Chapter 163: Two-Tails Yugito Nii

Uchiha Feiyu does not particularly care where the ninjas of the Land of Grass end up; with the strength of Mui and several high-ranking Grass Ninja, it would not actually be difficult if they truly wanted to rebuild the Grass Ninja Village.

It is just that with the implementation of the universal chakra policy, the disadvantages of a small country like the Land of Grass have become increasingly obvious; even if they wanted to be fence-sitters in the future, they likely would no longer have the qualifications to do so.

Especially since Uchiha Feiyu took away the Hunyuan Treasure Box; without such a treasure, the quality of the Land of Grass ninjas will understandably decline significantly, and they have basically lost their competitiveness.

Coupled with the energy and time required to rebuild the Grass Ninja Village, Mui and the others likely will not engage in such futile efforts.

The war between the Leaf and the Rock Ninja has come to an end, while in the Land of Frost, the war between the Cloud Ninja and the Leaf is on the verge of breaking out.

Fortunately, Uchiha Feiyu possesses Space-Time Ninjutsu, and in just over ten minutes, he arrived at the Land of Frost battlefield through rapid space-time leaps.

On the battlefield of the Land of Grass, the Leaf commander is Uchiha Fugaku, and the main force is the Uchiha Clan, while on the Land of Frost battlefield, the Leaf commander is ostensibly a Hyuga ninja from the main branch; in reality, this Hyuga main branch ninja has no war experience, and the one truly in charge is Hyuga Hiashi's younger brother, Hyuga Hizashi, who serves as the unit's Adjutant.

At the same time, among the thousands of Leaf ninjas here, at least one-third are Hyuga ninjas—and this is only because the Byakugan is used more for support, which is why only this many came.

The number of ninjas in the Hyuga Clan is far greater than that of the Uchiha Clan, approaching nearly a thousand; while there are still some civilians within the Uchiha Clan, the Hyuga are truly a nation in arms.

Likewise, the ninjas of the Cloud Ninja Village were also thoroughly controlled under the imperceptible red light; the current commander of the Cloud Ninja Village, the just-turned-18-year-old Yugito Nii, even though she has become a Perfect Jinchuriki, still sank instantly into the Genjutsu.

So, although the situation looks excellent, whether the Leaf can continue to maintain the upper hand when the weak ninjas are all wiped out and they encounter tough nuts to crack is truly hard to say.

Therefore, those powerful ninjas of the Cloud Ninja Village discovered with frustration that the opposing Leaf ninjas were as slippery as loaches, always escaping without a trace while still far away from them, whereas the mediocre ninjas would be besieged by Leaf ninjas every time they left the camp, suffering heavy losses after a few encounters.

Moreover, as long as members of the Hyuga Clan reach adulthood, they can awaken the Byakugan, and their strength is at least that of a Chunin, so they will never fall to the bottom tier; plus, the survival rate of Byakugan ninjas on the battlefield is arguably the highest, so the number of Hyuga Clan members is also significantly higher than that of the Uchiha Clan.

But the reason the Hyuga Clan can be as famous as the Uchiha Clan, besides characteristics like the Byakugan being easy to awaken, lies primarily in the fact that the Byakugan's scouting and survival capabilities are too high!

On the battlefield, unless one is a powerful Shadow-level Ninja, what determines a ninja's survival or death is never just their strength; it is more often about whether they encounter a ninja stronger than themselves.

This is precisely why this ninja unit only has 1/3 Hyuga ninjas, because having one Hyuga ninja for every three ninjas is already the best configuration.

In terms of strength alone, a Hyuga ninja of the same rank is definitely much weaker than an Uchiha of the same rank; even without counting the highest evolutionary form like the Mangekyo, an Uchiha with just a Three-Tomoe Sharingan already surpasses the Hyuga Clan in strength.

"It seems the Byakugan's effect against Genjutsu isn't all that great either; its resistance is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary ninja."

After clarifying all the circumstances, Uchiha Feiyu immediately deployed an Array Disk across the entire Land of Frost and then began to release the Sharingan Crystal Ball.

It can be said that those dead Cloud Ninja were all at the Genin level, the weakest among the Cloud Ninja; the number of Chunin is likely less than ten, and there is not a single Special Jonin or Jonin.

Of course, since Uchiha Feiyu has already arrived here, there is no need to think about any future wars.

It is just that while the Byakugan is a peerless tool for one-on-one combat and support, it falls short in group brawls; on the battlefield, the turret-type ninjas are still the ones who can exert greater power.

It can be said that if the Hyuga Clan truly hardened their hearts, it would be no problem even if the entire ninja unit currently dispatched by the Leaf were replaced with members of the Hyuga Clan.

There is no help for it; the Uchiha Clan is no different from normal people before they awaken their eyes, but the Hyuga Clan is born with the Byakugan, and they have almost no other path besides being ninjas.

As his consciousness permeated the entire Land of Frost along with the red light in the high sky, Uchiha Feiyu easily perceived all the situations below; even the Byakugan, which claims to have the strongest observation ability, had no resistance at all against the small-scale Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Judging solely from the battle reports, the Leaf is undoubtedly in the upper hand, and the Cloud Ninja have almost no power to fight back, but this is built upon the Byakugan's powerful scouting ability, the result of specifically bullying the weak.

Practice makes perfect; although the area of the Land of Frost is slightly larger than that of the Land of Grass, it is not a problem for the current Uchiha Feiyu. Pale red light fell from the high sky, and in an instant, it had dragged all the ninjas of this country into the illusion.

The greatest ability of a Byakugan ninja is to ensure that the ninjas they encounter do not have strength far exceeding their own, so naturally, their survival rate is much higher than that of ordinary ninjas.

After taking a tour of the Leaf camp, Uchiha Feiyu already understood the current battle situation; in just a few days of small-scale intelligence warfare, the Leaf has lost fewer than two digits of ninjas, while the Cloud Ninja Village is estimated to have already had hundreds of ninjas killed or crippled.

Relying on the super-strong visual range and sensory ability, the movements of the opposing Cloud Ninja are almost transparent to the Leaf here; even though the Cloud Ninja Village even dispatched two jinchuriki this time, they have no way to take advantage at all.

"I didn't expect the Cloud Ninja to have such a Perfect Jinchuriki; it seems the candidate to control the Cloud Ninja has already been found!"

Feeling the nearly indistinguishable aura of Yugito Nii and the Two-Tails Matatabi, a smile appeared on the corner of Uchiha Feiyu's mouth. Being able to become a Perfect Jinchuriki means having at least Shadow-level combat power; in fact, a Perfect Jinchuriki's power even exceeds that of an ordinary Shadow-level.

Although Yugito Nii's exit in the original work was very fast, it can be seen from those few strokes that she was actually in the upper hand at the beginning of the battle against the Immortal Duo, until she was later ambushed by Hidan's Deadly Possession Blood and thus met a miserable end.

If her strength were insufficient, Kakuzu alone would have been enough to give an ordinary jinchuriki a hard time; there would be no need to use such underhanded means.

"It seems that as long as I silently get rid of this guy Killer Bee and slightly support this Two-Tails jinchuriki, the Cloud Ninja Village can fall into my hands."

In the past, Uchiha Feiyu really hadn't thought about Yugito Nii, mainly because this female ninja's age is about the same as Kakashi's; she has only just reached adulthood now, and a few years ago she was only fourteen or fifteen, so she was severely lacking in both strength and prestige, making it impossible for her to inherit the position of Raikage.

But now Yugito Nii has reached adulthood, and after becoming a Perfect Jinchuriki, her strength is sufficient; being able to serve as a commander of a battlefront, her prestige is obviously also definitely not low.

At the very least, she now has the possibility of inheriting the Raikage position, and for Uchiha Feiyu, having this possibility is enough.

Taking out another Hunyuan Treasure Box, Uchiha Feiyu once again arranged illusion stories for the ninjas here in the Land of Frost, while also selecting some ninjas to be sucked into the Hunyuan Treasure Box.

However, this time he was not so ruthless in dealing with the Cloud Ninja Village, only killing about half of the ninjas; as for those Leaf ninjas, he just randomly picked some guys who really had no potential and threw them into the Hunyuan Treasure Box.

"Then the main event comes next..."

Looking at the Hyuga main branch ninja controlled by the Genjutsu, Uchiha Feiyu nodded slightly:

"If I want Yugito Nii to take the top spot, at least I can't let her gain nothing from this battle. Massacring Leaf ninjas will damage the growth of my leeks, but if I can get two pure Byakugan, even if the number of damaged Cloud Ninja is several times that of the Leaf, it shouldn't count as a failure!"

Thinking of this, Uchiha Feiyu reached out directly and dug out the Byakugan from the eyes of that Hyuga main branch ninja, and after thinking for a while, he simply killed the main branch ninja and stored the corpse in a Storage Scroll.

"Ninjas possessing the bloodline of the Otsutsuki Clan are best refined using the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, which can significantly improve one's own bloodline. Although it's useless for me, it is still very effective for my Cauldrons."

Among the techniques Uchiha Feiyu currently masters, the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art is mainly used for ancestral bloodline reversion, the Secret Technique of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art is used to strengthen the physique, and the final Hunyuan Treasure Box is purely for replenishing energy, Qi and Blood, and spirit.

However, whether it is in bloodline, physique, or chakra, as long as he makes a little more progress, he will completely evolve from a flesh-and-blood body into an energy entity, which can also be considered a complete Six Paths, or in other words, an Otsutsuki.

To avoid this situation from happening, Uchiha Feiyu can only slightly suppress himself before collecting more Black Qi offerings and having better cultivation techniques, storing the vast majority of the leeks in the Hunyuan Treasure Box.

However, it would be too wasteful to put ninjas with bloodlines related to the Otsutsuki Clan into the Hunyuan Treasure Box; the Hunyuan Treasure Box has no function of improving bloodlines or changing physiques. Even if you threw a Sage of Six Paths directly into it, it would only decompose him into pure chakra energy, blood-Qi power, and spiritual power.

Therefore, after confirming that he is no longer prepared to continue on the path of reverting to an Otsutsuki, Uchiha Feiyu can also slightly open up some cultivation channels and give the Concubine Group, including Tsunade, a chance.

Putting away the Storage Scroll, Uchiha Feiyu placed the pair of Byakugan into a glass test tube and casually summoned Yugito Nii, handing the test tube directly to her.

Although Yugito Nii is currently under the Genjutsu, she still exudes a cold and glamorous temperament; she has beige straight hair tied into a long braid reaching her waist, and she very obediently reached out her hand to take the glass test tube.

"The Genjutsu can still last for three days... no need to rush."

Gently reaching out his hand to stroke Yugito Nii's cheek, Uchiha Feiyu's hand then fell into her collar.

After rubbing gently a few times, Uchiha Feiyu nodded with satisfaction; although she cannot compare to Tsunade's natural endowment or the cheating of Medical Ninjutsu, this Cloud Ninja's Perfect Jinchuriki is definitely a cut above the rest among ordinary female ninjas.

"It seems that the women of the Cloud Ninja Village are indeed a size larger than those of other ninja villages... That's right, when Kishimoto designed the Five Great Nations, he clearly designed the Cloud Ninja Village as the White-Headed Eagle; the women of that country are indeed physically stronger than those of the yellow race."

Such messy thoughts flashed through Uchiha Feiyu's mind, and then Uchiha Feiyu hugged Yugito Nii and disappeared without a trace after a flash of Space-Time Ninjutsu light.

"Ugh... what is going on?"

In an inn in the Land of Frost, Yugito Nii clutched her head and slowly woke up from the Genjutsu.

She felt as if she had just been fighting against Leaf ninjas on the battlefield, but in the next second, she arrived in a strange room, as if a large chunk of time had been cut out in between.

Waving her hand, Yugito's expression suddenly changed, and she spoke in a low voice:

"Two-Tails Matatabi? Are you there!?"

There was no response whatsoever, and that special telepathic communication ability between a Perfect Jinchuriki and a Tailed Beast had also vanished without a trace, as if there had never been a Tailed Beast inside her body at all.

But Yugito knew that was impossible; once a jinchuriki loses their Tailed Beast, it can be said to be a dead end, and there had been no exceptions to date.

"So... have I been sealed by someone?!"

Waving her arms, Yugito felt the deathly stillness within her body and the chakra that she was completely unable to mobilize, immediately confirming her guess, and her expression grew even gloomier thereafter.

She was the current commander of the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Frost, and also their most powerful trump card; if even she had been captured and sealed by someone without a sound, then what kind of fate would those Cloud Ninja in the Land of Frost meet now?

What kind of powerhouse had Konoha sent? She was a Perfect Jinchuriki, yet she had been sealed and brought here without even noticing a thing...

"Are you awake already?"

The sound of a door opening rang out, Uchiha Feiyu walked through the gate, and looked Yugito up and down:

"You woke up quite quickly... it just so happens there is still enough time now!"

"Who are you? Are you a Konoha ninja? What do you want by capturing me here?!"

Yugito's expression changed; without chakra, and also unable to borrow the power of the Tailed Beast, she was now nothing more than an ordinary woman who could fight a little. She could take on ten ordinary people who didn't have chakra, but any Genin with a bit of combat experience could put her into eighteen different positions!

"You!"

Uchiha Feiyu said one word very directly.
