The Mystery of the Poisonous Fog
It would still be somewhat difficult for Uchiha Tsukuyomi to capture the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him.
Currently, Uchiha Yue has suffered severe effects from using the Falling Moon Style's ultimate technique, Air Tremor, twice. Therefore, his chances of winning against the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him are very slim. He can only resort to a hit-and-run tactic to deplete the Hoshigakure Jonin's chakra. Once the Hoshigakure Jonin's chakra is depleted to a certain extent, he will then capture him.
However, never forget that Uchiha Yue's current battle is taking place on the outskirts of Hoshigakure.
If the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of Uchiha Tsuki uses the Hoshigakure's secret technique, the Peacock Technique, to seek reinforcements, then Uchiha Tsuki will be facing not just one Hoshigakure Jonin, but the entire Hoshigakure ninja. Therefore, Uchiha Tsuki must resist the attack of the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him while preventing the Jonin from seeking assistance from Hoshigakure.
Therefore, Uchiha Yue had no choice but to end the battle quickly.
After all, the longer it drags on, the more likely those guys from Hoshigakure will discover Uchiha Yue's whereabouts.
On the other hand, Uchiha Tsuki, preoccupied with capturing the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him, naturally had to expend more energy.
So, just as the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of Uchiha Tsukuyomi was about to attack using the Peacock Technique, Uchiha Tsukuyomi disregarded the depletion of his chakra and used Shunpo!
"Whoosh..."
In the blink of an eye, Uchiha Tsuki appeared before the Hoshigakure Jonin. However, upon reaching the Jonin, Uchiha Tsuki did not immediately use the Rakugetsu-ryu swordsmanship or its secret techniques to launch an attack. Instead, he gathered his chakra in his eyes, awakening the Uchiha clan's bloodline limit, causing his Sharingan, in its three-tomoe form, to appear in his pupils.
Blood-red pupils, three black Tomoe...
When the Hoshigakure Jonin noticed the change in Uchiha Tsuki's pupils, he immediately guessed Uchiha Tsuki's identity.
However, it was precisely because the Hoshigakure Jonin guessed Uchiha Tsuki's identity that he was momentarily stunned. He was puzzled as to why the Uchiha clan of Konoha would come to Hoshigakure. The Uchiha clan of Konoha was a powerful and prestigious family in the ninja world; any ninja from any other village would likely be similarly stunned upon discovering an invasion by the Uchiha clan.
Therefore, taking advantage of the moment when the Hoshigakure Jonin was distracted, Uchiha Tsukuyomi began to form hand seals and used his own spiritual energy to suppress the Hoshigakure Jonin.
It's possible that every ninja from Hoshigakure uses the village's sacred relic, the "Star," for training, possessing an extremely high amount of chakra. To control the vast chakra cultivated from the "Star," each Hoshigakure ninja has exceptionally strong mental energy. However, compared to Uchiha Tsuki, that Hoshigakure Jonin's mental energy was rather inadequate. Then, the moment Uchiha Tsuki used his mental energy to suppress it, the Hoshigakure Jonin found it difficult to control his own mental energy.
Then, seeing that the spiritual energy of the Star Village Jonin was suppressed, Uchiha Tsukuyomi directly used his Sharingan in its three-tomoe form to cast a powerful genjutsu!
"Bringer-of-Darkness Technique!"
"Boom..."
Using genjutsu learned from the Second Hokage, Uchiha Tsukuyomi directly used the Dark Travel Technique to seal the visual abilities of the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him. Then, without hesitation, he used the terrifying ability of the Devouring Monster Ido to control the five senses, stripping the Hoshigakure Jonin of his hearing. With both sight and hearing deprived, the Hoshigakure Jonin essentially lost the ability to resist Uchiha Tsukuyomi.
Immediately afterwards...
Uchiha Yue used Flash Step once again, gripping his Fubuki Tachi, and unleashed the Falling Moon Style Swordsmanship!
"Falling Moon Style Clone Slash!"
"Whoosh..."
"Whoosh..."
Controlling two clones formed from concentrated wind-style chakra, Uchiha Yue captured the Hoshigakure Jonin in just a few seconds. This was because when Uchiha Yue used the clone slash, he controlled both of his clones, severing the Jonin's legs. The Jonin, stripped of his sight and hearing, didn't even have time to use the Peacock Technique to resist before being trapped in a desperate situation.
However, when Uchiha Tsuki successfully captured the Hoshigakure Jonin in front of him, he paused, took a deep breath, and slowly walked towards the defenseless Jonin. Clearly, his previous battle with the two Hoshigakure Jonin had also depleted his chakra and mental energy. Now that he had finally captured the Jonin, he needed some time to rest before interrogating him for the information he needed.
Undoubtedly, the Hoshigakure Jonin captured by Uchiha Tsukuyomi now knows far more information than the previous Hoshigakure Chunin.
Therefore, just in case, Uchiha Yue decided to directly invade the mental space of that Hoshigakure Jonin and read his memories.
Then, when Uchiha Tsuki arrived in front of the Hoshigakure Jonin, he knocked him unconscious and prepared to invade the Jonin's mental space.
Now, Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy had become much purer, almost enough to devour the power of the monster Ido again. Therefore, when Uchiha Yue invaded the mental space of that Hoshigakure Jonin, the intrusion went extremely smoothly. Soon, Uchiha Yue invaded the mental space of that Hoshigakure Jonin and read through his memories.
In just a few seconds of memory, Uchiha Tsuki obtained a great deal of information from that Hoshigakure Jonin.
Among these, the information that Uchiha Yue was most concerned about was naturally the information about the cooperation between Hoshigakure and the Akatsuki organization.
Unfortunately, the information the Hoshigakure Jonin knew about the Akatsuki organization was also very limited. Uchiha Tsuki only learned from the Hoshigakure Jonin that Hoshigakure did indeed cooperate with the Akatsuki organization, but he was still unclear about the specifics of their cooperation. However, even without obtaining the details of the cooperation between Hoshigakure and the Akatsuki, Uchiha Tsuki did obtain some information from the Hoshigakure Jonin that he was particularly interested in.
And the contents of that intelligence...
That is the mystery of the poisonous fog surrounding the Hoshigakure!
