Chapter 35 Sharingan Evolution, 2 Tomoe
Chapter 35 Sharingan Evolution, 2 Tomoe
Without a doubt, the strength Kitahara Kaede displayed almost scared him to death.
He previously thought this was just an easy task, merely a regular Chunin, while he himself was already a Special Jonin, and was only a hair's breadth away from becoming a true Jonin.
But when the fight actually started, they realized something was completely wrong; Kitahara Kaede's strength was at least at the level of a Special Jonin.
Lord Danzo is right, this kid really has something going on; he's not an ordinary Chunin.
It's entirely possible that they are spies from another village.
This series of actions, though seemingly long, actually only takes a short time.
Before the monkey-masked ninja could even catch his breath, Kitahara Kaede charged forward. Almost the instant the monkey-masked ninja retreated, Kitahara Kaede caught up, and they could even be considered to be moving in sync.
"How is that possible!"
The monkey-masked ninja was still shocked that Kitahara Kaede's strength far exceeded what was described in the intelligence data, but at this moment he was cornered by Kitahara Kaede.
"when!"
Almost instantly, the monkey-masked ninja drew his shuriken and engaged Kitahara Kaede in a physical duel.
"Damn it, how could this happen!"
The monkey-masked ninja quickly realized that he was completely at a disadvantage when he was fighting Kitahara Kaede in taijutsu. Although he had received good taijutsu training, Kitahara Kaede's taijutsu was quite average, and he obviously did not have the resources for taijutsu training.
However, Kitahara Kaede was able to suppress the monkey-masked ninja with his inferior taijutsu skills, not only because Kitahara Kaede's physical abilities had surpassed his, but also because every collision caused his arm to go slightly numb.
More importantly, he felt that Kitahara Kaede could see through all his movements. Even if he just moved his shoulder, Kitahara Kaede could immediately tell what he wanted to do. This kind of insight was terrifying.
Even a seasoned veteran ninja wouldn't normally be able to achieve this level of skill.
What's wrong with Kitahara Kaede? He's acting so strangely.
Lord Danzo's guess was correct; Kitahara Kaede is indeed strange, there's definitely something wrong with him.
Although Kitahara Kaede's taijutsu skills were inferior to those of the monkey-masked ninja, his insight was far superior. He could discern the opponent's motives every time and completely overwhelm him.
Meanwhile, as Kitahara Kaede was dominating the monkey-masked ninja, Ayato Genryu and Hyuga Keiko were locked in a fierce battle, their strength far inferior to the two experienced Root ninjas.
They also needed Kitahara Kaede to occasionally throw darts or kunai to relieve their stress.
At this moment, Kitahara Kaede also fully realized his shortcomings. Whether it was illusion, taijutsu, or ninjutsu, he lacked a decisive means.
He is currently suppressing his opponent with his physical abilities and the combat power enhanced by his Sharingan. Given enough time, it is foreseeable that he will kill his opponent.
However, his two teammates didn't have that much time; they had to find a way to kill the monkey-masked ninja as soon as possible.
Suddenly, at that moment, Kitahara Kaede felt a change in his eyes, and a clear stream flowed into them.
He clearly felt that in an instant, his pupil power had increased significantly.
Is this an evolution of the Sharingan?
It has evolved to the double tomoe stage?
Kitahara Kaede hadn't expected that his Sharingan would evolve again in such a short time.
In a state of anxiety, the fluctuation of emotions prompted the Sharingan to complete its second evolution.
At that moment, the monkey-masked ninja opposite him immediately sensed Kitahara Kaede's change, and his attack speed became faster and his perception stronger.
Kitahara Kaede fought him at close range, leaving him no time to form hand seals. Kitahara Kaede knew far more ninjutsu than Kitahara Kaede, but he was forced to have no room to use them.
Kitahara Kaede didn't give him any possibility of forming hand seals at all.
Just as he was anxiously trying to break away from Kitahara Kaede and unleash his ninjutsu, his movements suddenly slowed down, though it was only for a moment before he realized what was happening.
"This is an illusion!"
He suddenly realized that he had been under an illusion.
There are many types of illusions, and many illusions used in battle can interfere with the opponent's movements, even if only for a moment. For a ninja, even a moment of slowness can be fatal.
For example, right now, Kitahara Kaede's shuriken has pierced directly into the opponent's throat.
The monkey-masked ninja was absolutely right; he had indeed been under a genjutsu spell.
Kitahara Kaede has just evolved a two-tomoe Sharingan. Although he has not yet researched the corresponding Sharingan genjutsu, he doesn't need to learn how to use the hypnotic eye to cast a small genjutsu to interfere with his movements. It's almost instinctive.
That momentary lapse in movement finally allowed Kitahara Kaede to find an opening.
After dealing with the monkey-masked ninja, Kitahara Kaede immediately headed towards the battlefield between the eagle-masked ninja and Xiangtian Genryu. In just a short exchange, Xiangtian Genryu was injured and had to dodge the opponent's attacks in a very disheveled manner.
Although Hyuga Keiko was also at a disadvantage, she was able to barely hold on thanks to the insightful abilities of her Byakugan.
In an instant, Kitahara Kaede threw a dart to force the eagle-masked ninja to disengage from the fight, and in that moment, he had already arrived in front of the eagle-masked ninja.
Kitahara Kaede's Sharingan emitted an eerie light, instantly dragging his opponent into a genjutsu.
The monkey-masked ninja was at least equivalent to a regular Jonin, and Kitahara Kaede could only control him for a moment. However, this eagle-masked ninja was only at the level of an elite Chunin, and their strengths were far inferior.
Before he could even wake up, Kitahara Kaede slit his throat with her shuriken.
Only when the blood splattered did they come to their senses from the illusion, but it was too late.
"Are you alright?" Kitahara Kaede asked.
"It's alright, hurry up and help Keiko," Xiang Tianyuanlong said.
"Um!"
Kitahara Kaede nodded and charged directly toward the fox-masked ninja.
At this moment, Kitahara Kaede's killing of two people had already attracted the attention of the fox-masked ninja, who was immediately terrified.
She never imagined that a simple mission to hunt down ninjas would end up with the risk of total annihilation.
Almost immediately, she turned and ran away.
"Don't even think about escaping, Bagua Palm."
Hyuga Keiko finally received Kitahara Kaede's support and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, she immediately stepped forward and blocked the fox-masked ninja's escape route.
The fox-masked ninja was forced back, hissing in a low voice, "You dare kill members of Root? Lord Danzo will not let you get away with this!"
