The ninja fighting Uchiha Yo was highly skilled and vicious in his attacks. Even after activating his Sharingan, Uchiha Yo could barely hold him off. It wasn't as though Uchiha Yo hadn't tried little tricks—he had used every clever trick he normally thought of, like throwing a handful of shuriken and then turning them into Shadow Clones to attack after the enemy dodged. All the ingenious uses of Shadow Clones he had imagined before proved ineffective, while consuming a great deal of chakra instead.

Uchiha Ming fought with ease. His opponent was already wounded and had lost the initiative, leaving him only able to defend passively. A defense maintained too long was bound to fail, and new blade wounds steadily appeared on his body. With Uchiha Ming's experience, killing him was only a matter of time. But he wasn't alone—he had to support his student. The enemy clearly understood their respective situations as well, struggling desperately as he waited for his teammate's aid.

The two Uchiha were being beaten without any ability to fight back. Though they worked together seamlessly, their opponent was far stronger than either of them. He was a ninjutsu-focused ninja, and his side was by far the loudest, filled with the clashes of various elemental techniques. The experience also deepened the two's understanding of ninjutsu. They either combined their techniques or had one attack while the other defended, yet they were still sent rolling across the ground, dodging again and again. Their opponent formed hand seals extremely quickly and had mastered three elemental releases—Water Release, Earth Release, and Lightning Release—along with the Body Flicker Technique. Very simple ninjutsu, but used properly, they left you completely helpless.

The scales of victory seemed to be tilting against the Uchiha. At this point, whether Uchiha Yo could hold on and whether Uchiha Ming could kill his opponent had become the deciding factors.

"Not bad, Uchiha brat, lasting this long. I'll send you to meet your dead clansmen. Hehehe... A genius like you was actually born into that cursed clan. You should have been drowned at birth. The Uchiha are Konoha's tumor. Don't worry, Lord Danzo will one day send your clansmen to keep you company." The enemy began provoking Uchiha Yo with words, and Uchiha Yo was indeed affected. He was struck in the head, and although he blocked with his arm, he was still kicked away. The enemy gave him no chance, immediately rushing over to deliver the final blow. The reason Uchiha Yo had been hit while the man was talking wasn't because he had been provoked. What kind of transmigrator would be rattled by that? In his original world, what kind of trolls hadn't he seen? He had been kicked because the man had spoken. Aren't Root ninja all supposed to be wooden dolls? He actually talked. "Fire Release: Dragon Flame Technique!" The ninjutsu temporarily forced the enemy back a short distance. The intense pain in his head was almost unbearable. He really hit hard. Blood flowed from his nose and left ear. He spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as though he was about to pass out. "Do you know why I spoke to you? Hahaha! Because of your trial, your mother killed several Root ninja with considerable potential. We put missions first and rarely have much emotion, but every Root ninja has someone they want to protect. My younger brother died at your mother's hands. I really want to see her expression when she sees your corpse. It will definitely feel wonderful! Your sinful life can end here." So Mother went to kill people that day. I thought... Uchiha Yo's face reddened as the thought came to him. He shook his head. He was happy. His mother had done so much for him—she was so cool. He had to go back and ask her himself. He had to live. I have to live. "Hehe, since you love your younger brother so much, I'll send you to see him. How nice—holding hands as you go together. Don't keep him waiting too long." The enemy charged over and shouted, "Die!" Then he saw a pair of Sharingan—not the previous one single tomoe and one double tomoe, but a pair of double tomoe. The person before him became his beloved younger brother. Damn, genjutsu. Uchiha Yo spoke softly. It was over. "Genjutsu: Sharingan." As the enemy lost focus, his blade rose and fell. It was over. If he hadn't broken through at the last moment, he would have died. My head is spinning... Lying on the ground and gasping for breath, he thought, I'm still too weak. That was Uchiha Yo's final thought before losing consciousness.
