Desperate Situation

"Damn it, it's another Barrier Ninjutsu!"

Watching helplessly as the other seven Sand Village Jonin simultaneously began forming hand seals, Uchiha Tsuki, already entangled with one Sand Village Jonin, knew perfectly well that the others intended to use a barrier technique to trap him, exhausting him in the same way they had previously used to trap a bird in a cage. However, with only 10% of his chakra remaining and in extremely weakened condition, Uchiha Tsuki struggled even against the single Sand Village Jonin before him, leaving him no choice but to watch helplessly as the other seven Sand Village Jonin formed hand seals beside him.

Moreover, the Sand Village Jonin currently entangled with Uchiha Tsuki was as annoying as a leech. Every time Uchiha Tsuki tried to use the Falling Moon Style Shattering Step to break free, the Sand Village Jonin was able to appear in front of Uchiha Tsuki in the first instant, once again buying time for his comrade to form hand seals. In particular, the Sand Village Jonin was only there to entangle Uchiha Tsuki, so even though his close combat ability wasn't particularly outstanding, he was still able to restrict Uchiha Tsuki's movements.

In contrast, Uchiha Yue was in poor condition and unable to use much Chakra in battle.

In the end, Uchiha Tsukuyomi could only watch as the other seven Sand Village Jonin successfully formed hand seals and released a barrier jutsu, trapping him in the center!

"Wind Barrier Array Wall!"

"Boom..."

Once the other seven Sand Village Jonin successfully completed their hand seals, an invisible barrier appeared before Uchiha Tsuki, trapping him and the previous Sand Village Jonin inside. At the same time, using his Purple Eyes to perceive the surrounding situation, Uchiha Tsuki discovered the instant the other seven Sand Village Jonin completed their barrier technique that all seven of them were ninjas with Wind Release chakra.

In this way, after simultaneously performing wind-style chakra nature transformation, the barrier formed by the seven Sand Village Jonin using a barrier technique together would be far more powerful than the barrier formed by seven ordinary ninjas using a barrier technique together. Even at his peak, Uchiha Tsuki would likely have some difficulty breaking through the barrier in front of him.

Moreover, Uchiha Yue's current condition is extremely poor.

However, after the other seven Sand Village Jonin used a barrier technique together to trap Uchiha Tsuki and another Sand Village Jonin, Uchiha Tsuki saw a chance to turn the tide. This was because the barrier technique used by the other seven Sand Village Jonin not only trapped Uchiha Tsuki alone, but also trapped another Sand Village Jonin who was entangled with Uchiha Tsuki.

In this way, a space similar to a duel arena was formed within the barrier, allowing Uchiha Tsuki to fight the Sand Village Jonin in front of him.

If Uchiha Tsuki can kill the Sand Village Jonin in front of him, he will have plenty of time to rest within the barrier.

Then, once Uchiha Tsuki had adjusted his condition, he only needed to break through the barrier blocking his way, and he was confident that he could escape from the other seven Sand Village Jonin.

But...

Ultimately, the truth proved to Uchiha Yue that his thoughts were far too accurate.

Because when Uchiha Tsukuyomi was formulating the battle plan in his mind, he never expected that the seven Sand Village Jonin outside the barrier would be able to use Wind Release ninjutsu to attack him through the barrier!

"Wind Style: Wind Blade!"

"Bang..."

"Bang..."

In an instant, just as Uchiha Tsuki was about to engage in a final battle with the Sand Village Jonin inside the barrier, seven Sand Village Jonin outside the barrier suddenly formed hand seals simultaneously and used a simple Wind Release ninjutsu to attack Uchiha Tsuki through the barrier. At that moment, Uchiha Tsuki thought he finally had a chance to fight the Sand Village Jonin in front of him one-on-one, so he didn't pay much attention to the Sand Village Jonin outside.

After all, in Uchiha Yue's mind, Barrier Ninjutsu were all about creating a barrier that resembled a prison.

Few barrier techniques are like the one used by these Sand Village Jonin, which not only traps those inside but also allows attacks to be launched from the outside.

Therefore, by the time Uchiha Tsukuyomi realized that the Sand Village Jonin outside were using ninjutsu to attack him, it was already too late.

Even though Uchiha Yue was able to dodge using the Falling Moon Flowing Step as much as possible, his poor condition meant he was still hit by the wind-style ninjutsu released by the Sand Village Jonin outside, resulting in gruesome wounds on his arms, legs, and abdomen. Blood flowed continuously, further exacerbating Uchiha Yue's already poor condition.

What frustrated Uchiha Tsuki even more was that the Sand Village Jonin, also trapped within the barrier, gave Uchiha Tsuki no chance to heal after being struck by a Sand Village Jonin's ninjutsu outside. Then, the Sand Village Jonin, also trapped within the barrier, instantly attacked Uchiha Tsuki, using his Chunin-level taijutsu to relentlessly exploit his weakness and squeeze every inch of Uchiha Tsuki's space to survive!

"Boom..."

"Boom..."

While dodging the ninjutsu unleashed by the Sand Village Jonin outside, and the punches and kicks of the Sand Village Jonin in front of him, Uchiha Yue was completely focused on using his Purple Eyes. His aim was to discern all the attack patterns of the Sand Village Jonin around him and use the Falling Moon Style Shrinking Steps to evade as much as possible. However, the Falling Moon Style Shrinking Steps were merely an evasive footwork technique, unlike the Falling Moon Style Instant Step, which could instantly evade enemy attacks.

Therefore, even while trying to avoid the attacks of those Sand Village Jonin, Uchiha Tsuki still couldn't avoid getting injured.

Gradually, Uchiha Yue had more than ten wounds on his body. If Uchiha Yue hadn't been able to use Medical Ninjutsu to stop the bleeding, Uchiha Yue probably would have bled to death long ago!

"Could it be...?"

"Am I going to die at the hands of these Sunagakure ninjas?"

As the number of wounds increased, Uchiha Yue's consciousness began to blur.

Never forget that when Uchiha Tsukuyomi fought against Sasori of the Red Sand and the Third Kazekage, he used the Falling Moon Flow Bloodletting Technique to expel toxins from his body. At that time, Uchiha Tsukuyomi had already suffered serious injuries due to excessive blood loss. Now, as he fights against those Sand Village Jonin, with the increase in wounds, he has naturally lost a lot of the little blood he has left.

Therefore, even though Uchiha Yue was able to stop his bleeding immediately, Uchiha Yue still could not avoid the critical situation of excessive blood loss.

Moreover, Uchiha Yue is currently trapped within the barrier and has no way of breaking out.

As a result, Uchiha Yue found himself in the most desperate situation he had ever faced since becoming a ninja.

This situation made Uchiha Yue feel like he had nowhere to go!
