"Clan leader!"

Shisui, on his side, also discovered what Fugaku Uchiha was doing in the distance.

This made it somewhat difficult for him to accept.

After all, this matter had already affected the ordinary villagers of Konoha.

It was precisely because he guessed that Shisui might act like a saint that Uchiha Tamaharu chose to let Fugaku handle this task.

However, he had no other choice at this moment, only thinking of stalling the Anbu and keeping them occupied so they would not attack his clansmen.

Although they had been kept in captivity for so many years, the strength of the Uchiha was still beyond reproach.

The strength of the vast majority of Anbu members was actually only at the level of a chunin, and a special jonin was enough to serve as a squad leader.

A jonin could be responsible for several squads.

And an elite jonin like Kakashi was capable of serving as the deputy head of the entire Anbu.

On the Uchiha clan's side, those who activated their Sharingan and trained for a few years could almost reach the level of a chunin.

With a three-tomoe Sharingan, one's strength was enough to rival a jonin.

Although the difficulty of awakening the eyes was much harder than that of the Hyuga clan, there were still nearly a hundred of them.

These clansmen who had awakened their eyes were the main force responsible for the retreat.

Quite a few Anbu still broke through the defensive line, but their goal was more to stop the Space-Time Channel from continuing to operate, so they did not interfere too much with the personnel taking the ordinary Uchiha clansmen away.

They all pointed directly toward the direction of the Space-Time Channel.

But this place was also the position with the second-highest level of defense after the front line, and at the same time, Uchiha Tamaharu was sitting in command here.

He had already taken down five Anbu who had rushed over.

"Fifteen minutes have passed, and there are still over a hundred clansmen who haven't retreated."

"The cumulonimbus clouds have almost disappeared, and the pressure from the Anbu personnel will soon return."

Uchiha Tamaharu wore a cold expression.

At this point, they had already reached the number of 80% of the clansmen escaping as planned.

But Uchiha Tamaharu wanted more clansmen to escape!

"Five minutes. After holding on for five minutes, we will retreat!"

Uchiha Tamaharu finally decided.

He was the one who requested this operation, so he hoped to take as many of the Uchiha clan away as possible.

Not leaving a single one behind.

The three-tomoe Sharingan in his eyes rotated rapidly, transforming into the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Following this, Uchiha Tamaharu leaped violently into mid-air. Doing this exposed himself to everyone; ordinary ninjas would not do this unless they had the ability to fly.

"Boom!"

A black-red skeletal Susanoo directly enveloped Uchiha Tamaharu.

"Clang, clang, clatter."

At the same time, the kunai and shuriken flying toward Uchiha Tamaharu hit it like they were striking armor, completely unable to harm him.

"Tamaharu, he also has the Mangekyō Sharingan!!!"

After Uchiha Tamaharu used the Susanoo, all the members of the Uchiha clan who saw this scene felt a surge of joy in their hearts.

Except for a few who knew about this plan in advance, the other members of the Uchiha clan did not know that he possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan.

This black-red Susanoo raised its right hand and clenched it.

A long spear appeared directly in the palm of the Susanoo's right hand.

"Zzzzt!!"

At the same time, Uchiha Tamaharu directly imbued this spear with Lightning Release.

"Find a way to intercept that attack!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, on his side, was furious at this moment.

This was also the reason why he had not gone to war with the Uchiha until now.

Because if they fought inside the village, not only would the Uchiha suffer losses, but Konoha would as well.

He had known in advance that Uchiha Tamaharu and Uchiha Shisui both possessed the Mangekyō, but the fact that there was an extra Uchiha Fugaku who had awakened the Mangekyō was something he had never expected.

Two Susanoo combined with the members of the Military Police Force had held back nearly a hundred Anbu.

If these two Susanoo were not contained, he could not afford another incident like the bombing of the Hokage Building.

He did not expect that at this moment, Uchiha Tamaharu would step forward.

Uchiha Tamaharu, on his side, did not care what the Konoha ninjas were thinking.

He had already chosen his target, and jumping up was also to hit the target better.

"Targeting the Sarutobi clan compound, locked!"

"Whoosh!!!"

Uchiha Tamaharu prepared to let Sarutobi Hiruzen experience the feeling of having his home destroyed.

The black-red spear, wreathed in lightning, instantly broke the sound barrier, flying out like a true spear of the thunder god.

In the eyes of many, it left a long blue trail streaking across the sky.

"Enma, transform!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen instantly realized that this was the target of the attack.

This made him furious, and he immediately commanded his summoning beast to transform into a staff, intending to extend it to block the strike.

But it was too slow!

By the time Enma finished transforming, the mushroom cloud had already risen.

The entire Konoha shook, and many old houses collapsed from the tremors of the ground.

"Uchiha, I will kill you!!"

"Adamantine Staff, extend!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was enraged!

He aimed the staff directly at Uchiha Tamaharu's Susanoo in mid-air and extended it instantly, reaching nearly the speed of sound.

In less than a breath, it reached right in front of Uchiha Tamaharu.

But Uchiha Tamaharu had no intention of taking the hit head-on; he simply dispelled his Susanoo, causing the staff to miss and fly directly over Uchiha Tamaharu's head.

"Damn it, damn it!!!"

"Organize personnel to go to the Sarutobi clan compound for rescue!!"

Seeing that he had missed, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were so bloodshot they looked as if they were about to bleed, almost as if he were activating a Sharingan.

Yet, he forced himself to remain calm and hurriedly relayed the order through Inoichi Yamanaka's mental connection.

Every life saved was one more; his Sarutobi clan could not be wiped out!!!

"Yes!"

Inoichi Yamanaka's face was ashen.

After all, his mental reach, passing through the barrier, covered almost the entirety of Konoha.

Naturally, he had seen the tragic state of the Sarutobi clan compound.

"Chirp!!!"

Meanwhile, Uchiha Tamaharu landed and let out a sharp, piercing whistle.

Even in an environment filled with constant explosions, it could be heard clearly.

This was the signal to prepare for retreat, with a five-minute window.

Hearing this signal, Fugaku Uchiha felt a surge of joy.

Many of his subordinates were already injured and couldn't hold on much longer; they had already retreated over a hundred meters, and they were actually less than a thousand meters from the extraction point.

The brutal assault had left him no time to calculate how much longer they had, so hearing the retreat signal gave him a sudden boost of energy.

"You all retreat, I will handle the rear guard!"

Uchiha Shisui also recognized the signal, and a look of joy appeared on his face as well.

After all, he did not want both sides to continue fighting; it would only lead to more suffering.

He immediately signaled the surrounding Uchiha to retreat.

"Everyone below the level of Jonin, retreat immediately."

At the same time, at the portal, Uchiha Tamaharu issued his own order.

The more people left behind, the more troublesome it would be; there was no need for such complexity anymore, as they only needed to hold this gate, which didn't require so many people!
