"Kei-kun, you."
"Don't worry, I just used Genjutsu to make him faint. I know what you mean, and I know what the village means, but we need to hurry. He has a Tailed Beast inside him."
Uchiha Kei looked calmly at Namikaze Minato, guessing Minato's thoughts, or rather, the village's thoughts.
To end the war and prevent the Land of Earth from launching another one, some people naturally couldn't be killed, like Kitsuchi, and like the Five-Tails Jinchuriki.
Kitsuchi probably never dreamed that he thought he had dodged Minato's fatal blow, when in reality, Minato simply didn't want to kill him!
Although the Land of Earth was currently in a difficult situation, if some people died, these Iwa Ninja could become a ticking time bomb.
Moreover, every great nation had sufficient war potential. Since Konoha had already shown what it meant to fight five nations at once, if the Land of Earth went all out against Konoha, Kumogakure would be happy, but Konoha would suffer greatly.
Therefore, Uchiha Kei completely understood Minato's decision. Although he preferred enemies to be dead, he had to follow Minato's arrangements obediently.
As for Uchiha Kei's Genjutsu, it probably wouldn't last long. If Han were an ordinary ninja, Uchiha Kei's Genjutsu could keep him in a dazed state for a long time, even causing him to kill himself.
But unfortunately, he was a Jinchuriki. With two different Chakras within him, he could break free from Genjutsu faster, even if it was Sharingan Genjutsu.
It was true that Sharingan Genjutsu could control Tailed Beasts, but this was based on the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Uchiha Kei indeed had this foundation, but he had only obtained these eyes a few days ago.
Not to mention that he didn't dare to expose his eyes easily, he also hadn't thoroughly researched the other abilities of his eyes.
Uchiha Kei had looked into his innate Dojutsu, but after using it once, he became cautious. He found that this Dojutsu had a terrifying Consumption, not only of Chakra, but also a triple Consumption of eye power and mental power!
Development and exploration were arduous processes, and familiarizing oneself with one's abilities was not achieved overnight. Uchiha Kei had a long way to go.
Hearing Uchiha Kei's words, Minato couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As expected, this young man, who was the same age as Kakashi, was truly extraordinary, able to think from the village's perspective.
But why had he never heard of such a talent before?
Looking at Uchiha Kei's pair of scarlet eyes, Minato sighed. He understood what was going on.
Minato didn't have much to say about the Uchiha Clan's internal affairs, as it was their own business. However, such a clan and their methods had indeed buried many truly intelligent ninjas.
And that clan...
Minato shook his head. As Jiraiya's disciple and the leader of the Jonin squad, he naturally knew many things.
He also felt uncomfortable about this matter. Especially with his Intelligence Quotient, he knew what would happen if this confrontation continued.
"If I could become Hokage..." Minato thought to himself, but it was just a thought. Konoha's political system, although he had a chance, was unlikely to be him.
"Captain Minato." Just as Minato was sighing, Uchiha Kei suddenly called out, "Do you want to take this guy back after completing the mission?"
"Take him back?" Minato snapped back to attention and glanced at Han, who was still in a daze, then pondered, "Good idea. This way, we'll have more Chips."
"Of course," Uchiha Kei nodded. "By the way, where is Imai Kenta? Has he gone ahead?"
Uchiha Kei looked around. During a mission, the mission was naturally more important. Of course, the most important thing was to go back after this damn mission was completed.
Although the future of the Naruto world would be full of constant conflict, and the internal struggles within Konoha had not subsided much.
But a moment of peace would allow Uchiha Kei to rest well and study his abilities, which was much better than endlessly lingering between life and death on the battlefield!
"He has already gone ahead. There are no signs of fighting for now," Namikaze Minato nodded. "But it's probably not optimistic, because I don't think..."
Namikaze Minato didn't finish his sentence. The next second, his expression turned serious, and even Uchiha Kei couldn't help but become vigilant.
They turned their heads in unison. At this moment, although Han was still in a daze, a powerful and suffocating Chakra erupted from him!
This was the power of a Tailed Beast. This power erupted too quickly. In the blink of an eye, Han's entire body was covered in red Chakra, and this Chakra began to expand, gradually taking on the form of a Tailed Beast!
Uchiha Kei frowned. This situation was not what he had considered at all!
Indeed, on the battlefield, to avoid all trouble, it was best to directly eliminate defeated enemies.
But it was unavoidable that on the battlefield, you sometimes had to consider political issues. Sometimes, living people were indeed more valuable than dead ones.
Uchiha Kei sighed. His Ninja Sword was scrap, so he could only take out a Kunai. However, he was considering whether to go back and get a Ninja Sword to use.
"It seems there's some trouble," Namikaze Minato sighed. "You go down first. If not, the other Iwa Ninja are also surrounding us. I'm afraid we'll have to keep fighting."
"Ah, it really might be troublesome," Uchiha Kei also sighed. "I hope Imai Kenta performs well. I don't know what his situation is down there now."
"I'm afraid he's encountered some trouble now too," Namikaze Minato frowned. "He's encountered an unknown opponent. I hope he won't have any problems."
"As expected, there are enemies under the bridge too," Uchiha Kei nodded. "If it really doesn't work, shall we go down together, forcibly complete the mission, and then leave?"
This was considered the last option, but it was also the riskiest. Once they exposed their backs, they would face countless Ninjutsu and sharp Kunai.
Their best course of action now was to tie down the ninja above, waiting for Imai Kenta's performance below. If this guy failed, it would be a big problem, and Uchiha Kei and the others could only rush down themselves and detonate the bridge.
If he succeeded, they would only need to run up, rendezvous with Uchiha Kei and the others, and then leave.
"Yes, that's all we can do now. I hope he can complete the mission."
"Same as before?"
"Yes, same as before."
It feels strange. Although it was clearly stated, the protagonist was unwilling to expose his Mangekyo, and overuse would be fatal to him, who had no brothers.
Moreover, before fighting Kitsuchi, he had created a few Shadow Clones to deceive others. He was already in an incomplete state when fighting Kitsuchi.
After running away, there was no time to rest and recover. He was deep behind enemy lines, big brother. Would others give him a chance to rest?
In an incomplete state, misusing Ninjutsu meant death. Would the protagonist, who cherished his life so much, waste it?
Finally, if everyone wants the protagonist to go on a rampage, then let him do it once.
The End.
