Seeing that his master was safe, Uchiha Kage finally let out a long breath of relief.
Seeing an elite jonin so concerned about the black-cloaked, masked man, Uzumaki Jiusen immediately realized that he was the real big shot.
He had never expected to make it back alive from this mission. He would kill as many of them as he could.
Besides, his opponent was nowhere near as strong as the elite jonin. You had to pick on the weaker ones.
Uzumaki Jiusen controlled the chains and instantly locked onto the black-cloaked man.
"Master, go!"
Uchiha Kage instantly moved in front of Uchiha Yang, swinging his blade to block several consecutive chain attacks.
[Brain: Now! Go!]
[Legs: On it.]
Uchiha Yang turned into a blur and darted past Uchiha Kage, charging straight at his opponent.
Seeing this, Uchiha Kage was about to follow when several chains suddenly surged toward him and wrapped around his body.
Seeing the masked man in black recklessly charge at him, Uzumaki Jiusen was overjoyed.
Perfect. He had been wondering how to kill his opponent, and now the man was practically delivering himself into his hands.
The moment they closed in, two chains wound toward Uchiha Yang from either side. Just as Uzumaki Jiusen was about to celebrate, a Three-Tomoe Sharingan appeared.
In the darkness, the slowly turning Three-Tomoe Sharingan looked especially eerie, its red glow like blood.
"Damn it, didn't he have a Two-Tomoe Sharingan before?"
Uzumaki Jiusen stared in shock. In the very next instant, he felt a buzz inside his head.
The world spun around him, and blood-red light flooded everything. Countless Three-Tomoe Sharingan stared coldly at him from every direction.
Fear instantly spread through his heart, and the sheer terror made his heart pound faster and faster.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
His heart raced, making the blood in his veins boil. His body was swollen with blood, and he felt unnaturally exhilarated.
But his breathing grew just as rapid, and he seemed to be running out of oxygen.
No!
Uzumaki Jiusen panicked. He could clearly feel that his condition would collapse before long.
In the real world, blood poured uncontrollably from Uzumaki Jiusen's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
This was the power of the Sharingan—the genjutsu it could wield only after awakening the Three-Tomoe.
Uchiha Yang sprang forward, his icy blade flashing with a fierce glint in the hazy night.
At the moment of his death, Uzumaki Jiusen left the world of genjutsu. The world spun around him, and he saw a headless corpse.
Uchiha Yang stood on Uzumaki Jiusen's head. Looking at the headless body spurting blood like a fountain, he gave a cold smile.
[Sharingan: Heh heh heh. An elite jonin is nothing special. I could take on ten!]
[Mouth: This is the enemy? Pathetic.]
[Brain: When it comes to showing off, I'm no match for the mouth. When it comes to strength, I'm no match for the Sharingan or the hands. But when it comes to intelligence, all I can say is that everyone here is a moron.]
[Lightning Affinity: I'm completely irrelevant here. Sorry to interrupt. I'm off to train.]
The other four affinities also said not to disturb them while they trained. They hadn't played any part in the battle, and they were downright embarrassed.
[Hands: My blade is drenched in the blood of my enemies. I nourish my weapon with blood. I alone reign supreme.]
[Legs: Enough showing off. I'm the one doing all the running around.]
Once the battle was over, Uchiha Yang decided he'd had enough of his body showing off and took control again.
The body fell quiet at once. Now that its master had taken over, everyone else could go back to training.
"Kage, are you all right?"
Uchiha Yang noticed Uchiha Kage's injuries and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Master."
Uchiha Kage had hastily bandaged his wounds. He said he was all right, though he would need some time to recover.
"Taking down that elite jonin was thanks in no small part to your genjutsu. It weakened his mind beforehand."
"Let's go see how things are up ahead. Remember, don't tell anyone about my strength."
"Understood, Master."
After giving Uchiha Kage a few simple instructions, Uchiha Yang had him come along to the battle site ahead of the clan compound.
On the way, Uchiha Yang burned the mask and black cloak.
When they reached the battlefield, Uchiha Yang saw Uchiha Izuna covered in wounds.
"Izuna!"
Uchiha Yang ran over. Uchiha Kage immediately took over fighting Izuna's opponent, while Uchiha Yang pulled Izuna away.
"Why are you here? It's dangerous."
When Uchiha Izuna saw Uchiha Yang, he felt relieved, but his words were stern and reproachful.
"Uchiha Kage has already dealt with one of the elite jonin from the Uzumaki Clan who invaded the compound, along with several Chunin."
"I've also sent people to deal with the other enemies."
As they spoke, Uchiha Kage had already taken down one of the two Uzumaki jonin who had been fighting Uchiha Izuna for a long time.
Uzumaki Ajian saw another elite jonin join the Uchiha side and immediately had a bad feeling.
If the man was here, it meant something had gone wrong for Jiusen. He had probably been killed.
"Thank goodness. We have you to thank for this, Cousin."
Uchiha Izuna's heart finally settled. The crisis facing the clan compound was nearly over.
"This is my home. I won't let anyone ruin my peaceful life."
Uchiha Yang smiled, but no one knew what his words really meant.
They had stopped him from living the quiet life he wanted and ruined his peace.
It seemed the Uzumaki Clan had no interest in living peacefully.
If they wouldn't let him live in peace, then they'd better wait and see. He'd make sure none of them could.
Once the war with the Senju Clan was over, he would give his uncle a perfect plan for revenge.
After seeing that the situation was mostly under control, Uchiha Madara looked unusually relieved.
His younger cousin might have grown lazy, but he had never stopped caring about the clan.
Once his father returned, he would make sure to tell him to reward his cousin.
"Uzumaki Clan, wait for the Uchiha Clan's revenge!"
"Hahaha!"
Seeing the tide turn, Uchiha Kiri turned his frustration into fuel and began relentlessly pursuing Uzumaki Ajian.
Uzumaki Ajian had already decided to retreat. There was no point continuing to fight. If he stayed, he would only be giving the Uchiha more heads to claim.
Besides, the sudden arrival of the Uchiha elite jonin had broken the balance. His people were already at a disadvantage.
"Trying to run?"
When Uchiha Kiri saw him move to flee, he immediately pursued him, giving him no chance at all.
After killing the enemy in front of him, Uchiha Madara came over to Uchiha Yang and Uchiha Izuna.
"Big brother, can you hold on?"
Uchiha Izuna asked anxiously.
"Don't worry. I'm not dead yet."
Uchiha Madara sat down and took off his shirt. Several wounds on his body were almost charred.
Seeing how battered Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna were, Uchiha Yang knew their enemies must have had some powerful techniques.
Otherwise, with both Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna wielding the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, they wouldn't have been in such a sorry state, even against several elite jonin.
Uzumaki Ajian had come thoroughly prepared for this raid on the Uchiha Compound.
He had three scrolls on him alone, all powerful and rare Sealing Scrolls.
They were incredibly valuable. Even the Uzumaki Clan couldn't produce them at a whim.
Uchiha Madara had relied on his own strength to evade three powerful sealing attacks.
Even so, he had paid a considerable price.
After Uchiha Kage finished off the remaining enemies, he joined their fight as well.
"You threatened my master's safety. You deserve to die."
Uzumaki Ajian's face was deathly pale. Facing two Uchiha ninja of equal strength, both wielding the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, he knew he was as good as dead.
Seeing that his opponent was nearly finished, Uchiha Yang couldn't help stretching.
"The Uzumaki Clan was behind this attack on the compound. It's getting late, so I'm going back to rest."
After taking a couple of steps, Uchiha Yang turned back and added one more thing to the two of them.
"Please tell Uncle when he gets back that I'll have a plan to retaliate against the Uzumaki Clan ready for him in three days."
Watching his cousin walk away, Uchiha Izuna murmured, "Looks like Cousin's in a terrible mood now that his peaceful life has been ruined."
Uchiha Madara nodded. "Yeah. I know how clever he is. That's why I've never been willing to accept him wasting away like this."
"Come on, Izuna. Let's finish off the last of the enemies together. The clan suffered heavy losses this time, and the Uzumaki Clan must face the Uchiha Clan's wrath."
"Of course, Big Brother."
