"His strength is roughly at the level of a Jonin, but he relies almost entirely on close-quarters combat. When fighting people like this, try to avoid melee unless you have a clear grasp of the situation or are certain you can land a fatal blow."

Uchiha Tamaharu began his explanation right in front of Jabra.

The atmosphere suddenly turned rather bizarre.

Jabra couldn't keep his composure; the way the other party spoke, completely disregarding him as if he were merely a teaching aid, made him incredibly furious.

At the same time, he felt humiliated for having been startled by the change in the other party's eyes just moments ago.

"You've angered me, you brat!!"

Jabra roared in rage.

He then used Soru without hesitation, charging directly toward Uchiha Tamaharu.

He could see that this guy was the leader of these people, so he would take him out first to intimidate these youngsters.

Daring to use them, the elites of the Cipher Pol organization, as teaching material—he would make them regret it.

"So fast!!!"

Kaku and the others, watching from the second-floor window, saw their pupils instantly contract.

Because they discovered that the person had vanished from his spot in an instant, directly dodging Jabra's attack.

"What!"

Jabra was naturally the most shocked of all.

But there was no time for him to be surprised, as he saw a massive fireball rushing straight toward him.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique."

Uchiha Tamaharu had appeared at Jabra's side at some point, performing four hand seals to unleash the Fire Style attack against him.

However, Jabra still had enough time to use Soru, narrowly dodging the flames.

He jumped straight upward, as the streets on both sides left him no room to maneuver.

"Phoenix Sage Fire Claw Crimson."

Uchiha Tamaharu threw five Shuriken, then spat out five small fireballs from his mouth that enveloped the Shuriken, forming a claw-like shape as they surged toward Jabra in mid-air from all directions.

"Dog-Dog Fruit: Wolf Model!"

Feeling the situation becoming tricky, Jabra used his Devil Fruit ability without hesitation.

"He really turned into a wolf!"

Izumi stood on a nearby rooftop, watching these people in astonishment.

The others also wore expressions of surprise; although they had been told about this, seeing it with their own eyes felt completely different.

"Iron Body: Wolf Hunt: All-Directional Claws!"

Jabra swung his hands rapidly, using his claws to unleash slashes similar to Rankyaku, directly scattering the Phoenix Sage Fire Claw Crimson.

But at the same time, his eyes caught something rotating around him.

"Zzzzt!"

It was the steel wires attached to the Shuriken, spinning around Jabra's body.

Reaching the perfect position, Uchiha Tamaharu gave a sharp tug.

The steel wires tightened rapidly.

Jabra sensed something was wrong and tried to use Geppo to escape.

But the speed of Geppo was relatively slow, and having just swung his slashes, his body couldn't escape in time.

In the end, his right leg was caught by the steel wire.

Jabra was just about to swing his right hand to cut the wire.

"Lightning Style."

Uchiha Tamaharu released an electric current from his right hand, and the arc surged along the wire, instantly striking Jabra's body.

Zzzzt, zzzzt, zzzzt.

Jabra's entire body glowed with electricity, his muscles spasming uncontrollably as he plummeted from mid-air.

The battle ended faster than anyone had imagined.

Itachi and the others felt as if they had just prepared for a fight only to find it already over.

Kaku and the others also emerged from the house, stepping directly in front of the fallen Jabra.

They watched Uchiha Tamaharu, who stood not far away, with extreme caution.

Fire, lightning!

What kind of Devil Fruit user was this exactly?

This was the biggest question currently plaguing the minds of Kaku and his companions.

"Itachi, that long-nosed one is yours. Izumi, you handle the one with horns, the painted face, and the fat one. Yashiro, the rest are yours to deal with."

Uchiha Tamaharu gave his orders directly.

It was hard to find suitable opponents, and Uchiha Tamaharu had just demonstrated how to deal with the enemies of this world.

This world was essentially filled with heavy tanks, but ninjas were assassins and mages; they just needed to use the fighting style that suited them best.

If they couldn't win, ninjas were still quite good at running away.

Only after experiencing real combat could Itachi and the others adapt better.

"Yes!"

Itachi and the others looked eager to try.

"Since when did the World Government have a group of people like this!"

Kaku felt a headache coming on.

The way the other side didn't take them seriously at all made them even angrier.

"Who are you calling a fatty!!"

Fukuro was very indignant.

But Itachi and the others didn't waste any words and started attacking immediately.

They started with Kunai and Shuriken; although they were basically at the strength of Jonin, it was naturally best to conserve as much Chakra as possible.

"I can fight too."

Shisui said to Uchiha Tamaharu.

"There are still tougher guys coming, no need to rush."

"Watch this area first, and if there is any danger, intervene in time, especially for Uchiha Izumi, as she has the least practical combat experience."

Uchiha Tamaharu said.

Uchiha Tamaharu had naturally arranged for Uchiha Izumi to serve as a small squad leader.

A Three Tomoe at thirteen years old was full of potential.

As for Three Tomoe users who were older, the Uchiha clan still had nearly twenty of them.

But among those under eighteen, there were only Itachi and Uchiha Izumi, so Uchiha Tamaharu was preparing to cultivate them.

"Understood."

Hearing Uchiha Tamaharu say this, Shisui had no objections.

At the same time, he began to observe the battlefield carefully.

"Why are there so many Devil Fruit users, and all of them use fire!"

Kaku was suffering from a headache due to Itachi's torment.

At the same time, he discovered that these people could all release flames.

This shocked him greatly.

He couldn't quite figure out what was going on.

"You're all so slippery, if you have the guts, don't run, fight me head-on!!"

Fukuro was the angriest.

Being called a fatty made him furious, and the opponents he encountered were so slippery that he couldn't touch them at all.

The Soru that was usually very effective couldn't even catch up to the opponents.

Moreover, every now and then, they would simply disappear before his eyes, making them impossible to find, only to appear from somewhere unknown and land a hit on him.

He was about to be annoyed to death.

"Cough, cough!"

Jabra's body paralysis wore off, and he just sat up and coughed twice.

"Lightning Style."

With the steel wires still attached to his body, Uchiha Tamaharu released Lightning Style again, and the electric current instantly traveled through the wires to Jabra.

Jabra immediately began to convulse all over and fell to the ground, his long wolf muzzle drooling uncontrollably.

"Usually, this level of Lightning Style is enough to kill a person, but he is a Zoan Devil Fruit user with a very strong body. To confirm whether they are dead or not, stabbing the eyeball directly with a Kunai is the fastest method."

Uchiha Tamaharu said to Shisui.

Shisui nodded silently; some of his past experiences were useless, but the experience of actual combat could still be applied in this world.

"It's Kaku and the others!"

"Something happened!"

At the same time, Rob Lucci, who was on the street, noticed the commotion of the battle.

Looking in that direction, his face immediately darkened. He signaled to Kalifa and hurried back.
