Chapter 180: Is the Protagonist Happy?
Having temporarily stabilized the situation, Uchiha Ye rushed eastward to provide support, and she also sent three shadow clones to provide support in other directions.
She doesn't have time to construct spirit clones; right now, the last thing she lacks is chakra, and shadow clones are much more useful.
If they can hold out for another day or two, they will definitely retreat, otherwise they will be attacked from both sides, which is definitely not the situation they want to see.
Uchiha Ye headed east and saw the Kazekage of Sunagakure descending from afar. "Rasa, the one who pans for gold in the sand, here I come."
If possible, arrest him and make him pan for gold for her every day.
With this thought in mind, Uchiha Ye rushed to the eastern position and casually left a Flying Thunder God seal. Her arrival instantly eased the one-sided situation in the east and forced Rasa away from the crowded area.
On the north side, the Hidden Mist Village mostly uses Water Release, which is relatively effective against the Uchiha clan. However, after a day of fighting, many clan members have awakened the Sharingan. Although some people died, their overall combat strength has increased significantly, so it can be considered a mixed bag.
It's hard to say whether Itachi, at his current age, could win against the Mizukage Yagura.
She had barely thought that when she saw Itachi being knocked away. "Assassination attempt on the Mizukage failed!"
The shadow clone, who happened to be arriving at the scene, caught Itachi without hesitation. "Are you alright?"
Itachi found the voice heavenly, and he longed to embrace the person before him and tell her how much he missed her. But for now, he could only suppress this impulse.
“You’re here as a shadow clone; I’ll assist you,” she whispered in his ear.
"Okay." Itachi was instantly filled with motivation.
She suddenly remembered that she should be more aloof now. "Never mind, shadow clones have personalities too."
On the south side, the Raikage also entered the fray. Uchiha Ye immediately left two shadow clones on the east side to restrain the Kazekage Rasa, while her main body used the Flying Thunder God Technique to arrive on the south side. With her current stats, she was already able to open seven of the Eight Gates.
She just wanted to compete with the Raikage in speed and strength.
On the west side, Mo, with Danzo's face on his back, handed over command to Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, and then rushed over, completely ignoring the two calling after him.
The battles between Kage-level ninjas have a significant impact on the surrounding area; a single misstep could result in injury or death. Fortunately, they all tacitly agree to stay away from crowds.
The only saving grace was that, apart from Kirigakure, the other three villages did not bring any Jinchūriki with them.
The ninjas outside Konoha were all rushing back at that moment.
They simply couldn't imagine how the ninjas left behind in Konoha would defend against attacks from the four villages.
Aside from his main body, Uchiha Hayao's other shadow clones are incredibly useful when assisted by Wood Release ninjutsu. It's a pity they can't be as powerful as the First Hokage, but they might be able to put up a fight by releasing spiritual energy.
It's been such a short time since the fusion, and she hasn't learned that many Wood Release ninjutsu yet. She just learned 'Advent of the World of Trees' because she thought the name sounded cool, and luckily it's still quite useful.
She doesn't plan to use her spiritual power yet; her main focus right now is on improving her ninjutsu proficiency and waiting for Obito to appear. Of course, she needs to conserve her true strength.
The fact that so many people from the four villages were able to break through the border defenses without attracting attention is already a huge problem; only his ridiculously good eyesight could have done that.
Uchiha Yoh temporarily distanced himself from Raikage A, glanced at the ninjutsu section of his character panel, and remarked, "As expected, you still have to fight to quickly improve your ninjutsu proficiency."
Her eyes swept downwards, and she noticed a commotion coming from the mission area. "Reward for successfully protecting Konoha from destruction: [Sword of Destiny]."
"Success conditions: The damage to Konoha Village's buildings must not exceed 50%, and the mortality rate must not exceed 30%." Uchiha Ye's eyes immediately lit up.
"The Sword of Destiny?"
Actually, she didn't really care about the name; what she mainly wanted to know was whether the sword was a magical artifact or something. If it was, her strength could instantly increase by several times, and she was even thinking about 'flying on the sword'.
This mission seems much more difficult than the previous ones. "Hopefully, this sword won't disappoint her."
Uchiha Ye looked around at the Konoha buildings. It seemed that no more than 50% of the buildings were destroyed. As for the death toll, the mission had not yet shown as a failure, so it certainly had not exceeded 30%.
Long before, everyone except the ninjas had already been evacuated to the shelter. As long as no one attacked there, this condition could definitely be met. But just in case, she still had to do her best to save the ninjas' lives.
Just then, the attacking enemy ninjas suddenly all retreated.
"A deceptive tactic?"
She couldn't believe that they would pay such a high price just to launch a surprise attack on Konoha.
Next time they come, it will definitely be an even more intense surprise attack.
With the enemy temporarily retreating, Mo, posing as Danzo, began to methodically direct the personnel. After counting the dead, he found that it was much better than expected; most of the dead were genin.
Upon this discovery, Mo immediately gathered all the genin. Some joined the medical team to treat patients, some went to protect the villagers in the shelter and take care of the wounded, and others were responsible for transmitting messages and transporting supplies to various locations.
As for direct combat, they are unnecessary; they are not even worth one percent of the strength of one of her shadow clones.
Mo refused to let the injured ninja continue fighting, not allowing him to participate even with the slightest injury, all for the sake of the mission.
Uchiha Ye planned to use a human wave tactic with shadow clones in the next surprise attack, giving each shadow clone a wisp of spiritual power, but it wouldn't be so easy for them to be turned into smoke and disappear.
For the first time, she directly faced the realization that she was the biggest bug in the game.
If he could, Uchiha Ye would prefer to solo the task; it would be far more convenient.
She really wanted to try out the Nine-Tails Mode and the Mangekyou Sharingan 'Susanoo,' but the consequences were too great, so she decided against it; there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
After this battle, the Uchiha clan will definitely usher in a major turning point. If she reveals that she has the Nine-Tails and the Mangekyou Sharingan inside her, she will be slapped back to her original position, or even worse.
Although she preferred the Uchiha clan to leave Konoha, she still had to respect other people's choices; her preference didn't mean others would.
The moment his chakra was restored, Uchiha Ye immediately praised him, "Little Nine, it's so great to have you. I'll definitely let you go out and have some fun after we leave Konoha."
"Hmm," Yin Jiu Lama replied with a touch of arrogance.
It never imagined accepting a human so quickly, letting her use its chakra at will.
But no one has ever treated it as an equal, and this person, who is clearly capable of controlling it, has not chosen to do so. Every time she uses its chakra, she reports to it, even though she could extract it directly.
Although their acquaintance was brief, it quite liked this person, and it certainly wasn't because of the promises she made.
The Nine-Tails is inside Uchiha Yoru, making for an incredibly immersive experience.
She finally got to experience the protagonist's joy—having inexhaustible chakra and even being able to help you replenish it.
She also really likes the proud and aloof Nine-Tails. She plans to capture some tailed beasts and seal them inside her body so that Little Nine won't be lonely.
