charged forward, a black shadow quickly shot up from the ground.

Putting aside other matters, the friendship between the three clans was truly touching. Therefore, he decided that today, no matter what, he would send them all to the Pure Land together.

He quickly formed simple Hand Seals, and in the Nara's rapidly widening pupils, he transformed into an afterimage and charged forward madly.

The short sword flashed across the sky, blood splattered, and a fine head instantly flew upwards.

[System Notification: Defeated Nara Clan Chunin, earned 310 points.]

"Damn it." As soon as he stopped, Kyosuke's muscles began to spasm uncontrollably.

Lying on the ground, he could only watch as Uchiha Izumi ran to claim his kill.

"You bastard, I'm not done with you." Twitching the corners of his mouth, Kyosuke tilted his head and fainted.

In such a short period, performing high-difficulty Body Flicker Technique twice in a row meant he was completely fighting by overdrafting his future.

Fortunately, the total of 590 points finally compensated for Kyosuke's injured body and spirit.

"Oh no, Master has fainted." Maya, struggling to get up, stumbled to his side and began to administer aid from her Ninja tool pouch, taking out medical supplies.

Behind them, Uchiha Izumi kept her head down, as if she hadn't yet emerged from the despair of moments ago.

Drip, drip! Tears fell one by one, and Maya choked out, "He didn't give up on me. Madara-sama was right, Kyosuke is someone worth following."

There was one thing she didn't say. As a Medical Ninja, Maya knew very well the consequences of forcefully using the Body Flicker Technique.

Kyosuke was only 8 years old, and he was completely fighting by overdrafting his body. For a moment, her heart was filled with gratitude and guilt.

At this moment, these two subordinates, who had transferred from Uchiha Madara, truly belonged to Kyosuke, body and soul.

Chattering away for a long time, Maya suddenly realized why her boyfriend wasn't responding to her.

Curiously turning her head, she immediately noticed those blood-red eyes.

Within them, three dark tomoe were slowly rotating.

It took Kyosuke a full day and night to wake up from his unconsciousness.

"A strange ceiling~"

He didn't need to look to know that his entire body must be wrapped in bandages.

Overdrafting one's body was considered a foolish act by outsiders, but Kyosuke himself didn't particularly care.

In the System Shop, there were potions that could perfectly repair the body.

It only cost 5000 points to slowly heal all the injuries and hidden ailments he had suffered.

Higher-level potions could even restore him to his original state in a very short time, but the price...

Sigh, let's not even bring it up.

His desperate actions would surely move his two subordinates with extraordinary potential.

Kyosuke felt something was off about using them if he couldn't get them to fully commit.

He turned his head with difficulty. Uchiha Maya was fast asleep, face down on the pillow.

In the past, she would never have dared to be so unrestrained in front of Kyosuke. The deep meaning behind it made the corners of his lips curl up unconsciously.

Success!

"Sigh, always pushing himself so hard, it's easy to run into trouble." During his recovery, Kyosuke considered this for the first time.

As things stood, his safety was temporarily guaranteed.

His two subordinates were completely loyal, especially Uchiha Izumi, who had successfully awakened her Three Tomoe Sharingan after the last incident.

In terms of combat power, he, when going all out, now possessed the ability to go toe-to-toe with a Jonin.

The safety factor for future missions would definitely increase significantly. The problem was that this guy would probably snatch his kills even more easily now.

"No, I have to limit his actions. I'll use the excuse that I need practical combat experience."

A week later, Kyosuke was successfully discharged from the hospital.

Given the efficiency of acquiring points, he decided to temporarily slow down and focus on strengthening his own abilities first.

The learning objective was not Ninjutsu, but rather to ask Uchiha Maya for guidance on Genjutsu.

This was to compensate for his lack of mid-range techniques.

He couldn't possibly risk serious injury to forcibly use the Body Flicker Technique every time an unexpected accident occurred.

Considering the time spent recovering from his injuries, doing so would greatly impact his efficiency in acquiring points.

After a period of systematic study, Kyosuke had finally mastered a few basic Genjutsu.

The team set out again, constantly hunting down ninja from the three clans.

Over time, he gradually regained the reputation of the "Vile Rakshasa."

To minimize the impact of his age, Kyosuke habitually wore that demon mask even when returning to the camp.

There were, of course, dangers. Several times he was ambushed by the three clans.

If it weren't for Uchiha Izumi's outstanding strength and her fighting desperately to help him escape, the Rakshasa would have long since returned to the underworld.

And so, a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Kyosuke had finally accumulated enough points.
