"Call!!"
Finally, Uya let out a sigh of relief, released the Added-Weight Rock Technique, and looked at the sky.
Before we knew it, it was already noon.
"Okay, it's time to go back for dinner."
After a slight smile, Uya put on the clothes she had folded aside during her training to prevent them from getting soaked with sweat.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance.
" Uya! It's so late, why aren't you going back!"
Kushina puffed out her cheeks and glared angrily at Uya, then walked towards Uya, seemingly carrying a lunchbox in her hand.
But the moment Uya saw Kushina, he showed a look of astonishment.
Blinking, Uya's face showed a hint of confusion.
Then, when Kushina walked up to Uya, Uya reached out and made a grabbing motion, and the Kusanagi Sword appeared, sweeping across her body.
Kushina's expression remained unchanged from a moment ago, still smiling, before she vanished in front of Uya in an instant.
When she appeared, Uya sensed something was wrong, because in Uya's Shockwave Sensing, she was not there!
It's visible to the eye, but not perceptible to the senses... Is this Genjutsu?!
Who is it?!
Uya frowned, first wondering how he could have fallen under Genjutsu without realizing it, then his body trembled, the Power of Tremors erupting and cleansing the Chakra within his body.
Just as she was certain that she had broken free of the Genjutsu and was no longer susceptible to Genjutsu, a person walked up to Uya.
" Konoha Shura, you can distinguish illusions just by their aura...?"
Uchiha Rin calmly looked at Uya, her eyes being ordinary black pupils, without having activated her Sharingan.
But when Uya saw him, she frowned once again.
Although he frowned, Uya showed no fear on his face. Instead, he asked in a calm tone, "Who are you, and what have you done?"
As a squad leader of the Konoha Military Police Force, Uchiha Rin was a well-known figure in Konoha, if not a household name. Yet, Uya's question, "Who are you?" momentarily stunned Uchiha Rin, before anger rose within her.
In reality, Uya had never paid attention to the situation of the Uchiha Clan, or rather, he simply couldn't be bothered to.
"It seems necessary to teach you a good lesson."
Uchiha Rin was burning with rage, but her face remained calm and indifferent as she looked at Uya and said, "I am Uchiha Rin, and my purpose is to kill you."
"Kill me?"
After a slight pause, Uya suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh.
Is he talking in his sleep?!
laugh!!
In the next instant, Uya swept his sword across, Uchiha Rin in front of him was instantly cut in two.
However, the two halves of Uchiha Rin's body that were severed mysteriously transformed back into two complete bodies.
The two identical Uchiha Rin looked at Uya indifferently, their eyes seemingly revealing a hint of contempt and disdain, as if they were looking down from the sky.
"Strange? Confused? Don't you feel like you're not under Genjutsu, but why is this happening?!"
The two Uchiha Rin spoke in unison, a cold arrogance on their faces, saying, "You underestimate the great Uchiha Clan. Even now, under the name of the Uchiha Clan, you are nothing but an ant."
Uya calmly watched Uchiha Rin put on a show in front of him, but in his heart he was pondering the reason.
Clearly, it was impossible for him to be under Genjutsu, and the Uchiha Rin in front of him was not a clone, nor was it the type of Hydrification Technique by the Hozuki Clan.
Moreover, his situation is the same as Kushina's before; he can be seen with the eyes, but in the Shockwave Sensing, he is completely nonexistent.
Whoosh!!
In the next instant, both Uchiha Rin drew their swords simultaneously and swung them at Uya.
Uya raised an eyebrow, standing still as the two swords passed through his body without causing him any harm; clearly, it was just an illusion.
"You can tell I'm an illusion now... but it's more than just an illusion..."
Both Uchiha Rin turned to look at Uya at the same time, but their faces showed a mocking expression, and they swung their swords at Uya once again.
This time, however, it was completely different from the last; a chilling killing intent was emanating from it! (To be continued.)
